Special Cable Despa'ch TO The SUN
LONDON, May 3i.-All Europe. save
official Germany, is crying insistently for
peace, but no response is yet heard from St
Petersburg. whence only peace can come
Diplomatic circles are just a. ignorant
as the general public OF what Russia will do
in face Of her complete martial impot ones.
All the st. Petersburg advices give no in
dication OF any change in the influence Of
the war party:
The official talk Of an indefinite prolonga-
ton of the war such az Count Cassini the
Russian Ambassador at Washington. is in
dulging in, is regarded as being OF no signf =.
canoe. 1t is mere patter. which must be
kept up until negotiations are well under
way or definite policy is decided upon.
Some st. Petersburg information to the
effect that the Gar will never initiate peace
negotiations seems to suggest that he
would almost welcome strong pressure
either from within the empire or from con-
certed action by the Powers, to which he
could appear to yield for altruistc reasons.
His weakness at the present moment takes
the form of obstinacy, which he himself
regards az manifestation OF high courage.
This manifestation of his puny character
ia arousing in France national exasperation
which threatens disaster to the Dual ALI
ance unless some evidence of statesma nshp
is soon shown in the Russian policy. This
feeling, which is chiefly based on the i'm
mense financial interests which Frenchmen
have in the Russian fortunes, is compli-
Gated by fears that Germany will soon make
a fresh move to take advantage Of Russia's
plight.
This apprehension is shared in Downing
Street. and it is regarded as significant that
Germany practically associates herself
from any peace movement among the
Powers.

War on R~ockefeIler.

New York. Sept: 2.-Followins the ada
vance In retail prices, the price of all
grades of crude oil. except raglan. was adj
vanced again by the Standard OIL COM
pany. making the third advance In quo
tiiions in two weeks. AS ustai the higher
grades Of oil were. raised 3 cents and the

The general Wall street explanation OF
the increase is that the public Is able to
pay the cost OF the great oil fight in Kan
sas Al the office of the Standard Oil
company. II was said that there was an
increased demand for oil abroad. owing
to the reduction of the output in the Baku
district. There has been a great falling
off IN pennsylvania production, and 1t Is
the gradual failure Of these fields that
led the Standard to invade Kansas.
The Standard always puts up the price,
of oil when the winter season approaches
