SHOW RUSSIAN FUNDS London March Yt According , to t'e Bl Petersburg correp-ndnt of the London Daily Mail, the Rusiiau Foreign Hin'mter on being requested by some foreign correspondents to prove to tbem thai the Rusiao reserve was intact, Mot them to the keeper of the national treasury with an order tbt they be permitted to view the funds of the empire.' 'It Was stated tbat there wan in the treasury 888,000,000 told roubles, and tbat in addition this amount could be swelled by 120,000,000 on deposit in Londoii and Paris. There is. also said by the minister to be some 320,000,000 gold roubles on. deposit to the credit of legstions of Russia in London, Paris and Berlin, which would be available for use should the necessity sriae. Minister Kokovstoff further stated that negotittions tor floating addi tional loan in Paris were progressing favorably. ' The possibilities of arranging peace between Kuesia and Japa and th financial contest between the two countries is attracting greater atten lion for the moment than the strategic developments in Maooburia. Compari sons are drawn between the respective status of the two nstions in the money market now and at the beginning of J the war. The spectacle of the Russian minis ter of fiaanoe inviting newspaper edi tors and correspondents to verify by pesonal inspection the national bul- lion deposits, while Japan is negotia ting an enormous loan on better terms than her previous small, timid issues, puts the development cf the credit of the two belligerents into vivid conliasi, and is greatly com mented on. The London papers express little doubt tbat Russia will obtain her loan in France eventually, but on bard terms. It is reported that the new Japanese loan will be fuiy under written and that dealings bave been at a substantial premium.
