Mr. Rosene comes direct from st. Peters
burg where he spent the winter. He says
that, in the present struggle with japan,
Russia seeks neither Manchuria nor
Korea In a commercial sense, he says,
Russia is perfectly willing that the Jap
anese shall develop Korea as extensively
as they may desire, but Russia does not
propose to let the japanese fortily and
entreneh themselves in military way, for
the reason that the Korean peninsula,
strategically, is to Siberia what Florida is
to the United States.
Mr. Rosene's trip TO St. Petersburg was
on business in the interests Of the North
western Siberian company and the North
western Commercial company. The result
Of his negotiations for business was the
purchase of the Northern Pacific liners,
and he announces that three more steam
ships viii be added to the company's fleet
out Of Puget Sound.

WAR HAS ALREADY MADE
U. S. $50, 900, 600 RICHER

WASHINGTON. d. c., March Is
Treasury experts estimate that at least
$40 000,0 900 has come into this country as
a result of the Russo-Japanese war. Some
of them are disposed to place the amount
at S50,OO0OOO.
These stupendous figures indicate what
has been paid to Uncle Sam by the two
nations in feeding and preparing their war
riors for the fray. They stand for many
cargoes of coal and fleets of vessels laden
with food and materials of war. There
is a current of foreign gold strong enough
to make an impression in centers of trade
all the way from San Francisco to New
York
A single illustration will serve as an
indication of the vast sums that are lining
American pockets According to law.
man having foreign gold in San Francisco
and desiring to get credit for a similar
amount in American money in New York,
may be accommodated by dealing with the
treasury people. He can also save the ex-
penSe of sending the money across the
country. This can be done by depositing
the foreign gold in the sub-treasury in
San Francisco. The sub-treasurer causes
it to be melted and converted into Am
erican coins Then by telegraph ne Sc

Since the war preparations have been
under way japanese yen to the value of

Francisco for conversion and transfer. by
telegraph. to New York. This of course,
stands for only a part of the war supplies
purchased in the east. 1t does not by far
include all the purchases made in the
eastern part OF the country and takes no
account of the food and other supplies pur-
chased in the middle west and the Pacific
slope. Russian gold too. has been coming
in a steady stream-most of it through

The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1904-03-28

In this article | propose to refer to the
subject of war; the oldest of the services,
something in which man has been more or
less engaged from his earliest existence.
The history of tribes and nations has
been largely made up of the history of
their wars on land and sea, The subject
has attracted the attention of historians,
poets, artists, statesmen, orators and di-
vines. Yet, only those who have passed
through the fiery ordeal of long severe
campaigns. of desperate battles can COM
prehend or fully realize the significance of
war.
1t implies destruction, devastation.
death; and the world will have to change
much for the better before it will reach
that high degree of civilization when wars
shall be no more, and when there shall be
universal brotherhood of man.
In the days of antiquity wars were de-
termined largely by physical force and the
weight of numbers; and were even more
destructive of life in the days of the battle
ak and short-sword than at the present
time with all the appliances of machine
rifles and high power guns.
In the science of war the principles of
strategy and grand tactics are the same
today as III the time of Caesars; the mill
tary formation and minor tactics have ma
terially changed Now the problem of
war is largely determined by the wealth of
the nation, and the expense is far greater
in the days of battleships and the costly
munitions of war.
The real expense to nation is today the
same as ever. 1t is not the waste of treas
ure or the devastation of a country that
constitutes the greatest loss to nation
engaged in war. 1t is the destruction of
the flower of the nations young manhood
that are sacrificed and sent down to un.
timely graves That is an irreparable and
deplorable loss to any people or to any
nation.
1t is said that the Crimean war cost one
billion and half of treasure. Our own
great civil war cost eight billions of treas
ure, enough to have given homes for 49,
100000 people, to say nothing of the de-
vastation of the country. Yet by far a
greater loss than the treasure to the coun-
try was that of young men from both sec
tons, who were sacrificed in that terrible
conflict
There are occasions when war becomes a
necessity; as, for instance. the defense of a
nation or the defense of some great princi-
pie or cause; but a far wiser and better
method of determining such great political
questions would be by congress of ma
tons, the supremacy of reason and justice,
rather than by the sacrifice of the young
men of the country.
The great majority of wars, however,
are caused by the ambition of some men,
the intrigues of unprincipled men, to
crafty the avarice of a people, or the ag-
grandizement of a nation. And if only
those who instigate, encourage. promote
and produce war were the participants,
wars would cease and universal peace pre-
vail.
The contrast between a condition of war
and condition of peace was never more

AFTERNOON
WHERE 5000 PEOPLE
ARE FED UNI ER ONE
ROOF EVERY DAY

CONSTANTINOPLE, March est is
estimated that more than 5000 persons
are fed every day at the Dolma Baktche
palace when the sultan is there, and the
treasurer of the household has a pretty
heavy burden upon his shoulders
There is a regular organized force of buy
ers each charged with the purchase of GER
tain supplies for the palace One mans
duty is to buy fish; and to do this for
5000 persons is no light undertaking in a
city which has no great markets. About
ten tons week are required and to secure
this, some twenty men are kept busy.
Nearly $4,000 pounds of bread are eaten
daily. and all this is baked in enormous
ovens at some distance from the palace.
Of course a large force of bakers is re-
CURED as well as another large force of
buyers and carriers of -four and fuel
The sultan's own food is prepared by one
man, and his aids, and no others touch it.
1t is cooked in silver vessels, and when
done each kettle is sealed by a slip of pa
per and a stamp. This stamp is broken IN
the presence of the sultan by the high
chamberlain, who takes one spoonful Of
each kettle before the sultan tastes it--as a
safeguard against poison.
Nearly a ton of rice day is required for
the inevitable pilaff, together with 600
pounds of sugar and an equal amount of
coffee, to say nothing of the other gro
ceries, fruit, vegetables and meat.
That there is enormous waste and ex-
travagance in the kitchens is almost mat
ter of course; it is said that enough is
thrown away daily to feed hundred fam
lies. The surplus is gathered up by the
beggars, with which Constantinople
abounds, and what still remains is eaten by
the scaNenper dogs
