FOR THE WOUNDED
Wounded Russians Were Taken
Aboard at ChemuI pc
BOATS SENT TO ASsIS1
The Russian Engineers Were Cared
For on Vicksburg For Some
Time And Declined Fur
Their Aid With Thanks.

Washington, May 10.-The attention OF
the bureau of navigation of the navy
department today was called to the Off
cial report of NJ. Pavloff, Russian min
lister to Korea, which was gazetted in
the Official Messenger, stating that the
commander of the Vicksburg refused,
after the engagement at Chemulpo' to
take aboard his vessel wounded men
from the Russian warships Variag and
Korietz. The bureau produced the fol-
lowing extract from the report of Com
mander w. A. Marshall commanding the
Vicksburg at Chemulpo which the Off
eials regard as a complete rebuttal:
About 1890 p. m. February 9, both
Russian vessels, Korietz and Variag,
headed in toward their anchorage at full
speed and as they approached 1t was
seen that the Variag had a list to port
and appeared to be on fire aft on the
port quarter, a number of Japanese in
pursuit until about a mile inside of 70
Dolm, but not firing, as the foreign men
of-war were directly IN line of fire. when
they gave up the chase and reioined their
squadron outside. At 1850 the Variag
anchored about 400 yards to the north
ward and westward of the Talbot with
the Elba about 800 yards to the south
ward of her. On learning that she had
quite number of wounded men, | sent
our medical officer on board to render
assistance. The same was done by the
Talbot. Elba and Pascal.
"A little later on, on its being reported
that the Variag was in sinking condi-
ton. two Of our cutters and the whale
boat, with boats from the other cruisers,
assisted in taking off her personnel and
putting them aboard the Talbot and Ell
ba Two Russian officers, engineers, were
brought on board the Vicksburg and TAX
en- care of for some time, and on my Of
fering to have the Zafro used as tempo-
rary quarters, they were taken to the
Elba and where their captain detained
them and declined my offer with thanks. "
1t Is pointed out by the chief of the
navigation bureau that the Zafro. which
was rendered as a hospital ship, is a
roomy naval transport and was much
more suitable for the accommodation OF
the wounded, than the little Vicksburg
with Its eramped quarters.

Wv and SOCIETY
AS TO BRIDGE WHIST.

Are women poor players?" This Is a
question that is a good deal discussed
now that it has become customary for
the fair sex to play for money at bridge
whist and bet at the races" writes Miss
Pitkin in the Times Democrat "A good
many unchivalrous members of the stern
er sex contend that 1t is very difficult to
get their winnings when a woman hap
pens to be the loser.
I'VE risk our money and expect to pay
If we lose said a man who makes no
secret of his dislike to play cards with
women, and although 1 know some wo-
men who are as straight as a man in
such matters, there are others who have
a most convenient habit of forgetting
their obligations A man who forgets his
debts of honor can be reminded of it
at the next sitting; in fact, he must nav
straight or he can not play; but with a
woman it is different A man must pocket
the loss and say nothing about 1t. The
conditions of risk in game of cards
should be absolutely equal. and for that
reason | do not care to play with wo-
men,
Women contend that men are very un-
fair to them in this respect ''Of course"
said woman bridge player, we can
not carry money about with us as the
men do. We have no pockets in our
evening gowns to hold bills or a check
DOCK, but We generally pay all right, and
what | do mind" she continue is the
way men assume beforehand that they
are not going to be paid when we say
we will send the money. A couple of
weeks ago Carrie A. lost quite a little
sum to Bobby NJ. at Mrs. G.. s, and said
she would send him a check. The next
morning she went away. and Bobby
told number of people that he never
expected to hear from that winning and
put the sum down in his bridge account
as loss. OF course, Carrie sent him a
check in a few days, but do you sup
pose he ever told the people he had
spoken to that he made a mistake? OF
course not II a man had gone off with
out paying he would have felt perfectly
sure that his money was safe, and said
nothing about It; in fact he would not
have dared to, but woman can be ac-
oused of dishonesty, and no one thinks
anything about it. 1t is dreadfully UNI
fart"
