Later Report.
HOLD WAR FLEET TOGETHER.
Possible Reason for Bringing Fight
inq Craft to the Pacific.

After all the guessing and specula-
ton is over. as to the motives which
impelled the president and majority
of the naval general board to order the
battleship fleet to the Pacific, the con-
sensus of opinion is that several
causes contributed to bring about the
decision. A new factor which army
circles believe may have been one OF
most Importance in influencing this ac-
ton, is found in the paragraph in the
report by Captain William A. Judson,
observers with the Russian army. in
Manchuria during the last war. The
report has just been published by the
general staff and doubtless it's con-
tents were known to the president.
In his report Captain Judson says:
SIT is interesting also to reflect upon
what would have occurred if, at the
outbreak of the war, the Russian feet
in the far east had been limited to
few protected cruisers, all battleships
being retained in home waters. 1t is
quite evident that in such case, by the
summer of 1905 a fleet might have
been dispatched to the theater of oper-
ations with sufficient strength to
crush the Japanese beyond the ques-
| ton of doubt. Indeed, it cannot be
| believed that the Japanese would have
precipitated war if the Russian army
and navy had not been scattered to
their liking. This is, to be sure, a
naval question, but strategy is much
the same on the land and on the sea,
and one is forced to wonder why we
maintain several battleships on the
Asiatic station subject to destruction
in case of sudden war"

it is not to be denied that the Barber
Lumber company has secured posses
sion of the timber lands involved in
the present case, it will be claimed
that Senator Borah, acting as counsel
for the lumber company, had no part
in the conspiracy, If one existed, and
that he dealt only with the transfer
of the claims after their purchase had
been negotiated in legal manner.
William Sweet, one Of the 10 indicted
men, is said to have turned states
evidence, and is also reported in some
quarters to have repudiated the con-
fession. The reputation story is also

) CHINA TO BE DIVIDED 2
WI Tung Fang May Prevent Plans OF
Powers.

WI Tung Fang May Prevent Plans Of
Powers.
Is China confronted by a gigantic
struggle to preserve its territorial in
tegrity? Do the recent treaties en-
tered into with Japan by Russia and
between Great Britain and France
have as an Interior object the parti-
ton of the empire, which the late sec
rotary of state John Hay fought to the
day of his death to prevent?
Such is the conjecture given rise to
by the Picking announcement that
former Minister WI Tung Fang is to
return to the land where he once lived
so greatly and from which he was
withdrawn because Of his too ready
acceptance of American customs. ORR
entail advices are that WI lungs in
luence with the United States and
Germany would prove potent in Sc
curing these two governments coop
Grafton to thwart plans looking to
territorial footing. The Chinese gov.
Won Sternburg's retirement from
Washington and the appointment in
his place of Baron Mum de Schwar
zenstein, now German minister to Chi
ma; also the selection of Charles Den
by, now United States consul general
to Shanghai, as the first ambassador
| to Picking. It is understood the rep
resentatives have been made to this
government to ascertain whether WI
would be persona grata.
Some folks say he would be. Others
believe the suspicion that he initiated
the disastrous Chinese boycott will
preclude his acceptance here.

DEAD GIRL IN BIG TRUNK.
Murder Mystery in CHASTITY Find Near
Seattle, Wash.

Seattle. Wash, Sept 24.-The body
of an unknown girl about IL years
old was found in trunk on the
beach at South Alki, about two and a
half miles south of Elliott bay. The
girl had evidently been strangled and
had been dead from two to i've days.
In the trunk were the girls clothing
and the clothing of man and two
letters. one of which may lead to her
identity. This letter was that OF sis
ter to a brother. 1t was written on
letter head Of ~. D. Covington, Fuel,
Feed and Hauling, st. Paul, Mimi"
and was signed Edith" 1t bears the
date of April II, 1905, and was en-
closed in worn and unaddressed en-
velope. It was written to Frank Gov
ington. The other letter had no sig
nificance, as far as could be deciph-
cred
When two men in small launch
discovered it they drew it upon the,
beach. In the tray were two rocks.
Lifting the tray, they saw woman's
head. They notified the police, and an
examination of the trunk revealed,
hidden under lot Of clothes, the nude
body of a girl. A chemise was tied
taut around her neck and there was
gag in her mouth An autopsy re-
vealed no marks of violence, except
that she had been strangled. No
motive was disclosed for the crime
and it is believed that she was either
married or had lover.
The st. Paul police have beene no.
titled to search that city for Coving-
ton in the hope Of identifying her
body.
