According to reports in circulation
in Moscow, Russia, Monday there has
been a fierce fight between mutinOus
troops and loyals on the outside of the
town, in which the authorities were
compelled to use artillery to put down
the rebellion. + The authorities abso-
lutely decline to discuss the matter.
The report originates from the fact
that about o'clock Sunday evening
rifle firing by volleys was heard, which
increased in violence as the moments
went by, and was soon added to by the
loud notes of field guns in action. It
has been rumored for several days
that the garrison of the city was on
the point of mutiny.
Fear Outrages at Odessa.
1t is reported that the Odessa police

they are taking no steps to curb the

many of the names so selected were

The Court heard the testimony Of
several witnesses relative to the man
ner of selecting the trial jurors for
the -ounty for the year in question,
and then made his finding and deliv-
cred his decision on the motion as
follows:
From the testimony produced here
on the hearing Of the challenge, the
Court finds that all of the persons
whose names were put on the jury list
were selected by the Board Of Coun-
ty commissioners; that none of them
were selected by Mr.. Dawley as al
legged in the challenge and also find
that it is not true that selections were
not made from old jury lists, although
=. jury list had been used by the
Com missioners for the purpose OF
finding out the names, it would have
been perfectly proper. The book
and it was proper for the commits
sioners to consult that book l do
not find that-althOugh Mr.. Dawley
in certain cases said that certain
mea would be good jurymen; l do
not find that in any case the Com
missioners failed to exercise their
cwn judgment in making up the list
ere has been no injury shown to
the defendants. For these reasons
there has been no material departure
rom the forms prescribed by the stat
ute. The challenge is disallowed'
We have carefully reviewed the
transcript of the evidence in the rec
ord upon the motion, and think the
same fully supports the findings and
conclusions of the trial court.
Mr. Dawley was the clerk of the

Aoard of County Commissioners. He
had kept a record of jury service
which covered period of nearly ten
years. Although he could not legally
select nor properly urge the selection
Of any juror, we see no objection to

International Morality.

It is a mistake, and 1t betrays a spirit
Of foolish cynicism, 10 maintain that all
international governmental action is. and
must ever be, based upon mere selfish
ness, and that to advance ethical reasons
for such ctiOn is always a sign of hypoc-
rlsy. This is no more necessarily true of
the action Of governments than of the
action of individuals. It should be orr
steady aim to raise the ethical standard
of national action Just as we strive to
raise the ethical standard of individual
acton.
Not only must we treat all nations
fairly, but we must treat with Justice and
good will all immigrants who come here
under the law. Whether they are Catho-
lie or Protestant, Jew or Gentle; whether
they come from England or Germany.
Russia, Japan. or Italy, matters nothing.
All we have right to question is the
mans conduct. If he is honest and un-
right in his dealings with his neighbor
and with the State, then he is entitled to
respect and good treatment Especially
do we need to remember our duty to the
stranger within our gates. 1t is the sure
mark CT low civilization, a low morality.
TO abuse or discriminate against. or in
any way humiliate such stranger who has
come here lawfully. and who is conduct
ing himself properly To remember this
Is incumbent on every American citizen.
and It IS, Of course, peculiarly incumbent
on every government official, whether of
the nation or of the several States
am prompted to say this by the atti-
tude Of hostility here and there assumed

has control Of the schools Of the District
Of Columbia, and 1t should see that these
schools promote and encourage the full
est development of the scholars in both
commercial and industrial training. The
commercial training should IN one Of its
branches deal with foreign trade. The
industrial training is even more impor-
tant Our Industrial development depends
largely upon technical education, includ-
ing In this term all industrial education,
from that which fits a man to be a good
mechanic, a good carpenter< or black
smith, to that which fits a man to do the
greatest engineering feat. The skilled
mechanic. the skilled workman, can best
become such by technical industrial edu-
cation.
IN every possible way we should help
the wagewOrker who tolls with his hands,
and who must eve hope in constantly
increasing measured also toll with his
brain Under the Constitution the National
Legislature can do but little Of direct i'm
portance for his welfare, save where he
is engaged in work which permits it to
act under the interstate commerce clause
of the Constitution; and this is one rea-
son why so earnestly hope that both the
legislative and judicial branches Of the
government viii cOnstrue this clause Of
the Constitution in the broadest possible
manner. We can. however, in such a
matter as industrial training. In such a
matter as child labor and factory laws
set an example TO the States by enacting
the most advanced legislation that can
wisely be enacted for the District of Co

Philippine Tariff.

I most earnestly hope that the bill to
provide a lower tariff for. or else absolute
free trade in Philippine products will be-
come a law. No harm will come 70 any
American industry; and while there will
be some small but real material benefit
10 the Filipinos, the main benefit viii
come by the showing made as TO our pur-
pose to do all In our power for their vel
fare. So far our action in the Philippines
has been abundantly justified We are
steadily introducing both liberty and or
der. We have secured justice. We have
provided an efficient police force. and have
put down ladrOuism. only in the Islands
of Leyte and Samar is the authority of
our government resisted, and this by wild
mountain tribes under the superstItious
inspiration OF falUrs and pseudo-religious
leaders. We are constantly increasing the
measure of liberty accorded the island
eTs. and next spring. If conditions war
rant. we shall take a great stride for
ward in testing their capacity for self
government by summoning the first Fill
pinO legislative assembly. Let US also see
TO It that they are given free access TO
our markets.

American shfnning.

Let me once again call the attention Of
the Congress 10 two subjects concerning
which I have frequently before communi-
Gated with them. One IS the question of
developing American shipping. I trust
that law embodying in substance the
views, or major part Of the views. ex-
pressed in the report on this subject laid
before the House at its last session will
be passed I am well aware that IN for
mer years Objectionable measures have
been proposed in reference TO the encour-
agement Of American shipping; but It
seems to me that the proposed measure
IS as nearly unobjectionable as any can
Dc 1t will. Of course, benefit primarily
our seaboard States. such as Maine.
louisiana, and Washington; but what ben
ehts part of our people In the end bene-
hts all; Just as government aid TO iTriga-
ton and forestry In the West IS really of
benefit, not only to the Rocky Mountain
states, but TO all our country If II
prove impracticable to enact a law for
the announcement of shipping generally.
then at least provision should be made
for better communication with South
America, notably for fast mail lines to
the chief South American ports.

THE WY AND ARMY.

The United States navy is the guaran-
tor Of peace which this country possesses.
It IS earnestly to be wished that We
would profit by the teachings Of history
in this matter. A strong and wise peo-
pie will study its own failures no less
than its triumphs, for there is wisdom
TO be learned from the study Of both. Of
the mistake as we'll as Of the success.
For this purpose nothing could be more
instructive than rational study of the
war OF 1872. as it is told, for instance. by
Capt. Mahan. There was only one way
in which that war could have been avoid

a navy relatively as strong as that which
this country nov has. had been built up.
and an army provided relatively as good
as that which the.country now has there
never would have been the slightest neces-
sity Of fighting the war: and if the neces-
sity had arisen the war would. under
such circumstances. have ended with our
speedy and overwhelming triumph But
our people during those twelve years re-
fused to make any preparations what
ever, regarding either the army or the
navy. They saved a million or two Of
dollars by so doing; and I'm mere money
paid a hundredfold for each million they
thus saved during the three years of war
which followed.
/ do not ask that we continue TO in
crease our navy. I ask merely that II be
maintained at it's present strength: and
this can be done only if we replace the
obsolete and outworn ships by new and
good ones, the equals of any afloat IN anv
navy. TO stop building ships for one
year means that for that year the navy
goes back instead OF forward. The old
battle ship Texas, for instance. would
now be Of little service in stand-up
fight with a powerful adversary. The
old double-turret monitors have outworn
their usefulness, while it was waste of
money TO build the modern singIe-turret
monitors. All these ships should be re-

There must soon be a revision of them,
because to leave them as they are means
to incur liability Of business disaster.
Since your body adjourned there has been
a huctuation in the interest on call money
from per cent to 80 per cent; and the
huctuation was even greater during the
preceding six months. The Secretary OF
the Treasury had to step in, and, by
wise action, put a stop to the most vio-
lent period Of oscillation. Even worse
than such f1uctuation is the advance in
commercial rates, and the uncertainty
felt in the suffieiency of credit even at
high rates All commercial interests suf-
fer during each crop period. Excessive
rates for call money in New York at
tract money from the interior banks into
the speculative field; this depletes the
fund that would otherwise be available
for commercial uses. and commercial bor-
rowers are forced 10 pay abnormal rates;
so that each fall tax, in the shape of
increased interest charges, is placed on
the whole commerce of the country.
The mere statement of these facts
shows that our present system Is seri-
ously defective. / do not press any es-

/ do not say that this is the right sys-

my belief that there is need for the adop-
tion Of some system which shall be auto
matte and open to all sound banks, so as
TO avoid all possibility OF discrimination
and favoTitsm. Such a plan would tend
to prevent the spasms of high money and
speculation which now obtain in the New
York market. It must never be forgotten
thit this question concerns business men
generally quite as much as bankers; es-
pecially is this true OF stOckmen, farmers.
and business men in the West: for at
present at certain seasons Of the year the
difference in interest rates between the
East and the West is from to 10 per
cent. whereas in Canada the correspond
ing difference is but 2 per cent.

Inadequate limitations prescribed BY the

On July IS and II, the crews from several
japanese vessels made raids upon the
Island Of st. Paul. and before they were
beaten off by the very meager and insult
ficiently armed guard. they succeeded in
killing several hundred seals and carrying
off the skins Of most Of them. Nearly all
the seals killed were females, and the
work was done with frightfuI barbarity
Many of the seals appear to have been
skinned alive, and many were found half
skinned and still alive. The raids were
repelled only by the use OF firearms. and
five Of the raiders were killed, two were
wounded, and twelve captured, including
the two wounded. Those captured have
since been tried and sentenced to impris-
onment. An attack OF this kind had been
