Rojestvensky' first public comment
on his battle, or attempt at battle, is
to the effect that while he and his
men were perhaps guilty to some ex-
tent in the matter of responsibility for
their defeat. yet they were not
thieves" Which is pretty plain
hint that he thinks some of the blame
ought to go to rascally officials in St
Petersburg Between graft and plain
stupidity, 1t is very likely that he did
go into tae engagement wretchedly
unfit in mechanical point of view.

pedoes-but ne should have found out
what was wrong before he sailed.
That Is, unless a grand duke was re-
sponsible. in which case. perhaps ne
did the right thing in preferrihg TO
face the Japs and dare a short death
and a merry one.

In an article entitled "The South's
Amazing Progress" in the current
number of the Review of Reviews,
Richard II. Edmunds gives graphic
pen picture OF the remarkable ma
terial development in the Southern
states. Between 1880 and 1905 the
number Of cotton spindles in the
South increased from 667 900 to g..
205,000. In the same period the
consumption of cotton in Southern
mills increased from 225,000 to g
10000 bales. From 1890 to 1905 the
South nearly quadrupled its consump-
ton of cotton. This statement is OF
special significance because, in the
same period, the consumption of cot.
ton in New England increased but 2s
per cent. Southern iron production
in 1905, was 100000 tons, as com.
pared with $4,000 tons in 1880. and
in the same rs years the amount OF
coal mined increased from G,000, 900
tons to 7O.O0O,O0O tons.
