/ The Italian cruiser Liguria, Prince
Luigi Anadeo of Savoy-Aosta, Duke
| of Abruzzi, in command, arrived here
yesterday and will remain in port for
| fifteen days. Prince Luigi, who holds
the rank of commander in the italian
navy, is making a tour of the world
and after leaving this coast will turn
the Ligurias bow toward the Far
East, where he expects to see some
thing of the Russo-Japanese war.
The Italian Consul, his flag flying
on the Crowley launch Guide, choo-
chooed alongside the Liguria and
when the cruiser came to an anchor
went aboard and paid his respects to
the cousin of his King. "A number of
Italian fishermen, in bright painted
crab boats, also gasolined their way
to the Liguria's side and footed well
come to Italy's democratic Prince.
This is the Liguria's first visit to
this port. She is cruiser of the third
class and smaller than the Paglia,
which was here some months ago. She
is a vessel of 22S0 tons register and
was built in 1893 at cost of $685.

and carries 257 officers and men. She

Amadeo of Savoy and cousin to Vic
tor Emmanuel, King of Italy. Luigi,
in spite of his youth, is one of the
most picturesque figures in the world
of science. AS an Arctic explorer he
made his way further north than did
DR.. Nansen. He is a famous noun
tain climber and got nearer to the
summit of Mount st. Elias than any
climber who had preceded him.
His visit to America was in 1896,
when he came here as a lieutenant at
tached to the cruiser Cristoforo Co
lombo. A year later, accompanied by
a small party of friends and scientists.
he came here again for the purpose
of ascending Mount st. Elias. He had
made all the great climbs in his ma
tive Alps and turned to the Alaska
peak in the hope that he might go
beyond the points reached by Cop
ham, Russell, Bryant, Schwartka and
other sturdy explorers. His party
reached an altitude of 1S,100 feet,
several thousand feet higher than the
best previous record.
Prince Luigi, accompanied by his
flag Lieutenant and Pier Luigi Grim
ami, the Italian Vice Consul, called
on General Macarthur yesterday af-
ternoon. General Macarthur and
Colonel George Andrews and Major
Parker w. West will return the call
of the Prince on Monday morning,
leaving Fort Mason on the Slocum at
10 o'clock.

TRICKERY OF CHINA.

Special Cable to The Cali and New York Her
aid Copyright. 1904, by the New York
Herald Publishing Company.
ST. PETERSBURG, April 23.-In Of
fetal circles nothing is known respect
ing the reported irritation in China and
the alleged desire of the Peking Gov
ernment to withdraw it's Minister here.
l am, however, enabled to state au-
thoritatively that Russia caught the
Chinese playing tricks on several occa-
sions and each time China unfailingly
received a smart rap upon the knuckles
from this country, which regime will
be continued vigorously. 1t appears
that the examination of an officer re-
Gently shot as a spy revealed that he
carried passports granted at Picking.
Russia fully realizes the danger of
China becoming engaged in the war
and is firmly convinced that the only
way to check this complication is to
exercise severity, which is demonstrate
ed by General Kuropatkins brusquely
worded remonstrance.
Something of a sensation was caused
here this afternoon by report, spread
far and wide, that the Chinese Minis
ter, Hoo Wei Teh, was packing up
preparatory to departing from ST. Pc
tersburg, and visions of immediate war
were conjured up. The only foundation
for the rumor was the fact that the
Minister has taken summer cottage
at Gatshina, thirty miles from st. Pc
tersburg, for which place he will short
ly leave the capital.

PEKING. April 23,-All trustworthy
accounts from the main base of the
Russian army in Manchuria support
the view that General Kuropatkin is
clearing the country between the Yalu
and Liaoyang of every form of susten-
ance for men and animals, preparatory
TO a general retirement inland. Cattle
are being driven north in vast droves,
followed by wagon trains laden with
food and forage. The inhabitants are
threatened with famine, and as many
as are able are migrating in north
westerly direction.
1t is estimated that General Kuro-
patkin's force is now close to 200, 900
men. This number is regarded as suf-
ficient for a certain amount of often
sive action, but it is believed that the
Russian commander has elected to fall
back to the mountainous region about
Liaoyang, in order to draw the Japan
ese across the extensive foodless area
and thus come into grips with the
enemy under circumstances favorable
to the Russian army 1t is apparent
that Kuropatkin feels the advisability.
if not the necessity, of withdrawing be-
yond easy reach of the numerous flank
ing operations Japan can engineer with
the aid of it's triumphant navy
ST. PETERSBURG, April 23.-The
Russians have placed guns covering
the crossing of the Yalu River. While
General Kuropatkin desires that the
Japanese shall enter Manchuria, he
purposes that they shall pay as dearly
as possible for the privilege, but with
out precipitating a general engage
ment. Major General Kashtalinsky is
anxious to engage the enemy and
begged General Kuropatkin for per-
mission to do so, but the commander
in-chief strictly forbade even small
skirmishes where it was possible to
avoid them. 1t is understood that
General Kuropatkin intends to deliver
the decisive battle himself In the
meantime the cavalry and artillery
at the front are engaged in constant
drill and reconnaissance.
The story that an attempt was made
on General Kuropatkins life by two
disguised japanese while the conn-
mander in chief was in Newchwang
few days ago is confirmed. The
would-be assassins impersonated Chi
nese beggars. They wore false queues.
One of them reached for a dagger, but
was felled by one of two Cossacks who
always accompany the general.
TOXIC, April 23.-The dispatch an
nouncing the landing of 10000 Japanese
soldiers near Dalny is apocryphal If
true it would mean immediate fighting.

CRIME, LIKE
DISEASE, IS
CONTAGIOUS
Becomes Epidemic at
Regular In
terValS.
Special Cable to The Call and New York Her
aid. Copyright, 1904. by the New York
Herald Publishing Company.

LONDON, April 23.-Some strange
and bewildering side lights are thrown
upon the problem of crime and the
criminal by blue book issued under
the name of Sir John Macdonald, mas
ter of the Supreme Court. During the
last twenty years there has been a
reduction in crime of the graver sort,
but he points out that every now and
then, at fairly regular intervals, there
is wave of serious crime. which some
times extends over a half year and
sometimes eighteen months.
The year 1902 was one of a crime
wave In 1903 the total number of per-
sons tried in this country was 661 ,667
while in 1902 the figures were 7S7, 7,676.
This increase was chiefly in crimes
against property, while crimes against
public morals showed marked decrease;
but, as Sir John Macdonald pointed
out, all figures show that neither penal
servitude nor imprisonment serves to
deter the habitual offender from re-
sorting to crime, the most incorrigible
of all | eing women.
OF the graver crimes which show
marked increase are murders and bur-
glary.
In view of the enormous increase in
taxation in the proposed Chancellors
budget on Tuesday. it is not pleas
ant thought to the British taxpayer
that he has to pay nearly six millions
a year for the suppression of crirne. as
revealed in this blue book, and more
than twelve millions for relief of the
poor.
AS to the causes of the increase of
crime Sir John Macdonald has little to
say. except that the manufacture of
nitroglycerin has created new forms
of crime of grave character. but he
gives no specific details to demonstrate
this.

LONDON, April 24.-The Foreign Of
flee has now come to a definite agree
ment with the Zionists as to the loca-
ton and the extent of the tract it is
ready to give them in East Africa This
is to consist of 5000 square miles of land
northeast of Victoria Nyanza. 1t in
cludes the Nandi plateau and is very
fertile, we'll watered and we'll forested.
An important point in the concession
is that the land is only five miles dis
tant from the Uganda Railway and
thirty hours railway journey from the
coast.
If necessary it is possible that the
Foreign Office will hereafter extend the
concession still further. so as to give
the Zionist colony a port on the Vic
toria Nyanza.
There will be no Zionist congress this
year, but in it's stead the greater action
committee has just met in Vienna and
indorsed the sending of a committee of
inquiry into the suitability of the site
for Hebrew colonization.
