For the 24 hours ending Yesterday
It is necessary to notice an opinion which is being voiced in certain prominent quarters that the fall of the great Russian fortress affords Japan an opportunity to offer terms of peace that would put an end to the struggle. The Mikado is accused of losing a great opportunity, and it is even suggested that Great Britain should urge her ally to "moderation." However humane, this is a wholly narrow and mistaken view of the great issues at stake. Japan has taken up arms to preserve vital national interests involved in the absolute integrity of the three

northern provinces of China, which we know as Manchuria, and contingently of Korea as well; while, on the other hand, Russia would regard as a "shameful peace" any sacrifice of those vast pretensions which have already materialised in that great artery of aggression, the Chinese Eastern Railway, and the garrisons planted by her in all the principal towns and commercial centres of Manchuria.
When, therefore, people talk of Japan moderating her aims, it is tantamount to saying that Russia, by walking into her neighbour's vineyard, has thereby actually acquired certain vested rights, and that Japan should "now be satisfied with something less than those objects for which she has incurred a vast expenditure of blood and treasure, objects in which the whole of Anglo-Saxondom is as closely concorned as Japan herself. Whatever wisdom there may have seemed in compromise this time last year, its possibility and its necessity from Japan's point of view, after eleven months of constant victory over the Russian armies and the capture of the enemy's chief stronghold, have passed away. Japan was never so powerful, both by land and sea, never more justified in looking for the final success of her efforts, than she is at the present moment.
But the Government of the Mikado, while exhibiting a spirit of the highest generosity towards its beaten foes, is displaying a good deal of business-like resolution as well, and it is morally certain that the release of their forces from the Kwangtung peninsula will initiate a new era of activity on the Shaho. Kuropatkin has evidenced his weakness and lack of confidence in failing to attack his enemy while Stoessel was continuing his diversion at Port Arthur. His chances are now infinitely reduced by the unchaining of General Nogi, so that unless once more urged on by the desperate gamblers of St. Petersburg, he is not likely to make the first move.
A telegram we publish to-day from Mukden shows that Oyama does not intend to delay any longer and has begun bombarding the Russian positions. The weather is propitious and the next two months must be taken advantage of, for in April the great spring melting begins, when the whole country breaks up into bog, closely followed, after a short period of baking, by the heavy rains of July. The most interesting consideration, therefore, in any event, whether Kuropatkin is forced to a fresh southward effort or Oyama opens the ball, is the probable direction of the Japanese blow. The fronts of the two armies are so heavily protected that we must look to the flanks for the solution of the present situation.The great danger for the Russian army is a Japanese success upon its right flank, which would endanger its means of escape. It is to the west of this that a considerable force under General Prince Fushima has long been posted in readiness to break in upon the Russian line of communications and retreat, and if is more than probable that the heavy reinforcement of this body into an effective striking force will form a salient feature of Oyama's next movement, Kuropatkin cannot remain where he is much longer. His enemy's strength in every respect is growing much faster than his, and he must either stake all on a desperate effort to a victory, or make good his retreat to Harbin or Tieling. This would undoubtedly be his wisest course, but it would seem as though the same unwillingness to make such an acknowledgment of impotence were operating alike to prevent the recall of Rojdestvensky, and the escape of Kuropatkin from the increasing perils of bis position.
"The scenes following the surrender were disgraceful. Men loudly protested that the position was being thrown away. It is evident from the stores that the surrender was unnecessary, and that the fortress could have held out for months longer, 25,000 troops being able and willing to fight. General Stoessel is now much blamed for the disgraceful conclusion of a splendid defence, which practically ended with the death of General Kondracaenko. (Reuter.)

The second performance, on Friday night, ol Lucia di Lammermoor at the Verdi Theatre deserves some mention. Signora Svicher and Signor Tomisaniboth were to sing, and therefore the house was full, and the public's confidence was indeed amply repaid. Siguora Svicher has never been in better voice, to our thinking : not only did she perform the usual astonishing feats of vocal dexterity, but all the more 'ordinary' (shall we call it ?) part of her idle was given with exceptional delicacy and exactness of note. She also gave between the 2nd and 3rd acts a truly delightful rendering the aria from Rigoletto, and the close was marked by an exceptional high note. She well deserved the gorgeous collection of bouquets and presents, to bring in which the services of at least half the staff were needed. Signor Tomisani was perhaps rather unfortunate in that his great song is in the last act, wherein the soprano does not appear. He sang with all that rare and exquisite tone which is so marked a feature in his voice. Signor Baldini was also very good. We shall have every reason to regret the departure of this company, and we hope that the improved attendance during the letter part of their stay may induce them to pay Cairo another visit next year.

Suez, Monday.
A few days ago, while the Dutch petroleum tank steamer. "Sultan Van Koetei" was coming out of the Canal, a native dhow laden with flour in bags and petroleum in cases, having about 30 passengers bound for Tor, was in the steamer's course between the buoys. The vessel, not being able to alter her . cqurse in the Canal, blew her whistle several times, so ithat the dhow might clear the way. Instead of this, however, she attempted to cross, thinking there would be ample time to do so. Unfortunately the S.S. "Sultan Van Koetei" did not take long to run into the dhow, making a large hole amidships, and in a few minutes the craft went to the bottom.
The passengers and crew, however, managed to keep afloat till assistance reached them, with the exception of one Bedouin passenger who was drowned. His body was recovered yesterday.
The wreck was refloated by the Canal Company's divers.

The prospectuses of the Egyptian Investment and Agency, Limited, have gone astray in the post, and consequently the issue has had to be postponed until their arrival.
The home press has given considerable publicity to the action of the International Chamber of Shipping in approaching Lore Cromer on the subject of the great congestion prevailing at the port of Alexandria. The Li verpool "Post and .Mercury," the Liverpoo "Journal of Commerce," "The Scotsman," allquote Lord Cromer's reply to the Chamber Liverpool, which holds the bulk of the "near' foreign trade, is particularly interesting itself\with regard to the congestion at this port.
We are glad to see that Socrates Spire Bey's interesting work on Italian words ii modem Arabio is receiving recognition. The following extract is from the famous New Yorl literary weekly "The Nation," of December 15, 1904 : Socrates Spiro Bey, who has already done good work in his unique dictionary of modern Egyptian Arabic, has just published a "Note" on the Italian words in the same dialect (Cairo ; "Al Mokattem" Printing Office).Dedicated to the lamented Prof. Willard Fiske, it shows the system of translitéra/ tion derived from Spitta and approved by him, and, although a simple vocabulary. Arabio text, transliteration, meaning, Italian original is a most creditable breaking of ground in a new field ,

The company west half-past three. The vessel was flying the Swedish and Norwegian flag, owing to the fact that, H. R. H. Prince Qustavus Adojphus, Duke of Scania, who is the son of the cROWN Prince of Sweden and Norway, was on boarthe vessel approached, his Royal Highness was seen on the upper deck of the magnificent vessel, dressed in a grey overcoat, and eagerly scanning the persons on shore.
On the quay awaiting the Prince's arrival, were Hafez Bey Mohamed, Sub-Governor of Alexandria, representing the Khedive, Mr. C. Belinfante-Ostberg, Diplomatic Agent and •Consul-General for Sweden and Norway, Mr. Oswald Barker, representing his father, the Swedish and Norwegian -Consul at Alexandria, Beneducci Bey, secretary to the Gouvernorat, and the only two - Swedish-Norwegian subjects resident at- Alexandria Mr. and MRs. Silfverbjeln. On the ship coming alongside the quay, the party went on «board to welcome the Prince, being presented by Mr. Belinfantp--Ostberg. His Royal .Highness shook -hands cordially with * all and was. graciously .pleasedto accept a bouquet of violets from Mrs. Silfverbjeln.
Shortly afterwards Prince i Gustavus Adolfos, accompanied.by his suite, Baron de Ralamb and Col. Suerre, landed and was saluted bya guard of honour composed of Customs Guards, under Bimbashi Paling. His Royal Highness drove off in Mr. Henry Barker's carriage, accompanied by Mr. Belinfante-Ostberg and his suite, and went to Mr. Barker's residence, where he partook of tea. H.R.H. afterwards travelled to Cairo in the Khedive's saloqn carriage, leaving Moharrem -Bey station at 4.25 p.m. On arrival at Cairo the Royal visitor proceeded to Shepheard's Hotel, where he will reside for some time.
The other passengers of the "Hohenzollem" left by a special train chartered, by the agent of the company at 5.80 p.m.In regard to the grounding of the "Hohep-zollero," our enquiries tend to show that the fortunately, small mishap was due to the pilot of the vessel having given the wrong signal and therefore no blame can be attached to Captain Plosch.

A correspondent writes :—In view of th< scandals of the Belgian administration of the congo Free State, and of the way the Belgians exercise an absolute monopoly over the track .of that vast country, would it not be justifiable to resort to retaliatory measures in Egypt in view of the unfair treatment that is meted out to British traders in the. Free. (?).State ?
Nothing could more effectively bring the[Belgian Government to reason and compel.it to. reverse its methods, than a stern but salutary lesson administered in & country like this, where Belgian interests axe not inconsiderable and show every sign of benefiting by the general improvements brought about by British rule. The Germans have, a saying, "Wie du mir, so ich dir." Many Belgians, I believe, understand German* What would they say to the application of that proverb to them their British victims. But there is little hope that the British Government will abandon its present policy of timid forbearance.

TRIBUNAL MIXTE D'ALEXANDRIE
Affaire De Bono contre Eyoaud
Mer expose que M. De Bono,'Conser vateur des hypothèques du Tribunal d'Alex andrie, possèoe 300 feddans de terrains qu'il a achetés de Boghos Achikian, lequel les tenait par concession en règle, du Gouvernement. Un beau jour un bedouin .de la localité, nomme Abdel Hamid, qui n'avait pour toute fortune qu'une tente, se met à vendre à M. Eynaud un lot de 1,300 feddans, parmi lesquels se trouvait la parcelle de M. De Bono. Il faut savoir qu'Abdel Hamid était le gardien et le locataire par amodiation des terres de M. De Bono. Le 17 avril 1902, celui-ci lance une citation à M. Eynaud qui s'étail installé furtivement sur ses terrains et y avait détruit des bornes en fer et creusé des masrafs. Une enquête avec expertise fut ordonnée s sitôt pat le Tribunal.Me Cuzzer fait ressortir à . la barre que la preuve faite au moyen de bédouins appartenant à la tribu duvendeur ne peut être prise on considération, s'agissant en la circonstance de témoins complaisants. Il critique ensuite le rapport de l'expert qui, en dressant son plan, a pris un faux point de départ. Un autre expert, dans une affaire identique, Karam contre Eynaud, s'était basé sur l'application des titres originaires, tandis que dans le procès actuel, l'expert n'a tenu aucun compte du hodjet délivré a M. De Bono. Me Cuzzer s'étend ensuite.sur la question de la propriété, il soutient qu'un bédouin nomade ne peut pas prescrire au Mariout, que de plus pour que la propriété soit effective il faut quelle s'exerce d'une façon évidente et publique. et que le propriétaire paie l'impôt.
Me de La Pommeraye,pour M.Eynaud,soutient que M. De Bono ne connaît pas la situation de s es 300 feddans, que ceux-ci sont placés au Sud sur la colline dénommée "Kom el-Kattaline" et que c'est pour s'assurer un lot de terrains irrigable et cultivable que le demandeur a empiété sur les terrains de son client. Il dit que le plan cadastral officiel et celui de partage entre les acheteurs de M. Achikian ne peuvent être pris en considération, parce que l'expert a trouvé qu'ils étaient faux, ainsi que tous les autres plans officiels qui ne concordent d'ailleurs point entre eux. L'erreur qui existe sur ces plans concerne la situation des tombeaux de Sidi Massoud et Om Abou Hadiga. L'expert a donc dû, pour dresser son plan et donner ses conclusions, se fier aux dépositions des bédouins de là-bas, Non seulement la pièce est charmante, mais encore tous les acteurs sans exception y ont fait
THEATRE ZIZINIA
FRANCILLON
Francillon est une délicieuse petite comédie, la meilleure pénétré des productions d'Alex-dre Dumas fils. L'action en est rapide, le style alerte et spirituel ; l'effet, qui n'y est pas recherché, n'en est que plus sûr.Francillon, la femme de Lucien de Riverolles, aime uniquement. son mari, mais, justement jalouse, elle l'avertit que s'il la trompe elle le trompera aussi. Lucien, c'est le mari insignifiant qui aime sa. femme, mais qui n'en continue pas moins à fréquenter son ancienne maîtresse. Ihn soir qu'il va la rejoindre au bal de l'opéra, il est suivi par sa femme qui, pour se venger, se fait conduire par un inconnu à la Maison d'Or. Le lendemain elle raconte tout à son mari et lui fait croire qu'elle est allée Jusqu'au bout. La-dessus fureur de Lucien qui d'ailleurs ne sait à quoi se résoudre et demande conseil à tout le monde. Survient le clerc du notaire, appelé pour établir l'état respectif de leurs fortunes. Francillon reconnaît en lui son cavalier de l'autre nuit. Le mari soumet celui-ci à un interrogatoire qui, en somme, ne peut rien éclaircir. C'est l'amie de Francillon, restée seule avec elle, qui finit par découvrir la vérité. L'amie luiditque l'inconnu s'est vanté de l'avoir possédée. Francillon jette alors un cri éperdu "Il en a menti !" qui proclame son innocence.
Serveille. M. Paul Plan a été insignifiant à souhait dans son rôle de Lucien de Riverolles. Sa voix souple et agréable, la perfection de sa diction, son aspect imposant en font un acteur de premier ordre. Il a merveilleusement su s'adapter à son rôle de mari nul dans toutes les situations. Mlle Renée Parny a été fort admirée dans le rôle de Francillon. Ses éclats de passion jalouse ont été rendus avec une vérité saisissante ; son cri de la fin surtout "Il en a menti !" a eu un vrai succès. Les autres acteurs et actrices ont également bien joué leurs personnages : M. Rd. Fournier, grave et chevaleresque dans le rôle du marquis de Riverolles; M. A. Dubosc,. plein d'entrain dans celui de Stanislas de Grandredor; M. Lagrange, sérieux et amical dans celui de Henry de Simeux ; M. J. Laurent, le clerc de notaire un peu fat ; M. thomann, le vrai type du dégénéré dans Jean de Carillac ; Mme Pauline Patry, amie sincère et dévouée; Mlle Georgette Loyer la jeune fille enjouée; M. Despair, d'une niaiserie affectée dans un rôle de domestique.
On peut dire comme conclusion et d'uie façon générale que la représentation a été du goût de tout le monde; chacun s'est retiré avec l'impression d'avoir assisté à une bonne pièce, jouée par de bons artistes.
La petite boutade, bout du fil} qui a précédé la comédie, a été jouée avec tout le brio nécessaire. M. Thomann a été un Paul idéal, Mlle Darmony a été délicieuse dans le tôle de la dame et M. Despair d'une rosserie achevée dans celui de l'ouvrier, Ce soir, môme programme

Information has been received from the manager of the mine stating that the small three-stamp sampling mill has run for the mouth of December on ore taken from winzes No. 3 and 4 north in the 108ft. level; 23 tons of ore were crushed, yielding 63oz. of gold. Nos. 3 and 4 winzes are distant respectively 200ft. and 30 ft. from No. 1 winze, from which the exceedingly rich stone has hitherto been obtained, and further that the mill mentioned must not be contused with the heavy stamp mill, which is expected to commence crushing during this month.

(from our Own Correspondent).
Medinet-el-Fayoum, January 15.
The Moudir and Major Elgood attended Wednesday's meeting of the villagers, who met to elect two of their number to form, with the old member, the three from whom two members of the Legislative Council are selected. It is probable that Abdulal Defino will again he elected to represent Fayoum.
The Ministry of the Interior has granted grades and decorations to the Omdehs who distinguished themselves in fighting the locust plague last Summer. The number of beys in this province increases apace.
I do not agree with Mr. Lang Anderson when he asserts that the fellah keeps money in his house, and that in this way the fellaheen are enabled to purchase land, etc., owing to the large capital they possess. That is not the case here at any rate. Having lived in this part of the country for 16 years, I can speak as to the habits of the average fellah. If he has any money after paying his taxes and necessary expenses, he either gets a new wife, or goes to Mecca. In this way his spare money goes and he never thinks of banking it. When he does boy more land, as was the case with the fellaheen who bought the diara Sanieh land, he pays for it in 10, 15, or 20 years; whereas had he the money, he would pay the purchase money at once.
Mr. Thos. Atwood writes: —The latest war news seems to indicate that we are about to see some entirely new developments, in which the Russian cavalry will play a leading part. This will be a welcome change from the sickening details of carnage which have formed the staple of our information the past few months. While the gigantic armies of Kuropatkin and Oyama are still face to face and both inactive, the Russians seem to be at last bringing the Cossack cavalry into action, and we are told that an enormous force under General Mist-chenko is displaying great activity, many detachments raiding in the rear of the Japanese army.
Little has as yet been heard of the famous Cossacks in this-war, and now that they are appearing on the scene, it is interesting to refer to the graphic description of these renowned horsemen, given in the letters from Mr. A. G. Hales that appeared in a London contemporary a few months ago. Reading . these one is reminded of tales, of the.prowess of the North American Indian and of "Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show," which no doubt has been visited in past years by many of us now in Egypt. Having remarked on the way the Cossack studies his horse, Mr. Hales goes on to say, "I don't think they have any societies for the prevention of cruelty to horses, (but they look aft6r them because they love them, like the good sportsmen they are, and because they blow the tremendous part the horse is going to play in-the fighting that. is j coming when the snows are on the ground."
After describing the feats accomplished by the Cossack in mounting and guiding his horse (cowboy like), Mr. Hales gives the details of what he justly terms "a pretty sight." He says—"One of the prettiest sights I ever saw was a regiment of Cossacks in full charge. They came along like a thunderbolt, their swords all out, the men crouching far over their horses' necks, their knees at an angle that a modern American jockey adopts. All at .once the officer, who was galloping well ahead of his men,—where, by the by, the Russian officer always rides in battle,—stood bolt upright, his sabre swept upwards from ; the hip, flashed over his head and came down like a streak of fire in an imaginary cut at the head of an infantryman. He did not utter a word, but the whole regiment rose in their stirrups like„ one man and copied his action. The next moment the swords were home in the scabbards, every horse was down, the men were lying across the bodies, carbines were out, volley after volley rang out. Im-! mediately afterwards the horses were upontheir hoofs like magic, the men bounded into the saddles, the whole regiment wheeled like seagulls on the wing, and rode off to take cover five hundred yards away in the rear, behind a rapidly advancing column of infantry who came upon the scene with bayonets fixed.
These men were going into action in the course of a few months against the Japanese."
It will be interesting to note if in the days to come, these wonderful riders achieve any great successes, and merit the encomiums passed on them by Mr. Hales, more especially as many of the events anticipated by him have come to pass in a way that shows his remarkable acumen and foresight
If this wretched war is to go on— and there is as yet no sign that the Japanese realise how completely they have failed to achieve the objects with which they set out ou their ambitious venture— one can only hope that finesse and strategy may take the place of such butchery as has hitherto shocked—although it has not roused to action — all civilised nations. Kuropatkin has now made a move in this direction and if it only succeeds in effecting a crippling of the Japanese communications, perhaps an important step may have been taken towards bringing about the peace we all hope to see come, long before either side is exhausted by the struggle.
The serious increase in the number of cases of hydrophobia which has taken place of late in Egypt has led to the publication of a timely pamphlet on madness among the canine race by Dr. L. D. Teboulle, of the Veterinary Service at Alexandria. The purpose of this work, "La Rage chez le Chien," is to set forth in a convenient form, for the benefit of the publie, a number of important facts about this terrible malady, for,as Dr. Teboulle observes:—
Combien d'accidents seraient évités si, chaque propriétaire de chien avait une connais-sance sommaire de la maladie ! Bon nombre de cas de rage resteraient sans autre conséquence fâcheuse que la perte de Tanimal enragé, si son maître savait seulement :
1.Que le chien enragé peut boire et manger jusqu'au dernier moment ;
2.Que tout chien qui modifie ses habitudes sans causse apparente est suspect de rage.The pamphlet is well worth obtaining by all dog fanciers. As a proof of the efficacy of an intelligent system of fighting the disease, the writer mentions that when the muzzling order was put in force in 1895 no less than 675 cases of madness among London dogs had been brought to the notice of the authorities. As soon as muzzling was enforced, the number of cases of canine madness decreased as follows : 1896 to 458, 1897 to 151, 1898 to 17, 1899 to 9, 1900 to 6, 1901 to 1. It would be a work of supererogation to expect that such results will ever be obtained in Egypt, where rules and regulations are so seldom intelligently or consistently enforced.

MR. McGILLIVRAY.
To the Editor of the Egyptian Gazette.
Sir,— Yesterday, by the 11 a.m. train, Mr. McGiUivray, of the National Bank, left for Suez.on what the writer of the scurrilous paragraphs, which from time to time appear in a Cairo newspaper, imagines to be "a big-game shooting expedition." That he is after "big game" I have no doubt, but that is his and the National Bank's business. This morning bright and early, as soon as Mr.McGill-ivray was well out of the way, like on previous occasions, this journal comes out with another of its attacks upon him and the National Bank. I have not taken up my pen to defend either the Bank or my friend Mr. McGiUivray from this fresh attack by one who is afraid to write when "Mac" is anywhere in the immediate neighbourhood, as that is quite unnecessary, but only to refute the insinuation that Mr. McGiUivray has severed his connection with the National Bank, and that, on apoount of the puerile efforts of the writer of file paragraphs in question. Mr. McGiUivray has not severed his connection with the National Bank; on the contrary he has been sent by the Bank on a mission requiring confidence and ability : for that reason the Bank has selected the mam who a few years ago was " in a comparatively obscure position " and who by sheer hard work and ability, without influence, has worked his way to the position of being one of the leading men in the leading financial institution of Egypt.
I am, Sir,
Yours faithfully,
"A Friend of Mac's."
To the Editor or the Egyptian Gazette.
Sir,—Your allusions on Friday last to the doings of certain high officials of the Coast Guard Administration were not quite justified under prevailing circumstances. The pur chase of camels is an important matter requiring a great deal of experience. I admit that a native officer might buy them much cheaper ; but there are other points to be considered which he is apt to neglect. On a previous occasion this duty was delegated to an English subordinate and I recollect that he branded all his purchases with the same number, thus making it impossible to distinguish one beast from another in the reports. Hence it is obviously necessary that very superior officials should be present to organise the details of the purchase.
What objections can you have to the Director-General going for a cruise 1 He is surely as useful out at sea as in Cairo, where there is precious little real coastguard work to be done. Certainly there is, not much to be found in the Red Sea, but he might drop across smugglers there and seize their cargo. What is the good of having cruisers if you can; use them when you want to? And the largest of them was beautifully fitted up specially for the Director-General. It would be a pity to employ that one on mere coast patrol work. If we do use our ships for pleasure trips we are only following the example of the P. W. D., whose steamers are lent to almost anybody but the officials who really require them.
Yours faithfully,
Coastguard.
To the Editor of the Egyptian Gazette,
Sir,— The petition of the telegraph clerks in the "Gazette" of Friday last exposes a state of things which is a positive disgrace to the officials who "manage" the department. A similar condition of affairs would, if make no doubt, be found to exist at thé Post Office. Hence delay, irregularity, and pilfering. When the police ask for shorter hours or an increase of pay there is a ready reply : "You are not a revenue; earning department" But that answer cannot serve in the case of the Telegraph or Post Office Departments.
All that is here attended to is reclame ; and the employés of the Government may go hang for what the officials care about them or their families.
I am, Sir,
