SCIENCE AT ST. LOUIS.

The International Congress Of Arts and Sci
ence opens at St Louis to-day. As will be seen
on referring TO the outline OF this enterprise
printed in another column, its aim is to bring
out more conspicuously than ever before the
kinship existing between different branches Of
knowledge. hint of that relationship was af-
forled by the programme Of the congress which
met in New-Nork last week. Geography was
there considered from economic, oceanographic,
geological, educational. historical and other
points Of view In studying the origin Of the
earth the geologist and astronomer meet on
common ground. Many Of the methods of in
vestlgation employed by the 2oologist can be
adopted prOfitably by the botanst 4 fuller
statement of these and similar affiliations is
certainly desirable. No startling revelations are
likely TO be made in ST. Louis this week, but
an examination Of underlying principles and the
problems yet to be solved cannot fall to do good.
Each paper will appeal, perhaps. to a limited
constituency, but the experiment was well
worth trying.
A superficial glance at the list Of speakers
raises some questions which cannot he an.
swered readily Offhand. Among those who take
part there is a vast preponderance OF college
professors. Whether these men have most of
the useful learning Of the world is point which
might advanta geously be discussed at length.
When Sir William Ramsay was in town the
other day he said that he was coming to at
tach less importance than the majority Of other
instructors to a university degree 1t Is GER
tainly gratifying 10 notice how literally New
York City is represented In the congress. More
than forty of the American speakers-fully one
hfth-have been selected from the metropolis
More than n score OF them, however, occupy
chairs In Columbia. but none Of the other col
leGes in this city appear TO be represented 1t
is greatly TO be regretted that complications
arose which made such an omission possible.

have to attack the Japanese upon what mas be-
come their ground, and drive them from tne
fortifcatlons in which they will then be settled
Now. there is nothing in war more aAlofnatic
than. that the attacking force needs TO be
stronger than the defensive. But this year the
Russians have been weaker than the japanese;
so much weaker that they could not stand
against them on fortified ground OF their own
choosing. Next year, then, they must be FAR
stronger They must he as much stronger than
the Japanese as the Japanese have this year
been stronger than they. Can they develop such
strength?
1t depends largely upon the carrying power OF
the Trans-Siberian Railroad. How many men
that road has carried since the war began we
do not surely know. But we know that the
lowest estimate of Russian troops in the Far
East when the war began was 5O0o0 chiefly at
Port Arthur, and that the highest estimate of
Kuropatkin's strength at LiaO- Yang was 100000.
Now the original $4,000 are fully accounted for
at Port Arthur and Vladivostok ard in losses
before the great battle at Liac-Yang. Kuropat-
kins 100000 men, therefore on the most favor
able possible basis of calculation, were all the
railroad was able to carry in six months, and
that with commercial traffic suppressed and the
whole capacity of the road given to military
Uses, and with every effort made to hurry troops
forward. That result accOrds pretty closely
with the estimate Of experts that the railroad,
worked to its full capacity. can deliver at Har-
bin only about 1000 soldiers q day. At that
rate, supposing the forwarding Of troops could
be kept up all winter-of course it cannot-and
suppOsing KurOpatkin now TO have 10000 men
left, the second year of the war would open
with not more than $4,000 Russians in the
field. That the Japanese could have twice that
number there is no reason to doubt So. then.
the second campaign would open with the
same disparity of forces as before, but with
their attitudes reversed. In the first a Russian
force, on the defensive was beaten by larger
Japanese force on the aggressive. In the sec
Ond. there would be Russian force on the ag-
gresslve against a larger Japanese force on the
defensive. In such a campaign, it must be con-
fessed. the Russian prospects Of success would
Nhe DOOR indeed.

CURSED THE PRESIDENT


SPOKANE, Wash, Sept. 9.-An OBJ
streperous Finlander, Martin Elickson
40 years of age, is languishing in the
tolls of the immigration and customs
officials at Northport, Wash, and was
bound over to the United States Com
missioner William P. Hughes yester-
day for resisting examination by the
officials. A number Of foreigners COM
ing in from Canada have been making
life miserable for the officials lately,
and when it required four men to re-
move the burly Finn from the train it
was decided to make an example of
him. When lodged in Jail the Finn
cursed the United States and it's off,
Gals from the immigration inspector
to the president and back down the
line, with a f1uency marvellous.
