Is the Way the Novoe Vremya Views
Dispute With Japan.

ST PETERSBURG. Jaaulry lathe
Russian press. generally speaking. is pre-
serving silence regarding the Chinese
American treaty, and efforts to elicit an
official view have proved unsuccessful.
The Novoe Vrenya. referring to the far
eastern situation declares Russia VIII nos
accept Japan's challenge till ali pe-tceaoie
expedients are exhausted, adding: IF war
comes, Europe should understand that It
viii mark the beginning of 81 eat struggle
between Christianity and heathensm. the
results of which will be felt in all the cor
ners of the earth"
The Russ has begun an open polemic
against war, declaring war would not af-
ford solution of the problem, and that
continuation of Russia's present policy
means the creation of an eastern strategic
frontier requiring the same constant pro-
lection as the western frontier.
The Russ advocates the sale to emma OF
the railway from Hardin to Port Arthur
The paper has treated this suggestion with
great consideration without hitherto taking
a positive stand. 1t is no exaggeration TO
say that the extreme view finds approVal
among the large majority of educated pup
lie of Russia.
