Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-Light was to-
day thrown on the present extraordi-
nary situation in Japan by World cor
respondent, who sailed from Japan just
before the peace ENJOYS met in Ports
mouth.
This correspondent has special and
minute knowledge of the conditions in
the Japanese army at the present time
1.-THE Mutsihito dynasty is in peril"
he said. when 1 left Japan the army
and the populace generally were clam
oring for great money indemnity as
the first element in the terms OF peace.
1 am speaking very modestly when
say that a popular revolution, backed
by the army, is the most likely thing in
the situation.
1.-The Japanese army Is supreme in
the empire. The military power has
reduced the civil power to compara-
tive impotence.
'The emperor has become a mere go
between, WITH an arrogant IIllllIdry
aristocracy on one side and frighten-
ed and demoralized civilian class on the
other side. Just before I left Japan it
was common talk there that if the
emperor and his civil advisers should
yield to foreign pressure and humili-
ate japan by a diplomatic surrender to
Russia there would be popular upris-
ing supported by a revolt in the army
and the emperor would be deposed.
The World would not be surprised
to see Japan return to a military sho-
gunate and the emperor reduced again
to the position of a powerless religious
flgurehead."

What Japan Has Won


The mikado's empire has secured
a place among the great powers of
the world.
Japan has wrested from Russia
the control of the Lao Tung pen
insula. including Port Arthur,
Dalny and the Blonde and Elliott
islands, thus at one stroke getting
revenge for past indignities, and
what, to her. are the prime fruits
of victory.
BY Japan's victories the empire
has forced Russia to consent to
the open door for all nations in
Manchuria.
A "preponderant influence" in
Korea has been secured. an infiu-
ence which admits the right of ia
pan to give military and financial
advice to the emperor of Korea.
Japan obtains the retrocession
to China of the Eastern railroad,
which runs south from Harbin to
Port Arthur, a change of control
which will aid Japan in financial
sense.
Japan has forced the limitation
of the Chinese concession of 1896,
under which the "cut-off" through
northern Manchuria was built to
connect the trans Siberian and the
Ussuri railroad so as to provide
for the retention and ownership OF
the line by Inc Chinese Eastern.
The Japanese treasury is to re-
ceive a liberal sum In payment for
the care of Russian prisoners.
Japan's fishermen secure the
right TO ply their trade in the wa
ters of the Russian littoral from
Vladivostok north to the Bering
sea.

What Russia Has Lost

Russia has lost it's position as a
ranking naval power. It's fleet in
the Pacific Is cut to pieces and its
great Baltic fleet has been de-
stroyed
Russia has been routed from the
Liao Tung peninsula, from Dalny,
the Blonde and Elliott islands, and
from Port Arthur, the great har-
Dor fortress, whose strength and
position kSve the czar position
of dominance in eastern affairs.
The southern half of Saghalien
island is lost to Russia, an island
over which a few weeks ago she
had full sway and ownership.
Russia has been compelled, by
force of Japanese arms, to consent
that all nations shall have full
trade facilities in Manchuria, a
privilege which she formerly jeal-
ously withstood.
The czar's government refused
before the war to recognize any
right of Japan to seek influence
and trade in Korea. AS result of
the war. Japan is given prepon-
derant influence in the Hermit
kingdom, with full power to adj
wise the emperor on all matters
pertaining to commerce and to
war
Russia has recognized Chinese
ownership in the Eastern railroad
connecting Port Arthur with Har-
bin. This involves a retrocesslon
to China by Russia of property
rights, and gives to Japan an OPP
portunity to recoup her finances.
The czar loses all influence in
Manchuria, a province which his
government was absorbing.

Berlin Government Making Prepara-
tions for Possible Outbreak
BY Associated Press.
BERLIN, Sept. At was officially
bulletined today that sixty-five cholera
cases and twenty-three deaths have
occurred in Prussia. OF this number
ten cases and three deaths were re-
ported UP to noon today. The number
of cases reported by private sources
since the official bulletin was made up
indicates a total of fully seventy.
While anxiety is not yet the word to
describe the feeling of the imperial
health officers, concern over the chol-
era situation does exist. Most of the
new cases do not break out among the
quarantined persons, but are suddenly
heard of in detached farm houses or
villages not near the Vistula. Hence
the inference is that infected districts
are widening slowly and the measures
to hold the disease strictly within the
existing boundaries have not been fully
successful.
These measures, however, are being
sharply increased. Orders were issued
today to close all refreshment houses
along the Vistula except those located
in towns. These small restaurants
and bars are frequented by rivermen
who are the class most likely to be in
fected.
In anticipation of cholera reaching
Berlin the government yesterday began
the erection near Berlin of two bar
racks for cholera patients and also es-
tablished an inspection station for river
traffic.

STORM RACES ON

MANY LIVES KNOWN TO HAVE
BEEN LOST
SHIPPING SUFFERS GREATLY
Tragedies of Sailor Life Relieved by
Tales of Matchless Herolsm
Displayed In Stirring
Rescues
SHIPPING SUFFERS GREATLY
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. 4.-Eighteen
or twenty lives were lost and property
valued at half million dollars sacri-
feed in the furious storm that swept
over Lake Superior on Sunday and
Sunday night.
The gale was the most destructive to
lake shipping that has been expert
enced in many years. Besides the wreck
of the steel steamer Sevona, which
broke in two on Sand Island reef, seven
of the crew losing their lives, the
schooner Pretoria of Bay City, Mich,
the largest sailing ship on fresh wa
ter and carrying a crew of ten men,
foundered.
Five Of her crew of ten were drowned
by the capsizing of the yawl in which
the crew took refuge when the boat be-
gan to sink. The five survivors were
rescued by the heroic efforts of John
Irvine, keeper of the Outer Island light,
and his assistant. The crew lost con-
troll of the yawl and all were spilled
into the lake. Five were drowned i'm

overturned boat. They were 800 feet
from shore. John Irvine, the light
keeper, observing the plight of the
sailors, launched his own boat in the
boiling sea with the help of his assist
ant and saved them at great risk.
The Olive Jeanette it is also believed,
went to the bottom about ten miles
from Portage entry. A mass of wreck
age was sighted by the steamer juan
ita near that point and, although the
identity of the ship has not been com
rletely established, there seems little
doubt that it was the Olive Jeanette.
This schooner was in tow of the
steamer L. r. Doty when the latter
vessel was lost, with her entire crew,
or Lake Michigan few years ago.
The storm at times reached the pro-
portions of a hurricane and the
staunchest new steel vessels were
forced to run for shelter in more or
less battered condition. The new steel
steamer Stackhouse arrived at the 500
on her first trip with her hatch covers
so badly sprung that water poured con-
tinuously into the hold. One of the
crew was washed overheard. The
whaleback steamer Samuel Mather
also lost one of her crew overheard.
The terrific battering the steel steam
ers received in the storm givs rise to
the gravest fears for the safety of many
wooden ships which have not yet re-
ported. and the record of death and de-
struction may reach much greater pro-
portions than the present estimates.
The monetary loss of the Sevona is
placed at $4,000, while that of the
Pretoria is estimated at $150,000.

Thirty-one Russian emigrants who

DIR. Otto Ecker, a director of the

otherwise the captain would not dis
patch the ship because of the danger of
having to bring back a thousand emf

He said 1T is to the interest of the
company to take no risk Of shipping
the disease to America. AS soon as

slams we Immediately wired all our
agents to refuse further bookings of
emigrants. This order will remain in
force until we are satisfied the danger
