Annapolis, Jan. 30-President Roose-

Philadelphia.
Roosevelt began his address by say
ing that he was unable to see how q
good American could fail to be bet
ter American after coming to Annap-
oils and seeing what the navy was and
what it was soon to be.

pect peculiar care for your interests on

the country" the president said, that
cry about militaryism is the most
foolish and baseless. No nation is as
free from the danger and growth Of
militaryism as are we," he said.
"The danger is lest we do not take
sufficient thought to prepare our men
and material. If this country intends
to do its duty on the side of law and
order, then it must see to it that it is
able to make good, should the necessity
arise" Referring to arbitration treat
les now pending before the senate the
president said:
Every friend of peace will join
heartily in seeing that these treaties
become a part of the supreme law of
the land. He said this nation seeks
peace, not because we are afraid of
war, but because the American people
love the eternal and inmutable laws
of justice and right living. Hd then
talked to the members of the gradu
ating class, reminding them that one
of their great duties was ito see that

BEEF TRUST CASE DECIDED.
Opinion Of Lower Court Against the
Packers is Affirmed.

Opinion Of Lower Court Against the
Packers is Affirmed.
Washington, Jan. 80. - The supreme
court today decided the case of the
United States VS.. Swift & Co., known
as the beef trust case, charging con-
spiracy among the packers to fix pric-
es on fresh meats, etc. The opinion
was handed down by Justice Holmes
and affirmed the decision of the court
below, which was against the packers.
In the opinion Justice Holmes
discussed at length the various con-
tentions Of the packers and disposed
Of them individually. He admitted
some changes were less specific than
desirable, but said this was necessar-
lily true on account of the vast extent
Of the field covered. He added suffi-
cient had been shown to prove con-
tinuous offenses and offense of such q
nature as to justify the proceeding.
The opinion continues the injunction
granted against the packers under the
Sherman antitrust law by the lower
courts. The opinion was concurred In
by all the members of the court.
Chicago, Jan. 3O.-Peter s. Grosscup,
speaking Of the decision said: Tho
decision establishes the right of the
government to prevent combinations a
mong manufacturers of meats. 1t for
tif1es the Sherman act. 1t is a long
step in the direction of effectual gov
ernment supervision. But to my mind
the real significance of the decision is
much deeper and far reaching than
even this. 1t effectively clears the
decks for what / believe will be the
next really great national movement,
organization and supervision, by the
nation itself, Of the great corporations
of the future, movement whose chief
object will not so much be to control
prices, or merely curb power, as to
bring corporate ownership within reach
and reasonable confidence Of the peopll
at large, and thus to repeoplize and
republicanize again the Industrial own
ership of the country"

at Warsaw Ordered.

London, Jan. 30-The foreign office
has received a telegram from Consul
General Murray at Warsaw reporting
that himself and Vice Consul Mucu-
kahn were charged by Russian cavalry
men engaged in clearing the streets OF
Warsaw. 1t appears Murray is par
TALLY deaf and probably did not hear
the approach of the troopers and when
he subsequently endeavored to make
known his personality it was without
avail. The foreign office has tele-
graphed to Ambassador Hardings to
make urgent representations, at ST.
Petersburg OH the subject.
Lamsdorff hastened to reply to
Hardinges note, expressing regret
If the British consul general and vice
consul at Warsaw were injured, and
informing him that an immediate IN
uuiry would be made to establish the
facts The consuls are understood to
have been wounded by Cossacks While
the latter were clearing the streets.

STRONG PROTEST
Attack on the Consulate at War
saw Subject of a New Diplo-

RELATIONS MORE STRAINED
Ambassador for England at st. Peters
burg Urged to Make the Incident of
Sunday the Subject Of Strong Rep.
Observation-Disclosures Attache Sent
to Gather Evidence.

st. Petersburg Jan. 30.--New COM
plications between Great Britain and
Russia are feared on account of the
attack on the British consul and vice
consul at Warsaw Saturday night.
Coming on the heels of placards posted
by Assistant Chief of Police Roudneff
melting revolution In Russia, the War
saw incident is likely to arouse an out
burst in Great Britain, which may a.
gain strain the relations between the
two countries. Beyond the fact of an
attack at Warsaw resulting In the
wounding of the British vice consul,
who is now in hospital in the British
embassy here, has no details of the
affairs. British Ambassador Hardinge
has already delivered a note to For
eign Minister Lamsdorff asking for inn
mediate Investigation and explanation,
reserving any claims which may here
after be made and at the same time
asking for the protection of British
consuls thruout the empire. BY the
first train he also dispatched Major
Napier, British military attache, to
Warsaw to secure full report on the
circumstances. LamsdorT replied to
Hardinge's second note on the subject
of the Moscow placards by saying in
structions had been sent to remove all
traces Of the placards from the streets.
1t is learned, however, similar notices
had been posted at Libau and Reval,
which led to the renewal of representa-
tions on this score. In this connection
the appearance of the proclamation of
the holy synod instructing orthodox
priests to inform their parishioners
that strike and revolutionary move
ments were promoted by external as
we'll as internal enemies of Russia with
the object of embarrassing the mill
tary and naval plans has created some
thing of a furry among the foreigners
here, especially British, who believe
the object is to incite hostility. No
further action, however, has been talk
en- by either Hardinge or any other
foreign representatives
A thousand employees, some Workmen
of the Puliloff works, where the strike
originated, have asked for celebration
Of a religious service by the metropolis
tan of ST. Petersburg, before resuming
work, so as to remove the effect of the
presence of the 'unfrocked priest and
communicated leader" Father Gopon.
Some social democrats are protesting
against the arrests of Friday and Sat-
urday, on the ground that the action
taken was a violation of the implied
promise contained in the proclamation
of the authorities: The Manufacture
ers' Association will meet this week
to decide the question of paying wages
of strikers for the time the latter were
not at work.

question when he supported the MIC

spoken of again in connection with
the interstate commerce bill. 1t is
beine pointed out now that the bill
can never pass, and the railroads do
not expect it to. Although drafted by
their friend, Colonel Hepburn, they
know it is so clumsy that 1t will do
nothing but founder along in the

from becoming law.

Russians have occupied Santatitse,

Mistchenko and Kondratsvitch were
wounded.
Toxic, Jan. 30.-The casualties dur
ing the fighting at Chenchchpao
and Heitkoutai where the Japs were
victorious are estimated at 5000 Japs
md 10000 Russians. Activity on the
Shakhe river seems to have ceased.
The Manchurian army headquarters,
telegraphing yesterday, says: There
has been no great change in the direc-
tion of the right and center armies
since the night of the 2Sth, except
constant collisions between recon-
noitering parties In the direction of
the left army the enemy keeps up
slow but constant cannonade The
enemys main body at Chenchchpao
and Heikoutai seems to have retreated
In the direction of Heinyupao. At a
point ten miles northwest of Chengaan
the enemy left many dead.

the entire east was undisturbed, except
by small scouting affrays during the

The army is now working under new
organization and entirely new orders
thruout, these even affecting newspa-
per correspondents more vigorously.
The creation of increased Notifications
in the center by both armies, resulting
In both sides heaping their reinforce
ments on their flanks reaches point
where that side falling behind will
slowly be forced to precipitate battle.
The present state of affairs is appar-
entity due to clear, cold weather.
The Japanese have advanced every
available man to the front. 1t is re-
ported that Lao Yang is deserted by
soldiers The railroad south Of Liao
Yang is strongly held, especially the
bridges, which the Cossacks report are
unapproachable on account of former
Russian defenses and supplementary
japanese works. In addition to Hol-
antai and Fiechiachuangtzu three 9th
er villages not SO important were occu-
pied by the Russians. two of which
have already been relinquished. More
has been learned OF the magnitude of
the Japanese strength opposite the
Russian offensive movement and as the
Japanese appear disposed to show their
strength, it probably will result in Inn
mediate restoration of the original line
of defense, if not in Japanese aggres-
sive movement. Final reports give loss
es at Holantai and Fiechiachuangtzu
as less than at first announced. The
Russians appear to have satisfied
themselves of the strength of the Jap
hnese.
