Emperor Nicholas
Sends Sympathy

London, Oct. a6.-The inevitable de-
lays of diplomatic procedure appear to
retard a complete and satisfactory set
tween Great Britain and Russia, aris-
ing from the deplorable North sea af-
fair. King Edward has received from
Emperor Nicholas himself q cablegram
expressing the deepest regret and a
practical acknowledgment that Great
Britain's peremptOry note will meet
with the reply coneeding every demand
for apology for the act of aggression
against the British tag, compensation
for suffers and punishment of tho Off
GERS Irresponsible for what is every
where conceded to have been a gigantic
blunder, and the Russian ambassador
TO the court of st. James has expressed
to Foreign Minister Lansdown his sor-
row and sympathy.
These developments, which came
late in the day, have allayed to some
extent the deep resentment in the pub
lie mind, and the admiralty tonight
gave evidence of its appreciation Of the
necessity Of proving that it is prepared
actively to support the position Of the
people Of Great Britain and 70 fulfil
the expectations OF the world, when it
issued the following statement:
Son receipt ON October "a Of the
news TO the North sea tragedy, prelimi-
nay orders for mutual support and CO.
