Err. ROGERS MAKES ANSWER.

w z are S5IdO " NC clOlC " iSNNi II NAAS
complimentary admission made by Mr..
Edward G. Rogers, clerk of the Ram
sey district courts, in the communlca-
ton that appears elsewhere, of an
agreement with the G / o e in it's gen
Civilizations on the subject Of making
citizens, by an equally complete agree
ment with him that in all the cases
where the applicant for his second pa
pers has been for ten to thirty years
resident in this country, a voter and
permanent resident of the city, the
scrutiny into his fitness to assume the
dignity of citizenship is needless. We
will concede that it would be some
thing in the nature of self-stultifica-
ton to investigate the capacity for the
duties of citizenship of men whom we
had been allowing to perform all those
duties for so long. We will even agree
that to do so would be an absurdity.
If Mr.. Rogers will re-read the MAX
ing of citizens" he will see that, after
he admits our congratulations and we
admit his specifications there still re-
mains intact our criticism that in the
great majority of these cases, the APP
plication is not due to the initiative of
the intending citizen, but to the activ
ity of men who take an active interest
in politics and who hunt these unnat-
uralized out and bring them in in
blocks OF fifty to one hundred to I'M
dergo the lightning change from a for
eign subject to an American citizen.
This, we argued, indicated an indiffer-
ence on their part to the value of citi-
zenship and tended to cheaper that
great privilege. We are saved the need
of accounting for this Indifference as
due to their ignorance, either of the
constitutional amendment or to their
suppOsitiOn that they were full citi-
Zens, by the statement of Mr.. Rogers
that most Of these very men who are
now applying for full citizenship vOlun-
tarily voted, for the good of the state
as was supposed, to curtail their own
rights and privileges" 1t would seem
to follow that men who had thus voted
themselves out of the quasi citizenship
enjoyed prior to the amendment of the
constitution by voting for that amend
ment did not need either to be advised
of the effect of the amendment or to
be hunted up and brought into court to
save themselves from complete, if tenn
porary Observation-Disclosures. We therefore
fail to find ourselves in disagreement
with Mr.. Rogers at any point.

Grafton When the assistant secretary's
benefactor framed the bill that put the
indorsed policy into effect in 1890 he
imagined he was building for eternity.
But his foundations began to tremble
under his policy before the superstruc-
ture was fairly completed, and in two
years they went out entirely. The
Democrats came in and began to con-
struct their policy, using largely the
debris of the wrecked and demolished
one, and even that refused to stay set
tied. The trouble is in the foundations,
and nothing built of that. kind of ma
terial can ever stay settled very long.
There will be dynamite under it next
year and more the two years following,
and then the Worthy Master and assis-
tant secretary can have leisure in his
Chic home to ponder on the unsettled
ness of the things that are settled.

ATHENS IS EXCITED.
Torpedo Scandal Is Involving the
ROYAL Family.

BRINDISI, Italy, Nov. n.-Letters
received here today from Athens say
that the torpedo scandal continues to
be the sensation of the Grecian CAPT
tai. The basis of the scandal was the
discovery of the fact that all the car
tridges fitted to the torpedoes during
the war with Turkey were not pro-
vided with percussion caps and fulnll-
mating mercury, and that, therefore,
they would have been useless in case
they were needed. The committee of
investigation appointed to inquire into
the matter decided that two ofhcerS
Capts. Rastopoulo and Anastasi, must
be tried by court martial on the charge
of culpable negligence. Capt. Rasto-
poulo, who is now being tried, has ask
ed that Prince George of Greece, who
commanded the torpedo f1otllla during
the war. and who was, previous to the
war. a great favorite with the masses,
be called as a witness. The court has
refused to do this, and the Greek news
papers are publishing vigorous articles
on the subject, the anti-dynastic Hes
tia going so far as to demand that
Prince George be tried by court mar
tiaI. The prince is known to be deep
ly affected by the scandal, and by the
attacks made upon him and upon the
royal family generally, in consequence
of this fresh example of the unpre-
naredness of Greece for an outbreak of
hostilities.

REACHES OUT FOR A SLICE
OF CHINA.
Sends Fleet to COreR to Demand the
Reinstatement of a British Consular
Agent Who Was DepOsed in Favor of
q RusSlAn-situatIOn In the Far East

LONDON, Dec. pa special dispatch
from Shanghai says: 1t is reported
that seventeen British war-ships are
off Chemulpo, Corea, southwest OF
Seoul, supporting the British consul's
protest, really amounting to an ulti-
matum against the Kings practically
yielding the government of Corea into
the hands of the Russian minister
The protest is especially directed
against the dismissal of McLevy
Brown, British adviser of the Corean
customs, in favor of the Russian NOM
inee, The news has produced con-
sternation at Seoul, which is height
ened by the knowledge that Japan
has feet of thirty warships awaiting
the result of the British representa-
ton that Japan fully supports.
Japan is irritated by the arrival of
Russian troops in Corea, and it is be-
lieved that she will oppose them.
According to advices from Toxic,
Japan has offered to assist the officers
at Pekin in drilling the Chinese army
and to consent to postponement of
the war indemnity. Many of the vice.
roys and Pel1in officials favor the pro-
posal.
According to dispatch to the Daily
Mail from Shanghai, it is reported
there, from reliable sources, that
British force landed at Chemulpo on
Saturday and caused the reinstate-
ment of McLevy Brown. The same
dispatch refers to "a native rumor
that the union jack has been hoisted
on an island in the mouth of the river
Yang Using"
The Pekin correspondent of the
Times says: The government refuses
to place the Lil1in under foreign con-
troll as security for the loan proposed
by the Hong Kong and Shanghai
bank, and assert that unless the loan
is procurable without this condition,
arrangements will forthwith be made
for Russian guaranteed per cent
loan of 100, 900, 900 teals, to be issued
at 90 net.
The security would be the land tax
which would remain under Chinese
administration China in return would
give Russia q monopoly of the rail
roads and mines north of the great
wall, open port to aid railway traffic
and would agree that the Russian
should succeed Sir Arthur Hart as
director of Chinese imperial maritime
customs. If these conditions should
be permitted, British trade interests
would suffer severely.
BERLIN, Dec. 27-An inspired Chi
nese organ published here says that
the Chinese emperor in order to avoid
the reproach of having lost territory
will lease Kiao-Chau TO Germany in
perpetuity at a low rate with all the
rights of sovereignty that England
exercises at Hong Kong.

A SQUEEZE In OATS.
THE CHICAGO MARKET BE-
LlEVED TO BE CORNERED.
Young Letter Said to BE Master OF tho
TrAdO-Has 100000 bushels on
His HAnds-shOrts Expected to Pay
Dearly.

CHICAGO, Dec, 27.--Friday, which
will witness the close Of the great
Letter deal in wheat on the board of
trade, bids fair to prove q memorable
day in the trade. No great excite
ment is expected in the wheat pit, but
in oats a squeeze of shorts may occur
1t is believed that Mr. Letter has
been turning trick on the trade in
oats, while every body was watching
wheat For weeks the oats pit has
been practically deserted. Last week
there was disagreeable surprise to
the men who had sold 6,000,O0j bush
els of oats for December delivery
when they learned that no oats were
being delivered. Then they awoke to
the fact that in all the Chicago ele-
vators oats measured but 950,0O0
bushels of the contract grades.
1t was Wednesday when the dis
covery was made. The price of De-
cember oats was then 90% cents. On
Friday the market closed at 2?%
cents. A cent advance in oats is as
good as 4 or cents in wheat It is
too late to rush in supply to meet
the calls which will be made for the
grain at the close of business on Fri
day. Those who have not delivered
the grain according to contract will
be called upon to settle at the closing
prices. The situation has all the ele-
ments of squeeze.

trust will seek to induce the manufac-
turers of billets to promise not to sell
to wire manufacturers that may pos
sibly start outside of the trust and
in return the trust will promise to
take billets from all these manufac-
turers us it may need them The OBJ
ject of this is to keep the billet MAX
