Eianplra of How Uovernmrnt Traln
lasT la Made Seralrrable In the
Dlrrrllna of Important
t nslrrtaetlna.
The government of the I'nlted 8tHtrs main
tain two very notable whooln. Cne 1b the
Military acadomy at Went Point, the other
th Naval academy at Annupolli.. An a mut
ter of fact, every department of the govern
ment la, In a sense, a training school anil
a knowledBje of th life hlatorlea of many
captains of Industry and finance throush
out the land would show that much of
their success In later life was due to the
knowledge and experlenre gained while
they were serving the government In their
early years. In the military and naval
establishment men of talent are not, tinder
present conditions, so liable to leave the
service as they were In the past. Never
theless, the executive ability gained and
fostered during military life has In many
notable Instances been found of value In
commercial pursuits. I'lty governments
have also been Indebted for many Improve
ments to the skill, energy and scrupulous
honesty of men who had In the past worn
shoulder straps In the military service.
Jt Is hardly necessary In thin connection
to mention the late Colonel Waring, who
revolutionized street cleaning methods In
the city of New York and opened the eyes
of Inhabitants to the possibility of keeping
the streets and avenuos of the city In
proper condition. The lesson taught by
Colonel Waring was so thoroughly learned
that, notwithstanding the criticisms and
statements to the contrary, the streets of
the. American metropolis are as a rule kept
In much better condition than those of the
average city. r
Another of the men who, after spending
years In the service of the government,
was called to fill a position of Importance
In the outside world Is Hear Admiral Fran
cis T. Bowles, formerly chief constructor
of the navy and recently made the presi
dent, of the Kore River Ship and Engine
company In Boston at a salary, tt Is said,
of $26,000 a year. At the head of one of
the great educational Institutions In the
ame city In Henry Smith Prltchetf, who
resigned from the government service when
superintendent of the coast end geodetic
survey to become the president of tho
Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Tregtaary at Training; School.
Instances of this sort might be multi
plied Indefinitely. . Each of thf greut de
partments of the government has Its grad
uates doing work of Importance In tho
business world. While the army and the
navy have sent out many highly trained
specialists It Is, perhaps, the Treasury de
partment which has proved the greatest
ucccess as a training school for business
life. In the army and navy many mo
tives combine to keep the bright and
energetic young nan In the service. He la
actuated by a feeling of duty to the gov
ernment which has educated him, ha has
before him the hope of distinction and
he knows that right conduct and devotion
to duty are guarantees that he will be re
tained in his position until he reaches the
age of retirement, and that afterwards the
government will provide him with an in
come during his declining years. To the
man of exceptional ability In the Treasury
department, however, these Incentives to
continued service are lacking. When one
of Its officers or employes by the work
which he has done attracts the attention
of private corporations or institutions
which have noted his career and worth, a
. flattering offer la made for his services
and It Is seldom declined. Oo over the
list of bank men In New York, Chicago
and other large centers and you will And
not a few who have gained their first lau
rels In government work. Take, for In
stance, the Chase National bank of New
York. The former president, Mr. II. W.
Cannon- .and the new president, Mr. A.
Barton Hepburn, are both ex-comptrollers
of the currency. Take the National rark
Bank. Mr. Albert H. Wlggln, who re
cently left the National Park to beevme
the vice president of the Chase National,
won his first spurs as a bank examiner,
whore his ability attracted auch marked
attention that he Immediately received flat
tering inducements from Boston banking
Interests and Inter from those of New
Yor. Going to Chicago, we find the presi
dent of the Commercial National bank of
that city, James H. Eckels, to be an ex
comptroller of the currency In a recent
administration. Similar examples might
be found In Philadelphia and others of the
leading .cities of the country.
Tare Wttr Comptrollers.
Mr. Cannon, the former president of the
Chase bank, served as comptroller of the
currency In 1884 and In 1881 was a member
of the International monetary conference
at Brussels. In addition to his general
knowledge of banking he has paid especial
Attention to railway Interests and Is a
director In a number of large railway com
panies. Mr. Hepburn's government training was
svn extensive one. Over twenty years ago
lie was the superintendent of the banking
department of the state of New York and
later entered the national service as a
Wnk examiner, becoming comptroller of
the currency In laM and serving two years
In that rapacity. When he returned to
private lire In 1W3 a position was awaiting
fclra and he Immediately became the pres
ident of the Third National bank of New
York, and has since been known as a man
Of wide Influence In political and financial
Circles, representing conservative forces In
banking. Ills name Is known from the
Atlantic to the Pactno and Is a synonym
for firm, sound, conservative and properly
progressiva methods of banking.
Mr. Wlggln, the vice president of the
Chase National bank, as the first active
Mca president of the National Turk bank,
was a responsible officer to an Institution
With tao.000.000 of deposits and strong Van
Serbllt affiliations, Cornelius Vanderbllt be
ing on the board of directors and other
prominent family Interests being repre
sented by Btuyvesant Fish and August
Belmont.
The service of Mr. Eokles as comptroller
Is so recent that It Is still fresh In the
minds of the reading public. Inning his
service for the government In 113-7 he
made a national reputation. Mr. Rckles
wh ti lie entered the government employ
was a man less than 4 years of age. He
had been trained for the bar, being a grad
uate of the Albany iN. Y.) Iw school In
the dass of 1SW), but he found that his In
clinations led to the world of finance rather
than to courts of law. Nevertheless, bis
early experience as a lawyer has doubtless
been of as-tiFtance to him and has con
tributed to his subsequent success. He Is
now the head of one of the three largest
banks of Chicago with wide spheres of
Influence extending throughout the whole
northwest. He Is a director of many other
banking Institutions and has served as re
ceiver of the t'hlrsKO traction roads, being
therefore a potent Influence In all the local
transportation Interests of the metropolis
of the middle west.
They Work Tosrether.
These men at different times in the Treas
ury department have since their gradua
tion from the training school of the gov
ernment been brought Into active relations
with one another. Three of the four are
among the directors of the financial In
stitution which may be said to have at
tracted more attention during the past
year than any other of the younger bank
ing concerns In New York. It is significant
In these days, when so many trust com
panies are subjecting themselves to criti
cism because of their attempts to do a
banking business in a manner not contem
plated by the original companies, that three
ex-comptrollers of the currency should be
on the board of directors of a company
which has declared that It will scrupu
lously refrain from bidding accounts away
from commercial banks and will not Invade
the proper provinces of savings Institu
tions. This Is the Bankers' Trust com
pany, formed, a the name Implies, by
banking Interests which have found that
the trust companies to which they were
forced to turn business were becoming
active competitors In the straight banking
field. A company composed entirely of
bankers may be said to be romposed of
experts. These men believe that many
trust companies of today have wandered
from the original Intention of their pro
moters, and the guttling spirits of the new
enterprise are of the opinion that the nolu
tlon of the present difficulties lies In a re
turn to what were originally considered the
essential purposes of such an organisation.
The experiment has been watched with in
terest and the rapid growth of the company
has given evidence that the policy which
It ha adopted is the wise one.
PHASES OF CUING 10 WAR
(Continued from Thirteenth Page)
finished and proudly exhibited thun their
owner fell upon an even greater scheme.
Down to Yokohama ho went by first train
and now ho wears, ruin or shine, a pair of
enormous rubber boots of the Gloucester
fisheruutn type, and the rumor ubout the
hotel is that he is so fond of them that
they occupy n part of his bed every night.
All this and still no regulations. They
came, however, In the course of a long
time. There ure fourteen sections, begin
ning with the provision that application to
go to the field muet be made to the War
department and be accompanied by a
sketch of the applicant's life and a' docu
ment of personal guarantee, signed by the
proprietor of the newspaper for which the
applicant works. Foreign correspondents
need not sketch their lives and the guar
anty Is dispensed with.
Section 2 provides that the applicant must
have done newspaper work for one year at
least. No greenhorns are to be permitted
to spend their vacations with the Japan se
army.
The third section provides that foreign
ers may take an Interpreter, for whom they
must give a personal guaranty. By section
4 they are permitted to take alBO one serv
ant, guaranteed like the Interpreter.
Then comes the prize, section 6. "The
authorities, when they consider it neces
sary, may cause the selection of one per
son to act as Joint correspondent for sev
eral newspaper."
Sections 8 and 7 provide that passes shall
be given to those correspondent who are
permitted to go to the front, and that they
ahull be attached to headquarters of the
columns they accompany.
Section 8 saya: "Correspondents shall al
ways wear foreign clothe, and to their
left arm shall be attached a white band,
about two Inches wide, on which the name
of the newspaper represented shall be
printed in Japanese In red."
Pactions 9 and 10 provide that the corre
spondents shall always carry their permits
and shall show them to any Japanese offi
cer who desires to see them. They must
observe any rulea made by the command
ing officers of thelt respective columns, and
may be set down for failure to do so.
Section 11 provides for a field censorate
as follows: "The war correspondent will
not be permitted to dispatch his communi
cations (whether they be correspondence
for publication or private letters or te'e
granis) until after their examination by
the officer appointed by the commanding
officer. No communication containing
cypher or symbols will be permitted to be
dispatched."
The remaining sections promise that tho
nrmy will do Its best to facilitate the cor
respondents, and In caae of necessity pro
vide food and transportation. They also
declare correspondents, their Interpreters
and servants subject to court-martial fur
violation of the criminal law, the military
criminal In w or the law for the preserva
tion of military secrets.
Hopes Iashed Again.
There was nothing In these regulations to
cause dismay, and In fact most of them had
been foreseen. The limitation to one serv
ant made It look as If a man would have
to do either his own cooking or his own
camp work, for It was unlikely that he
could find a man who could or would do
both for him.
But that was not an Insurmountable hard
ship, and the promlae to provide transpor
tation, by vessel If necessary, seemed to

and sleeping begs Increased correspondingly
In number.
For a day or two after these regulations
enpeared In the Official (".alette there was
lively work among the newspaper men mak
ing what they then thought would be final
pi epa rations The long expected and ea
g' rly desired passes would surely be Issued
now In a day or so. They were certain of
It when notices were posted at the hotel by
the military attaches of the Hritish lega
tion, saying that the War office desired to
have nil the applications presented as soon
as possible. Hut nfter a day or two of
anxious expectancy the old air of uncer
tainty came back, Indecision and Indeflnlte
ness lurked In every corner, and the busi
ness of the hour was the old petty discus
sion of minor details of kit, or hot argu
ment as to the value of this or that stylo
of an agreed-on necessity.
The siege of the War office for Informa
tion mas regularly laid. Kvery day sorties
were made, sometimes by detached parties,
sometimes almost en masse. One by one
little fragments of seeming Information
were picked tip and the utmost wan made
of them. The wonderful conspiracy of si
lence with which the Japanese had cloaked
their earlier preparations for war was con
tinued as far as what should be done with
war correspondents was concerned.
Then came the crusher. It was officio, ly
Intimated to several men on the same day
that they would be expected to take with
them Into the field only what luggage one
servant could carry. Jupiter PIuvlus, frogs
and fishes! No tent, no sleeping bag, no
fur rug. hardly even a fur coat, no cook
stove, no typewriter, not even a comforta
ble mess kit! You might as well either not
try to 150 or make up your mind to live In
your saddle pockets and draw rations from
the army, which Is likely to mean untold
quantities of rice and plenty of hot water
"Oh, pickles!" exclaimed the London
artist, who has been camnalgning since
Bull Run. and dashed madly off to consult
the military attache of Ills legation.
"We Shall Have Jam."
That brought matters to a crisis. Some
genius proposed to establish a field can
teen. A man appeared, who said he repre
sented two well known Toklo firms, who
are contractors to the government and pro
posed on their behalf to undertake to fur
nish transportation for the foreign corre
spondents and to have up with every col
umn which they accompany a steady sup
ply of European food.
"My word!" cried the London artist, back
breathless from his legation, "we shall
have jam after all!"
Then there was a comical meeting of all
the correspondents, a goodish battalion of
them. The radical difference between the
American way ft doing business and the
British was sharply shown. The American
were for agreeing with the genius who pro
posed the scheme on the spot. He offered
to sell them something they all wanted to
buy, and they were willing to close on the
spot. All they asked him to do was to g-
to the War office and get permission to do
as he proposed.
But most of the Englishmen wanted
something more. It seemed to them there
must be a motive back of the proposal, and
they meant to. know what it was. They
needed a triple riveted assurance that the
man was not going to tell the .War office
that he represented them In any way, and
It must be made perfectly clear that he
was going entirely on his own account.
Finally a paper was drawn up setting forth
a number of things which the man was
to agree to do. or rather which the firms
he represented were to do, and the man
went to the War office. There, sad to re
late, he was promptly turned down.
But, as always happens with an Inven
tion, a man atood ready with an Improve
ment. This man went to the Wnr office
and explained that the scheme was really
a good one. It would rave the government
from a lot of annoyance and trouble look
ing out for -the comfort of the mob of for
eigners, a well as from the expense. More
over, It would tend to make the foreigners
more comfortable and therefore better sat
isfied, and for that reason less likely to
take unpleasant views of the situations
about which they wrote.
The War office grasped the Idea. They
hud been figuring on supplying the cor
respondents at government expense, a thing
which none of the correspondents desired,
and they were glad to know that the news
paper men much preferred to provide for
themselves and to be under no pecuniary
obligation whatever to the government.
At the same time the military attaches
of the three legations represented hero by
correspondents presented to the ,War office
Identical letters, drawn up by a committee
of newspaper men, setting forth broadly
what . they desired. The plan went through.
The War office told the man with the prop
osition that he could have the desired per
mission, and there was Joy again in the
camp of the campaigners.
Making? V Food 1.1st.
Iast night there was a general meeting
to aettle details. First and most important
was the matter of transportation. Every
man wanted something different, but an
agreement was finally reached. So with
other matters, and finally the great ques
tion of the list of stores that should be
kept on hand by the field caterer was
reached.
"Hour!" sung out an American, naming
the first Item.
"Bucon!" cried another American.
"Sardines!" said a Brltsher.
"Jam!" echoed the Ixmdon artist.
The chairman wrote It down and added
eagerly:
"Yes; lots of it!"
Bo it went through the various Items
forty men considered, absolutely essential,
and, wonderful to relate, there was almost
Immediate agreement on one kind of
smoking tobacco. Iaist on the list was
champagne, the suggestion of an English
man. The limit of transportation for which It
was agreed to ask was fixed at 300 pounds
for each correspondent, not to Include that
of his Interpreter. When It had been set
tled, and the contractor had his papers
ready to go again to the War office for
confirmation of the bargain, the meeting
broke up and there was a general adjourn
ment to a place where thirst may be
quenched.
"When I was in the Soudan," said the
Loiulun artlRt. "I had six camels and two
horses, and even then had not enough."
'Let's see," said an American, "that
would be three ramela for Scotch, two for
Jam and one for food, with a horse for
your clothing and one for yourself. What
mre could you want?"
"Pickles!" replied the Britisher, emphat
ically. But what does It matter? Today comes
the news that the Japanese have already
got 10,000 men In Seoul, and the land
movements we have been waiting so long
to see have begun without us.
The general staff calmly announces that
when "the two armies are In contact" the
correrpondents will be permitted to go to
the front. There is no sign of the Issuance
of a pass, and the maia business of the
newspaper men has reverted to the selec
tion of camp beds and the making of
leather writing portfolios.
We understand there is a war on be
tween Japan and Russia. The only Indica
tion of the fact there la in Toklo Is the
presence of a large staff of highly cer
tificated war correspondents, all busily In
active, occupied only In general discussion
of details of camp gear and In replying to
a multitude of Invitations to luncheons,
parties, dinners and evenings at bridge.

WON A RUSSIAN VICTORY

lution, Helpel tke Muxovi'.e Empire.
SENT TURKISH FLEET TO THE BOTTOM
Karat Prestige of the Hepnblle and
of aa Aatoerary the Work
of One Man Hetnrned
Iter to Paris.
How .nany Americans are famlllsr with
the fact that John Paul Jones, the father
of the American navy, once won a sea vic
tory for the Russians? How many realize
that the victorious American navy at San
tiago, and the defeated Russian navy at
Tort Arthur, both owe their origin to bril
liant victories won by an extraordinary
man? Sl.igiilat. Indeed, that the naval
greatness of the most advanced rr public
and the most medieval autocracy on earth
should have both been the work of one
man.
After the revolution, and the famous vic
tory which he won over the Serapix. Jnuca,
after n short sojourn In this country, re
turned to Paris, where he fell In with
Prince Fotemkln. the favorite of Cathe Ine
II of Russia, who presented him at the
court of his mistress in St. Petersburg.
This was In 1787. Some time before this
Catherine had made a tour of her realm,
Totemkln acting as a sort of advance agent
and fixing up agreeable surprises for her,
among other things posting over the gates
of the city of Kherson the legend. "This
Is the way to Kycantium." At the same
lime Catherine had been meddling In the
affairs of Poland, and many other things
had occurred which gave the Turks such
nn alarm that they lost no time In declar
ing war against the Muscovite empire.
Since the days of Peter the Great the Rus
sians had been employing foreign officers
ns commanders of their navy, and there
happened at this time to be a particularly
strong demand for such In the war against
the Turks.
Not Adequately Rewarded.
Consequently, John Paul Jones, luvlng at
that time the most brilliant naval record in
the world, was placed In command of the
Russian fleet In the Black sea, to the great
disgust of the English, French, German
and Swtdlsh mercenaries, and the Russian
officers as well, many of whom resigned,
rather than serve under "a vulgar adven
turer." Rear Admiral Paul Jones was not
long In command of the Black sea squadron
before he fell in with the Turkish fleet oft
Sebaftopol. A terrific buttle followed, re
sulting in a glorious victory for Admiral
Jones, who, on that occasion, displayed
the Fame undaunted courage that he had
shown In the battle off Flamborough Head,
when, In reply to the question put by the
commander of the Rerapls, "Have you
struck?" Jones replied. "1 have not yet
begun to fight." The glorious victory won
by Jones destroyed the Turkish naval
power In the Black Bea, added the Crimea
and Bessarabia to Russia and was produc
tive of a greater crop of hate.
How Jones Fell.
Jones received a handsome present from
the Empress Catherine, but It was a mere
nothing compared with the estate and
other presents given to one of the Ger
man princes who served under Jones In
the engagement, and who had contributed
little, if anything, to the victory.
A general row followed, In which' all
might have gone well enough with Jones,
who undoubtedly would have come out the
victor, had It not been for one thing.
Jones was as ready with his tongue as he
was with his sword. Moreover he was a
stranger to Russian customs, and his
habit of saying what he saw fit and not
as his superiors directed, did not set well
with the Russian nobility. Had ho culti
vated the good graces of Prince Potemkln
he might have obtained his Just teward,
but the facts are that the victory over
the Turks was won in direct violation of
Potemkln's advice and Jones made no
bones of setting at naught the Ideas of the
Russian grandee.. This offended Potem
kln, who was not accustomed to such In
dependence. As a result of thus falling at
loggerheads with the favorite of the em
press, Jones lost influence and wan re
moved from the command of the Black
Bea squadron, and placed In command of
the few old tubs which constituted the
Russian fleet in the storm-tossed Baltic.
A few months of this Inaction was enough
for Jones, and he left the Russian navy,
returning to Paris. He never forgot this
Injustice, and for the remainder of his
life never let a day pass without writing
letters to the Russian court, trying once
again to obtain command of the Russian
Black Sea fleet.
Russia's Vavrlgtated Population.
Russia proper, that Is to say, that part
of It Inhabited by Russians, and In which
the Russian language is spoken, is eon
fined to an area about as large as the
southern states, around the cities of Mos
cow and Kiev, the Baltic coast having In
tlmea past formed a part of Finland,
Germany, Sweden, and Poland. Thus the
whole Baltic coast of Russia Is Inhabited
by Germans, Swedes and Finns, who
speak their own language and are mem
bers of tho Lutheran church, while the
coast of the Baltic, which was wrested by
Admiral Jones from Turkey and tho khans
of Crimea, la Inhabited by Tartars, Turks,
Greeks, Italians and Roumanians. As
for the officers, they are made up from
every nation In Europe, with a scattering
here and there of Russians. The com
mrnder of the Russian battleship Variag.
captured by the Japs fn the battle off
Port Arthur, was Captain Rodney. An
other commander mentioned In the dis
patches from the far east Is Admiral
Stackelberg Washington Post.
