CHINESE ACTIVITY IN MANCHURIA.
WARFARE ON AN EXTENSIVE SCALE EX.
PECTED BY THE RUSSIANS

London, April 23-According to a dispatch
from st. Petersburg to THE Daily Mail" official
information has been received that renewed
military activity is beginning in Manchuria
Chinese troops strongly intrenched at three
points around Moukden. They are armed with
good Mauser rifles, and have thirty Krupp guns
To the eastward of MOukden, Turchausen
there twelve thousand men under the chief
Boxer general Lutanse. To the northwest near
Kulo, there are six thousand Chinese under the
former Governor of Moukden. To the eastward
IN Mongolia and near the In-Shan Mountains
there are nine thousand more under the Chinese
General Schu.
Admiral Alexief has accordingly organized
expedition under General Zerpinsky, consist
ing Of two regiments and five sotnias of Cos
sacks, sixteen guns and body Of volunteers to
operate against the three points mentioned.
The first movement was successfully carried out
in the beginning of April. Kuo. which is $50
kilometres from Moukden. stormed. and
the Ex-Governor of Moukden taken pris-
oner. In this action the Russians had thirteen
men killed and four officers and eighteen men
wounded. The advance toward the Turchausen
position then begun.
Owing to the departure of most of the Russian
troops from Moukden, the latter city has be-
very unsafe. Almost nightly Russian
sentinels are found shot in the back.
The situation in Southern Manchuria is dis
quietng and another advance of Russian troops
will be necessary in the early spring.

BIG INCREASE IN FUNDED DEBT.
CONTROLLERS REPORT SHOWS THAT COST
OF CITY GOVERNMENT IS S35.Oo0OoO-

OF CITY GOV ID sioo'u'N'u'S-
The report of Controller Coler for the fiscal
wear ending December 81. 1900. was turned into
the Mayor yesterday. 1t covers 2s6 pages. and
gives a detailed statement of the city's financial
condition The striking feature of the summary.
which occupies the five closing pages Of the re-
port. is the increase shown in the funded debt
of the city Under Tammany administration the
total funded debt increased from S35S 1O4. 800 IL
on December 81. 1899. TO 3S99O5S 500 80 on De-
cember 81. 1900. nearly $50. .0Oo.0 200.
While the tax budget calls for the raising OF
sos, 100000 for 1901. it seems that does not
represent anywhere near the money actually
spent last year. for the reason that the bonds
issued for permanent improvements were not
figured in If these included the citys
peuditures last year amounted TO at least $751;
100000. Many people in reading the Controllers
report will conclude that inasmuch the bond
issues this year and next are likely TO be
large in years gone by. the total cost of the
city administration should be placed at $780,
100000 a year. rather than SOS, ,000. 900.

Opposition to the coal duty Is growing in

South Wales. which has monopoly of the finest
steam coal. will suffer little. but In the North of
England and in Scotland there is uneasiness. as
the coal masters Of Durham and Northumber-
