This request was made by W. F.
King, former president of the mer-

has written the president as a policy
holder in several comaanies, asking
that such an investigation be made
under the interstate commerce law
Should this course be deemed imprac-
ticable, Mr.. King asks tho president to
appoint q national commission along
the lines of the coal commission which
settled the anthracite strike to make
an inquiry and report
IN case the president decides that
he has no jurisdiction" said Mr. King
It Is my purpose to form a committee

III Russian Fleet Attempts to Use
American Waters for COnling
WrpOses--R UASian OtIi-'
GERS Captured.

Paris, May 23.-The reports in circl-
lation here to the affect that golfers
belonging to the Russian !ieet intend to
rendezvous at the Babnyan Islands,
north Of the island Of Luzon, Philippine
islands, are not based on precise irfor-
nation but are the results of AgurinS
on the latitude and longitude where a
portion Of the feet was last Observed.
This course If continued, 1t is pointed
out, would take the ships into the Bal
lintang channel near which the Babu-
yam islands are situated. 1t is there
fore inferred that the Russians will
rendezvous In that locality for the pur-
pose of coaling.
Much attention is given here to Vice
Admiral ROjestvenslty's probable pas
sage into the Pacific north Of the is
land of Luzon and suggestions are
made that the, reported intentions OF
the Russians to rendezvous ut the is
land of Babyuan will give the Ameri-
can authorities in the Philippines the
same difficulties in preserving. remote
points against the incursioEs Of Adj
pliral RoIestvensky that the French
authorities experienced in the waters
of Indo-Chira. The naval expert OF
the Temps lengthlly points out that
the information brought by various
steamers to Chinese ports confirms
the previous view that RoiesIvensy
Is skirting the north of the Philip
ijinaa into the Pacific. 1t is main
famed that thr strategic object thus
accomplished is avoiding JlpaTese
torpedo attacks and the mines in the
straits of Formosa and the subsequent
concentration of the japanese Scet in
the straits of Korea, leaving Rojesi :
yensky free 10 make a long det1ur aud
reach Vladlvostok through one Of the
northern styaits Of japan. However
it Is pointed out that the presence OF
the Russian feet north of the Philip
rines places the Russians only few
hundred miles from the Japnnes'
naval base at Keeling, in tie Northern
mart Of the island nf Formosa, and
that fight is still possible before
tie detour commences.
Capture Russian Officers.
