Toxic, Dec. 17,-All public men who
have been interviewed by the Assoc
ciated press representative regard the
sailing of the American battleship
fleet as foregone conclusion and it
is not likely that the actual start will
cause the slightest ripple of excite
ment. Every one accepts the asur-
ances of friendship offered by Amer
lea and comedies the right of that ma
tian to send its warships to Pacific
shores. Such men as Minister of
Foreign Affairs Hayashi, Count
Okuma, the leader of the opposition;
Marquis Ito, eX.Premier Katsura and
Admiral Togo have frequently said
that the American feet would be
heartily welcomed by Japan should
the vessels be sent to the far east

st. Petersburg, Dec. l7.-Admiral
Rojestvensky, who during the Russo
Japanese war led the ill-starred Rus
sian fleet around Africa to ultimate
defeat at the hands of the japanese
in the sea of Japan, is keenly inter
ested in the cruise of the American
battleship squadron. He talked Tues
day with the correspondent of the AS
ISOLATED press on the matter. He, af'
ter outlining some of the difficulties
the American vessels would have to
overcome, said he considered the voy.
age to the Pacific to be entirely prac-
ticable.
1T can be made safely either in
time of peace or In time OF war;" said
Rojestvensky. sheltered harbors
are available for coaling and there is
no fear of interference on the part of
any of the South American govern
ments The passage OF the Straits of
Magellan, especially in summer time,
presents no difficulty to skilled COM
mander. This expedition differs from
the trip of the Baltic feet, in that we
were obliged to coal at sea. We were
not permitted to linger for even one
day in the unfrequented bay of Amman
without brusque orders from the
French government and the English
admiral to move on"
According to Admiral Rojestvensky
the chief criterion of the success of
the voyage will be Rear Admiral
Evans ability to bring every vessel of
the squadron to the various stopping
places on scheduled time. The strag,
Cling due to mechanical defects, he
said, will be hard to overcome.

REYNOLDS Wins DINNER BETS
Customs Receipts Run Ahead of Sec
retary'S Estimate.
Belief that Total for Present Year
Would Exceed 1890, 900. 900 Is
Borne Out by Figures.

Assistant Secretary Of the Treasury
James Reynolds is happy. Also. he Is con-
templating the Joy Of having his friends
pay for seventeen dinners. one for each
day for more than half month.
The dinners Will be due him, from the
fact that the present indications are that
the customs receipts for the fiscal year,
ending June 80. viii be something like
S352. C0c.Ooo.
Some time ago Mr. Reynolds wagered a
friend at dinner that the receipts this
year would run 10 per cent greater than
last year, or S230.O00O00. Al the beginning
Of the week. after many other friends had
heard Of his belief and had come in to
get a bet down. believing II was easy"
the Assistant Secretary was $40. 900 ahead
Of the game At the close Of business last
night the total receipts had amounted to
the enormous total Ct s22s. 100000. leaving
but s. 10000 due in three days.
The money has been coming in az the
rate Of almost sl000,000 a day. and while
Mr. Reynolds anticipates the receipts will
run not less than $50. G)0 coo. he ls taking
no more dinner bets on the proposition
Il was announced Yesterday that the
surplus FOR the year just ending will be
between 100000 and S>5Gl0Oo0. leaving a

GET NO TRACE Or VOLKER
Relatives and Police Spend Day in
Fruitless Search.
Reward of 500 OGered by Father
Kane for Return of Young Man.
Father Stin Hopeful.

Mystery still surrounds the sudden dis
appearance Of Henry Volker. the eighteen
old boy who has not been seen since Mon
day at Glymont His body has not been
found. and there are some who are in
cliued 70 believe that the boy is alive and
lost in the woods.
One hundred dollars reward was offered
yesterday by Father Kane, Of 81. Alloy
sius Church. for tho return Of young Vol
ker. He went to the resort with several
Of his classmates from Gonzaga College
for a days outing. His clothes were found
on the bank Of the river.
Father Kane and Father O'Brien, and
the parents Of the missing boy. Mr.. and
Mrs Herman J. Volker, Of 1l22 X street
northwest. visited GIymont and She sur
rounding country yesterday and returned
90 the city last night Their efforts 20 find
even a trace OF the boy were without re-
suits The police boat Vigilaut was used
IN dragging the river yesterday. and q
thorough search was made mp and down
the stream. but without any success.
Two colored men informed several OF
the people living IN the neighborhood that
they had seen a boy wandering through
the dense woods Monday afternoon with
nothing on but a bathing suit The po-
lice, however do not place much conf
dence In the stories told by the negroes.
The woods and parts Of the surrounding
country have been gone over 20 a certain
extent. The father still clIngs 70 the
hope that HIS son is alive. and that posi-
bly, he became sick and lost his way.
When It was discovered that young
Volker was missing Monday evening. sew
eral people remembered that during the
afternoon. when quite a crowd Of boys
was i'm swimming, they had seen two
hands appear above the water thTee
times in succession and then disappear.
At that time the witnesses paid no atten-
ton 20 the incident. thinking, Of course,
that the hands had been put up by some
younEster merely trying 10 find the bot
tom Of the river The theory has been
advanced that the hands were those OF
the Volker boy, and that It was his last
effort to saCe himself.
Henry EOlker was a favOrite al the
GonzaEa College, not only with his
schoolmates but among the teachers Of
the institution as well. He graduated
this spring.
