AGAIN on PAY ROLL
Two Discharged Revenue Of
fiCerS Have Been Re-
inStated.
ACTION IS A SURPRISE
Especial correspondent.)


indianapolis, April pa. A. Phil
lips, of Noblesville, and A. Elliott, Of
Paramount, two former revenue office
employees at Lawrenceburg, who are
let out last fall during the heat of the
political campaign, have been notified
from Washington that they have been
reinstated in their positions. The
word came as surprise to the politi-
clans OF this city. Elan Neal, reve-
nue. collector for the Sixth district,
said that last year reports reached
him that the two men were travelling
around over the state doing political
work, and that he understood that this
was the cause of their being let out.
It was reported that the men sent in
their expense accounts to the govern
ment while they were doing the politi-
cal work, but Neal says he never heard
of that feature of the case.
Anyhow, they are to go back to
work with their records cleared. A
representative of the Government
went to Lawrenceburg some time ago
and Investigated the case. and it was
on his report that the reinstatements
were made.

AMERICAN HOW THE JAPS
RAISED SUNkEN SHIPS At
PORT ARTHUR.

Los Angeles, CAL, April T.-Rear
H. E. Ijichi, commander of
the Japanese training squadron now at
San Pedro. had a long talk yesterday
with Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans.
The two rear admirals, who are old
friends and who are staying at the
same hotel, discussed international
questions, including the possibility of
war between the United States and ia
pan. They agreed that war between
the two nations is impossible.
Admiral Ijichi told Admiral Evans
he was delighted with his reception at
Los Angeles. He commented upon the
apparent friendliness Of the officials
as well as the press and public, and
predicted that he and his men would
be equally we'll received at other
American ports.
Raising Sunken Russian Ships.
II would like to know inquired Ad-
miral Evans. how your people sue
ceeded in raising the Russian ships
which you sunk and in what condition
you found Them
Admiral Ijichi replied:
I'VE raised the sunken battleships
and cruisers at Port Arthur and Che
mulpo without any great difficulty. We
found those at Port Arthur we're not
sunk by the mortar fire directed upon
them from DOB Meter Hill. None Of
the shells penetrated the protected
decks. although the superstructure and
gun mountings were shattered badly.
The ships were sunk by the Rus
sions by opening the seacocks when
they found the port must fall into our
hands. After raising the ships we
found that the projectiles had pene-
trated the wooden decks, but had fiat
tened out against the steel and were
lying there. 1t evidently would not
have been possible to sink the ships by
the fire from the heights"
