I The Vossische Zeitung says that Russia is vainly seeking ■tp show^ that her reply afforded a basis foifl peace, and thus to throw. the blamM on Japan if war occurs. J . LONDON, January 6fl Reuter's Tokio correspon'de^H says that Russia's reply has i^H been received vet. The Standard's Tokio corresp^H dent says the semi-official ■ newH papers regard an open , rupturV with Russia as a matter of courses Mr Bennett. Burleigh, of Daily* Telegraph, states that Van Rosen's abseii.ee from the recent functions is commented upon. The Tirat'.i? declares .there is little room for dpubt that J^ussj&means tQ precipitate a conflict. Tne sending of a second regiment to Korea is a violation of the spirit of the Russo-Japanese agreements, calculated to exercise a disastrousjinfluence. The move .will possibly prove the most decisive, and'farreaching in its consequences ,otu:* yet taken bj' either side.
