japanese Monroe Doctrine.

Washington, Sept 5.-Perhaps the
feverish activity in the naval and mil

to plans for war with the United

officer expresses the opinion that ia

with which the japanese government
is well known to be on excellent
terms, for the well considered pur-
pose of distracting attention from

100 persons went down to taeir death

Awakened from their slumbers in
their staterooms, the unfortunate pass
engers were at the mercy of the fates.
Many, is it believed, went down with
the ship. Others, temporarily thank
full that they had escaped drowning,
prayed that they Eight be relieved of
the terrible pain caused by their frozen
bodies, and one unknown passenger
plunged a knife inc his throat and end
ed his sufferings.
The few who survived were in pitt
full condition. In almost every case
their arms and legs hung helplessly as
they were lifted out of the boats in
which they they reached shore. Dur
ing the day 4S bodies came ashore,
either in boats or thrown up by the
sea. Only six of the 48 bodies were
identified.

There is practically no change in
the models of bicycles for 1907 from

which shows departure from the for

frame is reinforced by bar directly
under the top on the frame. This
makes the frame much stronger than

model is not cumbersome, but on the
contrary is quite attractive.
