Over $62,5OO has been raised by the
Federated Jewish Charities for the
twelve constituent Institutions This is
nearly double the amount raised by the
various organizations last year, when
each one by it's individual efforts raised
the money it needed. The Federation
was chartered last spring. The prelim-
mary work was organized in July. The
active work of raising money was not un-
dertaken until two months ago. The
work done in these sixty days has re-
suited in pledges amounting to the above
sum. The object of the federation is to-
raise all the money needed for the vari
GUS members through one agency. This
does away with the duplication Of work
and results in saving to the individual
societies.

READY TO ASSIST The JAPS
BRITISH FLEET HELD I'm RESERVE
DURING NAVAL FIGHT, SAYS
ROJEsTVENSKY.

St. Petersburg, Jan. 4.-The remark
able allegation that the British fleet
was held in readiness to destroy the
Russian fleet if the battle OF the Sea
of Japan had gone in the Russians
favor is made by Admiral RojeStyen-
sky in letter published in the Novoe
Vremya with the permission of the
minister of marine. Referring to the
absolute secrecy of Admiral Togo in
regard to the disposition of his forces
Rojestvensky declares that this was
unknown even to the admiral of the
British fleet allied with the Japanese,
who concentrated his forces at Wei
Fai-Wei in expectation of receiving an
order to annihilate the Russian fleet
If this, the final object of Great Brit
ain, was beyond the power of the Japa-
nese."
From Admiral Rojestvensky's ac-
count of his tactics in the battle of the
Sea of Japan, published in the Novoe
Vremya, the reader is almost con-
vinced that the Russian commander
outmaneuvered Admiral Togo at every
point and was himself the real victor.
Entered Fight With Eyes Open.
He declares he knew Admiral Togo's
exact whereabouts two days before the
battle, made his dispositions accord
ingly and entered the fight with his
eyes OPEN The admiral only casually
states in the course of his letter that
the minister of marine is investigat-
ing the causes Of the catastrophe to
determine whether the commander
shall be courtmartialed for the loss OF
the fleet.
The charge that the British admiral
concentrated his ships at Wei-Hai-Wei
expecting to receive an order to de.
stroy the Russians in the event of Ad-
miral Togo proving unequal to the
task has aroused a considerable SEN
sation in diplomatic circles, all the
more so as Admiral Rojestyensky's
letter was published with the permis-
sion Of the minister of marine and no
doubt is entertained that it will be
made the subject Of diplomatic repre-.
sentations to Great Britain.

FOR ROLLING STOCK FOR

STIMULATES DELIVERY AEx1 MONTH
DlscLAlMs HOSTILE INTENTIONS
BUT BELIEVES I'M BEING
FULLY PREPARED.

Berlin, Jan. 4.-The, railway admin.
istration placed orders last week for
10000 freight cars, at a cost of $780,,
100000, with manufacturers of five
countries, stipulating delivery by the
middle OF February, besides utilizing
the car works of Germany. The state
ment was made that the ordering OF
the cars was a precautionary measure
the general staff desiring to be ready
to move troops if necessary by the
first of March. This is only proper
measure of prudence, it was affirmed
in view Of the extensive military ar.
range1nents going on in France. which.
among other dispositions, include the
movement towards the German from
tier OF six regiments Of artillery, OF
1S0 guns. The ordering of these
freight cars, each OF which would ac
commodate forty soldiers or would en-
able the authorities to transport mate,
rial, is only in consequence of tbs
French preparations and must not be
taken to indicate any hostile design
on the part of Germany, whose peace
full intentions remain unchanged. The
step taken is due to the conviction
long held and acted upon here that the
Best Preservation of Peace
is complete preparedness for any even
tuality. The word war is not used.
because such a word in itself would be
a provocative, and every interest both
in and outside the government shrinks
from such a possibility unless it be a
small group of military men. The gov.
ernment will probably regret the pub.
Hcation of this intelligence, hut its
transmission seems necessary to a
proper understanding Of the drift OF
events and of how both France and
Germany are streng ngthening their dip
lomatic position on the eve Of the
Moroccan conference by material prep
aratiOns.
No doubt exists here that the French
and German policies will differ i'll the
conference on the question Of policing
the Morocco-Algerian frontier and on
some less important questions. sUnGo1

the conference all the participating
parties must agree to the conclusions
OF the conference or the situation re
verts to the status quo. In other
words, if at the conference all the
powers except one agree to a plan for
International control Of Morocco the
conference will have been in vain and
If the situation becomes as it was be-
fore the powers assented to call the
conference serious disagreements be-.
tween those specially interested may
