In other words Russia must fight not only Japan, but adverse con ditions of which the transportation problem Is probably the worst.
 When hostilities commenced Russia had eight battleships, thirteen cruisers and thirty-two torpedo craft at Port Arthur and Vladivostok. Japan's naval forces in the same waters amounted to seven battleships, twenty two cruisers and seventy-five torpedo vessels, all of which. so far as known. are still in active service. The Rus sians, on the other hand, have lost for awhile at least-three battleships and six cruisers.

REPUBLICAN,

Secretary Whitney originated the idea of having these modes with tae hope that they would serve to popular ize the new navy, and it is significant of the broadened interest in our war vessels that this extension of the same idea comes from a Rocky mountain state. The Journals Washington cor respondent says that Mir. Heyburn's basic claim is that his bill would en- able millions of people to see the mina- ture ships and would increase the local pride in particular battleships and cruisers. If the measure should be en- acted. two of the models would come to this state, one of the battleship Rhode island to the state house and one of the gunboat Newport to the city hall of our southern city. The name of Provi- dence should be applied to a cruiser within a few years. There are only three cities of it's siZe-Pittsburg. Lou i-ville and Jersey City-that are not al- ready on the list of ships ahoat or un- der construction. The only objection to MT. Heyburn's proposition is the cot and that is not extravaglnt compared to many things that slide through con- gress 9s if greased. .A Yankee genius could construct one of the models for one-half the amount that dawdling worlmen make it necessary for the government to oaY.-PTnvidence Jour nal.

THE EPOCH OF EDISON.

Twetnty- years in the history of the world Is but a drop in the ocean of time and, yet, as the banquet ten dered to Thomas A. Edison by the American Institute of Electrical Engi- neers last night reminds us, it is only a quarter of a century since the Wiz ard of Menlo Park invented the incan- descent light and first demonstrated the commercial possibilities of electri- cal power.
 A few years prior to this, at the Universal exhibition in Paris in 1878, the Russian Jablochkoff astonished the world by the introduction of the electric arc light. The splendid Ave nue de FOpera in Paris was lighted by the Jablcchkoff arc light, and it was the main wonder of the exhibition. One year later Edison invented the in candescent light and, in spite of the scoffers, he soon demonstrated the commercial possibilities of electricity. The age of steam, which had lasted for 75 years. was in twinkling supr- seded by the age of electricity, and fer 25 years it has been steadily driven backward by the new power.-Brook- Tn Citizen.

tuted by the naval authorities VII probably show whether the accidents were due to abnormal developments of the powder since the particular lots were stored. If such a finding is an nounced there will be much apprehel- sion in the navy, where every ship must carry a quantity of the smokelczs powder Of course the department will at once impose restrictions which wiz protect life and property. and every thing will be done to exact precauti0n- ary measures of those who handle the amTnunitfon Already the Washington officials have directed that the smoke less powder charge of naval guns be reduced so as to produce muzz,e veloe- ities which are 200 foot-secondS less than the pressures hitherto permitted. Rear Admiral O'Neil, the navy chief of ordnance, says there is no need of alarm, and that the new requirement is established with the idea of antici- pating whatever increase of power may be developed in smokeless powder by age. In the army there Is also cone nervousness over the situation. Gen eraf Crozler the chief of ordnance of that service, says that the powder now i1 use hos an amount of strength which, if 1t were all to be developed at the wrong rate, would demolish the guns, and tt becomes necessary to con trol the method of burning the powder so as to insure the safety of the ord nance.
 The experts are no. absolutely cer- tain when this rate of burning the DOW der will go so far as to produce an accident. This was not the case with charcoal powder. The ordnance ex- perts of the army and navy are look ing carefully into the subject with view to ascertaining the exact coadi- tlon. They feel that the time has come when it will be possible to learn some thing of the effect of age on smokeless powder

Untrustworthy Explosives.

Recent accidents on board American naval vessels, placing out of service, at great jeopardy to human life, an important type of weapon, are causing great alarm among army and navy ordnance experts. It is evident to tech nical observers that there Is some un- known influence at work. The sus- picion of the experts has been arouse l in the direction of smokeIess powder, regarding which there have been num- erous doubts and some timidity. The qualities of the composition were de- terminable up to given point, say ord nance officers, but there was one ele- ment which could not be even roughly estimated, and this was the effect pro- duced on the. powder by age, the re- suit of storing the composition in the shore depOts and in the magazines of the coast Qualifications and or ship board. So far, the accidents on board vessels have been limited to tho guns. four Of which-two on board the Iowa and two on the San Francisco-have been ruined. There has been no loss of life.
 The investigations now being insti-
