London, Jan. THE party of ma

They embarked at Liverpool on board

be transported by rail to the Pacific
coast. Another draft of Scotch engi-

sightseers, who manifested great en-

Chicago, Jan. 1.-The overwhelm.

Fire Inspector Monroe Fulkerson.

his duty of closing the metal reflect

and wired SO they could not open. e..

result that there was instant relief

RUSSIA DOES NOT FEAR WAR.

Admiral Aiexieff's Paper Comments on
Present Crisis.
st. Petersburg, Jan. IA dispatch
from Port Arthur says the RussoJap-
anese crisis is commented on by Vice
roy Alexien's organ, the Nova Kraige,
as follows: ID
%No threats can make Russia aban-
don her legitimate rights In Manchu-
ria or in Korea. The interests Of Rus
STA and Japan can be reconciled with
out violating that country's (Korea's)
sovereignty. The outcome of the ne
gotiations depends on the number Of
ironclads at Port Arthur and of troops
in Manchuria. Russia does not fear war,
but she does not desire it, and, there
fore, is seeking to render it impossi-
ble."
