tude Is unchanged At the foreign Of
flee not the slightest encouragement
is given to the peace talk. On the CON
trary it is affirmed as strongly as ever
that japan must propose terms, while
at the same time tits admitted that it
is inconceivable that Japan can offer
conditions acceptable to Russia, and
that therefore the war must go on TO
a conclusion. The idea of a complete
Russian victory Is not harbored, but
it is insisted that Russia is not beaten
and will not be beaten until General
Kuropatkin is decisively worsted by
General Oyama and the fate of Ad-
miral Rojestvensky's squadron is de-
termined. The main consideration en-
tering into the calculations Of the un-
compromising advocates of a prosecu-
tion of the war is that Japan's finan-
cial resources must become exhausted
long before Russia's.

ACTION UPHELD
Commission Decides North
Sea Incident in Favor Of
Russia
DID RIGHT 10 FIRE UN IRAWltRS

Paris, Feb. %. ~ A semi.oficial
statement appeared relative to the
work of the international commission
which has been considering the North
Sea Incident II is as follows;
"The Hull commission met in the
ministry Of foreign affairs in order to
proceed to final examination Of the
report recapitulaing its conclusions.
The report is rather long. comprising
about 10 large pages. The principal au-
thor Is Admiral Won Spaun (Austrian), a.,
but all the members OF the commission
oollaborated in drawing it up. The
commission gives no opinion on the
question Of the presence OF absence Of
japanese torpedo boats In the North
Sea, declaring merely that the Russian
admiral quite legitimately believed
that his squadron was endangered,
and that he had the right under the
circumstances to act as he did. The
commissioners refer TO the Russian
governments engagements TO indem-
nifty the victims Of the deplorable in
cident
The report will be sent by special
messengers to the Russian and British
governments. not because it is liable
TO notifications at the instance of one
or other Of the governments, the com
missions decision being without ap-
peal; but the commissioners do not
wish the powers interested to simply
learn through the press Of the last
public sitting and the conclusions ar
rived at. There Is nothing In this pre-
lininary Communication or report ex-
cept an act of deference,p 0.I'aa "a q
The public sitting for the reading
OF the conclusions will probably be
held on Saturday. The admirals will
not be in full uniform. The proceed
ings probably will be closed by a
speech of thanks by Admiral Fournier
(the president of the commission) to
his colleagues.
Members Of the commission who
were seen refused either to confirm or
deny the statements; but officials hay
ing favorable opportunities to Judge
of the results Of the inquiry consider
the statement to be substantially cor

London Newspapers Indignant.

London Feb. pa strong chord Of
indignation is sounded by the London
daily newspapers this morning over
the semi-oflcial statement relative to
the decision Of the North Sea commits
sion giving TO Russia the victory, but
it is still hoped that the publication
of the full text of the commissions s
report may modify the impression
produced by the preliminary version,
which is one of intense dlsappoint-
ment
The Daily Mail goes, so far as-to de-
clare that the decision has dealt a
death blow TO arbitration. Some of the
newspapers blame the government
strongly for ever consenting to subject
such a matter to arbitration, while
some of the government organs find
cold comfort in the fact that the coun-
try by 80 doing avoided war with Rus
sia. No question is raised that the de-
cision must be respected. and Great
Brltain's share of the heavy costs will
be ruefully paid; but Il is considered
that the decision leaves the question
Of a neutral's right on the high sea In
deplorably unsatisfactory state and
creates a dangerous precedent.

A RAILROAD TICKET

"A little schoolgirls definition of
railroad ticket is worth repeating. In
a composition written in one Of the
Boston primaries on "A Railway Jour
ney' the little one says. among other
things:-
You have to get a ticket which is a
piece Of paper, and yet give It to
man. who cuts a hole in it and let's
you pass through"
This is rather good description for
a child, but ] wonder II many of our
readers appreciate half the pleasure to
which the slip of paper or cardboard
entities them.
In former years travelling was IN
some respects almost as hard as pass
ing through a hole punched in any
thing but under the present improved
system used on most roads especially
on the Philadelphia and Reading Rail-
way, the possessor of one Of these
small printed slips has many privil-
eyes.
Having a ticket, you take a seat in
a finely upholstered coach, in every
way more artistically decorated and
than the old style "Parlor
Car" considered in It's day the acme OF
travelling comforts, and are whirled
away at rapid rate by a swift loco
motive over smooth, well ballasted,
dustless road, well protected by auto
matte signals. The neatly uniformed
train hands being as rule so gem
tlemarily and polite that ladies or chill
dren travelling alone receive as much
or rather more attention than the
sterner sex.
Two especially rapid trips from Phil
adelphia are sixty Minutes to Atlantic
city" and "1wo Hours TO New York"
while nearly as fast time is made to
other points on the Reading System in
the Coal and Lumber Fields and other
parts Of Central Pennsylvania.
One very convenient point of the
Philadelphia and New York Line is that

stein seemed 20 be in poor condition
and consequently did great deal of
hoiding, which made the go practically
hugeing match. Krall had all the
lhest of the bout and 1t was the opinion
OF many OF the sports that he could
have put stein out had he wished to.
The bout between Young Artwell, OF
Chester, and Ping Pong, Of Philadel-
