POTENTIALITIES

Russia, In her dark autocraey, Is
little understood by the rest of the
world. Her form OF government ia
so arrogant and SO despotic as to
cause the people OF this republic to
consider 1t with aversion. All that
Russin needs is constitutional mon
archy or some form of popular govern
ment with an infusion OF protestant
ism, and the var. despotism of the
czar will become the land OF the free
and the happy.
Potentially. Russia Ia the mightiest
nation OF the future. we repeat
potentially. II Russia had the plan
OF government and the patriotism OF
little Switzerland, il would iadesd be
q mighty nation, we might say a SUBJ
lime world power.
Its brute strength today Is difficult
to compute, almost impossible to COM
prehend. Ages OF exploitation will
not succeed in exhsusting Russia,s
possibilities OF commercial expan-
sion.
Russia has 900. 100000 acres of tim
Der land and under the plcw in Rus
sia are 250,O00.00 acres, while twice
that amount is being cultivated In the
United States and this country has
only 8S,000,000 acres OF forest. 1t is
said that Russia can expand twice her
amount OF cultivated land and yet
have virgin soil for generations.
The population OF Russia is 185, ,Ooo,-
600. increasing at the, rate OF 5000 900
year. This population. enormous as
1t Is, does seem so "teeming" in a
country OF S.650.00o square miles, an
area two and half times as large
as the United States with her 900 ,0oo.-
600.
4 In addition. tc her timber and her
untouched agricultural possibilities,
Russia abounds in minerals, oils and
fuels in illimitable prcfusion. Should
some chance of fate cause Russia to
lose her autocracy, should the dark

American Animals May Now
Demonstrate Own Qualities,
Says Department.

Although the war has stopped impor-
tation of 'blue-blooded'' breeding
horses. the Department Of Agriculture
announces today that importations arc
no longer believed necessary and that
the American draft horse will now
have an opportunity to demonstrate its
own qualities" Imports Of French and
Belgian breeding horses have ceased al
together, although a few are still being
bought in England. Before the war
annual imports averaged from $500 to
1000
Hitherto" the departments report
says. "a certain fascination has hung
over the word imported which has
had a marked effect upon prices. For
example, an imported Percheron stall
lion might sell for 81 600. where an
would bring only 81. 200 to $500.
I'VE no longer go to England and
Scotland for shorthorn Hereford and
cattle, except to a
very limited extent. The American
breeders are producing the equal, II not
the superior Of the English cattle.
There Is no apparent reason why the
same thing should not take place In
the case Of draft horses. The principal
breeds Of these are now firmly estab-
lished IN the United States. Experts
in the department believe that importa-
tons are no longer necessary"
Farmers bulletin 619, just issued. deals
with breeds of draft horses already In
troduced in this country, and VIII be
sent free to breeders who wish to know
how to hold the American market.

FIRE IN DORM|TORY
ALARMS 100 GIRLS
Flames at Howard University
Leap High Over Building in
Spectacular Blaze.

Spontaneous combustion is believed to
have caused fire which did 5000 dam
age to Minor Hall, the girls dormi-
tory at Howard University, last even
ing.
The fire started about $50 o'clock in a
pile of mattresses stored in the attic.
The building Is a three-story and base
ment brick and the flames were first
seen just below a large wooden cupola.
A telephone message was sent to fire
alarm headquarters. but Immediately
after the arrival Of the first companies
three regular alarms were sounded.
The fire caused much excitement
among over 100 women and girls who
occupy the building, most Of whom
were in their rooms at the time. The
fire was confined to the south end of
the building. The flames. shooting high
in the air from the wooden cupola,
made a spectacular blaze, which could
be seen all over the northwest section
of the city. and attracted a large
crowd.

fotilla relatively and actually very
powerful. Englands fleet is more than
twice as great as that of this country.
yet she has but little more than half as
many more submarines. France has a
considerably larger submarine fleet
than ours, with a smaller navy, but
she has in the past taken the lead in
submarine building, and this lead Eng
land has overcome, and We are on that
road. Germany, with a more powerful
fleet than ours, has many less subma-
rines, and Japan, with a fleet approach
ing ours in strength, has only half as
many submarines.
But as an indication that he Is fully
alive to the needs Of increasing the
size of the submarine fiotilla, Secretary
Daniels added:
"Harbors and coasts to be defended
must be considered, and the United
States, with long coast lines and many
harbors. may need rather more than
proportional number Of submarines.
Naval experts refuse to make public
just what plans the Government would
follow in utilizing submarines Tor
guarding the entire nations coast lines.
But, in explanation Of the estimate
given by one official Of the need OF
100 submarines on the Atlantic and 1Oo
on the Pacific. it is said that there are
already available on the coasts pro-
tected harbors for these small craft.

SOLONS CLAN THEY
DOOMED SUBMARINES
Senators and Congressman In
sist Navy Department Was
Indifferent to New Vessel.

Members Of the Naval Affairs Com
mitees of Congress have taken excep-
ton to a statement issued by Secretary
of the Navy Daniels in which inferen-
TALLY the Navy Department takes cred
1t for building up the present submarine
flotilla. The Secretary's statement,
which was in answer to criticism OF
the navy for failing to build enough
submarines, declared that 'since 1900
the general board Of the navy has
furnished a consistent and continuing
program, which fully recognized the i'm
portance Of destroyers and submarines"
and that it has annually recommended
additional submarines and tenders for
submarines
The truth is, these members say, that
Congress is really responsible for the
recognition of the submarine by this
Government: In the Secretary's report.
December Is, they point out. he asked
for three submarines and Congress au-
thor1zed eight. In 1912 no recommended
ton for submarines was contained in
the Secretary's estimates, and Con-
gress authorized four submarine torpedo
boats. In 1911 no submarines were
included among estimates and Congress
authorized eight. In 1910 the depart
ment submitted estimates for two SUBJ
marine torpedo boats, and Congress au-
thorized four
Not only are the House and Senate
Naval Committees entitled to credit
for recognizing the importance of sub
marines. but members of the commit
tee point out that the United States Is
indebted to these committees for recog-
milton in the first instance, when the
original submarine boat, the Holland,
was brought around to washington and
in the face of departmental indifference,
exhibited to Congress.
In 1900 Congress directed the pur-
chase Of this exhibition boat and au-
thorized the purchase Of five addi-
tional and improved Hollands. This
was the first step in the acquisition by
this Government Of q flotilla of these
boats. and IT was on the heels of this
action by Congress that the British
government took up the submarine.

attacking the land Notifications from
the rear. one of the dangers to which
army experts have admitted the few
coast defenses have been exposed.
Sea Going Type.
One of the submarines which will be
contracted for this winter is Of the
larger type designed to accompany the
feet. The others are Of the smaller,
coast defense type, whose utility at sea
was proved a few years ago by an 800
mile trial trip to the Bermudas, made
by one Of the little boats. This demon
stration Of misunderstanding powers is
advanced as an illustration Of what q
fleet Of 100 such boats could do If sta
toned along the Atlantic coast.
The comparatively small initial cost
and the low cost Of maintenance Of a
submarine, as compared with the new
superdreadnoCghts is advanced as an
other argument. Secretary Daniels re-
Gently reported the complete cost Of a
beat of the new superdreadnought
type to be from $14 0OO0 900 to SIG, 000. O00
Such a boat as the Pennsylvania, with
sixty-five officers and a crew Of 972
men costs about 81 900, 900 q year for
The initial cost Of the coast
defense type Of submarine is about $780,
900 and the annual cost Of maintenance
about s25, 900. The sea-going type Of sub
marine cost about 81 zoe, 900, and the cost
Of maintenance is relatively larger.
