RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR
LEAVES LONDON

London. Feb. 20 Count Beneckendorff,
the Russian ambassador, left London
today for ST. Petersburg. The afternoon
papers made q sensation out OF his de-
parture, connecting II with rum0rs that
the czar was displeased with his am
bassadors at Washington and London.
and with his minister at Toxic, owing
10 the recent turn Of events and out OF
baseless rumors Of threatening Euro
pean trouble.
The Russian embassy said positively
that Count Beneckendorff had gone to
st. Fetersbr.g for three days to bid
farewell TO his son, who Is going to the
far east with his regiment. The em-
bassy add. that the ambassador
journey was In no way connected with
his position as ambassador, The foreign
ONCE here confirms this.
The uneaslness exhibited on the con-
tinent In regard to the possibility that
a European war may ensue from the
struggle In the far east Is not shared by
Great Britain. No power has made such
complete naval preparation and every
contingency and yet nowhere Is con-
dence greater that the hostlitles may
be confined to Russia and Japan than II
Is In London. The naval and military
preparations announced from continent
tai capitals are regarded here as being
mere c0mmonsenSe measures which any
power must adopt.
II Is also thought that the lull in the
actual war news has led European cor.
respondents [ o employ their spare
time In exaggerating the continental ac-
ton and in applying such steps as have
been actually taken TO erroneous mo-
tiyes, The latest Of these, that Great
Britain intends to seize Spanish ports
In the event OF war has not even the
semblance Of probability.
The Associated Press learns that at
the present moment Spain and Great
Britain are on the verge OF concluding
an arbitration treaty and that IN other
ways their diplomatic relations are
closer than they have been for years
past.
AT the Spanish embassy here II was
emphatlcally declared that the move
ments Of Spanish troops were simply
precautions that all nations must take
when one Of the great powers Is in
volved In war. At the foreign Office
and at the Spanish embassy the belief
Is entertained that no other European
powers will be involved, least Of all
Spain, which has no direct or indirect
interest at stake.
IAN the rumors," the foreign Office
said, that European complications are
In sight are quite baseless."
