TRIBUTE TO RUSSIANS.
Tokyo Naval Official Recounts Stories
of Big Sea Battle.
.ssociafed Press.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
TOKYO, July 9.-An officer of the naval
staff has made a statement in which he
pays high tribute to some of the Russian
officers participating in the battle of the
Sea of Japan. His statement follows:
There We're several Russian officers
whose conduct in the recent battle deserves
to be held high as model and example for
all naval officers. Among them the most
noteworthy was the conduct of Capt. Rodio-
noff, commander Of the Nakhimofr. His
gallantry is as praiseworthy that of
Commander Hrose. During the first day
the fire of our main squadron and sustained
serious damage.
During the night she was made the OBJ
ject of severe torpedo attacks and finally,
completely disabled drifted close to Tsus-
hima. The vessel sinking and Capt.
Rodionof sent seventy of the crew to land
at Tsushima. remaining aboard himself
with his chief navigator. When the Japa-
nese approached the sinking vessel they
asked the captain to leave the vessel, but
he refused The japanese boarded the YES
sci and endeavored to drag him into a
boat, but he resisted. The ship was listing
badly and threat tened momentarily to plunge
into the sea.
THE japanese were forced to draw off
and the captain went below to there meet
and our men thought the gallant officer was
drowned. But Providence willed otherwise.
We found the captain and navigator float
ing in the water locked In each others arms.
They had embraced at what they thought
was the moment of death and were partly
unconscious when we rescued them.
There was dramatic scene when the
Monomach went down The Sado Maru,
which survived the remarkable experience
with the Nladivostok squadron, in which
the Hitachi Maru was sunk, came upon
some of the crew of the Monomach and
rescued them. Among them was an en-
gineer officer, who died, and the officers of
the Sado Maru gave him a military funeral
from the deck. Later the Sado picked up
the Monomach and getting line to her en-
deavored to tow her to Tsushima The
Monomach was leaking badly and the at
tempt to tow her was a failure.
Suddenly there was a great explosion
aboard the Monomach and she began to
settle in the water. Seeing that she was
going down. Captain Kamaya ordered the
men of the Sado Maru to line the decks
and calling the buglers directed them to
sound taps. 1t was a pretty tribute to the
ship which had been CALAMITY fought and
to the men who gave up their lives in her.

they argued that as long as he held a fed
eral appointment they would have full
sway in this state. But now that he has
returned to his native heath, the state
house ring has begun to tremble. They are
urging Bob Taylor and Carmack to get
together. They are calling loudly on the
independent democracy of Knoxville and
other portions of the state to get together,
for there is trouble in the air. They see
that the Independent papers of the state
are taking up the cry of Evans and
clean government on business principles.
The democratic ring Is trying hard to
convince the republicans that Evans Is not
the man for them TO nominate. They pre-
tend that Representative Brownlow would
not support him and declare that they
would be glad to gee him nominated be-
couse he is a "carpet-ba gger."
Will Have Brownlow's Support.
That Mr.. Evans will not receive the sup
port of Mr. Brownlow is characterized by
the latter's friends as bosh. The repub-
lican national committeeman has had sew
eral contests with Mr.. Evans In the party
and has nearly always been successful. He
carries no malice in his heart and will see
to 1t that Evans gets the largest vote ever
cast for man in that end of the state
Mr.. Brownlow is a politician, and. like the
old parson, never evades a fight; but, after
the fight is over, he battles for principle
OF the republican party. he would show the
world that he is big enough to forget petty
quarrels and work to redeem the state from
the ring that has long infested Nash
vile.
The talk about Evans being a carpet
Dagger emanates from politicians. He
came to this state and settled in Chatta-
nooga nearly forty years ago. His children
first saw the light of day at the foot of
Lookout mountain. His business successes
have all been laid within that city's border.
His fame as a clean, courageous business
man in his adopted city elected him gov
ernor of Tennessee. 1t gave him a national
reputation and caused him to receive more
than 800 votes in st. Louis in 1896 for the
republican vice presidential nomination. In
his race for governor he carried Chatta-
nooga and Hamilton county by 2,150 votes,
whereas the county goes democratic oftener
than it goes republican.
With Evans as their standard-bearer, the
republicans believe the state will al once
be set @ablaze with enthusiasm. 1t would
bring back recollectons of Etheridge. May
nard, Parson, Brownlow, Ishamly, Harris
and John Bell when every civil district
was contested, and bonfire was to be seen
in each for ten days before every election.

him unpopular and would spoil his useful
ness "
The slangy clerk who told The Star man
the incidents mentioned may have stretched
the long bow trifle but 1t is very doubtful
If such is the case. The average clerk who
isn't afraid of his life will frankly admit
that there is about as much esprit de corps
in the government departments these days
there is in a drove of porkers. making a
forced march. There is a whole lot of dust
flying and good deal of grunting going
on, but progress isn't noticeably swift.
To whisper the of King Graft IN
this or in almost any other department just
now Is to subject half the employees within
hearing distance to attacks of appoplexy or
heart failure. and to summon the other half
to the spot for further details. That Is
one of the effects of the scandal-hysteria
proposition, and there are others quite as
serious. 1t is hoped by great many per-
sons in and out of the government ranks
that the department service and the de-
partment personnel will return to a normal
state without undue delay
