Reverend DOCTOR PALM0RE
ON FALL OF PORT ARTHUR"
Tells st. Paul's Congregation That
Dcba uchery of Offccrs Is Cause
of Russian Revcrses.

The Reverend Doctor W. B.. Palmore. in
his sermon on '"The Fall of Port Arthur"
last night In st. Pauls Methodist Church,
said, in part:
The Crimean War. in which hundreds
OF millions of dollars and q half million
soldiers went down., was fought over a
church key. The present contest in the
East, in which the largest Empire of Eu-
rope Is fighting one OF the smallest ma
ions of Asia, has a larger reason or
cause. Russia is moved by territorial greed.
while Japan is fighting for her own life
and the Individual integrity of China
which should have been maintained by
Western nations without war.
THE fundamental causes of Russia's
long series OF humiliations and continuous
defeats are the ~rottcnness of a beauro-
cratic Government, and liquor and lust In
the army. The rank and file of the Russian
Army would do good fighting IL they were
decently of1cered. Vodka, champagne,
wine and women are the bane and shame
of Russia's commanding officers. One year
ago she had a fine navy, but just now too
much of 1t is submarine!
Drunkenness is not SO much the curse
of the rank and file of her army and navy
from the fact that the common soldier Is
too poor to buy even the cheap and deadly
vodka. The ignorance of the common peo-
pie and soldiers of Russia forms a dark

N WANT VITO LADucA.
Italian Implicated In Kidnapping Hnd
 Barrel Murder Missing.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-Detectives and police made raid on the house of man passing as V. Longo at 360 Hudson avenue, Brooklyn, in search of Antonio Mannino, the little son of James Mannino, wealthy contractor of Amity street, Brooklyn, who was kidnapped five days ago and is held for $50, 900 ransom.
 Longo is believed by the police to be tn reality Vito Laduca, one of the men who were accused of the barrel mur der in Manhattan In April of last year, but who was dismissed for lack of evil dence.
 He was not captured in the raid. It was known to the police that Longo, or Laduca, as they call him, had left the city before they descended upon his dwelling. But the detectives hoped to find the kidnapped child there. In this they were disappointed. It is now believed that the missing man can give the police valuable information con- corning the child, who is supposed to be somewhere in the suburbs of the city
 All the letters and papers found in the house were seized by the detec- tives and taken to the Amity street police station for use in the further prosecution of the search for the miss ing boy and the capture of his kidnap- CTS. Among his effects a photograph was found which his wife said was picture taken of her husband when he was in the Italian navy. This will be used by the police for purposes of identification. They say that it proves. conclusively that the man styling him self Longo is really Vito Laduca, who had served five years in prison for crime in Italy before coming to this country

TEN DROWNED IN POTOMAC.
Naphtha Launch Capsized at Wash-
 ington Regatta.

NaphtIha Launch Capsixed at Wash
 ington Regatta.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 15. While bands played and gay throng in pleasure craft cheered on their fa- vorites in the annual regatta on the Potomac four young women and six men were drowned by the capsizing of the Recreation, small naphtha launch.
 There were fourteen persons in the launch, and only four were saved. They were men who swan to shore. After the boat had turned over 1t went down like rock, and the ten clinging to the hull sank with scarcely struggle into the swirling waters.
 All in the boat were. well known young folk, prominent in society circles in Washington and Georgetown. They were the guests of Drs. Stewart and Wagner, who owned the launch.
 The accident occurred just before 3 o'clock at point in the river where the water drawn out of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal to turn turbines in a roller mill flows into the river It rushes down from the canal with a head of nearly 150 feet and 90 yards out into the stream is clearly defined by the whirl and toss of the water, but river craft, even small rowboats, have never considered the stream par ticularly dangerous.
 1t was just at the end of the first race that the launch capsized The fourteen QccIIDantS were crowded of the rail to see the finish, and the edge was tipped almost to the water line. Just then the boat struck the current and tipped further over; water rush ed In, and in an instant its@occupants were struggling in the water
 The whole party went under, but were thrown far enough out so that they arose immediately and caught ; hold of the boat. To the few who had noticed the capsizing 1t seemed cer- tain boat could reach them, but moment later the launch, weighted down by it's machinery and canopy, sank from sight, and without an ap- parent struggle the unfortunate ones went down.
 Only those in the immediate vicinity knew of the terrible accident The two pared sculis lined up for the second race. The cheers grew louder, and the bands struck up lively airs.
 Tn the meantime several boats gath cred around, and search for the bodies began. The river was dragged, and all the bodies were recovered in a couple of hours.

HAS YIELDED
European Squadron Sails
 From Smyrna.
AMERICAN DEMANDS GRANTED
Positive Pledges Given That There Shall Be No Discrimination Against Our Schools In
 Turkey.

COTSTANTINOPLE, Aug, 15.--The Issues between Turkey and the United States have been arranged to the satis- faction of both governments. The terms of the settlement have not yet been given out.
 The fleet which was expected to ar rive at Smyrna on the morning of Thursday, the 11th, did not reach port until the 18th, On Thursday after noon, however, and therefore before the arrival of the fleet the sultan sent one of his private secretaries to see Mir. Leishman and submit the reply of his majesty, giving assurance that no discrimination shall be made between American schools and those of other nationalities and incidentally offering an indemnity in the amount claimed, 5000 pounds Turkish, to an American citizen, Mrs. Lane, as the price of property owned by her.
 The main object, which was to ob- tain from the sultan a positive pledge of the most favored nation treatment for our schools in Turkey, having thus been accomplished. the presence of the Aeetis no longer necessary, and orders have been given for its withdrawal. Mir. Leishman was accordingly in- structed to secure without delay such q formulation of his majesty's pledge as will secure for our educational es- tablishments perfect equality of rights with those which France and other na- tions enjoy under conditions not less favorable than those which France ob- tained by the agreement of Mytelene in 1901, which demand has been com piled with.
 The indemnity to be paid to Mrs. Lane closes, 1t is believed, the only pecuniary claim pending against the Turkish government
 The United States war vessels now at Smyrna under command of Rear Admiral Jewell are the Cleveland, the Olympia and the Baltimore. They will leave smyrna today for Gibraltar. The ships comprise what is known as the American European squadron and will continue their cruise in European wa ter for some time.

DISGRACE KILLED HIM.
Captain Curran of the Boer Army is a
 Suicide.


 New York, Aug 15-Brooding over undeserved disgrace due to charges Of treachery during the South African war, James Curran, silyersmith and Q veteran in the Boer army, has com mitted suicide in his Brooklyn lodg- ings
 Curran was a native of Ireland. When the war between Great Britain and the Boers broke out, he was at work in the Kimberley mines. He had saved small competence, and contributing this to the Boer cause, raised a company of scouts of which he became captain. This company was successful for time, but in a skirmish before Ladysmith, the whole company was wiped out, all of the members being either killed or cap- tured by the British.
 Captain Curran was made a prison CT, but within week he escaped and rejoined the Boer army. Then he was accused of having led his men into trap He was found guilty and sen tenced to be shot but escaped two days before the proposed execution.
 Making his way to Cape Town Curran took ship for America and se- cured employment.
 A few weeks ago Curran gave away his sword, remarking to friend that he could not bear the sight of it longer, as it continuously reminded him of undeserved dis grace.

SENT BACK FOR THE PURSE.
Decoy in Dry Goods Store Draws Out Strongest Trait of Hu-
 man Nature.

Picking up wornout, empty pocket book, salesman in one of the large dry goods stores the other day thought he would have little fun with it, relates the Chicago Tribune. He therefore placed it oh the counter, half concealed by the goods lying on it. Presently a shopper entered. Her eyes lighted on the wallet as by instinct, and while pric- Ing half score of articles she endeav- ored to cover it, quite artlessly, of course, now with her handkerchief, then with her satchel, and again with her um- brella. The salesman, without appear ing to notice her actions, each time re- moved the pocketbook out of danger and into light. Finally, she adopted new tactics, and picked it up with the re- mark:
 Somebody's left pocketbook."
 "Yes?" replied the clerk, interroga- lively. Thank you" And he took the leather and disappeared with it for a moment. Upon his return the woman asked, with slight show of interest:
 "Was there much in it?"
 "Only three dollars, replied the sales man, carelessly, with the ease of one ease of one who has been used to lying all his life.
 And who will get it if it isn't called for?" asked the shopper.
 "The firm,'' is the epigrammatical re- sponse.
 The woman went out. Tn ten or 15 minutes boy came in and asked:
 Was pocketbook with three dollars found here this morning?"
 'eYes,' replied the salesman, "but 1t has been called for"
 "Oh," said the boy, and retired.
 And the salesman smiled audiblY.
