PETERSBU RG, Feb. —After having fasted the Czar drove this| mbrning to the Anitchkoff Palace to partdke of the sacrament, He was ac- | companied by the Czarina and his| daughter Olga, who were dressed in | white in honor of the solemn occasion. | His Malesty was clad in full uniform. The congregation included the Down-i ger Empress, the Czar's sister, Grand | Duchess Olga, and her husband,: the | Duke of Oldenburg. His Majesty took the consecrated bread and wine from Court Chaplain Yanysheff and after- ward bestowed the bread, steeped in wine, upon the Dowager Empresg, the Czarina and the Grand Duchess. The rules of the orthodox churck forbid the administration of the elements sepa- rately, except to men. The customary mutual congratula- tions followed the partaking of the sac- rament, and the imperial party then breakfasted in the Winter Palace. Later in the day they dined at the Anitchkoff Palace. The crowds along the Nevsky prospect heartily cheered their Majesties as they drove through the streets, There was a touching scene at the| Nicholas railroad station this evening when; Grand Duke Cyril, eldest son of the Grand Duke Viadimir, the Czar's uncle, left for the Far East. Grand Duke Cyril returned to St. Petersburg this morning.and went to take leave of the Czar this afternoon. He partook of the sacrament in. the church at the Viadimir Palace and then proceeded to the station, wheré he was met by l large number of imperial Princes and { Arthur | flagship. | anese at Possiet Bay, | brivate officers, who were waiting to bid him j have signed the protocol for a treaty farewell. by which the Japanese guarantee the Grand Duchess - *Marie, Cyril's | independence and integrity of Korea. | mother, broke down at the last mo- | No doubt is held-as to the approval of ment and wept as she embraced her son.

Great interest is felt here as to how the powers will re- ceive the news that Japan and Korea Great Britain and the United States. Belgian, French and German subjects, panies conducted officially by Russians, have been pressing for concessions which may be affected by status of Japanese and Korean rela- tions. PARIS, Feb. In explaining the Japanese-Korean treaty Molono, the Japanese Minister to France, said: “My Government broke off relations with Russia in order to safeguard the independence and integrity of Korea. This treaty is a new affirmation of the policy Japan has not ceased to pursue at Seoul. The independence of Korea is a guarantee of the security of Japan, My country cannot without exposing itself to suicide permit a third power to occupy Korea. It is for us a ques- tion of life or death. We wish neither to annex nor subject Korea, but we do not wish Russia to incorparate the country as she has Manchuria. The statement that the treaty provides for a Japanese protectorate is imaginary.” 27— 5 8 * For just one day—tc-morrow, Monday— ‘we will offer this'oak bureau at the above spe- cial price.

AT LI Proposed Cable Ex- tension Adds to Bitterness. ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. —The Bourse Gazette to-day makes a Wash- ington dispatch, saying the United States has undertaken to lay a ‘sub- marine cable from the Philippine Isi- | ands to Japan to prevent isolation in case the Russians cut the Shanghai cable, the subject of a bitter ‘,’alm(k tpen the Government at Wash- 'ington “for this new evidence of its | breach of neutrality,” claiming that ithe contention of the United States i \undertaken for the improvement of | trade relations “does not clear Amer- lica's skirts,” and inquiring | Americans would say if Germany had run a cable from Kiaochau to Port | Arthur of Viadivostok.” : | The news that the United States had | assented to the extension of the Pa- i-im- cable to Japan, with the reasons | assigned in the dispatches from Wash- | ington, still further aggravated the pop- ular belief that the United States is siding with Japan against Russia. The few Americans in St. Petersburg have all remarked on meanor of their Russian friends. For- | merly they were treated with the greatest cordiality, but now the sians greet them with the questio *Is America our secret enemy and will we have to fight her also before the war comes to an end OLD FRIENDSHIPS SEVERED. How deeply the Russians are wound- ed hy the belief—destined, unless checked, scon to become a conviction— that America has spurned her old friend and is now playing a hostile role, is shown by this severance of | personalities, of which striking in- stance occurred this week In a promi- nent drawing-room, when the most in- timate Russian friend of an American lady declined her proffered hand. Upon the lady’s exclamation of astonish, ment. her friend broke into tears and ! said she felt aggrieved at all Ameri- cans since the reported action of the commander of the United States gun- Loat Vicksburg at Chemulpo. The attitude of the United States is a eabject of eonstant discussion even ‘in the highest circles hére; where with i 1 a the greatest regret the fear is ex- pressed that the two countries, with- out excuse so_far as Russja .is con- cerned, seem to be drifting apart. The recently reported cancellation of Ame:- fcan contracts indicates how the re- gentment of America’s supposed hos- tility has invaded business affairs. Popular feeling is, of course, to be largely attributed t8 certain of the Russian newspapers, which have sud- denly turned their batteries from Great Britain to the United States and have seized every rumor to place the worst possible interpretation upon its acts. BITTERNESS OF THE PRESS. Without waiting for an which, it is apparent from the patches received here to-day from Washington, will put another complex- ion upon the Vicksburg incident, the | columns of the vress for days past! have been full of. excited comment fair. In spite of the state of popular opinion the Government, it can be con- fidently asserted, places the highest value gn American friendship, and al- macy is at times privately viewed ask- ance, cfficially the Government of the Czar assumes that the American atti- tude has been strictly correct. nor is the slightest disposition to question its acts manifested. At the Foreign Office to-day the press was informed that -the Government knew nothing officially of the Vicks- structed Count Cassini, the Russian an explanation. to be possible that the Embassador had courteously inquired as to the truth of the Vicksburg reports, without having had specific instructions. Regarding the reports of the cable to Japan the Government is alsa without with the representative of the press, after having spoken of the matter, was that even if these were true, would not necessarily consider running of this cable a breach of neu- trality. The press is authorized to say that the Russian proclamation concerning contraband of war will be issued in a few days. CABLE QUESTION UNDECIDED. NEW YORK, Feb. 27.—It was an- nounced in dispatches from Washing- ton ‘on February 24 that the Commer- cial Cable Company had addressed in- quiries to the Government as to wheth- er permission coufd be secured to land on the island ¢f Guam a cable connect- ing with Japan. This cable would con- nect at Guam with the Pacific Com- mercial cable to the United States. It was said that the request was based upon the apprehension that the exist- ing Japanese cables, both of which run to Shanghai, might be cut during the present hostilities, and Japan thus be lated from the world. In consider- i the request the Government was said to have reached the conclusion that an assent would not involve, a breach of neutrality, taking the ground that a cgble is a commercial instru- ment, like a mail ship. ‘WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—Most care- ful consideration is being given to the application of the Commercial Cable Company, made on behalf of Japan, to land a cable on the island of Guam to connect at that point with the Amer- ican cable. Last evening the Presi- dent, Secretary Hay and Secretary Taft had a conference on the subject.
