six Thousand Troops May Go.

Paris, February 9.-The ministry of marine positively denies the report that preparations are being made for the send ing of 5000 French troops to the far east
 The various political groups have de- cided not to take any course likely to embarrass the government during the present crisis. The nationalist members of the chamber of deputies met and pass ed a formal resolution to this effect which was communicated to the press and NJ. Pressens (socialist) conveyed to Premier Conbes the assurance that the socialists would not create difficulties.
 Subsequently M. Pressens in his capac- ity as reporter of the foreign affairs and budget committees had long conference with M Delcasse, who made the fol- lowing statement:
 "That a state of war did not yet exist, and that 1t possibly would not exist in the future in the event of Japan's con- finirg herself to limited action in southern Korea, this was a reason to make a fresh effort to bring about peaceful solution. and that he had acted in accord- ance with the interests of France and Russia in the direction of conciliation, and that Russia had offered Japan im- portant concessions"
 Interest centers here in the attitude of Great Britain. and it is the general opin- ion, apparently that the war will be con- fined to Russia and Japan.
 The Acton. a government newspaper, says the entente cordial with Great Brit ain which is ridiculed by the nationalists. is the only practical and capable method of limiting the disaster of war to a cor ner of the world.

 The city is overcast with gloom. The only lights in the burned district are those from the smouldering ruins. The only lights in that section which escaped destruction are from corner gas lamps The stores are closed in nearly every street The darkened avenues are full of jostling people talking of one subject. Apparently there is but one cause for gladness and that is that there are none homeless. The residence section of the city escaped. This phase of the situation relieved the officials from any thought other than property.
 At 2 o'clock the Associated Press sent out a bulletin saying the flames would be held In cheek at the Union docks. and
