Manchester, Feb. 24.—In military circles it is generally believed that orders have been quietly given to the First British army corps to hold itself in readiness for its departure to India within a few days. The rumor that the Russian Vladivostok squadron has again put to sea lacks confirmation. When the senate went into executive session to bring the Panama canal treaty to a vote the amendments which were offered by the committee on foreign relations and afterward withdrawn were again offered aud voted down. The Bacon amendment, providing for a treaty with Colombia with a view to satisfying any future demands of that country on account of the secession of Panama, also Was rejected by a vote of 24 to 40.

Murray Crane of Massachusetts was there some weeks ago In conference with the president, who asked him, it is understood, to become chairman if Senator Hanna should decline to serve.

He concluded by saying: "With God's help and convinced of the right of our cause, I am persuaded that the army and fleet will do all that Is due to the valiant arms of Russia and will maintain the honor and glory of the empire." Mr. Crane at that time was averse to accepting. He stands high in the business world, particularly in New York city, and his election to the chairmanship would be valuable to Mr. Roosevelt for that reason. l*he question whether the committee shall be called together in the near future for this purpose or whether action shall be deferred until after the national convention will be decided, soon.

Your correspondent yesterday polled all Europe through correspondents and the results show that, so far as sympathy goes, Napoleon's prediction that Europe would be all Republican or all Cossack has been fulfilled by Its being all Cossack.

"How the Japanese can hope to succeed when our army in the east is strengthened to a point equal or superior in numbers to that of our adversaries we are honestly unable to comprehend. It will not be difficult to place 200,000, 400,000 or even 600,000 additional" men in the field if necessary. AVlien our forces are ready they will finish by driving the Japanese into the sea. 5'rankly, it seems to us that the Japanese either have utterly failed to appreciate Russia's resources or have counted on the aid of Great Britain or the United States, neither of which ever contemplated becoming involved." WATCHES Evans Bros. WATCHES London, Feb. 24—The correspondent of the Exchange Telegraph Co., at Paris, says it is reported there that Japan has proclaimed a protectorate oyer Korea. Mr. Berry (Ark.) said that if he believed the defeat of the treaty would restore Colombia's sovereignty over Panama he would vote against the convention. He said he believed our navy supported the revolution and that this government was responsible for the new republic, but it has been proved that the president would not build a canal on the Nicaragua route.

Washington, Feb. 24.—The State Department has received advices that Japan and Korea have concluded the negotiation of a treaty guaranteeing to Korea her independence and integrity. The move is regarded here as a most effective answer to Russia's representations that Japan had violated the neutrality and integrity of Korea. The Japanese who were hanged by Russians in Manchuria for attempting to blow up the railroad bridge over the Sungari river were disguised as coolies and were arrested just as they were about to make the attempt.
