The Russian ships have anchored within the Ma-San-Pho har- bor, alongside the Japanese ships. Several brigades of Russian troops have been moved forward to the Korean boundary and are now encamped on the border. Diplomatic negotiations are still proceeding at Tokio. These do not relate to the evacuation of Manchuria by the Russian troops, but to the future of Korea. The Patrie to-day, in a special from Darmstadt, published an interview of Alexander Sawinski, the Secretary of Foreign Af- fairs, with Minister Lamsdorff, who, it is claimed, spoke on the authority of his chief on Russian-Japanese relations. M. Sav- inskd is quoted as saying: “Our agents at Tokio have informed us that Japan desires war and is prepared for it. We have enough troops in Siberia to resist all the Japanese force.” Regarding Turkey and Bulgaria, M. Savinski said fhat the accord between Russia and Austria was stronger than ever and that he did not believe war between those two countries would occur, ! YOKOHAMA, Oct. 8—Accordiug to al] reports, to-day, the date fixed for the evacuation of parts of Manchuria by the Russian troops passed without a Russian move toward the evacu- ation of Manchuria. In the meantime the Russo-Japanese nego- tiations regarding Korea and Manchuria are proceeding in Tokio Rosen. The latter is acting under direct instructions from Ad- miral Alexieff, viceroy of the Far East. The prospect is considered doubtful unless Russia makes sub- stantial concessions. The rumor of the Japanese rejection of the Russian demands is officially denied. The press to-day was of- ficially warned against indulging in sensationalism.

C, Oct. 8.—James H. | It was a calumny on the colonies to say | Tillman was a witness in his own behalf to-day in his trial for the murder of N. G. Gonzales. He was on the stand an hour and will continue his testimony to- | morrow. Thirteen witnesses were heard to-day. Tiliman, when he took the stand, was asked to explain Incidents to which refer- ence had been made during the trial. He | pledged not to give effect to the flscal re- was asked with regard to any messages he may have sent to Gonzales, saying that he had sent a verbal message by George 8. Legare, asking him (Gonzales) to meet him in Georgia. He sald Gbnzales wanted | the invitation put in writing, but he was | afraid it was a trap. He sald also that he did not want to violate any of the dueling laws of his State. Asked as to Gonzales’ attitude toward his military career, he saia: “It has al- ways been bitter toward me since I was 21 years of age.” Relative to the organization of a com- pany of Indian scouts which had been re- ferred to, the defendant sald he wanted to organize such a company to take to the Philippines, but President McKinley and the ammy officers in Washington op- posed it. Asked how he was treated by Gonzales in his campaign for Governor, the de- fendant replied: “I think those editorials are fair samples of it.”" He denied that he had ever been traitor to his uncle, and sald he had not intentionally been dis- courteous to the Senator. ——— BURGLARS ARE OPERATING AT THE OCEAN BEACH Direct Their Attention to Small Stands in Vicinity of Cliff House. Burglars directed their attention to the district about the Cliff House Monfay night. Their plunder was small, but they evidently anticipated that such would be the case, for they visited several places before they ceased their work. The first buildings visited were the large sheds and depot of the Butro Electric Rallread. While people were boarding and alighting from cars the thieves broke into a stand owned by Louis K. Lafkas. Then they passed along and repeated the ope- ration in the shop of another salesman. Further along another ‘stand was robbed and below the CHff House still another crime was committed. Lafkas appeared before the Board of Police Commissioners and made a request that he be permitted to carry a revolver. He said that his place had been robbed once before, on which occasion the bur- glars had entered by breaking a window, and that he felt insecure in the neighbor- hood. The last robberies have been re- ported to Captain of Deteetives Martin, who detailed two men on the case. It is thought that the robbers are members of a gang that has been operating recently south of Market street. The plunder they secured; at the beach was small, but they caused considerable damage in prying open the stands with jimmies. ————————— CAPTAIN BOHEN’S REMAINS ‘'TENDERLY LAID TO REST Many Friends of the Veteran Officer .

[ N— BALONICA, Oct. 8—A serious engage- ment occurred on October 6 between Turks and insurgents near Gumenjo, thir- ty-five miles from Salonica. 'About 300 Turks are reported to have been killed or wounded.” The fighting is still proceed- ing. SOFIA, Bulgaria, Oct. 8.—The feeling prevailing to-day was generally more hopeful than for some months past. It was based on reports which, while un- confirmed, appear to be well founded. These reports are to the effect that the Government is preparing to discharge the recruits summoned for three weeks' drill and that (this on the authority of the Dnevnik) the Turkish and Bulgarian Gov- ernments have reached an understanding .on the question of demobiumtion. ‘where- by Bulgaria will release 20,000 men and Turkey 40,000. If this agreement is car- ried out Bulgaria will disband all the re- servists recently summoned. Twenty-four thousand recruits will come under the colors. on October 9.

LONDON, Oct. 9.—The discussion over Chamberlain’s proposals continues keen, but so far the Liberals have made no organized attempt at a counter demon- stration. Asquith, the Liberal leader, spoke at Cinderford, an iron and coal center in Gloucestershire, vesterday, and in the course of his speech contended that it was impossible to retaliate uponl the protected countries without taxing| food or raw material, and experience showed that retaliation did more harm to the retaliators than to the retaliated. The | adoption of Chamberlain’s proposals‘ would foment quarrels with the colonies. that the unity of the empire was impos- | sible without preferential tariffs. James Bryce, M. P., speaking at Lan- caster, expressed similar opinions and | characterized Chamberlain’s statements as “grotesquely untrue and worthless.” Gerald Balfour, president of the Board of Trade, addressing a meeting at Leeds, reaffirmed that the Government was form proposals until after an appeal to the country had been made, and he inti- mated the possibility that after Chamber- lain had concluded his mission it might be found that the taxation of food was with- in the range of practical politics. Sir Charles Tupper, the Canadian ex- Premier, presiding at a meeting in Lon- don, expressed his complete approval of Chamberlain’s policy. The Miners’ Federation of Great Brit- ain at a meeting in Glasgow to-day, after a heated discussion, passed a resolution, by 89 to 5, ‘‘that in regard to the views of the Premier and Mr. Chamberlain the federation believes that the policy they foreshadow in regard to protection would be a great mistake and would ultimately lead to the ruin of this country, and here- by resolves to protest agalnst any altera- tion of the free trade policy which has existed for the past sixty years.” CAPE TOWN, Oct..8.—Interviews with leading men in the South African colonies show that the general trend of opinion strongly favors Mr. Chamberlain’s Glas- gow programme.

He added, however, that upon the report of Manley, who was immediately in charge, he was able to say that the latter’s first impression that there had been defective balancing was corrected by an examina- tion.

KOREA THE STORM ENTER IN CONFLICT OF RIDAL NATIONS Continued From Page 1, Columns 6 and 7. vty dctaile: Tt includessEeanapirtsl Which could’ be: viedtin an invasion of Japan by carrying troops from Dalny, one of the terminals of the Trans-Siberian Railroad. The mobilization of the fighting forces of the two powers is taken as showing that they both have thrown off the mask and acknowledged that the Manchurian question is of the past and less vital than the Korean situation. Japan is directing a protest against Russia’s aggressive policy in Korea rather than in Man- churia. The reported movements of Russian regiments to the fron- tier of Korea is regarded as the expected consequence of the dec- lination of the request that the Russian lumber concessionaires in Korea be protected, made upon the Korean Government by the Russian Minister at Seoul. e was reported as having declared ‘that if Korea did not protect the concessionaires Russian troops would be thrown into the troubled district for that purpose. The report that Russia has proposed to Japan a partition of Korea, the upper half going to Russia and the lower half. to Japan, is not regarded here as well founded. It is believed, how- ever, that Russia may have made some propositions in regard to the continuance of Russia and Japan in Korea. London Foreign Office Doubts News. LONDON, Oct. 8.—The Foreign Office has heard nothing of the reported gath- ering of Russlan warships at Ma-San-Pho. The Foreign Office reiterates that Government advices give no indication of the possibility of a Russian-, Japanese outbreak. The Japanese Minister here, Baron Hayashl, to-day described the announce- ment made by the London Daily Mall's correspondent at Kobe, Japan, that Baron de Rosen, the Russian Minister to Japan, had presented a note to the Japanese Government contending that Japan had no right to intervens in the question of the_evacuation of Manchuria and characterizing the proposed partition of Ko- rea between Korea and Japan as being “fantastical and unworthy of considera- tion." “The news from Kobe,”” the Minister says, from Shanghal.” He reiterated that there was nothing in the situation in Korea to occasion un- easiness. 7 “I have not heard, and I do not believe,” added the Japanese Minister, “that Russia has intimated her refusal to evacuate Manchuria and that she has re- fused to allow Japan to interfere with her occupation. I see nothing in the situa- tion at the present moment that supports the reports of a warlike attitude on the part of Russia and Japan.” The Minister added that he had not received a word regarding any concentra- tion or alarming movements of the Russian fleet in the Far East. Regarding the report that the Russian fleet had arrived at Ma-San-Pho Baron Hayashi remdrked that Russia had only about forty war vessels in the whole Far East and it would be a physical impossibility, on account of coal and other sup- plies, the Minister further asserted, for them to remain at Ma-San-Pho. Tt would be the most unlikely place for them to go to, even if Russia contemplated hostilities, as it was within easy striking distance of Japan's strongest navdl base at Tsu, in the Straits of Korea. So far as Baron Hayashl .knows, it would be equally unreasonable for the Japanese fleet to go to Ma-San-Pho. The dispatch from the British Minister to Japan, Sir Claude Macdonald, while detalling many requests made by Russia in the negotiations in Tokio, in connec- tion with the concessions in Korea, relating chiefly to wharves, made no reference to any possibility of an impending crisis.

ANACONDA, Mont., Oct. 8.—Sherift George Storrar and Deputy Sheriff Malloy were called to the ranch home of Willlam Benninger this evening to arrest a man who had been creatiiig trouble there. He ‘was brought to this city and placed in the county jail, and the officers have reason to believe that their prisoner is Frank Case, one of the convicts who escaped from the Folsom (Cal) prison on July 27 last. The suspect gave his name to the officers as John Kelly. According to the story told by members of the Benninger family, Kelly visited their house in company with two other men about 5 o'clock in the evening and asked for food. Kelly alone accepted Mrs. Benninger’s invitation to enter, and while she was preparing him a meal he whipped out a revolver and began shoot- ing, apparently without any object. Word was sent to the Sheriff’s office and Kelly :u arrested in a barn, where he had hid- en. with the Board of Elections was made without protest from either Grout or Fornes, and thus one step in the process of substitution has been accomplished.
