Later in conversation with the correspondent of the Associated Press the General declared that the de. feat of the fleet was a sad and hard blow, but it would not affect the morale of the troops. who with the doggedness of the Russian soldier were prepared to fight on so long au, the Emperor gave the word. "If the sea is lost." he added, "Rus. sia can still be victorious on land. Pence unless Japan is roaaonable 'rs, impossible." Acting in the Interest: of Peace, With Prospects of Success. A St. Petersburg cable; President Roosevelt striving with excellent pros- peets of success to end the, war is now the central figure of the world's stage. One. of the main objects, it seems, will be over once both Japan and Russia have agreed to accept his good offices for the arrangement of the preliminaries. The helligerents are expected to be able to arrange the peace terms direct. The President is believed to share with Em. peror William the. view that the belliger- ent-t slmuhl Le allowed to settle the actual terms without outside interfer- ence. Evidence also exists that President Roosevelt has secured the support of sown-all continental powers, and that at the proper time they will appear at his buck French Ambassador Returns to Russia After Consultation. A Paris cable: M. Bompard. the French Ambassador to Russia, returns to St. Petersburg to-morrow, after a lengthy conference with President Lou- bet at the Foreign Office. in which it is understood the peace situation was fully tu,usidvritl. This will place the Ambassa- dor in a position to strongly eo-operate in the pavifie efforts of the United States and it ist intimated that he may carry an autograph letter from M.

Shah of Persia Not Actionable in the French Courts. Paris. June 12.--The court has decided that the Shah of Persia cannot be compelled to pay debts incurred in France, because he is a sovereign, and therefore not amenable to French law. The nrehiteet who erected the Persian pavilion at the Paris Exposition sent a bill to the Shah some. time ago and received a decoration for himself and medals for the workmen. The latter rejected the. medals and demanded cash for their labor. They sued the arehiteet,who was compelled to pay them. _ This caused his bankruptcy. He sub- sequently applied to the court for an- tlmrity to distrain the Shah's baggage on his forthcoming visit, but the. court refused to issue such an order, deciding as above stated.
