JAPS WILL WAIT UNTIL OCTOBER ^A* Pekin. July 26. Reports continue here that Russia increases her troops in Manchuria and that Russian sol diers are passing New Chwang en route to Port Arthur. AdmLal Alex ieff, the Russian commander, is said to be strengthening the garrisons at Dalny and other places on the Liao tung peninsula, with the object, it is believed, of having hLs troops so dis posed that they may be speedily mo bilized in the event of the destruction of the Manchurian railroad along the northern border of the Lk-otung penin sula by the Japanese, a hostile opera tion which, It is admitted the Japanese are competent Lo perform at any time. Russians Making Ready. St. Petersburg, July 26. The far Eastern situation is occupying the officials herer~espedally the eventuali ties that may result from the warlike tone of the Japanese press. It is emphatically said that Russia has not the least desire for war. and in no event will she attack. Her financial position necessitates econ omy, while the pre1* ailing internal dis- content compels the utmost attention to those domestic reforms which the government regards as the best cor rective for the threatened revolution ary movement. It is )#)t denied, how ever, that Russia is preparing for the most serious possibilities. It was ap prehension of Just Such a Crisis as is now foreshadowed that caused Gen. Kouropatkin. minister of war, to be sent to Manchuria, and it is the outcome of his investigations that steps are being taken to meet the worst contingencies. These steps are declared to be purely precautionary and not aggressive. It is hoped that when Japan sees that Rubrfia is fully prepared she will be convinced of the danger she will incur from pursuing a hostile course. It is professed that Russia has not the least fear of the outcome of a war with Japan, who, though she might have some successes at the outset, could not possibly be vic torious in the end. CARDINALS WILL ENTER THEIR CELLS THE EVENING BEFORE. CARDINAL GOTTi MAKES GAINS CHANCES IMPROVED IN COM- PARISON WITH OTHER CARDINALS. AGAIN VIEWED BY THOUSANDS OVER THIRTY THOUSAND PEOPLE PASS BEFORE LEO'S CATAFALQUE. Rome. July 26.Again the body of Leo XIII. lay in state in the basilica of St. Peter's and over 30,000 people passed before the catafalque during the day. This- is probably a slight in crease over the number who viewed the remains Thursday, and the aug mentation was doubtless due to the widely circulated reports that yester day would be the last upon which the public would have an opportunity of looking upon the body of the beloved pontiff. These reports proved to be baseless and the body will continue in the chapel of the sarranmut, at least during the greater part of to-day. The fears expressed by the Vatican author ities concerning decomposition appear to have been exaggerated. With impressive ceremonies the, body will be interred this evening in a sarcophagus at St. Peter's, where it will remain until taken to its final resting place in the Church of St. John Latoran. Italian soldiers again yes terday preserved order inside St. Peter's, where there was a repetition of the scene and crowd which oc curred Thursday. Masses for Repose of Soul. The day was notabl" fo.1 the solemn masses celebrated for the repose of the soul of the late pontiff at St. Peters and other famous smirches hi Rome, which were largely attended despite the pathetic ceremony which was occurring at the basilica.. Interest is now largely engrossed with the coming conclave and its re sult The gossip of the day may be summed up briefly by saying that Cardinal Gotti's chances of election seem to have improved in comparison with those of other cardinals who have been mentioned as likely to suc ceed the dead pontiff, although there still exists a strong feeling that some one. hitherto scarcely talked of, may wear the tiara. At the congregation of cardinals yes terday Cardinal Satolli asked when the conclave would be opened. Cardi nal Oreglia replied that he thought that on the evening of Friday, the 31st Inst., all the cardinals Might Enter Their Cells and be ready for the first meeting of the conclave Aug. 1 Mgr. Farabulini, the famous Latinist whom Gladstone often consulted and of whom the Ger man emperor requested advice con cerning Latin, has been selected to write the oratio brevis, the Latin eulogy upon the late pontiff, which will be buried with him. Inside the Vatican the work o\ ar ranging the apartments for the con clave has been begun. The court yards are choked with carts, bricks and building material for raising the -walls where doors exist, making partitions, etc. The Palatine guards and gendarmes will be transferred else where as their barracks are needed by the concleve. Yesterday afternoon Cardinal Oreglia. escorted by the Swiss guards, inspected the work, ob serving everything minutely/ Cardinal Oreglia is increasing in favor daily, even in the government circles, where it is remembered that it was through his efforts that the propaganda of the Vatican adhered to the request of the Italian government to establish an apostolic prefecture in Erithrea.
