Washington, d. Chow that the
presidential campaign of 1904 has
practically begun, politicians are de-
voting a good deal of time to a study
of the conditions prevailing in the new
electoral college under the apportion-
ment of the census of 1900.
The new census not being COM
plete in 1900, of course the campaign
or the election of that year was not
affected 1t is effective now for the
first time in a presidential contest.
The increases noted in the various
states are the cause of interesting
speculation.
The electoral college of 1904 win
consist of 476 votes. The electoral
college of 1900 consisted of 447 votes,
hence the increase in the new college
is 20, sufficient number to deeply in

VIOLATING RULES Of WAR
JAPANESE WAR OFFICE MAKES
SERIOUS CHARGES.
Russians Fired Persistently on Field
Hospital Where Red Cross Flag
Was Flying-Fired on Wounded
Russian Boat Stops British Steamer
Fighting News is Scarce.

Toxic, July 19.-The Japanese war
Office has made public a statement
charging the Russians with violation
of recognized rules of warfare. The
Statement alleges that on two occas-
ions the white flag has been violated,
that once a Russian column fired per-
sistently on a field hospital where the
Red Cross flag was flying conspicu-
ously, thus compelling the Japanese
to remove the hospital amidst great
danger
Twice, it is alleged, the Russians
fired on the men of the Japanese hos
pital corps, although their badges
could readily be distinguished. On
three occasions Japanese wounded are
said to have been stabbed, slashed
and mutilated. and on one occasion
the Russians are declared to have
Stolen cattle and horses from non
combatants and to have violated wo-
men.
1t is also claimed that numerous
instances can be cited where the Rus
slams have wantonly nred on the Jap
anese wounded and that they have re-
fused to permit parties who were sue
coring the wounded of both sides to
go unmolested.
These charges are made by General
Oku and it is stated that further
charges will be made, growing out of
the experience of General Kuroki's
army.
In explaining these charges the
Japanese general staff says they had
no desire to take such action, but in
view of Russias charges, made
through the French papers, there was
nothing else left for them to do.
} Fire on British Steamer.
A dispatch from Alden to the Lon
don Daily Mail says that the captain
of the British steamer Waipara re-
ports that the Russian volunteer
= steamer st. Petersburg signaled him
to stop by firing across the bows of
his vessel on July Is while Is miles
off Jebel Sugar, in the Red Sea.
The Russians examined the papers
: of the Waipara and declared they
would hold the ship as a prize. The
captain protested, and was taken on
board the st. Petersburg, where he
gave the Russian officers a guarantee
that there were neither arms nor am
munition on board the Wapiara de-
stined for Japan. The vessel was de-
, tanned for four hours and was then
) allowed to proceed.
The captain confirms the report that
the Peninsula & Oriental company s
: steamer Malaica was seized in the
Red sea July 16 by the st. Petersburg

and munitions of war for the Japan
