It Is Thought That Russia Has Ta ken Advantage of Circumstances to Push Her Eastern Policy. By Cable to the Telegram. London, Nov. 2 Suspicion has arisen that the extraordinary prepa rations which have been made for war during the last few days under cover of the Egyptian crisis, are in fact in tended to put Britain in proper condi tion for meeting Russia. Certain it is that no such preparations for armed conflict have been indulged in by Great Britain since the Crimean war. Furthermore, these preparations are not called forth by the Fashoda af fair, for France has practieally ac ceded to all the demands of England on that score.

The Globe, com menting upon the telegrams received from Wei-Hai-Wei, announcing the readiness of the British warships for action, and the assemblage of a large Russian fleet at Port Arthur, says: "Matters are of the gravest impor tance, especially when taken in con junction with the extraordinary prep arations for war, which have been in progress on both sides of the English Channel during the last ten days. In the absense of more definite informa tion it must be surmised that Russia is taking advan'age of the present ten sion between England and France, and has pushed her far eastern policy to unbearable lengths by forcibly taking possession of the valuable treaty port of New Chwang."

Washington, D. C, Nov. 2. Senator Mitchell, of Wisconsin, is in Washington, enroute home where he goes to vote in the State election next week.

Rosevelt will be de feated for the Governorship by Van Wyck, and that the New York legisla ture will be democratic, which will in sure the election of a democratic Sen ator to succeed Senator Murphy. Senator Mitchell does not believe that the republicans will have a major ity in the Senate after the fourth of next March, and heJbases this opinion upon the possibility of the democrats retaining the seats now held in the Senate from New York, New Jersey, West Virginia and California. The Senator admits that Wisconsin is like ly to elect a republican to succeed him self, but he says that gaining one seat in Wisconsin will not gire the Senate to the Republicans.
