RUSSIANS HOPELESS.
Belief That LdneUitch Must Soon
Fall Back ON HGrbin.

St Petersburg June 27.-The military experts
take glowing view of General Linevitch's STU
alton. They Go not believe he can be surround
ed but apparently they do not consider the pos
sibility of a Russian victory. Lnevitch's retire
ment to Harbin and the isolation Of Vladivostok
seem to be REGARDED as foregone conclusions
when Field Marshal Oyana strikes. According
to the latest news from the front, which is
thirty-six hours old Oyama, after forcing back
the Russian right and centre. transferred his
weight against the left, compelling the Russians
to give ground there also.
The critics, however, agree that the frontal
movement is merely fent for the development
Of one or both of the Russian WINGS without
which nothing in the shape of a decisive victory
is possible. The impression is that Oyama, prof
iting by experience, is moro carefully preparing
his turning operations. but the Russian staff
saws that General Linevitch has taken ample
precautions to keep in touch with fanking move
ments and that 1t is not possible to take him
by surprise.
Occasional heavy downpours of rain continue
at the front.

CHINESE BOYCOTT GROWS.
NATION4L SPIRIT SHOWN.
Mr. RockhM Opposes Plan Of
SpeciaI Mission-China's Claims.

Peking June 27.-The question OF Chinese ex-
clusion from the United States continues cmeny
to occupy the attention of the Chinese Inc
extent and depth of the feeling manifested as
tonishes foreigners, and is regarded as an eNl-
dence of the growth of a national public spirit
which five years ago would have peen lhcoh-
ceivable. Among many instances clted as e'i-
dence Of this it is said that Chinese COM
prador has refused a lucrative appointment
with an American company. Advertisements OIL
American goods continue to be refused by the
native newspapers, and letters and telesrarns
from all parts of China, well as from ABROAD
are being received. urging the central govern
ment to take firm stand.
The chief obstacle is the question OF exclu-
sion of coolies from Hawaii and the Philippines.
It is urged that there is no reasonable opJec-
ton to the landing of coolies in HAWAII, where
they do not compete with American labor Wnlle
Chinese immigration has long been established
In the Philippines.
These points the Chinese regard as essential
but it is thought unlikely that they Will De con-
ceded by the American government. With
view of obtaining a settlement China yester-
day proposed to send a special mission to
Washington. but the American Minister Mr.
Rockhill, declined to entertain the idea The
Chinese deplore the risk OF losing American
good will. but say that their grievances are
legitimate.
In the mean time the boycott of goods from
the United States continues, and the anti
American campaign is increasing in vigor. The
American Minister has applied to the Board OF
Foreign Affairs to check the movement. and
Viceroy Yuan of Pe-Chi-Li Province, has is
sued a proclamation on the subject but It's
efficacy Is considered doubtful.

SWEDES THREATEN WAR.
FIERY SPEECHES MADE.
Attempts I'm Riksdag to Block the
Governments Plan.

c+ockbolrn June 27-Both houses of the Riks-
dag to-day elected extraordinary committees
to which were referred the government Dill look
ing to a settlement with Norway. The senate
committee consists of nine anti-government anu
three pro-government members, and the House
committee of five pro-government, hFe ahti-so'-
ernment and two independent members
The debates on the remission of the bill
brought out fiery speeches, in which the actlon
of the Norwegian Storthing was condemned anu
the Swedish Cabinet seyerey criticized
The tenor of the speeches through the debate In
both houses leaves the impression that most
Of the speakers are OF the opinion that peace
full solution of the difficulty is extremely I'M
probable
Baron Kennedy, speaking In the Senate. said:
If the Kings ftessage expresses his opinion,
he has lost two crowns instead Of one.
This remark was greeted with great cheering
by the anti-governnent members.
The Minister of Justice, Herr Berger, IN the
House defended the Cabinet. and said that
Sweden did not wish 10 force Norway unWlll-
ingIy into a union. Such action would mean
succession of rebelIions. which Sweden would
Rave to suppress 1t would be useless he said
to submit the question to the Norwegian peo-
pIe who, more than ever were determined 70
break away from the union. II Sweden had at
first laid down conditions and Norway refused
p$SAA
course for Sweden except The Minister
defended the action of the government and said
it would have been feeble indeed If they had
yielded to the popular clamor in some quarters
for war.
Premier Ramstedt said in the Senate:
After June Sweden had two alternatives
one that of force. and the other reluctantly to
accept dissolution. Nobody openly advocates
force but some persons advocate procedure
which would ultimately lead to war The object
of war would be to compel Norway to retrace
her action, but anger must not blind us to our
own interests and our interests are against
forcing Norway into any kind of union. A
conquered Norway, while of no advantage, would
forever be a source of danger. Add to this the
horrors Of war and their enfeeblns results-all
arguments against the employment OF force.
If rot force, then it is best to assist in the
dissolution of the union without harsher condl-
tions than the future safety OF the peninsula
demands.
