maintain the purity of our race and

Has Been watching the Manufacture
of Goods Intended for japan.
London. July 2s.-Russia has filed
a formal protest at the Foreign Oaice
against British shipments Of contra
band to japan.
The Associated Press learns that the
Russian government since the begin
ming Of the war has carefully watched
the manufacture Of goods intended for
the use of the japanese government
and as soon as it was established that
such goods were about TO be shipped
to a hostile destination, the facts were
officially communicated to the British
government with the request that
measures be taken to put a stop 70 it..
II is further asserted that in many
cases the government has not taken ac-
ton. and it is understood that when
the war ends Russia proposes to pre-
sent a bill for damages to the British
government. which will offset the in
IDENTITIES claimed for the seizure OF
British steamers.
It is also learned by the Associated
Fress that Russia does not intend TO
hasten the settlement of the question
n the right of vessels OF the volunteer
heet 20 pass the Dardanelles. since If
rezotiations on the subject were con-
Quoted at this time, as desired by
Great Britain Russia might be forced
oy the existing situation to grant con-
-essions she would afterwards regret.
