Linevitch’s retire- ment to Harbin and the isolation of Vladivostok seem to be regarded as | foregone conclusions when Field Mar; | shal Oyama strikes. According to the latest news fromn 1 the front, which is thirty-six hours old, Oyama, after forcing back the Russiun right and center, transferred nhis| weight against the left, compelling th= | Russians to give ground therc also. The military critics, however, agree that the frontal movement is merely a feint for the envelopment of one or| Loth of the Russian wings, without which nothing in the shape of a cisive victory Is possible.

ALBANY, N. Y., June 27.—The execu- tive committee of the organization of Bquitable policy holders of New York and Brooklyn met here to-day, but de- cided to await further developments be- fore addressing Governor Higgins, Their | intention was to meet the Governor to- day and request him to submit the Equi- table matter to an extraordinary ses- sion of the Legislature. The commit- tee indorsed a resolution deploring the fact that one man has lately purchased control of the society, and declaring that the matter should be investigated by the Legislature. It was learned to-day that Paul ilor-l ton had sent a formal communication to Attorney General Mayer, asking for a conference on the subject of -a joint movement by the Equitable Society and the State government in the matter of instituting legal proceedings against the directors and officers who made il1- legal profits out. of their connection with the soclety. “The aim, if reached or not, makes great the life.

He said: “‘After June 7 8weden had two alterna- tives: One, that of force and the other to reluctantly accept dissolution, Nobody openly advocates force, but some persons ! advocated a procequre which would ulti- mately lead to war. The object of war rould be to compel Norway to retrace actions, but anger must not blind us our own inierests and our interests it to are against forcing +*orway into any kind while of a unfon. <A conquered Norway, of no advantage, would forever source of danger. It is best to as the dissolution of the unlon without harsher conditions than the future safety of the peninsula demands.” The Premier declified to answer criti- cisms of the Ministry beyond saying that dynastical interests were not considered in the Ministry’s programme at present. King Oscar has directed the court marshal to issue the following state- ment regarding the rumor that his Ma- Jesty would be willing to place a Prince of the house of Bernadotte on the throne of Norway: The King dces not approve the jdea and wiil not consent thereto. 7The only condition under which his Majesty could conslder this decision would be ‘the unexpected expression of the vish of the Riksdag that a Prince of the of Bernadotte should ascend the Nor- fan throne, King Oscar has issued a letter ex- pressing his thanks for all the proofs | | of loyalty and affection he received re- cently from thousands of throughout the country. e KAISER WILL NOT YIELD. . o s R persons Continued From Page 1, Coiumn 5. ¥ngland and Japan and that It is this which he has in mind when he demands of the French Government absoluta guar- antees that the latter “will not try to isolate her by relations of close inti- macy with her rivals B A BERLIN MAKES NO CONCESSIONS Declines to Comply With the Request Made by Rouvier. BERLIN, June 27.—The German an- wer to the French note.on the sub- ject of the proposed Moroccan confer- was sent to Pgris yesterday. ‘While amiable In formi it insists upon a cenference and also deckines to com- ply with France's request that Ger- many outline beforehand the pro- ramme of the conference. The Chanceilor takes the stand that the Moroccan question is an interna- tional affair and Germany, having ac- cepted the Sultan’s invitation to a con- ference on the subject, cannot rightly ree with any single power as to what can be discussed at the conference. Germany insists that France must agree to the conference before any ar- rangements be made as to the specific discussion. “The fact that we are urging a con- ference is clear proof that we have no wish for war with France,” said a high official. “When a nation wants war it cannot ask for a conference at the same time. If we wanted war with France we would have regretted D. Delcasse’s fall, since he was the groat- est obstacle to good relations France. On the contrary, M. Deleasse's removal and Premier Rouvier's deci- sion to retain the foreign portfolio gave great satisfaction in German of- ficial circles, hecause we saw in these steps. a guarantee of improved rela- tions.” ~t g ORIGIN OF THE PERSIAN RUMOR Private Advices From Paris ;o St. Pe- teraburz Report Agreement. ST. PETERSBURG, June 27.—Private advices from Paris say that Germany has achieved a diplomatic victory over France by réaching an agreement with Premier Rouvier for a settlement cov- ering not only Moroeco, but other questions by which it is presumed that Germany, like Great Britain. will Se- cure compensation for quitclaiming her interests in Morocco. Germany's quid pro quo, according to report, will be obtained in the near East, in rec- ognition of her influence in Persia.

NEW YORK, June 27.—A decision was handed down to-day in the United States Cireuit Court of Appeals in the suit | brought by the survivors of the La Bour- | govne eight years ago, which ordered the United States District Court, the tribunal | below, to mudify its opinion in conform- ity with the decision rendered to-day. The | prncipal feature of the new opinion Is that it orders the Compagnié Generale Transatlantique to pay over to the trus- tee the sum of 113,32) francs with interest frém the date of the disaster, this repre- senting the amount of the freight and passage money received by the owners of the vessel for the voyage from New | Yerk. on which she was lost. | As to whether che defendant was re- | gponsible for the loss of life, the court | hélds that the owners were personally without responsibility. As to whether the La Bourgoyne was at fauit and therefore responsible for the collision, the court decides that the defendant was not re- sponsible. Claims for nearly $3,(v.,40 have bheen filed againat the Compagnie Generale Transatlantique, the owners of the Bour- | goyne.

The appeal was quashed with costs. The Court of King's Bench of Quebec gave judgment in favor of handing over Gaynor and Greene to the United States Government. Leave was given to ap- peal to the Supreme Court of Ottawa against that decision. The Supreme Court has decided that there is no ap- peal and consequently the decision &f the Quebec court to hand over the men stands. The case now goes back to the Court of King's Bench.
