AMERICAN ATTITUDE

and Government Friendly

ST. PETERSBURG, April II. A very
marked change in tone toward the United
States is noticeable in the newspapers
which usually voice the opinion of the gov
ernment, many of which dwell on the man
ifestations of friendly disposition at
Washington.
The Novoe Fremya, discussing the ques-
ton of foreign sympathy, remarks upon the
distinction between the attitudes of the gov
ernments and peoples, the French masses
for example, earnestly desiring a Russian
victory, while the French tinanciers are do
ing everything possible to bring about the
conclusion of peace. In the United States.
the paper adds, the people appear to be
hostile, but the government is friendly

Russian Officers Views.

A high-placed admiral expressed to the
Associated Press today the firm conviction
that Admiral Togo would not give battle
near the PescaGore Island, FOrmosa Straits.
He said: 1T would be great tactical err
ror to concentrate his squadron 500 miles
from Japan and run the risk of having
Rojestvensky slip by when by remaining
in home water Rojestvensky must come to
him in order 10 reach his only base, Vladi-
VCstok.
''All the Tokyo dispatches about the proc
lamation of martial law in the Pescadore
Islands and the probable presence of a
Japanese squadron in Formosan waters
were sent as blinds. We do not know
Rojcstvensky's plans. He has worked
them out himself, and knowing the admiral
as l do. his own flag captain was probably
in the dark when he entered the China sea.
We have complete confidence in Roinst-
vensky's resourcefulness. He labors under
disadvantages 50 far as the speed of his
vessels is concerned. but the reports of the
condition of his ships and crews and the
latters skill in gunnery. as shown by their
target practice are better than we consid-
cred possible. and we firmly believe he has
more than a fighting chance of whipping
Togo in an open fight"
The officials here say that no government
dispatches have been received. They have
been privately informed that the Russian
squadron was off the coast of Indo-China
two days ago, but are positive that the
squadron is now further north-probably
sheltering along the coast of Annam This
locality is considered particularly dangerous
owing TO the rocky coast. the currents and
the prevalence Of tropical storms.
The appearance of case of beriberi at
Saigon causes apprehension as the malady
resembles yellow fever and is similarly in
fectiOus.
The halt of the Russian squadron appar-
entity was due to Admiral Rojestvensky's 8
desire to have an opportunity to communi-
cate with St. Petersburg and gather infor-
nation concerning the movements of the
japanese.

for Saturday in Doubt.
Officials Cannot Be Agreed Upon
by the EleYens.
HAVE OTHER DISPUTES
Eligibility of Some of the Indian
Players Questioned.
Both Teams Seem to Be in Con-

Lawrence, kan. Nov. 17.-There is
a bare possibility that the Kansas
Haskell football game scheduled for
Saturday may be called off But owing
to the large prospective gate receipts it
viii more likely be played. Manager
Lansdon Of Kansas and the Haskell
coaches, Hill and EEick, argued all
morning yesterday and failed to come
to any peaceable agreement as to Off
cials or TO eligibility OF the Haskell
players. Haskell wants to play Oliver,
assistant coach of the Redskins. and
ST. Germaine, who played at Haskell
three years ago Their grounds for
playing Oliver are that he is receiving
no pay for his work and is simply a
student coach. They can play St. Ger
maine according to the letter of the
contract, which states that Haskell
shall play in the Kansas game only
those men who have marticulated at
the Indian school before October i,
1905 The contract was drawn up sup
posedly to make it impossible for Has
