This startling statement, made by
Harley street specialist, knocks on

Hitherto 1t has always been sup

of civilization. The man, It was

Apparently however the ideal is u
false one.
Suppressed emotion under the
constant worry, anxiety, and wear
and tear OF modern liie, may be good
form but it Is exceedingly danger

"Take anger, for instance. From
our cradles we have been taught to

who cannot govern his temper will
never govern anything" and all the

Nothing could be more absurd

Suppressed anger produces blood

CONDEMNED TO DEATH.

Lieutenant General Stotssel was con-
demued to death yesterday evening by
a military court at st. Petersburg for The
surrender of Port Arthur to the Japs-
nose. General Fock, who commanded
the Fourth East siberisn Division Of

connected with the surrender, and
General SmiInof, setting commsndant OF
the fortress, and Major General Rsiss,
chief OF stsf to General Stoessel, were
acquitted of the charges against them
for lack OF proof. The court recon-
mended that the death sentence upon
Lieutenant General Stoessel be committed
to 10 years imprisonment 10 fortress
and that he be excluded from the service.
The sentence of death was pronounced
upon General Stoessel "for snrrendering
The fortress before all the means of de-
feDse had been exhausted, for failing to
enforce biz authority and for military
misdemeanoFs.
Communication Of the sentence was
asked on the ground that Port Arthur,

itself under General StoessePs leadership
with .unexampled stubbornuess and
filed the world With establishment at

several assaults had been repulSed with
tremendous Losses on The part Of the

PROPOSED REDUCTION IN
WAGES.

Representatives of the Brotherh God Of
Locomotive Engineers, some Of whom
were from Alexandra, were In confer
ence yesterday with General Manager
Ackeri, of the Southern Railway, in
Washing on, with reference to an agree
ment on the wage reduction of the en-
gineers employed on the road. No def
mite agreement was reached, Is Mr..
Ackert merely outlined the necessity for
reduction In the wages of ell employees
on the system, owing to the financial
stringency, aud asked the men to take
the matter under adv;sement. The prop
osilion submitted is said to have been
similar to that made the machinists aud
involves a return IN the scale OF wages
in 'ffsc! October, 1906, or a reduction
amounting to 7 per cent. The machin-
lists did not agree to accept the reduction,
bu, the proposition was taken to the
various shops, where it will be submit
ted to the workmen.
Industrial sad financial circles in
Washington were more OF less concern
ed yesterday over what they regard as q
prospect that the railroads of the coun-
try hsve in contemplation q general re-
duction 10 the wages Of their employees.
Such apprehension ia said to be practi-
csliy grOunoless. lnIC.- 'tiou which
bss reached the Interstate Commerce
Commission, particularly, ard other
officials Of the government who have g
direct or indirect interest ia industrial
and railway matters indicates clearly that
there Is no concerted action on the part
Of American railways to make general
changes in their wage scales at this time
or in the near future. Instances OF pro-
posed REIMBURSEMENT OF wsge scales are
cited in the caees Of four Southern sys-
TENS, the Southern Rsilwsv, the Louis
Vile and Nsshville, the Seabosrd Air
Line, and the Atlsniic Coast Line being
named as practically the only roads in
the country which may be affected Il
is the intention of the officials OF tie
lines named to consider with their en-
ployees the question of REIMBURSEMENT
Of some, at least, of the wage scales now
IN force, with view to reducing their
operating expenses, which they regard
IS necessary.

fl st. Petersburg yesterday evening
Ijsu,ensDt General Stoessel was con-
dsmued TO death by military court Tor
the surrender of Port Arthur to the
japanese. The court, however, recon-
msaded that the death sentence be COM
mu,ed to ten years imprisonment in o
fortress and that ne be excluded from
the service. Daring the siege OF Port
Arthur and for a time sfierwsrd Gen.
eioesssl was regarded by The world at
large as one of the foremost and truly
heroic figures of that war on the Rus
alan side-a man whose enduring virtue
and stubborn valor went far toward re-
desming the Russian army from the
reproaches which unworthy leaders, de-
r,,,slized forcee and successive disasters
brought upon it. When the awful
defeats of Moukden and the Lao Yang
,zs,e recalled there WAS always the
suoerb defence of Port Arthur to coun-
terbslance them. Men were beginning
to rank Port Arthur with sebsstopol
and Gibraltar, for the almost super
human power and courage of its resist
suce TO an ell but irresistible foe. That,
as understood, generally, was the esti-
mate of the japanese themselves, as OF
the rest of the world, only a year or two
$50. And DOW Now 1t is asserted,
with sll the weight of deliberate judicial
findings, that the famous fortress might
have held cut longer, that 1t was be-
trayed through cOwardice, and that the
man who betrayed it wss no other than
General Stoessel himself. If anyIhir 6
more bumilisting TO humanity is to be
aided. i. is that This commander and bis
