WAS A PANIC.
There Was Not Single Instance to
Justify II.

There Was Not a Single Instance TO
Justify It.
London. Nov. Negotiations be-
tween Great Britain and Russia look
ing to a settlement of the North sea
affairs are progressing favorably and
there is not the slightest danger of
any friction arising between the two
governments. The constitution of the
international commission under The
Eugue convention is on the verge Of
settlement.
In spite Of these pacific conditions
Great Britain Tuesday experienced a
war panic that only can be compared
to the panic created on Sunday, Oct.
p3. when the new of the sinking OF the
trawlers in the North sea was received.
Not for years have so many alarmist
reports and flaming extras flooded
London. The most extraordinary fea-
ture of this scare, which was serious
while 1t lasted, Is that there was not
one single circumstance to Justify 1t.
The excitement started early in the
rounced the departure of the Russian
Baltic squadron from Vigo. The public
were not in possession of the Informal
ton cabed by the Associated Press to
the United States that only the officers
concerned in the firing on the British
trawlers would be detached, and jump
ed at the conclusion that Russia had
broken faith by not OBTAINING the yes
sells involved in tne affair. On top of
this came the wild report of tremen-
dous activity at Gibraltar. Hour by
hour the news from Gibraltar became
more serious, until at last the climax
was reached with the announcement
that the British fleet had cleared for
| action.
This furore would be ludicrous except
for the striking instance it has afforded
II the willingness of the British public
to believe that almost any development
is possible after the North sea affair
and for the enthusiasm produced by
Gibraltar's warlike news. The foreign
office is intensely irritated at the con
struction placed upon what they de-
clare must have been mere fleet AMI
garrison exercises. The Associated
Press is authorized to state that no
orders have been given the huge fleet
now concentrated at Gibraltar TO
n,ake any preparations In connection
with the departure of Admiral Ro-
iestyvenskys squadron.

HIS MEN HAVE DONE

DRINKS HAVE THE EA D

For a city the size of Richmond
the arrests during the past year have
been very small. All told COL persons
up to last evening had found their
wav behind the bars of the local po-
lice station. The Years ends today and
the usual number of Saturday night
DRINKS probably will swell the total
by several. In 1903 the police ar
rested SIG people, this was 26 less
than were arrested this year. Rich
mond is very lucky in having such a
few number of law breaking citizens
The police department is efficient and
the people are all very law abiding
and the laws and city ordinances are
obeyed very nearly to the letter. One
thing that keeps the number of ar
rests to such low number is the
fact that when person is arrested
for 'any crime he is usually given
the extreme penalty for that crime as
described by law. This has a ten
dency to keep people from breaking
the laws Wherever the courts are
in any way lenient there is always
a large number of crimes committed.
OF course, the largest number of ar
rests were for INVESTIGATION, about
-fifths of these arrested being
made on that charge More arrests
have been made during the past year
on the charge of larceny than have
ever been made before. Forty-eight
of those arrested have been
for crimes punishable by a sentence
in the penitentiary. Not a single ar
rest for murder was made during the
year. The police department is to be
complimented on the way in which
laws have been obeyed and the condi-
ton Of orderliness which prevails
throughout the entire city.
The arrests by months were as fol-
lows:

CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS
Will Likely be Produced the Latter
Part Of February-Committee
) Appointed.

AT some time during the present
winter the Richmond Lodge of Elks
will in all probability give comic
opera. 1t is the custom of the lodge
to give some sort of an entertainment
each winter, the proceeds of which
are devoted to charity. While no
definite plans have been made for the
entertainment this year, it is under
stood that the majority Of the MEN,
bers of the lodge favor an opera in
preference to the time-worn min
strel show. An entertainment COM
mittee has been appointed by the
lodge to make definite plans for an
entertainment of some sort and it is
believed that this committee will re-
port next Thursday night on an
opera. Pinafore has a large number
of friends among the Elks and it
would not surprise very many if this
opera was decided upon. Pinafore
presents large field for amateur
people as it is full of bright and
sparkling lines and tuneful music.
The Indianapolis lodge of Elks gave
the opera about five years ago in
sort of a burlesque and it made an
immense hit The Richmond lodge
probably will follow along the lines
of the Indianapolis lodge. If the
opera is given it will be produced
some time in the latter part of Febru-
airy or the first of March. Three per-
formanees probably will be given at
the Gennett thteater and the produc-
ton will be staged in the elaborate
manner which characterizes all Elk
productions and entertainments.
