BRITISH FLEET NOT ID
 VISIT RUSSIAN WATERS
ST. PETERSBURG GOVERNMENT TAKES THE INITIATIVE IN
 THE MATTER

To be Postponed to a More Propitious
 Time-Agitation by Political Parties
 in Both Countries Connecting the
 Visit With the Internal Policy of
 Russia Makes it InOppOrtune--Great
 Britain's Attitude Appreciated.
 St. Petersburg, July 13.-The visit of the British Channel fleet to Russian waters has been postponed until more propitious time. The initiative in this decision came from Russia, which pointed out that the projected visit had been welcomed with lively satisfaction by the Russian government, which saw in it an expression of sympathy for Russia on the part of Great Britain.
 Unfortunately, it is added, certain po- litical parties in Great Britain and Rus- sia fomented sharp agitation with a view to connecting the visit with ques- tions of Russian internal policy. The firm and loyal statements of the British minister for foreign affairs, Sir Edward Grey brought the question back to it's proper ground and was appreciated at St. Petersburg at its proper value Nevertheless, in view of the political crisis which is passing over Russia, the government could not help foreseeing that an arrival of British ships at a Russian port might cause recrudes- cence of the agitation and incidents of a nature to harm the future relations of Great Britain and Russia.

RUSSIAN CABINET CRISIS
Dmitri Shipoff Declines Offer of Pre-
 miership from Cxar.

miership from Cxar.
 St. Petersburg, July 13-The Associ- ated Press learns from a reliable source that Emperor Nicholas has offered the premiership to Dmitri Shipoff, but that the latter refused the post on the ground that he is not member of the majority party in parliament, and that the only possible cabinet in the present crisis is one composed of constitutional democrats. He holds, therefore, that he cannot even be member of such a cabinet.
 Prominent constitutional democrats think the premiership will now be of fered to Count Heyden, who, though he has the sympathy of parliament, will be unable to form a cabinet, although scheduled for place in the coming constitutional democratic ministry.
 The postponement of the visit of the British Channel fleet to Cronstadt has caused much hilarity among the mod crates, who look upon 1t as sign that the government at last has awakened to its position and is ready to accept the inevitable. Conservatives, on the other hand, look upon it as another vic- tory for the moderates which soon will be followed by constitutional demo- cratic ministry.

LAWHEE ANSWERS ACCUSATION
Charges Witness Who Testified Against
 Him With BiacIzmaiI.

New York, July 13.--The coroners in- quest into the death of Mrs. Alice L.. Kinan, who was found beaten to death at the home of her mother Mrs. Louise M Stenton, several weeks ago in the Bronx, was adjourned tonight until Monday next, when it is expected the final session will be held. Although Mrs. stenton was introduced as a wit ness to-day. neither the coroner nor the lawyers could get a coherent statement from her.
 When the adjournment was taken nothing of apparent importance had de- veloped, and 1t was said that, while several persons were under suspicion there was nothing definite known to the police which had not been presented at the inquest.
 Burton w Gibson, who was attorney for Mrs. Kinan and who yesterday was accused by Mrs. Shippo, who lived in the stenton house, of having offered her $100 to leave the city, presented an atfi- davit to-day in which he declared the woman had attempted to blackmail him. He said she met him July and demanded $500 for her garden on the Stenton property, saying she intended moving away. Gibson said he offered her $l0O for the garden, but she eontin- ued to demand the $500 because she said she knew who murdered Mrs. Kinan. Gibson says he finally told the woman | to tell her story to the police.
 Mrs. Shippo, called in rebpttal, denied all that was contained in the affidavit and repeated her former story. It was to give the police opportunity to inyes- tigate these conflicting stories that the adjournment until next Monday was taken.
