ST. PETERSBURG, June 1.-THE

quently rejecting the views of the for
eign office, display a great deal OF re-
sentiment against the United States Tor
enforcing the 24-hour rule in the case
of the three Russian cruisers at
Manila. The Russ quotes the American
neutrality regulations and contends
that President Roosevelt, in applying
the principle that only injuries re-
ceived during the storm and not in a
battle can be repaired in American
ports, not only narrows the American
regulations but infringes recognized
principles of international law. This
paper declares 1t has official warrant
for the statement that representations
have been made to Washington on the
subject.
The Novoe Vremya is exceedingly
sarcastic After a slap at Great Britain
for the alleged manner in which her
vessels dogged the Russian fleet from
the time II left Cronstadt, and for try
ing TO force all the powers to accept
her Interpretation OF the rules Of neu-
trality. the Novoe Vreyma declares that

The union submitted a number of

these was that, if the strike was de-

sheriffs who are now protecting non

employers refused to consider such a

that they would maintain the guards
as long as there was the slightest
chance of violence.
The teamsters also demanded that II

virtual demand that the boycotted bust

Another demand by the teamsters
was that all strikers be given posi-

HAD TERRIBLE GATHERING
Inspection Of the orel Shows She Was
RlddIed by Shells

~ 1HNb1itAtu IItsHs
TOXIC, June "A correspondent Of
the Associated Press has been permitted
to inspect the Russian battleship Orel
now lying at Maizuru. The Orel re-
ceived a terrible battering. Her hull
shows forty gaping holes pierced by
large shells and many smaller holes
where she had been hit, while the sup
erstructure, her upper works and upper
decks were riddled by shells, steel frag-
ments and splinters. The starboard
forward 12-inch gun was smashed ten
feet from the muzzle, either by shell
went over the bridge. smashing the
rail, and after carrying away the
breeoh of q 12-pounder, buried itself in
the signal locker.
From the main deck upward the con-
dition of the vessel was terrible to be-
hold. Steel partitions were smashed,
the gangway was broken, and stan
chions wrecked. Gear of various kinds
covered the decks and the state Of the
alleyways shows that the ship was afire
several times.
The mark of the flames increased the
scene of desolation. The main armor
belt is intact The turret armor gener-
ally withstood the battering from Shells
although two of the 6-inch turrets were
rendered unserviceable by shots which
struck close to their base. Several
smaller guns were dismounted and
smashed. A gruesome sight was al
bulllhead bespattered with blood, frag-
ments of flesh and hair.
The Orel is sound structurally, al
though it will be necessary to practic-
ally reconstruct her from the water line
up. The condition of the ship shows
that the crew underwent a terrible or
deal before they surrendered.

BY Associated Press.

PARIS, June 7.--Premier Rouvier, as
minister of foreign affairs, today took
up, the active direction of the foreign
office, comforting with the chiefs of de-
partments upon various pending foreign
questions. Jules Cambon, the French
ambassador to Spain, whose name has
been mentioned as the possible success
sor to NJ. Delcasse, was among the call
ers at the foreign office, but M. Rou-
viers permanent retention of the port
folio of foreign affairs is now consid-
cred settled, as President Loubet and
the parliament wish him to surrender
the portfolio of finance and give his un-
divided attention to the foreign situa-
ton.
Either former Minister of Public In
struction Poincare or former Minister
of Public Works Baadin will probably
succeed M. Rouvier as minister of fl
nance. Important diplomatic changes
are also thought likely to be made as
result of the cabinet changes.

good offices the prospect of the presi-

together in peace negotiations is be-

1t is equally evident that the stu

will probably require some little time
to finally decide whether success shall
crown the presidents efforts to end the

In the meantime it must be stated
that there is not the slightest surface
indication of any change in the situ-

tician will attempt to persuade or COM
Eel Norway to maintain union which

of the union speaks in the name Of the

the revolution which is contemplated
in his Norwegian kingdom"
The Dagblad says: THE revolution
lists have now unmasked themselves
and have trampled upon the union and
upon their oath of allegiance to the

ians employed in our diplomatic service
must be removed. Sweden cannot be
represented by men belonging to q

Russia is helpless and powerless to do
more than protest. The Japanese min

tial to Japan. We trust Mr.. Roosevelt

The admiralty, it can be stated, is
reconciled to the interning of the three

poses on principle the ruling that war
ships injured in battle cannot repair
