T. PETERSnUKtJ. July -Co:-g at
an interval of forty-five years after the re
doutabl trip of the monitor Miantommoh
to Cronstadt, to return the filni:y call
of the Russian warships in Xew Tcrk in
the critical times of Admiral Sad-
ger' squadron aroused old memories of
nearly a centurr of Husso-Amerlcan hls
tory. which had become a tradition In Rut
sis, rudely ahaken by event aince 1X1.
Admiral Badger reference to the Jliun
lonomoa at a banquet tendered by tlie Im
perial River Yacht club was the Itenutd
of the evening-, aa It flattered the prido
Ruaslans take In having furthered lli
fortune of the American republ.0, to
which they formerly habitually referred
aa "Our Trans-Atlantic friends."
Tho lack of adequate advertisement of
the fleet's coming did not interfere with
Its developing into a fair success. Befcru
tho week of the squadron's stay iru over
tha emperor and bis navy, with the peo
ple of Petersburg, had succeeded in mak
ing tho guests feel thoroughly at bom.
Htwisar" CesBsseat.
Tho emphasis laid upon t::t fact that
tho squadron's visit was only a serric
cruise may account for the scanty crop
of Impressions In the newspapers. Meet
metropolitan dallies published articles of
welcome, confining themselves to gen
ralltle. and to reporting the -. arloiia
fetes offered to the visiting admiral, his
officers and men. Some, like the Kussktya
Vyedomostl of Moscow, which is th dean
of the Russian liberal press, did not print
a Uno of editorial comment upon the
visit. Others took the view that Its main
object was a hid for. Russian support
against Japan, but opinions divided as to
what Russia's reply to this bid should be.
The Petersburg Gazette declared that
the International situation furnished a
firm ground for a Russo-Amerlcin ap
proach men t. 'The east brings Russia and
the t'nlted States together, Just as Ger
many brought Russia and France, and
lately England, together." stated the
Qasette. "Russian and American Inter
est cannot be secured better than by a
unity In their Asiatic policies." The gen
eral feeling that Russia should make good
term Is voiced la an interview with Ad
miral Skrydloff. who warns Russia
against "selling cheap."
The aam Idea Is urged by the
Zerashtdilna of Petersburg, a reaction
ary organ, which declined to bellev that
the visit was destitute of a political pur
pose, and says: "This visit Is a reflection
of a popular tendency In America in favor
of aeeking, In the shspe of an interna
tional political combination, a counter
poise against the Japanese danger, with
which America cannot think of coping un
assisted. But the sweet smile and
amlableneas of the Yankee ought not to
turn tha beads of ur diplomacy, and
Russian sspport ought to be accorded
only lit exchange for real advantage to
Russia, and .'not for the mere sak of
fraternisation between two nation which
stand at the opposite pole of belief, na
tional spirit and tradition."
I Caclo Sasa FUrtiasjt
Finally., a third view I that America
ta acting In bad faith, "flirting" with Rus
sia, for the sak of exciting tho Jealousy
of Japan, and of driving a better bargain
with her. This view was defended at
length in an article in the Petorburgskl
Vyedomosti, Princ Ukhtomski' newspa
per. Th writer further develops th Idea
that Russian and Americans are widely
divergent national and racial types, which
hav scarcely a trait In common,- but th
color of skin.
A similar variety of opinion was raanl-
the actual situation In th far east, as
affecting Rusao-American relations. Th
Novo Yremva. Russia's leading organ.
sharply attacked American activity la
Manchuria, during th squadron's stay,
undeterred by a poeslbl charge of dis
courtesy. It proceeded to explain that
tha situation had nothing to gain by
vagueness on Important outstanding ques
tion. In attacking and opposing th
American Invasion of Manchuria, Russia
was combatting th same trust and com
bination of capital which th American
people had long been trying to control.
On th onther hand, the Retch, edited
by Prof. Mllyukoff. took th oppooit view
of th matter, and argued that American
proposals with regard to Manchuria are
not directed against Russia, and that Rus
sian diplomacy had missed a notable op
portunity In not acquiescing in an Amer
ica Initiative In Manchuria which would
fight Russia' battle for her.

Bund Is the latent event In the Internal

orcaniiatlon. formed aNut two years ago
for augmenting the Influence ot the com
mercial clesses over legislation and for
combatting the Agrarian movement.
It now consists of about ITAf Individual
members, besides some 750 commercial and
Industrial organizations of various kinds
Thus the total membership of the Bund,
direct and Indirect. 1 considerable above
th.xv and It is therefore by far the
largest private organization of any sort In
Germany. In June the Kund held Its an
nual convention at Berlin; and. In view
of the near approach of Reichstag elec
tions, the speeches took on a very aggres
sive character against the Agrarians and
the parties supporting them. The president
of the organisation announced a policy
which means, practically, that th B'inJ
prefer to see a socialist elected rather
'than an Agrarian.
MHtfwtimi Wlthdsmw.
Hi attitude ha given great offense to
th Central Association of German Manu
facturers, tho national organisation ot th
largest manufacturers of th empire. This
body ha Just announced It withdrawal
from th Bund because of th vigorous
attitude adopted against the Agrarians at
the convention. The association explain
its action by alleging that the course
adopted by th Bund endanger the pro
tective policy, which I supported by a
tacit alliance between the manufacturers
and large land owners. The secession of
the association does not mean that all the
manufacturer of the country will desert
the Bund; and on the other hand, many
of the organizations of the smaller and
medium-sized manufacturing establish
ments have declared their support of a
vigorous attack upon the Agrarian and the
conservative parties.
In some quarters it is believed that th
defection of the association will help the
Bund, since it will enable It to put forth
mor energy In Its struggle with th
Agrarians. It Is also believed that It will
tend to draw the lines more clearly be
tween the supporters of th present tariff
policy of the empire and those who prefer
a more moderate form of protection.

they are apt to look upon him as something

by ths action of the sea that Prussia has
had to assert Its right of eminent do

Island from being gradually washed Into
th sea.
Large sums have been spent by ths state
In planting trees along ths coast and In
getting th dunes sodded with panto grass.
Those parts of the coast most seriously
threatened have been protected by strong
stone walls. Until recently It frequently
happened that after a storm the coast line
would be found to have retreated In places
as much a 1.10 feet. This work of the
state does not affect the private ownership
of the dune and beaches.
Though planted by the state, the trees
become ths property of the private land
owners and may later be cut down with
the consent of the State Forestry depart
ment; but In this case other tree must
be set out by the land owner.
