MIR. ROOSEVELT
PLEASES RUSSIA
His Recent Proclamation on OBJ
servance of Neutrality Prod uces
A Good Impression.

St. Petersburg, Mar. 14.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt's recent proclama-
ton regarding the observance of
neutrality by all officials and the
abstinence from either action or
speech which might cause irrita-
ton to either Japan or Russia has
produced a great impression here.
The newspapers this morning print
prominently articles commencing
the substance and spirit of the pro-
clamation in the highest terms.
The Official Gazette accepts it
unreservedly as complete answer
to the charges that the American
government is hostile to Russia
and declares that hereafter, depite
any seemingly untoward incident
which may arise, it will be con-
sidered settled once and for all
''that the American government
has taken a friendly attitude to-
wards our aims and policies in the
far east adding:
"This undoubtedly marks a
change in American sentiment, the
people there realizing the danger of
supporting Japan.
The Novosti halls the suspicious
iniative of President Roosevelt in
the interest of universal peace and
good relationship between Russia
and the United States, saying:
"He yields practically unlimited
authority with respect to the foreign
policy of the country, Secretary
Hay submitting to the will of the
president.
The Russ welcomes the proclama-
ton as convincing evidence of a
more friendly feeling on the part of
the Americans for Russia.
The Boerse Gazette remarks
"Theodore Roosevelt was the first
ruler to respond to the warning cry
issued many years ago by Emperor
William against the yellow
peril. ~
The St. Petersburg Zeitung
asserts that the proclamation leaves
no further doubt that the United
States has a firm intention to
observe strict neutrality and adds
1T bears the stamp of strong and
most distinguished personality. +"
The papers also make a display
this morning of the denial of the
Newchwang reports that the United
States intends to support the pro-
test of the commander of the United
States gunboat Helena against the
plan of the Russian authorities to
sink junks at the entrance of the
Lao river, evidently considering
that this puts an end to the state
ment which caused a furry here
yesterday, and that further comment
is unnecessary.
The Alexander committee an
nounces that in addition to the
regular army pensions a supple
mentary pension of $25 year will
be given to the widows and orphans
of the nom commissioned officers and
1924 to those of soldiers and sailors
killed in the face of the enemy.

Bull Run, is pointed out by the old
settlers
Most of the buildings of this region,
the farm houses as we'll as the churches
and village halls, were once used for
purposes of war, as the headquarters of
officers, or as kitchens or hospitals.
Many of the members of Sudley meet

terry, which made a breach in the walls
of the Sudley meeting house, is still
preserved by one of the congregation.
Bethel church, which was used as the
headquarters of F'itz-John Porter, has
been moved four miles from it's old
site, but the foundation stones may
be seen by those who will enter the
thicket of underground and tangle of
vines that hide them.
The moving habit which sets the
city man adrift every May, and, per-
chance, a half dozen more times a
year, is unknown to the inhabitants
of the valley of Bull Run. Almost
every survivor of war times dwells in
the same house and sleeps in the same
room now as then. Mr.. Lewis still

ston made his headquarters. Robin

home when Hunter and Heintzelman
drove Bee, Barlow and Evans from
the heights north of the pike to those
south of it, is still ''tah home" Mrs.
Dogan, through whose farm runs the
railroad cut where Porter, Sigel, Rey-
nolds and King fought in the second
battle, on Aug. 80, 1852, to dislodge
Jackson, is now eighty-sev years
old. yet she still delights to tell of the
"old red days" as she calls them. She
relates one story with particular emo
ton of how she was ordered from her
home by Jackson as the engagement
began and returned to find the dead
and wounded lying in heaps about her
doors. She says the bodies of Union
soldiers, who fell in such numbers in
the cut, were simply covered with a
few shovelfuls of earth where they lay.
A hm7y rain fell a week or SO later,
and, going out one morning, she found
the corpses all exposed again to the
open sky.
There is no Confederate monument
on the battlefield. and the bones taken
from the Confederate lines of the sec
ond battle are buried on knoll a

and in between the trunks of dwarfed

sobriquet of "Stonewall." The federal

attack about lie o'clock in the morning.
and, supported by Tyler, was driving
the Confederate left when it was finally
stopped here by Jackson, intrenched
behind rail fence. Earthworks near
Manassas and Centerville clearly mark
the camps of Beauregard and Nc
Dowell before the first battle.
Here and there the visitor in wan
dering over the fields will come across
a bit of stone or wooden post to re-
mind him that officers had fallen there.
On the Henry farm, for instance,
stakes have been driven to show where
Col. Cameron, commanding the Sew
enty ninth New York regiment, was
killed; where Gen. Bee was shot, where

disappeared. Sudley Springs and
Groveton have only grown in a stunted
way. Manassas, however, whose name
the Confederates have given to the bat
ties fought in this region instead of
that of Bull Run, has risen from q
mere hamlet to a small village, and be-
come the seat Of Prince William
county.
A landmark which recalls with pe-
cullar intensity to the veteran the
memory of the first battle of Bull Run,
which was as well the first important
battle of the Civil war, is the ponder
