Women's Losses by Fire.

Business women Of Rochester's
burned district suffered losses, as well
as the men, for in the handsome Gran
lite building were a number of dress
makers, music teachers, manicurists,
pattern makers and art needle work
ers. The dressmakers are the heaviest
losers, and their patrons also have sus-
tanned losses in the orders they had
placed with them. Many of the Dress
makers, like the great firms that were
prey to the flames, had in their spring
stocks, which included beautiful dress
materials, garnitures and laces.
Many feel far more keenly the losses
Of their wealthy patrons than do these
women themselves. Only few days
before the fire customer intrusted
to the care of one Of the dressmakers
a costly dress pattern Of Chantilly lace,
bought recently in Brussels, and a
quantity of narrow trimming laces re-
ceived from New York at $40 a yard.
There are also prospective Easter
brides who have lost their trousseaus.
Among the women who by great perse-
verance and strict economy had been
able to start themselves fairly well in
business in some Of the buildings which
were burned was one who had secured
plating machine at cost Of 1900
and was successful In filling orders
from firms Only few payments had
been made on the machine when the
flames swept from her her me ans OF q
livelihood. 1t is said that none Of the
women carried insurance

a DIPLOMATIC NIGHTMARE.


European chancelieries regard Mr. Hay
as "a nightmare and an unknown
quantity in diplomacy
The Diplomat sat in his folding bed,
With nervous, distracted stare,
And he held his breath as one scared to
death,
For he'd gazed on nightly mare:
And at times he groaned and at times
he moaned
In q semi distracted way;
But all that he said as he trembled IN
Was Hay" and again. Hay, Hay!"
1T thought stood on battlefield,
A-watching a beautiful scrap,
Where, there in his lair, the Russian Bear
Was being carved by the Jap,
And the Chinese Dragon he wiggled and
Kissed,
And the Lion he roared away,
When g. terrible word suddenly heard,
And the thing that it said was Hay.
..I can fathom the Jap Cor think CAM,
! savvy the Russian Bear,
I'm wise on the Dragon, when ne nasn
a jag on,
And ditto the Lion there;
But this strange new force from over
seas,
He acts In the funniest way
It's no wonder scream in the midst Oh
my dream
At the mystical name of Hay"

In 1849 the South America, of Provi-
dence, fitted at total cost of $4,000 for
ship and outfit, took $4,000 worth Of
bone and oil, thus paying for her owners
a dividend Of 125 per cent.
In the same year the Russell of New
Bedford, arrived there with $92, 900 worth
Of OIL
One of the wonderful records of those
-rich-quick whaling days is that of
the Envoy Of New Bedford. In 1874 she
was condemned and sold to William c..
Brownell to be broken up. He concluded
to fit her for one more voyage, and Capt.
w. T. Walker took her out
Nobody would insure her. At the first
port she touched her captain found 1000
barrels of whale oil saved from a wreck
ed whaler, which he bought at nominal
price and shipped from Manila to Lon
don.
Then he cruised in the Pacific ocean,
and in ffty-fve days took $500 barrels Of
whale oil and 10000 pounds Of bone. He
put into San Francisco, where he sold a
part Of his cargo and shipped the rest
home Then he sold the ship for $4,000.
: Altogether the voyage brought $138,450
and the total cost of purchasing and fit
ting out the Envoy was only $4,000.
Big as the profits were when ship
made lucky voyage, losses were still
more heavy when they occurred, for the
owners had absolutely no control over
their ships once they had left port. They
could not even feel sure that in case Of

MERCY is ASKED
FOR NON-COMBATANTS
United States Appeals to Russians on
Behalf of Unfortunate Japs.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 19.-
Russia will be asked by the United
States to treat kindly the Japanese
hon combatants who have been left in
Siberia and to enable them to make
their way back to Japan. Kogori TAX
Rhira, the Japanese minister, called at
the state department today and In
formed the officials that he had re-
ceived reports that between forty and
fifty Japanese non combatants were In
q suffering condition in several Sibe-
rian towns. The minister requested the
Washington government to use its
good offices to assist the suffering Jap
Rnese to reach Berlin, where the Japa-
nese minister will take them in charge.
A cablegram has been sent to Mr.. Nc
Cormick, the American ambassador at
st. Petersburg, inviting him to call the
attention of the imperial government
to the matter Mr.. Takahira says:
1.-TWO Japanese subjects, who arrived
at Berlin a few days ago from the in
terror of Siberia as delegates from a
large number of Japanese still living
there, reported to the Japanese minis
ter that they were boycotted; and not
only had they found 1t impossible to
earn any living, but were in constant
danger of life, and consequently were
suffering great privation. In some
towns, it was said, they were ordered
by the police authorities to leave the
place at a moments notice without
time to take their effects with them.
In my opinion the Russians have
acted in an untoward manner with the
non combatants and prisoners of our
people. The Vladivostok squadron
fired upon Japanese merchantmen and
sunk one. of them. A Japanese major
and five soldiers who were taken pris-
oners in Korea were paraded through
the streets Of Mukden. Japanese resi-
dents in Manchuria, many of whom
were women, were subjected to indig-
mites while on their way to a seaport
to find q steamer to take them to Jap
an. This report from Berlin tells Of the
cruel treatment of innocent people by
the police authorities of Siberia.
Just think how Russians are treated
IN Japan. You never hear any COM
plant by them against the Japanese
people and authorities. On the con-
&rary, it was reported from Chemulpo
that when the bodies of two Russian

misfortune the limit of their loss would
be the sum that they had invested in the
ship and her equipment, for the captain Of
whaleship had unlimited and complete
authority to draw on them for any sum
he might need, sell his cargo anywhere
at whatever terms his judgment might
dictate, and even to have the ship con-
demned and sold to be broken up if he
thought it proper.
Once the captain of a whaler left the
headlands he was a king He went With
ersoever he listed and stopped wherever
he thought "suitin and fittin'."

HaIes, Chickens come Home.

TOKYO, March 19.-The British
minister refuses to indorse the appli-
cation Of Hales, the correspondent Of
the London News, to accompany the
Japanese army. giving as his reason
that Hales' reports from the Transvaal
during the Boer war were slanderous
Of the British army. The Japanese
government requires that all CORE

of the resident minister of the coun-
tries they represent. Hales will there
fore be excluded from all connection
