San Francisco, Dec. 6.-The Cal
says: The report that the Russian gov
eminent is buying large quantities o
army supplies in the United States has
been verified. Cable messages from
Vladiovstock asking merchants to bid
on large lots are frequently received.
Yesterday Dodge, Sweeney 81 Co., OF

sells from the Black sea. 1
The concentration of Russian troops
at that point and the haste that Japan
is making to increase her power on the
sea leads some of our merchants tC
predict that the impending conflict be.
tween Russia and Japan may open as
early as next summer. The recent
heavy orders for army supplies to be
forwarded to Vladivost0ck are regarded
as significant Of important movements
in the Orient.
1t is believed the completion of the
trans-Siberian railroad with its ter
minus at V~ladivostock will largely in
crease the trade of San Francisco, and
there is talk of establishing a line OF
steamers to that place, touching at
Alaskan ports. A local subsidy Of
$780, 600 a month has already been sub,
scribed for an Alaskan line.

DUE TO THE KLoNDIkE RUSH,
Big War in Passenger Rates to Ar

Milwaukee, Dec. 2.-The war in mas.
senger rates between Chicago, Milwau-
kee and st. Paul is likely to continue,
and railroad men look for the liveliest
kind OF cutting in rates further west.
owing to the big rush to the Klondike,
A well-known railroad mar said TODAY
that since the rate dropped to 81, reduc-
tions in fares will likely result as far
west as Portland. The nominal rate is
1870 second-class on the st. Paul road.
and $59. 20 tirst-class. With s7 from
Chicago to st. Paul as a basis, the fare
will probably be changed to $47 second
class and S51 irst-class. He added that
this was merely a preliminary for, the
establishment OF an entirely new sched-
ule OF rates to the West January /.
which will be much lower. All the
roads are preparing to make special
rates to the points nearest the Klondike
region, and each road is after all there
is in it. )" AAb 4A- ,t,r., Ia, -

= The famous Ringling Bros. whose
Worlds Greatest Shows come to Will
mar next Thursday, June II, have this
year revolutionized the circus business
Dy lnaugurating magnificent street
spectacle, which is presented as free
Offering to the public or a scale of
magnitude and grandeur such as no
amusement management has ever be-
lore attempted. Instead of the con-
ventional street parade with which cir
cus-goers are familiar, Ringling Bros.
have organized an elaborate carnival,
consisting Of thirty huge sections, each
OF which is representative OF some dis
tlnct national characteristic or of some
age Or era in the history of the world.
Although combined in one gorgeous
procession, each section is a separate
and distinct division, and worthy of
minute inspection. Among the most
striking sections is that devoted to
India, representing scenes of warfare
IN the Pun aub, huge elephants har-
messed to rumbling siege guns, mount
ed military escorts; dark-hued East
Indian chiefs, brilliantly uniformed
native military, guides, attendants,
and commanding officers. Then there
are correct representations of all the
most famous crack military organiza-
tions of the world, brilliantly uni
formed. handsomely mounted and with
their FURNISHED accoutremepts glitter
ing in the sunlight like FURNISHED gold
and silver. The reproduction of the
Derby day is a revelation to lovers of
fine stock and swell turnouts. The
striking features of the famous Eng
llsh meet are represented by hundreds
OF leading artists and performers, all
dressed in the latest London modes,
and giving most interesting and i'm
posing representation of the heavy
swelldom Of English society. The i'm.
mense -tallyhos, the spider rigs and
dainty T-carts used in this section
alone represent muniicent expendi-
ture, beyond the reach of any other
other show in the world, while even
the great Derby day meet itself could
not bring together SO magnificent a
display of blooded racing stock. An
Egyptian caravan, crossing the Sa-
hara, with its camels, dromedaries.
wiry Arabian horses, Bedouins of the
desert, Soudanese. Algerians and the
other strange people from Northern
Africa, brings that land of mystic in.
terest close to the spectators vision.
The special children's sections, with
it's prancing ponies, children's tab.
leaux, children's hippodrome and the
miniature cages of rare wild beasts
is a delight to the younger element
while the glimpses of imperial splen.
dor given in the ancient Roman sec.
ton, and the numberless new, noveI
and startling features in the other
sections, including 10 bands of music
and over 100 tableaux cars, dens and
open cages Of rare wild beasts, all
combined to make this the most re.
markable display Of exhibitiona:
wealth and magnificent originality the
world has ever seen.
