Halifax, n. s., March 2S.-Two great

loaded with passengers. collided off the
harbor's entrance. Both were seriousl.r

the Partisan and the .Albano,
whose 800 passengers Were saved from
possible death at sea after the collision
between the two vessels off the harbor's
mouth by a thrilling fifteen mile race for
shallow water, showed plainly today how
serious was the accident, the Parsian rest
ing on the bottom Of her dock and the Al
bano's forepeak being full of water. -
The Partisan came UP the harbor with
a gaping hole in her starboard side from
the Albano's bow, filed gradually during
the night and at dawn her engine room
had been flooded and her fires eXtinguish-
ed, the lower deck was awash and her
keel rested on the mud. A large part OF
her cargo has been damaged by water,
but the bulk of the mail, consisting of 400
I sacks, was recovered in a dry condition.
The statements of the TWO commanders
of the vessels as to the probable cause

courts will be invoked to place the rcspon-

His Aunt, Mrs, Ely. I

Chicago, March 2S.-Ffank Rogers
who disappeared from his home insEv-
anston our years ago with his aunt,
Miss Florence Ely, returned. Young
Rogers stated that since leaving Chi
cago he has been working in Buffalo
and New York city. The police and
Others for a long time worked on the
cas- as a kidnapping mystery. The
boy now denies that he has been with
his aunt.
When he disappeared from his home
in July, 1901, his aunt, Miss Ely, who
had lived at the house of young Rog-
ers' parents. also disappeared, since
when no trace of either had been found
until he suddenly appeared in Evans
ton.
The boy had been the pet of his aunt
ever since he was a baby. So close
could scarcely allow the boy to be out
of her sight. Her affection was re-.
turned by young Rogers, and in order
to break the attachment between the
two, Mrs. Rogers decided to send her
son away to school n notified Misa
Ely of the plan.
On July Is, 1901, the boy n his aunt
left the Rogers home, presumably for
a walk. They did not return n hat

terry.
When The boy returned to Evans;
ton in search of his parents, he found
strangers living In his former home.
He then went to the home of an uncle
in the vicinity, and his parents We're
notified of the boys return. After be-
ing with his son for some time, the
father refused to make any statement
concerning the strange disappearance.
Mr.. Rogers said that a statement would
be made by him, which would clear
up the mystery.
The bow was very reticent concerns
ing his Whereabouts since his disap-
pearance. He denied that he left
Evanston in company with his aunt,
J and said that he did not know of her
disappearance until he read of it in the
papers. Che boy declares that he has
been in New York and Buffalo aver
since leaving Chicago. He has been

his story, and has never heard from
Miss ELY since he left Evanston.

ST. Petersburg, March 2S.-Stung by
wholesale criticism lately heaped upon
the war office for its unpreparedness
and incapacity in providing the Man
caurian army with men, guns and
munitions, the army organ today lays
bare what has been done since the open
ing of hostilities, giving exact figures.
10000 Men Sent.
From these it appears that up to
March Il the war office had dispatched
13.OS7 officers, 761,467 men, 146,4OS horses,
1871 guns and 3l2,321 tons Of munitions
and supplies to the front, declaring the
transportation strained the Siberian
railroad to it's utmost capacity.
The army organa admits that the army
in the far east when the war opened
was hardly worthy of the name. NO
figures are given, but it is known the
troops did not exceed $4,000 men.
Wanted to Avoid War.
The organ defends this on the ground
that the emperor desired to avoid war
and therefore refrained from sending
reinforcernents which surely would
have provoked it.
The criticism of the war Offices failS
ure adequately to supply Port Arthur
is met by the statement that it was
pr~ovisioned for a garrison OF twelve
battalions and the decision to put thirty
battalions there was taken so late that
the original calculations could not be
renledied.
The Matter of Guns.
While affirming that the quick firing
guns and field guns of the Russians
are superior to those of the Japanese,
the war office explains the misfortune
in the insufficiency Of mountain guns
as due TO the fact that when he war
broke out Russia was just adopting a
new pattern.
1t IS denied that the war office was
deceived in regard to the available
strength of the Japanese army or the
organization OF the japanese reserves;
but the army organ frankly admits
that the talents Of the officers and
the wonderful spirits Of the soldiers
were mscalculated.
Causes a Sensation.
The publication of the article has
created a sensation among militar!
men and in public circles, many of the
former censuring the general staff fol
discussing valuable military secrets
while the latter find from the figure!
q practical admission that the war ha:
cost almost half a million men il
killed, wounded. prisoners and sick, a!
the whole force effective in the ia
east is now believed not to exceed 500,
600 rneu.
