SAYS DEALERSARE CARELESS
Fire Chief Comments on Occasional
tale of Gasoline Instead
of Kerosene.
Many complaints of carelessness on the
part of grocers and small dealers in hand
ling gasoline have reached the office of
the chief of the fire department. The main
source of trouble Is In the occasional sub
stitution of gasoline for kerosene intended
for lamps. When this is done an explo
sion usuaUy follows and a few incipient
Area have been caused this summer on
this account.
The other night the department was
called to the Martls building on North
Sixteenth street, but found that a fire had
been averted by the coolness and presence
of mind of one of the male tenant. A
lamp used in the home of William Rich
ards suddenly gave indication that it was
about to explode, and flared up without
warning. It was hastily carried Into the
bath room, thrown in the tub and the
water turned on, extinguishing the blase.
Investigation later showed that the tank
of the lamp had been filled with gasoline
which had been purchased at a nearby
grocery store for kerosene. .
Chief Baiter 1 especially anxious to have
great care used In the handling of oils, as
accidents resulting from a substitution
usually result not only in damage, but in
Injury to porsons and the loss of Ufa. He
remarked that the Richards affair was an

useful adjunct to the department.

Defense of Manchurian Policy. '
WAR DECLARED WELCOME PROPOSITION
Edward's Government Said to Be De
ceiving; America, Inciting Japan
and Still Recognising Mus
covite Position.
ST. PETERSBURG, July 26. Director
Hartwlg of the Asiatic department of the
Russian Foreign office talked long, enr-
nestly and frankly today regarding Man
churla. He began with the statement that
the Russo-Chlnese situation was likely to
remain unchanged until the return to Bt.
Petersburg of War Minister Kuropatkln.
Director Hartwlg declared that he could
not understand Prince Citing's statement to
United States Minister Conger, but he pre'
sumed that the port question would be ar
ranged. Russia, he said, excluded Harbin
from the port possibilities because of its
railway Importance, but he could see no
objection to two other porta being opened.
Attack England ns Defense.
Passing to the statement of American
opinion regarding Manchuria the director
made a remarkably outspoken attack on
England. He said:
I do not comprehend how Russia, whose
ro reign policy is the most straightforward,
can be accused of duplicity when Eng
land s double aeaung snouia be apparent
to everybody. Here are two telegrams
from Kris-land today. One relates to Lord
Cranborne's statement In the House of
Commons on July 23 that England desires
an Anglo-Kusslan arrangement covering
the entire situation and that England rec
ognlsed Russia's peculiar Hltuatlon and In
terests in Manchuria, tne otner repeats
the London Standard's dispatch from Tien
Tsln of July 24 regarding Russian rein
forcements at Port Artnur.
This Is for American consultation. It
la false, but I shall permit its publication
here to prove that we do not fear war,
even with ftve powers.
England never addressed complaints re
garding Manchuria. It recognizes our spe
cial Interests, but continually incites Japan
and America against us. The English dis
patches from the far east are for Ameri
can consumption. Why does not America
see through the trick; why swallow the
bait so awkwardly disguised? Does Amer
ica desire war?
Rnssla Aid to America.
If so. why does no one stoo to consider
how much the Amerlcan-Mancburlan trade
amounted to before ItSiS? Who ever heard
New Chwang mentioned before we brought
order there? Who Is building Dalny as a
free port? Russia has lO.tMl miles of Chi
nese frontier. Khali we place ourselves on
the sams footing as others? When we
saved Admiral Seymour from destruction
why did not somebody protest against
KlaochowT What is the outcry for? Does
anybody suppose we are going to be com-
pe nea to reiimiuixn me railway to Hong
honeses or other mauraudera?
I repeat that we do not fear war, even
with five powers. Our defeat of the Crimea
is a glorious chspter in our history and I
do not believe that any Ave powers desire
to gather new laurels ilk those of the
Crimea.
What can Japan do? Suppose Japan de
feated the Ruaslan army, we could crush
Japan to sand.
It Is your duty to expose England's du
plicity. It is not a recent phenomenon
now; It Is a chronic affair. Some English
dispatches surpass opera bouffe. Her Is a
dispatch Just received saying Jspan is pre
paring for war and thai the entire Japanese
squadron la now at Vladivostok, where
foreign warships are not allowed at all.
Dr. Hartwlg generally and specifically. de
nied the reports regarding Russia mob
