When the Treaty of Portsmouth brought to a con clusion the terrible struggle between Japan and Russia there were many far-seeing observers who did not share the universal jubilation. The sudden and drama tic close of the war was mainly attributable to finan cial exigencies on the part of both belligerents. With an exhausted Treasury and an over-taxed population the Mikado’s Empire was unable to meet the crush ing cost of continuing the struggle, and the Tokio Government welcomed relief no less eagerly than the Russian. Japan, however, admittedly retired from the fray without having attained the full measure of her ambitions. Since the peace treaty was signed there have from time to time been ominous rumours of unsatisfactory relations between the two former enemies, and that this friction is now becoming serious is evident from the three despatches we reproduce below. There is little doubt that the attitude of Japan since the war lias left much to be desired. Either the national thirst for glory is still unslaked, or the administration of Japan is in the hands of men whose aim it is to embark their country on far- reaching schemes of aggrandisement. The three tele grams, it may be mentioned, orginate from a bv no means anti-Japanese source, and may be taken as a strictly impartial presentment of the situation: — ST. PETERSBURG.—The position arising out of the development of Russia’s Far Eastern policy is today a [remarkable one. On the one hand it is author itatively stated that the negotiations towards a Russo- Japanese Agreement are proceeding satisfactorily, Russia having recognised the necessity for more drastic Japanese action in Corea; while on the other hand, it is beyond question that there is decided anxiety in Government circles by reason of the continued reports as to Japanese intrigue. A well-known Rus sian politician says that the assassination of Prince lto may well have been a calamity in a double sense. It is difficult to believe that relations with Japan are as happy as they were immediately prior to that event, and the fact that Japan has not been able to send a representative to follow in the murdered Prince’s footsteps speaks for itself. It may as well be said at once that, according to a growing belief here, Japan will not rest satisfied until she has secured control of Manchuria. Thousands of Japanese agents are busily sowing seed which, in the event of a new struggle, will bear its fruit, and the circumstance which causes the most uneasiness to Russian official dom is that the coast from Vladivostock to Nicolai- evsk is being systematically explored by Japanese ships of war. If Japan seriously regards the ac quisition of this coast line as necessary, in order to remove a war-time menace, it is doubtful whether any diplomatic arguments will be strong enough. Ru mours are circulating as to an exchange of territory, but they are so vague and shadowy that, for the present at any rate, they cannot be taken seriously. ST. PETERSBURG.—It is rumoured here that M. Kokovtzoff has brought back a very gloomy report of the state of affairs in several departments as the result of his recent visit of inspection to Vladivostock. Thus, he found that the Ministry of Marine asks for the same grant of money as it received for use at Vladivostock before the war with Japan, although it has no Navy to maintain at that naval base now. At the same time, all the official and Government buildings at Vladivostock are falling rapidly into de cay, although vast sums of money are granted every year for their upkeep. Every Government depart ment is engaged in a lawsuit with the other depart ments, and the Town Council is at loggerheads with every Government official. There is one exception to the fault that has been found by the Minister of Finance. Strange to say, M. Kokovtzoff finds no fault with the work that has been done by the Ministry of War, although he acknowledges that large sums of money are required still for fortifying Vladivostock, Miypr!

ST. PETERSBURG.—Further details have just come to hand from Vladivostock with regard to the activity of the Japanese gunboat “ Chia ” along the Kam- schatka coastline. It is reported that the crew of the “Chia” landed near Okhotsk in the Primorsk, or Littoral Province, on the mainland, and went in land, w'here they fraternised with the Tunguses, and assured them that another war would break out very soon between Russia and Japan, and that then the whole region of Kamschatka would belong to Japan thenceforward. Finally, the leading men among the Tunguses were invited on board the “Chia.” So far all the protests that have been made by the Russian officials have been totally unrecognised by the Ja panese, and the fact that Japan now' regards Kam schatka as its own territory, or likely to become so at no distant future, is seen in the complaint made by the Russian officials, that Japan has already levied tribute upon the inhabitants of Kamschatka. NEWS OF THE WORLD. WASHINGTON, Tuesday.—Congress assembled yesterday. After holding a brief and purely formal session, both Houses adjourned till today. NEW YORK, Tuesday.—The Evening Post learns from Washington that President Taft intends to send a Special Message to Congress dealing with the pro posed abandonment of those clauses in the Interstate Commerce Law which concern interstate railroad com munication. This subject will also occupy a prominent position in the Presidential Message itself, since the President is knowm to be in favour of extending Federal Government control over the railroads. WASHINGTON, Tuesday.—The Secretary of the Treasury has laid before the House of Representa tives a -statement of the ordinary expenditures provided in the Federal Budget of 1911. The total Budget is estimated at 732,223,070 dollars, or 123,066,493 dol lars less than the 1909 Budget and 103,370,303 dol lars less than that of the current fiscal year. Fol lowing upon President Taft’s recommendation of economy, reductions have been made all round, and the 1911 Budget provides only for absolutely neces sary national expenditure. WASHINGTON, Tuesday.—The State Department officially announces the appointment of Mr. William James Calhoun, of Chicago, as American Minister at Peking. Mr. Calhoun is a lawyer with an extensive practice. He w'as admitted to the bar in 1875, was a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission from 1898 to 1900, and is now director and general counsel of the Corn Products Company. He is a partner in the firm of Pam, Calhoun, and Glennon, Chicago. NEW YORK, Tuesday.—The New York State In surance Board has recommended the institution of criminal proceedings against the president and board of directors of the Phoenix Fire Assurance Company, of Brooklyn, who are charged with irregularities in manipulating the funds of the Company and falsi fication of a report regarding the business of the Company prepared for the State authorities. PHILADELPHIA, Tuesday.—The United States cruiser Dixie has taken on board seven hundred Ma rines from the stranded Prairie at Wilmington, Del., and has left for Colon. Whether these troops will be landed on Nicaraguan territory depends on the course which negotiations between the Washington State Department and the Nicaraguan Government may take in the next few' days. Several American worships are now' cruising in Nicaraguan waters. CANNES, Tuesday.—The fatal accident to M. Fer nandez, the aviator (reported in yesterday’s Record), on Monday, occurred on a large stretch of ground in the vicinity of Antibes. Fernandez only succeeded in getting aloft after three attempts, then he rose to a height of 25 metres,—not 500 metres, as at first reported. Suddenly the apparatus, which was ascending on a spiral course, was seen to plunge forward to the earth with great velocity. It crashed down and buried the aviator beneath the wreckage. Willing hands hastened to raise the heavy structure and ektricate M. Fernandez, who was found to be dead. His death must have been instantaneous. LONDON, Tuesday.—Queen Victoria of Spain, who has been visiting here to see her sick brother, Prince Leopold of Battenberg, left for Spain last night. LO,NDON, Tuesday.—Reuter’s Agency denies the report of a secret Anglo-German Congo Agreement. An Anglo-German agreement concluded last May re lated to a purely local frontier question between Ger many and England at a point where both frontiers were contiguous to Congo territory, but did not in the least concern the question of reform in the Congo. ATHENS, Tuesday.—Many metal workers held a meeting at Piraeus yesterday demanding that the Gov ernment should place a heavy tax on imported foreign machines and tools, while leaving raw material duty free. A deputation of the workers went to Athens to lay the meeting’s resolution before the Chamber of Deputies. All factories are closed. PARIS, Tuesday.—The increase in the redemption money of Ex-Sultan Abdul Asiz’s jewels (not ex- Sultan Abdul Hamid’s, as erroneously reported yes terday) announced to take place yesterday has been postponed by request of El Mokri, the Moroccan en voy here. He announces through his lawyer that the pledge ticket has been lost, and on behalf of the Moroccan Government has deposited a cheque for H million francs to cover the cost of redemption.
