Queen Hess, Wardrobe.

djRoyal annals have never recorded o
more varied and extensive wardrobe
than that which belonged to the "vir'
gin, queen," Even at the age of sixty
eight, when she might be supposed to
have outlived her youthful vanity, she
possessed % complete official cos
tunes, 100 French gowns. 100 robes
with trains and 81 without, 1875 an
tique dresses. 1856 bodices. 125 tunics
not to mention such ltrifies as 06 man
ties. 50 dressing gowns and % fans.
d 1t is possible that she had an ugly
foot. for she. possessed only nine pairs
of shoes, which, considering her ex-
travagances in other articles of ap-
parel, must have some meaning. AT
her death 5000 articles were found
duly catalogued in her wardrobe which
had adorned her proud person. ,t,o,.

churia.

London. Feb. 20. - The latest ad-
vices of Baron Hayashi, the Japanese
minister to Great Britain, led him to
believe that the Japanese troops may
now wait possibly two or three months
before undertaking aggressive opera
tiOns in Manchuria. He said:
1--WE have found that Russia is so
Unexpectedly unprepared that | should
not be surprised ii the japanese land
forces contented themselves with es-
tablishing a thorough organization and
advancing as the construction OF the
railroad towards the Yalu river pro-
crosses. Russia appears to be less
prepared than was China in 1895. |
believe that only three trains day
can be run through Manchuria. Sup
posing these are equally divided be-
tween troops and supplies, as would
be necessary, Russia could not per-
ceptibly strengthen her land forces be-
fore April Japan's naval coup has
been so unexpectedly successful that |
rather think our troops will take their
time. The shallow inlets are now froz-
en- over, retarding the decentralization
of our forces. This is essentially
true at Port Arthur, where near
landing of troops is impossible owing
to ice.
The minister credits the Russians
with having barely 100000 troops in
Manchuria.

Officials Claim They Are Aiding and
Abetting High Treason.
st. Petersburg, Feb. 23.-The Rus
sian government has just ordered the
expulsion of all Jewish residents from
Tomsk, Omsk, Irkutsk and other towns
along the Transsiberian railway. The
Russian officials maintain that the
Jews throughout the Russian domin-
ions are aiders and abettors Of high
treason.
The Jews in Siberia, they affirm,
would find means to betray the mill
tary secrets regarding the transporta-
tion and disposition Of troops to Japan.
These accusations the Jewish leaders
declare to be base calumnies. Never
theless the order is to be carried out.
Not only will the Jews be expelled
from their homes throughout Siberia,
but the Russian government refuses
to allow them to return to European
Russia by the railway. The excuse
is made that the railroad is reserved
for military purposes. The unfortunate
Jews will therefore be compelled to
tramp on foot to Europe.

SATISFACTION AT TOXIC.

Toxic, Feb. 23.-The assurance Of
France that the Russian feet, except
twoo torpedo boat destroyers, which
have been disarmed and will be re-
tanned until the war ends, have left
Jibutil, French Somaliland, reached
Toxic during the day and produced
feeling of general satisfaction. The
government is confident of the inten-
tion of France to refrain from permit
ting the Russians to use Its ports as
bases for naval operations. The re-
animation of French neutrality is
highly reassuring to the present dip
lomatic situation. 1t is of the opin-
ion here that the maintenance Of neu-
trality Of the Oriental ports is ex.
tremely advantageous to Japan, as it
1nsures her mastery of the naval sit
uation and limits the Russian source
of supply to the Transsiberian railroad.

ELAN CLAIMS CASE.
VERDICT FAv0RS BLOCKADING POWERS

TIES AT TWO PORTS.

Hague. 23.-The arbitra-z
ton tribunal which has been consid-
ering the claims of the blockadlng
powers for preferential treatment OF
the. claims against Venezuela has
decided unanimously that the three
blockading powers, Great Britain, Ger
many and Italy, have the right to
preference of~30 per cent Of the Gus
toms duties at Guayara and Puerto Ca
bello, the litigants to pay their own
costs in the procedure and divide
equally the costs Of the tribunal. The
United States is commissioned to car
ry out the decision OF the tribunal
within three months.
In the decision the United States is
charged merely to supervise the car
rying out of the decision regarding
costs.
After the delivery of the decision.
President Muravieff (the Russian min
lister OF jus1ice) in short speech de-
clared that the findings had been
reached after a most minute and most
impartial Investigation. Like all hui
man acts, he added, the decision was
susceptible to criticism, but now it was
made everyone should accept It, The
arbitration begun in times Of peace,
had ended amidst the sinister acts of
war, which was a terrible obstacle in
the path of light and progress.
The president concluded with saving
that The Hague arbitration tribunal
remains always the rampant of justice,
truth and reason and the sublime hope
OF the future.
