Ambassador . Benckendorff paid - another
visit to Lord Lansdowne at about I o'clock
thla afternoon; presumably to discuss
Rojeetvensky's report. This caused con
siderable bewilderment here, since, while

belne In the North sea la not only un
founded, but la absolutely ridiculous.
Insists He "aw Warships.
The version of Admiral Rojesvensky s re
port given out In Iondon says Rojesven
sky states that there never was any Inten
tion of firing on the British trawlers. If a
stray shot hit a boat It was entirely an
accident. The' trawlers were easily noticed
by the Russian fleet aa It passed Dogger
bank. Among the fishing bonts two steam
ers, moving at high speed and looking ex
actly like torpedo boats, were observed.
Bojestvensky concluded that these were
Japanese torpedo boats. The Russian ad
miral was of the opinion that his squadron
flted only on these two ships. The admiral
emphatically denies that a Russian warship
was left behind. He declares his officers
were In total Ignorance of the fact that any
of the Russian shots struck the trawlers,
and he expresses his extreme regret and
thut of every man In the fleet that any ol
the trawlers were damaged and that any
of the crews were killed or wounded.
The admiral asks what were the warships
noticed hovering near the scene of the af
fair and declares that all the Russian war
ships steamed off together.
Rojestvensky further declares that two
of the ships on which the Russians fired
were unmistakably of the warship type.
The Foreign office regnrds the statement
of . the captain . of the Swedish steamer
Aldebnran, now at Gefle, Sweden, from
Hull,' England, as being very Important In
Indicating that the Russians had pre
viously fired on a defenceless ship, when
there was no question of the presence of
torpedo boats.
Rojeslvenskr Says He Was Attacked.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct 27.-2:20 p. m.
Vide Admiral RoJ-jstvensky'a explanation
of the trawler Incident la fully as sensa
tional, as tho news of the firing upon the
fishing fleet, which set all England aflame.
He declares he was attacked In the dark

upon the squadron from the direction of

Insists Japanese Were Present.
In concluding his telegram Admiral Ro
jestvensky . expressed In the' most warm
hearted wny the regrets of the whole
squadron to the fishermen and to the
families of the victims. '
Rojestvensky's report was telegraphed
from Vigo direct to the emperor, who re
ceived It last night. It was communicated
this momlnrc to Ambassador Hardinge by
Foreign Minister Lamsdorff himself.
There Is reason to believe thot the Brit
ish embassy was also acquainted with In
formation was which reported to the Rus
sian authorities some time ago of tha ar
rival and subsequent mysterious disappear
ance from Hull of twenty Japanese, men
tion of which was made in these dispatches
October 26. It Is pointed out that the
original version of the Incident as recited
by the captain of the trawler Moulmeln
coincides closely with Rojestvensky's. The
captain ssld that while the sqadron was
pasting he suddenly noticed two torpedo
bouts which approached so near that he
thought they Intended boarding him when
they sheered off, heading back for the
squadron. Almost Immediately after tho
squadron opened fire.
According to one account of Rojest
vensky's report. It specifically states that
there were no torpedo boats with the
squadron when the Incident occurred. If
this Is true the statement of tha captain
of the Moulmeln would completely cor
roborate Rojestvensky. .
In view of the entirely new complexion
placed upon the Incident by Rojestvensky'
report, It Is readily conceivable that Rua
sla may make representations to Great
Britain and that the whole course of ex
changes between the two governments re
garding the affair may be altered.
Rojestvensky's version Is likely to create
quite as much indignation In Russia as the
fishermen's version did in England. Fur
ther Inquiry would seem to be Indispensl-

mediately ordered them to be fired upon

In England.
Prince Keretelll added that before the
Ruaslan cannonade began a single cannon
shot was distinctly heard comlpg from the
direction of the unknown boats. . .
As Admiral Rojestvensky was leaving the
palace of tha military governor of Vigo
yesterday, the dispatch" adda, an old man
stepped forward and kissed the admiral's
hand. The admiral responded by kissing
tha old man's forehead. The crowd which
witnessed the incident loudly applauded

Denmark lias a Theory.
COPENHAGEN, Oct. 7 The correspond

the Danish ministry of marine was In
formed that several ships chartered by
the Japanese were at Hull and Intonded to
attack the Rusplnn second Pacific squad
ron in the North sea. The Russians were
Informed of this The marine authorities
here credit the report.
The Danish ministry was officially In
formed flint thirteen Swedish vessels had
been chartered by tho Japunese to attack
the Russian squadron.
A Danish cruiser nnd a torpedo boat
watched the vessels so closely that their
approach to tho Russian squadron waa Im
possible., While thus engaged the Danish torpedo
boat llahesten had a nnrrow escape. The
commander of a Russian battleship mis
took the Dnnish torpedo boat for an enemy
and fired a blank shot. The quickness of
the torpedo boat In displaying Its flag
saved it. This happened at night tlmo.
When the captain of the torpedo boat
boarded the battleship he found largo
quantities of ammunition piled ready for
use. This was reported to the Danish
marine minister at the time.
Danish warships acted as police for the
Russian squadron until the squadron en
tered the North seo.

Stlckney's Speech.
t'nquestlonably the feature of the clos
ing sexMlon of the Nebraska Bankers' as.
1 1 soclation yesterday afternoon was the ad-
' dress of A. R. Stlckney, president of the
Chicago Gieat We?tern Railroad company,
on "Nebraska'a Opportunity.'" He spoke
with great fervor and feeling, and a he
rounded out full sentences pregnant with
promise as to the future of Omaha and
this great state, when he predicted ele
vators and flouring mills and when he
painted and talked of the realisation of
his dreams, the bankers roee In a body
and cheered Mr. Sttckney to the echo. They
did more. Immediately after the adoption
by a rising vote of a resolution of thanks
they voted to publish 10,000 copies of hli
speech In pamphlet form for circulation
throughout the stale.
Another burst of genuine enthusiasm was
developed whin the nominating committee
recommended the re-election of Prepldent
J. T. Trenery. The president rose to re
fuse tho nomination because of the labor
and his bc-llef In the rotation of the office,
but the convention would have none of It,
and while he talked the election was made
positively emphatic and unanimous. Mr.
Folda, the vice president-was re-elected.
Nebraska bankers, are divided Into nine
groups. A teport was received from eich
group and the unanimous verdict waa that
Nebraska was on the highway of prosper
ity, -that cattle, hogs and corn, with the
wheat and other grains, in plenteous quan
tities, assured the commercial, bank.ng and
material enhancement of every Interest In
the state. The song was unanimous, not a
discordant note In the hopeful tone.
Son of Ki-Governor Hoars;.
H. P. llllitard waa the first speaker of
the afternoon. The St Louis banker talked
on the "Trade Relations of the t'n.teJ
States with Other Nations." He stated
facts and figures showing the Importance
of our foreign trade and told a few south
em stories, which he verified by Will Hogg,
son of the former governor of Texas. Mr.
Hogg was called and spoke on the Inter
est rates In Texas and the fertility of
the state as a place for surplus invest
ment. G. W. Wattles spoke on "Quick Asrets,"
taking the ground that fatm mortgages
were probably the' best security for in
terior bankers, deprecating the purchase of
foreign commercial paper and advising
louns on cattle and farm products. He
pointed out the fact that the butter and
egg crops of Nebraska wore greater in the
aggregate thnn the production of all Colo
rado mines. In Omaha he found demand
for funds from packer and grain men a
fruitful source for loans.
P. L. Hall of Lincoln followed Mr. Wat
tles, taking the earns stand ugalnst com
mercial paper end upholding government
bonds as quick assets for small banks
with many times their capital in deposits.
In addition to the,, election of President
Trenery and Vice President Folda tho fol
lowing were elected to the executive com
mittee: C. F. Benlly, II. W. Jfate, Ed T.
Karney, R. S. Rising and Edwin Geary of

Stlckney on Nebraska.
President Stlckney devoted most of his
address to the . treatment of the grain
market subject. In the course of his ad
dress he said:
Such a milling Interest is undoubtedly a
valuable factor in establishing u highly de
veloped grutn market, but at the same time
It is my opinion, based upon careful con
sideration of tliw history of grain market.
(Out mills are not essential, and thut there
ure only three esuentiul factors to a grain
market :
First A territory uroduclna: a sufficient
quttnilty of. grain.
isouriiHKa is sucn a territory. In the
United States census cron year 1899. the
census of 19u0, it produced;

Oats , &8.0O7.OO0
Hye . ., 1,901,000

Total.. ....296.916,910
which Is 62,000 bushels more than the ag
gregate production of the state of Minne
sota, which has built up two magnificent
markets, one at Minneapolis and the othe:
at Dultith.
Second Grain merchants with capital,
push, capacity and elevators.'
Third A location in proximity to the
source of the supply, so located In respect
to Incoming transportation facilities that
a sufficient quantity can be aggregated to
justify a market, and so located In respect
to outgoing transportation facilities that
the grain can be distributed to all points
of the compass to the ultimate customers.
Omaha is sucn a locution. All the rail
roads which traverse the crain-Droduclnar
territory of Nebraska eonverga upon Omaha
ana an toe raurnaua wnicn will ultimately
distribute the grain to customers diverge
from Omuhu. It also possesses one of the
freatest live stock markets, not only of the
nlted States, but of the world. It pos
sesses capital and banking facilities. It
possesses every factor of a groat grain
market, excepting elevutors, ana a sufficient
number of grain merchants. ' It alrendv
possesses a few merchants, and Is pregnant
with embryo, which only requires fructify
ing with an abiding faith to become full
born, aggressive grain merchants and ele
vator men. 1 ' .
What a magiilflcent opportunity! In mv
dreams I see the valley leading to South
(1 inah a filled with elevators and mills, tow
ering tneir neaas nign aDove the surround
log hill tops
and I hear the dally turmoil
between th
bulls and the bears In the
irruln lilt.
It Is an Inspiring dream, and there is an
uncontrol'able something within me which
makes me . feel that It must and will be
realized. .
Gentlemen, It Is Nebraska's "hour"' of
fate." If sleeping, wake: If feasting, rise
and grasp the opportunity before It turns
away.
Some of the Resolutions.
The committee on resolutions presented a
strong plea for the adoption of a uniform,
law throughout the country with reference
to negotiable lantrunvnti, instructing the
secretary to send to every banker In the
state a copy of the negotiable Instrumen a
law, with a request that he urge upon hla
representative the passage of this law by
the legislature at Its coming session.
Strong resolutions commendatory of the
Lodge consular bill were adopted, and the
convention went on record aa In favor of
the passage of a bill to place tha consular
service on the highest possible plane, free
from party politics.
The association pluoed Itself on record
as favoring higher business education by
the adoption of this resolution:

rascals are. in the machinery or govern
ment there should he a constant search
for tho germs, so that they can be re
moved before they eat Into the public life.
Elect men not passively honest, but ac
tively honest, to your legislative assemblies
men who can be honest In action and
under fire. Brilliancy and wit nre good.
but plain, common everv-day honesty Is
better. It Is not enough to be against cor
ruption. You must fight corruption.

speech, wherein he declared It time to drive
the bribetakers out of the state; also time
to rescue the state government and restore
It bask to the people, whero It belongs.

time on the evils of "the pass system" and
scored the railroad lobbyists. He said he
would be elected by from 15,000 to 20,000 un

Becomes a Bealitj.
MAYOR M'CLEUAN TURNS ON CURRENT
Formal Exercises Meld In Afternoe
nt the City Hall Trains Are
Thronged Throaghont
Kvenlng.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. "City hall to Har
lem in fifteen mnutes," became a reality
today when the main artery of Manhat
tan's, great subway system was opened to
the public. The formal opening exercises
hold in city hall this afternoon were at
tended by invited guests. Mayor MeClellan
presided and addresses were made by
Chief Engineer William Barclay Plersons,
Rapid Transit Commissioner A. E. Orr and
John II. Statin, Contractor John B. Mc
Donuld and August Belmont, president of
the operating company Following the
exercises a speclol train left city hall for
the One Hundred and Fortieth street ter
minus, carrying Invited guests. The mayot
turned on the current and the trip was
made without event.
The actual opening of the subway to the
traveling public took place tonight. Long
before 7 o'clock when the flrBt train was
scheduled, to leave city hall, the park sur
rounding the hall was Jammed with a good
natured crowd. Thousands of persons
fought with one another for the privilege
of purchasing the first ticket. Flying
wedses, center rushes nnd almost every
means of progress known In foot ball tac
tics were adopted by those anxious to ride
on the first train. Squads of police were
stutloned at the entrance and were com
pelled to meet the onward rushes with
similar formations.
Cheers for First Train.
Promptly at 7 o'clock the first of the
crowd were admitted to the station and
when the first train dashed In sight around
the loop a hearty cheer went up. As soon
as the five cars ahd been filled, the train
was sent away. At Brooklyn bridge an
enormous crowd lind uathored, and the
Initial train was given a vociferous recep
tion. From station to stutlon the train was
heralded with noisy acclaim. As It pro
ceeded up town tho number of those who
desired to rldelncrensed and when the ter
minus was reached oVery available Inch of
space waa occupied. . No sooner hod the
red lamps on the rear car of the first train
disappeared in half lit shades of the great
tunnel, when another train drew Into City
Hall station, and it was Just as quickly
filled. The second train, too, received aa
warm a welcome aa tho first.
The service was Inaugurated with a
three-minute schedule for locals and two
minute for expresses. The outer tracks
were given over to the former, while the
two center tracks carried the express
trains.
The people turned out enmasse to christen
the new road and it Is estimated that nearly
160,000 rode during the evening. The desire
of the people to ride on locals rather than
expresses caused a great crowding In the
stations In tho central part of the city, but
aside from this the opening was success
ful. Hundreds of policemen had been sta
tioned along the route, but the crowd was
so orderly that many of the reserves were
acnt back to their precinct quartera.
Above Cathedral parkway the trains
rolled out of the subway Into the open
of the overhead structure, and the dim
light of the underground gave way to the
darkness of the night. In every window
of tho tall apartment houses lining the
structure were enthusiastic people who
cheered the train as It passed by. Again
the cars dipped down Into the earth and
the passengers were landed at 14ft h stret.
Owing to the crowds at the stations no
attempt was made to make time on the
first trip.
Mile n Minute.
Most of the passengers crossed the street
and made the return in an, express. The
run to Brooklyn bridge was accomplished
In twenty-six minutes', which Included
eight stops. Running at times at a speed
of a mile a minute In the half darkness
of the tunnel, the train dashed by sta
tions which only could be distinguished
by a glare of II U( and the .black mass
of spectators. ji
Brooklyn bridge was the terminus for
the express run, nnd there a noisy multi
tude recruited from Brooklyn and Man
hattan vied with each other In hailing the
precursor of rapid transit. Scarcely less
noisy was the reception given the train
bearing Mayor MeClellan and his party In
the nfternoon. Steam sirens whistled them
selves hoarse 3md bell throughout the city
proclaimed the fact that the train was on
the way. The mayor stood In the power
box, and In Just twenty-five minutes piloted
the train through the great catacombs of
the subway from City Hall to Washington
Heights.
