S. Patterson. A Personal Power. President Roosevelts sturdy man hood and intelligent judgment have, in connection with his great office, made him the greatest personal power in the civilized world. No other man on earth could have brought the Japs and Russians together with any hope for peace, and he will, probably, be called upon to settle or arbitrate the differ ence* that will develop during the sit tings of the plenipotentiaries at Ports mouth. Last week he visited the towns of Wilks Barre in this state, and Chautau qua in New York, and his route, ex cepting when he was sleeping, was the scene of one continual ovation. At Wilks-Barre, Thursday, the gist of his speech to the coal miners was that he would be with them, if they iwere right and against them if they were wrong, and they cheered him and so did President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers; for it was he who brought about the end of the great stride of last year. At Chautauqua, Friday, he took a sensible and reasonable view of what we call our Monroe Doctrine regarding the alleged Republics of South Ameri ca and the West Indian Islands; and in his remarks upon the trusts made it evident that he favored additional legis lation for the better regulation of the great corporations, and the increase of the control of the National Government over them. He said that while some wealthy men in control of large corpor ations showed a commendable desire to obey the anti trust laws, yet others were resorting to every means in their power to defeat the attempts to enforce those laws. He especially cited the cases of the magnates of the beef trust, and stated that while he was loth to re sort to criminal prosecutions, yet such action was required in their cases. He warned the men who were opposing the execution of existing laws and the en actment of further moderate legislation that they were courting trouble. The result may be the placing on the statute books of legislation more drastric than he could think wiße. From the whole tone of his remarks it was apparently evident not only that the President pro poses to insist upon the enforcement of the existing laws, but also their proper amendment so as to make Government oontrol more effective. It is Roosevelt's untiring and aggres sive desire to do the greatest good for the greatest number that made him the idol of the crowd at Wilkes Barre. and which caused his enthusiastic reception at Chautauqua. Pe seeks hard tasks and masters them, and is endeavoring to use the powers of his office to serve the whole Nation—and in this connec tion it is well for us to remember that all his efforts can be made futile by un friendly or selfish legislation. If there ever was a time in the histo ry of this Nation when we should be oareful as to the manner of men we elect to Congress (and also to the As sembly as it elects the United State s . Senators) now is that time. When we vote for selfish, corporation millionares for Congress the chances •re that we are voting against our own interests; and the sending of weak or unprincipled men to Harrisburg is but playing into the hands of the money A Thousand Millions. A thousand millions, the principal member of the Japanese suite at Ports month is reported to have said, is not so much money when you come to look at it in certain lights. It would be in teresting to know in just what lights I this stupendious sum would look small In this country we talk glibly of large sums and own at least one corporation with a capital of over that figure, but in spite of that it takes a man with an un common vivid imagination to under stand what a billion of dollars really means. Compared with the national debt of France, wbich is almost six billions and of Bnssia, which mast now be almost five billions, it may not appear to be ao very great, bnt these vast debts have been a long time growing and it may be donbted that any one, even the taxpay ers of Russia and France, realize what they mean. A billion dollars would al most pay for the entire importations of the people of the United States during one year. It is more than the entire capital stock of all our national banks as given by the report of the Comptroller of the Currency for the year 1904. It is almost one-balf of the entire resources of the 0,028 State banks and would rep resent about an equal proportion of the total money in circulation in this conn try to-day. It is one-third of the total deposits in the sayings banks of the United States. Taken in almost any ordinary light, ttten, a thousand millions is a right snng torn. In view of the fact that the best estimates place the cost of the war to Japan at 1660,000,000 the receipt of an Indemnity of snch proportions would en able them to say that from a purely financial standpoint war is profitable business. In the circumstances the Jap anese envoys will do well to scale down this demand if the question of peace should hinge upon the payment of eo "* vast a sum of money.—Star Ind. THE Lake Erie railroad. (Vanderbilt) has purchased the Little Kanawa, W. Va., railroad, for $7,000,000, enabling it to reach the sea at Norfolk, Va. AT Atlantic City, the other day, a lot of Philippine indians went in bathing, clothed in "a grin and a breech clout," and were ordered out of the water. TWELVE people were killed and 25 injured in a wreck on the Nickel Plate railroad near Vermillion, Ohio, Sunday, caused by an east bound passenger train dashing into a westbound freight. The wreck is claimed to have been caused by the freight orew either neglecting or disobeying orders. Most of those killed were Italian laborers riding in the smoking cat. The Pence Conference. At the first formal meeting of the Jap. ami Russian Peace Plenipotent&ries at Portsmouth navy-yard, last Wednes day, they examined each others creden tials, and as everything seemed to be satisfactory, the presumption is that the delegates are clothed with power to conclude a peace. French was a (freed upon as the language of the convention On Thursday the Japs submitted their terms which include the cession of the island of Sakhalin, reimbursement for the expenses of war, cession of leases for China to Russia on the Liaotung peninsula, including Port Arthur and Dalny; the evacuation of Manchuria and the "open-door" policy there; the cession of the Chinese Eastern railway from Harbin to Port Arthur and Dalny; recognition of a Japanese protectorate over Korea, the grant of fishing rights from Vladivostok to Bering sea, the re linquishment to Japan of Russian war ships now interned in neutral ports and a limitation on the naval strength of Russia in far eastern waters. On Friday M. Witte of the Russian legation answered these terms in writ ing stating the cession of Sakhalin and the payment of a war indemnity to be impossibilities, but agreeing to the dis cussion of the items, one by one. Saturday's session was a long one, lasting from 9.30 a. m. to 7 p. m., and at its close the principals were too tired to talk, and the subordinates dare not, as both sides have agreed to secrecy. At Monday's session, it was said, that three of the twelve articles submitted by the Japs had been amended or re worded and agreed upon. At Tuesday's session two more of the twelve articles submitted by the Japs were agreed to by the Russians. These were article 4, referring to the "open door" in trade with Manchuria, and the mutual obligation to respect the terri torial and administrative integrity of China; and Article 6, regarding the sur render of the Russian leases of the Liaotung peninsula to the Japs; Article 5, reparding the cession by Russia to Japan of the island of Sakhalin, de veloped such a difference of opinion that it was passed over. It and the indemnity article ate to be left till the last. It is beginning to look as though the convention would be a success, and bring about a peace, though both sides now present an immovable atti tude on the indemnity and cession articles. PO-LITICAIi. Up to date about sixty-thousand il legal names have been found on the registry lists of Philadelphia. At Harrisburg yesterday, Judge John Stewart, the Republican nominee for Supreme Court, was unanimously en dorsed by the Democratic State Con vention. No single incident has had a more strengthening influence on the reform movement in Philadelphia than the Godspeed, which President Roosevelt handed out to Mayor Weaver in the little railroad station at Pittston Junc tion, last Thursday. The machine lives on political patronage and incidental graft. The patronage withdrawn the graft disappears. The words of en couragement and assurances of support which the President gave to the Mayor means a withdrawal of the patronage from the machine and the other result result will follow as certain as day fol lows night BARON KOMURA, the Japanese peace envoy, is a graduate of Harvard and weighs 100 pounds. A Spaniard unsuccessfully tried to assassinate President Quinta of the Argentine Republic by shooting, at Buenos Ayres. Friday. Louis ROSENBECK, ground keeper of the County Club, Pittsburg's swell athletic organization, was shot and killed in his own home by Daniel Troy, his former assistant, whom he had dis charged. Troy broke Into the house, laid in wait for him and afterward escaped. A DECIDED sensation was sprung at the lannching of the battleship Kansas ! at Camden Saturday afternoon, when Miss Anna Hocb, daughter cf the gov ernor of Kansas, suddenly produced a silver meshed bottle of water from the famous John Brown springs, of Camden county, Kan., and broke this over the bow of the sea fighter, at the same time saying, "I christen thee Kansas." The big ship trembled in its chute for a minute and then dipped into the waters of the Delaware. A feature of the peace negotiations new going on at Porstmouth. eo pro nonnced aa to have attracted the atten tion of not a few of the newspaper cor respondents on the ground, is the af fability of the Russian envoys. M. Witte, particularly,{ though weighted down with a responsibility greater than has been borne by any statesman since Jules Favre went oat to meet the repre sentatives of victorious Germany, has found time to make numerous acquaint anceships and to please the crowds that throng the corridors and verandas of the Wentworth hotel with bis friendliness and gracious manners. ACCIDENTS. Lightning struck the honse of Jacob Snyder, near Renfrew, Friday evening, setting it on Are and severely shocking Misses Rose and Frances Snyder and Daisy Lagoon, all of Allegheny, who are spending the summer at the Snyder glace.

Cruikshank, was leading a colt it swirled and kicked him so severely that he died next day, though at the time he did not seem to be greatly hurt. John Woods was made unconscious and badly bruised and Bert Heydrick had an ankle sprained by a run-off and smash up on N. Main St., Monday night. Woods was taken to the Hospi tal and Heydrick to his home. The team dashed the buggy against a tel egraph and smashed it. Merchants* Picnic. The merchants' picnic at Alameda, yesterday, was a very successful affair. While the attendance was not as large expected, at least 3000 or 4000 people visited the park during the day. The baby show and sideshow were the most attractive features. In the athletic contests R. H. Mc- Cntchson won the most prizes, the high jnmp, hammer throw, smok ing race and three second prizes. E.
