GERMANS ARE INDIGNANT.
Much Anti-British Feeling Worked
Up Over Recent Seizures of
German Ships.

BERLIN. Jan. 3.-The German foreign
office informed the correspondent of the
Associated Press that Great Britain had
not then answered Germany's note of pro-
test regarding the seizure by the British
cruiser Magicienne of the German Inn
perlal mail steamer Bundesrath on Della
goa bay. 1t appears that the British for
eign office desires first to communicate
with Durham on the subject This desire
is not regarded as indicating any DISPOSE
ton on the part Of Great Britain to delay
the final adjustment Of the matter.
There has been a lively interchange Of
notes between London and Berlin, but
the German foreign Office Is apparently
keeping cool.
On the other hand a violent and threat
ening tone toward Grea. Britain Is OBJ
servable In other than official quarters.

islattre convened in annual session today:
In the senate Timothy Il. Ellsworth, VI
Niagara county, was reelected president
pro tenn, and In the house, Frederick
Nixon, of Chautauqua county, was re-
elected speaker. The annual message OF
Gov. Theodore Roosevelt was read The
governor treats at considerable length of
tho subjects of modern industrial condi-
lions and trusts.
He concludes that, Where a trust be-
comes monopoly the state has an imme-
diate right to interfere. Care should be
taken not to Btihe enterprise or disclose
any facts Of a business that are essentially
OF the public. should exercise the right to
inspect, to examine thoroughly all the
workings Of great corporations, just as Is
now done with banks. and wherever the
interests OF the public demand 1t, 1t Should
publish the results Of Its examination. Then,
IL there are inordinate profits, competition
or public sentiment will give the public the
benefit In lowered prices, and II not, the
power OF taxation remains"
Gov Roosevelt also devotes some space
to a review of labor LEGISLATION IN New
York and commends the work of the board
of mediation and arbitration In dealing
with strikes during the past year. He
promises his approval of drug clerks
that occupation are subjected.
The governor recommended the repeal OF

of state has sent to the house several let
tiers of Harold S. Sewall, the United States
special agent in Hawaii, giving recent de-

wthstanding the provision OF the constiA
tuition of the United States. In another,
Hawaii VS.. Edwards, 1t is held that feIons
may be prosecuted now as prior to the an
fexation Of Hawaii to the United States.

cisions has attracted much attention to

ism, especially from members Of the bar.
He adds that he Is confidentially advised
that an effort will be made by shipment
from Hawaii to America of manufactures
which have paid the Hawaiian duty to
bring the point Of the Peacock case before

ONE TRANSPORT MISSING.
The Victoria In Seventy-eight Days
Out From San Francisco, and
May He Lost.

SAN FRANCISCO Jan. 3.--Twenty per
transport Victoria, which sailed on Octo-
Der II from this port for Manila.
The Victoria broke the thrust block of
her main shaft on November 9, about $500
miles off Manila, near a number of rock
islands.
The transport refused tow from the
Tartar, possibly for the reason that she
wanted to avoid paying salvage. Both
vessels were in the employ of the govern
ment, hut both being under charter, dell
icate question might have arisen In regard
to the tow bill. The Victoria is chartered
at SO much day, but the government will
not pay the price for the time the vessel
is drifting about the Pacific. The Victoria
is an iron steamer of 1850 tons.
This Is not the transport Victoria which
