Russia agrees | that the Malacca shall not be brought | before a prize court and undertakes ;thut no similar incident shall occur i In the future. | As a matter of formality the Malac- | ca’s cargo will be examined at Suda bay, island of Crete, in the presence of | the British and Russian consuls, the | Russian government having ordered | her to stop at Suda bay for that pur- pose. A claim for damages as a re- | sult of delaying the steamer will be | presented in due course of time i through the British embassy. ! The Russian authorities, after re- ceiving the report of the caplain of the St. Petersburg, tried to stop the Malacca at Port Said, but she had al- ready sailed. Both countries in the final agree- ment displayed a conciliatory spirit. In usually well informed quarters the belief is expressed that the recall of the volunteer fleet steamers has been ordered. EARLY RELEASE PROMISED | RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR SO IN: FORMS BRITISH FOREIGN SECRETARY. London, July 23.—In accordance with instructions from Russian For- eign Minister Lamsdorff, Count Benck- endorff, the Russian ambassador to Great Britain, has informed Foreign Secretary Lansdowne ihat immediate- ly upon the establishment of the pres- ence of the broad arrow—the British government mark—upon the munitions on board the seized steamer Malacca and the fact that no other cargo of a contraband character is on board that vessel she will at once be released. In response to this notification Lord Lansdowne assured Count Bencken- \ | dorff that all the boxes marked with the broad arrow were the property of the Britisa government and the secre- tary added that he had been informed by the Peninsular and Oriental com- pany, the owners of the Malacca, that there was no contraband on board, a statement which the British govern- | ment accepted because of the standing of the company. Russia is now await- campany’s | statement on the ground that fraud might have occurred and shipments of contraband goods substituted for goods declared on the manifest. How and where this point will be determined has not been announced, but Count Benckendorff has given the heartiest assurances to Lord Lansdowne of the desire of the Russian government tc settle the dispute in an amicable spirit and no difficulty in arranging this de tail .is expected. Nevertheless the British government regrets the delay in releasing the ship, fearing further public excitement. The Associated Press learns that the Russian reply malkes na reference .| Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After Ten Years of Suffering. “I wish to say a few words in praise of Chamberlian’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,’ says Mrs. Mattie Burge, of Mar- tinsville, Va. “I suffered from chronic diarrhoea for ten years and during that time tried vari- ous medicines without obtaining any permanent relief. Last sum- mer one of my children was taken with cholera morbus, and I pro- cured a bottle of this remedy. Only two doses were required to give her relief. I then decided to try the medicine myself, and did not use all of one bottle be- fore [ was well and I have never since been troubled with that complaint. One cannot say too much in favor of that wonderful medicine.” This remedy is for sale at Barker’s Drug store. For Sale.

JouN MoB to the general question of the Darda: nelles. The Russian diplomats here excuse the action of the commander of the St. Petersburg in seizing the Malacca on the ground that he had no idea of the significance of the broad arrow REFUSED TO SHOW MANIFEST Reason Russian Commander Selzed the Malacea. St. Petersburg, July 23.—The repor of the captain of the St. Petersburg, which has at last reached the admiral ty, gives as his reason for summarily making a prize of the steamer Malac ca the fact that the British master of the Malacca declined to produce the. manifest of his cargo as required by international law when stopped by & belligerent in time of war. TENSION IS RELIEVED. American Charge at St. Sends Report. ‘Washington, July 23.—Spencer Ed- dy, the American charge d’affairs al St. Petersburg, has cabled the state department that the British embassy there has been officially notified thal the steamer Malacca has been releas ed and that in consequence the exist ing tension has been relieved.

Believe Japanese Are Preparing for a General Advance. St. Petersburg, July 23.—The army organ evidently believes that the Jap- anese are preparing for a general ad- vance from the east against the Rus- sian left. The paper estimates the Japanese purpose as follows: “The probable object of the Japan- ese advance is to move into the Liao river valley, which is north of our position at Zanze pass, in order to oc- cupy a more favorable position in the forward movement of the main army, which is posted along the Mo- tien, Lakho and Tapan passes, with a front ten miles to the south of the Saimatsza-Liaoyang road. The advan- tage of the delay consists in the possi- bility afforded in endangering our communications north of Liaoyang and the flanking of Lieutenant General Count Keller’s army in the north.” Regarding the new advantage gained by the Japanese still further north of the Saimatsza-Liaoya%y read. the ar- my organ considers that the Japanese operations there and the superiority of their forces at Motien pass, as shown in the engagement of July 17, prove that there have been great changes in the numerical composition of the Japanese forces. GENERAL BATTLE MAY RESULT. Japanese Advance on Mukden Precip- itates Heavy Fighting. St. Petersburg, July 23.—The Official Messenger prints the following special dispatch from Liaoyang, under date of July 20: “Our left flank yesterday withstood a powerful onslaught of the enemy, Reinforcements were sent out. “The Caucassian mounted brigade left Liaoyang this morning.” The above evidently refers to the Japanese advance reported by the As- sociated Press from Tatchekiao on the northern Saimatsza-Liaoyang road. If the advance on Mukden is con- tinued heavy fighting is imminent and a general battle may be precipitated. AFTER SEVERE FIGHTING JAPANESE UNDER GENERAL KU- ROKI SAID TO HAVE OCCU- PIED KIAOTUNG. Tokio, July 23.—It is reported here that General Kuroki occupied Kiao- tung on July 19 after a severe fight. The place had been fortified by the Russians, who defended it stoutly. The Japanese forces are said to have 300 men killed or wounded. General Kuroki’s Headquarters in the Field, via Fusan, Korea, July 23.— The Japanese attack upon the Rus- sians at Kiaotung yesterday resulted in another Russian disaster. Kiaotung is twenty-five miles from these head- quarters. Few details of the engage- ment have been received, but they in- dicate that the fighting was flerce. The Russians had more than one divis- ion engaged and artillery was used freely. The Russians are fortifying new po- sitions before Motien pass. -There was more men killed in ‘the fighting of Sunday, July 17, than can be buried and the Japanese are now engaged in cremating the bodies.

D., July 23.—Federal troops have been asked for and are being held in readiness to be sent here pending a promise by the gamblers that the “grafters” shall leave the city at once. The mayor, in a signed statement, notified Superintendent McPhaul of the government registration office that he was unable to cope with the situa- tion and requested that troops be call- ed for. Two hours later the request was withdrawn, At midnight the re- quest was renewed by the city author-l ities. Later a meeting of citizens was held and McPhaul issued an ultimatum to the city authorities, saying that the rioting and disorder positively Wouldi not be permitted again and that he | would remove the registration office | from Bonesteel to another point if a' répetition of the rioting occurred. Mr. ! McPhaul notified the government au- thorities that the town was past con- trol of the local authorities and ad- vised the sending of troops. About 10 o’clock a. m. a holdup oc- curred in front of the Citizens’ bank, whereby a man was relieved of -$30. Shortly after that another bold rob-: bery was committed on the main| street.

The robber walked away -and the victim, drawing a revolver, followed and made the footpad give up the money. As he Dpocketed his gun and money three other gamblers immediately covered him with their guns and took both his revolver and money. AMERICANS ASSASSINATED. Some Facts in Connection With Re- cent Affair in Mexico. Washington, July 23.—In answer to Acting Secretary of State Loomis’ de- mands for full information respecting the killing of two Americans in Aguas Caliente, Mexico, Consul Kaiser, at Mazatlan, has telegraphed as follows: “Americans telegraphed that Alcade Terres, nephew of General Terres, while intoxicated, went on business to ‘Way’s office, who requested him to re- turn when sober.
