a desperate all-day battle that started

OF remarkable crimes including the
murder of two employees of the Chicago
City railway at one of the companys

each instance being robbery. Emil

many of their crimes. is to be tried
separately. not having been implicated
directly in the particular murder for
which his associates were first ar

The verdict of the jury was delayed

Korean Neutrality Said TO

TELEGRAM HELD TWO DAYS

ACT OF PIRACY.

st. Petersburg, March y C2:50 p. M.
The following reply. inspired by the
foreign Office to Japan's rejoinder to the
Russian protest against the violation
OF Korean neutrality, may be accepted
as official:
Japan's argument that she was JUS
tilted in landing troops in Korea before
( the declaration of war because she had
! Korea's permission, and also that these
troops arrived IN Korea after THE eX-
istence OF q state OF war; is without
value, as Korea, in January, promul-
gated her neutrality TO the powers,
which received it warmly, Great Britain
even officially conveying expressions of
gratitude 10 the Korean government.
Therefore no state Of war gave the
japanese the right to violate her neu-
trality by sending troops in the terri
tory. Even the consent of Korea,
though extorted by the japanese. is
dispatch OF troops was not only before
the war, but before the breaking Off Of
diplomatic relations, as clearly estab-
lished. and. indeed. acknowledged, by
the Japanese themselves.

portion as teams are bettered. The faster the ball the higher will box office receipts rise. This is the story of the game everywhere.
 The feeling in the south towards the great outdoor sport is very favorable, and it will continue to be favorable if Fisherism can be eliminated.
 President Kavanaugh strongly favors the proposition that will put the South ern league in Class A, and it begins to look as if the teams in the south would soon get out of the remorseless clutches of the Eastern league, the american association, the Western league and the coast leagues. Judge Kavanaugh says the Southern league is practically playing Class A salaries, and he evidently does not see why the Nashville mogul should be permitted to dictate the policy of the entire league simply because he prefers low salaried players for Nashville use.

UNITED STATES CAST IRON PIPE
Good Results Shown so Far This Fis-
 cal Year.

From the Wall Street Journal.
 The United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry company has completed about one-half of it's fiscal year and 1t is author itatively stated that the financial results for the half year have slightly exceeded those of the corresponding period in 1903.
 The general condition of the pipe trade is good, but the indications are that they will be better before the close of the year. The companys managers are look ing for a good volume of business dur ing 1905 and the gross profits for the fiscal year which will end May 3l, 1s0o' will doubtless run ahead of 1905 when they amonted to s1,SoS.s1o
 The company is one of the largest users of pig iron in iAe world and a large de- mand for pipes also means large pur- chases by the company of pig iron with which te make the pipes, It is point ed out that while current orders are of good proportions they show a smaller margin for profit than when normal con- ditions prevail in the iron and steel in dustry. but as business improves, higher prices can be obtained with greater bene- flc to the company.
 In a short time the directors will act on the quarterly dividend on the preferred and the five per cent rate established three months ago will be maintained.

Free Churches in France.

A measure that affects forty-five mil lions of people is pretty broad meas ure and that is precisely what the proposition of Premier Combes as to the Concordat Is. It means the sep aration of church and state in France, and the Catholics in that country will under the proposed plan have to sup port the church individually instead of drawing a support of it from the public funds.
 There is nothing dreadful in this. It will simply be an application of the American method to France, and 1t may well be that the Catholics in France will be the gathers, becoming as vigorous and prosperous as the Catholic churches in this country are. Men invariably take an interest in what they directly pay for. Indirect payments, like indirect taxation of the Dingley sort, are never desirable and efficient. The Catholic church will not be hurt by the proposed change.
 The size of the vote-352 to 2S7-- was somewhat surprising, but when it is considered that the republic has come to consider the church as in favor of a monarchy or an empire, all surprise disappears. The charge may not be wholly or even partially true, but the friends of the republic have come to consider the church unfrien ly. and this fact accounts for the vote France is not turning to other churches; it is not as agnostic as Ger many; it simply welded to republi- canism, and it declines to feed and maintain those whom 1t considers un- friendly. No doubt many of the older priests and bishops would like to have the old regime restored, but young France is republican to the core, and it is not probable that the younger ecclesiastics are reactionary.
