WARM WELCOME
BY AUSTRALIA
RECEPTION TO THE BIG FLEET
IN COLONIES WILL BE VERY
ENTHUSIASTIC.

SYDNEY, March 1o.-There was a
dramatic scene today at a great gath
eriug of citizens when, at the'conclu-
sion of an address on the subject of
national defense, the Premier, Alfred
Deakin, read a cablegram announcing
that the American fleet of battleships
would visit Sydney and Melbourne. He
called for three cheers for the United
States, and the audience rose en- masse
and responded with deafening hurrahs.
The Prime Minister said that he was
sure that such welcome as an Ameri-
can fleet had never known outside OF
it's own country would be accorded it
by Australia, and the cheering tina,
followed this statement seemed evil
dence of the fact that the Australians,
one and all, have a feeling stronger
and mere friendship for the American
people and their Navy.
Premier Dealln in mis- speech advo-
Gated greater expenditures for national
defense. He said that the burden inn
posed upon the people of Great Britain
for the maintenance of their naval and
military forces was beginning to tell,
and that wealthy Australians could
not expect to enjoy the privileges OF
protection against invasion without
bearing their share of the cost. The
expenditure recommended is $9,6O0,0OO
annually for an army of 10000 men
and fifteen coast defense vessels.
MELBOURNE, March 15.-The Aus
tralian Commonwealth officially and
generally halls with pleasure the In
formation from Washington that the
American battle-ship fleet will visit
the Antipodes next July or August.
The Federal Ministers are delighted
with the idea of the visit, the Minister
of Defense, Thomas Ewing, saying that
the presence of Americas fleet would
be most gratifying to all Australians.
1--WE feel that our future in the Paci-
fic," he said, SIS bound up with that OF
| the United States"

Duel OF
RUSSIAN GENERALS

10 sS ~, aB1@- -. d..
ST. PETERSBURG, March 1S.-Lieu.
tenant-General Focll and Lieutenant
General Smirnoff today fought duel
that will go on record as one of the
most remarkable meetings on the field
of honor. At the fourth exchange of
shots, Smirnoff fell, probably fatally
wounded. Fock retired without
scratch, ready for another meeting, his
next antagonist being General Cor
batoffsky, with whom Fock has a bit
ter quarrel to settle.
Women of title, military officers Of
highest rank and other persons promi-
nent in official and social life of st.
Petersburg sat today as spectators in
the riding school of the Cheyalier
Guard regiment and watched with in
tense interest, as General Fock and
Smirnoff, who had both won fame on
the battle field and helped make his
tory at the siege of Port Arthur, faced
each other at twenty PAGES in a pistol
fight which it was agreed was to be 70
the death.
The duel concerned not only the two
principals and their friends, but the
entire army. All present were there by
invitation. The riding school was
placed at the disposal of the COM
batants by the commander of the
Chevalier Guard regiment. The duel oc-
Cured with the full knowledge and
appreciation of the military authorities.
Today's affair was the consequence
of the bitter feeling manifested bv
army officers over the recent trial of
Generals Stoessel, Fock, Reiss and
Smirnoff on charges arising out of the
surrender of Port Arthur. Fock chal-
lenged Smirnoff because of a secret
memorandum which he prepared and
placed in the hands of the Judges OF
the court-martial. Fock considered
that Smirnoff made statements deroga-
tory to his honor and courage.
Shortly before 10 o'clock Generals
Fock and Smirnoff appeared at the
school. Without saluting, they took
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-03-27

the places assigned by their seconds.
For General Smirnoff the seconds were
his brother-in-law, Vladimir NJ. Purisn-
kevich, member of the Douma, and
Captain SchulUze of the navy, while for
General Fock, Captain Sido, Adjutant
to General Stoessel, and Lieutenant
Podgursky, one of the Port Arthur he
roes, officiated. The distance between
the two combatants was twenty PAGES,
and the duelists were instructed TO
open fire at the word of command and
continue until one or the other was
killed.
The word fire" was given each time
by General Kireieff, the Russian au-
thority on dueling. AT the second
exchange General Fock's coat was per-
forated. At the third exchange Cen
eral Smirnoff accidentally fired prema-
turely, but General Fock magnanl-
mously declined to shoot at a defense
less opponent.
At General FocK's fourth shot Cen
eral SmirnOff groaned and sank for
ward. He had been wounded in the
abdomen above the right hip. He was
carried in a litter to the military hos
pital, where doctors this afternoon en-
ployed Roentgen rays to locate the
bullet.
Up to a late hour tonight no opera
ton, has been attempted on the
wounded man. The doctors wish to
make further examination with the
X-rays before attempting to extract
the bullet. They announced, however
that there is no reason for alarm. The
patient is cheerful.
This duel will be followed by an
other between General Fock and Gen
eral Gorbatoffsky, the commander OF
the Western front at Port Arthur, who
was severely criticized by General
Fock during the court-martial pro-
ceedings. General Gorbatoffsky sent
seconds some time ago to General
Fock, but be failed to secure per-
mission to fight duel
