grand jury concerning alleged boodling

Coyne, once member of the Tammany

Coyne stated that he forgot when
asked by the grand jury to testify
concerning an alleged offer of 81 600
made by him to secure legislation, and
in the trial ending tonight the charge
of perjury was sustained after Judge
Williams ruled out the testimony of
fered by the defense to the effect that
COSne injured his head by falling down
a stairway in New York in 1906, and
his memory has since been impaired.
Dispositions by New York ply sicians
were read tending to show Coyne's
memory had been affected by his fall.
but this and other testimony was
stricken from the record on Circuit At
tOrrey Sager's motion, which was based
on the assertion that the testimony
did not cover the period during which
Coyne testified, and that it did not
show that he was insane in the sense.

ROJESTVENSKy
SEES NO DANGER
Russian Admiral Believes the
Trip to tn: Pacific Can Be
Made IN Safety.
QUIETUS ON JAP JING0ISM
OPINION OF GERMAN NAVAL AU-
THoRITY.

ST. Petersburg. Dec. 17.-Admiral
Rojestvensky, who during the Russo
Japanese war led the nI-starred Rus
sian fleet around Africa to ultimate de
feat at the hands of the Japanese in
the Sea of Japan, is keenly interested
in the cruise of the American battle
ship squadron. He talked today with
the correspondent of the Associated
Press on the matter He. after Outlin-
ing some of the difficulties the Ameri-
can vessels would have 10 overcome,
said he considered the voyage to the
Pacific to be entirely practicable.
Can Be Safely Made.
at can be made safely either in time
of peace or in time of war" said Roll
estvensky. sheltered harbOrs are
available for coaling, and there is no
fear of interference on the part Of any
of the South American governments.
The passage of the Straits of Magellan,
especially in summer time, presents no
difficulty TO a skilled commander. This
expedition differs from the trip of the
Baltic fieeI. in that we were obliged to
coal at sea. We were not permitted TO
linger for even one day in the untre-
auented Bay of AMMAN without
eminent and the English admiral to
move on"
Criterion of Success.
According TO Admiral Rojestvensky,
the chief criterion of the success of the
voyage viii be Rear Admiral Evans

squadron to the various stopping places

The British fleet, which ranks among
the most efficient in the world. found ii
necessary to drop the iaggards during
it's recent nlaneuVer. This would be
fatal in wa time. OF the effect of
the American squadron in the Pacific
on the japanese. the admiral said:
Will Curb Pretenslons.
While this voyage win be valuable
IN Welning the fleet into a homogene-
Gus weapon, II will have also a high
strategic value in curbing the preten-
Eions of the japanese, whose jingoism
has noticeably abated since the an
nouncement of the PLAN
Rojestvensky disparaged the idea OF
duplicating the battleship squadron
one for the Atlantic and the other for
the Pacific.
He declared that one fleet would be
adequate for the protection of both
coasts, and that its transfer could be
made periodically with advantage Il
both ships and crews. The feet should
rave its base at San Francisco or some
other American port while in the Pa
ci1c, he said. To station it in the Phil
ippines would be expensive and unnec-
essary.
Contrasting the American and Japan
csc fleets, the Russian admiral said:
The japanese personnel, man fol
man, is now undoubtedly more efficient
than the American, due to practice in
battle but the American ships so ex-
coed the japanese in strength and
numbers that there is no question OF
American superiority. I consider the
question of war war between Japan
and the United States is quite ex-
cluded.''

As near as can be learned the break in
the wires is near Palmetto. a mining
camp about tWenty-one miles southwest
of Goldfield. The power which is brought
to Goldfield is developed near Bishop, in
lDyO county. California. about fifty miles
away. For the past five weeks the power
company has had a large force of men
patrolling the line, which passes over the
highest portion of the Sierra Blanca
range. A telephone line extends the en-
tire length of the power line, and this
also is down. so that communication with
the men patrolling the power line is I'M
possible An effort was made to induce
General Funston to patrol the city and
the vicinity Of the mines with troops to
night, but he has not yet issued such an
order.

QUESTION OF coALING.
Trip of the Fleet as Seen Through
Expert German spectacIes.

Berlin, Dec. 17.-COunt Ernst Won
Reventlow, who is regarded as the
most authoritative Of German writer's
ou/navaI affairs, said today regarding
the voyage of the American battleship
fleet to the Pacific coast:
1.-THE most interesting point from the
technical standpoint is the coaling of
such a large fleet at sea without stop
ping, and for such a prolonged period.
AS nine-tenths of the coal carrying
vessels are British, perhaps the United
states will have TO revise its policy re-
specting shipping in order 10 strength

remains dependent upon England for
ccal transportation the latter country
could use this fact TO advantage. i'm
case of future complications between
The United States and Japan, for the
promotion of her own political ends.
Useless on Pacific Coast.
1T would be interesting TO know
what disposition viii be made of this

IF II was sent TO the Philippines its
presence would promote peace as well
as guarantee The permanency of the
American possession of the islands;
but If it stays on the west coast of the
United States it viii not hinder Japan

waii.
Judging the situation from its mill
farv and political standpoints, it is
highly improbable, in my opinion, that
