purpose of considering the impor-
tant question OF the pollution and

something to prosecute those who

it would be money well spent.

few month, ago, the defendants in

hogsheads of leaf and that he tooS IA
sample from each hogshead to sell
from and the tobacco was sold. II
subsequently developed, the petition
claims, that some one mad gained &C.

better grade samples than those taken
from the hogsheads, and Of course
when the leaf was sold, brought a bet

however. there are those in high guar

close on the basis Of arbitration IL
such a proposition came directly from
japanese Indeed It is even intimat-
ed that Iansdowne's suggestion may
have been inspired from Toxic.
Russia has announced again and
again that no proposition from an
uninterested power would even be
answered, but chat any proposition
ram Japan direct, no matter through
what Intermediary, would be consid-
cred.
A proposal from japan to arbitrate
the controversy would appeal strong
ly to Emperor Nicholas. He is ex-
ucmely proud of being the author OF
The Hague conference and in spite
81 the difficult position in which Rus
sian military prestige would be left
by the cessation OF hostilities at this
uncture, those competent to judge
actually entertain the belief that such
