RUSSIAN SAILORS SHOT.
Thirty of Them Tried to Desert From
Port Arthur.

London. March Only Russian re-
ports on the bombardment of Vladivo-
stOk have yet been received. and these
give no indications as to whether the
Russian squadron is still there. Ac-
cOrding &c a report from Toxic, the
squadron was seen off Gensan. Korea,
last Thursday. but on this POINT there
is no reliable information. Specula-
tion, however. mostly inclines to the
belief that the Russian squadron is not
in port at Vladivostok. as neither the
official nor the other reports of the
bombardment mention Russian battle
ships.
Port Arthur dispatches OF Saturday
and Sunday say that everything is
quiet there and ON the LiaOtung PENN
sula. The Japanese cruiser squadron
was seen accommodating off Port Ar
thur Friday night during a heavy

FRANCE OWNS CONCESSIONS.
But Japan Can Build SEOUL Win
Railroad.

Paris, March 6.-It is not expected
that Japan's intention to build the
SeOul-Wiju railroad will cause any
serious clash with the owners of the
early French concessions. The original
concession was granted to a French
company in 1896. Later the concession
was modified so that the road was to
be built by French engineers and with
French material. a considerable pOr-
ton Of the line has already been laid
under French auspices and il is under
stood that Foreign Minister Delcasse
has sought 10 protect French interests
along the road. as he protected the
rights Of the Panama Canal company
during the Panama uprising. But
while giving all due protection to
French interests, the officials say this
concession is not one which is likely TO
give rise 10 SERIOUS complicatiOns.

Japs Wish to Locate the Vladivostok
SQUADRON.

Paris, March THE St. Petersburg
correspondent OF the Echo de Paris
says concerning the bombardment Of
Nladivostok yesterday afternoon that
the opinion OF competent men is that
the japanese wished to find out whsth-
er or not the Russian squadron was in
the port of Vladivostok, in the belief
that should it prove to be absent it
would be necessary for the vessels to
return and defend the place. The cor
respondent adds:
These tactics are useless, as the gen.
eral staff here knows Reitzensteins ex-
act destination and that he has sue
ceeded perfectly in carrying out the
plan confded to him, despite the con-
slant vigilance of the Japanese"

quarters at New Chuang. the with
drawal Of unnecessary rolling stock and
equipment from the New Chuang rail-
way terminus and the removal of silver
from the bank indicates an intended
evacuation of New Chuang. The bank
authorities have arranged to leave
French and German agents in charge
of their interests.
a large force of cavalry is expected
to return TO New Chuang before the

way and the sea, and of accommodating

Russian private letters disclose the
fact that in the recent Engagements be

TALES OF REFUGEES.
Refugees arriving here say that Port
Arthur has not been attacked since
Feb. 26, but that stores and ammuni-
ton are still arriving. Work on the
mud dock in which it is expected to re
pair the battleship Czarevitch has been
abandoned for the past three days. The
foreign engineers, being unable to raise
the Retvizan, have quit Port Arthur,
together with the other Anglo-SaXons
there, That considerable damage
within the Notifications has been
caused by the japanese fire from
Pigeon bay is corroborated, and the de-
lenses on that side are being strength
ened by barbed wire entanslements and
additional artillery.
Street traffic in Port Arthur, the
refugees say, is largely confined to the
ammunition carts. All the forts have
been provided with naval signal Offices
for the purpose of Identifying Russian
ships and preventing the forts from
firing on them when they arrive.

INTERESTING DEBATE IN THE
PRUsSIAN DIET.

Berlin, March Elm the course of 4
discussion in the Prussian diet which
followed the Introduction OF a resolu-
ton asking for a reduction in railroad
tariffs, the comparative cheapness OF
transportation in Germany and the
United States was debated by Herr
Macco and Minister Of Finance Won
Rheinbaben.
Herr Macco is a Rhenish manufGc-
turer who in 1903 visited the United
States to study matters pertaining -
transportation and industry. He sal I
Germany in many ways, and, no MAJ
ter what might be thought of Amer
lean tariffs, it was fact that trans
pOrtation in the United States WAS
cheaper than in Prussia.
Give us cheap transportation, Mr..
Finance Minister" said Herr MaccO.
and we Will guarantee cheap produc-
ton
Menace to Industry.
In reply Herr Won Rheinbaben al
luded to q remark made by Herr Mac
co and said he also was DESTROYS OF
maintaining good relations with that
rising country" He saw one great
drawback in American economic life
he continued, namely. the operation of
labor unions, which, he said, exercised
terrorism of the most dangerous
character. Their power must be
checked betimes.
A comparison of railroad tariffs was
hardly possible. insomuch az many
American railroads own their own coal
mines and other industrial enterprises
Where American railroads are without
competition their tariffs are much
higher than in Prussia, and, moreover,
rates in the United States show ten
dency to rise steadily. It must be tax
en- into consideration, the minister %
finance continued. that the United
States has much greater distances to
cover and larger quantities of freight to
transport than has Prussia. American
railroads cost $4,000 a mile to build,
while, owing to the greater cost of land
in Prussia mile Of road costs $4,000.
Cheaper Rates Over Here.
How were the present cheap tariffs
in the United States reached? asked
the finance minister. Through tariff
wars, he answered, the recklessness OF
which Prussia has no conception Of. IL
is better to have steady tariffs than to
be exposed TO the whims of railroad
managers. Fifty-four per cent of me
American railroads do not pay a penny
in dividends, and the average dividend
OF all the rOauS Is Tess ltan per cent
Herr Won Rheinbaben admitted that
American tariffs were cheaper. but he
pointed out that the passenger rates
in the United States We're double those
in Prussia. Nevertheless. he said,
'if I could choose, 1 would take the
American principle of cheap freights
and more expensive passenger rates
In conclusion the minister of finance
asked Herr MaccO to put through a
law raising passenger rates, saying:
IF you viii do this 1 viii devote the
surplus derived therefrom TO the re-
duction Of freight tariffs
