People who are taking the outdoor treat
ment for the cure of consumption were not
driven from their methods by the late cold
spell. Two ladies of Meriden, Conn, one
aged twenty-four and her neighbor aged
forty years, slept on their verandas on the
night of Jan. 4. with the thermometer 80
degrees below zero. 1t is stated that in
each case the clothing consisted of the ordi-
nary nightclothes worn by women in nor
NAL health. two wooden blankets and one
quilt. Last July the younger woman was
considered by physicians and relatives so
far gone that she could not live a week and
was greatly emaciated. The other was not
quite so bad, but her case was regarded as
hopeless. y remarkable Improvement has
taken place in their conditions. The first is
vigorous and strong, and both think them
selves nearly rid OF the disease. a daugh-

AMERICAN STEAMSHIP
HELD AT PORT ARTHUR
Russian Government Asked to Ex-
plain Why the Vessel Is Not
Released.
HAD A CARGO OF FLOUR

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-The State De-
partment has instructed Ambassador Nc
Cormick to ask the Russian government at
st. Petersburg for an explanation of the
compulsory detention in the harbor of Port
Arthur Of the American steamship Pleiades,
which conveyed a cargo of flour to that
place from Honolulu just before the out
break of the hostilities. The ship is owned
by the Boston Towboat Company, which
has made formal complaint to the State
Department, hence the instructions to Min
lister Mccormick.
By some officials here the opinion is ex-
pressed that the OBTAINING of the ship is not
a violation of international law provided
adequate demurrage is paid TO the owners
of the vessel. IT is assumed that the vessel
is detained for strategical purposes and ma
val officers point out that her departure
at this time might enable the Japanese
to learn important facts about the condi-
ton of affairs at Port Arthur. 1t is rough
ly estimated that a sufficient demurrage
would be from 800 to 500 per day. depend
ing the value of the vessels return

bR|TONS ARE JUb|LANT
OVER JAPAN'S VICTORIES
London Newspapers Are Saying
Little, but the People Are
Rejoicing
LESSON FOR NAVAL MEN

LONDON. Feb. 1S-The end of the first
calendar week of the Russo-Japanese war
brings intense satisfaction in Great Britain,
and the extent of the popular jublations
finds no adequate explanation in the Lon
don press, which is careful not to offend
Russia.
From the point of view of the man in the
street Great Britain's far Eastern ally,
Japan, has exceeded all expectations, and
even the national and the military officers,
who prophesied initial success for Japan,
are surprised The destruction or disable
ment OF nine Russian war vessels at the
opening of the struggle is generally regard
ed by experts as giving Japan control of
the far Eastern seas. Lord Salisbury's s
much-cOndemned treaty with Japan now
stands among the most popular steps un-
dertaken by any British statesman.
Countless deductions. both military and
naval are drawn publicly and privately
from the dramatic events which have oc-
CURED since Monday, and all the inherent
naval interest pervading the United King
dom has been stirred to its DEPTHS by the
duel between Viceroy Alexieff and Vice
Admiral Togo. If the British themselves
had been involved in the movements of the
opposing fleets they could scarcely have fol-
lowed them with keener zest.
What strikes those responsible for the
naval policy OF Great Britain as most re-
markabe is the extraordinary dispropor-
liOll bctMccu lllS udHldSe lnlllcleu ana the
loss suffered by Japan. The immunity of
the fleets of the United States at Manila
and Santiago astOunded the naval authori-
ties here, and now, when Japan to all in
tents, gains control of the sea without the
loss of single war vessel and with only
four men killed and fifty-four wounded.
high naval and military officers in London
openly confess that they are amazed.
Putting Japan's experience during the
past week side by side with the results of
the American engagements against the
SnqniCh authorities hax
to the important conclusion that the eff
cheney of the navy personnel possesses an
infinitely greater value oversthe material at
hand than has ever before been attributed
to il.

ALL THE GREAT POWERS

DR.. Toyokichie Iyenaga Thinks
the War in the Far East
May Spread.
IT DEPENDS ON RUSSIA

CHICAGO, Feb. 13-"It is extremely prob
able that the United States and each of the
great powers will do actual fighting before
this war is over. The United States has
taken a strong and courageous position"
DIR. Toyokichie Iyenaga. formerly secre-
tary in the foreign department of the Jap
anese government, made the above predic-
ton to-day. DR.. Iyenaga has just COM
pleted a series of lectures in Chicago under
the auspices of the University of Chicago.
DIR. Iyenaga said: ''All along L have been
saying that the United States and England
should join with Japan i'm settling this far
Eastern question in the interests of modern
progressive civilization. The United States
has done just what Japan has wanted.
President Roosevelt and Secretary Hay, by
proposing to limit the question, have taken
a very strong stand. The only way TO pre-
vent general war in which all the nations
would be fighting, would be to carry out the
proposal which has been made by the
United States Who can tell now whether
that will be accepted by Russia or not? If
it is not, the interests of the United States
are so great and the stand has been so
strong that it would not do to say the

greatest number OF times Some of the
most lifelike and characteristic OF the por-
traits OF Washington We're left in an un-

HYE[[OW PERIL" HAUNTS
GERMANY'S STATESMEN
While that Country Will Remain
Neutral, All German Sympa-
thies Are for Russia.
WANT MUSCOVITE TO WIN

BERLIN. Feb. 13.-The position Of the
German government respecting the Russo
Japanese war is we'll defined. 1t is exact
neutrality In act, but in sentiment it is SYM
nafhetic toward Russian predominance in
China ra her than japanese predominance
there.
The common talk in ministerial quarters
Is that this is not a simple contest for terri
tory in Korea or Manchuria, but rather a
combat OF civilizations and OF race ideals,
and. il one must choose between the white
and the yellow, Germany stands by the
white.
The government here is conscious that
Russia has not acted wisely and that Japan
has sufficient reasons for making war, and
especially that after the Chino-Japanese
war in 1884 Japan was advised to give up
Port Arthur and that Russia took possession
OF this place. Germany recognizes, also, that
other powers have cause for complaint in
that Russia did not keep her promise TO
evacuate Manchuria, and among these pow
ers is Germany. which holds opinions iden-
tical with those OF the United states con-
cerning the "open door" The Foreign Office
has this week expressed this view TO the
state Department at Washington, but be
yOnd these considerations there are, accord
ing 10 very high German official. greater
considerations OF craftsmanship which
prompt Germany TO withhold its sympathy
not be vanquished-
japanese victory is believed by this Off
cial TO mean that Japanese influence would
be supreme in China. and that the cry
would go up. Asia for Asiatics." He be-
lieves also that territorially and econom-
ically Great Britain, Germany and the
United States would. in the event of Ja-
pans winning. be expelled from the East.
In Germany there is fOreseen state OF
affairs when Japan shall have trained sew
eral million Chinese as soldiers and sailors
and inspired them as GOrdon's "ever VIC
torious" army was inspired by successful
and thoughtful leadership. The yellow
peril Is a conviction in Germany, and Ger
mans readily accept the view of Russia
that to give Japan equal rights to enter
and settle Manchuria and 10 cross the three
thousand miles OF frontier separating China
from Russia might turn Western civiliZa-
tion back upon the Ural mountains. The
Russian peasant cannot compete with the
Chinese or tne japanese, and IL the United
States. with three thousand miles of ocean
between IL and China, has adopted a Chi
nese exclusion law, and If Great Britain is
disturbed lest the Chinese get a footing in
South Africa, how much more. as German
thinkers often aver. should Russia and all
Eurdpe fear this economic invasion. Chi
nese miners are now excluded from Siberia
The yellow danger is accepted in Ger
many as a substantial fact and il is be-
neved that Japanese imitation has already
resulted In injuring Germany's trade in the
Gar East.

4 MILLIONAIRE'S BANK.
Requisition of Wealthy Depos-
itOr Not HOnOred.
New York Evening Post.

New York Evening Post.
a wellknOwn millionaire hastily entered
a few days ago, the bank where he carried a
large deposit. He had left his pocketbook
home and wanted cash. The bank was
sorry, but could not accommodate him. 1t
was past 4 o'clock. the vaults were closed
and the executive staff had gone home
The subordinate officers held a quick
council; and one of them thus described
the result:
I'VE piled up every cent we had in our
clothes, then we went through the clerks
and had every man i'm the establishment
turn his pockets inside out. The customer
was many times a millionaire, and could
secure from us any day whatever sum he
needed. But the time locks were set, and
the best we could do was $50 in cash He
stuffed the roll in his pocket and hurriedly
went on his way. We did not even ask for
a memorandum, knowing that he detested
details, and that a subsequent word with
his secretary was all that would be needed
to reimburse the bank"
The incident may be taken as illustrating
first, the limit which is drawn in the con-
troll of banks by great fnanciers. of which
so much has been lately heard; second, the
advisability Of presenting checks before 3
p. m; and third, the absorbing power of
great wealth and credit over the surplus
cash of small capitalists
