NEVER, SAYS S s
Russia Will Not Listen to Talk
OF Peace.

A Washington special says: Until
some word comes out OF Tzarskoi Selo,
Nippon has but to fight on" This re-
mark of MI. Takahira, the japanese
minister, made Tuesday night, with the
details Of the Japanese victory before
him, accurately sets forth not only his
opinion, but, it is believed, if Washington
and other neutral governments represent
ed regarding the effect of the battle on
Russia's policy.
Whether Count Cassini, the Russian
ambassador, will be the bearer of that
Hateful word when he visits the president
within a day or two remains to be seen,
but the ambassador, in a conversation
with a correspondent of the Associated
Press Tuesday night, was more emphat-
ic than at any time since the war in the
declaration that the war would go on
indefinitely. While admitting that he
would see the president in the next few
days and have a long conference on the
general situation, the ambassador strong.
ly discouraged any hopes of an early
peace.
Perhaps after Lao Yang there was a
possibility of peace" said Ambassador
Cassini. 81 will say there was an idea
of peace at that time in certain quarters,
but now, after this crushing defeat!
Never! The japanese talk of indemnity.
Russia can better use this money i'll the
building Of another fleet. Certainly this
is not the time when Russia can afford tc
take up the question of peace"
1t is this apparent determination of
Russia to continue in the face of disas-
trous defeats OH land and sea which dis
courages the Washington government at
this time from taking any positive steps
toward offering assistance to the bellig
erents in coming TO an understanding.

on the reservation under eighteen years
of age their share of the proposed pay

1t is asserted that the Indians are
greatly in need Of all the money coming

want and need the money to pay their
debts. They also claim that if the MONEY
is not forthcoming white men who they

MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, May S.-The selling of stocks
i'll New York which carried prices down
ward, today, was mostly for foreign ac-
counts. But the volume of it was not i'm
pressive and the ready effect on prices
may be attributed in large part to the
continued doubt felt toward the market
by operators of any considerable power
or influence. Declines in the government
securities most Immediately affected by
the foreign political situation were moder-
ate and the movement in foreign Securi-
ties markets WAS more restrained than III
New York. Paris was reported to be IL
considerable seller of securities in Lon
don. Discounts hardened in London and
sterling exchange was notably strong
here. Put sterling was also strong at
Paris and the price of gold was reduced
in London.
AS Il net result, the international eX-
changes can scarcely have moved nearer
10 the point calling for exports of gold
from New York. The money rate here
WAS entirely unaffected and was in TACT
rather easier in response to the strong
bank statement of Saturday. The wheat
market made some response 10 the 1or-
eign political situation, but close atteh-
ton was unable to detect any actual Tor
cgn demand here as a result of the lnclp-
lent war scare. Nevertheless, prices OF
stocks broke sharply; number of in
stances showing lower quotations than at
the extreme low level OF last week.
The PacificS, SOuthWeSternS and South
erns were most affected amongst the rail
roads and the iron and steel stocks Were
conspicuous among the industri;ils. Tie
selling. although moderate. was very well
distributed and no part OF the list eS-
capped entirely the prevailing weakness.
The result seems to be conclusive of the
failure of the considerable reduction in
prices which has already taken place to
attract any effective demand. Some sym
pathetic effect must be allowed to the
extreme weakness of the gas stocks. Peo-
pies Gas suffered directly from state leg
islation putting Il ratemaking power into
the hands of the Chicago city govern
ment. The close sympathy manifested by
Consolidated Gas was explained by the
analogy in the situation of the two COM
panieS.
The market was narrow and obviously
largely in professional hands. as was in
Dictated by the light volume of the trans
actions both on the decline and on the
rally. When the operations for foreign
account had been concluded for the day,
the supply of stocks proved scanty for the
needs of the shorts. The Indifference of
the demand again showed itself at the
recovery level of prices and they We're
but poorly held so that the closing was
barely steady.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales. par
value, 81. $50. 900. United States bonds were
all unchanged on call.
