ST. PETERSBURG, July 17. Lieu- | | tenant Genegal Sakharoff, in view of | the Japanese official version of the fight at Kaichou, has sent in another report, reiterating that only one Rus- sian battalion entered into a serious conflict with the Japanese, who had | four divisions. He denies that it was' a Japanese victory, the Russians hav- ing previously determined to withdraw their rear guard detachments to other positions. Under date of July 16 General Sakharoff reports that the chasseurs | are driving back the Japanese advance posts southwest of Siakholan and east The Japanese, the general says, have | roccupied Kochinha. They are still | fortifying the passes between Sonshui | and Motien. | The Japanese near Liaovang have | evacuated Sekeran and Yanlikin. The country from Siaossyria up to Siu Pass | is free from Japanese, but the pass itself is occupied by a detachment of the Japanese advance guard. General Sakharoff reports several minor encounters, with practically no | casualties. IN_ COLLISION Street Cars Crowded With Passengers Meet at Cross- ing in Santa Monica | —— | LOS ANGELES, July 17.—Three cars of the Los Angeles Pacific railway, all crowded with passengers, collided at Santa Monica early this evening and | were badly demolished. M. R. Fogel, | a youth of fifteen years, | who was | seated on the front platform of one of | the cars, was probably fatally injured | and a number of persons were slightly | hurt. The wreck occurred at the corner of | Oregon avenue and Third street. Car | No. 186 of the Hollywcod line was run- ning west on Oregon avenue at a high rate of speed. As it approached Third | street cars Nos. 196 and 54, coupled to- | gether, were crossing the tracks, going | north. Before the motorman of the | westbound car could reverse brakes his | coach crashed violently into the two throwing them from the rails in different directions and smash- ing glass and fixtures. Both ends of the Hollywood car were fearfully wrecked and the front wheels and fenders of the other cars were torn | completely from the axles. | Young Fogel, who is a son of R.| Fogel of Santa Monica, a mining man, occupied a seat on the rear northbound car, on the front platform. When the | cars clashed Fogel was thrown from his seat against the fender. The iron bar, which was extended across the side of the car, broke and struck him just over the left eye, causing concus- sion of the brain. He was taken to the California Hospital, but it is not | expected that he will recover. e — SOLOMON MAY BECOME A RIVAL TO NOME Railroad Gives New Town an Import- ance That Is Attracting Many Settlers. TACOMA, Wash., July 17.—Nome ad- vices say that the town of Solomon bids fair soon to rival Nome in im- portance. Business is rushing there, following the completion of the Coun- cil City and Solomon Railroad. The town has the benefit of express, tele- graph and telephone systems, besides a hospital and other enferprises. A party of Nome and St. Michael.people have chartered a small steamer:to con- vey them up the Yukon and Koyokuk rivers on the strength of statements made by George Duncan-‘and C. G. Griggs that they have discovered pay gold on Midas Creek in the Koyokuk country. They have sold their inter- ests in the Midas Creek claims and will Nome Federal officials are reported interested. ——————————— .

ST. PETERSBURG, July 17.—Ex perts whq recently were inclined to ment of affairs in the Far East declare; as-the situation develops, that his strat- egy has proved so far beyond re- proach. He has successfully tided over a pressing danger—how pressing only those in close touch with the Far | East realize, His apparent mistake, like the prolonged resistance offered by Lieutenant General Zassulitch on the Yalu, turn out to have been acts of | the highest military judgment. Gen- eral Kuropatkin then had so few and | such poor troops at Liaoyang that the Japanese would have had an easy task crushing the main force of the Russians, had they been permitted to cross the Yalu without severe punish- ment, and the thousands lost by Zas- sulitch practically saved Liaoyang. General Baron Stakelberg's march, which also was criticized, is now ad- mitted to have been necessary. The rudiments of war are that the army should be in constant touch with the enemy, otherwise it would be impos- sible to know the strength of its op- ponents or to be informed of . their movements. General Stakelberg’s march .was a reconnaissance on.a grand scale, and not only enabled Gen- eral Kuropatkin to ascertain the enemy’s strength and disposition, but materially disturbed the Japanese plans relative to the siege of Port | Arthur, gradually drawing the bulk of | the Japanese army to follow the re- treating column and thus distracting attention from the vulnerable spot be- [ | tween Liaoyang and Mukden. Meanwhile the men at Kuropatkin's headquarters are improving. Fifty thousand of the best troops from European Russia have reached Liao- yang within a month and if the Rus- sian commander-in-chief should choose now to accept a battle he will be able to inflict a heavy blow. All Russia is looking forward with confidence to the issue of the fight. - + SHOT SENT ACROSS SHIP'S BOW Continued From Page 1, Column 6. | outspoken protest, written with traces | of Governmental inspiration, says: “There is a limit to complaisance when neutral commerce under the British flag is molested in a way to which we have been for a century and a half unused.” Special dispatches from: Berlin echo the feeling of irritation that exists in London. BERLIN, July 17.—The National Zeitung this morning, declares,the con- fiscation of the mail sacks aboard the North German Lloyd steamship Prinz | Jé nrich by the Russian volunteer ‘eet steamship Smolensk in the Red Sea on Friday to have been unjustifia- ble and indefensible under interna- tional law, even if the presence of con- traband was reported. Postal matter, the Zeitung declares, should be ex- |empted from confiscation and it is to be expected that the Russian Govern- ment will immediately rectify the er- ror of the Smolensk. : ST. PETERSBURG, July 17.—The news that the Russian voluneeer fleet steamships Smolensk and St. Peters- burg, now cruising in the Red Sea, are stopping ships of neutral nations and searching them for contraband of war, is causing the liveliest interest in all Russia has evidently weighed the question, believes herself to be within her rights and neither fears nor expects international complications. In- deed, some of the powers may have been sounded by Russia on the subject. Nevertheless, foreign opinion is awaited eagerly and more or less criticism is expected. Members of the diplomatic corps are keenly anxious to ascertain the views their Governments will. take .of the passage through the Dardanelles of | these vemsels of the volunteer fleet as merchantmen and their subsequent conversion into ships of war. The gen- eral view in diplomatic circles, even where sentiment is not particularly fa- vorable to Russia. is that while the passage of the Dardanelles might considtred a plece of sharp practice on the part of Russla, it is an accomplished fact and the powers will not now regard it as a violation of the treaty of Paris, but will guard against its repetition. BLKS CATHER N CINCINNAT] Grand Lodge Convention and Annual Reunion of “Best People on Earth” - CINCINNATI, July 17.—The grand lodge convention and the reunion of all Elks will be held here on Tuesday with elaborate programmes for every day this week. To-day, with the ther- mometer registering in the nineties, the local lodge, in detachments at the dif- ferent hotels and depots, was busy es- corting visitors to quarters. Three steamships have been chartered for ex- cursions on the Ohio River. Many en- | tertainments have been arranged for visiting Elks and their ladies. The grand lodge will be opened on Tuesday morning. Several questions of consequence to the order are to be decided. The most interesting contests are for the ~~~itfons of grand ruler and grand secretary. For grand exalted ruler there ara two candidates, William J. O'Brien of Baltimore and Samuel H. Needs of Cleveland. For grand secretary there are several candidates, since George A. Revnolds of Saginaw has announced that he will not be a candidate for re-election. 4 The local arrangements are on the most extensive scale ever known for any occasion here.

Battle Flag in Defiance. e ST. PETERSBURG, July 18, 4:25 a. m.—News from the front, both offi- cial and unofficial, is remarkably scant. General Sakharoff's report, which brings the situation up to July 15, does not mention the occupation of Yinkow, but speaks of the Russians driving out the Japanese from the coast town of Huantichan, between Yinkow and Kaichou. On the other hand, according to General Sakharoff, the advance to Tatchekiao is continu~ ing leisurely. The Japanese advance parties apparently are moving south- eastward to Tatchekiao, while strong parties are intrenching between Fen- shul and Motien passes. A special dispatch from Lioayang,’ the date of which is doubtful, though seemingly about contemporaneous with Lieutenant General Sakhqroff's report, says: “A British gunboat appeared . off Yinkow on July 15. The commander wanted to enter the port to guard the interests of the British residents, in view of the probability that the town may be shortly occupied by the Jap- anese. The gumboat Sivoutch Hoisted a battle flag, went out and requested the British vessel to draw off, which it did. It is e ed the gunboat re- turned later "with two other vessels. All of these put to sea that night. “The enemy is continuing to ad- vance. General Mistchenko's force in warm skirmishes south of Kanchi dis~ covered a big force-of Japanese mov~ ing toward Kanchi and Simautehen. The groups of Japanese to the south- ward remain about stationary.” e MAY RETAIN MANCHURIA. Japan Presents Scheme of Adminis- tration to Peking. TIENTSIN, July 17.—The Chinese Minister at Tokio has telegraphed the Chinese Minister of Foreign Affairs that the Japanese Government has presented a scheme for the administra- tion of Mancharia, the principal clause of which is that the Japanese shall govern the province with the number of Chinese troops now in the country. Information has been received here that unless China suppress the rebel- lion in the province of Kwangsi the French Government has threatened to land troops. The Chinese Government is much perturbed in consequence. A feeling prevails in Tientsin that the Japanese have suffered a terrible reverse at Port Arthur. L S YA ONLY A DRUNKEN BRAWL. Killing of French Soldiers by Japan- ese Not Regarded Seriously. PARIS, July 17.—The Foreign Of- fice as yet has no official details of the clash between French and Japanese soldiers at Shanhaikwan, resulting in the killing of two Frenchmen, but the officials do not regard it seriously. They say it doubtless was a brawl be- tween disorderly soldiers and without international significance. It is ex- pected the officers will punish those connected with the affair. Stad B A A ARMIES ALMOST IN TOUCH. Any Day May Bring Decisive Battle Near Tatchekiao. LONDON, July 18.—The morning papers have dispatches from cor- respondents at General Kuroki's head- quarters, which bring the situation in the Far East up to July 16. All of the writers agree in saying that the situation is unchanged, but that the armies are always in touch, that the Russians are being strongly rein- forced, and that a battle may be ex- pected any day. Slight skirmishes are reported to have taken place July 15. Rl ey Russians Still Hold Newchwang. TIENTSIN, July 17.—The Russian agent here has officially stated that the Japanese have not occupied New- chwang. The Russian officials are, he says, administering there as hereto- fore. e DAVIS FLATTERS BRYAN, . Nominee Characterizes the Nebraskan _ ’as a Strong, Moral Man. NEW YORK, July 17.—Henry G. Dayvis, the Democratic nominee for Vice President of the United States, arrived in this city to-night and is staying at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. He asked to- night what effect Judge Pstker’s gold standdrd telegram had in this pagt of the East and how the work of the con- vention was generally regarded. When told that there were rumors in some sections that Bryan's followers were trol of affairs, he replied: “That cannot be so. I do not believe it.

JAPANESE ACT NYSTERIOUSLY Distinguished Party Arrives From Orient, Giving Divers Explanations of Purpose e Amgng the passengers on the Amer- ica Maru, which reached port yester- day, were several Japanese, who, while they were traveling quietly, at- tracted much attention on board by | their distinguished bearing and their evidently wide knowledge of the af- fairs of the world. They kept to them- selves and said little as to their in- tentions or reasons for their visit to | this country, but it was apparent to | all that they were here on some mis- sion of no small importance. An at- mosphere of secrecy and reserve per- vi\lded the doings and sayings of them all. | To add to the mystery of their | movements, while some of the party | say they are going to England and some to Hartford, it was ascertained | that a portion of their effects go in | bond to New York, while other boxes are destined to The Hague. Their mis- sion 1* believed to lie beyond the United 'States. Whether its real pur- pose is connected with the current war between their country and Russia, the | members of their party were careful | not to disclose. Rumor on ship board | explained the expedition as directed against the Czar's Baltic fleet, now bound for the Orient. This, however, is only a guess. By right of his title Count T. Todo was the most prominent meémber of | the party. The Count is twenty years | of age and he said, in what he called a “six-months-acquired-English,” that he was on his way to England to en- ter Cambridge University. Ccunt Todo was accompanied by his | | secretary, I.Okamoto, and his friend, | H. Sato. These gentlemen both speak | | English fluently and are up-to-date in | every way. to was not in any way inclined to tall At first he would say nothing | [about the doings of the Count or his | own movements. When asked what course of studies the Count would pur- sue at Cambridge he was evasive. They intended to wait until they got there before they decided. How long would he remain in England? He could not | say. He might be there a month and | be might not. Where would he go from England? He could not say. Secretary Okamoto looked on, silent. { As his friend Sato talked he smiled | knowingly, but saild nothing. | The most mysterious of the Japanese | passengers was K. Seto. On the pas- senger list of the steamship he was | plain “Mr. K. Seto,” but he admitted that he was an attache of the engineer corps of the Japanese army. While affable of manner and a good English scholar, he was averse to saying any- thing on the subject of his visit here, but he finally spoke as follows: “I am in company with two workmen | from the Tokio arsenal. We are go- ing to Hartford, Conn., where it is our purpose to investigate the engineering | arts. We will report to Major Koba- | vashi when we arrive there. We ex-| | pect to remain in Hartford about six months. I am a graduate of the me- chanical engineering department of the Tokio University.” When they landed at the dock the Japanese showed much interest in sev- eral large cases which were to be shipped in bond direct to New York. These cases were all apparently very heavy. A suggestion was made that they might contain machinery of some sort, but for what use or purpose they were entered is not known. Members of the party were in con- ference with the Japanese ‘Consul last night. —— MAY BAR AUTOMOBILES.

CHICAGO, July 17.—While the nack-{ ing industry is tled up, Samuel Fox of this city has seized the opportunity | to bring to public notice a device for | the painless slaughtering of animals. | Fox belleves cattle, sheep and hogs should be placed under an anaesthetic before being killed. Fox's device consists of a pen into which the animal is driven and con- | fined in a small space by the working of automatic floor and walls. The head | of the animals protrudes, a rubber cap | is thrown over it and nitrous oxide gas | is turned on at a pressure of twenty pounds to the square inch. In less than a minute, the inventor declares, the animal is overcome. Then it is swung up from a cage and the killing is ef- fected by cutting the throat. | Fox holds that*this method Is as fast as the one mow used. The packers, however, have not Interested them- | selves in the invention, and Fox sug- | gests to the Humane Society that It might be well to compel the adoption of the anaesthetic device by legisla- | tion. | SN A EMPLOYING MANY MEN.

The different managers assert- ed that they were constantly employ- ing more men and were in fair shape. The president of the Central Labor Union, which controls the engineers and other union labor still at work in the plants, asserted to-night that un- less the strike were settled before next Sunday these men would be called out.
