IN the neighborhood OF Port Arthur.
where the second Japanese success is
r.; orted, the winter climate is not so
sever and operations may be main
tanned until much later in the season,
particularly in view of the excellent
base of supplies afforded for the Jap
anese troops in the presence O. their
own war vessels in the EeighborhOod,
which will keep open free lines of COM
munication with Corea and Japanese
supply PORTS. 1t is believed that not
withstanding the taking of Chinese
fort by the Japanese at Port Arthur
the place will be able to hold out for q
long time. 1t is strongly fortified by
land and sea, the plans being drawn by
experienced European engineer officers
and can offer q most formidable resist
ance. The experts in Washington be-
lieve that it cannot be reduced by the
Japanese without the use Of heavy
Siege artillery and so far as reported
the Japanese + not supplied with
this.
Inasmuch as the capture of Port Ar
thur would result in giving Japan con-
troll Of the Gulf of Pc Chi Ii and cut
of the Chinese capital from communi-
cation with the sea, it is believed that
the Japanese will make a most deter
mined effort to capture the fortress.
The belief that they are prepared to
do this. even if it involves a long siege
ami a winter campaign, is borne out
By the fact that the agents of the Jap
anese government in this country have
quietly bought up a vast store OF goat
skins, and have practically cornered
the market. AS these skins are con
monty used in China and Japan as q
necessary part of the soldiers winter
raiment, it is fair to presume that the
Japanese are making ready for a win
ter campaign. Great interest is shown
in Tie news at both Japanese and Chi
llese legations in Washington.

We're ~contending with, and at
once planned for the suppress
sion of that vice. He organized
the Civic Federation consisting of
some OF the best people of the Windy
City. Then he enlisted the aid Of con-
stables and detectives and q concerted
move was made upon the gambling
houses. The effort to raid these es-
Establishments resulted in a number OF
fights, in which clubs and revolvers
were used and several persons were
injured, but at last the reverend gentle
man and his posse succeeded in land
ing several scores of gamblers behind
the bars. He has since secured their
Indictment. While gambling has not
been entirely suppressed, the majority
of the houses have heen closed and
there has been a large decrease in
the profits of those which are running.
Mr.. Ciark's next move will be against
immoral houses. He is at present the
most talked-about man in Chicago and
a large number are advocating his ele'
walton to the mayoralty at the next
election.
