1t would seem improbable that the

STEEL TRUST PLANS
A BIG WAREHOUSE
Proposes to Buy Tract for il on the
Meadows Lying South Of
Newark.

NEWARK, Dee. 17:-The United
States Steel Corporation plans to es-
tablish a big storage ware house at
a cost of more than 81, 900, 900 on
the meadows to the south of Newark,
according to an announcement made
yesterday to q committee of the com
mon council.
The warehouse is to occupy part
of a tract of about s~eventy-iye acres.
The buildings are to be about 1900
feet in length by $50 in width, and
the ultimate purpose is to facilitate
communication with New York and
the New England states by cutting
a ship canal from Newark bay TO the
plant.
For several days the committee on
poor and aims ofAthe common coun-
ell, which has charge of the burial
of the eityss unknown and pauper
dead, has been considering a offer
to buy a tract of about fourteen acres
which the city bought several years
ago with the idea of converting it in
to an extension of the present Pot
ter's Field. The ground was found
to be unsuitable for burial purposes.
Through the agents who did not
disclose the identity of their clients,
the committee was offered $1,000 an
acre for the land. Another offer of
$4,000 an acre was then made by an
other agent representing other hid
den clients. The appearance of the
second party caused the United
States Steel Corporation to disclose
it's interest and to announce its al
legged purpose.
John C. Neale, of the big trusts
engineering department, explained
yesterday that the company proposes
to start the warehouse with a suffi-
cient quantity of completed material
to enable it to fill the biggest orders
without the delays now caused by the
necessity of transporting steel from
the various mills of the corporation.
The two bidders are to submit
sealed estimates to the committee
next Monday night.

DUCASSOFF HELD HIM
Another EAttempt on the Life of
.. Former Governor of Moscow.

BURG. Dec. 17.-Anoth-
er attempt on the life of ADMIRAL Du-
bassoff, ex-governor general of Mos
COW, was MADE here, but he escaped
with slight injuries.
The ex-governor general was walk
ing along il rather solitary path of the
Tauride garden, in which the lower
house Of parliament is situated, when
Il young man dressed us Il workman
approached and fred seven shots from
Il revolver. but missed the admiral ow-
ing to his nervousness. The terrorist
then turned and an, with fine admiral
in pursuit. Seeing that his capture
was imminent, Dubassoff's assailant
turned and threw Il bomb. which he
drew from his pocket, ut his pursuer.
Dubassoff was hurled to the ground
by the force of the explosion. AT that
moment Il Waterman ran up and seized
the terrorist.
As the admiral was rising from the
ground Il second terrorist appeared
and threw IL bomb at the admiral,
which passed over his head and did
not explode. The second terrorist then
fired three shots from a revolver at
the admiral and missed him. Dubas-
soft then threw himself upon the ter
rorist. disarmed him and held the
man until he was seized and taken
TO the nearest police station.
The attempt on Dubassof"s life is
connected with the trials of the Mos
COW revolutionists now in progress at
Moscow.
Throughout Russian Poland the gov
ernment's policy of firmness has been
successful in subduing the last of the
smoldering sparks of revolution. This
result has been accomplished at a ter
rlble cost to the Polish people, the num-
Der of victims heing estimated at thou
sands. Business has become stagnant.
the trades and industries are bankrupt,
and the masses are dispiNted and in a
state of lamentable poverty.
At Ceznstochowa, which is a typical
Polish town, seven so called terrorists
have been tried by drumhead court
martial and executed during the last
two days.
Five terrorists We're tried, convicted
and shot at Warsaw, as also were
three at Sieradz. near Kalisz, two at
Tomeszow and one at Lomza. These
executions have been going on so con-
.stantly throughout Poland generally
that it has become almost superfiuous
to repeat the daily chronicle of mill
tary executions.
At Lipkany, Bessarabia. three
lutionists upon being arrested shot and
killed an official and then fled.
Three peasants who joined in their
pursuit were also killed by the revolu-
tionists. Two of the revolutionists
were shot and Killed by officials and
the third committed suicide.

]. s. JAPAN VAR
Expect CORhldi Between United
States and Japan Would be
Cause for Joy In EurOpe9


BERLIN, Dec, 1.-THE relations be.
tween the United States and Japan ex-
cite extraordinary interest both in gov
eminent and diplomatic circles here.
Emperor William discussed the ques-
ton with several persons recently and
is thoroughly Informed, regarding Pres
ident Roosevelt's personal views on the
subject.
Among German military and naval
officers the possibility of a conflict be-
tween the United States and Japan
has been freely discussed, and the
professional views appear to agree
that Japan would take the Philippine
Islands and place upon the United
States the necessity of conducting
across the Pacific prolonged sen and
land campaigns, which would call
forth immense exertions against great
natural obstacles.
1t is alleged here that the British adj
miralty has considered theoretically
the possibility of war between Japan
and the United States as likely to take
place within twenty-five years, and
ZONE of the British naval men are re-
ported to have expressed the belief
that the contest would take place
within five years.
In any case, 1t is certain that several
European foreign offices are ut present
making inquiries regarding the temper
of the Japanese people and the govern
ment of Japan.
The thought of war between Japan
and the United States does not fill
many European statesmen with horror.
.1apan's defeat of Russia naturally
made her unpopular in Europe. while
the United States as a world power is
secretly regarded as an %interloper. I'm
Gle Sans whiskefs need trimming
was the recent expression of a promi-
nent German. Russia continues to
wave the 'yellow perir' banner. AUS
tria has never forgotten Maximilian.
France is still Russia's ally. Japan
stands in the way of European adj
vancement in the far east. America
has its Monroe doctrine. From the
standpoints Of both sentiment and ma
terial interest. therefore. an armed con
hict between japan and the United
States would cause more than
high parsonage TO chortle with joy.
