St Petersburg April 11.-Exceptionally reli-
able information regarding the Russian military
plan confirms the announcement that these plans
will not mature until late in the summer. They
are of far greater magnitude than is generally
believed abroad. and take into account all pos
siderable contingencies.
General Kuropatkin. remembering the expert
ence of Russia in her war with Turkey. when
the Russian army placed In the field at the be-
ginning had to be more than doubled, has in
sisted that the men and guns to he placed at his
disposal shall cover the extreme limit required
to settle the fate of the campaign.
The Russian plans are based on Napoleon's die
tum that God fights on the side Of the heaviest
battalions." and they are being worked out and
timed so as TO apply TO superiority OF numbers

designed TO number half million at the time
scheduled for the reinforcement OF Vice-Admiral

-Spain's attitude.

St Petersburg April 1.-The news Of the
signing of the Anglo-French colonial treaty was
cordially received here. In responsible Official
circles the understanding between the allies or

Russia from reaping the fruits OF victory

NJ. NelidoY acting on instructions from Count
Iamsdorff has expressed to the Foreign Minis

thorities at st. Petersburg were kept informed
OF the Developments. and that concerning Mo-
rocco and Egypt. Russia congratulated France
on the happy solution. adding:
We are friends and allies OF France AS
friends we rejoice at your successes As allies
we are gratihed at this guarantee OF
French strength and security. We naturally
wish 10 see our ally strong as possible and
with the least possible International Issues
Therefore. as the accord removes numerous vex-
atoms. II is most agreeable TO Russia.
AS indicating that the accord will have the
effect Of improving the relations between Rus
sia and Great Britain. the Ambassador said:

PINS FAITH TO ST. LOUIS.
Mmphy Comedies Hill VII Control
State Contention.

Ex- Senator Hill was in conference yesterday
with ex-Lieutenant Governor William r. Shee-
han and Senator McCarren at the Gregorian. in
Thirty-ffth-st. The three leaders discussed the
local and state situation thoroughly and de-
cided that Tammany must be placated or
bulled.
To placate Murphy the Hill men will between
now and the holding of the State convention
suggest that Mayor Mcclellan accept the NOM
ination for Governor. This. Mr.. Hill knows per-
fectly well, Murphy cannot assent 10. Presi-
dent Fornes OF the Board OF Aldermen, who
would succeed to the MavoraIty. is not suffi-
GENTLY established i'm the good graces and con-
idence of the district leaders to make any such
shift possible To bully Tammany the Hill men
are throwing out hints about the availability of
Jerome for Governor This suggestion is de-
signed TO terroTize the Murphy men and make
them willing to fail into line for the Parker
boom on Monday of next week at the State con-
vention.
There Is no prospect that either Of these sug-
gestions will have any weight with the leader Of
Tammany Hall. He has scented the Hill chloro-
form and he will do his best to prevent the Hill
men from putting him 20 sleep. Mr. Murphy
returned from Atlantic City yesterday forenoon.
He not in particularly pleasant frame Of
mind. He told his friends at the Democratic
Club last night that he expected McCarren
Kings with the exception Of five or six districts.
and that the Hill-Parker combination would win
az the State convention.
Mr.. Murphy comedies these things" said a
member OF the Tammany Executive Committee
the Democratic Club last night, but he will
carry his opposition to having instructed del
egation right into the st. Louis convention.
When he goes to St. Louis he will tell the dele
gates there that while Parker has the delega-
ton from the Empire State he cannot carry the
State against Roosevelt
The Hill men fearful that Murphy will
carry out his threat. and that is why they are
talking about smashing him to pieces at the
state convention There is a strong probability
that if Murphy and Mayor Mcclellan assure the
national convention delegates that Parker cam
not carry his State, they viii set in motion
a host of sentiment that may overwheim the
Parker boom. Hill and McCarren are conscious
Of this danger and that is why Mr. Hill and
August Belmont are holding secret conferences
around the STATE.
Charles F. Murphy denied the rumor that at
the St Louis convention ne would present reso-
buttons calling for the nomination OF ex-Presl-
dent Cleveland.

FIRING 1T NEW-CHWANG.
Forts by Mistake Open on Merchant
meR-T1cO Chinese Killed.

New-Chwang. April 11.-An Official explana-
ton was issued to-day OF the firing OF guns from
the forts here last night which caused a GER
tain amount of excitement and the killing Of
two Chinese.
officers Of the garrison did not understand the
system Of customs flash signals In use at the
mouth Of the river. for the purpose of signal
ling the depth Of tire water on the bar. TO
enable ships to put 10 sea. and that fire
opened last night on some pilot boats and oUt-
ward bound merchantmen
These vessels were sighted by the forts some
time after midnight. and at lz:3O the artillery
opened on the vessels. twenty -four shots be
ing fired. including projectiles from large guns
The firing caused excitement among the troops
and a sentry fired on and killed two Chinese
sampan men opposite the foreign settlement
three miles from the forts. The two Chinese
had become alarmed at the firing and endeav-
ored 10 cross the river.
In view of tho reports received here Of Japa-
nese activity In Corea and Of the arrival OF jap
anese troops on the Yalu River, IT is understood
that the garrison had been warned that it was
possible the japanese would make attack on
this place. and the citizens hearing the firing.
naturally supposed that the attempt was being
made last night.
Che-Foo April 11.-A Chinese steamer has
Just returned from New-Chwang The port
pilots would not respond to her signals for Them
to take the vessel up the river. Two British
steamers found themselves in the same predca-
