Russia Will Accede.

Washington, Jan. %. That the
Japanese government has already re-
cieved an intimation that Russia will
partially accede to .Japan's desires in
regard TO Corea is a version OF the
Far Eastern situation received by The
Republican correspondent tonight
from an unusually reliable source.
1t is supplemented by the statement
that Japan Will. however. not relax
the aggressive and impatient attitude,
but will go to the unusual length of
a demand that Russia put assurances
to this effect into the form of treaty
stipulations with Japan.
Five days is named as the outside
limit Of the time for Japan to convey
this practical ultiinatum to Russia.
1t is expected to bring the situation
vely close to war. One unhappy cir
cumstance in this regard is the fact
that the contradicted statement in the
American press that the silent sympa-
thy of officials in Washington. and the
moral support of the public of this
country is with Japan. causes great
irritation in st. Petersburg.
That this does not mean the admin
istration viii relax from the strictest
neutrality is not realized in Russa.
