see what a sham Summers really Is and
what a sorry spectacle he makes when
pitted against a lawyer like General

probably not another one so helpless aa

"The predictions made weeks ago that
Summers would not be ready for trial,
but would rely on dilatory taotlca have
already been more than fulfilled. Twice
he has secured the postponement of the
Dietrich case on grounds which, notwith
standing his explanation In his news

he had been preparing In good faith since
peoember 28, when the case was aet for

to keep himself In office and to compel
Senator Dietrich to consent to his re

NEW YORK, Jan. 6. When the govern
ment thermometer reached 4 below sero
at I o'clock thia morning all local January
cold records since 1875, when below was
registered, were beaten. Thermometers In
various outlying parts of the city went
several degrees lower and in the suburbs
from t to II below eroawas reported. At
ft o'clock the official thermometer had gone
up to 1 below and the absence of wind was
some relief.
The Intense cold Interfered considerably
with all outdoor occupations and delayed
all regular and suburban trains from a few
minutes to several hours. The effects of
the heavy snow had been overoome, but It
was difficult to keep steam and many local
trains had to be abandoned on account of
disabled engines.
Traffio on land and water was In serious
trouble. Transatlantic liners arrived look
ing like specter ships. Both the East and
North rivers were barely navigable, while
the Harlem river, for the first time in
eight years, was impassable above Mao
Combs dam bridge at One Hundred and
Fifty-fifth street. Ferry boats and tugs
were swept out of their courses by the
drift loe and every ounce of power In them
was required to reach their slips. The
boats which land at the Battery had to
turn battering rama to part the Ice in their
slips.
Malls from the west and east were
from six to ten hours late. ' Snow was not
to blame for this so much aa the inability
of the locomotives- to keep steam up under
the great outside cold pressure.
The severe weather, too, waa the cause
of an unusual number of fires. Between
2,30 and 8 30 a. ra. thirteen alarma were
sent in. All were for small fires.

May Close Theaters Permanently
The special committee, composed of mem
ber of the city council, appointed last
night to Investigate the condition of the
local theaters and to report upon what al
terations are necessary to make them con
form to the building ordinances, held Its
first meeting today.
According to the statement of Alderman
Frlesdt, one of the members of the commit
tee, it is doubtful If 15 per cent of the
theaters ever reopen th'olr doors. Strict
adherence to the building law will require
that every one of them be of fireproof con
struction, and thla would require the re
building of the majority of the theaters.
New York More Cautions,

made by Assistant Foreman Lenihan, who

prevent fires or panics. At a meeting with
Fire Chief Swlngley and representatives
of Insurance companies, the theater man
agers receded from their former belligerent
attitude. They have agreed to place red
lights, as well as the word "exit" over all
the exits of the theatera and also approved
of Building Commlasloner Helmburger's
idea ' to test the asbestos curtain in each

Corea, coupled with an agreement based
on the principle of equality of all nations
as regards commercial opportunities in
those countries; that neither contracting
party shall interfere with the commercial
rights the others acquired by treaty with
China or Corea.
Merely Asked to Make Good.
"In a word, it Is probably the fact that
Japan has asked no more of Russia than
confirmation by International compact of
declarations repeatedly and unequivocally
made by Russia herself regarding the un
selfish nature of her motives with refer
ence to Manchuria. Russia's reply has evi
dently been a surprise and a disappoint
ment to Japan. It Is now generally under
stood that Russia has virtually refused to
discuss the situation In Manchuria and has
proposed something in the nature of a neu
tral sone in northern Corea on the Man
churlan frontier, extending as far as Wong
tan on the east and Ping Yang on the west.
It Is difficult to perceive how Japan could
possibly accept this proposal. To consent
to the Indefinite prolongation of Russia's
stay upon the borders of Corea and to the
neutralisation of nearly one-third of the
latter' territory would be a fatal menace
to the Independence of Corea which Japan
must defend at all costs, as the safety of
the peninsula, which Is the outpost of her
lino of defense. Is Indispensable to Japan's
own repose and security.
As for Manehnrla.
"As for Mnnahurla, Japan, conjointly with
other powers, Is entitled to the Immunities
secured by treaty with China, which It
would be Impossible to leave to the caprice
of a third power. Russia's recent course
demonstrates the unsatisfactory nature of
present conditions. The reoccupatlon of
Mukden and the continued occupation of
Tatong Kao have undoubtedly had the ef
fect of intimidating China and of prevent
ing It from fulfilling Its treaty obligations
with the United States and Japan with
respect to the opening of those places to
the commerce of the world. Bo also as re
gards Corea It is now known that the joint
efforts of Groat Britain, the United States
nnd Japan to open the Yalu to foreign com
merce at large were on the eve of success
when the Russian, occupation of Yon-
gampho blocked the plan for the time being.
These and similar events In Corea and
Manchuria Justify the apprehension that if
affairs are permitted to proceed uninter
ruptedly In their present course a large
part of the shores of the Yellow sea, not
to mention the interior of Manchuria, will
be closed to the commerce of the civilized
world. It is of vital Importance V) Japan
that this should not happen and I. la plain
that the final Issue depends solely upon
Russia's willingness to recognise this fact."
Movement of Troops Secret.
TOKIO, Jan. 5, 1:05 p. m. The Russian

It is reported from Vladivostok that the

According to another report a Russian
cruiser has left Port Arthur with a small
military force on board. Its destination la
unknown, but is probably Chemulpo, Corea.

Panama. He Quoted a number nf authori
ties in support of his position that the
president had not departed from the beaten
Maths In recoffnlslncr thn InrlnrrwIannA nf
Panama and he laid down the general
proposition that "a revolted state may be
recognised as sovereign or Independent by
a neutral power without departing from
Its attitude of neutrality." He also con
tended that such an act could not hn con
strued as provoking war, and that It Is
established that a new state should be
recognised whenever a new state Is suf
flclently established to assume national ob
ligations and whenever recognition mn
forms to the dictates of prudence and srood
policy. He also laid down, as a general
rule observed by the United States, the
fact that a do facto government Is the
de Jure government. Ho contended that the
recognition of any state Is one to be de
termined entirely by the recognlxlng power
ny its inclination and Judgment, Inde
pendent of all other considerations. Many
Instances in which recognition had been
purely executive were cited and th ..
tor asserted that President Taylor had
prepared to recognise the Independence
of-Hungary before a government had been
established.
Replying to the objection that the presi
dent had gone beyond his authority In
nominating a minister to Panama Mr
Lodge quoted a number of Instances to
show that the early presidents mada nomi
nations to other countries for which con
gress had made no nrovlslon.
The senator then discussed at length the
action of President Roosevelt In connec
tion with the Panama revolt. He also r
ferred to the effort on the nart nt cn
lombla to secure promises from Germany
ana Great Britain to take up the canal
project. Mr. Lodge dwelt at some length
on this Incident, declaring that the Invita
tion to these powers to hulM a rm.i
the western hemisphere by a people whose
very existence depends on the maintenance
or me Monroe doctrine Is very extraordi
nary. Senator Morgan Talks.
Mr. Lodge read from a speech by Mr.
Morgan in the Fifty-seventh rnnnu
testing against the ratification of tho treaty
un venexueia.
Mr. Morgan construed Mr. Lodge's action
to be an Inference that he (Mr. Morgan)
had altered his views concerning the rio-ht.
of Panama to the proceeds of the sale of
me canai concession. Explaining that he
had not changed his views on the matter
he then asked Mr. Lodge:

In. ' n n a m n fm..! . .
i W hi"? nOWr iakc9 thl" WO.000,000 to be
paid by the United States and give it to
the Republic of Panama?
Mr. Lodge answered that he would not he
willing to so divert money which he be
lieved to belong 'rightfully to the Panama
-""' company. Mr. Lodge declared that
the Inst constitution of Colnmhlo i v,iv
Panama had given Its adhesion was that
oi jtM, wnicn had recognized the right of
secession.
Taking up the event Immediately pre
ceding recognition he asserted that Mr.
Beaupre had reported that the revolution
was supposed at Bogota to have broken
out on October 81. As early as May all
the world had known that known that a
revolution was ImDendlno-.
Those reports of proposed revolution had
come to the ears of the president and the
senator asserted that if the president had
not taken precautionary measures he would
..a ueen in tne Highest degree censur
able. The precautions had resulted In the
presence of only one United States vessel
at Colon and the utmost Impartiality had
been shown by the American omcers there.
If by this act the president had made war
there was an excellent precedent In Presi
dent Polk's attitude toward Mexico. But,
as a matter of fact, there had been no war
In Panama. On the contrary, peace had
been, preserved and the result had been
that the new republic had been established
without bloodshed except for the killing
of one man.
Find Precedent In Jefferson.
Continuing, Mr. Lodge said:
When Jefferson made the Louisiana pur
chase in 1808 he met deep opposition ohloflv
rrora men representing my own section of
the country. Jefferson when he made that
purchase was charged with transcending
his constitutional powers. I do not think
that he was; posterity does not think so,
but Jefferson thought so at the time, and
even went so far as to suggest the uassuge
of a constitutional amendment. Ana yet he
went boldly on and performed what I re
gard aa the greatest act of his life, and
reared to himself the most splendid and
enduring monument that any man could
rear to himself. When that canal Is com
pleted the voice of the American people
will acclaim the action of this administra
tion, which threw open the gateway be
tween the Atlantic and Pacific, even as
they arc'aim the action of Jefferson when
he bought the territory of Ixulslana.
Mr. Gorman Introduced a resolution ask-
