The news from Rus ria ha? b?en so fragmentary and confused that the truth can only he sparingly gleaned, but the area from which public disturbance* and military outrages have been reported is so great that the empire may be described as in revolt against the existing order. When disaffection if so widespread among the stagnant peasantry It is hardly credible that depleted armies can be heavily reinforced by conscripts or the war profecuted with any vigor, yet the demoralized grand dukes seem incapable of pulling them selves together and negotiating peace for the exhausted and bankrupt empire President Roosevelt and Secretary Hay are generally credited in diplomatic circles here with the session of enormous moral power in influencing peace negotiations whenever these may be undertaken seriously. There is every in dication that the State Department is receiv ing strong purport from the Foreign Office in all measures for safeguarding the Integrity of China and holding both belligerents rigorously to the fulfilment of international pledges. This moral accord between the two governments is. perhaps, more important than any action which may b? taken by the Senate on arbitration treaties. liploaaattc changes announced from err in have been an op>en secret, •with Bm f-xrepticn of Ambassador Meyer's transfer v M Petersburg and the substitution of Am- V>EP?ad'-,'- McCormick for Ambassador Porter at Paris Henry White's transfer to Rome Is re . as a well earned honor and reward, after onped service at the American Embassy Regret over his departure is tempered mith the tatisfaction that the post of first sec retary will be taken, without doubt, by J. R. Carter, a most efficient and tactful official, with • ars' experience at the embassy. Sir Furdon Clarke started quietly for New- T«-.-l! tr.-lay or. the Campania without other comment than that the visit would be a short or.c for the exchange of views with the trustees of the M-tropolltan Museum. A short session of Parliament is again pre dicted by the political gossips, but there Is evi dence fairly conclusive that the Prime Minister intends to hold hie ground and to fight with his back to the wall. Mr. ■VTyndham, his closest political adviser, has made this dear by his ppesch this week. There will be no riding for a fall on the Aliens bill, and the Liberals must defeat the Ministry on some minor Issue like the Irish amendment to the address or the re ligious question in order to turn them out. The budget speech is less likely to bring on a crisis Char seemed probable two months ago. The Treasury receipts have been heavily Increased by the pressure for payments. The natural ex planation of the unusual means in expediting the collection Is the urgent need of money for current expenies. The government, like ,a spendthrift living beyond his means, Is com pelled to anticipate its Income. The current balance sheet is forced at the expense of the next one. when the arrears will be comparatively light. The Liberals say this illustrates "The Hake's Progress" In politics, but they know how difficult will be Mr. Asqulth's task In the Treas ury when h* seeks to reduce the outlay of the great spending departments and to balance ac counts by the ordinary expedients of Free Trade. Earl Bpencer*s manifesto shows that an alter native government has already been arranged with a moderate programme in which Home Rule in Ireland is barely remembered, and the revision of the Education act is made a con spicuous feature. Mr. Asquitb's presence at the coriference at Spencer House is a sign that Lord Koaebsry will take the Foreign Office and Sir Charles Dilke be left In retirement. While the Radicals have nominated Earl Spencer for Prim* Minister, Lord Rosebery has shrewdly «i:pported them by agreeing to serve under him. He has thereby secured the reversion of the leadership when Earl Spencer's health fails. Sir Hp Ery Campbell-Bannerman has taken refuge to the TTar Office and the House of Lords.

I. N. F. TOPICS IX PARIS. i , Appeals for — End of Con cordat Welcome — Loss of the Sully. (Special to The N»w-Tork Tribune by French Cable.) fCopyrlirht. 1905. by The Tribune Association.) Paris. Feb. 11.— Liberal French papers, notably the "Petit Parisian" and the Socialist "Petite Republique." are publishing each day appeals for peace to Russia and Japan. The French capitalists who are carrying a vast amount of Russian securities feel their interests Injured by the prolongation of the war, and ear nestly Join in the chorus for peace, but In official diplomatic circles not the slightest foundation for hopes of peace can be detected. The Czar and his advisers still count upon victory in Manchuria and persistently refuse to listen to those who urge the government- to take the initiative In behalf of cessation v of hostilities. The Russian difficulties are further Increased by the stand made by the public in France and Germany, who express a firm determination not to Invest any more money in Russian loans, the bulk of the last loan having been taken up not by the public but by the large financial estab lishments that hold money in readiness to buy up Russian bonds and maintain the present high Quotation. The decision of the Chamber of Deputies to enact the separation of church and state at the present session— that Is, before the end of July is welcomed throughout the country, with the sole exception of Brittany, as the only possible solution. Thus the Combes policy, with the elimination of some of its needlessly inquisi torial, annoying details of execution, continues the keynote of the Rouvier Cabinet. Telegrams from Hai-Phong give only faint hopes at the Ministry of Marine of saving the armored cruiser Sully, which went on the reefs in the Bay of Along. The Sully is one of the latest and best ships In the French navy, and cost $5,000,000. Her loss elicits general indigna tion against M. Pelletan, ex-Minister of Marine, for allowing, contrary to the warnings of the naval officers, the Sully to leave France with out properly testing her steering capacity, the defects of which are stated to have been the cause of the disaster. The news of the nomination of Robert Mc- Cormlck as General Porter's successor at the Paris Embassy, which is published, together with the future Ambassador's portrait. In the leading French papers, causes an excellent im pression in Paris, where Mr. McCormick has been a frequent visitor and where he has many warm personal friends in diplomatic circles and in French society. The Municipal Council of the City of Paris, hy unanimous vote, has intrusted to the painter Georges Picard the decoration of the friezes of the eighteen halls at the Hotel de Ville. the ceil ings of which were decorated with allegorical figures and motifs by the same artist in 1900. Georges Picard is now considered, since the death of the late Puvis de Chavannes, the ablest decorative painter among contemporary French artiste. A great deal of inaccurate information is published here concerning the endowment of the Rheumatism Hospital in Paris founded by Mr. and Mrs. William K. Vandervilt. As a matter of fact for two years past Mr. and Mrs. Van derbilt In a quiet and unostentatious way have maintained a private hospital and clinic for the treatment of poor patients. The building in the Rue Leonard de Vinci, which will be completed in a few weeks, is merely a dispensary capable of treating a dozen patients. It is situated within a stone's throw of the Vanderbilt resi dence in the Rue Leroux. where Mrs Vander bilt can conveniently supervise her charitable work. Dr. George Gautier, who has charge of the institution, is rather a free lance in science, neither a member of the Academy of Medicine nor a member of the Institute. Dr. Armand Gautier. professor of the faculty of medicine of Paris, has hastened to put on record that he is in no way connected with Dr. George Gautier. The latter, a 6imple, unpretentious, straightfor ward man. seems thoroughly in earnest in re gard to his task and its responsibilities, al though conservative members of the faculty here regard his methods of treatment as prob lematic. Another successful American musician has come to the front in the person of Miss Julia Klumpke. sister of the painter who became the heiress of Rosa Bonheur and of the Miss Klumpke who Is* recognized as the most eminent female astronomer in Europe. Miss Julia Klumf'ke made her debut as a violinist at the Salle Pleyel on Tuesday. Her violin recitals, which comprised difficult allegros and andantes from Beethoven. Mendelssohn and Cesar Franck. are highly commended by Theodore Dubois. di rector of the Conservatory of Music and by the Parisian musical critics. The society function of the week was the wedding of Count Gabriel de la Rochefoucauld with Mile, de Richelieu, sister of the Duke de Richelieu. The bride's mother was. a Miss Heine, who married. the first Duke de Richelieu and afterward the Prince of Monaco, and is consequently a great-niece of Heine, the poet, while her husband, Gabriel de la Rochefoucauld, i* a great grandson of the author of the famous maxims and himself a man of letters, whose dar ing psychological novel "Amant et Medecln." treats of a lover's Jealousy of his sweetheart's pbfslflsn.

Ministry's Intention Not to Resign on a Minor Defeat. London. Feb. 11. Parliament opens on next Tuesday, when King Edward, with picturesque pomp, will go from Buckingham Palace to Westminster, where he will deliver the speech from the throne. This spectacular feature will be the curtain raiser to a grim struggle of long or short duration between Prime Minister Bal four's administration and the Liberal oppo sition. Closest observers are unable to gauge the staying powers of the government. Rumors of a defeat of the government are as rife and as positive as were the statements made a year ago, when the predictions gave Mr. Balfour only Strength sufficient to read the Budget. Now it is confidently stater} that dissolution will come quickly. even. within the limit of debate on the address in reply to the speech from the throne, which will last about two weeks. Whips from the government and Opposition sides have received warnings to be ready for a general election call by the Opposition, whose leaders express the firm conviction that the government will be unable to maintain a ma jority and is certain of defeat, either as the re sult of desertion hy Unionists when the ques tion of free food comrs up. or of apathy on the part of the Ministerialists. On the other hand, Mr. Balfour and many of the more prominent members of the Unionist party assert in positive terms that they can be defeated only by the failure of the Unionist members to do their duty, and that the government will not resign unless it is defeated on an important division. The session, especially during the earlier days, is bound to be full of intense Interest, and the Opposition undoubtedly intends to hang on to the heels of the government, losing no oppor tunity to catch it off its guard. As usual, the Irish vote is largely in doubt, and will be able to command at least careful consideration from both sides, and perhaps se . cure further concessions. A meeting of the Irish party was held at the Mansion House, Dublin, to-day, but there was nothing done to indicate any particular programme. John Red mond was again elected chairman of the party, and the whips and other officers were re-elected. The meeting lasted only twenty minutes. The Alien bill and the question of the unem ployed will give opportunities to both sides to bid for popular support. Three thousand un employed held a meeting in Trafalgar Square to-day, at which the speakers . announced the Intention to bombard Westminster with depu tations. The debate on the address in reply to the speech from the throne will be followed by a vote for supplies, and little legislation of Im portance may be expected before Easter. Al most all interests, therefore, will be centred In offensive and defensive tactics. The Opposi tion doubtless will endeavor in various ways to censure the government early in the debate on the address, and also to introduce a free food resolution calculated to catch those on the government benches who are pledged to free food. The government will have to face a heavy at tack on its military policy, and it is significant that some of the stronges^jiewspapers support ing protection and the government have openly and persistently attacked the.

Sylvester Scovel. who wan a native of Ohio, was imprisoned hy the Spaniards during the Cuban war, but was released at the request of the- Amer ican government. FRANCE'S KUPTTJRE WITH VATICAN. Passage of Separation Bill Assured — A Plan at Rome. Paris. Feb. 11.— The action of the Chamber of Deputies last night in votiner overwhelmingly to be gin the debate on the bill providing for the separa tion of church and state immediately after the budget and military bill debate?, means that this measure is about to become a law. The budeet la almost completed, and the military bill has already been discussed hy both chambers, so the way will be clear in a few weeks to begin the consideration of the separation question. The Ministerial bill, presented on Thursday, doubtless will be changed, but it 1? now conceded that it will pass. Evrn the Clerical element in the Chamber of Deputies has announced its willing ness to accept the measure. About the only ques tion remaining is an amendment to the bill so as to insure reMgious freedom under the new law, and to avert hardships attending the abandonment of a system which has existed for centuries. Rome, Feb. 11. -Although the bill before the French Chamber of Deputies providing for the separation of church and state is expected to pass, the Vatican authorities still hope to retain a hold on Franc* through the question of the protectorate over Catholics in the East. There were negotia tions on the subject at the end of 1900 and the he ginning of 1901. when the Sultan of Turkey, whos relatlons with France at that time were srralned. Informed the Pope that >je intended to accredit fi representative to the Holy See. When Emperor William went to Jerusalem he urged the Sultan to do s*r>. and through Baron yon Hertlin, who was sent on a special mission to Rome, tried to per suade the Pope to accept the Sultans offer Cardi ral Hampolla Is understood to have taken the ground that the action of the Sultan was .nerely a move to displease France, so the Pontiff refused. Now, it is asserted at the Vatican, matters may take a different turn. WILL WELCOME ME M'CORMICK. Announcement That He Will Succeed Am bassador Porter Pleases Paris. Paris.

A quiet but vigorous fight is being -made by Demo crats in this State, who arc determined to wrest control of their party from William F. Sheehan. Alton B. Parker. David B. Hill and other so-called conservative Interests dominated by Wall Street. The anti-Sheehan men, taken as a whole, might be called radicals, but their numbers include many Wall Street men hostile to those who ran the last campaign in this State and who controlled the Democratic National Committee. As outlined in The Tribune yesterday, the re organizers include Norman E^ Mack. Frank Camp bell, and probably Charles F. Murphy. Whue Mr. Mack and his following are not in themselves un usually potential, it is a fact that the tide is with the radicals in the State organization, and Mr. Mack and his friends have acted at a time when the organization is demoralized, and when it ought to be comparatively easy for them to unhorse William F. Sheehan. It is difficult at this time to forecast a line-up of the forces working for control. Many things can happen in a few weeks. At present the Mack men are working along lines harmonious with the. aims of Tammany Hall. Tammany Hal! is a good deal of a commercial Institution, but just now It would like to help drive from control of the State organization such men as William F. Sheehan. and Cord Meyer. For the n ur P°«-s of a reorganization the Tammany men are radicals and, in a way, Bryan men. Assuming that Tammany will retain the same attitude for the next year or two, or until the Sheehan-Meyer- Parker men are retired from control. Charles F. Murphy will he found working hand in glove with the Bryan men around the State. What he will do after the State committee is reorganized no one can tall at this time. The State committee is made up of fifty representatives. The line-up, if such it can bo called at this time, on the Sheehan issue is about as follows: RADICALS. Controlled by Charles F. Murphy: Joseph Cassldy. j John W. Webber. William A. Doyle. James Shevlin. . John U Shea. Daniel k.. Finn. Timothy li. Sullivan. John ,T. OaJU«>y £ P. H. Keahon. Charles i .Murphy. Francis B.

Rodie and Cord Meyer will retire in favor of three men. who be lieve that It is time for the State organization to make a ••bluff." at least, at getting closer to the people. William F. Sheehan shows not the slightest dis position to retire from control of the. State execu tive committee. In the last two weeks he has been sending for various members of the State and. ex ecutive committees and Bounding them on the feasi bility of making ex-Judge Herrick the State leader. This would be a blind for retaining control himself, and it is so understood by Mack and others up the State. Sheehan has not the solid backing of the Wail Street Democrats. His management of the last campaign did not please them. Powerful In terests In Wall Street are hostile to his further control of the State machine. These interests pre fer David B. xull, if he can be Induced to stay In politics. r.vv^ ■'•-' — • BROOKLYNITES ON LEGISLATIVE BILLS.

DEFIAXCE TO MURPHY. Westernacher Says Brooklyn Will Xot Support McClellan. Gottfried Westernacher. who was Deputy Bridge Commissioner until he was removed because he would not desert the standard of Senator McCarren and who controls a large German vote In Brooklyn. in an interview on the coming municipal campaign and the proposed renominatlon of McClellan by Murphy, said last night that he was firmly con vinced that the voters of Brooklyn would "not stand for an unprincipled boss and his willing tool in the City Hall." Pour years ago Mr. Weaternacher was a prominent figure in the Citizen 3 Union movement, but in the last campaign was one of the most active lieutenants of Senator McCarren. After referring to Mayor McClelian's promise that the autonomy of Brooklyn would be observed. Mr. Westernacher said: We have since found out that these assurances were not sincere. Ad soon as the czar of New- York In 14th-st. became convinced that the Demo crats of Brooklyn did not propose to turn traitor to their borough and be his slaves and mere figure heads In politics, he put the screws on. and every man of honor and principle had to go. The few unprincipled menials who msfekly submitted to the wishes of the czar were accordingly rewarded with office and taken into the inner council of the cor ruptionlsts. The midget in the Mayor's chair still cherishes the hope that he will be renominated and that the people, can be duped once more into electing him. The independent and courageous citizens of this borough will stand shoulder to shoulder and the votes will tell on the other side of the river. They will determine the result, and it will not be in favor of Murphy and McClellan. The- Brooklyn Democratic organization, of which I am proud to be a member under existing conditions, will, I trust, remember the out^^ge on it and force Mur phy to consent to a Mayoralty candidate who will make only such promises as he Intends and is able to "keep. I'nder no other circumstances can there be harmony. No terms can be made to bring the Brooklvh organization "into line." Personally 1 would rather go down with the flag of Brooklyn's autonomy flying than to submit to a dishonorable compromise. I therefore place the possibility of Mayor McClelian's re-election in the same class with mv own chance of becoming President of I'nited States. BANKER DIES IN CAIRO, EGYPT.
