Upon the request of France the Gar
ordered Admiral Rojestvensky to re-
move his fleet Immediately from French
territorial waters. Subsequently the
French government was officially inform
ed that the Russians sailed from Kam'
ranh Bay Saturday. Their destination
is unknown. The Japanese had secured
indisputable evidence that the Russians
were in Kamranh Bay and receiving sup
plies there.
Admiral Togo's main squadron will

Cars Orders Promptly 0beyed.

Paris (By Cable).-The French gov
eminent has been officially informed that
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky's squadron
left Kamranh Bay Saturday. The des-
tination of the squadron is unknown.
Officials here maintain that the gravity
of the Franco Japanese issue over neu-
trality has been considerably relieved by
the vigorous measures which France
adopted. Emperor Nicholas orders to
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky to leave
French waters are the direct result.
To have the Emperor give decisive
order it is held here, signifies that such
order must be obeyed, whereas Vice
Admiral Rojestyensky had exercised his
personal discretion as to observing or
ders emanating from the Russian Admir-
atty concerning French waters off the
coast of Madagascar
The Journal DIES Debats publishes
long editorial article on the Franco
Japanese incident, which says:
"While .Iapan's anxiety is naturally
great over the approach of the Russian
squadron, yet Japanese public opinion
seems to have been proof of too much
emotion and sensitiveneSs. The facts
concerning the presence OF the Russian
squadron in Kamranh Bay have not been
exactly known and nothing indicated
our intention to disregard known facts
Nevertheless, Japan shows great public
effervescence The japanese press COM
ments freely, and public meetings have
been organized to denounce our supposed
hostile attitude toward Japan. 1t is sur
prising that such things should occur i'll
a country where one hardly expects to
see street opinion substituted for d.
plomacy."

AT the popular theaters and music

Recently the performers did not hest

discovered rigid instructions were iSsueo
to the police not to allow single encore

by the censorship.
In order to insure prompt action IN
case of demonstrations the governors ana

Japs Have Dots on Russians.

Toxic (Bv Cablc).-The Navy Dc
partment has issued the following state
ment of ndsputable witnesses who PEI
sonally observed and report as follows
about the Russian second Pacific squad
ron in Kamranh Bay:
1.-TWO cruisers, one with three mdSts
and two tunnels, of the Dmltrl Donskol
class. the other with two mastS and three
tunnels, were seen cruising outside OF
the harbor. To four-mastcd merchant
men and a funnel steamer were an
chored outside the northern entrance OF
the harbor
give vessels resembling battleships
were anchored inside the harbor.
1.-TWO batteships with two maStS and
three tunnels, flying admrals' flags, were
anchored inside the harbor.
"Six warshipS, anchored in single for
nation, Law outside the harbor, off its
southern entrance.
Heavy smoke was seen arising inside
the harbor."
Although the report does not say so,
it is believed that Read Admiral Rojest-
yensky is using the harbor TO clean his
ships; to COAL adjust his torpedoes, clean
his guns, prepare ammunition and receive
fresh stores.
The Japanese newspapers continue
their unfriendly comment OF the French
government over the Kamranh Bay in
cident, despite the efforts of the con-
servatives toward repression, pending the
result of negotiations. Popular feeling
is growing more intense The govefn-
ment continues to withhold the CORE
spondence with France regarding the
affair.

CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
Weekly Bulletin Issued By the Weather
Bureau.

Washington, D. c., (SpeciaD.-Cro
reports from all sections of the country
are summarized in the weekly bulletin
Of the Weather Bureau as follows:
Oven nearly the whole of the coun-
try the week ended April II was abnor-
mally cold and unfavorable for germina-
lion and growth In Western North Da-
kota the temperature fell nearly to zero
on the 10th and on this and the follow
ing date exceptionally low temperatures
for the season occurred throughout the
country east of the Rocky Mountains,
freezing temperatures occurring as Tar
south as the northern portions OF Ala
5ama and Georgia and Central South
Carolina, with light to heavy frosts in the
central portion of the East Gulf States
and light frost at Jacksonville. The
damaging effects of this cold period,
which came at the close of the week,
are not fully covered in the reports coli
Iected at the climate and crop centers
On the 18TH and used in the preparation
Of this bulletin. Heavy rains were un.
favorable in the South Atlantic and
Central Gulf States, while the need OF
rain is beginning to be felt in portions
of the Lower Missouri Valley and on
the extreme North Pacific Coast. The
temperature conditions on the PACING
Coast were unfavorable.
While complaining has continued IN
Kansas. Missouri and Southern Illinois,
none has been planted farther north nor
in the Upper Ohio Valley and Middle
States. Preparations for planting have
been active in the central valleys, where
planting will be vigorously pushed as
soon as temperature conditions are tav-
orable. In the South Atlantic and East
Gulf States planting is about finished
and early corn is being cultivated.
Winter wheat continues in promising
condition generally throughout the coun-
try, but is beginning to need rain IN
portions of Kansas and Michigan.
Very slow progress was made with
spring wheat seeding over the northern
portion of the spring wheat region, as
this work could be prosecuted only i'll
the afternoons on account OF low tenn
peratures. The early sown spring wheat
does not appear to have sustained III
Jury from recent cold, except in Ne
braska, where some fields were slightly
damaged.
Dat seeding was also delayed in the
Dakotas, Minnesota lake region and
portions of the Middle Atlantic States.
While growth of the early sown has
been checked and some injury sus-
tanned in Nebraska, the general situation
respecting this crop continues promising.
While fruit must necessarily have sus-
tanned injury from the severe cold dur
ing the latter part of the week in the
Central and Southern districts, it IS
probable that in the more northerly Sec
tons to the eastward of the Mississippi
River the damage has been less serious.
In New England and the northern por-
ton of the Lake Region it is probable
that no serious injury has been done.

BIG BLAZE AT NASHVILLE.
Main Bulldlng of Vanderbilt University Is
DESTROYED.

Nashville, Tenn (SpeciaD.-The main
building of Vanderbilt University was
Quilted by fire, causing loss OF about
100000. The fire originated in the
second story of the building from de-
fective fue. A high wind was blowing,
and in a few minutes the structure was
a mass of flames. On account of made
quate water supply the hremen expert
enced much difficulty in fighting the fire:
The building was of brick and OF
splendid proportions. 1t was built in
1874 at a cost of $4,000, the architect
being Col. William c. Smith, Of Nash
Vile, who met his death in the Philip
pines while leading the First Tennessee
Regiment in battle. There was $4,000
