Smali Body of Russ'lans Repused and Made to Fiee in Confusion. A St. Petersburg cable: There is a significant change mn tone on the part of some of the Rusaian newispapers, libre the 'Iiovoe- Vremya, which neyer heretofore have even admitteil the possibility of the conclusion of hostilities until Rkussa had recovered ber nnlitary prestige by a vicr.ory. To-day the papers discuss calmly the advisabiity of ending the war, if japan's terms are reasonable. The pa3'ment of a big indemnîty, they dedare, would be toô humiliating. The Novoe Vremya says bluntly that if japan acka-too much it wîil pay Russia to prolong the contest indefimitely; while the Russ Iargues that if representatives of the Russian people are called 'together japan will see herseif confronted by the whole nation, and she will readily agiee to reasonable telnus.
