M. Takahashl (Japanese special
financial commissioner at Loudon), In
an Interview said:
"The war cost between $250,000,000
nnd $300,000,000 the first year and It Is
Utimated that It will cost $350,000,000
during the present year. It would be
unprecedented In tho history of great
wars that no Indemnity and no terri
tory be given up by tho vanquished.
While It is beyond my province to dis
cuss terms of peace, I can express my
personal opinion. As the war was
forced upon Japan It is not likely that
slio will waive tho riant to an Indem
nity and ccKsion of territory when con
cluding pence. What indemnity will
bo demanded I cannot say, but It is
my private opinion that It will at
least cover tho expense of the war.
"if RtiHriJa assumes that a continu
ance of tho war will deplete our
finances before hers it will bo another
mistake of judgment on her part. We
can maintain a suliicient army in
Manchuria to keep out tho Russians
Indefinitely, but this will necessitate
Japan remaining in Manchuria and ad
ministering tho province on a war
footing, which we do not desire.
"Manchuria is fertile and productive
and an army can be maintained there
more economically than In the case
of the opposing force in Sibeila. If
Russia Is prepared for the test of a
war of finances we are willing. The
longer the war lasts the more certain
it will be that it will not be resumed."
Bold Japanese Move..
Giinshu Pass, 1(;S miles north of
Tie Pass. April 3. The situation here
Is unchanged. General Mlstchenko
has moved forward into close touch
with the Japanese and keeps up con
stant skiiiiiiidilng. Elsewhere every
thing Is quiet.
Native reports, which may be taken
for what they are worlh, state that
he Japanese are leaving before the
Russian front only a screen capable
with the help of the Mukden and Tie
pass fortifications and garrisons of
holding In check General LInevltch,
and are transferring tho bulk of their
five armies to Vladivostok and by
means of a wide movement through
Mongolia to Tsltslhar.
Considering the groat distances In
volved, the plan appears too hold and
almost Impracticable; but Japanese
Intoxication from continued success,
bold Initiative and determined perse
verance must he regarded. The situa
tion affords an opportunity for Rus
sian cavalry, which thus far has played
an Insignificant role, to distinguish It
self by penetrating the Japanese In
tentions. Opposing Armies Again Approach.
Another duel between the two op
posing armies in Manchuria may be on
the program this week. The Russians
according to a Harbin correspondent,
are now strongly fortifying their po
sitions nt Siplnghai, against which the
Japanese are reported to be gathering
in force.
Equally Important news Is that a
column of Japaneje is moving against
Kirin, perhaps with the Intention of
turning the position eastward- and
striking at the Vladivostok line of
communication with the double pur-'
poto of Isolating the fortress nnd sep
arating General LInevitch's army from
a valuable base of supplies, the Vb
Burl district.
Russia Outlines Conditions.
Russia has outlined the conditions
under which she "Is prepared to nego

It was stated with every semblance
of authority, that, thanks tq .the good
ofllces of the United :-States and
France, the question of peace had as-'
sumed practical shape. ' :-'
Serious Conflict In Warsaw. .'
A serious conflict occurred Sunday
nlfUit in D.ika street, Warsaw, where
a Jewish Socialist society known as

perse the gathering fired into the
crowd, killing four persons and wound
ing 40 others.
Morgan Smith and Wife Caught.
Accuse .1 of conspiracy to commit
murder, J. Morgan Smith and wife of
New York were arrested in Cincin

trlct Attorney Jerome of New York
city. Nan Patterson, tho actress, who

May 4, 1!)04, is charged in the same
connexion, new Indictments to this
effect having been found In New York

tective met Smith in Montreal, Can
ada, nnd from that time until the ar
rests In Cincinnati this offloar has
awaited a favorable time for making
the arrest.
He followed tho couple, part of the
time as traveling companion, over
half of tho continent, having made
friends with Smith, who know him to
be a detective but believed that the
officer was after some other person.

NEW CANAL COMMISSION
Benjamin M. Harrod Only Old
Member Reappointed.
Secretary Taft Made Public the Per
sonnel of New Commission and Dis
tributlon of Duties Among Them
President's Idea of Only Three Mem
bers Partially Carried Out.
Washington, Aurll 4. The president
has carried out his plans for the re
organization of the Isthmian canal
commission as to personnel and busl
ness methods, generally on the lines
of the legislation he suggested to con
gross at the last session, which falleo
In the crush of business In tho closing
hours.
Yesterday, within half an hour aftei
the president's departure from Wash
ington, Secretary Taft, directly la
charge of canal matters, made public
the .personnel of the new commission
and the division of duties among them
Only one member of the old commls
kIoii, Benjamin M. Harrod, was reaj)
pointed.
Finding he was obliged legally to an
point seven commissioners the presi
dent did so, but he carried out hi
plan by making three of ''them pne
tlcally tho commission. . The othei
four, though bearing the title of com
misslouers not only receive a lowei
compensation but are assigned much
smaller fields of activity.
Each Has a Special Field.
The president also has carried oul
his scheme of dividing up the work
of canal building among the commls
siouers, so that nominally acting as a
body on stated occasions-, each indl
vldual member would operate in a
special field,
The head of the commission Is 3
trained railway .man chosen for his ad
mlnlstrative ability . in the financial
and purchasing field; the new gover
nor of the zone Is a lawyer who alsc
has had to do with state affairs; the
engineer commissioner already Is
known for his abilities In the execu
tion of the practical work of canal
cutting.
Tho other members of the commls
sion are placed to comply with the
law as to the number of the commis
sion, but are men of high ability at
hydraulic engineers. Secretary Taft
told them that they were expected to
show results and that Is said tq be
the key note for ttse president's ac
tion. ,
The personnel of the commission Is
as follows:
Theodore P. Shonts, chairman;
Charles E. Magoon, governor of canal
zone; John F. Wallace, chief engineer;
Rear Admiral M. T. Endlcott, U. S
N.; Brigadier General Peter C. Hains.
U. S. A., retired; Colonel Oswald M
Ernst, corps of enginers, U. S. A., and
Benjamin M. Harrod.
The commissions of Messrs. Shonts,
Magoon, Endlcott, Hains and Harrod
were delivered to them yesterday and
they took the oath of office as Isth
mlan canal commissioners. They Im
mediately called upon Secretary ol
War Taft and It Is expected they will
enter upon their duties at once.
Reorganization Plans.
After their Induction Into office
and their consultation with Secretary
Taft the commissioners talked ovei
the reorganization plans. .Under the
president's order the actual headquar
ters of the commission will b In Pan
ama and probnbly there will he a con
siderable transfer of employes from
Washington to that place
Chairman Shonts, with Governor
Magoon and Engineer Wallace, will
spend most of his time In the zone
but as the administrative offices are
directly in Mr. Shonts' charge he will
be in Washington more or less. Tiic
purchasing agent of the convnlssion
probably will establish himself In New
York.
Rear Admiral Endlcott and Colonel
Ernst at present are charged with Im
portant duties In connection with the
navy and nrmy. - The admiral Is chlcl
of the naval bureau of yards and docks
anTl Colonel Ernst Is not only In charge
of Important river and harbor work lc
the neighborhood of Chicago but is
president of the Mississippi river com
mission and a member of the Interna
tional deep water way commlsilon
which Is to meet during the suipmei
nt Toronto. Their continuous pres
ence on the Isthmus is not necessary
and it probably will bo qulty sufficient
if they are there only long enough to
attend the regular qunrterly meetings
at Panama.
Colonel Ernst will be relieved of the
river and harbor work in the Chicago
division by Lieutenant Colonel W. H
Blxby nnd come here at once. Colonel
Ernst will continue to act as presi
dent of the Mississippi river coiiin i.-'-slon
and member of the International
deep water way commission
Governor Magoon will reside perm
anently on the Isthmus and has re
signed his present position a:i law
officer of the bureau of lnsulai affairs
and of the commission.

REVENUE BILLS PASSED.
Senate Adopted Stock Transfer Tax
and Mortgage Tax Bills.
Albany, April 4. The senate last
night passed by party vote, ayes 33,
noes 14, the two administration reve
nue measures adopted by the Repub
lican psrty caucuses in both houses
One Is the so-called stock transfer tax
bill, prescribing a stamp tax of 2
cents per $100 or $2 per 100 shares on
tho sale or transfer of stock securi
ties; the other provides an annual
five-mill state tax In lieu of all othei
taxes on all mortgages recorded aftei
July 1 next, one-half of the proceeds tc
en to the state, one-half to the local
ity.
There was a two-hours debate on the
stock transfer bill, which was opposed
solidly by the Democrats, led by Sen
ators Grady and McCarren. The six
senators from Greater New York
Cooper, Drescher, Elsberg, Gardner
Page and Saxe and Senator Hlnman
of Blnghamton, all signified their op
position to the bill, but voted for It.
though under emphatic protest, bo
cause bound by caucus action.
The mortgage tax bill was passed
with little debate.
Senators Cassidy nnd Tully strove tc
amend it so as to exempt mortgages
held by building and loan associations
but they were the only Republicans
who voted with the Democrats for to
amendment.
The passage of the bills was In the
nature of a surprise, although Senatoi
Raines said last week that he would
bring them up "Monday or Tuesday";
It had been generally believed the bills
would pass the senate today.
Senator Grady declared that tht
whole indirect taxation scheme was
evolved to blind the farmers to the ex
travagance of the state administration
and with Senator McCarren bitterly
arraigned the whole system.
Senator White declared that the
Democrats always lined up solidly
against the down-trodden and for the
money corporation Interests of the
state. He recalled that the second day
after the senate Republicans caucused
In favor of the measure the record
price was paid for a New York stock
exchange seat.
"In deference to the sentiment that
has arisen in my community," said
Senator Elsberg of New York city, "1
cannot Join 'my Republican colleagues
In voting for this bill without record
ing my regret. This might well be
culled a bill to drive the Republican
party out of New York city aud I want
to tell my friends that they are mak
ing It Impossible to elect a Republican
mayor."
He declared that all six Republican
senators Trom New York city voted foi
the bill under protest.
Senator Hlnman of Blnghamton was
the second Republican to voice a pro
test. He said, however, that he was
willing to see New Y'ork city taxed ta
help the rural communities pay for
the $101,000,000 canal foisted upon
them.
Senators Page and Saxe of New
Y'ork city expressed views like those
of Senator Elsberg declaring that they
voted for the bill only because bound
by caucus action.
Senator Saxe declared that in so
voting they wcro committing political
suicide.
Senator Marks offered nn amend
ment taxingnll telephones $3 nnd gas
and electric light meters 50 cents a
yenr, explaining that Its main purpose
wns to distribute the Indirect tax
more evenly over the whole state.
Senator Marks' amendment was lost
and the bill passed by a vote of 33
to 14.
The mortgage tax bill was then tak
en up. Senator Cassidy presented an
amendment exempting mortgages held
by .building and loan associations,
which was supported by the Democrats
and by Senators Tully and Cassidy,
both Republicans. The amendment
was defeated and the bill passed by a
party vote 33 to 14.

them. Lewis died almost instantly
while Huff lived only a few hours.
