DIPLOMATS DON'T EXPECT WAR
Russia's Answer viii Be Handed To
Jananese Minister In a Few Days.

japanese Minister In a Few Days.
s. Petersburg. Jan. diplomatic
circles confidently expect that the
Russian answer 70 the japanese pro
posals will be handed 10 the Japanese
foreign ofice by Baron de Rosen, Rus
sian ambassador TO Japan, within a
few days, and do not expect grave re-
suits 10 follow.
In other quarters the conciliatory
attitude OF both governments inspires
belief that the answer will pave the
way TO further negotiations II, indeed
It does not directly lead to pacinc
settlement OF the trouble.
The characteristic note In the press
IS the doubt about the attitude Of the
United States in the event OF a war
between Russia and Japan.

rate upon American power in the Paci'

of the United States in the East Ash

Rus. new journal made up OF the
former employees Of the Novoe Vremya,

The Novoe Vremys expresses in-will
towards the United States in a long
leader about the alleged instructions
given American consuls In Russia TO
report on the prospects OF renewed
anti.semitlc disorders. and in a curious
editorial opposes the sale OF the Man
/ churian railway. whether 10 the United
States or 10 China, which, It declares
is advocated IN some quarters here.

London. Jan. 4.-No news has been
received by the japanese legation. or
apparently by the foreign office. con-
cerning the Russo-Japanese difficulty
In the Far asst. and according to Baron
Havashi. the japanese minister, the
situation remains unchanged.
Within a few days the cruisers ka-
saga and Niasin, formerly the Morono
and Radavadiya. respectively, which
were bought by the japanese govern
ment from the government Of Argen-
tina and which were built at Genoa,
will be formally delivered to Japan
Immediately on their delivery the Jap
anese flag will be run up and the Jap
anese legation hopes thereby TO avoid
any objections on the part OF the ltal
ian government regarding the sailing
Of the cruisers, should hostilities com
mence before they are ready TO put
10 sea.
No little excitement prevails among
the officers OF the British homo squad
ron. who are under the impression that
they may at any mament be ordered te
replace tho channel squadron which
would be sent to the Mediterranean
should the government deem ii advis
able to strengthen its naval force in

Believe War Inevitable.

Pekin. Jan. 4.--In the various foreign
legations here the opinion is prevalent
that war between Japan and Russia Is
inevitable. This opinion is based on
the latest dispatches from Toxic and
on the conviction that II is not a ques-
tion Of detail which separates Russia
and Japan. but the vital principle as
10 whether Japan possesses the right
10 a voice IN the settlement OF ques-
tions connected with the Russian occu-
patton OF Manchuria. Russia all along
has denied this right, and unless her
reply shows that she has receded from
this position, which II not expected 70
be the case II probably will provoke an
ultimatum from Japan, whose deter
miuation to resort to arms Ia support
OF her claim is upQuestioned.
