ST Petersburg. March 26.-1:50 d. N.
The industria! problem in st. Pet
ersburg has again entered on a differ
ent stage, the owners of many factories
having in consequence of continued
backing and filling by their employees

The machinery in one of the big cotton
mills was wrecked yesterday, and the
spirit of disorder is in the air. TrOu-
BILE is expected, and it is believed the
wilder spirits are now not without
bombs and other weapons Of defense
and reprisal. Guard officers continue
to receive warnings that they will sign
their death warrants if they order the
troops to fire, and a social democratic
propaganda of demonstration and dis
turDance is evident.
It is openly; stated among the work
men that the fighting wing of the SO
cial revolutiOnists has passed sentence
OF death on thirty high personageSs the
list being headed with the name OF
Grand Duke AleXief,. and ending with
that of the Emperor, and bearing also

San Domingo, Republic of Santo Do
mingo, March 25.-In order to meet the
fiscal situation it has been proposed
by the Dominican government that an
American be designated as d commis-
sioner for the collection of all Gus
toms duties at southern ports, 45 per
cent. of such collections being set apart
for the expenses Of the government
and 45 per cent. less expenses OF col

bank until the Sanchez-Dillingh CHAM
convention is either ratified or reject

ly rejected the money to be divided in
just proportion to all creditors, includ-
ing the Santo Domingo Improvement
Company, OF New York 1t is also sug
gested that the American government
take charge Of the custom houses at
Snachez and Semana, under the arbi-

stood that the improvement company
claiming prior rights, demands that So

the northern ports be also deposited
in an American bank to await the final
disposition of the convention 1t is
doubtful if any such proposition will
be accepted.

SOUADRONS MAY MEET
Public Interest Changes to the Indian
Ocean. Where it is Possible That a
Great Naval Conflict May Occur.

St. Petersburg, March 25.-6 p. NJ
Although. public interest in the war
has suddenly been transferred from the
battlefield in Manchuria to the Indian
ocean, by the possibility of great ma
val conflict between Admiral Rojesi
vensky and Admiral Togo, and desp.-e
reports that scouting vessels have al
ready been engaged near the island OF
Mauritas, the admiralty declines to
display any anxiety.
Although without direct advlces the
admiralty does not credit the report
of he meeting of scouting vessels OH
Mauritius The same thing holds good
in regard to the report Of the sinking
of the Russian battleships Sissoi Veliky
and Navarin. which it is declared, was
probably an arrant invention. 1t can
be asserted, however, that the report
that Admiral Rojestvensky is awaiting
Admiral NeboCatoff's division TO
strengthen his squadron is incorrec1.
The vessels of Nebogatoff's division are
not. OF the same type or speed as Ro-
jestvensky's and are only intended to
trail behind as a convoy to protect the
feet of colliers.

AN End.


London, March 25.-The great Albert

Rev. Reuben TORY and Charles M. Al

CATRO'S HOSTILE ATTITUDE
hanifests Hostility Toward American and
French Interests.
COURSE OF FRANCE NOT KNOWN
Officials Have Not Had Time to Con-
slider the Situation-Castro Declines
to Hold ANY Conversation Regard
ing the American Dcmands-Cable
Comnapy's Sasc on the Docket.

Paris March 25.-An official dis.
patch from Caracas, Venezuela, says
President Castro, who has been absent
from the capital during the recent SUP
posed amelioration of the situation has
returned and has manifested strong
hostility against American and French
interests. His attitude it is added is
particularly menacing against the
French Cable Company. 1t is prenia-
ture TO say what steps France will
take, as the Information has just been
received and the officials have not yet
had an opportunity to consider il.
However, it is likely that their action
will depend upon President Castro
putting his menaces into effect by
oyerthrowing the claims against the
company or the forfeiture of it's COLI
cession. No orders for warships to DE
held in readiness have yet been issued,
or are contemplated for the present
but there seems to be growing ini-
preston in official quarters that the
presence of warship in Venezuelan
waters might exercise a Statutory in
fiuence.
The official dispatch adds that Pres
ident Castro's declination to arbitrate
the American demands was accom-
panied by a refusal to hold any con-
versation on the subject.
The French Cable Company has r..
ceived advices practically TO the same
effect These indicate that President
Castro's influence will probably cause
the court to render final judgment
upon the Cable company's concession
early next week.

nation that Rdssia's steps towards
peace have alroady taken a tentative
form at a conference held within re
cent days at one Of the small caHl-
tails of northern Europe. The purpose
of this appears TO have been to bring
together personages representing hoth
sides, .leither having credentials to dis
cuss Jrnlal terms of peace but to in
formally examine what each side cX-
pected and what tentative basis seem
ed POSSIBLE The nature of this eX-

sidered a definite peace movement, but
it is understood TO have given each
side an opportunity to judge the Tiew
OF the other and it has clearly shown
Russ;a's disposition towards peace.

the change in Emperor Nicholas at
titrde concerning the advisability OF
making a pacific proposal to Japan Is
fully confirmed, and in very high quar-

The secret of what has been done

however, from a source close to Jha
