THE JAPANESE ADVANCE
How It Has Progress
ed So Victoriously.
Reliable Particulars of
Recent Engagements.
At No Point Do the Chinese Seem to
Have Made Stand Worthy
of Soldiers.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-The
steamship Peru arrived tonight from
Yokohama bringing the following ad-
vices to the Associated Press:
Yokohama, Oct. 3O.-General Oya-
mas army left Japan October 18th.
The number of his troops was eStimat-
ed at little more than 10000. They
filed nearly fifty transports and 500
fiat bOttOmed boats accompanied the
fiotilla to facilitate a landing.
October 9th, the east coast of Liau
TIung was reached. A. considerable
part of the force was put ashore at
a point supposed to be some forty
miles north of Port Arthur and little
north of the fortified town of Kin
Chao, or Chin Chui, ON the opposite
coast. The remainder of the army
passed around the extremity of the
peninsula into the gulf of Pechili and
toward a destination not yet positive
ly known to the public in Japan. The
fleet under Admiral Ito moved sim
ultaneously upon the stations at Port
Arthur and TaIien. The purpose was
to hem in all the Chinese garrisons in
the southern part of Liau Tung and
compel their surrender. as well as that
of Admiral Tings squadrons. The
native troops defending these positions
were not believed to exceed 5000 in
number. These facts are telegraphed
from Shanghai.
The scene of the operations is so
remote that no direct intelligence has
been received by the Japanese gov
ernment. The mastery of the strong
nOldS which command one side of the
entrance to the gulf of Pechili will

and the possession and destruction of
the ships sheltered at Port Arthur
will secure her undisputed control of
Chinese waters; but the capture of a
large body of soldiers will be only Il
burden, which would be gladly avoid
ed were it possible.
General Yamagata's has signalized
it's advance into Manchuria by the
seizure of the walled town of Kew
Leen or Chiu Lien. The attack was
so poorly met that the encounter
could scarcely be called a battle.
The crossing of the Yalu river was
completed on the morning of October
25th and was followed by a succession
of skirmishes in which the Japanese
lost seventy killed and wounded.
Kew Leen fell October 26th. The de-
Tending force was estimated various
ly at from 10000 to 10000, all of whom
ran away at the first onset of the as
sailants
"The Japanese casualties were about
twenty killed and eighty wounded.
OF the Chinese 200 are reported killed.
The spoils were of great value, in
Guiding thirty large cannon, thousands
of small arms, abundance of ammu-
milton, 300 tents and quantities of pro-
visions and fodder. The assault was

led by Colonel Sato. The fugatives
are expected to rally at Hong Whong,
fortified city on the road to Mouk
den, and little more than half way
J between that ancient capital and Kew
Leen. There a strong force is under
stood to be gathered. Particulars of
the movements in Manchuria are OBJ
tanned with difficulty, owing to the eX
cessive sensitiveness of the Japanese
authorities to the charges of dissent
mating fale news. which have been
brought against them abroad. Ad-
vices from Tien Tsin announce that
the Chinese have secured from Hong
Kong and Shanghai a bank loan of
ten million taelS, at seven per cent.
With this money several ships of
Ch:li's navy are to be purchased, if
the present intention is carried out.
The CXodHs of foreigners from Pc
lin continues. Tho British minister
peremptorily ordered his countrymen
to leave, and if any aliens remain it
will be without the sanction of their
diplomatic representatives, who do not
undertake to guarantee their safety.
Not the foreigners alone, but the great
numbers of wealthy natives are for
Saking their homes and seeking shell
ter in cities nearer the coast. Even
lien ISln and Che Foo are considered
undesirable places of abode and hun
dreds of families are on their way to
Shanghai. The only European in the
Chinese service who fingers at Pekin
is Sir Robert Hart, chief of the Gus
toms staff, and he, it is said, will
cling to his post to the last extremity.
A severe earthquake occurred in the
northern provinces of the main island
of Japan on October 22d. More than
three hundred persons were killed.
The town of Sakata was almost en-
tirely destroyed.
DEFER TO UNCLE SAM.
London, Nov. 13.-It is stated here
on good authority that the European
powers are not disposed to take any
action in regard to the war between
China and Japan as long as the gov
ernment of the United States is offer
ing mediation.

FASHIONS FLORAL EDICT.

Blossoms and Shades That Have Re-
ceived Approval for This Season.
Dame Fashion rules the floral as
well as the social world, and every
year the edict goes forth as to what
flower shall be the reigning favorite
with the swell set This season, con-
trary to the custom of former years,
no one color is accepted, but several
different shades, with perhaps a lean
ing toward pink, will be in favor.
This matter of fashion in the color
in flowers is governed largely by the
Partisan mOdiSte and milliner. If q
certain color or shade is chosen for
bonnet or dress trimmings the flower
which approaches it the nearest in
shade is sure to be the fashion. An
illustration is found in the rage for
the yellow chrysanthemum two sea-
sons ago. Then everything was yel-
low in decorations and dress effects.
This season the favorite shade worn
in ribbons and other trimmings is
called cerise. AS nothing in the floral
world reaches that. there will be no
decided color the fashion in flowers.
The early fall shows large variety
of lovely flowers, many of them ex-
quisite in shade and some of them
new to the public. Violets will be
the favorite for corsage and hand
bouquets from now until the last of
December.
The new violet, called the Lady
Campbell, is all the rage. 1t is much
lighter in shade than the Marie Lou
Use, and is delicious in perfume. 1t
is harder than any violet yet grown
in this country, and has never had
! the "violet disease 1t is said to be
| raised from shoot Of the old NeapO-
| Titan violet. which was a favorite
| many years ago.
The carnation pink has been grow
| ing in favor for several years as a
| decoration for the table and in room
| garlands, and at present this blossom
holds a high place in the list of cut
| flowers, ranking next to roses and
! orchids. The new varieties this fall
are bright pink, and a snow white
! feathery carnation, much affected by
! the swells for boutonnieres. Many Of
| these pinks are as large as the small
| chrysanthemums.
| Carnations are raised from cuttings
| which are put in beds in hothOuses
as early as February and March.
When rooted thev are put in pots and
| left in the houses at rather low
| temperature until the weather gets
| quite warm, when they are set in beds
out in gardens and kept from bloom
ing during the summer by pinching
| off the buds, thus letting them grow
strong and bushy. About the middle
| of September they are taken up and
! put in the carnation houses, set In
rich rotted sod mixed with sand and
loan, and forced constantly to bloom,

DAMAGE BY FLOODS.

London, Nov. 13.-Much damage has
been done in the flooded district and
some lives have been lost. Passen-
gers who crossed the channel during
the storm describe the voyage as an
awful experience. In Dorsetshire and
Somersetshire the heaviest floods in
years have been experienced. At
Bath, Somerset, the water was breast
high in many of the streets. In other
places the people were so alarmed by
the rising waters that they sought
refuge i'll the attics or on high ground.
People had to be rescued by boats
from. the windows of the upper stories
of houses. Others were fed by boats
the same way. Recent gales are re.
ported along the coast and throughout
France

IN FAVOR OF PULLMAN.
A Witness Says the Houses We're
Rented Very Cheaply.
(By Associated Press. }


CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-Several of the wit
nesses examined by the Strike Commits
sion to-day gave testimony more favor
abe to the Pullman Company than that
which had previously been heard. g.
Frank Glover, a real-estate agent, said
he considered the Puilmon houses al SIS
month houses In surrounding towns. The
Pullman houses were well equipped and
beautifully located, he said, and rents
were not, In his opinion, too high.
In reply 10 query or Commissioner
Wright. Mr.. Glover denied that he was
In any way connected with the Pullman
Company.
Paul Il. Herms, a newsdealer. who for
merly worked IN the Pullman shops, said
he did not place much faith In the COM
paints of the men. Their trouble, he
thought, was Largely due to fondness
for beer
All the sa.oon-keepers in the urround-
ing towns had grown rich, Mr.. Herms
declared, and a large number OF Ken
sington beer wagons were supported by
the Pullman employees. or real-estdte
values he knew little. but did not believe
the Pullman rents were unusually high.
T. p. Johnson. Pullman furniture
dea.er. testified that store-room rents In
the town had been cut, though no reduc-
ton had been made in the residence
rentals
Chairman Wright announced that the
Commission has concluded Its inquiry
into the strike from the side Of en-
ployees, and will now hear the state
ments Of public officials and employers.
Mayor Hopkins. Chief Of Police Bren-
officials have been summoned. and Gov.
Altgeld will probably be called upon. The
Commissioners refuse to say whether or
not Mr.. Pullman will testify.
