Little Prospect of Peace.
Russian Military Opinion.
Russian Prestige Will Not Permit Concessions Being Made. Her Reply Expected by Sunday.
Received January 28, 6.56 p.m. LONDON, January 28. Russian military opinion does not believe Count Lamsdorff has seriously undermined the impression made by Prince Alexieff at St. Petersburg, that war is appreciably nearer. The Grand Dukes, combating the Czar's desires for peace, declare that Russian prestige will not permit concessions being made in compliance with Japan's impertinent demands.
It s expected that Russia's reply will be ready on Saturday or Sunday. Japan is not likely to move till her new cruiftgrs reach Singapore, except to prevent an attempt of the Port. Arthur and Vladjvostock squadrons uniting. ¥
