Commander Tanaka Tells Of His
COuntrymen'S Bravery.

Commander Morihide Tanaka, OF the japanese
navy, who arrived few days ago from the Far
East, sails to-day the Teutonic for England.
Commander Tanaka, who is thirty-eight years
Old has been in the navy sixteen years. He
had a post in the naval operations from the be-
ginning of hostilities until he returned to Japan
in October. He arrived at San Francisco on the
steamer China on December 80. He ecame
directly to New-York, and on Saturday last went
to Washington He was received by President
Roosevelt on Sunday.
Seen at the Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday on
his return from the capital Commander Tanaka
said: Il was deeply impressed by the cordialty
of the President, who is obviously strong char
acter. | count ii of the highest honors OF
my life to have been received by the President
Commander Tanaka was in command Of the
cruiser Tokiwa and took part in the first two
blockades Of the harbor of Port Arthur. His
vessel was of the four that constituted the
independent squadron under Nice-AdmIral ham-
imura, which intercepted the Russian Vladt-
vostok squadron in the Corean Straits on August
II and succeeded in sinking the Rurik and so
badly damaging the Rossa and Gromoboi that
they were barely able TO reach EladlNOSJok. IN
this engagement Commander Tanaka was on
board the IzumO. the flagship of the Japanese
squadron. subsequently,, said the commander
Il was returned with my vessel to Port Arthur,
where I had another two months OF service On
his own achievements he maintains a dignined
silence but he is nevertheless, credited with
exhibitions of conspicuous bravery on several
occasions Speaking Of the conduct OF the men
of the navy he said: The opportunities for
rendering signal service not of such frequent
occurrence as in the army. The field for in
dividuaI action is more restricted. Each man,
Of course, does his duty in the place to which he
is assigned. Whenever. however, there was a
call for men to engage In any hazardous un-
dertaking there was a prompt response. II
only half dozen volunteers were needed from
each vessel in the fleet, every man was willing
to go, and there was clamor for the privilege
OF course in the attacks the vessels of the
enemy by the use of torpedoes and the various
means employed for their destruction there have
been many instances of individual heTOism.'

EXPLAINS ACCIDENT.
Letter Tells of Death of J.. J. Dickson
 In New Orleans.

c. R. West, a relative of J. J. Dickson, who shot and killed himself in New Or leans recently, has received the follow ing letter from Mrs. B. E. White, with whom Dickson was boarding. giving all the details of the accident:
 Dear Sir: Your letter of the 18th inst. to hand. In answer to your inquiry about the questioned letter will say there was no letter found and that report given by the papers as to a letter being found in MT Dckson's room addressed to his wife is i--correct. What was found was an envelope in his room backed to Mrs. J. J. Dickson, but with nothing enclosed in it.
 'The envelope was found by me on the dresser in his bedroom, with other sta tionery, beside his grip. There was also pepcl with soiled rags wrapped around it. and an oil can which he had borrowed from me At the time he asked me for the oil he had the revolver in his hand saying it was rusty and that he wanted to clean it, all this proving that the shoot ing was purely accidental. His actions previous to this were in no way suspi- cious.
 '"The statement in the papers to the effect that on my entering the room I found the curtains in flames Is only par tially true The curtains caught fire ac- cidentaly from the gas light. which is placed on the edge of the window frame, earlier in the evening and was extinguish- ed by MT Dickson himself, as he told me of the incident later.
 When the shot was heard. knowing that MT. Dickson was cleaning the pis- tol. I rushed up to his room and found him lying on the floor beside the dresser, where he had been cleaning the gun. with a bullet wound through his side. The ball passed by the side of the heart an1 penetrated one lung
 "I summoned the ambulance and they removed him to the Charity hospital, where he died a short time afterwards The accident happened at 9:30 o'clock Tuesday evening, and at about II 80 o'clock he was dead. The Masons took charge of the body
 Tuesday morning he had told me he intended leaving for Nashville the follow ing day. he was waiting for a check from his-wfe. Sincerely yours.
