the FIVE steamers sunk at the entrance
to Port Arthur. Merchant sailors vol
unteered for the dangerous undertake

surprised even the japanese.
The steamers did not carry lights
and were not armed and consequently

NJ. Petersburg. Feb. 27.--A dispatch

Washington. That the United States
mad assented 10 an extension Of the
Pacific cable from Manila 10 Japan.
further aggravates the popular tc'ief
that the United States IL siding with
Japan against Russia. The few Amer
leans In st, Petersburg have all re-
marked upon the changed demeanor
shown by their Russian friends.
How deeply the Russians we're
wounded by their belief is shown by the
severance of personalities, Of which a
striking instance occurred this week
when the most intimate Russian friend
OF an American lady declined her
proRered hand. Unon the lady's ex-
clamatIon OF astonIshment her friend
burst into tears and said she felt ag-
grieved at all Americans since the re-
ported action Of the commander OF the

received here today from Washington.
Will put another complexion upon the
vicksburg incident, columns Of the
press for days have been full of ex-
cited comment based on the original
version Of the affair. In spite of the
state Of popular opinion, the govern
ment, Il can be asserted, o,aces the
highest value on American friendship,
and although the course Of American
diplomacy is at times privately viewed
askance. officially the government Of
the czar assumes that the American
attitude has bee strictly correct nor is
the slightest disposition to question its
acts manifested.

STATE MUST BE REIMBURSED,
Attorney General Crawford Renders
Opinion Regarding School Lands.

Opinion Regarding School Lands.
Salem. ore, Feb. Tn response to
a question proponded BY Clerk Of the
State Land Board g. O. Brown ycsteT-
day, Attorney General Crawford rem
dered an opinion in which he holds. In
substance, that II person purchase
indemnity school land from the state
and divest 1t OF Its timber, and there
after 1t Is found that the state cannot
convey title thereto, said purchaser y
entitled to the repayment cf MS pur-
chase price paid to the state, under
section s3lo and ss1l Of the code.
In holding this way, however, the
attorney general goes little deeFer
into the question and adds that, v such
timber is removed from the land and
il Is found that the title thereto les
In the United States. such party re-
moving said timber 10 held accountable
for the same TO the government but
that the government cannot hold the
state liable for such devastation.
In support of this opinion the attnr-
ney- general comments as follows;
"The indemnity was selected by the
state at the request OF the purchaser,
and the case having failed he cannot
get title from the state. The laid Sc
lected was vacant government land
when selected. and under the United
states law no tifn0er should be rerscv-
ed until title was recovered from the
United states. The purchaser haN 'ng
removed the timber from the land
while the title was in the United states
must answer to the owner Of the fee
for the same when called upon. IL fol-
lows that the state must settle with
it's customer the same as though the
timber had not been femoved, unless
the United states can hold the state
liable, and l can see no way in which
that can he dcne."
So far as is known at the present
time there is only one case Of this kind
in existence, the one on which the
question was raised, and in this case
the timber has all been gut, but re-
mains upon the land, owing t lack
of facilities for bringing 1t out.
