Feeling of Profound Relief.

st. Petersburg, October 2S--( Midnight
There was a feeling of profound relief to-
night in higher government spheres and
diplomatic circles where the knowledge
existed that the grave crisis in the re-
lationship between Russia and Great
Britain over the North sea incident has
been happily avoided by the decision to
submit the issue to a commission to be
created under the articles of The Hague
convention. This prompt and satisfactory
outcome which will insure a definite es-
Establishment of the fact, and locate the
responsibility is attributed in diplomatic
circles mainly to the direct interposition
of Emperor Nicholas and King Edward.
The British government in the face Of
an excited public opinion which was de-
handing the most extreme measures pro-
posed the submission of the issue to
commission under The Hague convention
while the Russian government was pre-
pairing q similar proposition to the Brit
sh government.
Other nations, notably France, and it is
believed here the United States were using
all their influence to avoid catastrophe,
Definite assurance of settlement came
this evening when the emperor at an au-
dience with Foreign Minister Lamsdorff
announced his complete and hearty APP
prevail of the plan for an International
Meanwhile orders had already been
sent to Vigo to detain the ships which
participated in the firing on the British
trawlers until detailed arrangements for
procedure could be agreed upon.
In the end, both governments seemed
to be striving for the honor of the first
poposal of this method of settlement of
the questions at issue. The drafting of a
modus vivendi probably will require some
time.
Pu5lic Is Still Ignorant.
The Russian public has as yet had no
intimation of the solution reached. Fo-
the past forty eight hours the people and
newspapers have been greatly aroused.
Jingoism was rampant and the direct
charge was repeatedly made that Great
Britain was privy to a contemplated at
tack upon the second Pacific squadron.
The people without counting the cost,
talked lightly and even joyfully of the
prospect of war with the traditional enemy
at whose doors the public mind lays so
many of Russia's faculties.
Fortunately, however at no time was
this feeling felt in the higher or respon-
sible circles, where the gravity of the
affair was fully realized. and where it
was believed that the honor of Russia de-
handed the most complete and searching
inquiry to establish before the world
whether a blunder had been committed,
and If so, to fix the responsibility.

CROWD MORE LIVELY.
The Carnival Shows Did a Rushing
Business Last Night.

There was a decided impetus given
to the hilarity at the street fair yes
terday afternoon and last night The
crowd seemed to be more lively and
there were more individuals who were
clearly out for good time. The usual
carnival sports last night were in full
swing and confetti was plentifully
sprinkled about, while the various
shows were we'll attended
The esplanade presented a lively ap-
pearance until Ii o'clock last night and
the spielers were kept busy directing
the visitors to the best attractions that
were to be seen. The animal show,
the dog and pony circus and the sta
dunn were all we'll patronized. The
performance in the stadium Is well
worth seeing, and, in fact, nearly all
the shows seem to be pleasing the
people.
This is the last day of the carnival,
and it Is expected that the largest
crowds of the week will be on hand
this afternoon and tonight.

STATEMENT AT BESSEMER

Selma. October 28.-(Special )-Sel-
mians have been watching the news
papers for the reply of Candidate Tom
Heflin to the telegram sent him by
Capt. R. P. Hobson, which the latter
stated in his speech in Bessemer
Wednesday night he had sent to Mr..
Hefiin.
1t is understood here from Captain
Hobson's speech in Bessemer that he
earnestly urged in his telegram to Mr..
Heflin that he withdraw from the race
for congress in favor Of the democrat
receiving the next highest vote in the
primary. Captain Hobson is further
quoted as having said in his telegram
that he knew such a step would be a
great personal sacrifice to Mr.. HELM,
but that We were at critical juneture,
fraught with danger to the south, and
that he would render a signal service
to the party. state, the south and the
country by taking such a step.
Those who know Mr.. Hef1in here are
eager to see what he will reply to the
advice gratuitously given by Captain.
Hobson, and II would not surprise them
ii he did intimate to the captain
that his interference was not only I'M
called for but impolite to say the least
of it, Captain Hobson is quoted as
having further said in his speech that
he advised some action being taken by
the State Executive committee. That
there is little likelihood of the latter
none can doubt.

About the Admiralty Report.
In view of Mr.. Balfours scathing ne
nunciation of Admiral Rojestvensky, it
is interesting to note that in the Russian
view he could be in no way held RESPONSE
BILE, though he has generously assumed
the responsibility. The British public
throughout the week have been crying for
Rojestvenskys head, but Russia has firm
ly pointed out and Lord Lansdowne has
acquiesced that he is not one of those
individuals who could be described as di-
rectly concerned in the firing on the
trawlers, being out of signal distance.
There was never, to again quote Count
Beckendorff, any question of apology
and compensation. These were freely con-
coded as announced by the Associated
Press early In the week. The only APP
proaeh to a hitch occurred in connection
with the question of guarantee of pun
ishrment When those differences ap-
peared acute, the whole situation was
changed by the appearance of Rojestven-
sky's report. That was obviously made
in good faith. 1t is possible our admirals
subordinates made the mistake; neither
he nor they are infallible. That they
made a mistake in hitting trawlers, is OBJ
vious that they were mistaken in be-
lieving they saw torpedo boats remains
to be proved. But if they are not infalli-
BILE, how much less SO are the fishermen?
The British government said 1t was i'm
possible for torpedo boats to be where the
Russians thought them to be. The state
ments on both sides absolutely eonflicted.
and so there was no other way of deter
mining that point than by arbitration.
As a friend Of peace. America Will, 1 am
sure, welcome that decision which was
arrived at after negotiations which in
themselves were of nothing but the
frendliest character.

Louis newspapers. There has b5en more delay in installing all the exhibits and generally in getting the exposition ready than had been expected. This is due to the congestion of traffic on the srailroads and in getting the materials transferred to the fair grounds. The transfer business was given to a con- cessionaire known as the General Ser vice company, which has been found to be unable to keep up with the work cut out for it.
 At the time Mir. St. Claire left St. Louis the education exhibit of Ariozna. had not been received. MT. St Claire though had seen a considerable part of it after its collection here and he be- lieves that it will compare favorably in every respect except size with the ex- hibits from the other states and terri tories.
 The Arizona building will be complet- ed this week. It was found necessary to make it twice as large as was first intended and when it is finished it will be a small but very attractive place with sodded grounds and shrubbery about it. It has been fitted with chairs and sofas and a man is in charge to give visitors pleasant welcome.
 The commission did not intend in the beginning to put any money at all into a building. It realized that it could not enter into an architectural competition

with the other states and territories and it believed that quarters in lieu of a building could be secured in the Inside Inn. But the commission was unable to secure quarters anywhere and was compelled to put up a building. It was done with the least possible expense so that more money could be saved for the four exhibits and so that there would still be enough money left to take the exhibits to the Lewis and Clarke exposition.
 Mir. St. Claire said that on the date of the official opening of the fair not more than sixty per cent of the build ings of the states and foreign govern ments had been finished and many of them are not finished yet. All of the ex hibts are not yet installed.
 At the time he left, the paid ad- missions to the fair grounds averaged between B, ,OO0 and 40, 0CO Tn addition to these there are employees and others holding passes to the number of about this will be the greatest fair ever held in the world. The attendance will soon be tremendous, but all who attend will be taken care of. St. Louis is a good entertainer. Prices are not unreason- ably high. The visitor may make h:s stay there as expensive as he pleases, but at the same time he may live com fortably and see things with a very req sonable outlay.

ARIZONA AT THE FAIR
Return of Secretary St. Claire From
 St. Louis.

Secretary F. P. St. Claire, of the worlds fair commission for this terri tory, returned on Sunday from the great exposition where he went to assist in the installation of Arizona's exhibits. MT. St. Claire says that the showing made by this territory will be a very good one and that great benefit will un- doubtedly result.
 Only the mining exhibit is complete and in it's place. Shortly before he left St Louis the work of installing the fruit exhibit was commenced. There was a carload of oranges, lemons and grape fruit. The lemons and grape fruit were put on exhibition first and attracted the most favorable comment by the newspapers. The greater part of the fruit is being kept in cold storage and it will be brought out as it is needed so that it will always have the appearance of freshness. As the season advances this exhibit will be increased by fur ther shipments from the territory.
 The agricultural exhibit is also being put in place and that has also been given great deal of space by the St.
