STATUE OF FREDERICK.
It is Planned to Put It in Company
With Three Other Warriors.

At the instance of the President Baron
Sternburg, the German ambassador has
had long conference with Secretary Taft
and Major General Gillespie. respecting the
location of the statue of Frederick the
Great, which Emperor William is to be-
stow upon the people of the United States
1t has already been arranged that the dedl-
cation of the statue should take place Oc-
tober 20 next, when the President and
Baron Sternburg are to deliver addresses.
So the purpose of this latest conference
was to determine the site of the statue and
its surroundings. 1t was decided that the
statue of Frederick should make one of
quartet of four Of the worlds greatest sol
diers. and the statue viii stand in line on
the beautiful terrace of the War College
with Alexander the Great, Caeser and Ma
poleon.
The German statue will differ from the
others in one important respect 1t will be
the only one of the four which is a pre-
sentation to u.s. The President has dec ded
that 1t is better that the United States gov
ernment should itself provide the other
statues at it's own expense. The arrange
ments made are highly satisfactory to the
German ambassad dor, who will acauaint his
emperor with them.

RUSSIAN NEWSPAPERS ATTACK.
Apparently Based Upon Misappre-
hension of the Facts.

ST. PETERSBURG, February q. The
Bourse Gazette today prints Washington
dispatch saying the United States has un-
dertaken to lay submarine cable from the
Philippine Islands to Japan to prevent the
latters isolation in case the Russians cut
the Shanghai cable, and uses the dispatch
as the subject of bitter attack upon the
government at Washington for this new
evidence of Its breach of neutrality" claim
ing that the contention of the United States
that the laying of the cable will be under
taken for 'the improvement of trade rela-
tions" does not clear Americas skirts, and
inquiring what the Americans would say
IL Germany had run a cable from Kiao-
Chou to Port Arthur or Vladivostok?'
NEW YORK, February 27.-It was An
nounced in the Associated Press dispatches
from Washington February "a that the
Commercial Cable Company had addressed
Inquiries to the government as to whether
permission could be secured to land on the
Island OF Guam a cable connecting with
Japan. This cable would connect at Guam
with the present Pacific commercial cable
to the United States. It was said that the
request was based on the apprehension that
the existing japanese cables, both of which
run to Shanghai. might be cut during the
present hostilities and Japan thus be iso-
lated from the world. In considering the
request the government was said to have
reached the conclusion that an assent would
not involve breach of neutrality taking
the ground that cable is a commercial ia.
strument like mail ship.
