Kansas gas attempt to pipe It
into Missouri, they set up a great
howl, and prepare to make an
organized resistance. declaring
that kansas gas should be for

assembled before Port Arthur and a
bombardment was begun with heavy
guns at long range.
This lasted until / o'clock In the
afternoon. The damage TO our vessels

with the commencement Of the
bombardment at dawn, the guns OF
the fortress replied to the enemy's
fire. The crews of all the ships en-
gagged gave proof Of remarkable cool

such a distance must be regarded as
ineffective, but the Japanese cruiser
Takasago is reported to have been
seen to suffer serious damage. Many
shells were fred at range OF seven

UNITED STATES FIRST.
Military Experts Believe That America
Will Lead in Far East.

Berlin. March 11.-Wllliam Grueno,
editor Of Die Grenzboten, OF Lelpsic,
In analyzing the play of international
interests in the far east, says the late
Field Marshal Won waldersee, after
his return from China, often talked
with his close friends on the certainty
that the United States would have a
leading role there. His solicitude for
the future interest Of Germany was
also connected with the United States
position in far eastern affairs.
Herr Grueno does not say where Won
waldersee's utterances leave off and
the editors begin, but the article con-
tinues:
THE United States attitude towards
Japan Is understandable because Of
her commercial relations with Japan
and in Manchuria, and by reason of
her aspiration to the hegemony OF the
Pacific. II the United States should
maintain her claims to predominance
in the Pacific. she must reckon with
Japan, either as friend or an enemy
For the moment the United States in
terests require friendly relation with
Japan, taking into consideration the
limited American navy and the British
Japanese alliance For the time this
allowance will check American hege-
mony on the Asiatlc side of the Pa
cific."
The editor regards an American
British Japanese alliance as possi-
bility.
