BIG BATTLEsHIPs.
The North Atlantic Fleet Assembled
at Hampton Roads.

Norfolk, Va, Jan. All the war
ships of the North Atlantic fleet, in
Guiding the battleship squadron, the
coast defense squadron and the Carib-
bean squadron, that will be inspected
and reviewed by Adm. Dewey and Sec
rotary Morton are at their assigned
anchorages in Hampton roads. Six
powerful battleships with the Kear-
sarge flying the flag of RI. Adm. Bar
ker. form the first column in the rem
devious. Stretched out at quarter or
mile intervals behind the flagship are
the Alabama, Kentucky, Illinois, Mis-
souri, and Iowa. The coast squadron,
with RI. Adm. Sands on the battleship
Texas, and the cruiser Tacoma and
monitors Arkansas, Florida and Ne
vada constitutes the second column.
The cruiser Newark, flying the flag
of RI. Adm. Sigsbee, heads the Carib-
bean squadron in the third column and
a long line of dull colored destroyers
and torpedo craft under the command
of Lieut.. Commander Johnson is an
chored near Sewelrs Point on the

Emperor Nicholas and the Men,
berS of the Council of the
Empire Meet.
ARE CONSIDERING THE SITUATION.
Nothing Occurred to Indicate That
the Continuation Of the War
Would Be Abandoned.
Diplomats Realize That If Japan
Makes Any Sort of Offer, Unless
1t Is Rejected Outright, Neeo-
tons Would Be Opened.

ST. Petersburg, Jan. 9.-The confer
been holding with members of the
council of the empire, NJ. White and
other ministers and advisors on the
international and external situation,
have not yet been concluded but
nothing has occurred which would in
dictate that the government is prepar-
ed to depart from it's present program
of continuing the war to the bitter
end. Nevertheless, talk of peace was
heard in many quarters, the founda-
ton for it being ascribed to Foreign
Minister Lamsdorf's alleged position
in favor of such a course on the
ground that aside from the humilia
tion to military prestige involved, it
would only mean the REIMBURSEMENT
of Manchuria to which Russia already
is formally pledged. There is no con-
firmation of this statement of Count
Lamsdorfs position beyond the gen
eral knowledge that he always has be-
longed to the peace party.
Peace Talk Gossip.
1t is quite probable that the peace
talk gossip has been produced by the
arrival of foreign papers, as it receives
no encouragement in responsible quar-
tiers here.
The belief which existed in exceP-
tionally well informed diplomatic cir
cles that Japan would follow the fall
of Port Arthur with moderate peace
propositions has not been realized.
Up to the present time nothing has
reached the government either through
the United States or other channels.
Diplomats here can not figure out the
general lines Of a treaty at this juno
ture which both the belligerents could
accept, but realize that if Japan
makes any sort of offer, unless it is
rejected outright as not entertainable,
negotiations would be opened; and nc
gotiations once entered upon, friends
of both parties could use their good
Offices to bring about terms. This is
the only hope for termination of the
war which diplomats can see.
