Pledges Russia's
Friendship

In discussing the tariff dispute be-
tween this country and Russia Nladi-
mir A. Teplow, Russian consul general.
says The whole trouble is due to a
misunderstanding on the part Of the
United States. Russia has not a b0un-

United States minister has not ade-
quately examined into the matter OF
Russian tariffs. He should do 50 and
report TO the people here. II he did so
there would not be any mlsunder-
standing
Russia and the United States have
too many interests that are mutual
for either one 70 be able to afford to
oppose the other And I wish TO say
that there is no desire on the part Of
Russia 20 oppose this country. Our in
terests commercially are identical, and
we wish America all the progress and
prosperity that can come to her. Il is
absurd to say that we favor Germany
The United States is our nearest neigh
Dor. You can land goods in Russia
from San Francisco with much greater
facility that Germany can from any
part Of her territory. Certainly. Rus
sia is looking for the cheapest market
in which to buy her goods, and that
market is the United States.

my opinion. such a coalition can never

possibly happen, you may b sure that
Russia would not make one OF the op-

10 no line Of development made more
plain than IN the matter Of shipyards.
The Toxic shipyard. covering fully so
acres, is reported as employing 5000
men, who have all the latest machin-
cry. including pneumatic riVeters. Six
steamers Of 100000 tons are on the
stocks. The fact that the works are
equipped with electricity Is further
indication Of the progressive spirit now
ruling
The shipbuildlng yard at Nagasaki Is
also going ahead, but special interest
attaches TO the new government steel
works. Some 5.0O0.0O0 yens have al
ready been spent. but $4,000 900 yens
have been voted. The works are on the
eastern shores Of Kiushlu the most
southern Of the large islands forming
