"It is stated that the Japanese have decided to declare hostilities on the expiration of their ultimatum to Russia. The Russian fleet has deared from Port Arthur. It is reported that the Japanese are landing troops at Masanpho,
Korea.
"There arc strong ipdkations that Germany favors hostilities on the ground that it would enable her to extend her sphere of influence in China. "A number of Add mins were embarked at Port Arthur for an unknown '-Tdegtiriation. All the available force of workmen is employed on the fortifica-

“Hostilities arc still believed to be imminent. It is asserted that the Russians have fixed Friday next for their commencement. There is an exodus of Chinese merchants from the Yalu Valley. They are arriving in Chefu." The Daiiy Mail correspondent at

“Careful inquiries show that the only Japanese troops at Mzssanpbo arc on the small territory conceded to Ja- ’ connection with the railway

SU1 a Serf*; Hope.
Berlin (By Cabfe).—Russia and Japan act as if either would fight if the other should hold immovably to the position taken up in the last exchange of communications. This is the actual situation as understood officially from reports received from the German Embassy in St. Petersburg and the lega-
tion at Tokio.
Yet this mutual attitude with hostile preparations by both countries is still regarded here as not excluding an honorable arrangement. Neither Government has gone so far that it must fight or be humiliited. but either by a single step can put the other in that position. This delicate balance may. of course, be violently disturbed any day. though no ultimatum has yet been
thrown on either scale.
It is believed here officially that war, should it occur, would be between Russia and Japan alone and that neither England nor France would be involved.

The negotiation* between China and the United States, which culminated in the signing of fbe treaty, were initiated under the provision* of Article XI of the final protocol sigiftd by the powers at Peking on September 7. 1901, terminating tne anii-toreign outbreak >sf the preceding year. Tlie present treaty has for its object to extend the commercial relations between the contracting powers by amending onr existing treaty of commerce and navigation with China and other subjects concerning commercial relations, with the
object of facilitating them. Tws Bare ass Nawrd Alike.
The Bureau of Navigation of the Departmea* of Commerce and Labor troubled with its name. Us mail goes to the Navy Department bureau of the same name, and rice versa, and there has been for a long time a great deal of annoyance caused by the similarity of name with such dissimilarity of work. The Bureau of Navigation of the Navy Department has charge of the assignment of officers and vessels (J the navy their various rtaviems. while the Bn- - JU of Navigation of the Department oTtConinierce and Labor has jurisdiction over the merchant shipping of the country. sees that the laws of the United States relating thereto are obeyed and attends to all the government business connected with the merchant marine. In time of exigency - the annoyance has been intensified, notoriously so during the Spanish War. when the merchant bureau received the cables intended for the navy bureau. So accustomed have the members of the two bureaus become to this misdirection *>f mail that they have had printed envelopes in which to inclose mail delivered incorrectly at either bureau, and this is no small quantity daily. Because of this it is thought that Congress will be petitioned to change the name of the Bureau of Navigation of the Department of Commerce and Labor to something like "the bureau of merchant shipping/’ and thus end the annoyance that has been of such long
the United Stats, France and Great Britain on the practical adoption ot

The treaty is mainly significant in being the culmination of the rapproche ment between France and Great Brttatr after centuries of warfare, the maintenance of defensive armaments and tlu | recent animosities growing out of thr Fashoda incident and the South African war. It is also significant of the tendency toward a rearrangement of tht

The treaty is mainly the outcome of the exchange of visits between Kinp Edward and President Lonbct and the visit of Baron trEstournellr* de Constant and the French Parliamentarian-
