Washington, Feb. -The senate will continue to consider the Panama treaty during the week, both in open and executive session. Senator Morgan has prepared speeches on different phases of the situation, which he will present in open session.

Sena tor McCumber expects to have the pension appropriation bill ready to consider during the week if there is time to take it up.

Hayward, pioneer of California and one of the great property owners and capitalists of the state, died Sunday afternoon at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Lane at 3102 Clay street. For sixteen hours prior to his death Mr.

Japanese are tearing up the Chinese railroad on the Kwan Tung peninsula to destroy the Russian line of communications with Dalny and Port Arthur. Revival of Oriental Pride. London, Feb. outbreak of war in the far east has been followed by a revival of Oriental pride which is more or less ominous. The Japanese have been under self-restraint when victorious, but elsewhere there are signs that the triumph of the Asiatic race over Russia in the opening round has appealed strongly to the Oriental imagination.

Dr. Morrison. one of the keenest observers, records in the Times the enthusiasm with which the Japanese successes have been greeted among all classes in China, and dispatches from India indi. cate that the defeats of Russia have created a profound impression throughout the peninsula. The heathen Chinese is not played out, and the mild-eyed Hindoo is peculiar.

The sequel to the Oriental gratification over the evidence that the Japanese are prompt, decisive and scientific in warfare may be an uncontrollable desire to share the white man's bur. den. May Last Several Years. There is a general impression among men who know the far east that the war will last several years. The importance of the issue between the combatants foreshadows a prolonged struggle.

If Russia emerges triumphant from the final stage of the war, she will annex Manchuria outright and acquire an invincible posttion at the Chinese capital. The Russians and Japanese are fighting for one of the greatest prizes of future empire, and are not likely to abandon the contest until all resources are exhausted. MUST REMAIN IN PRISON.
