POSTOFPICES TO
 TAKE UP CRUSADE
BAN WILL BE PLACED ON oBJEc- TloNA7LE ADVERTISEMENTS AND STORIES IN NEWSPAPERS AND PERIopIcALsam1

Washington, February 2O.-The post office department has begun a crusade against the printing of objectional ad- vertisements and stories in newspapers and periodicals throughout the country The action is based on section 3s93 of the Revised Statutes which imposed a fine of not exceeding s5ooO, or Imprisonment for not over fifty years. or both for any person depositing in the mails or aiding in circulating through the mails of any obscene print, pamphlet, etc.
 It is proposed to amend this law to include vulgar advertisements and other printed matter. Under the new policy a. number of papers containing questiona- ble matter have been thrown out of the mails under telegraphic orders to the postmasters, and campaign will be waged against objectionable medical ad- vertisements which are widely published.

HOW PRESIDENT IS
 TO SPEND SUMMER
WILL REMAIN AT OYSTER BAY MUCH OF THE TIME AND WILL VISIT THE ST. LOUIS WORLDS FAIR.

Washington, February 20-After seeing his family established at Oyster Bay for the summer, it is understood that the President will immediately return to Washington to receive the formal notifi- cation of his nomination. Soon thereafter the President will return to Oyster Bay to remain there the latter half of July and the whole of August.
 It is possible that he may prolong his sojourn at his summer home until the middle of September, but not longer than that. He will return to Washington then and remain here during the campaign.
 Many reasons have induced the fresi- dent not to make arrangements to pass the entire summer in Oyster Bay. Chief among them is the practical necessity that he should be in close touch with the people of the country, particularly the leaders of the republican party This would be scarcely possible should he re- main at Oyster Bay during the campaign.
 Some time in the summer or autumn the President will visit the Louisiana Purchase exposition But no time has been fixed for that visit.

DODGE IS STILL
 BEFORE THE RUBLIC
GOV. LANHAM OF TEXAS GRANTS REQUEST OF THE GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK FOR SECOND REouI. SETON.

Austin. Texas. February Ex-Governor Lanham this afternoon granted ths5 re- quest of the governor of New York for second requisition for Charles F. Dodge. wanted there on the charge of per- jury. The governor defends his action on the ground as he made no mistake in granting the original requisition, that he can do no harm by granting a second requisltion against the same person, and for the same offense.
 He made thls decision this evening after hearing lengthy arguments from attor- neys on both sides This decision was a surprise to the defendants lawyers, who announce that an appeal will promptly be taken as soon as possible, and a similar line of habeas corpus procedure will be inaugurated, as in the first case
 Dodge will remain in the state in the meantime as kind of agreement was reached by the lawyers on both sides of the case today.
 Houston. Tex, February 20.--In connec- ton with the Dodge case. District Judge Kittrell this evening issued a bench war rant for three New York detectives who are here after Dodge charging them with contempt of his court in molesting the prisoner since the injunction was issued prohibiting it. Their cases have been set for Monday morning.
 The detectives are J. J. Herlipy, J. D. Blocker and Randolph, the latter just ar rived

Caused No Surprise.

THe resignation of Perry S. Heath from the secretaryship of the republican na- tionai committee caused no surprise here. The late Senator Hanna and MT. Heath were strong friends and 1t was only through Senator Hanna that MT. Heath consented to remain on the committee.
 The President clearly indicated during the postal scandals that he did not desire MT. Heath to remain on the committee but Senator Hanna insisted that Mir. Heath should remain. Mir. Hanna had no intention of managing Roose- velts campaign for the Presidency so Mir. Hesths resignation would have been ten- dered at the next meeting of the national committee anyway

Dick to Succeed Hanna.

The announcement from Cleveland that Governor Herrick of Ohio would not be candidate for the United States senate 10 succeed the late Senator Hanna would seem to indicate that Representative Dick of Ohio now has the best chance for the senatorship. It is believed here that Herrick's announcement Is virtually in line with a promise he Is reported to have made to Senator Hanna to serve out his term as governor.
 When Herrick was nominated for the goyernorship by the Hanna faction compromise was made with the Foraker people by which Harding the present lieutenant governor, was nominated.
 The election of Herrick would put Harding in the governors chair and vir- tually place Foraker In control of the republican organization. Hanna is said to have told Herrick when he was first nominated that he must serve out his term and the understanding has been that the governor would do so.
 Several weeks ago Herrick was in Wash ington flirting with the republican vice presidential nomination. He Is said to have been thought of favorably in tho Porstmaster General Payne. and natur- ally by Senator Foraker. At any rate Hanna heard of 1t and there was no mention of Herrick as the Roosevelt run ming mate. Dick through sentimental reasons Is the candidate of the old Han ra faction at the start and the indica- tions would strongly favor his election to the senate

in the loss of the Russian warships Variag and Korietz, and the fact that the Vicksburg did not take on board any of the surviving Russian sailors has caused q good deal of unfavorable public com nent here.
 The foreign office, however, shows no disposition to criticize the commander of the Vicksburg, and advanced the sugges- tion that he might have been restrained by the belief that such action might con- stitute breach of neutrality.
 A Russian correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press at Port Arthur reports that the steamer Shika, Captain Kosturin. left Vladivostock February 3 and arrived at Tru Srima Ca Japanese island north- west of NagasakD February 6. There, the steamer was seized and without ex- planation taken to Nagasaki bay
 The Japanese passengers were landed but Captain Kosturin successfully op- posed the landing of the Chinese passen- gers. who were bound for Che Foo. He ayers that the Japanese sailors placed on board showed lack of discipline and lounged and smoked in the ladies cabin until he ordered them on deck.

EUROPEAN POWERS ARE MAKING ACTIVE MILITARY
 PREPARATIONS AND WAR MAY INVOLVE MANY NATIONS
AMERICANS PROUD OF
 JAPANESE SYMPATHIES

Russian alliance re-established the poht- ical balance of Europe.
 One may bow to the cultured advance of Japanese, but it brings to western nations the ida of endless wars. The far east is now an arena of European competition. What China will do in week or in months when her war posi- tion is more clearly defined, and her neutrality guaranteed by the powers on the American receipt, Is one of those fictions which Europe is used to paying for with a most expensive armed pow CT.
 Russian victories will protect the west from the horrors America Is trying to keep off by diplomacy. For Russia this heavy cross Is it's glory.
 "The report that Count Cassini. Rus sian ambassador to Washington, is to be recalled, is unwarranted His services are highly esteemed and at the foreign office 1t was said his recall was not con templated.

 But the actual situation confers upon Us certain rights. Manchuria being the the atre of war occupied by us and recog- nized by the United States and other powers as outside of the Chinese zone of neutrality, 1t is for our military authori- ties to judge the question of receiving these consuls, even If China grants them exequateurs. do not know the decision of Viceroy Alexieff. but the military author ities are free to take any action they wish.'

PLAN RETURN VISIT.
Mexican Health Officers to Come to
 United States.

Mexico City, February 20.-It is probable that arrangements will be made by the superior board of health whereby American sanitary inspectors will be permitted to visit cities and towns here in return for a similar privilege in the United States.
 The board of health has organized an expeditionary medical corps which is now at Hampico engaged in tracing the path in past years the yellow fever has taken in spreading from that port to interior towns and cities. At all points visited by the corps Its mem bers will conduct investigations and make observations.
 Dr. Licaeg, chairman of the superior board of health, says that during the coming summer yellow fever will not appear anywhere as an epidemic.
