Skobel the Siberian Strong Man Tests Rubber Cables
A peculiar encounter at a Fourth Street rubber store ends with Skobel testing heavy rubber cables for arm strength. The Siberian strong man dominates the two 2-foot cables, breaks them, and insists on paying for them per a prior agreement. The scene shifts to a discussion on Japan's growing industrial power and U.S. naval strength, citing articles from National Review and Nineteenth Century.
