Tokio, June 3-Torpedo boat de- stroyers which have returned to Sasebo
 vided. The Zazanami and Kagerou
 Admiral Rojestvensky. The destroyers
 Kasumi Usugumo, Sazanami and ka- gerou, were ordered to attack the Rus sian warships the night of May 27, and were steaming ahead when they sud- ldenly encountered a number of Rus
 sian ships. The Kasumi narrowly avoided a collision with a Russian cruiser, the closeness of which seemed
 to have saved the destroyers being damaged by the heavy fire which the
 Russians directed on them.
 During the Russian attack the vea- sells forming the destroyer flotilla d.
 furnished details of the capture of Vice continued the search for Russian ships throuhgout the night and in the morn
 ing discovered two torpedo boat de-
 stroyers.
 One of them steamed away but the other was unable to do so. On ap-
 preaching the latter, the Japanese dis-
 cerned a white flag flying from the forcmast and the Red Cross flag astern. She proved to be the Bedovi with Ad-
 miral Rojestvensky and his stan on
 board. The Bedovi signalled that her engines were damaged and that she was short of coal and water. An armed
 guard was sent on board the Bedovi to receive her surrender
 The Russians requested the Japan csc not to remove Admiral Rotestven- sky and the other officers on account of their wounds. and the Japenese com piled, with the understanding that the guard would execute Rojestvensky in
 the event of the delay leading to a meeting with Russian ships, thus run ming the danger of his recapture. The Zazanimi ran line to the Be- doyi and began towing her. The line parted twice. In the morning the ZaEanimi met the Japanese cruiser Akashi, which conveyed the two de- stroysrs to Sasebo. During the trip,
 the destroyers encountered heavy seas
 and their decks were awash during part of the time.

 From their appearance the Russian vessels are not damaged below the water line. Their Tunnels, however, are riddled by large and small shot. Several large shells pierced them amidships and number of guns were dismounted.
 All the Russian officers interviewed assert that a large number of sub marines caused confusion and defeat. Read Admiral Enquist has cabled his arrival to the Emperor of Russia. The battleship Ohio and cruiser Cincinnati are guarding the Russian ships.

Emperor,s Mind Unchanged.

St. Petersburg, June 4.-In tho course of an interesting conversation between
 the Associated Press and one of ths | Emperor's most influential ministers, the minister declared empnatically that the Emperor had not yet changed his position with regard to the prose- cution of the war on account of the destruction of Vice-Admiral Ro5est-
 vensky's fleet. Everything depends
 on the will of my imperial master"
 the minister said. The situation Is being thoroughly discussed from all standpoints but the Emperor has as yet not given the slightest indication
 that he believes that Russia must yield"
 The minister in speaking of the possible initiation of peace negotia-
 tions expressed the personal view that no power occupied so good position as the United States through which negotiations could be begun. Dealing
 with the question of submitting the
 decision of peace or war to a national assembly. he declared that the idea was utterly impractical and unentertair- able. Neither a national assembly. which would require weeks if not months to convene, nor a zemsky ga bor could intelligently pass upon the
 question or would be in a position to idea was absurd.
 The minister stated emphatically to the Associated Press that the assem- ply contemplated by the Emperor's re-
 script would soon take definite form.

 A member of the naval staff has sug- gested that it was probable that the Russians saw Russian vessels sinking and in the confusion mistook them for Japanese ships. The foreign office and the navy department reaffirm that only three torpedo boats were lost in the battle

NebogatoR's Case.

St. Petersburg, June '3.-The state ment that the ammunition on board Rear Admiral Nebogatoffs ships was exhausted when he surrendered was re- ceived with some relief, this being one of the conditions under which, accord ing to the Russian naval regulations, a commander is allowed to surrender, the other conditions being when the crew of a vessel is so depleted as to be un- able to manage her and work her guns, and when the ship is burned to the wa ter's edge and about to sink. Never theless most of the naval men continue to be of the opinion that che seacocks should have been opened and the ship sunk Stories of mutiny on board the Russian vessels continue to circulate in the clubs and cafes, but the admiralty will not admit that 1t has received any information tending to substantiate them. The officials admit, however that some of the sailors mutinied of the coast of Madagascar, and that a number of them were shot by Rojest- vensky's orders.

GRIMES AGAINST THE CHILDREN.


The National Association of State
and Dairy Food Departments has
sounded warning against adulterated
"baby foods" and declares that last
year Az. 900 infants died from causes
primarily due to the adulteration of
food. Tits Is dreadful Indictment to
draw against any man or set of men,
and immediate action should be taken
to punish them. But there is another
fruitful source of disease and death
among children, and it is to be found
in the Ubiquitous ''sweatshop' and
child labor systems in vogue in many of
the large cities. While publicists are
decryiDg the evils of authorizations that
lead to the slaughter of innocent chill
dren, let them also turn their attentions
to these other, and equally great, evils
that are not only Strengthening thou
sands of children every year, but are
blasting the lives Of thousands of men
and women and adding daily to the
great social problems that must be set
tied if this republic is to endure.-Com-
moner.

A great many republican

populistic on the transporta.
ton question these days,
President Hill of the Great
Northern, is getting a partic.
ular skinning because he is
knocking on the Panama
Canal. Our republican
friends have all at once dis
covered that the railroads are
charging professionally Excess
sive rates. Aren't they
afraid that they will "drive
capital out of the state, ruin
business and injure the fair
name of Kansas" That's
the language they used te
employ when the democrats

the manner in which the rail
