The Associated Press learned author
ltatively tonight that the Rastoropny
carried scaled orders providing that
unless there came an opportunity to
escape. the vessel should be blown up.
Sufficient powder for this purpose was
eecreted before the DESTROYER left Port
Arthur. The Japanese consul says the
Russians wasted their vessel, as the
Ryeshitelni incident would not have
been repeated. Two Japanese torpedo
boat destroyers We're seen at the mouth
OF the harbor tonight, and their pres
ience undoubtedly precipitated the ac-
tion OF the Russians in blowing up
the Rastoropny. The Japanese consul
says nine of the Russian crew came
ashore with their rifles, against which
action he has protested to the au-
thorities.

exploit the islands. Such proceedings are not only unwise, but are most harmful to the Filipinos, who do not need independence at all, but who do need good laws, good public servants, and the industrial development that can only come if the investment Of Amer jean and foreign capita in the islands is favored in all legitimate ways.
 Every measure taken concerning the islands should be taken primarily with q view to their advantage. We should certainly give them lower tariff rates on their exports to the United States; if this IS not done it will be a wrong b extend our shipping laws to them. I earnestly hope for the immediate en- actment into Jaw of the legislation now pending to encourage American capital to seek investment in the islands in railroads, in factories, in plantations, and in numbering and mining.
