London April l9.-The Times, edi-

Russia is proposing to go to the length
of outrunning all reason and recalls
the fact that a Times dispatch boat
was stopped ana searched by a Rus

ton was made then, while the japan
ese. authorities were not Interested in
any way, The Times says:
"It Is doubtful whether in the pres.
ent condition Of their feet the Rus
SLAMS would be able to execute the
threat. but if chance delivered the
wireless telegraph boat into their
hands they could attain the desired
end without perpetratiug what the
civilized world would cell an outrage.
We would raise an objection TO the
severest censorship exercised in ac-
cordance with the principles recosniz-
ed by modern warfare The Russians
will find the application Of scientific
discoveries to modern requirements
cannot be checked BY means which
may be effective within the region
