Russia and Japan Both Getting Ready
 for Possible conf1tct.
 London, July A .The Daily Mails Tokio correspondent sends rather an alarming view of the situation in the east to his paper He says that Rus sia's retention of Manchuria, the in crease of her fleet the dispatch of rein forcements to Manchuria, the south ward movement of the occupying army in Manchuria and the defiant conduct on the Corean frontier alarms the Jap- anese, many of whom are convinced that it would be better to fight now than risk the eventual loss Of Corea and the relegation of Japan to a sec ondary place. He says the Japanese hre accommodating stores and negoti iat- ing the purchase of ships; that a squad- ron is off Vladivostock, to which port Russian vessels have been sent as a precaution, and that both fleets are ready for action at any moment. He says that perusal of the Siberian press reveals the aggressive spirit of the Russian military party; that the Russians believe they will lose prestige if they give way now, with the result that their far eastern empire will be lost and Japanese influence will be- come predominant The appointment of Marquis Ito as president of the privy council, the correspondent says, is fa- vorable to peace, but that Russia must retreat or there will be very great dan ger of war. He says that the Japanese ! believe that France and England will join in the expected conflict, which, dip- lornatists at Tokio think, might, if once begun, continue for years, Involving disastrous results to Japanese finance and the creation of sort of Balkan difficulty in Corea. He adds that con- fidence is shown in the Anglo-Japanese alliance. l....5 ...t

The doeu- ment then enumerates all the property which Leo possessed and provides that it shall all go to his successor for the benefit of the church, including even the presents which might. perhaps, be considered personal rather than gifts to the pope. as such. The money which the pope lest is in a closed safe in his bedroom, the keys having been given to different persons mentioned in the will.
 All the land purchased and buildings erected for institutions personally founded by Leo are put in the name of the Holy See to avoid possible claims from relatives. as the pope probably re- membered that some time after the death of Plus K, the latter's nephews instituted a suit against the church claiming fifteen thousand francs as their portion of his estate. The will ends by providing that his remains shall be buried in the Basilica of St. John Lateran in the tomb which he had already chosen.

Reliance Gives Her the worst Defeat

 Newport, R. I. July 23--In race for a special cup to-day the Reliance gave the Columbia the worst beating she has ever sustained in a contest sailed in a good wholesail breeze. Sailing over a course of thirty-eight miles in length, nearly twenty of which were dead to windward, the new cup yacht finished IS minutes 49 seconds ahead of the old champion.
 The Constitution went up to Bristol last evening to have a new topmast put on and did not arrive here to-day until too late to go out to the starting line.

 designs of rose, thistle and shamrocks.
 The influence of the sovereigns secured
 a social union which English statesmen had vainly sought to attain. The Irish guards acted as a guard of honor and l the grand staircase was lined with Lancers.

ESCAPED coNFIoTs CAUGHT.
Four Men who Cot Out of Dannemora Prison Rounded Up.

Plattsburg, N. T.. July 23.-After searching five days and nights. John Elliott and Edward Kennedy, two of the four escaped convicts, from Danne- mora prison, were captured in the woods near Bornaby's Corners to-day.
 Peter James and John Collins, the other two, were run down and cap- tured tonight about quarter of a mile from the Rutland railroad station at Altoona and less than mile from where Elliott and Kennedy were taken. They were drenched by the rain, hun gry and exhausted. When Keeper Sev- erance got the drop on them with his rifle they quickly threw up their hands.
 Keeper John North and a civilian named Lafountaine discovered Elliott and Kennedy early this morning. They opened fire with their rifles and Elliott was shot in the leg. Lafountaine sum moned help and the men were captured about 2 o'clock this afternoon. Super intendent of Prisons Collins placed the men in wagon and drove back to the prison, leaving Warden Deyo to round up the other two.
 The convicts reached the prison at 6:9O tonight. Kennedy and Elliott each had on clothes, hats. and stockings stolen from Purdy's store. In their pockets were found s13s7. the exact amount of money stolen from Purdy. They will be indicted, tried, and un- doubtedly sentenced for hurglarizing the store. This sentence, together with the loss of the time they would have been allowed, for good behavior, will keep them in prison ten or fifteen years beyond the three years which remained of their present terms.
 Elliott and Kennedy also said they were first informed of the digging of the tunnel under the prison wall about four months ago by Peter James. and that at that time the digging had been almost completed, so that in all proba- bility James and Collins had been at work on it for year or more.

JONES IN NEW YORK.
Infiammatory Language at Street
 Meeting There.

New York, July 2S.-"Mother'' Jones' army abandoned it's march to-day in view of Police Commissioner Ebstein's
 refusal to permit parade. Later May or Low granted permit to hold an evening meeting. Still later Ebstein
 reversed himself and granted a permit to parade.
 With drums beating and transparent cies setting forth. their demands. the
 army walked this evening through
 East Fourth street, up Second avenue to Twenty seventh street, and then west to Madison avenue, where the meeting took place. l Two hundred people, exclusive of the large police escort, were in line. Mother
 Jones herself gave the order, Forward, march!' but marching was not attempt led by any one in the procession; even were it possible to keep to the rag-time drumming and fife-playing of the corps.
 People who saw the motley collection of walkers and their police escort wonder ed what it was all about. We want justice" .'We want fifty five hours work and other wants were described on the transparencies.
 Mother Jones, who marched in the van, answered any questions put to her by the spectators.
 The speaking was from a truck. A man introduced as Colonel Geiger, of Philadelphia, presided and made a I speech. So did Benjamin Hanford, the candidate for governor of New York on l the socialist democratic ticket at the last election. Colonel Geiger introduce l ed Mother Jones, who was greeted with cheers. She advanced to the end of the truck with two youthful textile strik- 1 CTS, about whom she placed her arms. Mother Jones began by saying that she had just marched ninety-two miles and was very tired, and had brought with her little band of slaves. And" ," lsaid she, Eve are quietly marching to- lwards the presidents home. I believe he can do something for these children, ialthough the press declares he cannot.
 Congress last year passed a bill giving $45000 to fill the stomach of an old prince, and he endorsed that. If he lcould do that, he surely could tell con- gress to pass bill that would take the children out of the God-accursed mills I and put them in the schools. To-mor- row night in Madison Square I will dis lcuss child slavery in prosperous Amer tica. and want to tell you that if we have built our prosperity on the quiv- Iering hearts of the little children, we have paid too great a price for our prosperity. I will draw such picture Iof child slavery that you will not have to go to Russia, after I have finished, to
 see a picture of darkest Russia
 Hanford abused the police, including
 Ebstein, who was present, and to whom he referred as coward and scoundrel;
 Mayor Low, J. F. Morgan, J. D. Rock l lefeller and others, and among other f things thus advised his hearers. Next election vote so that you will lcarry the revolver instead of the police. Not that we socialists believe in blood- shed, but if bloodshed there is to be, want to see a battlefield where the cap Iitalist lies stark, and where the social lists are planting their banner.

- ELKS, CONVENTION.
Largest and Most succsssfui of Graud
 , Lodge Meetings:


 Baltimore. July 23.-- What many of the members of the grand lodge of Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks claim to have been the largest and most successful gand lodge meeting in the history of the organization, closed this evening. E
 There were two sessions of the grand lodge to-day, at the first of which only routine matters were discussed. At the evening session it was decided to re- store it's charter to the Macon, Ga, lodge, the charter committee having re- ported favorably on the appliation after a thorough investigation of the charges against the lodge. The committee on ritual was not prepared to report all the changes proposed in the ritual and the matter was carried over, the committee being instructed to report a complete ritual when i. is agreed upon. A res- olution was adopted discouraging the throwing of confetti during future grand lodge meetings. !. It is said that many of the more conservative members urged the adoption of this resolution.
