Our Consular Omoers Assigned to Man.
churia Ordered to Their Posts.
WASHINGTON, Aug. a0.-The first effects
Of the peace news Of yesterday Is gradually
wearing away and this Government Is
preparing to take up the few pending m at
tiers that were held up by the war. The
American oonsuls assigned to Mapchurian
cities have been instructed to proceed to
their posts. Several oonsuls. consular
agents and commercial agents have been
kept from their posts by the operations
in Manchuria. At Vladivostok the con-
sular officers Of all countries may return
to their oonsulates, which they were forced
to abandon months ago by orders Of tho
Russian military government
The disposition OF the interned Russian
ships in American ports will come up imme-
diately after the treaty Of peace has been
signed. This Government now has juris-
diction over four Russian vessels, the
Aurora, Oleg and Zemtchug at Manila.
and the cruiser Lena at San Francisco.
President Roosevelt has paroles Of all the
officers and members Of tie crews Of the
various vessels. After the treaty Of peace
has been signed President Roosevelt will
be at liberty to allow the Russian vessels
70 20 their way. This Government will,
Il is believed, soon thereafter file claims
against the Russian Government for the
money which has been expended in caring
for the crews Of the four ships. What this
win amount to cannot now be estimated.

SECOND PEACE CONFERENCE.
PRESIDENT TO REVIVE HIS PRO-
POSAL TO THE POWERS.

He IL Confident That Conference VIII be
Held at The Hague, as Russia Alone
Refused to Enter Into It Until the
Conclusion OF the war With Japan.
WASHINGTON, Aug. so.-with the sign
Ing OF treaty Of peace between Russia
and Japan further action will be taken
looking to second peace conference at
The Hague. Since last winter, when
answers were received at the State De-
partment from all OF the countries adj
dressed with the Presidents circular note
suggesting the conference, the matter has
been at standstill.
The responses almost unanimously fav-
ored the conference, Russia alone refusing
10 enter into aonther peace meeting until
the war had come tn an end. There was
likewise disposition on the part OF other
countries to wait until the conclusion
OF hostilities. Japan agreed to take part,
but with the reservation that the present
war was not to be taken up in the discussion.
Russia's refusal to participate, however,
practically postponed the date Of meeting
until the war should end. In the meantime
there have been exchanges between the
Powers concerning the scope Of the con-
ference and the questions which should be
taken into consideration when 1t finally
assembled. The war has furnished many
points to be considered.
Although it was impossible last winter
to proceed the President and the late Secre-
tary Hay by no means gave up their project.
Austria Hungary, Denmark, France, Ger
many. Great Britain. Italy, Luxembourg;
Mexico; The Netherlands, Portugal.
~
Switzerland and Belgium agreed to partici-
pate. So did Japan, with the reservation
mentioned. It Is quite certain that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is confident that q confer
ence will be held.
As matters have stood since last winter,
whom this Government suspended it's Of
forts for another peace conference by the
issuance of circular note to the Powers
giving the answers Of all countries to the
Presidents proposals, the next step will
be the issuance by the Netherlands Govern
ment OF call to assemble. The note to
all the Powers signatory to Tho Hague
agreement was made public by Secretary
Hay on Dec. % last.
It informed each Government Of the
various answers received to the Presidents
proposal for q peace conference. and In
effect stated that with this step the con-
nection Of tho American Government with
the matter came to an essd. The note, how
ever, contained the assurance Of Secretary
Hay Of the eventual meeting Of the con-
ference. He said:
although the prospect o, an early COM
vocation Of an august assembly Of represen-
tatives OF the nations in the interests Of peace
and harmony among them Is deferred for
the time being it may be regarded as assured
as soon as the interested Powers are In a
position to agree upon date and place Of
meeting and to join In the formation OF Q
general plan for discussion

cAsTRo's ATTITUDE MENAclNo
Particularly Hostile to French and
American interests.

Paris, March 27.-An official dis
patch from Caracas, Venezuela, says
President Castro, who was absent
from the capital during the recent
supposed amelioration of the situa-
tion, has returned and has manifested
strong hostility against American and
French interests. His attitude, it is
added, is particularly menacing
against the French Gable company
1t is premature to say what steps
France will take, as the information
has just been received and the Off
cials have not had an opportunity to
consider it. However, it is likely
that their action will depend upon
President Castro putting his menaces
into effect by overt acts against the
company or the forfeiture of its con-
cession. No orders for warships to be
held In readiness have yet been is
sued or are contemplated for the
present, but there seems to be a grow
ing impression in official quarters
that the presence of a warship in Ven
ezuelan waters might exercise a salu-
tary influence.
The official dispatch adds that Pres
ident Castros declination to arbitrate
the American demands was accom-
panied by a refusal to hold any con-
yersatiOn on the subject.

MINISTER DAW SON EFFECTS TEN
TATIVE AGREEMENT WITH
SANTO DOMINGO.
DEBTORS WILL GET PART OF CUSTOMS
PRESIDENT TO NAME COLLECTOR
WITH CONSENT OF DoMINi-
CAN GOVERNMENT.

Washington, March 2T Renewed
interest in Santo Domingo affairs was
manifested in official circles during
the day upon the receipt by the state
department of a caS gram from Min
lister Dawson indicating that he had
effected with the Dominican govern
ment a tentative agreement which,
temporarily at least. would adjust sat
isfactorily the fiscal conditions of the
island government.
While the precise nature OF the
negotiations between Minister Dawson
and the Dominican officials cannot be
learned it is understood that it con-
templates the placing of the fiscal al
fairs OF the island government, so far
as the collection of revenues Is con-
cerned, in the hands of a commits
sioner to be designated by President
Roosevelt with the consent of the Do
minican government. The revenues
of the island would be collected by
this commissioner, a sufficient per-
centage of them being placed TO the
credit of the Dominican government
to pay current expenses and the re-
mainder deposited as a fund to pay
the foreign claims of the island gov
ernment at such time as a distribu-
ton of the fund may be agreed upon
by the creditor governments. 1t is
intimated strongly that President
Roosevelt would receive such a propo-
sition with favor if it should be
known to be satisfactory to the Santo
Domingo government, although in en-
tering into the agreement, If 1t ac-
tuaIly has been made, Minister Daw-
son acted without specific instruc-
tions from this government and en-
tirely upon his own initiative.

FIGURES CAUSE SENSATION
TOTAL RUSSIAN CASUALTIES OF
WAR so FAR AGGREGATE
HALF MILLION MEN.

st. Petersburg, March 27.-Stung by
the wholesale criticism lately heaped
upon the war office for its unpre-
paredness and incapacity In providing
the Manchurian army with men, guns
and munitions the army organ lays
bare what has been done since the
opening of hostilities, giving the ex-
act figures. From these 1t appears
that up to March II the war office
had dispatched 13,0S7 officers, 7bl,467
men, LAG, 6,40S horses, 1,521 guns and
316,321 tons of munitions and supplies
to the front, declaring the transporta-
ton strained the Siberian railroad to
its utmost capacity. The army organ
admits that the army in the Far East
when the war opened was hardly
worth the name tno figures being
given but it is known that the troops
did not exceed 10000 mem, defend
ing this on the ground that Emperor
Nicholas desired to avoid war and
therefore refrained from sending re-
Inducements, which surely would
have provoked 1t.
The criticism of the war Offices
failure to adequately supply Port Ar
thur is met by the statement that 1t
was provisioned for
Garrison of Twelve Battaions,
the decision to put thirty battalions
there being taken SO late that the
original calculations could not be
remedied.
While affirming the quickfiring
guns and field guns of the Russians
are superior to those of the Japanese
the war office explains that the mis-
fortune in the insufficiency of the
mountain guns was due to the fact
that when the war broke out Russia
was just adopting a new pattern.
Ii is denied that the war office was
deceived in regard to the available
strength OF the Japanese army or the
organization of the Japanese reserves,
but the army organ frankly admits
that the talents of the officers and
the wonderful spirit of the soldiers
were miscalculated.
The publication of this article has
created a sensation among military
men and In public circles, many of
the former censuring the general
staff for disclosing valuable military

JAPANESE ACTIVITY m CHINA
Agents in Various Lines of Business
Throng Celestial Empire.

Berlin, March 27.-A letter from
PelSing, published by the National Zei-
tung, gives the results of an inquiry
into Japanese political activity in
China The writer says Japanese
agents in various lines of business
are penetrating into China and set
tling in every important place In the
empire, devoting themselves to their
calling in life, whether priest, editor,
teacher or trader, and to winning
peacefully the good will of the Chi
often used is the founding of news
papers printed in the Chinese Ian
guage and friendly to Japanese aims.
These try to influence the provincial
governors and Peking government to
employ Japanese teachers in schools
and especially to place Japanese mill
tary instructors in charge of the Chi
nese troops. In addition Japanese
Buddhist monks have begun to arrive
In China on semi-political, semi-relig-
ious errands. They seek closer rela-
tions with the Chinese Buddhist or
ganizatlons and have acquired control
of several monasteries over which the
japanese flag is fioated. The monks
also established Buddhist chapels
and organized congregations. Their
, declared aim is to unite the various
Buddhist sects in China. The Bud
dhist monasteries In China have all
ready placed themselves under the
protection of the Japanese flag and
have become branches Of the great
Ben Yuan Thue monastery OF Toxic.
