(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS)

With Secretary of State Knox a* the
only wltnea*, President Taft at 10:17

man and Speaker Clark last night.

LITTLE INTEREST IN RUSSIA.
Papers as a Role Ignore the Entire
Subject of tlie Treaty.
:<BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS)
ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 21. —Rus-
sian newspapers are giving small at-
OPEN EVENINGS
tentinn to the Runao-Americgn rela
tion*. About the only article pub
lished on thia aubject la an interview
with M. Tlmlrlaieff, former minister
of commerce In the Witte cabinet.
Who han taken a leading part In de
veloping Atiglo-R uaslan Commercial
realtlona. He declarca that th* traaty
of 1132 la old-fashioned and primi
tive, the principle of the moot fa
vored nation being obscurely formu
lated therein. Commercial treaties,
however, he adds, pursue solely econ
omic object*, never political object*.
If the Jewish question served aa the
reason for the abrogation of the
treaty, the United Stale* will marccly
gain Ita point in a new treaty.
Cannot Change Fnllcj.
"We cannot change our Interna
tional legislation." say* M. Tlmiri*-
seff. "to please the United States."
in the former minister's opinion,
the matter will not come to a tariff
wuP.
"Under the circumstance*," con
tlnucs M. Thnlrfaxeff. "the American
government's step I* not clear ano
scarcely piudent. Had economic rela
tions may help to disturb good politi*
cal relations. The traditional frlena
shlp between Russia and the United
State* is now at stake needlessly. Rus
sia is dependent upon the United
States only for raw cotton. She Im
ports half her supply from that coun
try and grows the other half In Tur
kestan. The government's attention
should be occupied without delay with
thia queatlon and extensive Irrigation
credits should be voted bv the duma."
Ignore the Subject.
The Moscow newspapers Ignore the
subject completely. A tew dispatches
from London and one or two BMh
letters from occasional correspond
ents In America represent the sum
total printed on the treaty question.
It would appear ns if the situation In
Ihe United States arose too abruptly
and developed too suddenly to permit
the Russian public to get Interested
In it. .
Apart from the lack of Interest and
the unconcern which characterise the
present Russian attitude it must be
said that real apprcclutiqn and ad
miration have been expressed in offi
cial circles for the decisive manner in
which President Taft disposed of the
matter, which might have led to un
desirable complications. It is admit
ted that In addition to maintaining
the best traditions of tactful diplo
macy. President Taft has done a serv
ice for the cause of Russo-Americun
relations.
Notwithstanding the possibility of
the future diplomatic and political
circles appear to regard the Incident
as ended, at least for the present.
