Finding his ship gradually going down, Com mander Hirose was compelled to give up the search and enter a boat. As he was rowing away under the enemy’s hot fire, a shell struck him on the head. His head and part of his body were blown away. Only a piece of flesh in the boat was all that remained of the brave officer’s body. Command er Hirose Was always a model officer and he leaves a meritorious example, the memory of which will be everlast ing.” SMOLDERING COALS BLOWN BY RUSSIANS. St. Petersburg, March 30.—The Novoe Vremya to-day executed a face about, strongly supporting the idea of a Rus so-British understanding, in an edi torial entitled “The Blindness of Eng land,” in which the paper argues that the success of Japan would be more in jurious to Great Britain than to any other European nation and points to the United States as the common rival of both. It describes Japan as "Amer ica's sharpshooter” and says: “Remember what nation, in the per son of the commander of one of its men of war at Chemulpo, refused to Join in the collective protest of the other for eign commanders before the Japanese destroyed the Variag and the Korietz. Remember who alone among all did not take on board the crews of our perishing ships. To the honor of Eng land, the ally of Japan, it was not her representative, but the commander of an American ship. “The Americans wish to convert the Pacific into an American Mediterran ean. Would that be to the advantage of England? Does England not under stand in her blind policy and hatred to ward Russia that she is turning this ocean into an American Mediterran ean? Sooner or later the European countries will recognize that America is their mutual enemy. Why should not Russia and England, in view of their possessions outside of Europe, combine?” INCREASES~ESTIMATE OF JAPANESE LOSS. St. Petersburg, March 30. —A later official dispatch from Gen.

Tokio, March 30. —The Russian gov ernment, through the French minister here, has lodged a protest with the Jap anese government against the destruc tion of the quarantine station at San Shamtao during the fourth Japanese attack on Port Arthur. The protest is based on Article 25 of The Hague International Peace Con gress, a copy of which is submitted with it. Responding to the protest, Baron Komura, Minister of Foreign Affairs, informed the French minister that the Japanese government had received no report from Vice Admiral Togo con cerning the destruction of the quaran tine station, but whether the station has been destroyed or not, the article of The Hague convention related only to land battles, the convention having lef the question of naval bombard ments unsettled. Japanese military and naval officers who are familiar with San Shamtao declared that the quarantine station there did not exist before the war. JAPANESE MERCHANTMAN SUNK BY THE RUSSIANS. Che Foo, March 30.—The captain, an oiler and one passenger of the Japa nese coasting steamer Hanyei arrived at Tang Chow this morning, and re ported that the Hanyei had been fired on and sunk by the Russian fleet near the Miaotao Islands on the morning of March 27. They also reported that the remainder of the crew and passengers, Chinese and Japanese, seventeen in number, had been taken prisoners by the Russians. The captain of the Hanyei says he mistook the Russian warships for the Japanese fleet until he had approached to within one mile of them. Then the Russians boarded the Hanyei in small boats and removed the passengers. The captain, the oiler and one passenger were in bed in the hold when the Rus sians came aboard and were not taken off. The Russians then sank the steam er, and the three men clung to float ing wreckage, until they were rescued by Chinese fishermen. The Hanyei was a small vessel.

They Had Refused Admission to the Mine to the United State, liar, shut and Federal Inspector.. Butte, Mont.. March 30. —F. Augus tus Heinze, the Montana copper mag nate, A. L. Frank, superintendent of the Johnstown Mining Company, and J. H. Trerise, superintendent of the Ararus mine; Heinze properties, were found guilty of contempt of court by Judge Beatty in the United States court to-day in the action brought by the Butte and Boston Mining Com pany against the defendants for en tering the Michael Davitt Lode claim and extracting therefrom valuable ore on what is known as the Sonargite vein. Mr. Heinze was fined $20,000, while Frank and Trerise were fined SI,OOO each, the fines to be paid by 11 o’clock to-morrow morning or the defendants to be taken to Helena in custody of tile United States marshal and confin ed until the fines are paid. Carlos Warfield, another defendant, was found not guilty and was dis charged. The judgment applies only to the first count against the defendants. Judge Beatty’s reservation of the de cision on two of the three counts on which Heinze was charged with con tempt in disobeying a former order of the court that an inspection of the Heinze mines be allowed in order to permit of the survey of certain ore veins, has the effect of keeping an im prisonment sentence hanging over Heinze. Judge Beatty announced, however, that no imprisonment order will be issued if the fine is paid, and there is no further violation of the court’s order. The fines are an outcome of' the ar rest of the defendants for refusing the United States marshal and federal in spectors admission to the mine. NEGROES WANT TO RUN NEGRO FOR PRESIDENT.

Farther Argument Made in the Ben nett Will Cline. New Haven, Conn., March 30. —Fur- ther sensational Incidents marked the second day's hearing on the appeal of William J. Bryan from" the Probate Court in the Superior Court to-day be fore Judge Gager. Former Judge Stoddard, counsel for Mrs. Bennett, and Mr. Bryan, engaged in a wordy war during the morning session, and the court had to inter vene. It followed immediately after reference to the correspondence be tween Mr. Bryan and Mr. Bennett had been made by Judge Stoddard, in which it was alleged that Mr. Bennett was brought to the point of writing the "sealed letter” by Mr. Bryan. Judge Stoddard implied that Mr. Bryan was withholding the contents, and said: ‘‘lf this man insists upon getting $50,000 from the widow by sup pressing facts and showing that these letters were written at his behest, the court should know the facts." Mr. Bryan jumped to his feet and Insisted that Judge Stoddard had mis stated the facts, but the court ordered him to sit down. The letters referred to are said to contain an announcement of the inten tion of Mr. Bennett to withdraw the letter he had already written, in which he had expressed a wish that Mr. Bry an should have $50,000 from his estate. At the hearing in the Probate Court it was stated that although Mr. Ben nett at one time desired Mr. Bryan to have $50,000 in accordance with the terms of the "sealed letter,” he had Changed his intention, and, had he lived, he would sooner or later have withdrawn the letter which is now in eontroversy. The day was taken up entirely by arguments on the question of admit ting the “sealed letter,” Judge Stod dard concluding the argument that he began yesterday. He declared that the admission of the letter would be “con trary to all law in Connecticut framed to prohibit fraud, undue Influence and imposition.” He was followed by Attorney Hewitt, after which Attorney Newton address ed the court for over two hours,showing the relation between Mr. Bryan and Mr. Bennett, the reasons for appeal and facts to show that the admission of the "sealed letter” as evidence is proper in law. Mr. Newton said: “We protest against the charge that Mr. Bryan is trying to get this 350,000 for himself, and as his attorneys, it is out duty to say that it has been his purpose to fulfill the trust made by Mr. Benrett to the letter.” Judge Gager will rule on the admis sion of the “sealed letter” to-morrow morning.

Senator Gorman Led the Debate, Which Was Upon the Postoltlce Appropriation Hill—Criticised the Polley of the Republicans in Re fusing to Permit an Investigation. Nays the Department Is Honey combed With Corrnptlou. Washington, March 30.—The Senate to-day began consideration of the post office appropriation bill and It was the signal for a revival of the Democratic demand for an investigation into the charges of corruption in the Postofflce Department. The debate was initiated by Mr. Gor man, who spoke for almost two hours in criticism of the course of the Repub lican party in the Senate in refusing an inquiry. Mr. Gorman referred to the hasty consideration and report of the bill and asserted that there had been persistent denial of the privilege of in vestigation of the affairs of the Post office Department. He urged that it was not yet too late to take steps to Pfevent "further robbery and thievery in the department." ‘lt is said,” he went on. “that Con gress must adjourn speedily; that from one source a request amounting to orders has gone out; that it is incon venient for one branch of government to have Congress on its hands; that if there is delay there are likely to be dis agreeable inferences from what has al ready been developed. "We have reached a time when there is much preaching of honesty and high mindedness, but corruption bubbles out. It came like a fog and has not yet lifted, and we cannot tell whether all the information is yet out.” Mr. Gorman referred to the charges made by the Poatofflce Department, saying he believed they had been made for the purpose of diverting attention from the guilty ones who had filched money from the treasury and abused their trusts. As for himself, he was of the opinion that members had not done more in the matter than their public duties required. Mr. Gorman called at tention to the habit of criticising men engaged in legislative work, and he concluded that this criticism grew out of a well directed effort to buld up a one-man, Czar-like government, nictated by President. So far, Indeed, had this plan pro gressed that legislation has come to be practically a farce, all Important measures being dictated by the execu tive. It was coming to be that only ah executive order was necessary to get an appropriation. The result is that Congress becomes a mere record ing body. “We are now told,” he continued, “that having approved the plans of the executive, we must adjourn and go home because of the fear of damaging disclosures. The fear Is so great that we are to be sent away and not to be allowed to do anything.” He then referred to some of the pend ing legislation, and included in the list 1 Mr. Foraker’s bill for the amendment of the anti-trust law regarding trans portation. He referred to Attorney General Knox’s statement regarding this bill, saying that It was not a de partmental measure. “Think of it!” said Mr. Gorman, “notice is given to Congress that nothing should be done in the way of legislation without con sulting the administration!" The American people do not want one-man control, Mr. Gorman con tended. He hoped that such action would be taken as would prevent one man control In the next four years, whosoever might fill the White House. Mr. Gorman closed with the declara tion of the conviction that the Postof fice Department was “honeycombed with corruption and Inefficiency.” Mr. Penrose, chairman of the Com mittee on Postofllees, said that while he had originally favored an Investi gation, he had now reached the con clusion that none was necessary. Denies Extraordinary llnate. Mr. Penrose challenged the accuracy of Mr. Gorman’s statement that ex traordinary haste had been exercised by the Committee on Postofflces In the preparation of th* bill. The subject matter of the measure had been receiv ing attention, he said, since last De cember.

Jury Declared That He Killed the Kntimnnlnn Woman. Paris, March 30.—Frederick Greul ing, the editor of an art paper, charged with the murder of Elise Papesco, a Roumanian singer, in his room at the Hotel Regina, Oct. 11 last, was declar ed guilty to-day. The jury found that there were ex tenuating circumstances in the case, and Greullng was sentenced to ten years at hard labor and to ten years police supervision. It was announced from Paris Oct. 11 last that Greullng reported to the clerk of the Hotel Regina that a young woman, Elise Papesco, a Rou manian singer, had killed herself in his room, and the police expressed the belief that she had been murdered. When the body was examined by a physician a bullet wound was found in the base of the skull and another lu the temple, the latter causing death. The physician declared that it was impossible for the woman to have inflicted the wound at the base of her skull, and Greullng was held on the charge of murder. According to Gina Papesco, sister of the dead woman, Greullng proposed marriage to Elise, claiming he was rich and Baying he was opposed to her going to Buchar est to fill an engagement at the Royal Theater. It is said that while at Aix-Les- Baines, Greullng became acquainted with Eugenie Fougre, who was mur dered in her villa there Hept. 18, un der mysterious circumstances. The murder of Elise Papesco re called another violent death in Paris, that of an American singer, Nrs. El len S. Gore, in November, 1902. She tvas found dead in the room of Jean De Rydzewsky, a singer of the Impe rial Theater at St. Petersburg. Al though the United States, French and Russian governments took a deep in terest in the elaborate investigation which followed, the mystery was nev er satisfactorily cleared up. MAJORITY OF EIGHTY AT BACK OF COMBES. The French Gox'erninent Party Is Still liuilißkrn. Paris, March 30.—1n the Chamber of Deputies to-day the campaign of the opposition against M. Pelletan, Minister of Marine, failed to shake the position of the government, which ob tained a majority of 80 on a test vote. Minister Pelletan replied In his own defense, denying the charges made ugalnst his ministry, and maintaining that the French navy, In both ships and personnel, was at present in a state of efficiency. Premier Combes wound up the de bate by declaring that the government accepted the resolution proposed by the members of the majority for the appointment of an extra-parliamentary commission to examine the condition of the navy. The resolution was carried by a vote of 318 to 238, thus Indicating that there will be no change In the cabinet as a result of the campaign against the Ministry of Marine. CURIOUS REMARKS MADE BY HERBERT SPENCER. Pbllnaoplier Wua Not Rnrnpt by Homer or Itnakin. London, March 31.—The Times this morning publishes advance extracts from the autobiography of Herbert Spencer, which give Interesting and curious remarks made by the philoso pher. For example, he says: "After reading six books of the Iliad I felt that I would rather give a large sum than read to the end,” and ’after a perusal of Ruskin’s "Stones of Venice” I have lost all faith in Rus kin’s judgment; doubtless he has a fine and eloquent style, but he has ut tered multitudinous absurdities.' ” Referring to Carlyle, Herbert Spen cer says that “He either could not or would not think coherently." The philosopher expresses admiration for George Flint, both physically and Intellectually, but says the report which was current that he was In love with and Intended to marry her was untrue. releasecTbyTourtT ARRESTED BY SOLDIERS.
