WARSAW SITUATION SERIOUS.
Causing the Greatest Anxiety in All
 Circles.

Warsaw, Feb. 2S.-The situation here is causing the greatest anxiety in all circles. The assistant to the governor general, who was interviewed to-day frankly admitted that the government is at a loss to know what to do. Alarming reports are current concern ing the intentions and plans of the revolutionary party, and March 4 is awaited with much apprehension. The strike agitation is spreading in every direction, and bank clerks, journalists, office servants, printers, pressmen' drivers, stationary engineers and me, chanies in general are all threatening to strike. Notwithstanding all this the situation in this city is remarkably quiet l...s .s.....- .
 The Vienna railway is still complete ly at standstill, and there appears to be no hope Of the speedy settlement of the difficulty. The directors had a long session today, but were unable to find o solution. They will renew the conference tomorrow.

Commercial in- terests and private individuals are much inconyenienced. N
 The city is threatened with a coal famine, the entire supply of coal com, ing from the district of Dombrova over the Vienna road. The governor general has ouered to supply military men to work the trains, but this is i'm practicable, as the strikers have de- stroyed switches. Many through pas sengers from Moscow and St. Peters burg are detained here, and great quantities of perishable goods from France and Italy are being utterly de- stroyed by the delary.
 A telephone message from Lodz says the workmen in most of the factories there have returned to their labors; but as the big mills are only paying the old wages while the pay of the men in the small mills has been increased, it is feared that the improvement is only temporary. I

A government that would crave peace of Russia's enemy while still capable of winning victory, would be giving the party of change genuine grounds for a revolution The facts of the military situation, love of country and arguments of expediency were all against peace and for pressing the war hopefully.

NORTH SEA UMpIRES
 CONCLUDE THEIR WORK
FIgALLY AGREE ON REPORT TO
 BE MADE SATURDAY.

Infermation from Most Authoritasfvs
 Source that When the Text is Known
 it VIII be Far More Acceptable ts
 Great Britsin-Enort Ha. Been Ia
 Preserve Russia's Self Respect---De-
 cision as sIarter of Fact Said to Fa-
 yor British.
 Paris, Feb. 2s.-The international commission appointed to inquire into the North Sea incident practically con- cluded it's work tonight by finally agreeing to the report which will be publicly announced at the closing ses- sion to be held at o'clock next Sat- urday. Concerning the general nature of the report the following statement was made in most authoritative quar- ter to the Associated Press:
 When the text of the decision be- comes known it will be far more ac- ceptable to the British press and pub lie than they have been led to believe. The semi-official summaries appearing. while more or less accurate, tend too strongly to show Russian success, but as matter of fact the admirals have sought a middle ground and the de- cision is not pronounced victory for either side. It is of such character as to preserve Russia's self-respect and at the same time give the British pub Jif1 fr,.. anything, the decision is rather more favorable to Great Britaian than to Russia
 On the other hand the Ha.vas Agency tonight confirms its semi official state- ment of last night. It says:
 The conclusions as a whole are quite favorable to Russia, recognizing that Admiral Rojestvensky could legitimate- ly consider himself in danger and act as he did However. the report con- .taills reservation calculated to satisfy British susceptibilities, the most inpor- tant being that the commission esteenls that the Russian fire lasted too long and also that Rojestvensky should have speedily notified the British maritime authorities of the deplorable incident
 Upon the question of the presence of torpedo boats the commission frees all navies from the irnputation.
 The commission rejected a motion of Admiral Beaumont (Great Britain) blaming the Russian crews.
 The conclusions are said to be in the form of questions whereto the comrnis- sioners state their answers either unarl- ifnously or as a majority"
 The American officials are strongly inclined to accept the view first stated. that the decision is more favorable to- Great Britain than to Russia.
 The four foreign admirals gave a. ban-l quet tonight in honor of the presiding officer, Admiral Fournier (France). Tha latter will return the compliment or Saturday. President Loubet will give a luncheon in honor of the commission at the Elysee palace Sunday.

Appears Destined to Become an rnstI- y tuition in Denmark.

Copenhagen, Feb. 2S.The whipping post for thugs appears destined to be- come an institution in this country in the near future. The minister of jus tice has reintroduced in the Rigsdag the bill, which was defeated at the last session, providing for the establishment of the whipping post, In the last ses- sion the bill was bitterly assailed even by the ministerialists. The minister of justice, however, caused to be widely circulated President Roosevelt's letter favoring the whipping post for Wife-
