THOUGHT ESCAPED.
Several Russian Ships May Have Got
Away From Their Pursuers.

st. Petersburg. May 31.-A long ci-
phe rdispatch reached Emperor Nicho-
! das during Monday night, but its con-
tents had not been made public up
10 no noon Tuesday. 1t was unofficial
cially stated that several fast Russian
ships succeeded in shaking off their
pursuers and reach vladivostok. The
government is now in possession of it's
own version of the naval disaster Sat
urday and Sunday in the Straits OF
Korea Nevertheless. 1t appears to be
in a quandary as how to break the
news to the country. A war council
wa held at Tsarskoe- Selo at which the
emperor urged the issue of an imperial
manifesto. So far as the newspapers
are concerned. the public might believs
that Rojestvensky achieved a victory.
The censor passed all vague runners
favorable to the Russians. but blue
pencfled everything Indicating a Rus
sian disaster. While the disastrous
news spread like wild-fire by Word OF
mouth over the capital and WIS quick
ly telegraphed privately to big centers
by nti-government leaders. the coun-
try cannot be said to be still in a state
OF Ignorance as to what happened.
Editors of Liberal papers here. being
conversant with the contents OF the To-
kio dispatches. warn their readers III
a roundabout fashion against harbor-
ing false hopses based upon dispatches
which appear in the news columns. The
Bourse Gazette quite openly declares it
TO be sin to conceal the fact that all |
hope of Russia obtaining the mastery
of the sea has vanished. adding: 1.-The |
of the collapse of this hope |
is self-evident."

General Impression In Diplomatic Cir.
clcs Is That This Stupendous
Naval Victory Will Bring
About Peace.

Washington, May 31.-Quick to real
ize the far-reaching effect of Admira
Rojestvensky's disastrous defeat II
the Korean straits, and in keeping will
his promise, announced a long tim,
ago to do all in his power to bring tbs
belligerents in the far east to direct
negotiations at the proper time. Presi.
dent Roosevelt Monday night received
by special appointment Mr.. Takahira
the japanese minister. and a confer
ence followed for the greater part OF
the evening.
Mr.. Takahira called at the white
house shortly after o'clock, and was
Immediately received.
Count Cassini. the Russian ambassa-
dor, said that he expected to see the
president before the week is over. and
Baron Sternberg. the German ambas-
sador, who was early at the Russian
embassy Monday. where he remained
Tor sometime in conference with the
ambassador. is constantly in touch
with the president. Through his init
mate acquaintance with Mr.. Roosevelt.
he is at liberty to call at any time.
The German ambassador is observing
a discreet silence. but is thoroughly
posted on both the Russian and Ja-
panese points of view as represented
here.
The conference of Mr.. Takahira at
the white house was not generally
known here. At the Interested embas-
sizes and legations during the evening
the opinion was firmly expressed that
President Roosevelt would undoubtedly
lead the neutral nations in the effort to
bring about peace. In to-night's con-
ference it is thought that the presi-
dents first object was to ascertain on
what basis Japan can discuss the ques-
ton of peace.
At the Russian embassy Count Cas-
sini while naturally greatly depressed.
expressed the belief that when fuller
details came in it would be found that
Rojestvensky had saved a part of his
squadron and that his passage of the
straits had been accomplished not
without inflicting great damage on the
opposing fleet. Talk Of peace is pre-
mature" he declared. IF the victory
be as stupendous as the Japanese
would have the world believe. the neu-
trail powers can scarcely wish for Japan
to be allowed to remain without taste
of defeat. Much as I should welcome
an end of the war for some reason my
belief is. that the effect of Rojestven-
sky's defeat will be the indefinite pro-
longation of the war. Russia must |
fight on perhaps for years, but until |
the tables are turned"
At the japanese legation Minister
Takahira had earlier in the day ex-
pressed his keen satisfaction at the
victory Of Togo. 81 cannot estimate
he effects OF this battle" he said.
until the final reports are received:
until we know Roiestvensky's fate.
Ask Russia. not Japan. If the hour of
peace has arrived. Our feet is still
pursuing the enemy. 1t is to Russia.
not TO Japan. that the initiative to-
ward peace is to be looked for"

UNDER THE GAMBLING LAW.
Question of Liability of Race Book
makers to Be Settled.

Ezra P. Collins, former member of the
police force, was defendant in the Police
Court yesterday in case alleging a vio-
lation of section 500 of the code, which re-
lates to gambling. 1t is charged that he
made handbooks on the races. Attorney
w. E. Ambrose appeared counsel in the
case and gave bond in the sum of $500 for
the appearance of his client, with Maj S.
H. Walker as surety. A jury trial was de-
manded and the case was continued.
There are four other such cases pending
in the Police Court in which jury trials have
been demanded. The arrests in those cases
were made by Precinct Detectives Mullen
and Grant who also figured in the Collins
case Police officials have been anxious 10
force the alleged violators of the law 10
trial in the Police Court, but, it is alleged,
did not meet with much success In the
cases in which arrests were made last year
1t is said the five defendants who are now
under bond will be brought into court next
week and stand trial.
Attorney Campbell Darlington represents
four of the defendants, and, 1t Is stated
will make a legal fight in one of them In
order to have the court pass specially upon
the legal phase of the case. 1t Is the claim
of some of the people interested in the
handbooks that the business does not come
within the scope of the gambling law ana
that they have a right to do business upon
commission The case will be watched with
more than ordinary concern by many.
Should the Police Court judge hold that
the law has been violated and conVlctioh
is obtained, the case will probably be taken
to the Court of Appeals. Some of the people
interested in the question are confident that
they will win the case and they will then
be able to open offices and conduct business
without fear Of being molested On the
other hand the police are confident that
they will win and will then be able to put
a stop to the business.
