81. PETERSBURG December IL
Admiral Rojestvensky, who during the
Russo-Japanese war led the ill.starred
Russian fleet around Africa to ulti.
mate defeat at the hands of the japan.
ese in the Sea of Japan, is keenly in.
terested in the cruise of the Ameri.
can battleship squadron. He talked
today with the correspondent of the
Associated Press on the matter. From
his own experience Admiral Rojest.
vensky is familiar with the problems
which confront Rear Admiral Evans
and after outlining some of the diff.
culties the American vessels would
have to overcome said he considered
the voyage to the Pacific to be en-.
tirely practicable.
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 a skilled com
mander. This expedition differs from
the trip of the Baltic fleet in that we
were obliged to coal at sea. We were
not permitted to linger even for one
day in the unfrequented Bay of An
nam without brusque orders from the
French governor and the English ad
miral 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 stop
ping places on schedule time. The
struggling due to mechanical defects
he said, will be hard to overcome.
The British fleet. which ranks
among the most efficient in the world
found it necessary to drop the lag
CARDS during it's recent mancuvers
This would be fatal in war time.
The Russian admiral then spoke o
the effect of the American squadron II
the Pacific on the Japanese, and said
while this voyage will be valuable
in welding the fleet into a homogene
GUS weapon, it will have also a high
strategic value in curbing the preten'
sions of the Japanese, whose jngoism

FRANZ JOSEPH WINS
LOVE OF AUSTRIANS
AGED EMPEROR ASSURED OF PUB
Lie DELIGHT OVER RECOVERY
FROM ILLNESS.

VIENNA, December 21.-Emperor
Franz Josef. whose life, two months
ago, was despaired o. drove from the
castle at Schoenbrul. 20 the Hofburg in
Vienna this morning, ana ri the throne
room of the Hofburg, received the
members of the Hungarian and Aus
trian delegations and read to them the
speech from the throne.
This is the first time since his serl-
GUS illness that the emperor has left
Schoenbrun. and the public seized the
opportunity to show its delight at the
recovery of the monarch. The entire
route between the two palaces Was
decorated lavishly.
The houses along the way were
decked with flags and flowers and
dense masses of people thronged the
streets. The windows were crowded
with ladies who waved their hand
kerchiefs as the sovereign drove by,
He was in an open carriage, and he
showed practically no trace of his re-
cent serious illness.
At the Hofburg the emperor alight-
ed briskly from his carriage. Burso-
master Lueger and the membes of the
priyy council awaited the emperor at
the entrance. where Herr Lueger con
graduated him upon his recovery, on
the part of the city of Vienna.
The emperor read the speech from

lions.
The smoothing down of certain
points of differences in the interna-
tional situation continues to progress
in a gratifying manner" he said.
The efforts of ali powers are being
directed to further appeasement and
consolidation for the general peace by
fostering in every way possible OF mu

has noticeably abated since the an
nouncement of the plan"
Rojestvensky disparaged the idea Of
duplicating the battleship squadron,
one for the Atlantic and the other
for the Pacific. He declared that one
fleet would be adequate for the pro
lection of both coasts, and that it's
transfer could be made periodically
with advantage to both ships and
crews. The fleet should have its base
at San Francisco or some other Anne
rican port while in the Pacific. he
said; to station it in the Philippines
would be expensive and unnecessary.
Contrasting the American and Japa-
nese fleets, the Russian admiral said:
'"The Japanese personnel, man for
man, is now undoubtedly more eff
cient than the American, due to prac-
tice in battle; but the American ships
so exceed the Japanese in strength
and numbers that there is no ques-
ton Of American superiority. l con-
slider that the question of war be-
tween Japan and the United States is
quite excluded"
Continuing the conversation, Admi-
raj Rojestvensky said he was opposed
to the rebuilding of the Russian fleet.
He believes that Russia's future will
be on land, and that the money a fleet
would cost would be better spent in
building up a commercial marine.
I'VE may spend four or five mil
lizards in the next ten years" Admiral
Rojestvensky went on, "as it is pro
posed to overwhelm Russia with debt
in order to secure a fleet stronger
than Japan's, but the future of our
Asiatic possessions will be determin'
ed bv the army, not by the navy
Russia is doing nothing to strength
en- her army. We are holding $780,
600 soldiers on the Polish frontier, a
million in Russian Turkestan, and only
$4,000 in all Siberia, where the Cri-
nese and Japanese are building up a
portentous military power"
"But will the Russian fleet be re-
constructed? was asked
ALAS. yes" replied the admiral
unfortunately there are many people
in Russia who wish TO MI their poe
kets. and the execution of a big ma
val program will give them a glorious
opportunity"

Japan HAS
TAKEN HAWAII"
THE NEWS COMES WASHINGTON, FROM THE MOUTH OF
MERRIMAC HoBsoN MEMBER CONGRESS FROM ALABAMA
TRAINED" JAPANESE HERE AND
WAR Is INEVITABLE

WASHINGTON, Dec 17.-That war
with Japan is almost inevitable, that
Japan is simply aching for war with
this country, and that in our present
unprepared and defenseless state Jap
an could not only take the Philippines
country without much resistance, were
some of the suggestions offered by
Richmond p Hobson, representative
in Congress from Alabama, and OF
Merrimac fame, in an address at the
University Club, 10th and X streets
northwest, last night
The theme of Mr.. Hobson's address
was THE Sailing of the Fleet" and 1t
was expected that he would give a
graphic account of the long cruise in
prospect but he turned his attention
to describing what the significance at
tached to such a movement is and
what the poss BILE outcome will be. He
declared that the sailing of this fleet
is more than naval pageant, more
than a practical demonstration of rne
efficiency of our battleships and men.
1T means he declared, "tnat Am
erica has at last awakened to the fact
that the dangers on the Pacific have
increased far greater than they have
on the Atlantic, and that America has
taken upon herself to become the bull
wark against the progress of the peril
of the orient, to save not only this ma
ton, but the entire white race from
humiliation. When the fleet arrives
in the Pacific Japan's warlike attitude
and chances may not be so strong,
he said.
More than $50 members of the Uni
versity Club and the invited guests
were present, and Mr.. Hobson analy-
sis of the situation was applauded
many times. Among the prom nent
persons present were: Senator Thorn
as T. Carter of Montana, ex-senator
Stewart of Nevada and Surgeon Gen.
Wyman. Jonn K. Stauffer presided.
Mr.. Hobson said Japan is aggres-
sive toward the outside world and
will be for centuries TO come, and that
she is training the Chinaman to hate
the white man; that it is likely she
will have ENLISTED the interests of In
d and Africa before long. She in
stigated the Boxer troubles in China, ''
ne said, "as we'll as the more recent
boycott of America. Japan particular
ly hates the American. She is ready
for war with us, except justifiable
pretext before the world. Great Brit
ain has such a treaty with Japan that
she will nave to help her eastern ally
in any war the latter desires to make.

many are allied to drive the American

Methodism's Wonderful Spread.

FROM Leenes w eekly.
Methodism spread to. Britain's Amerir
can colonies quickly, and 1t eventually
gained a far larger constituency here
than it has in any other country in the
world. Its democratic spirit and its ready
adaptabiity to all sorts of society. from
the most primitive to the most highly
organized. eventually gave IL an ascend
ency among the Protestant denominations
which il still holds. In many parts OF
the earlier settlements west OF the Allie.
ghanies the first sanctuaries were those
of the Methodist Church. That church
has been on the front line in the advance
Of civilization in its march across the
continent. Among its prelates are many
men who have exerted, and who are now
exerting. a profound influence In the;
countrys affairs. Presidents Johnson
Grant, Hayes and Mckinley were menu
bers of the Methodist Church. In every
crisis Of the countrys history. from Lex
ingnon to Sumter. and from Sumter to
Manila and Santiago. Methodists have
been conspicuous in upholding the coun-i
try's dignity and power. and in making It
the leader of the worlds civilization and
progress. The general conference Of the-.
Methodist Church takes place every four
years. The recent gathering al Balti-
more deserved the worlds attention "
received. 3
