London. Nov. 17. The Daily Telegraph's SL Petersburg correspondent, who tnrouglinut has taken somewhat alarmist views regarding the outcome of the North Sea dispute, in a telegram printed this morning, asserts that the Admiralty has gained an ascendancy which compels foreigners to repudiate its agreement with Great Britain, and tnat Count Benrkendorff. Russian ambassador to Great Britain, will be made Ihe senpegoat and probably will be recalled. Meantime, he adds, the negotiations are at a standstill and the matter will be referred to the Emperor A dispatch to Reuter's Telegraph company, however, confirms tbe Associated Press dispatch to the effect that Russia does not desire in any way lo recede from the basis of the agreement, hut proposes a modification of tbe language submitted in the British text, and the Daily gTelepraph itself, in an editorial, is iuFlined to hope that, reference of the matter to the Emperor gives proiqise of a satisfactory settlement. The paper concludes by saying that it "cannot believe the Czar will treat thus lightly the word of Russia pledged in his name." lis 1 !!- cap-tnre- d 'V General r, re-p- ori. al ma-chii- io FOUR JURRORS ACCEPTED time.
