st. Petersburg, Nov. 25.-Appear-
ances again point to the possibility of
a big battle south of Mukden The
Japanese, according to an official re-
port, have received severe setback
in the vicinity of Sintsintin, in which
direction they apparently were at
tempting to execute a wide turning
movement. Military opinion here
scarcely believes it possible that the
two great armies can winter less than
a rife shot distance from each other,
though the heavy defenses on each
side make it extremely difficult for
either to assume the offensive. 1t is
believed, however, that if the dead
lock is to be broken General Kuropat-
kin will let Field Marshal Oyama take
the initiative, as the Russians have
the better Of the present position,
namely, a strong line of defense, and
Mukden behind them, making satisfac-
tory winter quarters, where the Rus
sian reinfOrcements are now accumu-
lating for an advance next spring. The
Japanese also are being strongly rein
forced. The rivers are already frozen
suffi GENTLY to permit of the movement
of artillery and commissariat trains,
so that the country actually is better
adapted to a Japanese. advance than
during the summer.

Ferryboat Upset and Passengers All

Port Huron, Mich, Nov. 25.-The
rowboat of William Briggs, the night
ferryman between this city and Sar-

St. Clair river from here, was upset
near the Sarnia dock early in the day
and four men from st. Thomas, Ont,
who we're passengers, were drowned.
Ferryman Briggs left the Port HUI
ron dock with six passengers in his
rowboat. A heavy sea was running
on the river, kicked up by the strong
north wind that was blowing. The
boat pitched and tossed on the waves,
but made the passage safely until
within 100 yards of Sarnia dock Then
a heavy back swell from the shore
suddenly caught the craft and capsized
her. Ferryman Briggs, John Dopson
and Daniel Fisher saved themselves
by hanging to the overturned boat, but
the other four passengers were drown

NEW COMMERCIAL TREATY..
Russian Paper Favors One With the
United States,

st. Petersburg, Nov. 25.-The Bourse
Gazette revives the question of a new
commercial treaty with the United
States. The paper says it notes with
satisfaction that the negotiation of
commercial treaties forms part Of
President Roosevelt's programme for
the coming administration and that
it's consummation is greatly to be de-
sired between Russia and America.
Commercial wars, the Gazette adds, are
in the long run almost as costly and
disastrous as armed hostilities. The
paper says Russia ought to be willing
to meet any American overtures half
way and that the result should be
equally beneficial to both countries.
