Roosevelt Grows Suspicious and War

Department. Is Active.
Special to The Journal.
Chicago. Feb. 26.-John CaIlan
o,Iaug6lin, in Washington dispatch
to the Chicago Tribune, says:
President Roosevelt has grown sus-
picious of the good faith OF the CHI
nese government as result OF the poh-
pursuing. He has been given assur-
ances thru Minister Rockhill which are
not in keeping with the acts OF the
Picking authorities.
Apparently there has been adopted
at the Chinese capital tactics such as
were observed in 1900, prior to the
Boxer outbreak. The diplomatic corps
was told then in the most positive man
ner that the reports of general up,
rising were without foundation, and
that the government had taken ample
measures to suppress local disturbances
and to prevent injury to life and prop
erty. The result of this representation
was the failure of foreign powers TO
take action for the protection of their
subjects until it was too late.
Parallel to Boxer Trouble.
The administration sees in the pres
ent situation parallel with that which
existed prior to the Boxer OUTBREAK,
with this single anu lHPoioo.l' 49,

sion is one of the timely features pro-
vided for the delectatIon of buyers Of
the Sunday North American for April

lures in the paper for Easter Sunday

that will appeai most strongly is a
handsome lithogravure of little girl
surrounded by rabbits-the child's Eas-
ter animal.
To give 10 the artist full and per-
feet expression of HIS work, the print
ers have done the picture in ten print
ings, getting into the composition ev-
cry shading of color that can be pro-
duced by mechanical means. The re-
suit is delicate. finished reproduction,
even more attractive than the wonder
fully faithful original.
The Gibson picture series will be
continued onJSunday, April -.

WEST VIRGINIA ITEMS.

J. L. Hatfield was elected mayor OF
Morgantown over Hayes, Republican,
by 1873 majority.
John Price. the young fellow who
shot and killed three Italians at Paw
Paw last fall, was tried at Berkeley
Springs last week and acquitted.
The city of Parkersburg has re-
fused to again license the pool-rooms
that have been running in that city
for. several years past. They have
caused the ruin of some promising
business men.
A dreadful accident occurred in the
B. & o. Railroad yards at Keyser,
this State, by which two men were
slowly roasted to death and third
was so badly hurt that he died soon
afterward. The killed were JAW.
Jennings, an aged conductor of Bruins
wick; NJ. Keyser, brakeman, of Sandy
Hook; J. L. McKenny, conductor, of
Martins burg. W. B. Long, brake
man, of Martinsburg. was badly hurt,
having his leg broken and his back
injured. Two yard engines sidewiped
in the yards. one tearing away the cab
of the other, which threw the engi-
neer and fireman out and threw the
throttle of the wrecked engine wide
open. The engine ran away down
the side track into the cabooses and
crashed them against string of steel
hoppers, telescoping three cabooses,
in which several tlainmen were sleep
ing. The cabooses, reduced almost
to kindling. caught fire. and then en-
sued a horrible scene. Conductor
Jennings and Brakeman Keyser were
not instantly killed, but were pinned
beneath the wreck and burned to
death, their bodies being an unrecog-
nizable mass of charred flesh. Both
men cried to be released from the
wreckage, and every effort was made
to save them without avail. The
Keyser fire department responded,
but it was not in time to save the
poor fellows.

Japan'S Wonderful Progress.

Within the space of less than two
years Japan has become one of the
great powers of the earth, and its re-
cent achievements in the war with
Russia have caused the other powers TO
take notice. The wonderful cures
made by the celebrated Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters has also caused the
medical world to take notice, and as a
result it is being prescribed every day
to patients who suffer from nausea,
heartburn, bloating, sour risings, poor
appetite, indigestion, dyspepsia, cos
tiveness or bllliousness with gratifying
results. In these spring months 1T is
also very effective in overcoming that
tired feeling. 1t tones up the sluggish
liver, purities the blood and makes you

The Shepherdstown REGISTER refers
facetiously to the recent sale of the East

a fabulous price. 1t rather looks 9TH

years ago of opposite politics to drop

In the Senate last Friday Senator
Elkins made his speech on the Hep
burn railroad rate bill. He said that
he believed that the situation demands
legislation along the lines proposed,
but thought that the Hepburn bill
had many defects. His chief objec-
ton to that bill, he declared. was that
it did not go far enough and he want
ed it made better and stronger. The
Senator offered bill of his own as a
substitute, the principle feature of
which is provision for a broad re-
view-in other words providing that
instead of giving the railroad COM
mission authority to put into effect
what it regards as reasonable rates
the matter shall be turned over to
more or less satisfactory and honest
courts, there to drag along its weary
length until the complainant shall
have died or become exhausted.
Senator Elkins's speech sounds fair,
but we cannot get away from the i'm.
preston that it is utterly hollow and
insincere.

SENATOR ELKINs continues to deny
that he is one of the railroad Sena-
tors" as they are now being appro'
priately called. and maintains that
he is for the rate regulation bill In
full accord with the President. We
are Of the option that the Senator
has been two long among the goats
to successfully claim protection among
the sheep now. Heis properly classed
as one of the "big FIVE, that coterie
of United States Senators who stand
not only as the special defenders OF
the railroad monopoly but of the cor
porate interests generally-who have
been so defiant Of public criticism
heretofore, so SNUG and self satisf ed.
so fertile in expedients, so powerful
in shaping legislation for the inter-
ests they represent and who have
grown so rich by reason of being on
the side of the monopolies. This
"big FIVE" is well known-Senator Al
drich, the father-in,law of John d.
Rockefeller, Jr., aad the leader of the
gang; Senator Knox, the direct repre-
sentative of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Senator raker, so notorious
and bold in his championship of the
trusts that his own State of Ohio
went Democratic last fall Senator
Spooner, who is so sliopery and so
successful in preventing legislation
lnimical to the trusts; and Senator
Elkins, who has more than once sue
cessfully fooled the people by substi-
tuting for effective laws ambiguous
and useless measures.
Senator Elkins has been in bad
company for many years. The peo-
pie will be foolish indeed if they
shall be deceived by oily words no y,
when public sentiment is soaring him
into protestations and the expiration
of his term makes it desirable that he
should change tactics.
Elect him for another term, and
then you'll see whether his CONVEX.
sion is genuine or not.

OFFICIALS OF the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad appeared before the Board
OF Public Works at Charleston last
Saturday to discuss with the board
the value OF the companys property
in West Virginia for purposes of tax
alton. The value of the main line
was given as $50, 40 mile, includ-
ing rolling stock; the Parkersburg
branch was placed at $4,000 mile,
the Wheeling branch at $l5, 900 a
mile, the Winchester and Potomac
branch at $7,7l2 a mile, and the
Romney branch at So, 466 a mile.
We hardly think that even con-
scienceless railroad will dare assert
that this is 1.-The true and actual val
ue, so there is duty before the
Board of Public Works that the peo-
pie are anxiously waiting for them to
discharge.
The Romney branch is valued at
1896 a mile. This hue is Just
about the same as the Berkeley Springs
branch so far as construction and val
ne is concerned, yet the B. & o last
week made report to the s.ockhold-
ers OF the Berkeley Springs branch in
which the company charged up the
enormous sum of $ll5 954 90 for the
construction of the three miles that
comprise this branch There's some
thing that needs explanation here.
For taxation So 466 a mile.
For purposes of robbery, $685. a
mile.
1t looks as if there something mon
strously rotten, and the Board Of Pub.
lie Works should ferret it out.
