Moneybz~1- YORK, June 19.—The official NANSHAN HILL ~ HERO ADDS 0 | HIS LAURELS |He, and Not Nodzu, ! the Commander at Telissu. N Sends Graphic Report of His Army’s ~ Triumph. TOKIO, June 19.—General Oku, the victor of the battle of Nanshan Hill on May 26, fought and won the battle of Telissu (Vafangow, according to the Russian designation) on June 15. There is a strong similarity betaveen the two fights. At Telissu the Japan- ese had to drive the Russians from two hille, while at Nanshan the enemy oc- cupied but one hill. The Russian posi- tion at Telissu was superior to that of the Japanese and equalized the Japan- ese advantage in numbers. The Rus- eian position extended from east to| west and crossed the narrow valley | through which run the Fachou River and the railroad. { From their positions on the right and left, in the hills which flank this val- ley, General Oku drove the Ru: down into the valley. The Japanese general carried first the enemy’s right and then his left. The fight at the | left of his line was the most desperate of the day. The Russians held this { position with desperate determination and fled only when they were almost completely enveloped. The field had been disputed all day and when the Japanese reached it 600 of the enemy’s ead were found there. | GENERAL OKU'S ADVANCE. neral Oku started from a line marked by Pulandien and the Tassa River on June 1 His right column moved along the Ta River, his main column along the ra ad and his left column by a road leading through Wuchiatun, Suchuan n and Tahoai. started from a road leading through » and the small bodies of Rus- opposing this advance were d away. The left column reach- Nachialing on June 14 and the main middle column and the right col- umn, keeping in touch with each other, reached a line between Chiaochiatun and Tapingkou, seven and a half miles ith of Telissu, the same day. he Russian forces then held a line | ! between Tafangshen and Lungwang- | tiao. The entire Japanese line ad- vanced and at 3 o'clock in the after- | noon the Japanese artillery opened fire. The Russians had ninety-eight guns | and they replied with spirit until dark- ness put an end to the artillery duel. During the night of the 14th the Japanese right column seized a hill be- tween Tsongchiotun and Wengchiatun, i the middle column occupied a hill west of Tapingkou. BATTLE IN THE FOG. When dawn of the 15th | field of battle was obscured by fog, but | the artillery ovened early. A portion | of the Japanese middle column ad- vanced' to the north side of a bend in the Fuchu River. Here these men were fire, but | was greatly exposed to the enemy infantry and artiller a force of i forward and relieved them. At| g clock this relieving force seized | a point to the west of Wengchiatun, | and in peration with the middle column drove the Russians from Ta- fangshen. The Russian batteries pos ed at Lungtanshan and Lungwangtiao poured a heavy fire into these forces, | but in soite of this shelling the middie column and the men who were sent for- ward to relieve the force at the bend in the Fuchu River climbed the heights ahead of ti and quickly mastered the situation. In the meantime the Japanese right was suffering. The Russian left had been reinforced until their numbers were greater than the opposing Japa- nese. General Oku was twice forced to order un infantry reserves. The Rus- sians made a series of desperate coun- | ter attacks, and when the situgtion was | most -eritical Japanese cavalry swung { around the Russian left and struck the enemy on the flank. At this time ad- ditional Russian reinforcements had ar- rived, and the Russians held their po- sition with dogged determination until their front and both flanks were under fire. Then they broke and fled. The | Japanese cavalry pursued the enemy for a short time, but the roughness of | the country made it necessary soon to | abandon the pursuit. | RUSSIANS ARE AMBUSHED. | The Jananese left siicceeded in am- ! bushing 900 Russian infantrymen who were discovered retiring toward Wuch- jatun. They sent two companies of in- fantry and one battery of artillery to a hill east of Hongchiatun, and the Russians were completely entrapped. Many of the enemy at this point were killed or wounded. “In his report General Oku says the Russians began the fight with twenty- five battalions of infantry, seventeen squadrons of cavalry and ninety-eight guns. were reinforced several times, but the number of reinforce- ments is not known. The Russian casualties are not known with exact- itude. The Japanese right found and buried 600 of the enemy’s dead and the other columns had not reported. Seven Russian officers and 300 men were | taken prisoners. | The Japanese casudlties reported up to noon of June 17 aggregated about 900 men, including eight officers killed and fourteen officers wounded. General Oku concludes his report odestly and loyally with these words: “The success in carrying superior positions and routing the enemy was due to the influence of the reigning | Emperor.” co ‘m | (A dispatch from :..

TOKIO, June 19.—The remarka- ble rald of the Russian Vladivo- stok squadron evidently is over: The squadron disappeared yesterday off Cape Henashi, steering to the north, and has not been reported since. It is assumed to be returning to Vladivostok. Whether or not a portion of Vice Admiral Kamimura's squadron is awaiting the Russians off Vladivostok is a carefully guarded secret. Assum- ing that Vice Admiral Kamimura dis- patched some of his vessels to Vladi- vostok when he learned that the Rus- sian squadron was off Iki Island, these ships would have had ample time to arrive there ahead of the Russians and be ready to give battle. The weather has been foggy, and this con- dition has been against the Japanese. 1t is reported that the raiding Rus- sians captured a British steamship laden with coal, bound southward from the Island of Yezo, and sent her to Vliadivostok with a prize crew, but the report is not confirmed by.the Japanese Navy Department. The trasports Sado, Hitashi and Id- the only ones overhauled by zumi we he {ans. Japan had thirteen -ansports in and near the strait of Korea on the morning the Sado and the Hitashi were caught, and she was fortunate that only the three ships mentioned were overtaken by the ene- my. HITASHI REFUSES TO STOP. It is impossible to obtain complete facts concerning the sinking of the Hitashi. She evidently failed to stop when signaled to do so by a Russian vessel. The claim is made that Cap- atin_Campbell, the English master of the Hitashi, refused to stop and plan- ned to ram the Russian, but this is de- nied. It is said that the Japanese offi- cers on board the Hitashi declined to surrender and required Captain Camp- bell to keep his ship going. The asser- tion that the Russians fired upon the lifeboats in which men were escaping from the Japanese transport has not | been fully substantiated. The raid of the Vladivostok squadron has brought an unwarranted amount | of criticism upon Vice Admiral Kami- mura from the Japanese, and his fail- ure to catch the Russians in the fog off Gensan, Korea, when the Japanese port Kinshiu was sunk on Aprii | with a loss of about 200 men, has | been recalled. Some officials even de- clare that if Vice Admiral Kamimura falls to catch the Russian vessels be- they reach Vladivostok he should either resign from the Navy or commit | suicide. The popular demand for his replacement Is growing, but the public | is without information as to the nature of his orders or the plans of the naval campaizn, and fails to make allowance for the limitations of conditions. KAMIMURA OUT OF LUCK. Vice Admiral Kamimura’'s squadron was lying off Tsu Island when the raiding Russians reached Okino Island. Kamimura immediately started in pur- suit of the enemy, but rains obscured | the sea, and an electrical storm inter- | fered with his system of wireless tele- graply. Vice Admiral Kamimura is a splendid officer, and the only possible indictment against him is one of lack of good luck. The Japanese generally magnify the importance of this Russian raid, which has no material effect upon the war. It was a desperate venture, and it is| believed here to have succeeded oaly | through blind luck. | The Yawata and the Ansei, two sail- ing ships, were sunk by the Russians on Thursday between Ko Island and | Okushiri_Island, off the west coast of Yezo and north of the Tsugaru Strait. Thirty-seven survivors reached Esashi | on Thursday afternoon. This makes a total of five Japanese ships sunk or destroyed by the Russian raiders. KAMIMURA'S PURSUIT. Storm Aids Russian Cruisers in Elud- ing Japanese Squadron. Cable to The Call and New York Copyright, Epecial Herald Herald Publishing 'Company. TOKIO, June 19.—The Russian cruis- i ers remained in the strait until one o'clock on the afternoon of June 15. Admiral Kamimura’'s fleet followed in touch with them. The chase was con- tinued and the Japanese vessels were slowly overhauling the enemy when a heavy rainstorm came on and the Rus- sians changed their course immediately, thus folMTfig pursuit. They next ap- peared off Hokkaido and again charged their course to the southward until they were off Henassisaki. They then evidently steered north when unob- served. Although it was' known that the Russians were off Licl Island, Admiral Kamimura, who was out of touch with his base, kept searching for them in the direction of Vladivostok and was fight were described as rching to the northward and it was said that the Russians had fortv-two battalions engaged{ against forty-four Japanese ‘battalions, and that the Japanese had great superiority in artillery, having more than 200 guns. Another report, frora Liaoyang, also dated June 18, said the Russians had sixty guns in action at Telissu, op- posed to 100 Japanese guns. B — ‘Wigg—Are the Bjoneses very socia- ble people?

The Russians’ destination is probably some point whence they can communi- cate with Vladivostok. The Russians’ cruisers appeared pff Henassisaki yesterday. stearing south and the Korean Straits are now con- sidered to be free from danger and navigation was resumed yesterday. The cruisers are evidently trapped. RPN T AMERICAN BARK SEARCHED.

MUKDEN, June 19.—A raiding party of Cossacks just returned from two months in Korea, brings verbal news regarding the Japanese positions, ac- cording to which the Japanese forces on the Yalu River have become de- cidedly weak, owing to the confidence of the Japanese commanders based on the rdsults of the first fight. The Cossacks say that the inhabi- Russians and sold them food and for- age readily and that they preferred the Russian coin to the Chinese notes. Many Kdreans, armed and led by Jap- anese officers, constitute the rear guard of the Japanese army. The raiding party came into contact with the Koreans frequently and some- times there were several skirmishes daily. and one battle lasted all day long, as the result of which, the Korean said, the Japanese lost fifty killed. The Cossacks were eventually repulsed by a superior force of Japanese cavalry, which was sent out to cut them off at the Yalu and which outmarched and outmaneuvered them. The raiders crossed safely. They destroyed two important bridges, cut the telegraph | wires wherever they could and seri- ously interrupted communication north, | south and west of Anju. The crops in Korea, the Cossacks say, are in splendid condition and the country is prosperous owing to the large circulation of Russian money. The Koreans complain much of the cruelty of the Japanese army. Manchurian Chinese report that a number of Chinese runners were killed while trying to pass the Japanese lines, and that all the letters which they car- ried fell into the hands of the Japanese. MRS U PINGYANG IS THREATENED. Strong Force of Russian Cavalry Ad- vancing Upon the Town. Special Cable to The Call and New York Herald. Copyright, 1904, by the New York Herald Publishing Company. SEOUL, June 19.—It is reported from Pingyang that a strong force of mounted Russians is approaching the Yalu headquarters, its objective being Pingyang. Successful Russian raids continue along the Korean coast. The total absence during the last week of authentic news from Gensan, either by wire or runner, indicates the strictness of Japanese censorship, which is possibly due to the gravity of the situation there. PGS Japanese Honor Their Dead.

Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, June 19.—Much in- ternational importance now surrounds the brief speech of Commander Isam Takeshita, naval attache of the Japan- ese legation, at the sixth annuai dinner Sherry’s on June 1, whea Prince Pu Lun of China was the guest. Count Cassini, the Russian Embassador, has called this speech to the attention of Secretary Hay. He has requested that | the attention of M. Takahira, the Japandse Minister, be called to the act | ot his subordinate. The Embassador pointed out to Sec- retary Hay that Prince Pu Lun, a young and keen observer, hearing the tumultuous applause at the conclusion of this speech, would judge that, de- spite the declared neutrality of the United States, this nation was enthu- siastically friendly to Japan. This, he upon the preservation of Chinese neu- trality. Count Cassini told Secretary Hay that if a member of the Russian em- bassy, similarly placed, had so far ex- ceeded his liberties as a diplomat he would have him sent out of the country within twengy-four hours. The Embas- sador further declared the dinner could not be @eemed a private affair. The presence of so many representatives of tne American and Chinese governments rendered it impossible to be divested of officlal character. : Secretary Hay promised to give the matter due and immediate considera- tion. REBL JAPANESE AS “APOSTLES.” Brown *Prophets Busy Among the Mongols of Altai. BIJESK, Government of Tomsk, Russia, June 19.—The agitation among the Mongols inhabiting the Altai re- gion is increasing over the appear- ance of the god Airol, who they be- lieve will deliver them from the for- eign yoke and create an independent kingdom. The Mongols are gathering in thousands in answer to the sum- mons of the men who are proclaiming themselves to be the apostles of the god. These “apostles” warn the Mon- gols to abstain from wearing white or red clothing, these being the Russian national colors, and to wear only blue and yellow, the national colors of Japan; to worship the sun and moon, which are the gods of Japan, and e$pe- clally the over-god Burhan, who is the only true god of the gods. The “apostles” have been discovered to be Japanese, who passed the winter in caves in the mountain fastnesses, carefully concealing their presence in the country. ——— Duke of Abruzzi Goes to Front.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. PHILADELPHIA, June 19.—On the | historic spot at Valley Forge, where ‘Washington and his “gallant boys of | 76" suffered in order that the L‘n“ed: States might become a nation, Presi- dent Roosevelt to-day delivered a mno-| table address. This was ‘“evacuation | day,” and the anniversary was cele-| | brated appropriately in the, little edi-| { fice that has been erected on what is to | be the spot of the Washington Memo- | I!'I..’vll Church. It was to add his sympa- thy and encouragement to the project | of marking the spot by a suitable me- | | morial that President Roosevelt made his address. For the President the day was a busy | one.. He spent the morning in com- | pany with Attorney General Knox, Mrs. Roosevelt and Mrs. Knox in driv- ing over the ground made historic by | Washington and ‘his men. They visited the headquarters of Washington, the President insisting on paying the small | fee which all visitors are charged for | viewing the place. The camp ground and battlefield were examined carefully. A visit also | was paid to the first house in this coun- try occupied by Audubon, the natural- ist. | From Valley Forge the President and | party returned directly to Attorney General Knox’s home. The night was passed without note- worthy incident at Valley Forge farm. The President and party will leave the | farm to-morrow morning, taking their | special train for Washington. | Several hundred persons had assem- bled at the Washington Memorial Chapel, where President Roosevelt spoke this afternoon, but only a part of them could gain entrance, as its ca- pacity is very limited. The President said in part: It is a noteworthy thing that this State of Pennsylvania should have within Its borders the place which marks the two turning points in our history—Gettysburg, which saw the | hich tide of the rebellion, and Valley Forge. which saw the getting beyond the dange point of the Revolution. There have been two great crises in our history, two crises. where failure meant the | absolute breakinz asunder of the nation, one the Revolutionary war, one the Civil war. « e e There have been other crises than that which culminated In the great war for independence and the great Civil war: there have been creat statesmen and great men at other periods of our national history, but there has never been another deed vital to | the welfare of the nation save the two, the | deeds of those who founded and the deeds of those who saved the republic. There never has been another man whose life has been yital to the republic save Washington and | Lincoln. * * * It is a good thing of these | landmarks of our history—Gettysburg and Valley Forge—one should commemorate a i gle tremendous effort and the other what need on the whole much more commonly and what I think is on the whole rather more difficult to do, long sustained effort.

In these days there are hundreds of factories kept busy during a good part It was not ever thus. In the early part of the ast century there were fewer factories in this country than now and many things were made by hand that to-day are the work of machinery. This was especially true of the braid for straw hats. Rye straw was commonly used, although wheat was also in demand. But the rye straw had longer stems and was more easily handled. In driving along the country roads, in Massachusetts particularly, late in the summer, onme would see great bundles of the straw hanging on the fence to dry. When the sun and the wind had done their share of the work, it was placed in casks where sulphur was burned until it was bleached to a pale yellow. Then it was split into narrow widths suitable for braiding.— New York Commercial. — e——— The primeval man had just discov- ered that by rubbing two sticks to- gether he could produce fire. “I foresee,” he said, with the airy confidence inseparable from the true in- | ventor, “‘that this will be the death of the raw food fad.” Which shows that our remote an- cestors, while wise in their day and generation, could not make an accurate forecast of the future.—Chicago Tri- bune.
