gram From Marshal OF No

to Make Common Cause With Pan
Slavists in Holding That Conflict
Should BE Continued to End.

Samarin, marshal OF the nobility Of

pressed his attitude toward the war
for the first time since his declaration
III the Winter Palace at Its outbreak
Then the Emperor asserted there could
be no peace until every hostile soldier
had been driven from Russian terri

The telegram to NJ samarin was, in
part. as follows:
81 sincerely thank the Moscow gov
eminent for its attitude toward me,
which, to me. is source of deep
qualification. Let all sincere sons Of
the fathcrland be united. as were our
glorious ancestors, wholly believing
that the Almighty will bless the efforts
of our heroic warriors and the suf-
ferinGs OF all true sons OF Russia, and
give to the powerful fatherland and
to the peoples protected by us a bril-
liant future, destroying at one blow
all the enemies OF our related Slavs."
NJ. Samarin's telegram TO the En-
peror follows:
I'VE hail Your Majcsty's determine
, ton to carry on the war to full
y
VIII shall dictate the definite conditions
which for Russia, III her position an a
| great world power. shall secure peace,
| which will guarantee her economic In
dependence. The outcome of the war
