OO2 Accused of having attempted to Kell his wife, the Rev. Dr. George Buckle, | pastor of the Greystone Presbyterian Church at Bllzabeth, N. J., fled from there yesterday and ts supposed to bo in hiding in this city. Blder B. B. Smith, of the church, recelved a letter from him to-day tnclosing deeds to $8,000 worth of property and a check for $1% payable to Mrs. Buckle, The letter was written at Mills Hotel No. 1, but no trace of Dr. Buckle could be found there to-day, and if he lodged there Inst night !t was under an as- sumed name. 'Two Complaints Drawn. Two complaints had been drawn up tm the office of Justice of the Peace Mahon, of Elizabeth, against Dr. Buckle, One charged abandonment, the jother assault with intent to kill. Mrs. Buckle has decided to withdraw the ;abandonment charge, in view of the {weturn of the deeds, which were taken from the house yesterday, and the | receipt of the check, dnd to delay press- |img the assault charge. The elders of |the ohurch have held @ meeting, and ‘gteps have been taken to depose Dr. Buckle from his pastdrate, which he has held for fourteen years. ‘ No such sensation has agitated Dliza- jbeth and the surrounding section of |New Jersey for years.

He May Seek to Delay a Gen- eral Land Engagement Until These Reinforcements Have Reached the Front. LONDON, April 2L—A report which comes here from Paris says that Gen. Kuropatkin is trying to delay any de- Gisive land battle, hoping for the ar- rival of 100,000 additional troops. ‘These troops are to reinforce the armies in Manchuria and along the If the Japanese have succeeded in the flank movement on Port Arthur, @s reported, the forward march will be accompanied by the most formidable bombardment Admiral Togo has yet made on the city, While the Japanese are known to be strengthening every position and pre- paring to move forward tu Port Arthur, the position of the Russians, according to the most reliable despatches re- ceived here, is equally strong. Russian Strongh The Russians have three strongholds in the Mukden district which, accort- ing to St. Petersburg, are invulnerable, They have the Port Arthur Rafiroad guarded from Port Arthur north to Mukden, and they are intrenched at Nowchwang In great numbers. Aside from these strongholds, the Russians have the north side of the | Yalu River, and the Japanese will have great difoulty in making progress into Manchuria, even should they succeed in crossing the river from Corea. All reports received here agree that the great land armtes are now almost together and that the decisive blow may be expected at any time. Both sides are being reinforced constantly, and a land battle will be most serious to the losing side, New Money ST.

The corres- pondemt of the Avvociated Press is authoritatively informed that the daily expenses are averaging $760,000, and It js estimated that a year's expendi- ture for the war will totas $25,000,000. To meet this there existed a free bal- ance of $50,000,008, which was increased to $15,000,000 by reductions of the or- dinary budgets, leaving ostensibly $135, 900,000 to be found.
