CORRESPONDENCE of the Associated Press

Correspondence of the Associated Pressl
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-The steam
ship Peru arrived tonight from Yoko-
hama, bringing the following auvices to
the Associated Press:
YOKOHAMA, Oct. 30.-General Oyama's
army left Japan October 18th. The num-
Der of troops was estimated at little
more than 10000. They filled nearly
fifty transports, and 500 flat bottomed
boats accompanied the hotilla to facilitate
The landing. On October oath the east
coast of the Liau Tung Peninsula was
reached. A considerable part of the
force was put on shore at point sup
posed to be some forty miles north of
Port Arthur, and little north of the
fortified town of Kin Chao or Chin Chiu,
on the opposite coast. The remainder of
the army passed around the extremity of
Inc peninsula into the Gulf of Peahili,
and toward destination not yet posi-
lively known TO the public in Japan.
The fleet under Admiral Ito moved
simultaneously upon the two ports OF
Port Arthur and Tab Lien Wan. Their
purpose was to hem in all the Chinese
garrisons south of Tall Yali Yum and
compel their surrender, as well as Adj
mlral Ilng's squadrons. The native
troopssdefending these positions were be-
l1eyed not to exceed 5000 in number.
The facts are telegraphed from Shanghai.
The scene of operations is so remote
that no direct intelligence has been re-
selved by the Japanese Government. The
mastery of the strongholds which COM
mand one side of the entrance to the
Gulf OF Pechili Will give powerful adj
vantage to Japan, and the possession or
destruction OF the ships sheltered at Port
Arthur Will secure her the undisputed
control of Chinese waters; but the cap
ture of large body OF soldiers will be
only burden, which would be gladly
avoided were ii possible.
SEIZURE OF CHIU LIEN.
General Yamagata's army has signal
lied 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 hardly be
called battle. The crossing of the Yalu
River was completed on the morning OF
October 18th, and was followed by sue
cession of skirmishes, in which the Jap
anese lost seventy killed and wounded.
Kew Leen fell October 10Th. The defend
ing force was estimated variously at from
10000 to 10000 all of whom ran away at
the first onset of the assailants. The
killed and eighty wounded. OF the Chi
nese, 200 were reported killed. The
spoils were of great value, including
thirty large cannon, thousands of small
arms, abundance of ammunition, 300 tents
and quantities of provisions and fodder
The assault was led by Colonel Sato.

Republicans rejoice at the political tidal
wave which has swept the country, and
well they may. 1t Will not do, however,
for them to take to themselves a greater
share OF the credit than is due them. The
result of Tuesdays voting is but another
evidence CT the Irresistible preponderance
ofindependent thought and individual ac-
ton, in contradistinction to the party
lash, or blind following of leaders of any
political creed.
Politicians who are not blinded by

The red-backed teetee, or squirrel monkey,
Is by far the most beautiful in form and
color of all the North American monkeys. as
well as being an interesting pet in captivity.
The length Of the body and head is about II
inches, and the tail is about the same length.
In color the whole skull cap is black; the
ears, face, neck, and throat are white: the
back is reddish-brown the sides of the body,
forearms, hands, and feet are ocher-yellow !:
and the arms, thighs, and upper two-thirds
of the tail are olive and gray. The tail is
not prehensible, and the outer third of it is
covered with rather bushy black hair, long

Throughout this vast region mountain
ranges and volcanoes are plentiful, and some
of cur monkeys will be found at elevations
as high as 5000 feet above the sea.
For monkey hunting in high forests a
small rifle is absolutely essential; but in
moderately low jungle a shotgun loaded
with coarse shot is best And now for a
plunge into the jungle. We will hunt our
North American monkeys in the order in
which they should be Classification the
highest to the lowest First, however. please
note the following facts:
No apes balloons nor tailless monkeys are
found in the New World.
No monkeys with prehensile tails are
Iound in the Old World; and whenever an
African or East Indian traveller tells you how
he saw monkeys hang by their tails tell him
hes another!
Not all American monkeys have prehensile
tails, but this character is possessed by about
one-fourth of them.
Most American monkeys can be distin-
guished from Old World species by the wide
space, or septum, between the nostrils.

Central Asian Deserts.

Mr.. w. Woodville Rockhill describes in an
entertaining style, in The Century for April,
his attempt to cross Tibet HIS picture of
portion of the country he traversed is not
alluring.
Life in the Central Asian deserts is rough
indeed, he says. Nature is without attrac-
tions of any kind it is bleak and repelling;
never tree is seen, and scarcely flower,
except for month or two in the year. Prob
ably the Arctic regions alone offer a more
meager flora. One Sees only coarse grass, or
bare, gravel-strewn ground of reddish
tinge. In the most favored valleys, and

and sandy wastes, cut at short distances by

Mono, which is the Spanish word for mon
key.
The bowling monkeys of all species have
about the same habits. In disposition and
intelligence they are rather dull and slug
gish, and as pets they are not a success.
They live in troops of from five to Is, gen.
orally in the tops of the tallest trees or else
in the most tangled and impenetrable por-
tions of the lower forests. Their flesh is
eaten by the Indians of Central and South
America.

only the merest little thumblet has appeared
