RUSSIA STILL DEFIANT.
French Loan Expected Within Ten
DayS-Wmr Plans.

ST Petersburg. March 15.-At the Ministry of
Finance it was said to-day that the negotiations
for a new Russian loan of $l25,000,OO0 in
France are expected to be concluded and signed
in Paris in ten days. The representatives OF
the Credit Lyonnais and Banque de Paris ct
des Pays-Bas left St. Petersburg yesterday. 1t
is pointed out however, that this does not mean
that the negotiations are broken off, the same
procedure having been observed in the case OF
the S1600 0,0e0 loan last spring when, after the
negotiations at St. Petersburg, the representa-
tives returned to Paris, where the contract was
signed within fortnight
The Associated Press. however is in a posi-
ton 10 assert that the Paris financiers have
been pressing for peace, justifying their atti-
tude on the ground of the enormous French
commitments in Russian funds, and those repre-
sensations have been renewed since the news of
General Kuropatkin's defeat. Their attitude
might exercise great influence on the ultimate
decision of the government. The peace party is
distinctly taking the position that the easi-
est and best manner of concluding the war is
TO negotiate alliance with Japan defining and
protecting the interests Of both countries in the
Far East. The difficulty of the Japanese
English alliance, which stands in the way at
present, could be overcome by secret clause
providing that the alliance go into operation
when the old alliance expires.
The question of peace still engrosses public
attention, but the attitude of the government
apparently remains firm. The Minister of Rail-
roads. Prince Hilkoff, to-day said that he per-
scnally would welcome peace, but it diff
cult TO see how it possible. To end the war
under the present circumstances would be
shameful. A peace which would surrender Rus
sia's position in the Far East after the sacri-
fees OF blood and treasure made to attain it
and would involve the complete loss Of Rus
sia's prestige throughout the world would be
folly. II was better to go fighting. There
had been no relaxation in the preparations to
prosecute the He now getting ready

THE CLOSURE VOTED.
MoUe to Hasten Proceedings on
Supply SaUagely attacked.

London March 15.-Premer Balfour introduced
athe "guiIlotine' in the House of Commons this
afternoon with the object of securing the sanction
ing Of the estimates before March 81. In moving
the closure of the proceedings supply the
Premier declared that it necessary in order to
secure the requisite votes before the close OF the
financial year. The step taken for the credit
Of the House. and not to extricate the government
from difficulty. Prolonged debates delayed bust
ness and the closure more in cOnsonance with
the dignity of the House than the suspension of
the Il o'clock rule. the vision OF the Dedraggled
members of Parliament going home at 10 O'Clock in
the morning being calculated to raise the
reputation of the House of Commons.
Mr.. Asquith QiberaD in few caustc sentences
moved the adjournment. He declared Mr. Balfours
motion parliamentary scandal, the greatest
minister to a ''nominally' deliberative assembly.
He accused the government of management
and the Premier of encroaching on the powers
and privileges of the House, and said the motion
marked an epoch in the degradation of the House
of Commons from deliberatfve TO a dependent
body and transformed it into mere automatic
machine to register the will of the executive.
The motion to adjourn was defeated by 266 votes
to 200. Mr.. Redmond moved an amendment that
the House decline to sanction any proposals for
further curtaiing discussion of supply The amend
ment was debated up to 1880 O'clock when Mr..
Balfour moved closure, which was carried 2i9 TO
2lS. Mr.. RedmOnd's amendment was then defeated
by n majority of 40.
The debate on Mr.. Balfour's "guillotine'' motion
will be resumed tomorrow.
