PEACE TALK CONTINUES
No Fighting at the Front Russians
Against the Indemnity.

st. Petersburg, March -. = There
is no fighting reported anywhere along
the line in Manchuria. and a similar
report is made to Toxic by the Japan
csc commander Peace talk continues
AS showing the views of Russian mer-
chants, the following is interesting. 1t
is from Moscow: with the exception
of the Moscow Gazette practically all
the newspapers of this city are for
peace on condition that there be Meth
Ell cession Of territory nor payment of
indemnity. At banquet prominent
merchant declared that the happiest
end Of the war would be immediate
peace, but if the government consents
to indemnity We will throw the bomb.
Enough Russian gold has been spent
in Manchuria.'
A Paris dispatch says: ''It is stated
il diplomatic quarters here that among
the conditions of peace which Japan
might ask would be that Russia give
pledge to build no more warships for
a term of years. A diplomatic official
said that such a condition would be
the most effective means of assuring
Japan against Russia's carrying out
her cherished project of naval re-
armament for the renewal of hostili-
ties under better conditions than those
at present existing.
London, March PA st. Peters

ORDER REGARDED AS BLUFF

Car Said To Be Playing to Gain Con-
cessions from Japanese.
London, March 2S--While Russia
wants peace, and while it is doubtless
true that tentative negOtia tons are I'M
der way, Russian diplomacy is deter
mined to minimize as far as possible
the concessions that will be necessary
to bring the war to an end. Proceeding
along this line the car has announced
that an additional force of $50 200 men
will be modified and sent to Manchu-
ria at the earliest possible moment
War experts do not take this latest
announcement from ST. Petersburg
with any amount of seriousness, as it
is we'll known that the Trans-Siberian
railroad can not handle this vast num-
Der of men so as to be of any practical
aid to the disheartened force of Line
witch.
Trustworthy information shows the
entire strength of the Russian force in
the far east is only about 10000 men
capable of real service, and these are
half-starved and lacking in spirit as
the result of the constant series of
Japanese victories
Linevitch, it is believed, will be en-
abled to reach Hardin in safety, as
Oyama is keeping his main army at
Tie pass. Just what coup the Japan
csc commander is contemplating is
proving a puzzle to the experts The
whereabouts Of various divisions com
handed by Kuroki, Nogi, Oku, and
Kawamura are not known, but it
would not be surprising if they were
far to the north and west of the re-
treating Russian army.

an elegantly dressed man went to the
police station at Praga, large suburb
of Warsaw, on the other side of the

assembly room of the station, wounding

Second Bomb Is Thrown.

ny sent TO Baron Won NOlKon at the
city hall, informing him of the out
rage. Baron Won Nolken, accompanied
by police official, took a carriage
and started Immediately for Praga.
When passing the castle where the
governor general resides a man stand
ing on the pavement threw a bomb at
the carriage. Baron Won Nolken, who
was sitting on the side nearest the as
sailant received the full charge of the
bomb, while his companion escaped I'M
hurt The cOachman was thrown from
the box and the carriage was smashed.
Baron Won Nolken was removed to the
city hall, and doctors were summoned
who found he had received injuries on
the head, neck, arm and leg which are
believed to be serious.
Bomb-Thrower Gets Away.
Meanwhile the police official accom-
panying Baron Won Nolken saw the
bomb thrower fleeing, and pursued and
caught up with him, but the criminal
proved the stronger and tore himself
away. Another policeman fired twice
after him without result. Half an hour
later a man was found dead in SOwia
street but he proved to be a plain
clothes policeman who was seen pIr-
suing Baron Won Nolken's assailant.
The police believe that the latter turned
on the policeman and shot him dead.
Baron Won Nolken's injuries are seri-
GUS, but it is thought that he will re-
cover. A girl who was passing the
spot when, the bomb was thrown was
wounded by splinters. and had to be
taken to the hospital.
How the Plot Was Laid.
According to the theory of the police
the revolutionists calculated upon
Baron Won Nolken going to Praga on
learning Of the explosion of the bomb
at the station there and knew he
must pass the castle, that being the
only road by which he could reach the
only bridge across the yistula The at
fair caused great excitement a popu-
lar rumor says the revolutionarics
adopted this course of informing the
police that they have more bombs be-
sides those discovered in the Powon-
ski cemetery Saturday.

Baron Won Nolken is very unpopular.
He is hated by the masses of the Polish
population, who hold him responsible

BRITISH GUIANA,S MINIS.
u - Bssssvsd That the Ces.4ry u
D6sA IN Both Gold ed D1s-
A0nAa.


An ofheisl report ON the gold. dia-
mond and forest industries of British
Guiana for the year ending June 80,
1901, has just been received in this
country and shows that great efforts
are being made by the authorities of
the colony to stimulate the produc-
ton of both gold and diamonds. The
report declares that with the req
uisite capital and labor, the fields
are capab BILE of indefinite expansion,
says the New York Sun.
While the work of inducing addi-
tional investments has been going on,
those men who are now engaged in
the gold-mining business have not
been idle. A dredger has been erect
ed on the Barima river and conces-
sions have been obtained from the
government on the Conowarook.
Purini, Cuyuni, Groete creek and
Barima rivers. The men holding
these concessions are waiting for re-
turns from the Barima and if these
are as favorable as they are expect
ed to be, work on the other streams
will begin at once. From June 30,
1900, to June 30, 1901, the production
of gold in the colony was 1O9,2o7
ounces.
The report II even more sanguine
of the future OF the diamond fields
1t says:
"One of the most encouraging
events of the year has been the at
tention that has been given to the
diamond deposits of the Mazarini.
Since July 7, 1900. no less than 1888
diamonds have been declared at the
department of mines az well as 2,151
sapphires. With the exception of 1853
diamonds coming from Potaro, all of
these stones are from the Mazarini
diamond fields"
1t has recently been discovered
that the area in which the diamonds
lie ID much more extensive than was
supposed. The mode of their occur
renee is similar to that of the Bra
lillian diamonds in western MinAs-
Geraes and at Sac Joao de Chapoda.
On account of this fact, the report
says:
CAS- the present production of the
Brazilian washings is estimated at
$1,000 carats per annum, the council
are of the opinion that the utmost
Importance attaches to these indica-
tions and furthermore think it to the
interest of the colony that the gov
eminent geologist be instructed to
report fully on the diamond fields. II
would seem advisable that the gov
eminent should send up an expedi-
ton thoroughly to report on the
present condition of the fields, par
ticularly as there are many men on
the ground and disputes will very
likely arise as to the locations"
/ The customs returns show that last
year 900 carats of diamonds were ex-
ported. The total number of labor
ers employed in the gold mines at
present is 15,565.
