RUSSIANS SINK OWN SHIP
DESTROYER RUNS BLOCKADE
WITH DISPATCHES.
Is Afterwards Blown Up to Avoid
Falling Into Hands Of the
Enemy.

Chez, Foo, Nov. 16.-The Russians
have blown up the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Rastorepni The commander
said:
Il left Port Arthur at midnight in a
binding snowstorm. The boat was
navigated through all the dangerous
floating mines without a mishap. Once
reaching the open sea, we saw Jap
anese cruiser and some torpedo boats
in the distance, but we were steaming
rapidly through the storm with lights
extinguished and passed them unno-
ticed. We reached Chez Foo without
mishap of any kind.''
The commander of the torpedo de-
stroyer was optimistic with reference
| to Port Arthur. He declared all the
forts remained in Russian hands and
that the garrison was confident and
in good spirits.
| The Rastorepni carried sealed or.
ders providing that, undess there
came highly favorable opportunity
to escape, the vessels should be
blown up.
| Two Japanese torpedo boat de-
stroyers were seen at the mouth OF
tAe harbor tonight and their presence
undoubtedly precipitated the action OF
/ the Russians.
A private letter received this even.
| ing from Port Arthur requests the AS
sociated Press to publish a statement
to the effect that all the foreigners are
we'll and that none of them have re
ceived any wounds during the fight
ing.
The former Russian governor OF
Port Dalny, M. Sakharoff, died recent
ly at Port Arthur Of enteric fever.

ROOSEVELT ELECTED HIMSELF
Speech Of Senator Depew at PIatt's
Buckwheat Breakfast.

Oswego, N. y, Nov. 16.-At the
buckwheat breakfast given by Senator
Platt Senator Depew was one of the
after-breakfast speakers. In the
course of his address he said that
Senator Platt's 20 years OF leadership
will stand in political history as un-
equaled in it's absence of factional
strife within the party and the glori-
GUS victories of the party.
Referring to the election, Senator
Depew asked: What elected Roose-
velt?" 'sThe answer is as clear as rev.
elation," he went on. Roosevelt
elected, Roosevelt. No personality in
American public life ever stood out
so distinct in individual characteris-
tics in emphasized traits peculialarly
his own, and in outspoken condolences
with the whole people, like President
Roosevelt. The qualities which his
enemies caricatured or anthematized
were the ones which endeared him to
his countrymen. He holds his com
mission freer from pledges or obliga.
tions, except to the people who elect
ed him, than any of his predecessors

lMPALED ON PICKET FENCE.
Man and Wife Killed While Bearing
News Of Death by Fire.

Appleton, Wis, Nov. 16.-At fire
in a barn near this city Monday night
James Raleigh, who was visiting at .
neighbor's, attempted to rescue his
horse, but was burned to death, the
building falling on him before he could
make his escape.
Mr.. and Mrs. William Hurst started
to the home of the young mans par.
ents with horse and buggy to notify
them of his death. Within one-haH
mile from the place where the young
man had been burned to death both
Mr.. and Mrs. Hurst were killed. The
horse became frightened and threw
them out of the buggy.
Mrs. Hurst was thrown upon picket
fence, one OF the pockets penetrating
her head to the base of the skull, en-
tering through the eye socket. Her
body was found hanging on the fence
in that condition an hour later. Hurst
was thrown to the ground and died
from his injuries this morning.

TALK OF TARIFF REVISION
EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
MAY BE CALLED.
Whatever Changes Are Made Will Be
Made on Protection Prin-
ciples.

Washington, Nov. 16.-The leading
newspapers of the east are printing
stories regarding the outlook for tar
if revision at an extra session of con-
gress to be called early next spring,
and most OF them are saying that the
outlook for such an extra session is
very good
Representative Babcocks public
statement in which he favors revision
has added interest to the discussion
and incidentally shows that he has not
he did two years ago., when openly he
advocated revision and was later COM
PEELED to keep quiet for political rea-
sons. The necessity for silence has
now passed, in his opinion, and he is
again openly in the ranks of the re-
visionists.
'tMr Bobcocks expression of opan-
ion is about as far as the extra ses.
sion idea has gone in a public way.
1t is true tnat it has been discussed
privately Dy other members OF con.
gress, but there is no consensus OF
opinion on the subject, and President
! Roosevelt has reached no decision
concerning it. 1t is matter of too
great importance to be settled offhand
and it is one which will receive the
| presidents most careful consideration
and concerning which he will make
no determination until he has con-
ferred with all the party leaders in
both houses"
Mr.. Bobcock makes 1t very clear in
his public statement that whatever
revision is accomplished will in no
way violate the principles of protec-
ton, so long upheld by the republican
party. There are various schedules,
however, which can be modified with
out endangering that principle or in
juring American workingmen.

Get MONEY
THIS TIME
CODY BANK ROBBERS RAID
THERMoPoLIs SALOON.
MAKE GOOD THEIR ESCAPE
Fast Horses Carry Them Back to the
Bad Lands and Temporary
Safety.

Y Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 16.-The two
bandits who made a descent on the
First National bank of Cody two
weeks ago and killed Cashier Mid
daugh, committed another bold rob-
berry yesterday when they held up the
inmates of Edwards saloon and gam
bling house at Thermopolis, Big Horn
county, and secured large sum OF
money, watches and jewelry. The out
laws wore masks, but were recOg-
nized as George Merritt and his part
ner, who killed Middaugh. They were
mounted on fast horses and escaped
to the bad lands along the Big Horn
river south Of Thermopolis. Posses
were quickly organized and started
in pursuit, but the robbers reached
the mountains ahead of them
These desperadoes doubled back on
their trail from the Hole in the Wall
country after the Cody robbery and
took refuge in the Owl mountains,
south Of Thermopolis, where the Of
ficers had prepared to capture them.
Feeling runs high in Big Horn county
and if the desperadoes are ever
caught they will be punished without
waiting for the courts to convict
them.
The Edwards saloon affair was most
bold and daring The robbers entered
the place heavily armed and ordered
everybody to hold up their hands.
This the occupants of the place did
and everybody was lined up. One OF
the robbers covered the customers
while the other went through their
pockets. The men backed out of the
place and made their escape on fast
horses.

Shaw to Remain in Cabinet.

Washington, Nov. l6.-The state.
ment is made today on what is said
to be good authority that Secretary
Shaw will be invited to remain in the
cabinet, and that the invitation will
be accepted. He was appointed by
President Roosevelt, who has always
admired him and had confidence in
him.
Even should he retire, it is said
that Mr.. Cortelyou will not succeed
him. Cortelyou feels that he has not
had the experience necessary to make
an acceptable secretary of the treas
ury.

NORTHWEST OFFERS MANY oP-
PoRTuNlTIEs TO INVESTORS.
WAS NEVER so PROSPEROUS
Possibilities Of Great Region Are Be-
yond Belief, Declares Eastern
Financial Authority.


Fayant of the Wall Street Journal,
who is returning to New York from
the Pacific coast, passed through the
city today. OF conditions as observed
by him Mr.. Fayant says:
"The northwest, from the lakes to
Puget sound, was never so prosperous
as it is today. Even car window in
spection of the great stretch OF devel-
oping country served by the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific roads
is enough to convince the tenderfoot
from the east of the enormous pOssi-
bilities of this country. One notes
very little. indication OF the unstable
business conditions resulting from
sudden booms. From Minneapolis to
Portland commercial conditions are as
sound as they are in the east Bank
ers, merchants, miners, lumbermen,
ranchmen farmers, manufacturers
and railway men whom met in North
Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington
.and Oregon were all imbued with that
great faith in their country which is
SC characteristic of the west. Every
where | noted the continual influx OF
new capital from the east. Ger
teinly no section of our country pre-
sents greater inducements to capital
than the northwest.
Railway business is expanding
with the country Both the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
snow the effects of many millions OF
dollars spent in the past four or five
years for better equipment, roadbed,
and stations. New masonry culverts,
steel trestles and steel bridges OF the
best construction are noted all the
way west. The Northern Pacific's new
steel bridge at Sand Point, Idaho.
which was opened for traffic last week,
is an example of the kind of work
the northwestern roads are doing.
This bridge is 1000 feet long and cost
81 100000 The roadbeds OF both
lines have been brought up to high
standard and the traveller is as COM
Portable as on the older eastern lines.
Development Just Begun.
MANY new branch lines are either
being built or surveyed. These feed
ers are opening up new mining, agri-
cultural and manufacturing sections
and will swell the steadily growing
volume of traffic. There are enormous
undeveloped resources in the Pacific
northwest which are latent assets OF
| the railroads. The development OF
! western Montana, Idaho and Washing
ton is in it's infancy.
Before left for the west, Mr.. Hill
OF the Great Northern said to me that
| within 10 years the big business OF
!! his road would be on it's western end
There can be little doubt of this. The
mineral resources of this country have
only been scratched. It's timber out.
put will be in increasing volume for
many years to come.
'"The agricultural possibilities OF
this section are far beyond the belief
of fasteners. Already it is big pro.
ducer of cereals and fruit, but it has
only begun. Irrigation schemes are
being undertaken on tremendous
SCALE"

out for them at the Naval Academy

FOR WIRELESS TELEGRAPH.
A School May Be Established
Shortly At Naval
Academy.

Additional sets of wireless telegraph
instruments will be installed at the
Naval Academy for the use of the Off
GERS and midshipmen attached to that
government institution.
Instead of establishing a school for
wireless telegraph operators at the
naval proving grounds at Indian Head,
Md, as was at first intended, this
school probably will be established at
the Naval Academy because the latter
point is more accessible. Announce
ment that the Bureau of Equipment
proposes to ask the Secretary of the
Navy for an appropriation of at least
$500, GOO for the wireless telegraphy
work of the navy indicates in some
degree the rapid progress which the
American navy is now making in this
important branch of the service.
Rear Admiral III. N. Manney, chief
Of the Bureau of Equipment, in con-
versation yesterday stated that the
war in the Far East had proved be-
yond the shadow of doubt the eff
cacy and the necessity of q thorough
wireless system. With view to Civ
ing the young officers in the navy an
opportunity TO learn the manipulation
of wireless telegraphy Admiral Man.
ney has given orders that a number of
additional sets OF wireless instru-
ments shall be sent TO Annapolis for
the use of the midshipmen and the
officers stationed at the Naval Acad-
envy A boat will be kept there most
of the time fully equipped with wire,
less apparatus and the officers and
middies will be given the opportunity
to practice both with the ship and
shore equipments.
