Failure OF Prince Tuan to Incite the
Mongolians to Rise Against
the Cars COssacks.
FRENCH TROOPS TO LEAVE
TEN THOUSAND MEN WILL SOON
WITHDRAW FROM CHINA.
Fears Expressed that Departure of
Foreign Soldiers Will BE Followed
by Renewal of Outrages.

LONDON, April 23.-According to a dis
patch from st. Petersburg to the Daily
Mail, official information has been received
that renewed military activity is beginning
in Manchuria. Chinese troops are strongly
intrenched at three points around Mukden.
They are armed with good Mauzer rifles
and have thirty Krupp guns. To the east
ward of Mukden, near Turchausen. there
are 12.OO0 men under the chief Boxer Cen
eral Lutanse. To the northwest, near Kulo,
there are 5000 Chinese under the former
Governor of Mukden. To the eastward, in
Mongolia and near the In-Shan mountains,
there are 5000 more under the Chinese Cen
erai Schu.
ADMIRAL Alexieff has accordingly or
ganized an expedition under General Ter
pinsky, consisting of two regiments and
five Sotnias and Cossacks. sixteen guns and
body of volunteers, to operate against the
three points mentioned. The first move
ment successfully carried out in the
beginning of April. Kulo. which is 25O kiio-
meters from Mukden, was stormed and the
Ex-Governor of Mukden was taken pris-
oner. In this action the Russians had thir-
teen men killed and four officers and eight
cen men wounded. The advance toward
the Turchausen position was then begun.
Owing to the departure of most of the
Russian troops from Mukden the latter
city has become very unsafe. Almost
nightly Russian sentries are found shot in
the back. The situation in southern Man
churia is disquieting. and another advance
of Russian troops will be necessary in the
early spring.
According to Russian advices," says tie
ST. Petersburg correspondent of the Times,
Prince Tuan has utterly failed to produce
rising among the inhabitants of Mon
golia, who are kept quiet by a wholesome
respect for Russia. 1t is therefore dec ered
TO be untrue that an insurrect;ol has
broken out in Mongolia"

"BiIIy" Smith Probably Knocked Out
for Good i'm London.

LONDON. April 23-At the National
Sporting Club. London, last night Jack
Roberts. of England. knocked out BILLY
Smith. the American, in the eighth round.
The fight was for the limestone cham
pionship of England. Smiths right was
dislocated in the fourth round, and when
he was knocked out in the eighth he did
not regain consciousness. At $50 a. m
he was still lying in a comatose condition
at a hospital 1t is feared he will die
Billy Smith is New Yorker and re-
sides the east side of Manhattan island
His lighting in this country before he
crossed the Atlantic showed him TO be
boxer of fine promise. and his American
friends counted his defeating Roberts,
although it was expected that he would
have a hard fight on his hands. Roberts is
the best featherweight who has figured in
England of recent years. He is stockily
built. like Lavigne. tough. and capable OF
taking severe punishment The fact that
he had never been defeated created con-
siderable speculation among Americans,
and his own English following, which is
very large. backed him heavily. Smith and
Roberts came together for fifteen rounds
for a purse of $1,000 and a bet of $1,000 a
side.
