AN ALARMING VIEW Japanese Statesmen Recognize the Imminence of War With Russia. If This War Is Ever Declared It Is Felt That It May Continue For Years. Both Japan and Russia Are Getting Ready Their Fighting Clothes. Tokio, July 24.—Rather an alarming view of the situation in the East is taken by many thoughtful observers in the Japanese capital. Russia's retention of Manchuria, the increase of her fleet, the despatch of reinforcements to Manchuria, the southward movement of the occupying army in Manchuria and the defiant conduct on the Korean frontier have alarmed the Japanese, many of whom are convinced that it would be better to fight now than risk the eventual loss of Korea and the relegation of Japan to a secondary place. The Japanese are accumulating stores and negotia' ing the purchase of ships; a squadron is off Vladivostock, to which port Russian vessels have been sent as a precaution. and both fleets are ready for action at any moment. A perusal of the Siberian press reveals the aggres I sive spirit of the Russian military I party; that the Russians believe they j will lose prestige if they give way now, I with the result that their far Eastern ; empire will be lost and Japanese inI fluence will become predominant. The appointment of Marquis Ito as presi . dent of the privy council seems favor-, able to peace, but Russia must retreat or there wit] be g danger of war. The Japanese believe Frame and Eng ' land will join in the expected conflict. I which diplomatists at Tokio think 1 might, if once begun, continue for years, involving disastrous results to Japanese finance and the creation of a sort of Balkan difficulty in Korea. Con j fidence is shown in the Anglo-Japanese alliance. Russian Activities Increaced. Tien Tsia. July 24.—Since the 15th I of this month there has been an Inces sant increase in the concentration of Russian forces at Port Arthur and elsewhere, many .who were ostenst bly emigrants being in reality soldiers. I There is not the slightest evidence that Russia intends to withdraw or moderate her policy. CHANGE OF COMMAND. Gen. Wade Will Succeed Davis In the Philippines. Washington. July 24.—Acting Adjutant General Hall has been notified VTO&A ff , eXMEIAL JAMBS F. WADB. that Major General James F. Wads wilt relieve Major General George W.

St. Louis, July 24. —A mob mads a desperate but unsuccessful effort last night to lynch John Davis, a negro, who had just shot and killed his wife. Tb« police piotected their prisoner against the mob and landed him safely Id jail Counterfeiting Union Label. New York.

BURIED THE HATCIsET. ] King and Queen Having Such a Nice ■ Time In Ireland. Dublin. July 24.—The king and queen held splendid court at the castle last night in the famous St Patrick's hall, which was gorge msly decorated and 111 imir.ated for the occasion. Their majesties entered the hall at 10:30 1 o’clock with all the accompaniments I of stat? and took their places near the throne, which was the center of a brilliant group, including the Duke and Duchess of Connaught anil Earl Dudley and other high state officers in full uniform. There they received the most representative body of the Irish nobil ity and the Irish people which has been seen at the castle in many years Queen Alexandria wore a cream colored gown embroidered with gold She wore vari-colored jewels in .he form of sharnro s and her diamond orna ments were set in designs of rose, thistle and shamrock. The Influence of the sovereigns secured a social union which English statesmen had vainly sought to attain The Irish guards acted as a guard of honor and the grand staircase was lined with lancers. It was a function of regal magnificence and it was not until the last name on the list had been read and the last debutante had made her curtsey that their majesties quitted the scene. UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER. Chicago Teamsters' Union Gives Up Unpopular Cause. Chicago, July 24.—Rebuked for violating its agreements by the very unions it had been trying to aid and under strong public criticism for al | leged lawless methods, the teamsters union last night abandoned its sym pathetic strike against the Kellogg Switchboard and Supply Company i Complete and unconditional surrender l I of the teamsters underlies this action, which appears to avert all possibility I of the general labor war tn Chicago, which Albert Young, president of the: I teamsters’ national i nion declared he I I would precipitate before Ijis union | could be toned to give iip the flght. The Other unions involved will now I continue the strike alone and their first step which was decided on last night will be an attempt to bring the federation of labor into the struggle.
