The OUTLOOK.

RussO-JapaneSe tOrlal acquisition
War. in the war in the
East is much larger question of the
relation of the Oriental countries to
the rest Of the world. For the last
three centuries it has been growing
more clear that the Asiatic countries
would become in time dependencies of
the nations of Europe. All Of North
Asia is now in,the hands Of Russia, and
the best of South Asia, the country of
India, is held by England. Persia is
under Russian control. The Indo-
Chinese peninsula is held by France
and England. This war will decide
whether China is to be partitioned off
among the greedy Europeans and
whether Corea is to be swallowed up
by the Cossack. The war then means
a fight of self defense for the little
brown man, for when China and Corea
fall, Japan's turn will come next. It
makes one feel as though he would like
to see little Japan give the Russian
bear good drubbing and teach Europe
that there are brave men and true un-
der the Eastern skies. America is
interested in the war in a commercial
way for if Russia wins it means that
the manufacturers of Europe will sup
ply the manufactured goods for that
part of the world. Germany and Eng
land will take the trade that Russia
does not want, if Russia wins. The
Japanese are great believers in the
future and the power Of the yellow
race, and she is now with her back to
the wall fighting for her life. May the
God of battles give us the issue which
will promote civilization and the ad-
vancement of human liberty.

Electric Light We have it from

To-day. that in this age
of the world electricity is fast SUPER
ceding gas as the thing to give us light

900 above the cost of gas and employed
a thousand more men In the use of
electricity for lighting, New York
state has increased over 1000 per cent
in 10 years. There are now 1000 and
over Central electric light stations in
America and they earned $85, 900, 900
last year. The cost of construction
and equipment was half billion dol
lars. 1t has been estimated that there
are over $4,000 electric light plants in
this country that are run for private
parties or for small companies. When
we know more about electricity it will
be possible for any average size village
to get its light from some stream anC

Baltlmore'S American cities,
Big Fire. in spite of their
great fire departments, seem unable to
cope with great conflagration when
it comes. Fire proof buildings go down
with the other buildings and nothing
avails to stop the flames except some
natural force. like a river or a broad
expanse Of unbuilt territory. The es-
innate of the loss from the Baltimore
fire is from $50 to 200 million dollars.
OF the other cities which have been
afflicted in times past with the fire
fiend the following is partial list;
The great Chicago fire in 1871 entailed
a loss of s1so, 900, 900. The Boston fire
in 1872 sent up s8O,0o0,ooo in smoke.
The Ottawa-Hull blaze in 1900 wiped
out property estimated to be worth
s12, 900, 900. Jacksonville's fire cost
s11 900, 900 in 1901. 1t is fair ques.
tion whether, with our more rapid
methods of transportation, it would
not be we'll for the cities to spread out
more and not to bring together In
tightly compacted buildings such a
mass of fuel for the flames. One OF
the things to be said for the sky
scrapers is that they are quite apt te
stand alone in their glory with less tt
set them on fire, especially after three
or four stories are passed. It seems q
pity for so much good property to &c
up in smoke when wider streets anc
more breathing space might prevent
it. Give US more air for safety from
fire as we'll as for health.

undertaken by every physician who is
familiar with the use of the throat

last two years is $500 according 70 a state
rnent by President William T Fields OF the bank
to-day. MI Fields said there no truth In the
report that Smith had distracted securities from
the bank and given them 10 brokerage firm as
collateral for speculative ventures He added that
the examination OF the securities OF the bank has
been completed and every paper found It's proper
place. All that remained 10 be done now was 10
determine the exact amount OF cash missing by
examination Of depositors books
President Fields said that the simplest way TO
explain how Smith took the money was TO saw
that he kept back part OF the deposits OF Gus
toners having large accounts and increased the
figures his daily cash balance sheet The rea-
son that discrepancies did not quickly appear was
that Smith did not touch small accounts. Presi-
dent Fields said that $4,000 OF the surplus was
charged or to-day profit and loss leaving 4 NET
surplus Of over $4,000 which would be increased
by $1,000 when Smiths bond was paid.
Attorneys FOR the bank have attached money
standing 10 the credit OF Yeomans & Din In tbs
Southngton Bank and property in a safe deposit
vault in one % the local banks. The Tradesr1en-s
Bank alleges that for more than two years past
Smith. with the aid and assistance OF the de-
these speculatlOns that with the aid and colluson
OF Smith. the defendants wrongfuy and intention
ally obtained false and fraudulent credits at the
National Tradesmen's Bank and had obtained cred
money or equivalent for such credits. II is further
alleged that the defendants wrongtully withdrew
money from the bank TO the amount OF $4,000 and
that they converted this money 20 their own use.
The firm has issued q statement DENYING the
allegations OF the bank. saying among other things
that Smith had done no specializing with the firm
since last November. and that IL he had lost the
money since December the bank officers saw
the money could not have been lost through the
defendants once The firm says II Is ready 10
