WASHINGTON. D. c., oct. ls.-Tha
officials OF the state departmentexpress-
ed a great deal of surprise at the re-
port OF the arrest in San Francisco OF
James Flood. Flood appears to have
gotten into difficulty at Kobe, Japan
the charge being embezzlement OF bank
funds, so far MS the department here
knows, He started for the United
states and while en- route United States
Consul Lyon, at Kobe, notified the
state department that he had directed
the United States marshal at San Fran
cisco not 10 arrest Flood upon his arriv-
al at that point; This was a very un-
usual proceeding in view of the tace
that the alleged offense was committed
In Japan and the Japanese government
has not taken any steps to prosecute
Flood. The consul based his action on
the allegation that Flood was n fugi"
tive from the consular court at Kobe.
This does not, however. alter the legal
aspect Of the case and It is not plain
that Flood can be detained by the Cali
Ifornia judicial Authorities,

THE FAILING LEAVES.
Autumnal Tlnts Have Never Been Re
produced With Fidelity.


The poetlcal failing of the lear is
produced BY the formation Of a thin
layer Of vegetable tissue at the point
where the leaf stem Joins the branch.
After the leaf stem ceases to make SUI
gar and starch for the tree this tissue
begins to grow and actually cuts the
leaf of. The leaves do not drift down
merely because the wind sweeps
through the branches and bends the
dry stems; trees cast of those members
that are no longer useful to their
growth and vigor When the leaf falls
the scar left on its branch is quickly
healed over, that none OF the sap need
ed by the tree may escape.
The scientists say that its change OF
color Is not entirely due to frost; amy
force which prevents the leaf fulfilling
its functions win cause 1t to change col
or; these differences are caused by
changes in the grains OF the color pig

From whence was the proof to come,
to ourselves as well as to the world,
that we were being moved once again
by common impulse. andby the same
heart that inspired and gave strength
to the hands that smote the British In
the days Of the Revolution, and again
at New Orleans; that made our ships
the masters of the seas that placed our
nag on chapultepec. and wldened our
domain from ocean to ocean? How was
the world,to know that the burning fires
OF patriotism, so essential to national
glory and achievement, had not been
quenched by the blood spilled by the
heroes Of both sides Of the most des-
perate struggle known in the history
Of civil wars? How was the doubt that
stood, all unwilling. between outssretch-
ed hands and sympathetic hearts, to be,
in fact, dIspelled?
"If from out the caldron OF conflict
there arose this doubt, only from the
cruclble OF war could come the answer.
And. thank God. that answer has been
made in the record OF the war. the
peaceful termination of which we cele-
brate tonight. Read 1t in every page
of Its history. read 1t In the oblitera-
ton OF party and sectional lines In the
congressional action which called the
nation to arms In the defense Of pros
trate liberty, and for the extension Of
the sphere Of human freedom; read 1t
In the conduct Of the distinguished fed
eral soldier who. as the chief executive
Of this great republic, fonors this oc-
caslon by his presence tonight. and
whose appointments in the first COM
missions Issued after war had been de-
clared made manifest the sincerity of his
oft.rspeated utterapces OF complete sec-
tlonal reconciliation and the elimination
OF sectional lines in the affairs of gav-
eminent. Differing with him, as ] do
on party issues, utterly AT variance with
the views Of his party on economic prob

WILL NOT CHANGE THE DATE.
Senator's Say Revenue Law Must Take
Effect July 1.

WASHINGTON June 21.-Secretary Gage
to-day wrote a letter to the House ways and
means committee and the Senate finance
committee stating that it is absolutely i'm
possible to put the adhesive stamp sections
of the war revenue measure into operation
on July l, and asking that the time be ex-
tended until July Is and that the commits
sion be increased from l to 8 per cent. in
order to increase popular interest in the dis
tribution of the stamps. The Senate finance
committee, however, is unanimously of the
opinion that the extension should not be
made. A member of the committee says the
date fixed was suggested by the Internal
Revenue Bureau, that an extension would
mean great loss to the government anu
besides, if the question is once opened the
bill would be loaded with amendments in the
Senate and it would be difficult to secure
any action. Many amendments have been
suggested and the House has sent Dill TO
the Senate, but it will not be reported.

A VIGOROUS LETTER.

Those who are opposing the policy of ter
ritoriaI acquisition or of maintaining
colonial dependencies will find in the COM
munication of Mr.. Maurice Thompson, pub
lished in yesterdays Journal. number of
reasons in favor of both which it will give
them some trouble to refute. 1t is too late
in this or any other discussion to call back
to life the heresy of the strict construction
of the Constitution to the effect that the
general government cannot exercise any au-
thorty which is not specially conferred by
the organic law. The Constitution was
adopted for the purpose of insuring the peo-
pie of the colonies more perfect union,
which means to make them nation. This
being the case, the Constitution must be
construed in a manner that will give the
widest scope and the largest powers to the
federal government. Consequently, all ar
guments like that of Senator Bacon to
prove the annexation of Hawaii unconstitu-
tional are irrelevant because they belong to
that past when Presidents vetoed appropria-
tons for the construction of the National
road from the Atlantic to the Mississippi
river.
There is much in what Mr.. Thompson has
to say about our position as a power among
the nations. AS a people we have talked
great deal of our ability and entire willing
ness to lick all creation whenever "all
creation" shall indicate desire for the cas-
tigation. Those who have been doing hon.
est and intelligent thinking the past two
months have materially modified their views
in regard to our fighting capacity. So far
as fighting is concerned we are not in any
position to defy the world. 1t may be lit
tie humiliating as Mr.. Thompson says, but
it is probably true that If Great Britain had
not promptly become our friend we woul1
now be engaged in defensive war with
several powers as opponents. AS Mr..
Thompson says. If we are to have a positive
influence among the nations we must have
a large navy af1oat, with coaling stations
and other possessions wherever they may
be of use to U.S. The United States is at
war with Spain because its civilization is at
war with the fifteenth century civilization
OF Spain. Such being the case, we must not
yield until Cuba. the Philippines and Porto
Rico are under the sway of our civilization,

WASHINGTON. June 21.-The anti-an-
neXationists in the Senate have practically
thrown up their hands, and their leader,
Senator White. has announced that there
will be no filibuster in the offensive sense
of the word. The opposition party has ten
or fifteen speeches to make, but no attempt
will be made to string them out to unneces-
sary length. An hour or an hour and
halt at the end of the Hawaiian debate each
day, when wanted for consideration of APP
preparation bills and conference reports has
been promised. so that when vote is finally
reached on annexation other business will
be up, and Congress will be ready to adj
journ. The expectation now is that Con-
gress will get away for good on Saturday
July 2. That will give twelve working days
for the conclusion of pending business.
Strong eHort IS being made to induce the
annexation party to consent to naming
day in December next for a vote on the
proposition. but this does not meet with
favor.
