the sensation of his utterances are SO
unwarranted by any OF the condltlohs OIL
the Philippines that one must conclude
that he has been greatly mislead.
1T is certainly not unfair he contin-
ued, ito question the sincerity OF gem
tIemen who crate over the violation OF
the constitution of independence in the
Philippines, and yet look forward to WIN
ming the control OF the government OF the
United States cheerfully and with great

Crosses Mississippi River.
From the Missouri side he passed to the
Illinois side of the Mississippi river. and
having completed hih self-imposed task
he headed toward Cahokia, and brought
his airship gently to the ground aoout
half mile from that little hamlet.
Immediately after landing hnapensnue
stated that in his opinion the trial OF the
airship was a distinct success. lie sald
that he could have brought the flying
machine to the ground at any time, but
that as he found he could to a certain
extent control its movements after the
motor broke, and as he considered hlm-
self in no danger, he decided to continue
the flight and demonstrate that even
though the motor was broken, that inc
Arrow could be controlled
The flight occupied exactly one hour.
The motor broke about fifteen minutes

The gas balloon is cigar-shaped, OF Jap,
anese silk, fifty-four feet In length ano
seventeen feet in diameter, and requires
5000 cubic feet of gas to initiate 1t. The
frame attachment is thirty feet In length
It carries a double cylinder seven-norse
power gasoline engine, making 1000 revo'
lutions minute to drive the propellers
One of the chief new features OF the
machine is an arrangement whereby the
ship is pulled through the air instead OF
being pushed.
Today's flight was not trial for tne
worlds fair $1O0, 900 prize, Captain Balwir
stated. He said it was to convince the
residents of st. Louis and the world s
fair visitors that he had an airship that
could fly.

Local Crude Oil Advances.

Beaumont, Tex, October 25.-The
local crude oil market advanced &c
today in the pipe line companies offer
ings for Sour Lake, Saratoga and Bat
son crude oils. The local strength of
the local crude oil market Is due, it is
believed, to the salt water in the Jen-
nings oil field and to the well-founded
reports showing steady decline in
the production OF the several Texas
oil fields

Milford chronicle., 1904-02-26

by article one Of the simoneslyi treaty
and by the agreement especially con.
cluded for this purpose between japan
and Great Britain on January 30 1902
as well as by the Franco-Russian
declaration of March 16, 1902.
IN disregard of all these facts IN
spite Of all treaties. in spite of its
oDlgations, and in violation of the
fundamental rules of international
law 1t has been proved by exact and
tully confirmed facts that the Jana
hese government, first, before the
opening of hOstilities against Russia.
landed its troops in the independent
empire Of Korea. which had declared
It's neutrality; second, with a division
OF its feet it made a sudden attac1,
on February 8. that is, three davs prior
10 the declaration of war, on two Rus
sian warships in the neutral port of
Chemulpo. The commanders of these
ships had not been notified of the sew
erance of diplomatic relations, as the
Japanese maliciously stopped the de-
hVery of Russian kilograms bv the
Danish cable. and destroyed the tele-
graphic communication of the Korean
government The details of this das.
tardly attack are contained and pub
hshed in an official telegram from the
Russian minister at Seoul.
In spite of the international laws
above mentioned. and shortly before
the opening of hostilities, the Jana
nese captured as prizes of war GER
tain Russian merchant ships in neutral
ports Of Korea.
Japan declared to the emperor of
Korea, through the Japanese minister
at Seoul, that Korea would henceforth
be under japanese administration, and
she warned the emperor that in case
of his noncompliance, Japanese troops
would occupy the palace.
Recognizing that all the above facts
constitute a fragrant breach of inter
national law. the imperial government
considers it to be its duty to lodge a
protest with all the powers against
this procedure of the Japanese gov
ernment, and it is firmly convinced
that all the powers. valuing the princi-
pies which guarantee their relations,
will agree with the Russian attitude.
At the same time the imperial govern
ment considers it necessary to issue
a timely warning that owing to Japan's
Illegal assumption Of power in Korea.
the government declares all orders
and declarations which may be issued
on the part of the Korean to be in

man of means.
The administration intends to press
the canal project by all proper meth
DDS. As a cabinet officer expressed it, |
the next step after the appointment
Of the commission will be to scratch

he commission as are assured of their |
places, like Admiral Walker and Major |
General Davis. have been giving some |
attention to the provision of the cleri- |
al force and the engagement of engi- |
leering talent to conduct the actual |
work of canal digging.
