to the congress, which had retreated
to Baltimore upon the approach of
Howe and CORVALLIS through the Jer-
seys, and Seymour and Talbot back to
the ship to make necessary arrange
ments for their departure.
Seymour shortly afterward turned
the command of the, MelIish over to
the officer Mr.. Morris designated as his
successor, and Talbot delivered his
schedule to the officer appointed by
General Putnam to receive it. Refus-
ing the many pressing invitations to
stay and dine or partake of the other
bounteous hospitality of the townspeo-

quietly with Seymour's aunt, his only
relative, and at o'clock on Christmas
morning, accompanied by Bentley and
Talbot, they set forth upon their long,
cold ride to Washington's camp. ride

NE FEARS AMERICAS POWER
Sir Iohn CoIomb's Plea For a
Larger Critish Navy.

London, June 80 During the dis
custom OF the naval estimates in thu
House Of Commons today Edmund
Robertson (Lihsral) an ex.eivil lord
OF the admiralty, asked for further
information concerning the new
battleships, Mr.. Pre'yman, secre-
tsry o. the admiralty, replied at
length, claiming the highest efficiency
,I.he navy under the new plan. He
declined for strsgic reasons to give
particulars OF the new battle ships,
but said Great Britain proposed TO
lead, and not follow other nations in
naval construction.
Sir John Cciomb Conservative
said he did not agree with the OPP
position speakers in saying the time
had come when the naval expsndi.
ture might be reduced. On the con
trary, Sir John said, everything
pointed to tie necessity for keeping
up the naval strength OF Great
Britain. The real question now was,
"Who is gong to rule the Pacihc?"
President Roosevelt said the United
States intended to rule the Pacific
The United States was giving every
sign that this was its intention by
the extraordinary increase In It's
naval power.
Sir John asserted that in the not
distant future questions would arise
in the Pacific affecting the policy OF
Japan, the United States and Great
Britain. He asked what Great
Britain was doing against the time
when It's interests ceased to be iden-
tical with those OF the two great
powers whose naval bases were in
the Pacific. No one believed that
the Anglo-Japsnese alliance would
last forever.
Great Britain looked with dread
and and horror to rupture with
the United States, Sir John said, but
it could not shut Its eyes to the fact
that rupsures had occurred between
the most friendly nations. Sir John
asked what the government was do.
ing to remind Canada and the British
Colonies OF the great responsibilities
which they would incur when their
seaports and immense interests in
the Pacific were imminently threat
ened.

Demand Reforms at Once
or viii Set Up Government.

st. Petersburg, July 8 The remst.
vos of st. Petersburg and Moscow,
where the mobilization is commend
ing, have taken the grayest decision
-ince the reform agitation became
active. Il Is understood that the
most violent disorders prevail In
many OF the provinces, and are
spreading; but the officials prevent
the public knowing much about the
troubles. They have alsoprohibited
the zemstvos from discussing the
matter at their public meeting. The
families Of reservists, supported by
Ill the working classes, have been
'lamoring since the beginning OF the
week to learn from the zemstvoists
'he meaning OF the war measures,
md also the meaning OF thepromises
III internal reform.
The zemstvos Of st. Petersburg and
Moscow provinces have been able to
iutercommunicate and arrive at a
common understanding. They have
sdopteda decision to present mem
orial to the car regarding the quss.
ton OF reforms, in which they declare
that unless the reforms promised are
