A RUSSIAN INVASION
RoUSEs THE FEARS OF THE
CHINESE
Instead of Partition the Russian Bea]
Seems Inclined to Absorb the
Whole Outfit

VANCOUVER, B. c., March 9.-Ori-
entail advices say that the Liao-Tong
province is in great alarm and many
rumors are afioat of a Russian invasion
and capture by Russian troops of vast
territory in China.
The stories arose over the fact that
Chinese are fleeing from this province,
leaving their homes unprotected, owing
to the advance of $4,000 Russian troops
through the territory, while the 5000 Chi
nese troops left to guard that section of
the country can scarcely be kept from
throwing down their arms.
The Russians who have crossed the
border are divided into three corps, one
corps containing 5000 Siberian outlaws,
who are given a chance to leave the
mines and serve in the army without
pay
The latest dispatch states that the
Russians are at Nuho, China, near the
Amur river, where it is said fabulously
rich gold mines are being worked and
gold is stored 1t is feared that some of
the troops are to seize the mines and
gold in case of war breaking out and
work the mines with Siberian convicts,

CHINESE ANARCHY
VANCOUVER, B. c., March 9.-Ad-
vices from the Orient say that state of
anarchy prevails on the island of Hal
nan. Bands of outlaws said to number
6000 men have raided eleven military
camps and twenty-eight villages, mur-
dering and looting in their course. 1t
is impossible to describe the triumphant
march of murder and lust through
peaceful pastoral towns surrounding
the city of Kiachaow. After a week of
slaughter the anarchists grew weary
and thought of safety. They erected
barricades in the mountains behind Kia-
chaow and stored up enough provisions
to last them year. A greatly superior
force of military is being mobilized for
the purpose of clearing them out.
THE RUSSIAN SQUADRON
HONGKONG, March 9.-The Russian
warships Sissoi Veliky and Navarin.
both belonging to the Black Sea fleet,
have arrived here. The political situ-
alton in the far East is causing uneasi-
ness among the population of this port.

THE MARTIN CASE
Ends With the Acquittal of the
Sheriff

WILKESBARRE, Pa. March 9.-The
jury in the case of Sheriff Martin and
his deputies, charged with the killing of
strikers at Lattimer on September 10
last, returned verdict of mot guilty"
Long before the time for court to con :
vene there was a great crowd outside.
Only a limited number were admitted.
Judge Woodward took his seat on the
bench at 10 o'clock. The jury came in
few minutes later. The clerk asked:
Gentlemen of the jury, have you
agreed upon verdict?"
The foreman replied: 1--WE have"
At the same time he handed the clerk
the written verdict, which was prompt
ly passed to Judge Woodward.
After reading the verdict the judge
returned the paper to the clerk. The
latter. addressing the jury, said:
Gentlemen, your verdict in the case
Of the Commonwealth VS.. James Martin
ct al. is not guilty; so say you all?"
1--WE do" was the reply.
The jury was then polled and each
Juror answered mot guilty" as his
name was called.
An attempt at applause was quickly
suppressed by the Judge.
The jury took only one ballot. 1t was
unanimous for acquittal. It is said
the jury was prepared for verdict be-
fore leaving the box.
After the jury had been thanked and
discharged by Judge Woodward, Dis
trict Attorney Martin asked that the
defendants be required to continue their
bail bonds, as there are still seventeen
indictments for murder hanging over
them and thirty-eight for feloniously
wounding.
The bond was continued as requested.
District Attorney Martin says he has not
decided what to do with these other
cases. The prosecuting committee, it
is said, will insist upon further prose-
cution.
