nor Morton reconvened the legislature
or the State in order to obtain the au-
thority to borrow 100000 for the
provisioning and care of the troops.
He displayed the greatest energy In

He gave permission to citizens OF
Indiana to raise troops in Kentucky
and he allowed Kentucky regiments to
be recruited from the population Of
two OF the southern counties OF his
own State.
When, in 1862, the legislature of the
State became Democratic, the Repub.
ncan members Withdrew, leaving both
houses without quorum. In order to
carry on the State government Morton
took the extreme measure, and one
that brought him into the greatest
odtum, the appointment Of a bureau
Of finance for the disbursement Of the
funds. They appropriated more than
a million dollars. The Supreme Court
condemned the proceedings Of the
Governor, but the State subsequently
honored them as war measure.

Togo sunk or captured twenty-five
Russian warships. Only the little
cruiser Almaz and q few destroyers
escaped to Vladivostok. Vice Admiral
Ro5estvensky, seriously wounded, was
taken prisoner, as was Rear Admiral
Nebogatoff. Rear Admiral Voelkersam
and Rear Admiral Enquist were killed.
The loss of life was frightful More
than 5000 Russian sailors were killed
or drowned, and more than 5000 were
taken prisoners. Togo's battleships
and cruisers escaped practically un-
scathed, and he lost only three destroy
ers in the battle. About 200 of his
men were killed and wounded.
Togo's victory has made his coun-
try for the future securely immune
from all danger of wanton aggression
by occidental nations. There is no

comes of very old samurai family of

Japanese Naval Academy and sent him
to this country to study. Before he
became rear admiral he commanded
the cruiser Matsushima and the first
class battle-ship Yashima, sunk year
before. During the war with China
he was naval attache at the Japanese
embassy in Paris. Since his promotion
he has been chief of the bureau Of

1.-THE Battle of the Sea Of Japan" Is
given to the great naval fight in which
Russia's sea power was destroyed. So
complete was his victory and SO firm
ly has he established Japanese naval
power in Asiatic Pacific waters that it
may we'll be that never again will
sea fight of comparable magnitude be
fought In the same sea and that this
battle will indeed remain forever
"the" battle Of the Sea of Japan. Such
an overwhelming victory for Togo no
naval expert had dared predict. 1t
will be the wonder and the study Of
coming generations of sailor men.
Doubtless it has furnished material
which will go far toward deciding the
future of the battle ship and the tor
pedo boat.
The Russian Baltic fleet sailed from
Madagascar March 16, ordered by the
Gear to retrieve the disaster Of Muk-
den by destroying the Japanese feet
and regaining control of the far east
