PEASANTS JOIN RUSSIAN REVOLT

Faith in Rumor Anent Nobles’ Estates Causes Serious Trouble. ORDER UNDOWNERS TO LEAVE Emancipated slave* Believe the Csar Ha* Ordered Land to Brf Divided Among Them and Arrange for Distribution of Everything In sight. The revolutionary movement in southern and central Russia is spreading and the authorities are powerless to quell the disorders. The most significant feature is the manifest sympathy shown by a portion of the military. The labor population of the whole district between Moscow and Vladimir is in revolt. Encounters between the troops and workingmen have been numerous and many persons have been killed and wounded. A Uhlan regiment, commanded by Colonel Moroseff, refused to act against the workmen. In the southern provinces the situation is worse and its gravity is apparent from the fact that Dragomiroff, Governor General of Kieff; Pocarciff, vice director of the department of police, and other officials have joined Von Plehwe, the Minister of the Interior, at Kharkoff. The noted chateau of Romone, owned by Duke Alexander of Oldenburg, has been burned by the peasants, who practically ruined the estate. The duke is the father-in-law of the czar’s sister, Olga, who married his son, Duke Peter, last year. The Voronej sugar refineries have especially suffered from the outbreak. It now develops that the agitators wbo are chiefly responsible for the spread of the'revolutionary movement among the hungry peasants used a curious political canard to bring the former sdrfs and landowners into collision. A rumor was industriously circulated that the czar had ordered the lands of the nobles to be divided among the emancipated serfs. The peasants thereupon formed committees, under the commune officials, which waited on the landowners and ordered them to vacate the land withheld from the peasants, chose the crown agents, and proceeded to distribute the land and movables, leaving the nobles from fifteen to twenty acres each. The proceedings, which were orderly, were conducted with the utmost gravity until the authorities interfered. Thereafter there was riot, arson and devastation. In military circles it is believed that the army maneuvers, which have been planned to take place in Orel and Koursk, cannot occur, owing to the disturbed state of those governments.

HONOR DEPENDS UPON THE NAVY

Prime Object of Americans Should Be to Build Up the Service. PRESIDENT TO NAVAL CADETS Impresses Hi* Hearer* with the Necessity of Being Prepared to Bring Victory to the Stars and Stripe* by Beaching the Highest Efficiency. “We all of us earnestly hope that the occasion for war may never come, but if it has to come tnen this nation must win, and the prime factor in securing victory over any foreign foe must of necessity be the United States navy. If the navy fails us then we are doomed to defeat, no matter what may be our material wealth or the high average of our citizenship. It should, therefore, be an object of prime importance for every patriotic American to see that the navy is constantly built up and, above all, that it is kept to the highest point of efficiency, both in material and personnel." President Roosevelt thus defined the importance of the navy to the nation in his address to the graduating class at the Annapolis Naval Academy. “In receiving these diplomas,” said the president continuing, “you become men who above almost any others of the entire Union are to carry henceforth the ever-present sense of responsibility which must come with the knowledge that on some tremendous day it may depend upon your courage, your preparedness, your keen intelligence and knowledge of your profession whether or not the nation is again to write her name on the world’s roll of honor or to know the black shame of defeat.

“It cannot be too often repeated that in modern warfare, and especially in modern naval war, the chief factor in achieving triumph is what has been done in the way of thorough preparation and training before the beginning of the war. It is what has been done before the outbreak of war that is allimportant. After the outbreak all that can be done is to use to best advantage the great war engines and the seamanship, marksmanship and general practical efficiency, which have already been provided through a course of years of the navy department. “The best ships and guns and the most costly mechanism are utterly useless if the men are not trained to use them to the utmost possible advantage. From now on throughout your lives there can be no slackness on your part. Your duty must be present with you, waking or sleeping. You have got to train yourselves and you have got to train those under you in the actual work of seamanship, in the actual work of gunnery.” The president’s speech was followed by the presentation of prizes, which were awarded as follows: For excellence in target practice with guns— Frank D. Hall, Illinois, first prize, gold medal; Frank C. Martin, Illinois, second prize, silver medal. Gilbert J. Rowclift, Illinois, silver medal, for being the best cadet cane fencer. Earl P. Finney, Winnebago, Wis., pair of binoculars as second prize for handling boat under sail.
