MANY HEAVY GUHS SENT FORWARD KURCPATKIN MAKING PREPARA- TIONS TO MEET JAPANESE TURNING MOVEMENT. 8t. Petersburg, Oct. 10.—The mea- gerness of the news from the front is increasing the uncertainty regarding developments. There is good warrant for the belief that General Kuropatkin is strengthening his left flank to meet the Japanese turning movement, his troops occupying a triangle from Fu- shun to Mukden and Tie pass. Over 800 guns have arrived at the front and the activity of the Russian skirmish- ers below the Hun river creates the impression that Kuropatkin may con- template assuming the offensive. The | war office, however, gives no encour- agement of this idea, though naturally, if such a move is contemplated, the war oflice could not be expected to ad- mit it. NO COMPROMISE POSSIBLE. Russians Declare Japs Must Be Driven From Asiatic Continent. St. Petersburg, Oct. 10.—Replying to the statement of Count Okuma, leader of the Japanese Progressive party, that the war with Russia would be long but that Japan would win in the n¢, the Novoe Vremya declares that the idea ol a possible compromise with the war must be prosecuted by Russia in such a way that there can be no | possibility of Japan’s renewing the under the menace of revenge for Al- 5 ‘it we conclude peace with Japan all our efforts in the Far East will be valueless and we shall have to spend cnoimous sums 1o keep up our arma- ment there. The Japanese, once for all, must be driven out of the Asiatic continent.” It is now accepted here that the re- ported naval fight off Port Arthur was purely imaginative. The naval ex- perts of the newspapers dwell on the difficulties which the Port <Arthur squadron must experience in escaping after the disastrous sortie of Aug. 10. The general opinion is that the squad- | ron could not venture out unless some- lthinx had happened to the Japanese arships of which there is n 4 t i fant czarevitch is honorary colonel. struggle. Europe 1or thirty years was ships could not go to e neutral port of Chefoo, but must head for Vladivos- tok. If the Baltic fleet was approach- ing, however, the whole situation would be different, WOULD END THE WAR. Pope Pius Said to Be Trying to Re- store Peace in the East. Rome, Oct. 10.—During the past few days M. Nariskine, Russian agent at the Vatican, has been in frequent con- ference with the cardinal secretary of state. The discussion has been upon how to end the war in the Far Kast and the pope is very much in earnest in offers of mediation to the Russian government. The pope consented to act in the interest of peace at the solicitation of the German emperor, who, being informed by his political advisers it would be impossible for Germany to undertake this task, urged the pope to tender his good offices. So far the Vatican has confined it- self to negotiations with Russia, but if Russian consents to the head of the Catholic church making the first pro- Dposal of peace the Vatican will open direct negotiations with Japan. EXECUTION IS DEADLY. Russians at Port Arthur Using Hand Grenades. Tokio, Oct. 10.—According to a pri- vate letter received from a Japanese officer now with the besieging forces before Port Arthur the Russians are effectively using hand grenades filled with a high explosive. The execution of these grenades when accurately thrown is deadly, the officer says, and their use probably accounts for the closeness of the fighting. GOING TO THE SCENE OF WAR. First Troops of Russian Imperial Guard Start for the Front. St. Petersburg, Oct. 10.—The first troops of the imperial guard left St. Petersburg during the day for the front. They consisted of the Second division of the Finland guards, of which the in- Order of Flour for Japan. Pendleton, Ore., Oct. 10.—A local flour mill has received an order from Hongkong for 80,000 sacks of flour which is said to be for the Japanese government. Twenty thousand sacks of this will be sent this month by way of Portland and the balance from Ta- coma and Seattle. The same mill has Jjust completed a shipment of 60,000 sacks for Oriental ports.

New York, Oct. 10.—Inga Hanson, a young woman who two years ago sued the Chicago City Railway com- pany for $50,000, has been arrested here on a charge of perjury in con- nection with alleged injuries received in an accident. She claimed in her suit that she was rendered blind and ‘Ahalf S to ' Dight and he BUILDING IS WRECKED ROEBERS DYNAMITE BANK AT FREELAND, IND., AND GET AWAY WITH $20,000. EXPLOSION AWAKENS THE RESIDENTS "QUICKLY GATHER AT WRECKED 1 BUILDING BUT THE ROB- BERS HAD ESCAPED. Fowler, Ind., Oct. 10.—Robbers dy- namited the bank at Freeland early in the day and it is reported they secured $20,000. The safe was blown open and looted and the entire side of the bank building was blown out. The noise awakened the people of the town, who hurriedly gathered at the wrecked building, but the robbers were gone and no clew has been ob- tained. Two strangers were in the town the previous night, but it is not known whether they had aaything to do with the robbery. Everything of value in the safe was taken. FALSE RUMORS CAUSE A RIOT. Italian Mothers Frantic Over Alleged Plot to Kill Children. New York, Oct. 10.—False rumors that a plot was on foot to destroy a public school in the Upper East Side caused a riot of several Italian ‘women, mothers of the children at- tending the school, which excited the neighborhood, alarmed the teachers and pupils and required a force of po- lice reserves to quell. The women, with an unfounded fear that their off- spring were to be destroyed, stormed the school entrance and had not a po- liceman and the janitor slammed and locked the heavy doors in their faces the mob would have swarmed into the building. About a dozen of them did get inside and excited the pupils by their shrill cries. Those on the out- side joined in the uproar and the sit- uation was rapidly becoming serious when a patrol wagon loaded with re serves reached the scene. Finally the women were driven away and after the 900 children in the school had been quieted they were dismissed and sent home. Condition Less Alarming.
