RUSSIANS APATHETTC.
Mass of People Opposed to Var
Submarine Boat Rights.

Moscow, Jan. Notwithstanding the rumors
of movements on the part OF the Russian and
japanese armies and nayies. war is not consid-
cred likely here. The "Vedomosh." which reflects
the opinion OF influential merchants and the ed
ucated middle class. says:
1t is more important for Russia to foster in
ternal developments and husband her resources
for a weightier purpose than TO seek the acqui-
sition of a Yellow Russia, involving enormous
expenditures and prohting only adventures
The paper ridicuies the reports OF the depre-
citation Of Japanese strength and says:
She has five millions OF men nearer the scene
than Russia's million. Japan is better armed
and equipped and has powerful hackers. Rus
sla cannot profit by victory. and the results of
her defeat would be appalling to the country.
Another paper says It is announced that Rus
STA has acquired the rights for the Holland sub
marine torpedo boats. and adds that 1t consid-
ers "this will render the building Of costly bat
tleships unnecessary"

noent Included.

Havana Jan. 1.-THE Senate. after clearing
legislative business and being in readiness to
adjourn until the spring, rushed the ratification
OF the so-called permanent treaty with the

vote was taken simply by show OF hands and
without rollcall.
Sefor Recio. Nationalist. demanded to be re-
corded in the negative. while others requested
TO be recorded affrmatively.
The treaty includes all the provisions OF the
Plat amendment verbatim. This was the prop
osition OF the Cuban government, made because
OF the desire eventually to eliminate the amend
ment from the constitution and so remove the
cause of the constant criticism of the makers OF
the constitution for accepting such an amend
ment from the United States II Is regarded as
immaterial whether the requirements and
strictions Of the Plat amendment be continued
in the form OF constitution or OF a treaty
The treaty was signed on May 22. 1903. but
was not ratified with the other treaties between
the United States and Cuba at the close of the
last session OF Congress. The Committee on For
eign Relations held up the treaty until to-day
and then reported It by order OF the Senate
There apparent opposition by the mem
beTs of the committee but the committee APP
peared afraid OF the possible political effect Of
its action. The report recommended the adop
ton Of the treaty, stating that it would not
change the political status or the relations be-
tween Cuba and the United States in any man.
