No Information bearing on the military

BOSTON, October 1.-THE triennial Epis-

much interest in the session because OF the
widespread criticism of the appSrtionment

ROASTING IN ST. PETERSBURG.

not Withholding praise for the American
spirit of desiring to do things. the Bourse
Gazette today expresses qualification that
president Roosevelts idea of calling a

I'VE hope the Gazette says, that this
will induce the American journals to give
up the discussion OF unsolicited intervention
in the Russo-Japanese war in any shape or
form. II is mistake to suppose that we
are longer in the same position as in 1877,

ROUTE OF THE BALTIC SEA FLEET
Announced That 1t Will Not Be Sent
Around Cape Horn

ST. PETERSBURG. October THE ques-
tion of sending the Baltic sea fleet to the
far east by way of Cape Horn is advocated
by a strong party at the admiralty, on the
ground that after passing the Straits of
Magellan its progress could not be dogged
and reported by cable. The Golfers could
rendezvous at the South Sea and other
smaller Pacific islands. The main risk
would be that in the vast stretch the yes
sells might be beaten off their track and
the danger of serious breakdown of some
of the ships. although the transport Kam-
chatka is equipped with appliances for the
making of extraordinary repairs.
