The Turn' New York correapoti dent states that frequent interviews which have taken place between President Roosevelt and the ambassadors indicate that a continuous and concerted effort is being to bring about peace, though an immediate and definite result is un. expected.

The Novoc Vrimya admits that Rozhdeatvensky was defeated in a fair and square fight, the Japanese seamanship and gunnory completely eclipsing the Russian.

Russia has cancelled the contracts for the German seamen engaged'for the fourth Baltic squadron.

This is interpreted to mean that Russia will send no more ships to the Fat' Enat.

It is .deemed that the Japanese intended to execute Rozhdestvensky aboard the Bildovy, and that they determined to commit haiikuri (suicide) if Rozlideatvensky was re* captured.
