sons why he believed the Russian fleet
was coming up the Straits Of Korea.
and every captain heartily Endorsed his
Judgment, but the Emperor had spoken,
and they must obey him, right or
wrong. There was no alternative.
Togo asked them what they would do
in his place, If the responsibility was
upon them. They answered with one
voice:
"Obey the Emperor"
He dismissed them sadly, again at
firming his determination to meet and
fight the Russians in the straits even
If he had to meet them alone. and
asked them to return for q fnal con-
ference the following morning.
They met again, as before, even more
determined than at the previous coun-
ellis, and, finding himself without sim
gle supporter or sympathizer, Togo an
nounced his intention to solve his d.
lemma by taking his own life. His
judgment as sailor, his conscience as
patriot, would not permit him to
abandon the spot which he had chosen
for an attack upon the Russians. and
his reverence for his sovereign would
not permit him to disobey his maJestys
orders, although he was confident they
were wrong. Therefore he would re-
lieve the situation by suicide, and the
next in command must assume the re-
sponsibility of carrying out the En-
peror's orders.
The admiral's farewell to his COM
mand was interrupted by an orderly,
who brought the news that Rojest-
vensky's ships had been sighted, and
in short hour every captain was at
his post and the line of battle had been
formed. The result is well known.
After the war was over and the ad-
miral returned to Toxic to receive the
honors he had so richly earned, he
asked a private audience Of his SOW
ereign and frankly related the story OF
his disloyalty that I have so tamely
told None but the two men know what
was said at that interview, but it was
satisfactory to both.-William E. Cur
tbs, in the Chicago Record Herald.

Dear husband, we've been here a week
I've had no chance to write,
For things have followed in a streak
To tax me day and night.
Dams had the collie awful bad
From eating unripe ounce.

An ague ever since.

Till she Is most insane,
And poison ivy has made rights

From country fair ice cream.

OF snake fis portion is,
And so you'd better come in haste
As soon as you get this.
Do come and bring the doctor, pray,
Ere things get any worse,
And If you don't come right away
You'd better bring a hearse !"

gods, who Is himself divine, and the
highest object Of reverence. Hence
when Togo received instructions from
his majesty to abandon the strategic an
chOrage he had chosen and cruise down
along the southern coast to await the
mysterious fleet of the enemy, he called
his captains together and laid the facts
before them. He told them that the
information he had received from his
scouts and spies, as well as his own
judgment, convinced him that the Rus
sian fleet was intending to attack him
in the Straits Of Korea, and he had de-
cided to await it there, notwithstand-
ing the orders OF the Mikado. He fully
appreciated the significance and real
lied the penalty Of such unheard of
disObedience, but he believed that his
majesty had acted upon mistaken infor-
nation, and he was willing to- accept
the responsibility of disobeying his or
ders, because the honor, and perhaps
the fate, Of Japan was at stake. He
did not ask any of his captains to share
the awful responsibility with him.
Those who declined to do so would be
relieved of their commands by men who
were willing to make the sacrifice. To
those who would stay by him In de-
fiance Of the Emperor he would be ac-
cordingly grateful. He gave them
twenty-four hours to think the matter
over and consult among themselves.
The captains were so overcome with
amazement at the audacity and the
enormity Of the offense proposed by
their commander that they made no re-
ply. Many Of them left the flagship
suspecting that he had lost his reason.
Even to suggest or to think of doubt
ing the wisdom or of disobeying the
sacred voice Of the Emperor was the
highest treason. and here was Togo de-
liberately determined to defy it. As
may be imagined, nothing else was dis
cussed or even entered the thoughts of
the captains that day, but they were
careful that the cause Of their anxietv
should not become known to their sinh
ordinates. They had no conference. for

one Of them hesitated for an instant
as to the course he should pursue, and

As Togo called them one OTTER anoth-

when he asked their opinion they told
him that they did not believe he could
find single officer upon any OF his
ships who would stand with him
against the orders of the Emperor.
They laid their swords upon his table
and resigned their commands.
With tears rolling down his weather
beaten cheeks, Togo asked them to re-
consider their decision. He argued
with them for an hour, giving the rea-

MANILA, Oct. 4.-The Atlantic bat

hurricane which swept Manila Bay for
twelve hours and did much damage
ashore. Typhoon signals were dis
played early Sunday morning, but the
storm broke over the bay suddenly and
unexpectedly at noon. 1t was impos

belonging to the fleet because of the
danger of smashing them against the
steel sides of the battle ships, and the
little craft were sent scurrying inside
the breawkater to the Pasig river,
where they remained all night. The
storm increased in intensity and the
torrential rains shut in the ships.
At o'clock Sunday night the storm
had reached it's height, and it then
gradually tapered down until at mid
night it was comparatively calm
though heavy seas swung across the
harbor.
During the storm all the battle ships
had steam up, ready for any emerg
