"Only six trains daily pass oast on

The Russian Plan. ]
Paris. By Cable.? The Russian plan ;
for ntricvlne the reverses :it Port At*
thiir and Chemulpo has been cnmmunl- , '
< ;it< (1 to irnc of the embassies through ! '
otlicial channels having access to the 1
higln st naval authorities at St. Peters- \
burp. The plan is explained as fol- j
lows:
Russia recognizes that the lapnnese i 1
now has preponderating naval strength ,
in the far East. Therefore it is essential
to reverse the present Japanese
preponderance. This will be attempted
by two distinct moves.
First, urgent efforts will lie made to i
have a naval concent ration at Port (
Arthur, the Baltic, lied Sea end Vladi- ! ,
vostock fleets joining Vice Admiral
Makaroff's command. If possible, and j
till" in vi n pr tllP i-nmhStlcil tUmtg nrni\i\t\ - t
tlerame over Vice Admiral Togo. | ,
S< und, it is foreseen that it will be
difh nit and probably impossible to I 1
effect this concentration, as Admiral j
Togo may intercept the Baltic fleet he- |
fore its arrival at Port Arthur. In that 1 1
event the Baltic fleet, which is com- j
paratively small, will attempt the peril- <
ous task of engaging the large Japanesi
fleet in the hope of disabling some ]
of the Japanese ships and thus re- <
diying the Japanese effectiveness. Ac<j~i
linp to the Russian calculation
t/ic Baltic fleet may suffer annihilation
in su< h an unequal combat, but it will
have served a valuable end if it is able
to cripple a sufficient number of Japanese
ships to reduce Admiral Togo's !
naval strength below that of Admiral 1
MaUnioff. The foregoing information
is no part of current speculative report,
but credited from official sources. The
authorities at Washington will receive '
similar information shortly. i

the Southern l'resbterian missionary

of the alleged barbarities practiced
on the natives of the Congo by
the authorities and of obstacles
thrown in the way of their correction
t>y the officials. He said:
"I lived with these people seven

worst savage type of natives are
caught and carried far from their
tiomes and forced into military service.
In turn this soldiery is used to
compel tho natives to bring in an enorcuoub
tribute of ivory and rubber. It
s worth noting that the King of BelIfium
is today reputed to be the largest
dealer in ivory and rubber in tho
world. As a result of forced military
lervico and labor, great and unspeakible
cruelties are practiced on the na:lves.

BURTON SENTENCED
He Declines to Say Anything in Defense
of Himself
DEGRADED FROM HIGH POSITION
Judge Adams Says the Verdict of the
Jury Demonstates That Public Office
Cannot Be Prostituted to SelfServing
Purooses.
St. Louis, Special. United States
Senator J. R. Burton, of Kansas, was
sentenced to six months imprisonment
in jail and a tine of $2,500 for using
his influence before the I'ostoffice Department
in behalf of the llialto Grain
and Securities Company, of St. I^ouis,
nnd for having received payment from
the company for liis services.
\Vhcn Senator Burton, accompanied
by his attorney, came into ttie United
Slates District Court. Judge Adams
spoke of the motions that had been
filed for a new trial and for arrest of
judgment. The court, after briefly reviewing
the motions, overruled them
both. The court then said to the de
fmdant:
"Have you anything to say as to
why sentence should not hi' passed
upon you?'
Evidently suppressing his emotions
with a strong effort. Senator Hurton
stood leaning with both hands en a
el-air hack as he said:
"Your honor will please allow ire to
respectfully decline to say anything."
The court room was almost empty
with the exception < r a few persons
who had remained on; of rriosity and
tin* silence was almost op;;r ssi\o as
Judge Adams, in a low tone, began delivering
the sentence. The court said:
"1 am satisfied that the jury reached
the just and true result. The evidence
abundantly warranted their verdict
and I found no reason, either in the
??4 ?? r^w>< i iiiiih in* i~ ?ic ** in hi i in* inti codings
attending the trial, for disturbing
it.
"Your exalted station in life, and the
character of your offense, give unusual
significance to your conviction. It demonstrates
that the law of the land is
equal to any emergency and that it
can he administered regardless of the
personality and station of the accused,
it also demonstrates to all the people
tnat public office cannot he prostituted
to self-serving purposes, and that pub
lie oITiee is not a sure or safe passport
to private thrift.
"The humiliation attending; your
conviction and the statutory disqualifications
resulting therefrom which forever
incapacitates you from holding
any office of honor, trust or profit
under the government of the United
States are in themselves heavy punishment
for your offenses, and leave hut
little i.? the way of severity which
could he added.
"Tt is neither my pleasure nor purpose
to impose any unnecessary punishment.
"1 think the majesty of the law will
be sufficiently vindicated and the public
welfare sufficiently safeguraded by
imposing a single sentence, warranted
as it is on any one of the six counts
of the indictments on which you were
convicted.
"This sentence will he that you he
confined in the Iron county jail for a
period of six months, and that you pay
a fine of $2,500."
At the conclusion of the sentence
Senator Burton, who had not taken his
eyes from the court and who had
scarcely moved, as he supported himself
by the chair back, turned and sat
down, with his head bowed and his
eyes on the floor. His attorney. Judge
Knim, immediately filed a bill of ex
( options in the case and offered a bond
for $10,000, which was accepted.
Senator Burton declined to discuss
the sentence. The case now will be
appealed to the United States District
Court of Appeals.
Wound In Heart Healed.
Philadelphia. Special.?Thomas Mmerson,

Senator /Morgan Speaks on Canal
Question
After listening to a. two hours'
speech by Mr. Morgan on the Panama
Canal question, the Senate again took
up the postofllce appropriation bill, but
adjourned without completing its consideration.
Some important amendments
aside from those suggest?*d by
the committee were agreed to, among
them one increasing from 11 to 4 ounces
the size of franked letters and another
adding L'5 members to the force of rural
n<-f lu'iivi'ry agents.
Mr. Morgan declared that the new
Panama Canal Company Is only a lessee
of the property rights on the
isthmus, and said that when we pay
to the government of Panama the $10.OOO.soo
this government will be entitled
to d? al with the canal company as a
tenant. He criticised in sharp language
whr.t he denounced as the surrender
of the Cnlted states to tho new Panama
Canal Company, saying that
"there is some undisclosed influences
at work which has given that, company
control of all our recent actions In
connection with the canal enterprise."
He predicted that If there should be delay
the new canal company, backed by
France, would be responsible for it and
ho hinted at the possibility of tho
company refusing outright to make a
satisfactory sale. Ho pointed to what
he called the delay in making payment
to Panama and said that it was In
strong contrast with the haste manifested
in securing ratification of the
Hny-Varllla treaty and argued that
this d day was duo to th? demands of
the canal company.
After c. i. lading his speech. Mr.
Morgan asked for a vote on his resolution.

Mr. Grosvenor devoted himself to a
defense of the Republican party. Mr.
in Arniond, lie said, had indicted tho
leaders on the floor of the House for
an attempt to cover up crime. "What
crime." Mr. Grosvenor asked, "has
been committed in any one of the
branches of the administration of the
Federal government, and by whom?"
lie sarcastically remarked that when
a member of the House knew enough
to hurl in the face of the maioritv of
the House the charge that thoy wore
covering up and protecting crimes "ho
ought to know enough to make some
statement that somebody, somewhere
had committed some crime."
"Why are you opposed to investigating
the Department?" inquired Mr.
PoArmond. "For the manifest reason."
said Mr. Grosvenor. "that the Department
has boon thoroughly investigated."
Then, branching off on the
tariff, he called upon Mr. DeArmond to
state what ought to he "hanged in the
tariff. "There would bo no ten of
same item; no live of you that will
come within "0 no I- on n t i .f ! .....I
none of you will agree upon nil of the
items of the tariff." Mr. Orosvenor
applauded the President's enforcement

Panama policy.
