is happening is discussing the possibility
of capitulation, but what is likely to
follow a capitulation has not been even
spoken of by the officials.
The correspondent says he questioned
t1iplomatists and found they We're wholly
unconcelned They StoutIy declared
that obstinancy is Russia s forte, adding
that it would be premature to expect
her to abandon the game.
The correspondent quotes omcefs as
saying that a new army will be formed
if General KuropatlSin is crushed. ana
that the plan will not be abandoned even
if negotiations for peace are QecIueu
upon because an army will enable Rus

Might Dethrone Car.

The TeIegraphs St. Petersburg eorre-
spondent says military disaster at
the present juncture would prGoaply
mean calamity to the regime because
the whole Russian people are now keen
" conscious that the Car is personally
responsible for continuing the campaign
which the ministers and many of his
unofficial advisers, as well as the whole
people, wish TO see ended without fur
ther delay
Now that General Kuronatkin is utter
Iy beaten the Czar will find himself
confronted by the entire nation, whose
outcry for peace may soon become
clamorous and violent, and will, in the
most favorable case, contain a humili-
ating condemnation of the policy of the
monarch, whose intelligence and will
are supposed to be equal to the task
of governing 40, 100000 people without
expert advice or popular control.

Russia Faces Rebellion.

The dilemma awaiting the autocracy
now is open rebellion if the war is con-
tinued and open rebellion if peace is
concluded and the autoeratic principle
is maintained The number of soldiers
who refuse to go to the east Is increas-
ing. Many have been shot after trial
by court martial, while others have been
condemned to penal servitude At this
moment SiXty-one cavalrymen are being
to the front.
If the Car now refuses to make peace
the strike in all probability will spread
to the army and the Siberian railway,
which may at any moment be thus para
lyzed. But even If the railway is pro-
tected from a strike it cannot make good
General kuropatkin's neglect to provide
for a retreat to Harbin.

CLOSE SCRUTINY
Of BUNDY DEAL
Postoffiee Inspectors Search
Masten's Record.
BRIST0W REPORT QUOTED
1t Subjected Masten to Suspicion,
But Advanced No Proof of
Dishonesty.

In pursuing the investigation ordered
by the President into certain phases Of
the famous Bristow report, Postoffice
inspectors are now going over very care
fully papers relating to the Bundy time
recorder.
In the Eristow report it is noted that
in 1896 First Assistant Postmaster Gen
erai Heath extended the use of the
Bundy clock to clerks. At that time J.
NJ. Masten, Heath's chief clerk, wrote
to the Dey time clock people at Roches-
ter, n. Y, announcing the desire of the
department to secure II reduction in the
price OF time clocks and of the keys
accompanying them, and the Dey people
were asked to submit proposals.
Brown Changes; So Did Masten.
Robert Brown, Washington friend
OF Masten, in october, 1901, submitted
such proposals. A giaI of the Dey ma
chine proved satisfactory. and 1t was
about to be adopted by the department,
when Brown left the Dey company for
the Rundy people. Mr. Bristow. in his
report. in speaking of this change, said
that "Masten lost interest in the redue-
ton of the cost of time recorders.
The report shows that Masten enter
ed into a four-year contract with the
buhuy people at the previous price, but
of Masten's conduct, the report says:
''Masten's attitude in this clock trans
action and his relations with Brown
have caused some TO question the in
tegrity of his motives in abandoning the
idea of the reduction IN the price OF
these clocks at the very time that
Browns interest changed from the Dey
to the Bundy company But a most
searching investigation of the financial
affairs of both Brown and Masten fail
ed to reveal any evidence that any part
of the money received by Brown from
the Bundy Company has been paid to
