Peace Talk Has Not Received En-
enlargement at Foreign Office.
St Petersburg. Feb. 23.-Aithough
the party which is advocating peace
as the only egress from the present
situation continues to gain strength.
nothing has actually been decided on.
and no move has as yet been made.
III is officially maintained that Rus
sfas attitude is unchanged. At the
foreign office not the slightest encour-
agement is given to the peace talk.
On the contrary, 1t Is affirmed as
strongly as ever that Japan must pro-
pose terms, while at the Same time IL
rs admitted that IL is inconceivable that
Japan can offer conditions acceptable
TO Russia, and that therefore the war
must go on to a conclusion. The idea
of complete Russian victory Is not
harbored, but II is insisted that Russia
fs not beaten, and viii not be beaten
until General Kuropatkin is decisively
worsted by General Oyama and the
fate OF Admiral Rojestvensky's squad
ron is determined. The main consld-
Grafton entering into the calculations
OF the uncompromising advocates of
a prosecution Of the war is that ia
pans financial resources must become
exhausted long before Russia's.

Berlin, Feb. 23.-That the Russian
emperor has decided TO seek peace
does not appear TO be known officially.
but this court has been aware that the
emperor's mind has been wavering be-
