drowned. But providence willed other
wise. We found the captain and navi-
gator in the water locked in each 9TH
ers' arms. They had embraced at what
they thought was the moment of death
and were partly unconscious when we
rescued them.
There was a dramatic scene when
the Monomach went down. The Sado
Maru, which survived the remarkable
experience with the Vladivostok squad.
ron, in which the Hitachi Maru was
sunk came upon some of the crew on
the Monomach and rescued them.
Among them was an engineer officer,
who died, and the officers of the Sado
Maru gave him military burial from
the deck. Later the Sado picked up
the Monomach, and, getting line to
her. endeayored to tow her to Tsushi-
ma. The Monomach was listing badly
and the attempt to tow her was a fall
ure. Suddenly there was a great. ex-
plosion aboard the Monomaoh and she
began to settle in the water. Seeing
that she was going down, Capt. ,Ka-
maya ordered the men of the Sado
Maru to line the decks, and calling the
buglers, directed them to sound taps.
1t was a pretty tribute to the ship
which had been gallantly fought ane
to the men who gave up their lives.

we should like to have peace. but in
Japan there are no people who desire
peace at any price. They are willing
that the war should go on If neces-

The Russians, we are told. are too

CRISIS NOT YET REACHED
New Orleans Man says Five Days
Until Critical Period
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 7,-According to
Brigadier General Arsene Perrilllat,
chief of ordnance of Louisiana, 1t will
be five days before New orleans will
face a crisis in the yellow fever situa-
tion. General Perrlist arrived here
from the south last night.
New Orleans is suffering from COM
mercial anxiety" said he, "but resi-
dents of the city feel that the health
officials and the various committees,
aided by the federal authorities, will
cope with the fever. In the meantime
business in that section of the state
is still at standstll.
"Unfair discrimination is being made
against Louisiana by other states and
her commercial interests are suffering
in consequence.
"The city is opposed to the parishes
and the parishes are arrayed against
one another with the shotgun quaran-
tines"
Sir Patrick Manson, X. c. M. G.,
medical adviser to the British colonial
office, who is here on his way to San
Francisco declares that mosquitoes are
among the greatest curses of mankind.
1--WE are yet in the infancy" he said,
"of the discoveries of the transmission
of such diseases by insects, but in the
matter of yellow fever infection all
credit should be given to the Yankees,
who went ahead of our eminent men
and demonstrated that the stegomyia
was the vehicle that caused all the
trouble.
IF there is not there should be law
in every state making it a. criminal
offense to high degree to fail to report
Immediately the prevalence of a case of
yellow fever"

BY Associated Press.
TOXIC, July 9.-An officer of the
naval staff has made a statement in
which he pays high tribute to some
of the Russian officers participating
in the battle Of the Sea of Japan. His
statement follows:
"There were several Russian Off
GERS whose conduct in the recent bat
tie deserves to be held high as model
and example for all officers. Among
them the most noteworthy was the
conduct Of Capt. Rodieonoff, COM
mander of the Nakhaminoff. During
the first day of the battle the Nakha-
mimoff was exposed to the fire of our
main squadron and sustained serious
damage. During the night she was
made the object of severe torpedo at
tacks, and finally. completely disabled,
drifted close to the Tsushima.
1.-THE vessel was sinking and Capt.
Rodeonoff sent seventy of the crew TO
land at Tsushima, remaining aboard
himself with his chief navigator. When
the Japanese approached the sinking
vessel they asked the captain to leave
the sinking vessel. but he refused. The
Japanese boarded the vessel and en-
deavored to drag him into boat, but
he resisted. The ship was listing badly
and threatened momentarily to plunge
into the sea. The Japanese were
obliged TO draw of and the captain
went below, there TO meet his death.
Suddenly the ship went down and our
men thought the gallant officer was

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 1.-THE eve
of the opening of the all-important
negotiations at Portsmouth sees a belief
in the possibility of peace. The last
effort to influence Japan and the Jap
anese through the medium of press ex-
pressions has been made, the denoue-
ment being now too close to make
further efforts to sway public opinion at
home or abroad feasible.
Many Zemstvoists until recently
favored continuance of the war solely
because they considered that some out
side impelling power, such as war, was
necessary to force the government to
grant the demanded reforms. AS a re-
suit of the conference at Peterhof they
have now become convinced that the
granting of a popular assembly on a
comparatively liberal basis is assured
and they therefore no longer desire q
continuance Of the war, but desire peace
on humane grounds. AS this convie-
tion gains ground the ranks of those
reformers who desire peace swels and
the emperor is daily receiving COM
munications from Zemstvoists and 9TH

desire for peace
The question Of the retention of the
island Of sakhalin has dropped out OF
