ATTITUDE OFfTHE POWERS.' An investigation shows that most of the Europeau powers are pro-Russia iu regard to the far eastern controversy. In this France is strongest, then Aus tria and Germany. Italy and England are staunch supporters of Japan, and Sweden is turning that way. Three more heavy failures are re ported in Paris today on account of the shrinkage in value of' Russian secur ities.

The Ilupio arbitration tribunal. th the cut he Is shown at the bead of lilt several days, and there has been no material action of the war fleets since Feb. 20. The operations of the Japan ese fleet are now kept as closely con coaled as ihutof the Russians' Vladivo stok ttjuadron. It is thought the lat ter has gone back to the harbor. Russia Is said to have cancelled all their orders for railroad material, which had been placed in Germany, because of their inability to protect the railroad line owned 'by Russia between Port Arthur and Ilarbin from assaults by the Japanese. The Japs, so U Is al leged, now think the enemy has only about 40,000 soldiers along the Yalu river. It is thought, however, that there is a subtle reason for giving out such optimistic reports. Japan la not wholly pleased with the action of China In threatening to take a hand In the present struggle, as it is feared such action will bring about trouble In Europe.
