New York May 13.-''The Russian
and Japanese fleets will meet in few
days. Japan will win. The slaught-
err of men in that battle will be SO
great as to startle the civilized world.
The only redeeming feature of the
fight will be the fact that there will
be no more wars for years. The hor-
rors will be too great. Japan's de-
feat, however, would not mean Eng
lands defeat as many suppose. Jap
an was forced into this war, and has
something more than the grabbing OF
territory to fight for.
Vice Admiral Lord Charles Beres-
ford of the British navy made this
statement today, just before his de-
parture for Liverpool on the Oceanic.
The admiral had spent several days
on the battleship Missouri off Pensa-
cola with Rear Admiral Evans, and
he said he did not think the Missouri
has an equal in the world.
1.-The reason | think that Japan
will win in the coming fight, con-
tinued the admiral, is that she is
the greater gunner of the two. There
is nothing in numerical strength.
1.-The secret of success in a naval
battle lies in placing ones ships to
advantage and letting the gunnerS do

MAINTAIN A CLOSE WATCH.
Japan Will Know Exactly What The
French Do.

Toxic, May 15.-The following an
nouncement was made by the Jap
anese foreign Office today:
Since the Kamranh Bay incident
the French government has instruct
ed both the civil and military officials
in Indo-China to maintain a close
watch on the coast of French terri
tory and to warn belligerant ships not
to enter French waters. When it was
reported that the third Russian squad
ron, commanded by Rear Admiral
Nebogatoff, was approaching French
waters the French government again
instructed the naval authorities to
maintain a close watch and take eff
fective measures with all their power
to prevent a violation of neutrality
and it simultaneously notified the Rus
sian government.
The French government has noti-
fed the Japanese legation at Paris
that it has received a telegraph re-
port that no Russian ships were sight

Russia Is Steadily Getting Nearer to
india.
BETTER STOP IT ALL NOW.
This Is Lord Bafour's ADVICE to Com
mons-Army Available If Repelling
of an Invasion Becomes an Actual
Necessity.

London, May 15.-In the House Of
Commons today Premier Balfour said
that having regard for the changes in
the sea power of other nations, re-
distribution of the fleet and army was
desirable for colonial defense, and the
committee on defense of the admir-
atty had concluded that the fleet and
army should be concentrated in the
center of the empire from which they
could be distributed as necessity
arose. An invasion of India here has
been the dream of many military lead
ers. The progress of Russia towards
the Afghanistan frontier and the con
struction of strategic positions com
PEELED the government to consider
with all seriousness what it's great
military neighbors could do. No sur
prise was possible in an invasion OF
India. Any collision of magnitude be-
tween the two powers must depend
upon the rapidity of railroad construc-
ton. General Lord Kitchener's view
was that in addition to the ordinary
drafts eight infantry divisions and
other corresponding arms should be
available for the defense of India in
the first year of war.
If Great Britain permitted the slow
absorption of Afghanistan in a way
similar to that in which the central
Asian states had been absorbed and
if Russia's strategic railroads were al
lowed to creep closer and closer to
the frontier Great Britain would ulti-
mately pay for her supineness, by
helping to keep on foot an army far
larger than could be contemplated
with equanimity and she would be
faced with the greatest military prob
lens which had ever confronted the
British government.
Mr.. Balfour remarked that the de-
velopment of Russia towards India
! has from time to time caused great
alarm. Great Britain had in vain by
diplomatic means endeavored to pre-
vent Russia's expansion which must
now be taken as an accepted fact AL
though invasion of India was much
talked of by Russian officers he did
not believe that it formed any part of
the scheme of the Russian govern
ment.

SEA FIGHT TO
END THE WAR

the rest Japan will win the fight
by getting the superior position and
firing the greater number of telling
shots, even though Russia has the
greater number of ships.
1--WE are not likely to have any
great war for many years after this.
England and America hold the secret
of peace If these two nations should
mass their fleets no other country or
group of countries would dare fight
them.
England and America must come
together in that question. War with
all its shocking loss of life has be-
gun to make thinking people ponder
A united fleet, one bunting, one Ian
guage, one spirit of patriotism, com
bination of the only two nations OF
the world which have volunteer ma
vies and armies, instead of con-
script system, would be able to keep
the peace.
''Of course there are times when
a wave of opinion will take posses
sion of a people and they will de-
mand war. The other fellow has to
look out then. That is when the
honor of the country is at stake, and
it is the only dangerus war wave of
the lot. -

MARVELLOUS GIFT OF BIRDS.
Homing Pigeons Able to Make Their
Roosts In Pitchy Darkness.

Although birds are not placed near
the summit line Of evolution, their
ability to fly gives them advantage
over nearly all the mammalia.
Their mysterious power of chang
ing their palarity or weight in order
to dive in water or fly has been often
discussed and the almost incredible
velocity of their motion when migrat-
ing, sometimes amounting to four
miles a minute for vast distances, has
no parallel among other animals. A
series of careful trials with carrier
pigeons reported from France shows
apparently without doubt their pos
session of a highly developed sense
of direction.
1t was supposed that homing
pigeons depended upon sight to find
their way, but these experiments have
been conducted between Ceremes and
Roam in the darkness of night. In
twenty minutes the first bird. dis
patched at 10 p. m. reached its roost,
a distance of seventeen miles being
traversed. Half of the number arriv-
ed before midnight and the remand.
er followed in a few hours.

KEEPING IT QUIET.
Russia Is Not Very Proud Of XIII the
Jews,

st. Petersburg, May IS. - The No
vosti, the Jewish organ, claims to
have information showing that the
massacre of Jews at Zhitomir was
regularly organized. The govern
ment papers are not permitted to
print details of the recent attacks on
Jews.
At the ministry of the interior no
report had been received up to Z
cclockethis evening. A brief dispatch
announced the published reports were
exaggerated and added that all was
quiet there today and the local au-
thorities had carried out the instruc-
tions sent by Interior Minister Boul-
igan to maintain order. Troops had
been brought to Zhitomir from Vas
sikh and notice has been given II
any further attempts are made to mo-
lest the Jews the soldiers would fire
on those caught disturbing them.
The minister of the interior says
a special circular was issued to the
governors April % in view of the pro-
paganda spread by the so-called mon
archist party against the educated
Jews and other classes accused OF
stirring up revolt and revolution, in
structing the governors to take special
precautions to prevent race or class
strife.
The committee of ministers has
asked the emperor to authorize the
project of demonstrating crown lands
by peasants.

Driving Storm Keeps Chicago Strikers
from Action.
INVESTIGATION is PROGRESSING.
Master of Chancery is Examining
Witnesses with a view to lniunc-
ton VioIations-Non-Un Drivers
Testify Regarding Assaults.

Chicago, May 13.-The teamsters'
strike was practically without incl
dent Driving storms of wind and
rain which swept the streets at fire.
quent intervals had the effect OF driv-
ing the majority of the pickets from
their posts, and there was practically
no disturbances of any kind in the
business section of the city. On the
outskirts, however there were few
attacks upon the drivers OF delivery
wagons, but with the exception of one
colored man, who was knocked sense
less by a stone, nobody was injur-
ed.
The most important part OF the
strike developments were the exam
ination of witnesses this afternoon
by Master in Chancery Sherman, who
is taking testimony relative to the al
legged violation of the federal injunc-
tons granted in favor of the employ
ers' association and of the seven eX-
press companies.
.Adolph Pfell, for eleven years an
employee of the United States Express
Company but now a striker, refused
to answer questions on the ground
that he might incriminate himself.
The queries put to him by the attor-
neys for the employers association
covered the grounds of the cause of
the strike and whether or not the
officials of his union ordered or adj
vised him to strike. To all of these
questions Attorney Leboskey, for the
defendants, made strenuous objec-
tons. with the result that there oc-

Mayer, acting for the plaintiffs, num-

BOTH SIDES CLAIM GAINS.
Employers State That More Teams
Delivered Goods.

Chicago, May 10.-Both employers
and strikers claim gains today in the
transfers strike. The employers de-
clare that they have gained a decid-
ed advantage in the number of wag'
ons sent out and the amount of bust
ness transacted The strikers claim
is based upon the fact that $50 driv.
ers for the various furniture dealers
ing and also $50 paint workers en-
plOyed in the Heath & Milligan COM
pany. The strike of the furniture
dealers drivers was foreshadowed on
Saturday when at conference of the
furniture dealers association it was
declared that their men must make
deliveries irrespective of strike con
ditions. They today ordered the men
to carry goods to the boycotted houses
and the strike tomorrow will be the
result. The paint workers of Heath
& Milligan are the first members OF
any union not a member of the team
ster organization to go on strike In
support of the teamsters.
The State street department stores
and large dry goods houses sent out
nearly their full compliment of de-
livery wagons and throughout the day
transacted business on almost a nor
NAL basis. Fifteen hundred wagons
manned by non-union men were oper
ated from State street today and the
number will be increased tomorrow.

is IGNORING DEPARTMENT.
Lenapah Oil and Gas Company Deal
ing Directly With Indaps.

Muskogee, I. T. May 9.-The Lena
pah Oil and Gas Company, of Lena
pah, I. T., is leasing Cherokee lands
for oil and gas purposes, direct from
the allottees and filing the same in
the United States court at Nowata
The company is going ahead on the
assumption that, in accordance with
the recent ruling of the United States
supreme court, where an Indian re-
ceives a patent to his land, he then
becomes a citizen of the United
States and is no longer ward of the
nation. The company has had but
one lease approved by the depart
ment and is now proceeding to exc
cute leases without the approval OF
Secretary Hitchcock.
It is understood that a representa-.
tice of the government will be sent
to Lenapah to arrest any person who
attempts to drill on lease not regu.
larly approved by the department.

The Result Of the Tornado Which
Swept Marquette.
ITS PATH 900 FEET IN WIDTH.
People of the Kansas Village Were in
Their Beds When the Storm Struck
in all its Fury and They Had no
Warning.

Marquette, Kan, May 11.-Coming
at an hour when the surrounding COM
munity were asleep the tornado which
struck the little village at about mid
night Monday night, killing 20 and
injuring A, did it's worst. OF the in
jured So were seriously hurt and some
OF them may die. During the day
Carl Warnquist and Mrs. ]. A. Carl
son died of their wounds. Several of
I the others are suffering from broken
limbs and internal injuries.
The havoc wrought by the storm is
appalling but must be seen to be I'M
derstood. With one-third of the resi-
dences of the city in ruins, the re-
naming two-thirds are filled with
dead and injured. Houses have been
turned into hospitals and the few
store rooms into morgues.
The people of Marquette had no
warning of the approaching storm
and had they felt any anxiety it
would have been relieved by the rain
storm that preceded the wind storm,
the only warning, which came too
late. A glare of lightning, peal of
thunder, the sound of cracking tim
hers and of falling walls and the
storm had passed. In its trail 800
feet wide through the residence dis
trict it left scene of death and de-
struction. The first place struck by
the storm was the large farm dwell
ing of OlOf Hanson a little less than
three miles south of Marquette. 1t
was one of the largest farm houses
in the community surrounding the
town. The wind tore it to pieces,
killing Hanson and his wife and one
son and seriously injuring five more
children. The tornado pursued a
northerly course and on its way
struck the home of Andrew Peterson,
which it demolished, injuring Peter
son and wife.
LATER:-The revised list of the dead
and injured posted on the main street
shows a total of 81 dead and so seri-
ously injured and it is believed to be
absolutely correct. Every person in
the stricken community not in the list
has been accounted for.

Plenty of Food, But There is Need
For Ready Money.

committee, headed by E. Dowden,
chairman. has been formed and the
following appeal for outside aid has
been issued and handed to the Asso-
ciated Press representative, with the
request that it be given publicity:
Ito the People of the United
States: = This place was almost to-
tally obliterated by cyclone on the
evening of May 10. The people here
are dividing their all, but have not
enough to relieve the pressing neces-
sity. Neighboring towns are strenu-
ously supplying us with hospital
supplies and food. Fully 300 fami-
lies have been ruined by the storm;
1900 people are more or less depend
ent on the good will of the generously
inclined to tide them over the pres
ent distress. Money is urgently need
ed. Property loss, including crops,
stock, homes and other property, will
reach over half a million dollars, with
a portion of the stricken district yet
to be heard from. Almost continuous
rains since the cyclone have rendered
many of the roads almost impossible.
The stricken people have helped the
less fortunate to the extent of $500 in
cash, besides dividing food, provisions
and clothing with those who lost theiI
all.
In view of these circumstances
we ask assistance from the American
people.
