The War News.

Reports of Japan's successes against Rus
STA continue to cone from various sources
Of Information. with different degrees of
credihility. There has been no serious dis
position in Russian quarters to minimize
the Importance Of the first Japanese stroke
NJ the war, the night attack upon the ships
at Port Arthur. There was to be sure an
early circulation Of report in ST Peters
burg, that Japan had lost eleven ships IN
that engagement. but it was promptly and
erectually checked by the government it
self. The frankneSs with which Admiral
Alexiens official announcement of the Rus
sian losses was given out for publcatio
did moi operate 10 extend the truth over all
Russ l. for at the same time when st
Pete, sourg was mourning, the Russians in
NladiSostok were celebrating d repor; ed
japanese defeat at Port Arthur and their
enthusiasm over this report he'd been en-
HANGED by later announcements of the rout
OF the japanese at the Yalu river and the
successful landing of Russian troops at
Chenlulpo. In the light of confirmed bulle-
tins of Japanese successes at Port Arthur

reminds the world of the rejoicing in Mad

Posterity and the Canal.

Mr. Carmack opposes the canal treaty
and appeals to posterity. He is certain that
in that great court the President for his
dealings with the new government at Pam
anna, will be condemned.
Posterity is not likely to reverse the judg-
ment of this day. and that judgment. both
at home and abroad sustains the President.
He acted promptly, as he should have done.
There was no reason whatever why he
should daily with the proposition presented.
The revolution that stood accomplished had
been openly threatened for months, and the
new government which represented it was
ready for business He recognized it at
once, and other powers came right along
behind him. Nobody seemed conscious or
committing a crime. Everybody was think
ing about the canal, and everybody re-
joiced at this opportunity presented to the
United States to close terms for completing
the work.
All of this will be as plain to posterity as
it is to us. And more than this. Posterity
will view the completed canal. 1t will see
the worlds interests greatly advanced by
the waterway. 1t will rejoice in its exist
ence. and wonder how the nations man
aged to do business without it SO long.
And so, in appraising it and those who in
slider minor points at all. The point for an
issue by a political party in the United
States in 1904 will not in that day be re-
membered. That is a small matter even
now.
1t is not unlikely that Colombia, bitter as
her feelings are toward us, will in a few
years recast her judgment and rejoice in our
presence on the isthmus She is bound to
benefit by ii materially The canal should
be a boon to the whole of Central and
South America. That our terms were not
made with Colombia was entirely her own
fault. The great majority of her people
are not as yet familiar with the case. When
they come to understand it, and to realize
the bungling that took place in Bogota,
they may feel much more bitterly toward
some of their own politicians than they
now do toward US. Mr.. Carmack. indeed.
before his auburn poll whitens or his au-
burn vocabulary pales, may hear of those
gentlemen emigrating to the United States
for protection from their own people,
whose interests they sacrificed by short-
sightedness and greed.
Posterty is all right. The President has
nothing to fear from that court.

Want property Reconveyed.

Another move in the litigation over
the property of the aged and incompe-
tent sisters, Mary Ann McCann and
Eliza j. Stoddard, was made yester-
day by the filing of a suit to compel
the reconveyance by Mrs. Stoddard to
Mrs. McCann of a half interest in the
property at Harrison and Thirteenth
streets. 1t was bequeathed to them
by their brother, David Fitzgibbon
The plaintiff in the action is the Cen
trail Trust Company, as guardian for
Mrs. McCann, and the defendants are
Mrs. Stoddard, her guardian, Isabella
Affect, and Joseph NJ. Toner. 1t is al
legged that on November 16 last, by
fraud and in conspiracy, Mrs. McCann
was persuaded by Toner to deed her
half interest in the lot to Mrs. Stod-
dard and that at that time Mrs. Nc
Cam was incapable of doing any busi-
