HEAVY FIGHTING

 Great Rejoicing.
 YOKOHAMA, Nov 4.-Advlces re- ceived here from the front show that there has been heavy fighting Tn the country just north af Fort 9fthef- The disBatches received are brief and are silent on some important points. It appears that Field Marshal oymia divided his forces While one division landed on the east coast of the penIn- sula north of Talienwan, another d1vi- sion was detached, with orders to effect landing near Kinchow and to proceed thence and join the main body of the army
 This operation was a complete suc- cess. The Japanese encountered no Chinese war ships, and the transports reached Kayenko and disembarked troops, guns. horses and munitions in safety. Kfnchow, which is a walled town. and which was believed to be held by d large garrison, was 1mmedl- ately attacked. The outer detenses were carried by the Japanese after sb few hours fighting The Chinese made little further resistance, and the Jap anese were soon masters of the place.
 Yesterday was the sixty-second an- niversary of the birth of the Mikado. There was great public rejoicing over the victories thus far won by the Ja- panese army.
 Up to the time of sending this dis patch there has been no confirmation of the report of the capture of Port Arthur.
 A dispatch to the Times from Tien- Tsin says: Fen Haun Chen has been burned The Chinese defense of Mouk- den has collapsed. Cold weather has commenced and snow has fallen in Manehuria The Japanese clever1y landed at Pitzwo while making demonstration of the coast of Shan tung and cut the wires, thus pre- venting the news of their position reaching the Chinese. The admiral of the Chinese fleet with fourteen vessels besides torpedoe boats. afterwards started to attack them but was re- called. Prince Kung, the emperor's uncle, has been appointed dictator, thus indicating the further centraliza- ton of authority. The Manchu princes favor reforms, but the Chinese oppose them.

The Young Czar's Manifesto Received
 with Delight.

LONDON, Nov. 3.-The Standards St. Petersburg correspondent says: "The young ezars manifesto is received with open delight, probably unparalleled in the history of Russian official declara- tions. The dignified and almost af- fectionate tone is freely compared with that of the proclamation published upon the accession of Emperor Will liam II.
 Dispatches from Moscow say that oppressive stiffness and mournful ex- pectation overhang that city. Thea ters and other places of amusement, banks and exchanges have been closed and business is at d standstill.
 "1t is expected that the body of Al exander III. will lie in state at Kieff and Moscow before it will be brought to St. Petersburg
 The Standards Vienna correspond. ent says: "Some time ago a deputa- tion pctitioncd the czarowitz to inter vene for the Russian Jews. A member of that deputation tells me that the czarowitz replied: I despise and con. demn the expulsion of your country men, but my hands are tied"

Arkansas Coal Industry.

State Inspector of Mines McMullen has filed his annual report with the governor. The report says the coal fields of Arkansas cover an area of more than 2,000 square miles, embrae- ing the counties of Sebastian, Scott, Crawford, Franklin. Johnson, Logan, Pope and Yell. The number of coal mines in the state is 5l. During the year there were 2,252 men em- ployed in coal mining in Arkansas, and the total output of the mines for the year was 745. .s5s tons The value of this coal at the mines was St,l95, 2TS. The increase over the previous year was T9,6f0 tons, which would have been greater but for six weeks strike among the miners, which oecasioned them a loss of 500, 600 in wages. There were 39 accidents in the mines dur ing the year, people being killed During the year 1s,000 kegs of powder were used, Il tons of coal being mined to each l1eg of powder. The powder cost the miners S45. 600. There was an increase in the production in all the coal counties except Sebastian, which fell off B, 794 tons, which was due to six weeks consumed by the strike. The inspector alleges the mines of the state are all in fair condition, and the min ing laws observed as far as pfaetiea- 1l

ARKANSAS STATE NEWS.
Not So Bad as Reported.

At meeting of the Little Rock board of trade the other day the following report was made by Col ]. H. Mccarthy and J. A. Woodson, a committee ap- pointed to investigate the exaggerated reports concerning the late storm which swept over Little Rock:
 Your committee beg leave to report that after a careful and thorough examination 1t Is our opinion that the storm which prevailed here on October was not in the nature of genuine cyclone but instead a severe wihdstorm, and that the damage reported at the time is very largely ovcrestimated
 We find further that the loss of life is limited to four persons. while few others were slight ly injured, and that the total damage will not exceed S150 GOO, the larger portion Of which Is embraced in the damage to the insane asylum and the penitentary:
 This is the first time in our history that q wndstorm has ever affected us, and We feel that we safe in saying that our city and state are favored sections as regards damage by storms, and we trust the press of the eoun- try will do the justice to publish this resolu- tion in order that we may be set right before the people abroad
 The reports of the storm were sent by telegraph from Little Rock over the entire country, and daily papers in large cities published the matter un- der '.scare" heads, starting off as Wiped out!'' Swept by cyelonet "Death and Destruction!a Little Rock Destroyed!'' until readers of many dailies believed that the capital city of Arkansas was swept from the face of the earth, when in fact there was no more damage than bad fire would cause

"All these langues Nicholas speaks and writes flucntly. He was also thor oughly instructed in constitutional history, law, the administration of the country, finance and political and so- cial economy. The best masters were selected and care was taken that their instructions had not been warped by political views.
 "Iie entered the army at the age of IS years, and was little more than a child as regards his way of looking up- on life at that time. He abhorred the homage of court and official life, and was really happy only when he could frolic in an innocent fashion with his younger fellow-officers, when the elder ones, especially his tutor for whom lie has always entertained the greatest esteem-were out of the way. In this way his character be- came more independent. He became a good officer, and, although anything but a passionate soldier, he is in po- sition to recognize mistakes and to ap- preciate efficiency. He is devoted to duty, and does everything that he un- dertakes thoroughly.
