thorities. Those who have advised
peace and suggested inquiries for Jap
ans terms, the French and British gov
ernments. are for the present silent and
are likely to remain so unless events of
an extraordinary character shake the
Russian emperor's resolution.
Can't Defeat Kuropatkin.
The considerations that led to the en-
peror's decision as understood here are:
First.-The Judgment of the chiefs of
the army that Field Marshal Oyama not
only cannot defeat Gen. Kuropatkin but
stands in danger of defeat himself. How
:oWardly, therefore, for Russia to ask
for mercy with all the men and money
essential to a successful war.
Second.-All the forces of criticism
now directed against the government for
having fought rather than yield to legit-
innate interests and for having failed to
win victories would be continued with
added fury against the government that
accepted war and then betrayed the coun-
try. 4 government that would crave
peace Of Russia's enemy while still ca
pablo of winning victory would be CIV
ing the party of change genuine grounds
for revolution.
The facts of the military situation,
love OF country and arguments of ex-
pediency were all against peace and for
pressing the war hopefully.

ness of a few days, George Sewell
Boutwell,. formerly governor of Massa-
chusetts and formerly United States
secretary of the treasury, died at his
home here yesterday, aged 81 years.
He was stricken with pneumonia last

For more than sixty years Mr.. Bout
well had been in public life, beginning
his career as lecturer at the age of
49, At "a he was elected to the Mas
sachusetts legislature, and at 80 he
was chosen governor of the state. Al
though elected to these offices as a
democrat, Mr.. Boutwell, became active
in the organization of the republican
party. He was personal friend of
President Lincoln.

KILLED while At
A FUNERAL.
PORTION OF THE FLOOR OF A
BROOKLYN CHURCH GOES
DOWN AT FUNERAL.
The Pastor and 800 Colored People
were Awaiting Services when tue
Crash Came Killing Eleven and
Injuring Many More.

New York, Feb. 2s.-Eleven persons
were killed and upwards of ffy in
jured, some probably fatally, by the
collapse of the flooring of the Fleet
Street African Methodist Episcopal
church in Brooklyn last night. OF
those killed eight were women, two
men and one child.
The building was an ancient, ram
shackle, frame structure, erected six
ty years ago in the heart of the colored
section of Brooklyn, in Fleet street
near Myrtle avenue. Arrangements
had been made yesterday to hold fun
eral services over Sidney L. Painter,
one of the Oldest members of the
church, and auditorium, (which is on
the second floor of the building, the
ground floor being used by the Sunday
school, was crowded with an audience
of upwards of 300 persons, of whom
the majority were women.
The congregation was waiting in ST.
lence for the arrival of the body, and
Pastor Jacobs was standing at the al
tar awaiting the summons to meet the
funeral procession at the door, when q
splintering of timbers was heard, and
in an instant half of the auditorium
nearest the door collapsed, carrying
down more than hundred persons,
who were crushed in the wreckage of
the flooring and pews.
A great volume of dust for few mo-
ments hid the victims. The remain
der of the audience, finding them
selves cut off from the door, and ex-
pecting every instant that the rest of
the flooring would collapse under them,
fought madly to reach the windows,
and in some instances leaped from
them and sustained serious injuries

JAPANESE CHARGE OVER HEAPS
OF THEIR DEAD AND CAP
TURE BERESNEFF HILL.
Slaughter Is Said to Have Been Enor-
mous-Believing Ultimate Victory
for His Forces Certain, the Czar's
Voice Is Still for War.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 27.-Official re-
Japanese capture of Tsinkhetchen and
Beresneff hill was effected by two
bloody engagements. Gen. KuroNi' S
men, said to have been 10000 strong,
advanced from SaimatZe, against the
Russian left flank at Tsinghetchen,
which is SIS miles southeast Of Mukden,
and after hard struggle drove the Rus
slams back on their base at Beres-
neff hill. They followed up the vic
tory with rush. but the Russians put
up strong resistance with their 49,
600 men. The Japanese repeatedly
charged the Russian trenches and in
the final attacks advanced over heaps
of their own dead to reach the Rus
sian lines. They captured Beresneff
hill February "a. Although the Rus
sian losses in the Beresneff engagement
are not obtainable, yet. it is feared, they
were immense, in view of the fact that
the Japanese overwhelmed Gen. Kuro-
patkin's flank and forced it to abandon
its base.
The sceene of the operations is so
miles southeast Of Mukden. beyond Da
pass, an important defile commanding
the road to Fushan. Both armies occu-
pying apparently impregnable positions
on the centers, Gen. Kuropatkin evi-
IDENTIFY planned to inaugurate widely
sweeping operations on both flanks, but
the Japanese countered hard.
Russia's Final Word.
st. Petersburg, Feb. 27.-"Peace can
not be considered Until Russia has
achieved signal success with honor
Such is ihe fiat from the highest quar-
ters. Gen. Kuropatkin assures the gov
ernment that victory is imminent.
This must be taken as the final word of
Russia in the peace controversy.
