PARIS. Jan. 31. Another delay has occurred in framing and forwarding the Russian answer to the latest Japanese note, and this will result in further averting the culmination of the crisis until the middle or the latter part of this week. The advices received her? from St. Petersburg to-day. although somewhat negative, gave definite details of the status of the note and the programme it was intended to follow. Count Lamsdorff, the Russian foreign minister, had expected that the exchanges going ou would have permitted the final drafting of the answer so that It could have been presented to the Czar yesterday lor his approval, but the expectation was not realized, and as a matter of fact the answer has not yet been finally drafted. It was therel-ore determined to defer Its submission to the Czar until next Tuesday or Wednesday. Efforts are still being made to so shape this answer as to prevent a rupture. This new delay is Interpreted as slightly improving the situation, as it Indicates that Russia is making extreme efforts to bring the answer withiu limits acceptable to Japan. , Owing to the fact that the Russian answer is not completed, it is pointed out that the reports concerning its general terms must be taken with allowance, as the delay indicates that some of the points which presented the most serious difficulties may yet be reconciled. Throughout the past week the authorities here have been kept fully advised of the general tendencies of Russia, but they have not known whether these tendencies would be Incorporated in the answer by which Russia would irrevocably abide. JAP AX MOBILIZING ON LAND AND SEA LONDON. Feb. L-Caron Hayashi. the Japanese minister to Great Britain, said I i-t nfl(M that his government did not know what Russia's answer would be and that it was, therefore, impossible to say whether war was probable or not. The fact that the Russian reply had not yot been dispatched showed, according to the minister, that Ru.-sia's decision had not yet been taken, as it was hardly probable if a decision had h en reached that the note should be delayed. A dispatch received here from Tien-Tsin says Russia is purchasing large quantities of Kaiping coal for Immediate delivery at Port Arthur, where the stocks of coal are believed to be running low. The correspondent of the Daily Mail at Che-Poo cables he has learned that the Japanese naval reserves were mobilized last week, and that trie first army reserve was partly mobilized with great secrecy, the troops arriving at their destinations disguised as coolies. Over 100 transports have been requisitioned, the correspondent continues, and twenty-eight transports and thirty-eight warships are lying at Sasehu. north by west of Nagasaki. Forty transports filled with the Kumnnato division are lying In Takeshiki harbor in T8u Shlma ready for invasion. The destination of these latter vessels is believed to be Chung-Yu. whence tie isolation of Korea could be easily effect -d. "The Russian and Japanese authorities," the same correspondent continues, "profess ignorance of the Argun Incident, but I learn that the Jatanese cruiser Chiiodn signaled the Argun to stop, and as no notice of this was taken, fir.'d across the bows of the Argun, whereupon the Russian steamer, which was beyond neutral waters, stopped and the Chiioda sent a search party on board." The correspondent of the Morning Post at Cho-Foo cables that a British vessel and some others engaged In a regular service to Port Arthur had been stopped when about to enter that port. Competent judges, the Post's correspondent goes on, predict the total failure of the Russian commissariat in the event of prolonged hostilities. Tenor of Reply Not Known. WASHINGTON. Jan. 31. Information received at the State Department is to the effect that the Russian reply to Japan's last note on the far Eastern question will be made the early part. of the present week. The tenor of the prospective communication is not known here. BRITISH ARMY TO BE SHORN OF ITS HEAD Office of Commander-in-Chief to Be Abolished and a Military Board to Be Constituted. LONDON, Jan. 31. The report of the royal commission known as the Lord Esher Commission, whic h was apiointed last November for the purpose of advising the governmt nt concerning the creating of a board for the administrative business of the War Office, has been issued, and it confirms the change foreshadowed by the Associated Pre.-s on Nov. 28. namely, that the post of commander-in-chief of the army be abolished. With the approval of the King, and acting on the recommendations of the commission, the government has decided to appoint an army council, framed on the admiralty model; to abolish the office of commander-in-chief of the army, and to create a new post, that of inspector general, whose principal duty will be to inspect and report on the efficiency of the military forces. NO TRUTH IN STORY PRINTED IN AMERICA Russia Denies Allegations That 50 Officers and 1,000 Men Were Killed During Maneuvers. ST. PETERSRCRG. Jan. 31 Further Investigation of the story published In the Cnited States under a Berlin date to the effect that during recent maneuvers of Russian troops a bridge was blown up by order of Grand Duke Serg. Governor General of Moscow, resulting in the killing or wounding of fifty officers and 1,000 men, proves it to be absolutely false. The report is evidently a revamp of an accident which occurred during the maneuver of the summer of 1HMC. Grand Duke Serge was then defending Moscow against General Kuropatkin. Owing to a r.istaken order, which was not given by the grand duke, a few men were killed at the blowing up of a bridge. Root mid Taft nt White House. WASHINGTON. Jan. 31 Secretary and Mrs. Root spent their last evening of official life in Washington In dining with the ri-.-ldeiu and Mrs. Roosevelt a. the White House to-r.ight. letter Governor Taft called at the White lb. use and. with the President and the sei-t . tu y, discussed for ome time matters relating to the Philippines. flltTN I'lnccd in the Army.

"JAPANESE" OF "AFRICA MARSEILLES. Jan. 31.-The following details of the governmental mission to King Meijeiik, of Abys. inia, which was led by United States Consul Robert P. Skinner, have been obta ned. Mr. Skinner's party arrived here yesterday on board the steamer Victoria. The American marines and bl'iejackets who accompanied the expedition were left at Aden, and went on to join the American gunboat Machias. Consul Skinner and the other members of the party are in gonl health, and they sneak enthusiastically of the reception accorded them by King Menelik. On the way to the coast the party saw an elephant and heard a numkr of lions, but experienced no exciting adventures. In the course oi an interview Mr. Skinn r said: "President Roosevelt selected a most opportune time for establishing relations with Ethiopia, as Americans heretofore have been too indifferent to the remarkable development which is now going on in Abyssinia, Our cotton goods pass through many hand before being sold at high prices in Abyssinia, but now Americans have an opportunity to conduct their own trade. King Menelik will send some of the products of his country to the St. Louis exposition, as well as a commission composed of able men to show the Americans the commercial opportunities in Abyssinia. The King is a broad-minded statesman, who will welcome Americans." During the visit of the Skinner party at the capital King Meneük received them, surrounded by an imposing assemblage of 2.uon funt tlonnries. The escort of American marines established a camp called "Camp Roosevelt." which attracted a great deal of Interest. The King made a personal inspection of the camp which lasted for three hours, and. after havlifg witnessed the maneuvers of the marines, he asked one of the men for his gun. and loaded and fired it. This act on the part of the King pleased the visitors preatly. The Americans were Impressed with the assimilative ability of the Abyssinlans, Consul Skinner saying that the country is being rapidly modernized, and that new roads, bridges, water supplies, telephones and telegraph lines are being constructed. He considers the Abyssinlans to be the Japanese of Africa. He points out, however, that the postal and banking systems arc defective and unsatisfactory. The money is ou a silver basis. Consul Skinner believes that Americans will find a large field for activity in the gold, coal, petroleum and asphalt possibilities of Abyssinia. An official report of the result of the mission has been forwarded to Washington. I J IMMINENCE OF CIVIL j WAR IN ABYSSINIA

ROME. Jan. 31. According to nws received by the Foreign Office herf: King Menelik is not likely to leave Abyssinia because of the political situation there. There is already a candidate for succession to the throne, und he fears that his departure would be a signal for civil warfare-among the chiefs. It is therefore considered impossible for the King to visit the St. Louis Exposition. , GAS EXPLOSION KILLS' TWO AND INJURE SIX Leak from Mains Into a Pittsburg Cellar Gas Ignited from a Lighted Candle. PITTSni'RO, Jan. 31. An explosion of natural gas In the cellar of the home of Henry Magcl, in West Liberty, to-day was the cause of the deaths of two persons and the severe injury of six others.

PROFESSOR DIED MARTYR TO SCIENCE While Experimenting Was Overcome bv the Deadlv Fumes of Prussic Acid. ROME. Jan. 31 Professor Vincent Rodella. a well-known scientist, has been accidentally killed while carrying out some experiments. He was distilling' prussic acid and cyanide of potassium when somewhat carelessly he seems to have leaned over the mixtures, and was choked by the dense, poisonous fumes. Some attendants found him lying dead on the floor of the laboratory. The professor, who was only thirty, was highly popular among the students of the university, and it has been decided to place a medallion with his portrait in the hall of the college, with the inscription, "Died too young, but not without glory."

CONVENTION IN AUGUST DETROIT, Jan. 31. About 2.000 persons were present in Light Guard Armory this afternoon at a mass meeting which marked the close of the semi-annual meeting of the advisory board and executive board of the American Federation of Catholic So i. ti. Col. Caspar Schulte, president of the Wayne County Federation of Catholic Societies, presided, and Mayor William C. Alaybury delivered an address of welcome. Speaking of the alms of the federation. Bishop McFaul, of Trenton, N. J., said that It would accomplish much in the direction of doing away with two greit deficiencies of the Catholic Church. One of these, he said, was the lack of a recognized and organised Catholic opinion, the other being the lack of an organ to disseminate such an opinion If It existed. Meetings and conventions of the federation, said Bishop McFaul. would answer the purpose of crystallizing and disseminating the opinions of the church on such questions as divorce and education. "Retain the present public school systems," said Bishop McFaul. "but do not bar Catholics out of th ir rights as citizens. The federation has taken an admirable stand on this question. Its platform is: That there shall be no public moneys paid out for relifti us instruction in any school. But let the State examine our schools, and if, on examination, it Is found that we are giving the children an education which comes up to the requirements of the State, then let the State pay for it." Other speakers were T. B. Mlnihan. of New York; Walter G. Smith, of Philadelphia; Bishop John S. Foley, of Detroit; Nicholas Gönner, of Dubuque, la,, and Archbishop Mi.ssmer. of Milwaukee. At its final session to-day the executive board changed the date for the annual convention at Detroit from July 19 to Aug. 2. The board decided that a special organization fund of $3,000 should be raised and also called upon members to make a contribution of 25 cents to the Catholic Indian bureau at Washington for work among the Indians.

CHICAGO RICH PEOPLE SCATHEÖJH PREACHER He Declares They Are Pagans and Are Doing Nothing for the Salvation of the City. PREDICTS A CLASS WAR CHICAGO, Jan. 31. The Rev. Dr. James S. Stone, rector of St. James Episcopal Church, the membership of which is largely made up of wealthy persons, caused comment when in the course of a sermon today he denounced the rich of Chicago. He said, in part: "That there are multitudes in this city who neither fear God nor regard man." said Dr. Stone. "Is largely due to two causes; one the Ignorance or weakness of many congregations; and the other, the Irreligion of our influential and well-to-do people. There are many exceptions, noble and praiseworthy, for which we thank God and tnk- courage. But for the greater part the people of financial and social Influence in Chicago the people who could, if they would, do so much for the salvation of tincity, the people that are going to suffer the most in that terrible conflict between the classes that Is threatening this country, the nearness of which seems apparent and the center of which will be this very city, the end of which no man knows these people who should be the first in Christian example, and in every good work, are living the lives of pagans; nice pagans, if you will, but as surely pagans."

Whose

done CAUSEJJMIEGRO RACE State of Southern Feeling Decried from Pulpit by the Rev. Mr. Tippy. WHITE MAN'S BURDEN "The Qu stion of the Negro" was the subject which the Rev. Worth M. Tippy used at the Broadway M. E. Church last evening. Mr. Tippy said: "Almost every race that holds its present territory came there by migration and conquest. The white race came from the neighborhood of the Caucacus, lighting Its way Into Egypt, Greece, Rome, Europe and Ameri i. "So far as I know the negro race - has never moved out of Its continent. The negro came to America, not as a conquering race, but in the holds of slave shl)is. There were a million of them in lsos when the nonimportation act was passed. The race has Increased from l.OOO.d) In 1808 to nearly 10,000,699 at the present time. I suppose there is not a more difflcilt question before us than what to do with the negro In America. The state of feeling on the question Is oecomlng extrern-ly sensitive and dangerous. Within the last year the opposition to the negro has lneraaaad rapidly. "This is shown by the movement for disfranchisement in the South, closing of hotels, jim-crow cars, by fearful vengeance in ca3es of assault and by the increasing sentiment to cut off the negro's opportunity for education and to limit his economic freedom." Mr. Tippy then discussed the different solutions for the race question. "I am convinced that the American people will give the negro a fair chance," he said. JEWS MAY BLOCK LOAN IF CZAR DECLARES WAR Hebrew Bankers of Europe to Combine Against Lending Money to Russia. BERLIN. Jan. 31. A movement has been started among prominent Jewish financiers In several European capitals, including Berlin, to prevent countries whose governments systematically encourage anti-Semitism from obtaining required loans. Jewish financiers possess so much Influence In the money markets of Berlin, London, Paris, etc.. that a big loan in impossible without Jewish gold. On the other hand, the two countries which are most in need of foreign loans Russia and Roumanla are those in which official Jw-baitlng is most prevalent. In the event of war with Japan. Russia would be seriously embarrassed bj' an organized financial boycott. It remains to be seen whether this boycott can be carried out. If Jewish financiers In Europe are able to come to an arrangement. Israelite bankers in New York will be subsequently invited to co-operate In the movement.

FARMERS

OPPOSE N MEATS Butchers Also Against the Intro duction of Beef and Pork from America. VIENNA, Jan. 31. The efforts of the Municipal Council to reduce the price of meat to the people of Vienna by securing the importation of transatlantic meat products are meeting with very strong opposition from agrarian interests. Association of farmers and cattle men and peasants' unions throughout Austria have addressed telegrams of protest to the Ministry. of the Interior and the City Council urging that Irreparable damage would be d ne the agricultural Interests of the country by the importation of meat from the othe side of the Atlantic. The butchers of Vienna being opposed to the sale of foreign meat, the Pork Butchers' Association has taken up the matter and now announce that the first shipment of Argentine beef to Vienna mill arrive here next Tuesday. It appears to be very doubtful, however, whether th government will permit this shipment to be sold. During the past few days agents of prominent American packing houses have been Investigating the local situation, but they appear to think that the present is not a favorable time to enter the Austrian market.
