THE EAILRU4 ~ IN MINCHG RIA

THE E4ILRU1 n IN Nh NCH URI4
The authorities at the head of the
Russian military staff in st. Peters
burg have issued an explanation of the
attack made recently on the Russian
railroad in Manchuria. They say that
at Taku the soldiers of the Chinese
garrison decamped in all directions and
Joined the native rabble. Many of
them went north into Manchuria along
the road through Tsin-chau-fu. The
agitation spread rapidly. and bands of
insurgents and rioters secured the coun-
try. One of these parties attacked the
railroad near Leaoyang, between Port
Arthur and Mukden, and did some dam
age to the line, but were not successful
in cutting the telegraph wires, and
therefore the local Russian authorities
were able to communicate with head
quarters Prompt and energetic meas
ures were taken, and the assailants
were soon dispersed. Order, it is de-
clared, has now been restored and steps
have been taken to secure the safety
of life and property. Russian official
opinion holds that there was no eonnec-
ton between these riotous assaults and
the general Boxer movement against
foreigners, but private opinion is said
to be very different. One party in Rus
sa. headed bv Prince Ukhtomskv
maintains that the government has
made a great mistake in associating it.
self with the other Powers in any
movement against China, which ought
to be Russias friend and ally. At lat
est reports rails Were being laid on the
Port Arthur branch of the Manchuria
railroad at the rate of one mile and
three-quarters day, Chinese laborers
working under Russian guards.

The third convention of Georgia
wheat growers which was held the
other day brought together many of the
most progressive farmers of the State.
The showing made in the convention
demonstrated that wheat is profita-
Bile crop throughout middle Georgia.
The yield of 65 bushels to the acre on
four acres of land, which won the first
prize, is a phenomenal yield of wheat
on any land and the second best yield
of SO 1-2 bushels would be cause for
pride in the best heat-raising States.
The Macon Telegraph says "the wheat
crop in Georgia this year will be the
largest by thousands of bushels GER
tainly since the war, if not, indeed,
since the State was settled, but it is
altogether probable that the yield for
the coming season will grealy exceed
even the great crop of the present.
