STOCK MANIPULATIONs.


BOSTON. Nov. 23.-The Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy railroad officials will not take
action concerning the swindling of invest
ors in their securities by the circulation of
bogus dispatches relating to the declaration
of the quarterly dividend on Wednesday
last. This is in substance the result of an
interview to-day with T. s. Rowland, sec
retary of the company. by a representative
of the Associated Press. Mr.. Howland
spoke authoritatively for President Per-
kins when he said he did not see how the
company was called upon to concern itself
in the investigation Of stock -jobbing
schemes engineered by spectators. He
said ample warning had been given when
board of directors would make known the
amount of the dividend from the floor of
the Stock Exchange Immediately after ad-
iournment.
When asked If he had under considera-
ton any plan to prevent swindlfng opera
tions in the future he said none, excepting
that already adopted, the declaration OF

members of the board of directors were not

Captured Last Wednesday by Count
Oyama's Forces After Eighteen
Hours Desperate Fighting.
JAPAN WARRING In EARNEST
THIRD ARMY ROUND FOR THE RICH
YANG TsE KIANG DISTRICT.
English People TicI<Ied Over the Re-
the Japanese Authorities.

CHE Foo. Nov. A-Dispatches have been
received here stating that the japanese
captured Port Arthur on Wednesday last
after eighteen hours fighting.
The second Japanese army, under the
command of Field Marshal Count Oyau,a,
Minister of War, consisted of about thirty
thousand men, and when this force arrived
off the Regents Sword promontory. it was
divided into two detachments, one of which.
aided by part of the Japanese fleet, oper-
ated against Talienwan, while the other di-
rected it's movements against Kin-Chow, on
the western side of the promontory, some
miles north of Port Arthur. Talienwan and
Kin-Chow were both captured, after which
the army again combined and the march on
Port Arthur was commenced. Several en-
gagements of minor Importance took place
along the route. but according to the re-
ports, the Japaneses were invariably sue
cessful The roads leading northward from
Port Arthur were supposed TO have been
mined by the Chinese and the Japanese
commander therefore declined to take the
risk of marching his troops along them.
Consequently, they were compelled to cut
roads through the forest to allow of the
trains. etc. The march was thus necessarily
slow.
Dispatches received a few days ago
stated that the Japanese were close TO the
city and had attacked the Chinese outposts,
driving them back to their entrenchments
1t was also said that the japanese attacked
the entrenchments three tines, but were re-
pulsed each time. 1t is evident that later at
acks must have been made and that the
outposts were compelled to fall back upon
Port Arthur. Several times the town is re-
prted to have been captured, but later dis
patches have shown that these reports
were inaccurate and that the Japanese were
conducting their operations against the
place with great carefulness and that they
intended. when the real attack was made,
that ii should be successful.

Nathan Gon Not a Candidate.

WHEELING, W. Va, Nov. BIN a
private letter TO a friend in the city, Judge
Nathan Goff, of the United States Court of
Appeals. states emphatically that he is
not a candidate for United States Senator
to succeed Mr.. Camden, and that he has no
intention of resgning his position on the
bench. This effectually disposes of the
story that Judge Goff will contest the claim
of ex-Secretary of War s. Il. Elkins on the
senatorship. Interviews with a majority
of the Republican members-elect to the
Legislature indicate that Mr. Elkins will
receive the caucus nomination by a prac-
tically unanimous vote.
