Jose Eugenlo Marx, a prominent business man of Hanava, especially In terested In the religi us development of the RMado district of that city, has Just sillej for Hamburg after several conferences with mission boards here.

(Oorrepond"nce of Aaorlat'j Pre.) ST. PETBRSBU.'IO. Friday June 14. Thtf determination of the government to construct th much tilkd of Viat ka railroad which U to connect 8t. Petersburg directly wl'h the S.berian railroad on its own account, seems to have been rei'h"-d as a last resort. Th concession was off.-r.rd with more or l"is official anctlon.' to half a dozen American capitalistic groups. owing to the sparxene and poverty of th" population in the province to b traversed, th? interest aroused was nsver more than iukewirm. One group repr-sente.. it I naJd. by Mr. Crane, of Chicago, made, a conditional off-r. It w.iul I discuss matters provided two-4 thirdji of the road bed. brldg.-s ind rolling stork m l othi-r materials might be Imported from the United States. This condition could not be consid-red. The Idle Russian manufacturers would have protested most strongly. The talk of inrher foreign loan this time it is a German loan I?, the cor respondent f the Associated Pres Is Informel on .rood authrity, somewhat mlsleidlng for the reason that th? min ister of finance pledged his word to the Roths-'hilds. when the last loan was made, not to further engage Rus sian credit at prssent This precludes the Issuance of guaranteed railroad bonds. The French loan Is Insufficient. It is only a drop of water on the parch ed tongue of the Iron Industrialists whose main stay Is government orders. It will have to do for the present, how ever, and it is not expected that new railroad work will advance rapidly. The Vlatka road will probably only be sur veyed this year. NOW A SHIPPING TRUST.
