GERMANS FORESEE GAIN
Relief on Eastern Frontier and Long
Peace Expected.

Berlin Aug 30-After the first sensations Of
wonder and relief over the announcement of
peace, German observers strive TO readjust their
conception OF the new relations of the powers
brought about by the peace. Russia's position.
with powerful neighbor both east and west,
becomes somewhat similar TO Gerrnany's.
Russia doubtless will maintain a strong army
in the east, and thus relieve somewhat the
weight Of her numbers the western frontier.
She viii no longer be feared as heretofore. be-
cause, even after the restoration Of her prestige
and the reorganization Of her resources, she will
ever have Japan to watch The German govern
nent, according 10 some Of the best newspaper
judges. is convinced that Japan may be expect
ed 10 remain quiet for many years If let alone,
and that she will peacefully develop her new es-
tate on the Asian continent The yellow peril"
idea seems 10 have disappeared from German
minds.
Chancellor Won Bulow, in an outline OF the
terms agreed at Portsmouth says:
In their reception Of this fortunate result the
German advocates Of peace are in full agree
nent with the Americans.
The German government has prepared its view
Of the situation. which will appear in the next
issue Of the North German Gazette as fol-
lows:
We greet the news with lively satisfaction.
The agreement, quick beyond expectations is
due to the quiet tenacity Of Emperor Nicholas
and his counsellors in st. Petersburg, as wen
as to the plenipotentiaries in Portsmouth Ac-
Acknowledgement must be made Of the untouched
powers Of resistance that remain in the Russian
imperial state, notwithstanding the military
rnsfortunes, and also OF the upsetting OF all the
political theories that had been built up on
the undervaluation Of the Slav world.
The decision for the japanese statesmen was
not an easy one but ii honors their wisdom.
It shows also that the youngest world power
which has so brilliantly entered into the com
rnunity Of the cultivated powers is worthy or
the example It gave during the war TO Western
civilization. The conclusion OF peace by yield
ing all sharp conditions may be more highly
valued because the agreement was a voluntary
act not due TO foreign pressure. but sef-lm-
posed.
We congratulate both sOveretgns, their govern
rueuts and their peoples with open pleasure on
attaining an understanding with each other, and
we hope that those who have been enemies may,
as soon as the final peace treaty is signed, begin
10 live next TO each other az good neighbors.
Shining in the history Of our times will be
the record of President Roosevelts services,
whereby the conclusion Of peace was made pos
sfble His was piece Of hard but mastery con-
d11cted work of craftsmanship, and humanity,
which will use this peace for its development
viii not forget the name Of Roosevelt.

Fast had been concluded. Although from the
first the Italians had been optimistic 1t was
thought that the Russians, and not the Jap
anese would make concessions.
State officials unanimously think that peace
was best for both belligerents. The military
men. on the other hand, consider that Japan
made great mistake in leaving Russia foot

Carlsbad. Aug. 30-The opening OF the nego-
tiations here tomorrow between the Swedish
and Norwegian commissioners the question
of the dissolution Of the union is awaited with
great interest. The Scandinavian newspapers
are well represented. The question mostly dis
cussed is what fortresses Sweden will call upon
Norway TO abolish. The Associated Press has
reason to believe that these will be the fort
resses of Fredriksten. Kongsvinger. Orje and
Bingsrud but it is understood that the Norwe-
CLANS will positively refuse TO abolish those of
Fredriksten and Kongsvinger.

relative to meetings which took place recently

ries and to their decision regarding Manchuria-
1t was agreed. the paper says. that immediate
ly on the cessation Of hostities the Chinese gov
eminent should dispatch $1,000 men to garrison
Manchuria; that the administration Of Manchu-
ria should be reorganized soon as the Russian
and Japanese forces withdrew; that China
should thank Japan for her sympathy and beg
that the districts surrounding Dalny and Port

Chinese imperial house should express the nope

TO DISMISS M'LEAVY BROWN.
Japanese Decide to Remove Head Of the
Corean Customs Service.

Seoul. Aug. S0.-John McLeavy Brown. who
for twelve years has been at the head OF the
Corean customs, is to be dismissed. This Is
probably due to the fact that the customs ad-
ministration has been undertaken by M. Megato.
the Japanese adviser to the Corean government,
and is part OF his general plan TO reorganize
Corean finances. Under the new arrangements
the customs service will cease 10 exist a
separate organization. but will be arranged on
e plan similar to that of the Chinese maritime
customs.
In 1901 Russia attempted to oust Mr.. Brown
who was retained. however. owing to the support
Of the governments OF Great Britain and Amer
lea. Since the Japanese influence has predoni-
mated at the Corean court, ii has been expected
that they would take over the control of the
customs, but it recently reported that even
then the contract with Mr.. Brown would be
renewed. Consequently, the news that he is to
be dismissed comes as surprise. Mr.. Brown
lighted the coast and improved the harbors
during his long service in the department.
