st. Petersburg. Feb. 1S.-Captain
Stepanoff, who was blown up with the
torpedo gunboat Ieniesei and who
himself invented the system of laying
submarine mines which is considered
responsible for the catastrophe, had
caused the Ieliesei to be fitted with
his device for rapid laying of mines,
whereby a trolley line extended be-
yond the vessels stern, along which
the mines slid out Inc dropped into
their appointed places. This plan did
away with the cumbersome work of
laying the mines from small boats.
The accident was due to the excessive
strain on the Yeniesei's anchor cables
while the mines were suspended pend
ing the immersion. The two cables
snapped and one mine collided with
another.
The loss of the Russian American
built cruiser Nariag is a particularly
severe one, from the fact that she had
aboard no less than 400 Whitehead tor
pedoes; that is to say, two-thirds of
the entire store of Russia in eastern
waters, which may in part account for
the terrible crash with which she
blew up.

to Protect the Rights and Prop

Washington, D.. c., Feb. 1S.-The
rebels in San Domingo have committed
another breach of international law,
which, added to those preceding, are
making up a formidable case that may
justify the United States government
in intervening to restore order and
protect the property in the distracted
island. Minister Powell has reported
to the state department that he has
received belated advices from Jean
Villain. the vice consul agent at Sa-
mana, dated February ., to this effect:
insurgents entered our consulate at
SANTANA with armed force and took
the refugees out
The state department promptly COM
municared this information to the navy
department, with a request that proper
action be taken by the naval authori-
ties to protect the United States con
sulate.
This vas promptly transmitted to
Admiral Wise and it is the belief he
will not only protect the consulate, but
will demand the punishment of the
perpetrators of the outrage, and if the
provisional government is not able tC
do this he will employ the United
States naval force to chastise the in

RUSSIA AND JAPAN.

John Bull and a German
AND a Yankee dressed in style,
With Pat Maloy. a real Mccoy.
A son of Erin's Isle;
They were all in earnest and sincere
AS the future they did scan.
They commenced to talk about the war
With Russia and Japan.
Now, John Bull was the first to speak,
For he's never in the rear:
I'm tell you wat it is, lads,
We must cage the Russian bear,
So | 'ope you'll all be ready
And 'elp me all you can.
If | get mixed up in the war
With Russia and Japan"
Now, the German was the next to
speak.
AS he stood with glass in hand:
Long live the Emperor William
And the German fatherland,
For the Germans and the Dutch
Are ready, every man,
To help the kaiser in the war
With Russia and Japan"
Then Uncle San stood up to speak,
And he looked most dignified:
I'm tell what it is. boys,
| shall favor neither side;
But whichever nation does butt in.
This will be my plan
For Uncle San to hold his own
With Russia and Japan"
"Bedad," says Pat, II think you are al
Afraid of the Russian bear,
But wherever the beast may put hi
foot,
The divil a one | care;
But If | take the musket,
In spite of clique or clan,
I'll make the skin and hair fly
With Russia and Japan"

A LITTLE PECULIAR.
Japanese Preparing for Land Cam
paisn in Spring Supported by
Army of Quarter Of a Million Men
VALUABLE Charts and Maps Lost
With Torpedo Boat Yeniesei.

Berlin. Feb. 1S.-The admiralty here
has received confirmation OF the re.
ports that japanese landing operations
OF a vast scale are taking place on
both of korea's northern coasts, and it
is assured by the German authorities
that Japan will be ready by early
spring for a forward land movement,
supported by properly equipped bases.
Possibly $50 900 men, according to the
estimates made by the German ad-
miralty. will be in the field before a
collision takes place with the Russians
in force.
Expert naval opinion in Berlin JUS
titled The Japanese in landing before
the Russian fleet is destroyed as to
wait until that is accomplished might
mean a delay in the land operations
for months, consequent upon the
strengthening of Russia's forces. The
expectation expressed by a technical
newspaper which reviews the situation
is that Japan probably will, in the be-
ginning, have considerable land sue
c2sses through hard fighting. What
may happen after the early period of
the land operations, no technical per-
son ventures to predict in writing,
though it is doubted if the Siberian
railway will be at all adequate to re-
enforce and supply the Russian army.

General Chaffee showed how the

The new field gun that has beer

field gun of 1861. 1t fires a shot weigh
ing fifteen pounds, with muzzle veloc'
