Bisbee daily review., 1905-02-19

St. Petersburg, Feb. 1S.-In diplo- matic circles the opinion is generally expressed that yesterdays tragedy may be followed by decision of the government to conclude peace with Japan. For some time, despite the of Iicial attitude maintained by the gov ernment, there has been growing ap. preciation of the difficulties of prose cution of war in the midst of increas- ing complications at home, and, as an nounced by the Associated Press yes terday, the matter was actually the subject of formal consideration by the Emperor and his ministers on Febru- ary 16.
 Strong influences, which it is un- derstood are headed by M. Witte, have been working in this direction. In this connection the war office is con- siderably alarmed by the new danger threatening the Manchurian army in the form of attempts made by Japan csc and Chinese bandits to cut the fine Of communication back of the army. According to reports. about 10000 men, in bands of several hun dred each, are striking at the rail road. 4 Russian detachment follow ing one of these bands which cut the road below Harbin. fell into an ambus- cade of two regularly organized Jap anese regiments, and was almost cut to pieces. The fear is that if the bandits move further north or west they might interrupt communication to such an extent as to make it impos- sible to supply the army.
 Through channels by which the Russian official secrets leak out it has been learned that there is more the matter with the Russian navy than anyone has suspected hereto fore. outside of few persons con nected with the ministey of marine.
 Recent events have. of course, proved that. among officers and men of the czar's fleet, efficiency and dis cipline are lacking to an almost un- believable extent. but heretofore there has been little reason to sup pose that there was much wrong with the vessels themselves. It is now said that the condition of almost every ship of war flying the Russian flag is such as to render it practically worthless as 8 fighting instrument.
 Of this state of affairs the czar knows nothing. Nicholas II. still la bors under the delusion that he pos sesses a strong. modern, well organ ized, well managed and thoroughly efficient navy which he could employ at any time against the rival fleets of other first-class powers. His uncle, Grand Duke Alexis who is command.
 V0- fleet, could, however, open his impe- rial nephew's eyes if he chose to do so. One or two other intelligent members of the Russian imperial family have also strong inkling of
