CLADO TALKS OF JAPANESE.
Star Witness in Dosger Bank Case
Predicts Sensational Disclosures.

PARIS, Dec. 29.-Inasmuch as the
Baltic fleet is almost within japanese
waters" says Captain Clado of the
Russian navy, "and Russia is willing to
pay indemnity to those who suffered
through the firing on British fishermen
in the North sea, it is difficult to see
the Importance of the decision of the
international commission which organ
lied here Thursday"
Captain Clado was detached by Ad-
miral Rojestvensky at vigo, Spain, to
carry the admiral's detailed report to
his North sea adventure to the czar
and to represent the commander-in-
chief before the Paris commission.
While In st. Petersburg Captain
Clado went to prison for q fortnight
Tor printing articles in the newspa-
pers savagely attacking the Russian
high admiral Grand Duke Alexis, an
uncle Of the cxar. and others Of the
Russian navy department because they
would not order the Black sea neet to

I think the startling duplicity OF

the Japanese will be revealed at the
inquiry" the captain continued, "and
that Russia's position in the matter
will be strengthened.
I'VE regard the sending of third
fleet to the far east as indispensable
because by so doing we can rapidly
wear down and master the Japanese
navy.
Even if Rojestvensky's fleet should
be destroyed, it would leave the Japs
ships in such a worn condition that
they would fall an easy prey to the
third Russian fleet, thus enabling us
to rule the eastern seas, retake Port
Arthur if it falls, cut off Japan's base
in Korea and bring about an ultimate
Russian victory-which 1 believe to be
certain to come.
"The czars failure to proclaim a
constitutional government for Russia
caused the greatest disappointment
throughout Russia. But a constitu-
tion is bound to come, because Emper-
Or Nicholas wants the people to have
it,"

SEES THEM CUT HIS FLESH.
Charles Weiie Watches Surgeons Ope-
rate On Him.

SANTA BARBARA, Cal, Dec. 20
While the knives of expert surgeons
slowly cut a full pound of flesh from a
vital part of his body, Charles Weile
of this city, former United States con-
sui, watched their work. The opera
ton was performed in a Los Angeles
hospital and Weile returned to his
home here to spend the happiest
Christmas Of his life.
For a year Weile, a man of so, faced
almost certain death. Finally nothing
remained but an operation almost al
ways followed by fatal results. The
operation is called prostatotomy.
Knowing it's dangerous character.
Weile preferred to die in full posses
sion of his faculties and refused to
take ether. Drugs to allay pain were
administered, and while the surgeons
removed the flesh bit by bit, Weile
watched every movement. AS the ef-
feet of the anodyne wore of the pain
of the operation was felt IN full force,
but never for moment did weiIe lose
his control. There was = total alb
sence Of shock IN this case and 70 this
fact the surgeons say is due the re-
markable recovery Of their patient.

THE besieging army at 10 O'Clock
Wednesday morning blew up the par

and then occupied the position by as
sault. They constructed defensive
works under the cover of heavy guns
and field guns despite the fire Of the
enemy. After placing heavy guns the
army proceeded to the Gorge Of the
Fork whence the enemy was event
ually dislodged after a stout resist
ance. Whole fort fell into our hands

come of the placing Of a pole near
