IN MAMMOTH CAVE.

these lights taken in by this party

ONE of the demonstrated facts,
which somewhat weaken the claim
that the protective policy is neces-
sary to keep away competition with
European pauper labor is that the steel
trust sells It's billets in Europe for SIS
per ton and makes a profit of 81; while
like blIlets are sold TO the consumers
in this country for s23 per ton The
explanation Is that the 81 per ton
extra. which they charge the people
of this country, enables them to com
pete with the European pauper labor
at SIS per ton. One would think that
a profit of $40 per ton would cover all
this; but the ways and the pressing
needs of a trust are known only to
the trust and to the protection cong
ressmen and they won't tell every
thing.

OPINIONS Of the Il

OPINIONS Of the Democratic press
upon the presidential situation are in
tcresting and of value now and The
Bulletin has presented several. Yes
terday the Memphis Scimitar was
quoted; this morning the Courier
Journal. The concensus of opinion
In the south seems to be against the
rough-rider radicalism in pub Ii c
affairs, which has characterized
the administration Of President
Roosevelt and hence against those
leaders Of the Democratic party who
represent similar policies in govern
nent There Is time enough between
now and the time of choosing dele
gates to the st Louis convention,
to thoroughly crystalize party senti-
ment, ana IT is safe to say the action Of

JAPAN'S CLEVER MOVE.
Korean Treaty Places Her on
High Moral Plane.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Promptly at
noon today, Count Cassini, the Russian
ambassador, handed Secretary Hay
Russia's communication to the powers
protesting against Japan's alleged viola
ton of international laws. The confer
ence between the secretary and am
bassador lasted an hour.
This Japanese Korean treaty is re-
garded here as one of the clevereSt of
the many startling diplomatic moves
that have been made in connection with
the whole eastern question. The effect
is to place Japan on a high moral plane
for it is understood here that this treaty
is an announcement to the world that
even if she prevails in her struggle with
Russia, involving military occupation of
Korea, Japan will take no advantage
of that fact, but will maintain the in
dependence of hermit kingdom.
On the other hand the Russian note
complaining of the violation of Korean
neutrality by Japan is believed here to
be intended to pave the way for future
heavy reclamations, indeed involving
the seizure of Korea and it's annexation
for violation of neutrality in the event
that Russia triumphs in the present
struggle.
Contrasting the two positions, an Off
cial here pointed out that the attitude
of Japan toward Korea was very sim
liar to that of the United States to Cuba
when the republic occupied the island
with it's military forces, only to with
draw them and free Cuba after it had
rid her of Spanish control.

COLLISION ON THE u"
Twenty Persons Injured, Five
of Them Seriously.

New York, Feb. 24.-At least twenty
persons have been injured, five serious
ly. in a collision on the Brooklyn rapid
transit elevated line in East New York.
In the panic that followed the crash
many passengers were severely cut
and bruised while trying to escape.
The wrecked train was approaching
station. having made the run from
the Brooklyn bridge, when it collided
with the rear end of a stalled empty
train. The motor car of the loaded
train was shattered and passengers
were thrown into a heap on the floor
amidst broken planks and glass.
Metal work came in contact with the
fully charged third rail and there was
a weird electric display that added fur
ther to the terror of the passengers.
The station platform alone held the
car from falling into the street. Police
arrived and succeeded in reassuring
the passengers, thus averting serious
stampede.

PREPARING TO DIG.
Administration Will Continue
to Hustle in Canal Matter.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Everything is
ready for the speedy consummation of
the Panama Canal treaty, and both the
war and state department have made
preparations for the next step, the for
mer by the dispatch of troops to the
Isthmus and the latter by the compile
tion of arrangements for the exchange
of ratification of the treaty, which
must take place in Washington. There
is no reason why this ceremony should
not take place within the next forty
eight hours M. Bunau-Varilla, the
minister from Panama was at the state
department today in relation to this
matter and very soon after he has
made the exchange of the treaties, he
will lay down his mission, according to
notice he has already given. His sue
cessor as minister here will be Pablo
Arosenenak, the present head of the
constitutional convention and father
of the secretary of the Panama legation
here. Mr.. Arosenenak is described as
lawyer of ability and a man of
means.
The administration intends to press
the canal project by all proper meth
ods. AS a cabinet Official expressed it
the next step after the appointment of
the committee will be to scratch dirt -
and already such members of the COM
mission as are assured of their places,
like Admiral Walker and Major Gen
eral Davis, have been giving some at
tention to the provision of the clerical
force and the engagement of engineer
ing talent to conduct actual work Of
canal digging.
