concerning the incident before def
mite decision was reached.
Rear Admiral Train. in command OF
the United States squadron now at Ma
Mia. having heard rumors of the sight
ing of Russian warships near the IS
land of LuZon, made an investigation
with his squadron and discovered the
damaged cruisers making their way 20
port. The United States vessels, after
an exchange of salutes with Admiral
EnquiSt, in command of the russians,
escorted the three cruisers to Manila.
Officials here received the first news
of the arrival of the Russian vessels
at Manila from the Associated Press.
Soon afterward an official report was
received a the Navy Department from
Rear Admiral Train. Admiral Train
reorted that while cruising off Linga
yen Gulf this morning he sighted three
Russian vessels, the Aurora Oleg and
Jemtchug, close in shore. He said he
found many wounded on board and
escorted the vessels to Manila.
In the present circumstances the
vessels of either of the belligerent ma
lions would be permitted to remain at
neutral port only twenty-four hours;
or. if the ships were unseaworthy, only
long enough to enable them to make
the necessary temporary repairs in or
der that they might reach their near
est home port. What, if any, request
Admiral EnquiSt may make concern,
ing the disposition of the vessels is not
known here. He may ask that the
vessels be interned at Manila. Such a
request would be granted by this gov
eminent The cruisers then would be
in a position precisely similar to that
of the Russian ship Lena, which about
ten months ago was interned at San
Francisco.
Instructions were cabled to Rear Ad-
miral Train this afternoon to consider
what steps it would be necessary for
him to take in case Admiral Enquist
should request that his vessels should
be interned. Unit la full report shall
have been received from him no fur

owing to the frequent torpedo attacks
and the fact that the Russian vessels
did not carry many lights the fleet
was much separated and became in

stok. The Russians were short of
ammunition and their craftsmanship

Economy of Heat and Health.

The average humidity In artlficially
heated houses is about 80 degrees; the
average temperature, 20 to "A degrees.
1t has been found by conclusive tests
that room with a humidity of 90
degrees and temperature of 60 de-
grees seems warmer and more COM
Portable than room of II degrees of
heat and humidity Of 80 degrees. DR..
Henry NJ Smith says that if room at
6S degrees is not warm enough for any
healthy person it is because the humid
ity Is too low, and water should be
evaporated to biting the moisture up to
the right degree. In other words, wa
ter instead of coal should be used to
make rooms comfortable when the
temperature has reached GS degrees.
As water is cheaper than coal, the rule
should become a popular one.-Chicago
