The possi bility of complications with Great Britain, due to the notions of the vo unteer squadron of tbe Rod sea seiz. ing a number of British vessels, bas overshadowed for a time the war sit uation in the Far Cast. The general public accept tbe British representa tions, but tbe official world meets tbe ituation with unusual equanimity It 1b generally believed that unless rue Russian vessels have oommltted a grave mistake in the seizing of the British government Boares bound for the east Russia probably will be pre pared to "taainlaia the' justice of th seizure and if a mistake has been made the government no doubt, will hastily order the release of the vessels and make financial settlement with Great Britain for their ' detention. Both powers, while standing on their rights, doubtles will make every effort to avoid a rapture. Nor Is it believe I that Britain iutenda to reopen the Dardanelles question except perhaps as a last resort. LONDON IS BITTER London, July 21. As a result of the seizure of British vessels by tbe ".iifei an volunteer nett the feeling In Great Britain tonight is violen'ly hostile Tbe most conservative frankly declare for a policy of reprisal againet what ia regarded by them aa Russia's vio lations of a treaty and her piratical attacks on Briti-h commerce The most conservative and influential papers in the kingdom ure extremely warlike in tone and the storm of indignation among all classes is so great that the government Itself cannot gauge its strength. Those few oflloiala at the foreign office who ard in full possession of all the details of Great Brilain'a desire to arrive at au entente with Russia are in despair. They realize that a policy so carefully fostered by King Edward and foreign Minister Lansdowne, now being indignantly repudiated by all In tbe house ol commons, will involve with the public the down full of any Paris, July 21. The Temps, die cussing the passage of the Vladlvostock squadron through tbe atraita of Tsu garn, says Its purpose was either to attack the unprotected citi.a on the eastern coast of Japan or to Intercept American merchant steamers which are supplying Japan with all aorta of provisions through the port of Yoko hama.
