the curving harbor of (iolden Horn,

SPRANG TRAP ON RUSSIANS.
Togo Also Used Submarines and Tor
pedoes with Deadly Effect.
Tokio, May 'A I .The proverb that
Admiral Togo always lights and seldom
reiHirts is proving true in the case of
his greatest battle. From the briefest
ami mosi iragmentary reports coming
to Tokio, it is impossible to gain an
approximate conception or picture of
the de)erate and decisive combat.
The Navy department, after announcing
thu bare results yesterday, has lapsed
into silence again. It meets inquirer
w ith the statement that the department
is not interested in the publication of
news, but is concerned only in securing
victory for Japan. It is probable that
many details of the fight will never Iw
given to the world. .It will probably
!u days or weeks before the main facts
of the battle and its strategy are made
known.
Admiral Togo appears to have plan
ned and laid a complete trap, which
fitted Admiral KoieHtvensky's action,
and the Japanese outmanetivered, out'
fought and outshot the Russians, fear
icHsiy taking tiieir lightest cruisers
against the heavy Russian armor-clad
battleships and joining battleships with
armored cruisers, smothering them
with gun Are.
WILL RAISE PRICE OF PEACE.
Japan's Victory Increases Severity of
Terms Demanded.
Washington, May 31. Minister
Takahira had an hour's conference
with President Roosevelt tonight. The
minister reached the White house at i
o'clock and remained until after 10
o'clock. Mr. Takahira refused to say
anything regarding the object of his
visit.
There is reason to Wlieve the ques
tion of peuce was under consideration,
the object of the minister being to in
form the president that the old basis on
which Japan would begin negotiations
would not now be acceptable. It is be
lieved that with the latest decisive
naval victory, the demands of Japan
will be materially increased, and in
clude a large indemnity in addition to
the retention of Port Arthur and the
evacuation by Russia of Manchuria.
Dispute Over Price of Salmon.
New Westminster, 11. C, May 31.
Trouble between the fishermen and the
cannerymcn may end in a strike. The
difference concerns prices for fish dur
ing the big run of the season. The
fishermen met today and decided on 10
cents straight for finh for July and 15
cents for AuguBt. The cannerymeu
and packers declare the entire season's
rate must be 8 cents per fish. Trouble
is just commencing, and promises to
get hot. During the last big run the
militia had to be called out for the
same trouble.
Agricultural Congress Opens.
Rome, May 31. The firt working
session of the international congress.
made at the instigation of David Lubin,
of Sacramento, Cal to establish an
International Chamber of Agriculture,
took place this afternoon at the Corsica
palace, in the presence of the diplomat
ic corps and all the delegates. Kx
Minister Tittonl delivered an address
welcoming the delegates and outlining
the object of the congress, after which
the meeting adjourned.
Will March Into Mongolia.
New York, May 31. The Chinese
authorities deny that they have receiv
ed f jin Russia a positive notice of the
intention to march troops into Mongo
lia, cables the Pekin correspondent of
the Herald. On the other hand, the
foreign ofllce is deluged with charges
and counter charges relative to alleged
breaches of neutrality by both Russians
and Japanese.
ROJESTVENSKY LOST
Remnants ol Ills Shattered Fleet
Flying for Refuge.
TORPEDOES DID SPLENDID WORK
Togo Sunk or Captured Nineteen of
Russia's Vessels, Including
Admiral's Flagship.
Washington, May 30. The Post says
the Navy department has received an
official telegram from Tokio saying
that the battleship Knia. Houvaroff,
Admiral Rojestvensky's flagship, went
down in the action, and that Admiral
RojeHtvensky was lost.
Ioudon, May 30. According to the
correspondent of the Daily Mail at
Seoul, Corca, early on Saturday morn
ing Vice Admiral Togo, with practi
cally all the powerful fighting ships of
theJatiamse navv, wan at Masanpho,
Corca. when wireless signals from his
scouts between Tsil and (uelpart is
lands announced the approach f the
iCusMian fleet in full force.
A few hours later the scouts report
el that the Russians were not ascend
ing the wcHtern channel, as had been
anticipated, lut that tliey were coming
up the eastern channel, which caused
some surprise.
Admiral Togo immediately started at
full speed around thu north ol isu is
land, and when be doubled the island
he saw the Russians coming in two col
limns. He then brought a terrific fire
to bear on the flank of the iort col
umn, and, as the Russians fell into dis
order, bu forced them steadily eastward
tow ard the Japanese coast, w here they
were attacked by every vessel that flew
the Japanese flag.
Repeated torjedo attacks were deliv
ered, some of them with the greatest
success.
The vessels which escaped, the cor
respondent says, will probably be able
to reach Vladivostok and he adds that
other operations of the utmost import
ance are proceeding.
IN DEPTHS OF WOE.
Russia is Downcast at News of Lost
Naval Battle.
St. Petersburg, May 30. After wait
ing vainly all day and evening for di
rect news of ice Admiral Rojest
vensky's destroyed and beaten fleet,
the uussian admiralty at midnight no
longer attempted to hold out against
the overwhelming evidence pouring in
from all directions that the fleet, on
which all their hopes were centered,
had Buffered a greater disaster than did
the combined French and Spanish
fleets at Trafalgar. More bitter even
than defeat is .the Japanese claim of
virtual annihilation of the Russian fleet
with practically no losses on their side,
and many officers cling doggedly to the
Itelief that Vice Admiral Togo might
have suffered heavily.
With every ship of Rear Admiral
Nebogatoff'8 reinforcing division either
sent to the bottom or forced to strike
its flag, and only six of Rojestvensky's
original It! fighting ships absent from
the list of vessels sunk or captured,
and with the Japanese pursuit still
continuing, no naval authority has the
temerity to dream that Russia can
again attempt to wrest the mastery of
the sea from Japan in the present war.
The captured warships alone will
furnish Japan with ready made rein
forcements, w hich will be more than a
match for the fourth Pacific squadron
now about to sail from Cronstadt.
The emperor was completely pros
trated by the news, and, according to
reportB, lie broke down and wept.
The effect of the disaster will be a
terrible blow to the government. The
futility of trying to struggle on on land
is everywhere recognized, and the cry
for "peace at any price" is sure to be
raised. This time, it is believed, the
government cannot resist the cry. In
deed, the radical Liberals are openly
rejoicing in this hour of their country s
humiliation.
Lost Ships Number Nineteen,
Tokio, May 30. The number of
Russian vessels of all descriptions sunk
and captured by Admiral Togo's lleet
now stands at 10. It is possible that
three additional warships were sunk in
the fight Saturday, and others later.
The Navy department refrains, how
ever, from crediting reports of this
nature until it ia assured of their cor
rectness. It is believed that the Ural
is the name of the captured transport,
which has been omitted in the 1 tat pre
viously cabled. The number of pris
oner taden will roach over 3,000.
Russian Version of Battle.
St. Petersburg, May 30. The St.
Petersburg Telegraph agency has re
ceived the following from Shanghai:
"Word has been received here that
seven Japanese ships, two of which
were armored, and four Russian ships
have been sunk. It is confidently
believed here that the Japanese are
awaiting the publication of Vice Ad
miral Rojestvensky's official dispatch
from Vldaivostok before admitting the
extent of their own losses."
All Found Not Guilty.
, Trenton, N. J., May 30. II. J.
Stone, II. C. Quintard, Charles W.
Rubs and James Rubs, of the Nonpareil
Cork works, of Camden, N. J., tried on
a charge of conspiracy, were acquitted
tonight. They were accused of placing
rion in life preservers.
CHEAP RATES FOR CANAL ROAD
Manufacturers Convinced That Canal
Zone Is Foreign Territory.
Washington, May 30. In view of the
published intention of the Isthmian
Canal commission to buy in the cheap
est market, there have been a great
many inquiries as to the price of steel
rails, one of the principal articles of
supply which figured in the commis
sion's determination.
Colonel Ivl wards, administrative offi
cer of the Canal com ruins ion, addressed
an inquiry to Secretary Drake, of the
Panama Railroad company, intended to
elicit information on this oint. He re
ceved a reply which in substance is
that the price of steel rails in the
United States for the past 12 months
has )een uniform at 2H per ton, while
in foreign makerts the price wan $24
per ton. The exceptions were where
rails were sold in the United States for
export, when the prices were estab
lished by direct negotiation and were
matters of private record.
The Panama Railroad company con
vince' the manufacturers that its rails
.were purhased for export to foreign ter
ritory (which, Mr. Drake says, Colon
is), and was able to get in June last
70-pound rails for f 22.50 for first qual
ity and $21.75 for second quality.
Last January it bought 1,200 tons at
25 for first class and 2A for second
class, and more recently purchased
2,500 tons for the Canal commission
and 3,500 for the railroad at $20.45,
all three contracts being made in com
petition w ith foreign bidders, whose list
price was $25 for f. c b. at New York
or $27.75 c. i. f. at Colon, exclusive of
w hurfagu and port charges.
END NOT IN SIGHT.
Chicago Labor Unions All Planning
for a Long Struggle.
Chicago, May 30. Nothing devel
oped today that would indicate an im
mediate settlement of the teamsters'
strike, which has been in progress for
nearly two months. That the labor
unions are of the belief that the fight
will be a long one was demonstrated at
the meeting of the Chicago Federation
of Labor today, when arrangements
were made for holding a strike demon
stration July 5. According to the pres
ent plans it is the intention to hold a
monster parade of the strikers and the
affiliated unions unless the controversy
has been ended before that date.
At the meeting today each , union
affiliated with the central body was
represented by three delegates at the
request of President Dold. The strike
situation was discussed in all its de
tails and the sentiment of the meeting
was that the teamsters should continue
the fight until the seven express com
panies should offer some sort of a com
promise. The officials of the express
companies are still obdurate in their
declaration that no concessions need be
looked for from their side, so the mat
ter of settlement through this channel
seems as remote as ever.
ELKINS IS OPPOSED.
He Tells President Why Extra Session
is Unnecessary.
Washington, May 30. Senator El
kins, chairman of the Interstate Com
merce commission, in a conference told
the president that his commission
would reassemble two or three weeks
before the next session of congress,
whether it be extraordinary or regular,
and report on the recent hearings on
railroad rate legislation. At that ses
sion of the commission the nature of
the bill to be submitted to the senate
will be determined.
Senator Eklins urged the president
not to call congress into extraordinary
session, maintaining that, as the ses
sion beginning on me nrst Monday in
December would be the long session,
congress would have ample time to
consider all questions of importance
without a special session. He ex
pressed to the president the opinion
that senators and representatives gen
eral ly hoped the president would not
call them into extraordinary session.
Senator Cullom, of Illinois, who
talked briefly to the president, ex
pressed the same wish.
The president has not indicated defi
nitely his purpose as to calling an extra
ordinary Bession, although he has con
sidered seriously the fixing of the date
about the middle of October.
Opinion on Calchas Case.
St. Petersburg, May 30. The writ
ten opinion of the Superior Admiralty
court in the case of the cotton found
on the Uritish steamer Calchas captured
by the Vladivostok squadron is expect
ed to be handed down some time this
week. There appeared to be a division
of opinion in the court, M. Demartens,
in behalf of the foreign office, holding
to the view that the principle of the
conditional contraband for cotton should
be enunciated, while the representa
tives of the admiralty contend that
this principle is absolute.
Name of Vessel Not Known.
Tokio, May 30. The name and des
tination of the American steamer w hich
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky is reported
to have sunk off Formosa about May 21
is unknown here. Details concerning
the sinking of the vessel are expected
to be made known when the crew of
the steamer reaches Japan. Although
nothing is known here about the case,
it is expected in official circles that
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky will allege
the vessel was cruising.
Sinking Confirmed at Washington.
Washington, Mayj30. Confirmation
has been received here from Shanghai
of the press report that the Russian
warships have sunk an unknown Amer
ican merchant ship off the Chinese
coast. Heavy gun fire is plainly heard
to the northward.

Conquest Great
American Desert
The officials of the reclamation de
partment of the United States geolog
ical survey have taken the field for
the most active campaign thus far
undertaken for the benefit of the peo
ple's heritage the public lands of
America, estimated to measure 841,
872.377 acres, of which 172,873,079
acres Lave Deen reserved oj law ror
forest culture, Indians and other pur
poses, leaving 7y4.7y4.3fH acres open
to reclamation and ultimate settle
ment. Colorado contains 85,831.otf
acres of this heritage, of which 4,098,-
543 have not yet been surveyed.
In connection with Irrigation enter
prises, and to enlighten the large
number of settlers who know practlc-
allv nothlnsr about the application or
water to the soil and to growing crops,
the San Francisco Call discusses the
quantity of water allotted to a given
area of Irrigable land." lamng me
States as a whole, the quantity per
acre used in California is about SO per
cent of the Colorado average. This
would appear to convict Colorado of
needless waste, but as the nature of
the soil and the kind of crop irrigated,
together with rainfall, are factors In
the problem, it Is not safe to conclude
without careful comparison. This Is
now going forward at Fort Collins and
at other experiment stations under the
general, control of the Agricultural
Department Experts connected with
pump ana macninery nouses in tnis
city are also collecting data, this be
ing the natural result of the Installa
tion of plants In different portions of
the State, on different soils and for the
care of different crops.
It has been stated by one of the en
gineers in charge of Federal work in
Nevada that a miner's Inch of water
would irrigate 500 acres of land. This
Is not the Colorado experience. Even
California rejects It, the San Francisco
Call alleging that the estimate Is un
sound and Is not supported by Califor
nia experience, dating back to the time
of the missions, when the Franciscans
brought with them the experience of
Egypt and the Orient.
In support of his liberal Nevada es
timate MOO acres to one miner's inch
Expert Llpplncott quotes conditions
at Yuma and In the Klamath district
of California. His allowance for
Yuma, if we understand him correct
ly, Is GSO cubic feet of water per acre,
which is not quite three-sjxteenths of
an Inch per acre. That is a very thin
sheet of water to spread upon land In
region where the evaporation Is
twelve or fifteen feet per year. "We
doubt very much," says the Call,
whether it will sustain growing crops.
If be means that a miner's Inch flow
ing constantly for ninety days will suf
fice for an acre and a half, we have
this result: In an acre and a half are
65,340 square feet, which a miner's
Inch in ninety days would cover about
fifteen inches. He allows eighteen
Inches at Klamath for the crop sea
son, against fifteen Inches at Yuma.
Rut the record of thlrty-slx years'
rainfall at Yuma shows an average an
nual preclptatlon of three and four-

tenths inches only, while at Klamath
It is thirty-six to fifty inches."
Experiments the world over show
that land requires about three feet of
water during the growing season to
produce a crop. This is averaging all
absorptive conditions of the soli and all
rates of evaporation. Italy, In the
valley of the Po, has long established
a scientific Irrigation, and the aver-'
age duty of water Is one cubic foot
per second to about sixty-six acres, la
continuous flow. But Italy on th
same land has a rainfall of between
thirty-five and forty inches, of which
twenty-two inches falls In the season
of growing crops. So the irrigated
land of Italy gets about 130 inches of
irrigation water and twenty-two inch
es of rain, or a little over twelve feet
in the season of crop growth.
This feature of the Irrigation prob
lem deserves close attention, because
it is basic in the matter of dividing np
lands. The settlers should know ia
advance what the chances for success
really are, and. In estimating those
chances, the government experts
should lean to the conservative rather
than the hopeful side. A season of re
action would materially injure the re
clamation project. Denver News.
Lmembarxert Are Content.
All tourists who have spent any
length of time in the Grand Duchy of
Luxemburg agree that the Luxem
burgers are the most contented people
on the face of the earth, writes Henri
Chevalier in the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Though of very small area the popula
tion represents many nationalities. It
appears to form part of Belgium and
one has to penetrate toward the capi
tal from the border quite a bit before
the Belgian dialects cease to be beard.
Then there is quite a Dutch element.
Half of the people speak French and
there are many Germans, as Is showa
by the two German papers printed la
the little capital of 22.000 Inhabitants.
That the people are happy is be
cause the Grand Duchy is independ
ent, at peace with all its neighbors, has
but a small army to support and Im
poses little tax on the Inhabitants,
most of whom are neither rich nor
poor.
Of Grand Duke Wllhelm, the regent,
it cannot be said that "uneasy lies the
head that wears the crown," for no
ruler is better beloved by his subjects.
He was married in 1803 to the Infanta
Maria Anna of Portugal, who is the
mother of Princesses Marie, Charlotte,
Hilda, Antonla, Elizabeth and Sophie.
The family is fairly worshiped by
the Luxemburgers. The old Grand
Duke Adolf of Luxemburg, the real
ruler, is still alive. He is a nonagena
rian and, though he abdicated In favor
of Wllhelm in 1902, he still takes a
deep Interest in all the state and court
affairs.
