BRITONS TURN TO RUSSIA.
Public WOuld WelcOme a Settlement
of Pending Questions.

London Oct. 6.-Au the newspapers are devot-
ing columns to discussion of the possibility of an
understanding between Great Britain and Rus
STA. pointing out that if Russia is sincere in her
expressions of q desire for peace in Central
Asia there is no reason why the two ancient
enemies should not come to an agreement that
will not only assure peace. but clear away the
suspicious leading to friction which have existed
for years. It seems possible that negotiations
with this object in view are pending though
definite official confirmation is lacking Color is
lent to the rumors by the recent frequent visits
paid to the Foreign Office by the Russian Am
bassador. Count Benckendorff and the fact that
Lord Lansdowne. who returned from his vaca-
ton to publish the text of the AngIo-Japanese
treaty, has remained at his office since that time
Count Benckendorf had long interview with
Lord Lansdowne at the Foreign Office yester-
day, and the Foreign Secretary left London i'm
mediately afterward for Balmoral. where Pre-
mieT Balfour is present as Minister in attend
ance TO King Edward
The position Of the British government was
clearly stated in a speech delivered by Gerald
Balfour, President Of the Local Government
Board, yesterday, in which he said
Great Britain has no intention Of making as-
gressive movements in Central Asia. Our object
Is defence and not defiance and if the Russian
government desires to come to an understanding
with US with reference to our respective inter
estS in that part of the world it will not find
the British government backward in readiness
to consider any proposals
The newspaper discussion has reached a much
wider range and includes suggestions for agree
ments which, # carried out, would make Europe
q family in which there would be no differences
One Of the suggestions which most appeal to
British of1cialdom and the London press is that
Russia, Germany and France subscribe to the
terms of the Ango-Japanese treaty. It is said
that if they sincere in their prOtestattonS OF
a desire for peace in Asia there is no reason
why they should not subscribe TO a treaty which
has this object in view. The suggestion that
Great Britain should more fully recognize Rus
STA 5 position in Southern Turkey has not had
much consideration in London. though this may
be of the points which the agreement. II
reached, will be based, and il may be a return
for Russian guarantees of her often repeated
assertion that she does not desire to advance
further toward the Indian frontier
The public in Great Britain would welcome an
understanding which would put end to the
frequent periods of unrest and consequent I'M
friendly relations with Russia.

immigrants, James A. Frazier. night Waterman
and hero of raid in Seoul Corea, yesterday
applied to Commissioner Watchoru for permis-
sion to carry a revolver The men Frazier fears
were dropped from the force on the strength Of
Frazier's testimony.
Systematic robberies, according TO Frazier,
had been carried on in the storerooms of Ellis
Island for the last two or three years. Watches,
cigars. pocketbooks shawIs and silks had been
missed by the immigrants Some of these re-
ported their losses after they were landed in
New-York; others were deported before they
had chance TO enter a complaint.
The efforts of the department to capture the
thieves were futile Mr. Frazier states. until
week ago when Inspector Mann put Frazier in
charge of the case. Frazier concealed himself
in the women's bathrooms and says he saw one
of the men taking valuable ostrich feathers from
rel Two men We're caught half an hour later. it
was said. while emptying the barrel and sorting
pocket books, shawls and other vaIuabIes from
the refuse.
The men We're arrested and tried by the immi-
grafton board.
Mr.. Frazier, who has family. thinks his life
is in danger, He was crossing the park near
Safest. late last Monday night ne says, when
one of the discharged men emerged from the
dark and came toward him in a threatening
manner. Frazier quickly put his hand to his
right hip pocket as if to draw a pistol. and by
that stratagem succeeded in fotling his enemys
plan He now believes himself entitled 10 carry
a revolver. Commissioner WatchOru referred
Frazier to Police Commissioner McAdoO.

with distinction in the United States Marine
Corps, and in 1885 drummer boy. at Seoul,
Corea, led company of marine guards to the
