SEEKING GREEK
MUROERERS

Sheriff Fred Ratcliff, of Whit
man county, reached the city this
morning in pursuit of Greeks, l
named Jim George. suspected OF
being the murderers of another
Greek who was found dead in
wheatfield near Palouse Tuesday.
The sheriff has obtained almost a
perfect description Of them. They
were seen at the Providence saloon
here yesterday, from what some To-
cal Greeks who know them say.
Both the men were preparing to
go to the mother country and had
stated they were soon to get
tickets In this city. Detectives are
spread out about town assisting the
big Whitman county officer.
The murder was cold blooded.
The 3 men had been working on
the Spokane & Inland electric line
near Palouse and quit work, after
saying they had enough money to
60 back home with and live easy
the rest of their natural lives. The
murdered Greek is said to have
had about $1,000.
The theory of Sheriff Ratcliff is
that these whom he Is now hunt
ing, murdered their companion for
the purpose of robbery. When the
body was found the money was
missing.

To. PROTECT
CITY STREETS

Commissioner ONO advocates
forcing construction companies to
tear up but blocks of streets at
a time. The Barber and Indepen-
dent asphalt companies, the Pacific
States and Home telephone COM
panies and streetcar companies,
now tear up as many blocks of
streets as they care to tackle at
once, and leave them torn up for
as long as they wish. The COM
missioner has had numerous COM
plants from business men about
1t, but is powerless to change pres
emit mode Of construction because
there is no prohibitive ordinance,
he says.
II shall use my best efforts and
influence with the council to have
it pass an ordinance providing that
not more than 2 blocks Of streets
shall be torn up at time" he de-
clares. "The council just now does
not seem to be much interested in
this, but when l have fully explain
ed to them the numerous kicks
which I receive about torn up
streets l am sure they will act"

The weakest place in the United
States navy Is the lack of trans.
port and coaling ships. In the event
Of war suddenly being declared
the United States would feel sc.

1t Is certain that President
Roosevelt will ask authority from
congress to build at least 3 new
battleships to replace those which
must necessarily be permanently
withdrawn from the Atlantic sQaud-
ron.
AS previously indicated, he will
call attention to the pressing need
for naval bases on the Pacific, in
the Philippines, at Hawaii and at
I or more places on the southern
coast of North America.
1t would not be surprising If the
hostile aspect of the Pacific re.
suited in an addition to the naval
budget of $50,OO0,000.
The administration is opposed to
the dissemination Of alarmist re-
ports, but the president feels that
it would be the part of folly to
close our eyes to existing condi.
lions. The only guarantee of peace
on the Pacific Is to be found In
great strengthening Of our naval
and land strength in the Philip
pines and on the west coast of the
United States, and this proposition
will be put up to congress next
winter in a manner which states
men will have difficulty in dodg'
ing.

Japan is building nrSt class
battleships whose combined tom
mage is $3.50; 3 armored cruisers,
with tonnage of 1880; l cruis-
er of 400 tons, and 2 cruisers Of
$500 tons.
Japan has more than twice as
many torpedo boats and torpedo
boat destrOyers as the United
States. A fact that has been made
an important part of the returns to
the bureau of naval intelligence is
that torpedo boats and destroyers
played an important part in the de-
feat of the Russians by the Japa-
nese in the battle in which Rojest-
vensky's fleet was destroyed. The
work Of the battleships was ably
seconded by the socalled mosquito
fleet, which repeatedly ran in upon
the larger vessels, discharging tor
pedoes at them, marrying them, pur-
suing, boarding and preventing
their escape. 1t Is regarded as
singularly unfortunate that con-
gress has neglected to keep up the
strength of the torpedo and de-
stroyer fleet in the Pacific.
The strongest elements in the
American navy are its battleships,
of which there are nearly twice
the number possessed by Japan. 1t
Is unfortunate that some of the
American battleships are not new
or up-to-date. A number Of them
have been in commission SO long
that they are sadly in need of
thorough overhauling and re-eQuip-
ment. Two or 3 will probably soon
have to be withdrawn from COM
mission There is even talk of
withdrawing the Ohio and the good
old Oregon.
Our defense vessels, of which the
United States has II and Japan 3,
are mostly Of the old monitor type,
heavy, slow, without any steaming
radius and with few guns
The cruisers are excellent for
scouting purposes and the Japanese
Russian war taught that scouts are
much needed in the naval game.
The United States has AZ cruisers
to 10 owned by Japan. The cruis
err, however, is light in its armor
