DOUBT. Both Japan and Russia Deny Having | Purchased Submarine Boat. WASHINGTON, June 13.—That Japan bought the Lake submarine boat Protector is denied at the Jap- | anese legation. The legation had nothing to do with it, if the craft was purchased by the Mikado's navy. It | would like to know more about the deal, and the suggestion is made that Japanese ‘are named as purchasers to throw people off the real scent, which would show that Russia bought the vessel. But an equally emphatic de- ial is made at the Russian embassy. The most plausible explanation, and one which is borne out by many in- dications, is that the Protector was purchased for speculation, and there is a strong rumor in Washington that the Holland submarine Fulton, which was tested on May 30 and for several days subsequently by a board of American naval officers, has also been | sold, but not to the United States.

Russians Lieutenant Colonel Hayes Returns From Far East Scene of Strife. Lieutenant Colonel Webb C. Hayes, son of the late President Rutherford B. Hayes, arrived here yesterday from the Orient on the tranSport Logan. Coionel Hayes served in Cuba with the First Ohio Cavalry and later was sec- ond in imand of the Thirty-first United States Infantry, which formed part of the allied forces which were sent to the relief of Peking. He comes fresh from the e of hostilities in the Far East, where he was one of the few Americans who were afforded the of witnessing the maneu- vers of both the Japanese and Russian el Hayes left this country for t early in February, going by way of Victoria with the hope of being join the Japanese army and getting to the front. On reaching Japan he was soon made to appreciate the difficult; that were awaiting all | who had gévmed to accompany the Japanese army and hurried over into Korea, which he reached just after the first Japanese troops landed there. From Seoul he traveled to the conces- sion of the American Mining Company, in Northwestern Korea, and from there made his way to the Yalu River. | Eventually he visited Newchwang. Later Hayes joined Correspondent | Moorhouse on the Chicago News dis- patch hoat Fawan and was aboard that vessel when the Russians captuwred her and took her into Port Arthur. Finlly returning to Peking, Colonel Hayes made another journey to Japan | and saw more of the maneuvers there. The colonel is thoroughly convinced that the Japanese will triumph in the present war. He regards the organiza- tion of the Japanese army as nearly perfect and says that the patriotism of the “little brown men” is the most re- markable in the world. S e L FIGHTING OCCUL> DAILY. | Japanese Claim the Victory in Affairs of Outpos GENERAL KUROKI'S HEAD- QUARTERS, IN THE FIELD, Sun- day, June 12.—According to informa- tion here, the only hostilities mow oc- curring at the front are daily en- ‘counters between outposts, resulting in the loss of a man or two every day. A few Russian prisoners are being brought into Japanese headquarters, but no Japanese are being captured. This is taken to show that the Japan- ese are getting the better of the en- counters. Chinese are giving trouble by cut- ting the telegraph wires nightly; they probably are in the pay of the Russians. The work of keeping General Kuroki's army in supplies of all kinls continues to be performed with excellent resuits and is beyond criticism. The conduct of the Japanese soldiers is irreproach- able and their spir are high. S g - GALLANT COSSACK CHARGE. Cavalry Cuts Its Way Through Sa- perior Force of Japanese.

The Cossacks charged with lances and were met with a volley from the Japanese, which resulted in the dropping of twenty horses, the killing of two Cossacks and nding of six others. The dis- Cossacks scrambled behind their comrades’ saddles. With nearly every horse in the com- mand carrying two men, the Cossacks charged three times, and, though pierced by many wounds, they cut their way out and rejoined the sotnia. T T g RUSSIAN CRUISER ACTIVE. Novik Frequently Ventures Out of the Port Arthur Harbor. CHEFU, June 13.—According to the captain of one of the Japanese cruisers blockading Port Arthur, the Russian cruiser Novik has been out of the har- bor on several occasions pursuing Jan- anese destroyers. The captain thought that the obstructions at the mouth of the harbor prevented the exit of the larger Russian vessels. According to the Japanese, the Rus- sians have three submarine boats, which presumably have been put to- gether at Port Arthur since the begin- ning of the war. i Reserve Division Called Out. ST. PETERSBURG, June 13.—One division of the army reserves of the St. Petersburg district has been called out.

The Japanese army in Manchuria said to be exceedingly short of sup- plies, for which it is wholly dependent upon water transportation to mouth of the Yalu and Takushan. SR T LITTLE ONES IN DANGER FROM EATING SWEETS Chemists Find Coated Cakes Sold Near Schoolhouses Contain Chemicals Injurions to Health. NEW YORK, June 13. — Chemists acting under the direction of the State Department of Agriculture have dis- | covered gross violation of the new pure | | food law in the manufacture of choco- | late covered cakes and candies that are sold from street stands and shops near schoolhouses. Adulterants which are highly injuri ous to the health have been separated from the candy and cakes and sent to the Attorney General. A sealed jar is on exhibition containing eleven grains of paraffin and four small round choco- late covered cakes. The paraffin forms a stick two inches long and, according to the chemists, was taken from the ccating on the four innocent looking cakes. It is a coal tar product which resists the strongest acids. Its effect upon digestive organs is highly injuri- ous. Samples of bakers’' cakes and cheap candies have been found to contain dangerous quantities of paraffin, ana- line dyes and lead poisons. —_————— “VIOLET BRIDE'S” FORMER HUSBAND WEDS AGAIN Hero of Sensational Divorce Suit An- nounces Second Marriage After Starting on Honeymoon.
