It was the unanimous opinion of those who made the southern jour- ney under the direction of the Cali- fornia Promotion Committee that the time spent in sightseeing in the lower portion of the State could not have been better employed. Magnificent weather attended the travelers the en- tire round trip and afforded them the opportunity of gleanifg a great deal of information concerning Southern Cali- fornia. The improvements around San Pedro Harbor, the transformation of the desert about Riverside into beau- tiful orange groves and the beautify- ing of Redlands and Pasadena were really vevelations to many of 3 who southward and won for the Southern Californige residengs the admiration of men of the north who had often heard of the great work done in thet section of the te but had never appreciated its i the future welfare of California.

An expert of the depart- | ment has discovered that typhoid fever, | malaria fever and mosquitoes can be exterminated absolutely. Experiments have been made with the water sup- ply of New York City. They hav" been successful and are still in progréss. The water systems of great . oities can be purified and stagnant and of- fensive pools can be eliminated. It has been discovered that the utiliza- tion of a well-known solution will ex- terminate the typhold fever germs in drinking water, destroy = the malaria fever germs found in stagnant pools and marshy places, as well as purify and clarify the water supplies of the cities. This wonderful solution also destroys mosquitoes, and as it can be prepared at practically no cost these insects can be exterminated absolutely and life at the seashore and in the mounteins made more pleasant. It is the Bordeaux mixture, a prepa- ration of copper sulphate, lime and water, Only experts should use this solution for drinking water, as fatal results might follow attempts of inexperienced persons to purify water and destroy fever ger But, owing to the cheap- ness the preparation, the most in- experienced person. can use it in de- stroying mosquitoes and fever germs agnant pools and in remowing the or frog spittle, found upon in use for many gen- yraying fruit trees to kill ts and diseases and the wonderful | Nebraska. | on of its utility was but recent- SIOUX CITY, Iowa, April 10.—A | oy the Agricultural De-| Great Northern enger train ar- an L'x!mrxr‘nfnld‘\:w“nd’r)\'vd in Sioux City to-night from ateroress and othed O'Neill, Nebr., having been stalled in xpert dis-] 2 cut near McLane since Friday night. | Sovered Rlsc nce of thed Live engines were nt to help “get E ! the train out.

This was too much for the crowd on | the train, and in a minute the car§ were almost empty. . Many of the pleasure-seekers left the coaches through the windows in their eager- | ness to fly to the rescue of their com- patriots. The patrol wagen was sur- rounded by a dense crowd of pushing, shouting, fighting humanity. The offi- cers fought well, but when it was all over three of their captives had slipped through their hands. The fourth was lying in the bottom of the wagon, ump- | conscious, with his head badly battered.

NEW YORK, April 10.—The World has the following from Tientsin: It is reported from Mukden that two trains containing a large number of Russians who were wounded in an engagement on the Yalu River have passed through there on the way to Harbin. PARIS, April 10.—The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Petit Parisienne czbles an interview he had with Ad- miral Rojestvensky, chief of the gen- | eral staff of the navy, in the course of which the admiral admitted that he had been offered and had accepted the command of the Baltic squadron, adding that he was not certain whether the squadron would go to the Far East. The Emperor, the ad- miral said, desired the squadron to be ready to sail by July 15 next, but this was considered too hasty a movement in official circles, where it was affirmed that on the departure of the squadron a certain complication might arise in Europe. ““Moreover, there will not be work for | seamen in the Far East in September, or then,” said the admiral “the Ja anese will have conveyed to Korea sufficient cannon, ammunition and pro- visions to enable them to carry on a campaign for many months. The Jap- anese will not hesitate to spend enor- mous sums for apparently inadequate results and this proves that they are sure they can renew their supplies and ammunition and that they have friends who will furnish all they need.” Questioned concerning the Japanese many little differences among the pas- | tactics, the admiral said: “Vice Admiral Togo is quite right to remain faithful to his plan, although the appearances are against him. We know from a sure source that he is cer- tain he can repair his vessels and renew his supplies, even of heavy artillery, if needful. Admiral Rojestvensky expressed re- gret that Russia did not take the in- itiative in attacking, even in sacrific- ing her fleet, if thereby she crippled the Japanese navy. ————————— PAINTERS’ UNION REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE SUSPENSION <= Local union No. 509, Brotherhood of Painters, Paperhangers and Deco- rators of America, that has been in- volved in the Brundage-Russell elec- tion, decided last night to take an ap- peal from the decision of Third.Vice President J. C. Skemp, who decided in favor of the Brundage wing. By the decision this union was suspended for insubordination, but has refused consider itself so suspended until a final decision is handed down from the attention of the United States Govern- ment with a. view of mitigating the sentence or of dismissing the indict- ment. - ing travelers last evening regretted that he had made it. It was productive of convincing argumentiin support of the efforts now being made to unite all the commercial organizations of the State in a plan to promote the interests of California as a whole and not by sectional projects, that too frequently conflict with each other and bring in- jury to the State. In fact, all on boaxd the train as they neared Francisco and hurriedly. reviewed the |’ interesting experiences of their trip, were alike in their ju ent that the Promotion Committe achieved great results in paving the way for united action between Northern and Southern California.

John Jacob and Russians Will Re- tire From the Yalu River. ST. PETERSBURG, April 10.—The | generally exvected attack on Port Ar- thur did not occur last night, ‘although |a telegram received from Grand Duke |'Cyril reponts that the enemy's ships were sighted on the horizon. It is pre- sumed that the Japanese were warned of the extra precautions which had been taken to guard against a surprise. There was no BEaster merry-making at the front. By special dispensation the soldierg and sailors there were re- lieved of all religious observances on account of the necessities of the mili- tary situation. Vice Admiral Makar- off's torpedo flotilla patrolled the open sea, while the warships, with full steam up, remained outside Port Ar- thur. Elsewhere throughout the thea- ter of war all is reported quiet. A military official explained to-day why General Kuropatkin’s plan of campaign does not contemplate a heavy resistance of the Japanese ad- vance at the Yalu, saying: -*“Either defeat or victory in a battle there would be-disadvantageous to ds. 1f we lost we would have to fall back through a difficult country. If we won —and I say to you that Russian strat- egy is based on the idea of victory and not defeat—success would be fruitless. We could not follow it up without ex- posing the army to too great risks. On account of the Japanese control of the sea, if we pursued the enemy into the peninsula of Korea we would open both | flanks to a possible attack from the rear. No, the Japanese must come on to a point in the interfor which, with this end in view, has been selecteds where we can follow up a crushing de- feat to the bitter end, with blow after blow, and seal the fate of the cam- paign. “Our plans on sea and land will con- verge at a time next summer when Vice Admiral Makaroff’s fleet will be re- lieved by the arrival of reinforcements. | Then, if successful on land, we can clear the sea of the enemy, cut his communications and the Japanese in Korea d Manchuria will be at our mercy. “The world must not be impatient. The prelude to this war is not yet fin- ished.” It is understood that, as a result of General Kuropatkin’s visit to New- chwang, reinforcements of 100,000 men will be sent forward from Liaoyang. The army organ announces the ap- pointment of Major General Prince Or- beliani, a Circassian nobleman, to the command of the Caucasian cavalry brigade, newly raised for service in the Far East. FRCRSRE, SP eh HARMONY IN NEW YORK. Delegates Practically -Agreed Upon Officers of State Convention. NEW YORK, April 10.—Prominent -Republicans from all parts of the State are in the city in anticipation of the meeting on Tuesday of the New York State Republican Convention, which is to select delegates at large and alter- nates at large to the National Repub- lican Convention and electors at large to be voted Yor in the election in No- vember. The work of the convention ‘was practically agreed upon at a con- ference of the leaders to-night. - Senator Chauncey Depew will be tem- ‘porary chairman and Representative Payne the permanent chairman of the convention, and the delegates at large probably will be Senators Platt and G;vmor Odell and Former George Dunne, chairman of the Republican State Committee. ! It is a foregone conclusion that Gov- ernor Odell will be elected to the chair- manship of the State committee. There to the convention, that from Seneca Easter Greetings From Men at the Front. ST. PETERSBURG, April 10.—This city was to-day en fete and was given up to'Easter rejoicing. The long Rus- sian feasts, which began after midnight and continued almost to daylight, were scarcely ended before the round nl‘ Easter visits commenced. It is the | duty of every Russian at Easter to call upon all his friends and to eat and drink with them. Open house was kept everywhere and the latchstring was out for all. Theoretically, the beggar of the streets enters at will the dining-room of the noble helps him- self to the good things of the table. This. however, is no longer the case in the metropolis and the larger towns of | the empire, but it is still literally true in the villages and rural communities, | where no one is refused admittance. So onerous have official and private Easter visits become that the .Red Cross Society this year evolved an in- genious means of relief angd to benefit its tregsury, by which a dubscription of $50 secures the publication of the donor’'s’ name in the Official Messen- ger, carrying with it immunity from officlal calls. Many eagerly took ad vantage of the scheme. The masses spent the day in merry- making; the sun shone brightly and the sidewalks were thronged with promenaders. The Emperor’s sailors and soldiers in the Far East telegraphed Easter greet- ings to their friends at home, through the Novoe Vremya, which published in four columns of small type telegrams from Port Arthur, Viadivostok, Dalny, Mukden, Harbin and other places, with the signatures to the dispatches. The messages breathe the deepest,loye of country and afford striking dvidence of the religious bond uniting Russians. The messages from Port Arthur rep- resent every warship of importance, except the flagship Askold, and the cruiser Pallada. The telegrams are signed by the captains and other offi- cers. The telegrams from Vladivostok were sent by the officers of the cruis- ers Rurik and Bogatyr. el N John GRATEFUL TO THE RUSSIANS. Japan Appreciates High Honor Paid a Dead Naval Hero. TOKIO, April 10.—The body of the Japanese officer which was found and buried at Port Arthur by the Russians was \mque:flonn}xly that of Command- er Hirose, who was killed on March 27 in the second attémpt to “bottle” Port Arthur. The description of the uniform tallies with that worn by an officer of Hirose’s rank and the fact that the head was missing is a further confirmation of the belief that the body was that of the Japanese com- mander. The Japanese Government deeply appreciates the action of the Russians in giving the remains a itary fu- neral and the officers of the naval staff have requested the press to express to the world their appreciation. The fragments of Hirose's body which were brought here on April § will be given a public funeral on April 13. The Shinto ceremonial will be per- formed at the funeral. Hircse is the greatest hero of the war. After hostilities are over it is planned to secure the body interred at Port Arthur and bring it to Japan. ——— KUROPATKIN'S BIG ARMY. ‘Will Have Five Hundred Thousand Men in the Field.
