RUSSIA IN BAD WAY.
Fleet Bottled Up and No Chance &c
Combine.

Russia's navy is widely scattered.
A large part Of it is in the Baltic set'
in northern Europe; and strong fleet
is in the Black sea. in southern Eu'
rope, where 1t is effectually bottled up
by the treaty of 1S41, confirmed by
the Paris peace Of 1856.
The Bosphorus connects the Black
sea with the sea of Marmora. and the
Dardaneles connects the sea of Mar
mora with the Mediterranean. BY tbs
terms of the treaty of 1S41 no foreign
ship of war may enter the Dardanelles
except by Turkish permission. There
fore the Russian Black set fleet can
not pass into the Mediterranean and
thence into the Atlantic.
Now that the Russian squadron In
the Pacific has been crippled by the
Japanese, Russia must find way to
strengthen the damaged squadron or
yield naval supremacy to the govern
ment of the mikado. 1t is not surpris-
ing, therefore, to learn that a report
is current in London that Russia Is
trying to arrange with Turkey to per-
nit the Black sea feet to pass the OAR
danelles. Since the consent of Great
Britain will also be needed. there is
no probability that the Russian fleet
will be released. Japan and Great
Britain are bound by treaty to support
each other under certain contingen-
cies. This alliance is particularly di-
rected against Russia, and Great Brit
ain will not consent to the liberation
of hostile fleet which would instant
ly be directed against her friend and
ally.

Intense Interest.
The governments attitude Is await
ed with breathless interest. The mere
fact that a meeting with such pro-
gram was permitted, although Official
auspices were denied it, Is unprece-
dented; but the vigorous character Of
the memorial adopted and the resolu-
ton to push the agitation must compel
the government to act. A parting OF
the ways is again at hand, and the au-
tocracy, 1t would seem, must once
more choose whether the people shall

fed at the mere suggestion Of any
thing approaching a parliament or

fluence already are In the scale; but
no matter which way the balance
swings, the decision is bound to mark
an epoch in Russian history.
The actual participants in the meet
ing are far from hopeful; but they
sincerely believe the salvation of the
country depends on the solution they
have to offer, and have the satisfac-
ton of knowing that, az representa-
tives of the most authoritative provin-
cial institutions of tho empire, they
have once spoken out their views and
have taken measures to have them
spread before the world. as well as the
government which is addressed.

vessel, and with hawser5 made fast to
bow and stern, by their united efforts
are keeping her from being washed
further on the beach. An attempt was
made to float the Sicilian Prince at
food tide, about o'clock Sunday af-

further attempt fail tho 600 steerage
and twelve cabin passengers will be
taken off on tugs and brought to this
