Bitter Feeling Among Russian OFFICERS
From Port Arthur.

Paris, Feb. 16.-French special cor
respondents sent to meet the French
steamer Austraiien, having on board
General Stoessel and others or the
survivors of Port Arthur, forward de-
tailed accounts of discord among the
Russian officers. The army officers are
particularly hostile to the fleet, habit
ually calling 1t the frightened fleet.
Admiral I4ockinsky, who was comman-
der of the torpedo defenses at Port
Arthur, is lengthily quoted as making
a bitter criticism of General Stoessel,
Admiral Alexieff and others. The
Matin quotes Lockinsky as character
izing Vice Admiral Stark and Rear
Admiral Without as "bedchamber ad-
mirals, not acquainted with their du-
ties and seasick whenever afioat."
The admiral stated that Vice Ad-
miral Skrydloff prudently established
himself at Vladivostok, notwithstand-
ing his opportunity to break the inef-
fective blockade of Port Arthur. Lock
insky declared he would denounce
Stoessel, Skrydloff and Alexieff before
the courtmartial, as he did not intend
to let himself be made scapegoat
like Rear Admiral Ouktomsky, who
now trembles with fear in a Chinese
hospital" Lockinsky cited many in
stances of the unpreparedness of the
land and naval defenses, frequent con-
flicts of authority and decentralization
during critical engagements.
Substantially the same account Is
given by four French newspapers,
which describe General Stoessel and
Admiral Lockinsky as refusing to
speak to or salute each other. The
papers say the diseord among the Off
GERS foreshadows grave scenes before
the courtmartial.

POLAND STRIKE coLLAPsEs.
Reports Indicate Men Are Returning
to Work.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 16.-The latest
reports from Poland indicate that the
strike situation at Warsaw and Lodz
is exhausting itself. At several places
in Southern Russia. however, individ-
ual strikes are reported, notably at
the locomotive works of Kharkoff, but
the mems demands were Immediately
met.
The question of the coal supply for
the iron industry of the South is
growing daily more critical. The pos
sibility that the strikers of privately
owned railroads will demand the in
crease accorded to the men employed
on the government roads Is indicated
by the action of the Office force OF the
Moscow-Kieff road, who have present
ed an ultimatum to that effect. But
altogether the outlook continues to
improve.

kin's chief of staff, telegraphs that the
Russian artillery, Feb. 13, destroyed

nese force comprised 100 cavalry and
200 Chinese bandits. Russian from

Russians were reinforced and pursued
the Japansse twenty-five miies.

the proposition to hold q second peace
conference at The Hague, concluding
with the cornucopia OF arbitration

NO DEFINITE DATE SET.
Russian Paper Discusses Meeting of
Proposed Parliament.

ST. Petersburg, Feb. I'm. Sou
vorin, editor of the Novoe Vremya,
discussing the proposed assembling of
the zemsky tabor, quotes the views
of very high parsonage close to the
emperor as outlining plan by which
the outlying districts would be treated
as are the colonies of the United
States, but maintaining the principle
of unrestricted suffrage, declaring that
the Mujik has as much right to vote
as the university graduate and saying
1t Is essential that the proceedings be
conducted in Russian. This parsonage
figures that the zemsky tabor will con-
sist of 800 members. Upon the ques-
tion as to when the zemsky tabor will
be initiated he made no definite state
ment, saying the date had not been
determined upon whether now or at
the end Of the war.

Russian Headquarters, Huan Noun
tain, Manchuria, Feb. l6.-m front OF
koudzi, ON the right flank, the Rus-
SLAMS are trying the effect of concen-
trated siege and mortar batteries with
good results, firing as many as twenty
mortars simultaneously.
The Japanese are reported to have
suffered more from the cold than the
Russians during the fighting westward.
The hospitals at Liaoyang are reported
to be crowded with frostbitten men.
According to the Chinese the Japa-
pese reserve brGades are being moved
eastward, indicating the direction OF
the japanese offensive when it begins.
Reports from the same source say that
General Nogi will command the eX-
treme right
Rumors continue that the japanese
are quietly shifting heavy forces from
their center to their f1anks, the con-
stant artillery work in the central po-
sition seeming to cover such move
ments.
While the nights are still cold the
days are warmer and the time is ap-
preaching for ideal campaigning.
Spring In Manchuria is not marked
by a rainfall. The great battle which
oil are expecting and which may spell
ruin to either army should occur within
q month.
Whatever grounds may exist for the
charges that the Russians are violat-
ing Chinese neutrality it is certain that
bodies of Japanese troops and Chinese
bandits acting under Field Marshal
Oyama's orders are operating in Mon

Mrs. Edwards Opinion of Action OF
Pardon Board.

Reading, Pa, Feb. 16.-When the
news of the rehearing in the Greason
case and a continuance for Mrs. Ed
wards was sent to the jail Mrs. Ed
wards was lying on her cot, moaning
and sobbing and giving full sway to
her feelings. 1t was explained to her
that she had at least been granted a
new lease OF life. 1t was hard to
make her understand and her replies
were incoherent. She said that 1t ap-
peared to her as If her life was only
spared to prolong her misery. She
apparently realizes that she is only
saved from the gallows to enable her
to testify in favor of Greason.
The latter, when told of the board s
decision, said:
Il knew 1t could not be otherwise.
