Great Operatlons Are Impending.

St. Petersburg (By lc).-The War

WILL NOT INSURE CRIMINALS.

Of J. l.. Blair.

that because the strain OIL the mind OF

will not accept policies from members
Of the criminal class, and that had
they known that James l.. Blair had
embezzled and committed forgery and
other crimes they would not under any
conditions have accepted him as a risk.

concealed the fact. they now refuse pay
ment on a policy Tor 100000. which,
he carried for almost two years.

given at hearing before Judge Soho

appointed by the ST. Louis courts to
take testimony in the silt OF James l.
Blair's widow for the recovery OF the
sum her husband was insured
DR.. 2. Sinons. medical director OF the
Mutual Lie insurance Company, tectihed
that he examined Mr. Blair on January
8. 1902, a. which time Mr.. Blair SAID ne
wished to take out a large policy. In all
OF his statements Mr.. Blair intinated
that he was well able to pay for such
policy. TIE insurance company now
claims that he represented his income at
100000 4 year which was untrue.
The witness explained that the conf
pany objected to taking risks on GRIM
inals because even though the strain due
TO fear OF detection was not there. the
life in penilci,. Try tended to make
high mortuar: record, both through
the vigors Of penal life and through the

produced.

Imam Will Also Break the Limit.

Toxic (By e).--latcr reports,
from Ncrchwarg indicate that General
Mistchcnko's Cossacks, i'll their recent
raiding southwest Of Liaoyang, delIbcr-
,ely invaded neutral territory, and broke
the limits OF tht war zone.
The reported Russian note to The pow
FRS calling attention to China's non
enforcement of neutrality is regarded
here in some quarters as absurd. 1t IS
telt that China'S weakness and constant
failure TO enforce neutrality must re-
lease Japan from obligation to observe
restrictions which Russia openly ignores.
While the extension Of belligerent ter
ritory is to be regretted, it is telt that
Japan must take steps to protect herself
against the repetition OF raidng eXpse-
ditions, he Success Of which depends
on the violation of neutral territory.
