FINDING OF NAVAL COURT.
Steamer Hipsang Sunk Without JUS
Cause or Reason.

Steamer Hipsang Sunk Without Just
Cause or Reason.
Shanghai, Aug. 24-The finding Of
the naval court of inquiry in the case
of the British steamer Hipsang was
delivered during the morning. The
Hipsang was torpedoed and sunk July
16 while passing Pigeon bay. The
findings Of the court are as follows:
"A Russian torpedo boat destroyer,
now identified as the Ratstoropuy.
came up at daylight with the Hipsang,
whose lights were burning brightly
and who had the British flag flying.
The destroyer fired shells, killing and
manning passengers. The Hipsang
stopped directly, but the Russian YES
sci fired torpedo, sinking her. There
was no contraband aboard her nor any
Japanese. Her captain was expert
enced and he, acted perfectly correct.
The court desires to draw the atten-
ton of the board of trade and the
foreign office that the steamer, while
proceeding with due caution and on
her correct course, was torpedoed
and sunk without any just cause or
reason. The loss of life was due to
the shell fire, previous to the torpedo
ing of the vessel. These acts were
done by the Russian destroyer No. T."

POLITICAL BAROMETERS,

Leslie's Weekly: Vermont on Sep
TENDER 6, 1904, and Maine on Septem-
Der 18th will have elections which will
attract wide attention; throughout the
country A governor and other state
officers and a full delegation in con-
gress, will be elected in each state
The republicans, of course, will be sue
cessful in each, but the extent of their
majority will determine whether the
republican tide throughout the country
is at the food or at the cub in 1904.
In 1892, the year of Clevelands Sec
ond election, when the tide throughout
the country was against the republi-
cans, the lead for the republicans in
the September canvass for state Off
GERS was down to 1902 in Vermont
and to 1881 in Maine. In 1900, when
the republican tide throughout the
country was at the flood stage, the
republicans in September carried Yer.
mont by 1882 and Maine by 34,132
The drop in the republican majority
in those states in September, 1892, was
one of the many signs about that time
that the democrats were likely to win
big majorities in those states in Sep
in November, and they did win. The
TENDER four years ago told republicans
and democrats that Mckinley was go
ing to sweep the country two months
| later.
Already the country has had one
state election in 1904 which showed
that the conditions were very en-.
couraging for the republicans. This
was in Oregon on June 9Th, when tht
republicans carried their candidates
for state offices and for congress by
nearly double the longest lead the,
ever had before in that state. Thi,
was just before the national conven
tons were held, however. Vernon
and Maine, as the only states Which
will vote between the time of the draw
ing of the national lines and the gen
eral roundup of the states in Novem
Der, will be the object OF very deep con
Germ to republicans and democrat:
alike throughout the country.

CYCLONES AND TORNADOES,

The ordinary observer alludes to a
violent wind storm, with a twisting
motion, as cyclone. Newspapers
generally, in speaking of such storms
as that at New Richmond few years
ago, allude to them as cyclones. But
the meteorologists tell us that a
cyclone is an entirely different thing,
and Mark W. Harrington, former chief
of the weather bureau, in a little book
on elementary meteorology, explains
the difference between the cyclone and
the tornado. He says:
'"rhe most remarkable discovery in
the modern study of the weather is the
cyclone. BY this word is meant, not
necessarily furious, destructive
storm but only circular mass of air
fiat, thin vortex, shaped like wafer
and having a system of internal mo-
lions of it's own. These motions may
be so intense as to be very destructive
but nine times in ten the cyclone is a
very gentle creature-in some cases
SO gentle that, though it passes over
our heads, it requires close observa-
ton and delicate instruments to de-
tect it. 1t is not once in a hundred
times that cyclone does any damage
to man, even when we count an oc-
casional stroke of lightning The
word cyclone, however, is so frequent
ly misunderstood that meterorologists
generally use others except when they
write for their fellow students of the
weather. They often call these mass
es OF air general storms, because they
are great disturbances of the atmos-
phere and therefore storms in proper
sense of the word, though not always
in the popular sense"
Of the tornado Mr.. Harrington says:
"The tornado is an intense whirl of
small dimensions. The central des-
tructive part is only a few rods wide
and the entire system of winds is only
a mile or two across. It is a creature
of few hours only and not of days
or weeks like the cyclone. 1t is gen,
orally sort of attendant of the
cyclone. being developed on it's out,
skirts. When the disturb
ance is intense tornado may be form
ed and this is most likely to occur in
the warmer part of the day, when the
sun also aids. To the onlooker there
appears great agitation in the clouds
especially to the west Then a whirl
ing motion is visible and soon a great
funnelshaped extension is let down to-
ward the earth. If the fun.
mel continues to extend downward, as
is usually the case, it passes along,
swinging from side to side and max.
ing occasional leaps from the gound

Sheridan arrived in port at $50 yes
terday morning and sailed for san
Francisco at $40 last night. She was
expected Friday but was delayed a day
at Nagasaki in coaIing. The voyage
was uneventful and nothing but pleas
ant weather was encountered.
The second steward of the transport
came in the brig as a prisoner. He is
accused of selling berths to outsiders
and is being held for investigation at
San Francisco. It is alleged that stew
ards have been making a regular bust
ness of selling passages for tips and the
whole matter is likely to be given an
airing.

tire from the bench this fall. He is
accompanied by his family.
