No CRITICISM of the street railway
company managementror of its policy
should be construed to apply to the
men who operate the cars. The con-
ductors and motormen have been uni
fortn1y considerate of and courteous
to the patrons of the road, and their
tact has gone far to redeem an other
wise into1erable situation. The con-
ductors have collected the extra
fares, of course, and in doing so have
come in for a good deal of more or less
good natured kicking and some down
right abuse from the patrons of the
line which properly belonged to their
official superiors, but the public
should remember that they are only
obeying orders and that they are in
no way to blame for the policy of the
company.

CAUGHT BY THE GATES.
DR.. and Mrs. Jorgeusen Narrowly Es-
cape Being Run Down by a Train.

Drs anu MIS- JOrReuSen Narrowly Els"
cape Being Run Down by Train.
DR.. and Mrs. P. P. NJ. Jorgensen
and their little child had narrow es-
cape from being rundown by Chicago
and North Western train at the Park
steet crossing late Monday afternoon
and had it not been for the fact that
and broke them the entire party would
have been ground to pieces under the
wheels of a North bound passenger
train. AS it was they escaped with
minor injuries.
DR.. Jorgensen was driving West
on Park street and as he approached
the crossing he stopped and looked TO
the North and South bnt saw no train
approaching. He started to drive &C
cross the double tracks but when his
horse had stepped onto the West
track there was c1ang of the bell
and the gates came down with bang.
The horse an excitab1e animal 1eaped
forward at the same time and the
gates were broken and the horse
passed through. The buggy had
just cleared the tracks when the train
passed. Fortunately none of the
members of the party was seriously
injured. The buggy was badly
damaged and DIR. Jorgensen has
notified the company that he will
demand damages. The accident ac-
cording to the Doctor resulted from
the fact that the gateman was so busy
watching number of teams at the
Market street crossing that he did
not see the approaching buggy. 1t is
evident that accidents like this are
liable to happen so long as both sets
of gates are worked from one tower
and some other arrangement should
be made.

ADMIRAL ToGo's CHARACTERISTIC
Always Fights, Never Reports No De-
tails Yet-Submarines

Always Fights, Never Reports No De-
tails Vet-submarines
Toxic, May 31.-The proverb that
Admiral Togo always fights and sell
dom reports is proving true in the
case off his greatest battle. From the
briefest and most fragmentary reports
coming to Toxic it is impossible to
gain an approximate conception or pic
ture of the desperate and decisive COM
bat. The navy department, after an
nouncing the bare results, has lapsed
into silence again 1t meets inQulrers
with the statement that the depart
ment is not interested in the publica-
ton of news, but is concerned only in
securing victory for Japan.
Admiral Togo appears to have
planned and laid complete trap which
fitted Admiral Rojestvensky's action,
ind the Japanese ut-manoeuvered,
out-fought and out-shot the Russians,
fearlessly taking their lightest cruisers
against the heavy Russian armor-clad
battleships, and smothering them with
gunfire. Admiral Togo had waited for
weeks in the vicinity of the Tsu isl
6nds, refusing to be lured away and to
forfeit his advantage. When Rojest-
vensky encountered Admiral Togo
there appears to have been a running
fight to the northeastward Saturday
afternoon. There was a series of des-
perate and successful torpedo attacks
Saturday night, and a resumption OF
the battle on Sunday, Togo pressing
the Russian fleet toward the southeast
ern coast Of Korea.
Tremendous interest attaches to the
question whether the Japanese used
submarine vessels. The navy depart
ment is silent on this point, but it is
confidently believed that submarines
were effectively used for the first time
in history. Theoretically the sea was
too rough for the employment of sub
marines Saturday, But the japanese
sailors welcome desperate chances. 1t is
believed that torpedo boats and de
stroyers scored heavily Saturday night.
kilograms from Europe says that ma
val experts there are suggesting that
the submarine is the only war machine
that could account for the defeat OFT the
Russians

AS THE public becomes accustomed
to the presence of the automobiles in
the public highways the outcry
against the machines is dying out to
a great extent. The history of the
bicycle is going to be repeated in the
case Of the automobile. Twice as
many autos are in use this year as
last but the complaints are not
anywhere near as numerous and the
feeling against the machines is not
nearly as bitter as it was. The
