A number of wealthy young officials are leaving the city to- night in consequence of fears entertained that to-morrow the trains may ceéase to run, and reports have reached us that in the provinces, on several stretches of line in Central Russia, especial- ly in the Government of Yula; the rails have been torn up by the people, hut again repaired by the troops. y Desperate attempts have been made and will be made by workingmen to plunder the arsenal. They complain that without arms they can accomplish nothing, and many intelligent support- ers of the revolution are beginning to fear that a temporary col- lapse of the movement is a question of two or three days— a collapse, however, which may last three or four weeks at the most, and culminate in far resonant occurrences. The majority are less pessimistic, and point to the fact that in two hours at one center alone a sum of £1250 ($6250) was collected for the strikers and their families, by whom the pinch of hunger was painfully felt. An appeal for foreign help, which was drawn up by a prom- inent. literary. man, has not been put forward because of his arrest, but I am enabled to state that the appeal, which would have borne well-known signatures, requests British and American newspapers to open subscriptions for_the strikers and to send the money to the office of the Russian journal Asvaboshdennie in Paris or to-the Vorwaerts in Berlin.

BRESLAU, Prussia, Jan. 24.—Special telegrams from Radom, European Russia, deseribe that city as being in a state of siege, with military. patrols in every street.

Lt Speclal Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, Jan. 24. — China has struck back as vigorously as diplomacy will permit at Russia’s recent charges that the Chinese Government has countenanced flagrant pro-Japanese | violations of neutrality. In a note delivered to Secretary Hay, who was | slightly Il at his home to-day, by Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, the Chinese Minister, the Peking Government not: only vigorously and specifically denies the Russlan charges, but accuses Rus- sla of flagrant violations of Chinese neutrality. This note is surprisingly vigorous._for a Chinese document. It is a bold diplo- matic challenge to Russia. Sir Chen- tung advised his Government last week to say frankly whatever it had tossay, and apparently his advice has been followed. This stiffening of the backbone of! the Feking Foreign Office is ascribed to the growing Japaneses influence in China. Half a dozen years ago, when' Chinese affairs were swayed'by a clique of men at Peking; 'most -of whom were under Russian influence, the Russian charges would.not have evoked such a radical reply. But now, the voice of the Chinese people ° is potent in Peking and Japanese influ-| €nce is growing rapidly. Secretary Hay will convey this note. tc the President. A similar note will be transmitted by China to alt neutral powers. GIST OF CHINA'S ANSWER. - Regarding the charge that Chinese bandits were enlisted in fhe Japanese army, the Chinese Government calls attention to the fact that they were enlisted first by the Russian frontier guards and fought against the Japan- €se army. If it is true, as alleged, that they enlisted in the Japanese army, that is a matter for the belliger- 2nts. The reply continues: 3 ‘We find no Japanese officers in our northern army at all. We do find in the Government school at Paotingpu several Japanese trans- Iators. ~All of them, however, had been en- gaged before the war, and atter hostiities oke out they were required to give their word of honor to have nothing to do with the These are on the same footing as Russlans and other forelgners In educational institutions throughout the empire and in our maritime customs houses. China further re- gards this as a matter of Internal administra- tion of which no other Government has cause to complaln. Regarding the iron ore said to have been furnished the Japanese army, the answer says this ore is from certain mines owned by Chinese merchants, separate from the Government mines at_Hanyang. The Maotao Islands are said to.have been used by the Japanese as a base for their navy. The Chinese Govern- ment for the last year has stationed the swift cruiser Haiki to watch these islands and the local prefect sum- moned the gunboat Halpu to patrol these waters. No sign of any land- ing of Japanese has been reported to the Government and it is unnecessary to add that no such permission has been given by the Chinese Govern- ment to Japan. SHIPMENTS OF CONTRABAND. Regarding the articles of contra- band alleged to have been sent to Dalny, the answer says no ships have left Chefu with the knowledge of the Chinese Government for Dalny, and no clearance papers for that port have been issued by the Chinése customs officials. If ships have run the block- ade that is the belligerents’ lookout. China is doing all she can to maintain "Regarding the Ryeshitelni incident, it is stated that the seizure was as un- expected by the Chinese as by the Russlans. The Chinese Government ‘later requested Japan to return the vessel and while, the incident is not -+ RUMOR OF SEA BATTLE AND RUSSIAN VICTORY News Agency Claims Fleets Met in Indian Ocean.

Jail for Briton for' Disclosing Japan- ese Military Secrets. YOKOHAMA, Jan. 24.—H. B. Collins was to-day sentenced to eleven years® imprisonment at hard labor for dis- closing to the Russians ceftain Japan- ese military secrets. H. B. Collins, of Portuguese blood but a British subject, who had long been a resident of Japan, was publicly tried at Yokohama on Jnuary 19 on the charge of disclosing military secrets. He was found guilty, but the passing of sentence was deferred until to-day. According to the evidence Collins visited Port Arthur and Tientsin last year and received $500 from Generals Ogorodinkoff and Desino, together with a private cipher that he might trans- mit information. Last October, the evidence showed, Collins wrote from Yokohama detailing a_ proposed dispatch of. troops, giving their number, destination.and purpose, to General Desino, but the Jetter was stopped at Nagasaki. g R MIKADO TOASTS ROOSEVELT. TOKIO, Jan. 24—The Emperor to- day received Llovd C. Griscom, the American Minister, in special audience, and later entertained Griscom and the attaches of the legation at luncheon. The Emperor requested the Minister to convey to President Roosevelt his great satisfaction over the cordial rel tions existing between Japan and the United States. He paid a high compli- ment to the courtesy shown to Lieuten- ant General Prince Fushim! by the President and people of the United States. In replying Griscom thanked the Emperor for the interest taken by Japan in the St. Louis Exposition and for the friendship manifested in the visit of Prince Fushimi. The Emperor, who was in high spirits, proposed the health of President Roosevelt. Prince Fushimi and other distin- guished. Japanese were present. PR B T JAPS ROUT SMALL FOROE.

The cycle of street car accidents on Market street seems not yet to have been, completed. The month of Jan- uary, although but two-thirds passed, has. witnessed more than a score of cable car. aceidents, Two fatalities have resulted.

Dr. Herzog, who treated the unfortunate man, does not hold out a ray of hope for the patient’s re- covery. Moore, who is 73 years old, was on his way to his home at 5 Tonningsen place.

In substantiation of this the Chicago po- lice say they have recovered a portion of the property stolen in this city. There seems to be little doubt as to the identity of the man. The telegram that Captain of Detec tives Burnett received from the Chi- cago police is as follows: “Yates in custody. Acknowledges identity. Have recovered some property stolen in your city; also have case against him here. Send certified copy of war- rant and complaint or indictment. ‘Will let you have him if unable to convict.” The telegram is signed by Francis O'Nell, chief of detectives.
