Russian Papers More Friendly.

st. Petersburg. March 5.-The Rus
sian press halls with great satisfaction
the American dispatches of the last
few days. as indicating a change in the
disposition OF the Washington govern
ment toward Russia. The Bourse Ga
zette and the Novoe Vremya this
morning discuss in a sober-minded
fashion Russo-American relations and
the danger of a permanent estrangea
ment. The Gazette says there is some'
thing profoundly regrettable in the
present relations between these two
world powers, adding:
They transcend the bounds of com
mon logic. The position taken by
America since last June and the anti
Russian newspaper campaign in the
United States are so ineXplicable that
they seem like n nightmare. Since the
beginning of its history America has
inspired the liveliest feelings OF friend
ship and admiration among Russians
and diplomatic and political express
sions of these feelings have been con
tinuous and constant. In Russian So
cial circles there has ever been YER
table worship of the classic land of
liberty and the Americans have always
heretofore made Russian friendship
the cornerstone of their foreign pol
icy.
Suddenly. as If an evil spirit had
broken loose, the Americans. despite
their practical turn of mind, begin to
do everything to stimulate Japanese
aggressiveness. and seem now to be
anXiously awaiting japanese victories
in Asia. where important American
commercial interests are centered. As
matter of fact, hostilities between
the United States and Russia would
be as great misfortune to civiliza-
ton in the twentieth century as was
the rivalry between France and Ger
many in the nineteenth. The duty of
every right-minded man is to arrest
the growth of this animosity."

Mr.. Smith paused for moment, but

Attitude of China.

Paris, March THE official view
here does not share that which is
said to prevail at Washington and in
Berlin that the threatening anti-Rus-
sian attitude of the Chinese Generals
Ma and Yuan Shi Kai. the command
er-in-chief, may lead to a breach of
China's neutrality and compel France
to take action in behalf of Russia.
Reports received here confirm those
which have reached Washington and
other capitals. that the Chinese troops
are showing much activity in northern
China and along the Manchurian bor-
der. They also indicate that bands of
Chinese brigands are taking advan-
tage of the opportunity to resume their
depredations and raids through Man
churia. but the officials here say it is
mistake to connect such action of
irregular Chinese forces with the &C.
tions of the Chinese government.

LIZA SHAKEN BY
AN EARTHQUAKE

Lima, Peru, via Galveston, Texas.
March 5.-This city was visited early
yesterday morning by an earthquake
which killed one. injured many. led
many persons to fee from their homes
into the streets, and felled the wallAI
of many buildings.
The disturbance, which started at
500. lasted about fifty seconds. No
earthquake compared to it has been
experienced in Lima during the last
thirty years.
One of the structures seriously al
fected by the shock was the cathedral.
Its right tower was cracked and much
damage was done to statues and works
OF art.
Scarcely 100 people escaped any
damage.
Doors and windows were opened and
shut by the tremors.
Roofs were dislodged and. pictures,
mirrors and glassware in shops were
destroyed.
The balconies of large part of the
buildings in the city tumbled to the
ground as a result of the shock.
A dispatch from Chorillos says that
the earthquake was more destructive
there than in Lima.
The shock cracked walls of churches
and destroyed pictures, statues and
crockery. 1ic
Windows were broken in almost all
of the houses.

had received a black eye and four OF
his teeth had been knocked loose.
No case tried in Telluride in months

as the one tried to-day. During the
entire trial the utmost interest was
