Kronstadt, Russia, July 10.-After
celebrating for ten hours, the court
martial which heard the charges against
Admiral Rodjestyensky aud other off.
GERS of the torpedo boat Bedovi in con-
nection with the surrender Of the boat
TO the japanese in the battle of the Sea
of Japan, returned a verdict today ac-
quitting Rodjestvensky, and all but four
of the other officers who were brought
to trial. Four of the officers of the tor
pedo boat were found guilty of surren-
dering the little vessel with premedita-
ton and were condemned to death. The
court martial, however, recommended
the condemned men to the hercy OF the
Gar, owing to extenuating circum-
stances, with the request that the YER
dict should be COMMITTED to dismissal
from the service.
After Admiral ROdjestvensky's Asg.
ship had oeen disabled in the great
battle between the Russian and japanese
fleets the Admiral, wounded and inca
pacltated, was taken aboard the Bed0vi.
An attempt was made to escape, but when
the Bedovi was oyerhauled it was suyfen-
dered without resistance by the officers
vino did not wish to further endsnger
the life OF their stricken commander in
chief. Rodjestvensky was taken to Japan
and there nursed back to health before
being sent to Russia, after the war was
over. Admiral Rodjestvensky ST the
court martial hearing, offered plea Of
guilty, thus presenting himself as sacri
fee for the other officers, as he believed
the love of his officers for him had
prompted them to surrender the Bedovi,
in order to save his life. In statement
to the court he took all the blame
upon himself and asked tina. he alone
be punished to the full extent of the
law. In addition to ROdjestvensky,
members of his staff who had accompan-
led him on board the Bedoyi as we'll as
the chief officers of the torpedo boat,
were brought TO trial. All the officers
except the commander in chief pleaded
not guilty. Evidence showed that Rod
iesvensky was in such condition that he
could not have had anything to do with
it, and the verdict of scquittsl was rem
d red despite the plea of gnilty.

ALMOST the first thing discussed by
the Panama Canal Commission on Its
assemblage on the isthmus was the de-
STABILITY of reducing the entire Pacihc
section of the canal to sea level. by
this plan the high level would be con-
fined to the artificial lake to be created
by the construction of dams at Gatun
aud MiraAores, which would be aP-
preached from the sea level reaches OF
actual canal on either side by fights Of
locks. The advocate OF the change is
that confirmed high levelist, Chief En-
Uineer Stevens himself The exigency
which caused the change was the dis
covery that the location al La Boca was
not satisfactory for a high lift ock. The
Philadelphia Record says a great many
like exigencies will probably arise in
the course of construction, and the plan
of the canal as finally completed will
doubtless differ materially from the
present plans.
