ROME, April ia general strike

ated tomorrow morning in accord
ance with the arrangements per-
fected through cipher kilograms di-
rected to all railway centers by the
agitation committee at Rome. The
strike will prove a great embarrass-

strength to do what it considers to be its right

The chief measures on which the
Government relies consist in having
the stations occupied by military and
trains conducted by soldiers, the navy
supplying the engine drivers and
stokers. Trains will be escorted by
soldiers and will carry workmen
ready to repair any damage that may
be inflicted on the tracks. Express
trains will be discontinued and the
minimum of one ordinary train daily
will be maintained on each of the
principal lines. The tracks will be
patrolled by cavalry.

COLLEGE GIRLS
ARE LECTURED
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, April 16.-College women
were excoriated for their lack of sym
patty courage and initiative accom-
plishment of social work and the solv-
ing of social problems yesterday after
noon by Miss Jane Adams of Hull
House and Miss Marion Talbot, dean Of
women at the University of Chicago,
who spoke to large audience OF mem
bers of the Association OF Collegiate
Alumnae in the rooms Of the Chicago
Woman's Club on 1.-THE Relation Of the
College Woman to Social Problems"
Miss Talbot declared that the girl of
to-day did not go to college for the
same reasons that drew women to the
college fold a number of years ago.
There are girls who go to college, -
she asserted, Ito improve their social
positions In certain cases the fashion
able boarding school plays more
prominent part in their college life than
their studies. Such a condition among
college women is deplorable and alb
surd."
Miss Adams, who followed. said that
the college girl was not doing her share
in the solution of the social problems
because she lacked courage and initia-
tive in approaching the task. She as
serted that a certain lack of emotional
tendencies had put college women at a
disadvantage in efforts for the better
ment of social conditions.

STEAMSHIP REPORTS
HEAVY FIRING AT SEA
Cannonading Heard in Vicinity Where
Fleets of Russia and Japan
Are Believed to Be-

HONGKONG. April 1.-THE steam
ship Telamachus reports that she heard
heavy firing $50 miles north of the
Natuna Islands at 800 o'clock on the
afternoon Of April y.
SINGAPORE, April 16.-The North
German Lloyd steamship Prinz Helm
rich reports that she sighted eighteen
vessels of the Russian Baltic squadron
in Kamranh Bay at noon on Friday
last, The steamship did not sight any
japanese warships. Kamranh is in
Cochin China, about 200 miles north
east OF Saigon.
LONDON, April I7.-There is as yet
no news of a naval battle in the Far
East or Of the whereabouts of the
rival fleets. The Hongkong CORE
spondent Of the Daily Mail sends a
rumor Of a small engagement, but
there is no confirmation of this report.
Details regarding the Russian ships
in Kamranh Bay, Cochin-China, are
too meager to be instructive. Accord
ing 10 the Daily Nails Singapore cor
respondent, the North German Lloyd
steamship Prinz Heinrich saw five bat
tleships and six cruisers in the bay,
but the dispatches to other of the Lon
don morning papers are not so precise.
The Daily Telegraph's Singapore cor
respondent, like the Associated Press,
merely reports eighteen vessels and
adds that the captain of the Prinz
Heinrich says that possibly more war
ships were inside the harbor, but that
they were invisible from the offing.
The presence of the Russian squadron
off the AMMAN coast is raising keen in
terest here in view of the possibility Of
their infringing Chinese neutrality and
of the likelihood of Rojestvensky hav-
ing had to split his squadron. The
Morning Posts correspondent at
Shanghai telegraphs that China has in
structed the Governor of the southern
provinces TO maintain strict neutrality
in the event of the possibility of Rus
sian ships sheltering there.
ST. PETERSBURG, April 17.-There
is no information from Vice Admiral
Rojestvensky's squadron, but the Ad
miralty would not be surprised to
learn of skirmishing between scout
ships to-day or tomorrow, as the be-
ginning Of torpedo-boat warfare soon
is expected. The naval organ here ex-
presses the opinion that Togo was
taken completely by surprise when Ro-
jestvensky suddenly appeared at the
entrance of the China Sea, and is now
concentrating his widely scattered fleet
near the Pescadores where ii is be-
lieved sea fight viii occur.
TOXIC, April 16.-The Navy Depart
ment has proclaimed defense zones sur
rounding the Pescadores, the island Of
Okinawa in the Loochoo group and the
islands of Oshima and Emf. off the
province of Osumi. The usual naviga-
ton restrictions apply.

SEES CHANGE IN SENTIMENT.
Russian Correspondent on the Atti-
tude of Americans

luOC VI
ST. PETERSBURG, April 1.-THE
Novoe Vremya prints dispatch from
New York saying that ''the yellow
peril" is not now derided. Far-see-
ing business men, with their eyes on
the Chinese markets, have, according
10 this dispatch. finally awakened to
the growing political influence OF jap
anese over China and the prospect of
complete industrial domination in the
future. Hostility TO Russia, the dis
patch continues, is really not against
Russian occupation in Manchuria, but
is due to the belief that il tends to
monopOlize the trade of this rich Chi
nese province. The dispatch says the
existence of a secret Carbohydrates
treaty is already limited, and adds:
The danger threatens Europe as
Well as Russia, and, if Rojestvensky is
beaten. all the powers, under the
leadership of America, may Join to
make peace"
Editorializing on this dispatch, the
Novoe Nremya says it is no longer the
yellow peril which Europe and
America are now facing, and refers to
the words Of a French savant, who,
when asked how long the war would
last. replied:
Two hundred years. Europe does
not seem TO understand the terrible
truth"
The Novoe Vremya predicts that
the enigma Of the future historian
will be the hostility of some European
nation toward the great struggle be-
tween Japan and Russia, which render
inevitable a conflict between Russia
and Europe" and quotes the words OF
the Vice Governor Of Jerusalem on the
awakening of the Arabs in Asiatic
Turkey TO show the deep-seated
hatred of Asia toward all Europeans
and the eventual menace Of Europe
