IS STILL CRIPPLED.
New York Street Gar Lines Operated
 By un.srlrou Id Trol ey.

New York. Jan 30-Service on many street car lines operated by under ground trolley, suspended because of last weeks great storm. has not yet been re-opened, although thousands of men have been at work clearing lhe tracks. The chief trouble has been found in cleaning out the conduits. One of the most important lines sti.l bfOckaded is that on Eighth avenue. passing along the western border of Central park. No cars are running north of Fifty.ninth street and it is ex- pected the line will be out of service for some days to come.
 In an effort to thaw out the frozen underground conduits gangs of track men poured great cans of coal oil in to the slot and set it afire. The blaze thawed out the conduits to perfection, but at the same time warped the slots so that in places it may be necessary to replace the metal. To add to the damage the pitch between the Belgian blocks, being inflamablc, burned and made a heat so great as to warp the rails that are welded togethed.

Tire object of tbn uppratinns Is 3nt clefriy under stood here. hut it is sugg,s ed that the Russians either intended to turn the Japanese left and move heavy force down west of the Liao river. or were seeking to divert attention from some projected operation against the Japan- csc right.

Sung By Russian Sympa. thizers in the Streets
 0f New York.

New York Jan 30-After a meeting in the acauemy of Music which was addressed by John de Witte Warner ana others. 1.5OO men and women sympathlzers with Russian freeu0m, who had been in the theater. marcne.l to the Russian consurs ottice in Broad street. singing the "Marselllaise'' and shouting revolutionary slogans. A great demonstration took place in front of the academy when the crowd poured into the street. Cries of Down with the Autocrats :" and kill the ear !" were heard. Then some one suggested that the crowd form in line and march to the Russian consulate.
 This program was enthusiastically agreed upon, and soon line of excited men and women extended for blocks along Fourteenth street. They march ed to Second avenue and thence down through the east side, shouting and singing as they went.
 A few policemen on the route tried to disperse the marchers. but were powerless. Every one in the sections through which the paraders passed was aroused. When the crowd reached 6S Broad street they stood in front of the office of the Russian consul for half an hour singing the 'Marsellaise. .
 Finally policeman tried to drive them away. They said they would re- main until the Russian consul came out When the policeman told them that 6S Broad street was only tho office of the consul and that he lived in another part of the city they were deeply disappointed.
 'He used to live at 17 State street" shouted some one.
 The paraders marched to that house, not far away. and made another deul- onstration. By this time four police men had arrived, and attacked the crowd with their night sticks. The mob did not dishand. but it became more orderly. Still singing and shout ing. they marched back to Park Row and up the Bowery to their homes on the east side.

St Petersburg, Jan 30, 1 :JO p. m.-- New complications between Great Britain anu Russia are teared on ac. count of the attack on the British con SUI and vice consul at Warsaw Satur- day night. Coming Ol the heeis or tis placard posted by Assistant Police Chief Rouanetf at Moscow charging Great Britain with incltlng the revo- Iution in Russia. the Warsaw incident is likely to arouse an 0utnurst in Great Britain which may again strain rela- tions between the two countries. Be- yCnd the fact of the attack at War saw resulting from the wounding of the British vice consul, who is now in a hospital. the British embassy here has no details of the affair. but Sir Charles Hardinge, the British ambas- sador. has already delivered note to Foreign Minister Lamsdorff asking for an immediate investication and eX- planation, reserving any claims which may hereafter be made and at the same time asking for the protection of British consuls throughout the empire. By the first train he also dispatched Major Napier, the British military at tache. to Warsaw to secure a full re- port of the circumstances. Count Lamsdorff replied to Ambassador Hardinge's second note on the sub ject of the Moscow placards by saying that instructions had been sent to re- move all traces of the piacards from the streets. It is now learned. how ever. that similar notices had been posted at Libau and Reval which led to renewal of representations on this score. In this connection the appear ance of the proclamation of the holy synod instructing the orthodox priests to inform their parishioners that tho strike and revolutionary movements were promoted by the external as well as internal enemies of Russia with the object of embarrassing the military and naval plans has created something of a furry among forcigners here and especially the British who believe that the object is to incite hostility. No further action. however. has been talk e,l by either Ambassador Hardinge or the other foreign representatives.
 Private advices from Warsaw say the authorities there have already taken over charge of the water works. electric light and gas plants and that serious trouble is anticipated.

RUSSIA'S REPLY.

Berlin, Jan 30.-The Russian gov, ernment's reply to China's declarations that she has not infringed neutrality nor permitted Japan to do so is re. assertion that she has done so. The Russian note which was communicated to the powers Saturday gives specified. tions of what is affirmed to be viola. tions of neutrality. but the tone of the reply is such that it is inferred that Russia is not likely to carry the discus sion much further. It is learned here that Russia found that all the powers. particularly Germany, held views iden- ticai with those of the United States On limiting the zone of war and keep ing China out of it.
