Engines Are Disabled.
The steamer left port in a gale.
/ Tremendous seas were breaking over

pass into the ocean. Those on shore
who had gathered TO watch the depart
ure of the boat were startled to SEQ
the Czarfna sweeping toward the north
spit. Its engines apparently had been

most to envelop the steamer and It
drifted rapidly on the spit at a point
about mile above the jetty.

to shoot a life line across the vessel
also failed.

country realizes this, so of course Nj.
Taft and his advisers know it, too.
Foreseeing that it must be Taft or
Roosevelt, Mr. Taft and his friends
are doing what any other politicians
would do under the same circum-

Mr.. Taft. with able assistance, is using

Denver, Col, Jan. 13.-A resolution
presented to the National Live Stock
association endorsing the Pinchot ad-
ministration of the forest service and
urging federal control of range lands
met with strong opposition from Col

owned by them, but now grown too
valuable for grazing purposes.

Work of Day in Congress

Washington. Jan. 13.-Following is
summary of the proceedings of the two
houses of congress yesterday, taken
from the official records:
sENATE-In the senate the greater
part Of the session was taken up by
the introduction OF new bills. The res
olution calling upon the secretary OF
the treasury 20 certify to the claims
for extra allowances for postmasteTs
who served from 1864 TO 1874 was dis
cussed at length. 4 resolution formally
accepting the statue OF General Lew
Wallace. placed in Statuary hall Tues
day. was passed.
HOUSE The house could not agree
on the senate's amendments 70 the Bal
linger- Pinchct inquiry resolution. aud

RUSSIANS AND
JAPS AGREE ON
THE OPEN DOOR?

Toxic, Jan. 13.-There is reason to
believe Japan and Russia have reach
ed complete agreement on the sub
ject of the naturalization of the Man
churian railway, as proposed by the
United States. Newspapers here gen
orally admit the benevolent intentions
of Secretary Knox. but there is no evil
dence of lessening of opposition 10
his plan on the grounds of sentiment
and impracticability.

ed to carry any criticism of Mr.. Taft,
or of anyone. 1t is all in the game of
politics as it is played in the United
States. and Mr.. Roosevelt would do
the same thing under the same circum-
stances. Mr.. Taft's activity is here de-
scribed simply because it is the fact,
and an interesting thing to know.
The man whom Mr.. Taft depends
upon to pack the next republican ma
tional convention against Roosevelt is
Postmaster General Frank Hitchcock,
who has a natural talent for such work.
This is the test Mr.. Hitchcock applies
to applicants for federal positions: "If
you should be sent 10 the republican
national convention, or your political

Washington, Jan. 11.-Back of the
action of President Taft in openly de-
claring war on the insurgents stalks
the ghost political of Theodore Roose-
welt.
Mr.. Taft wants second term in the
White house, which is q perfectly nat
ural and highly laudable ambition, and
is here chronicled merely because it is
the fact. Wanting the job himself. it
is also natural and human that Mr..
Taft does not wish anyone else to beat
him out of it-and that he is going to
take every possible precaution in an
endeavor to prevent anyone from do
ing so.
