According to Contract.


Washington, May 9.-Those who are
taking an interest in the movements
of Russia in Manchuria were excited
and amazed when the following Ca
BILE from Pek.ng was published: THE
Russians, it is announced, have reoc-
cupied New Chwang with a large force
and have also put garrisons in the
forts at the mouth of the Lao river
They are further reported to be max
ing extensive warlike preparations"
The state department received Of
fetal confirmation from its agents in
China of the increase of the Russian
garrison in New Chwang, and there is
reason to believe, if President Roose-
welt approves, that it is preparing to
take vigorous steps in the matter. 1t
is stated that the department has had
its patience taxed by the course of
events i'm Manchuria, and that it now
contemplates a more radical step than
any which has heretofore marked the
negotiations between the powers on
this subject. The proposed step con-
templates joint action ~ Japan, Eng
land and the United Sites.
Preceding negotiations have been
hampered by the inability of this gov.
eminent to act jointly with other ma
lions without violating its Traditions,
but il is now limited that some plan
of cooperation with England and
Japan will be devised which will have
the effect of convincing the Russian
government Of the united determine
ton of the three nations to insist upon
Russias evacuation of Manchuria.

BURGLAR STORY Is DOUBTED
No Evidence That William Patterson Wss
Badly Woundsd by . Night
Earaudor,

Muncie, Ind. May S.--The shooting
OF William Patterson is still as much
a mystery as ever. Detectives have
been placed on the case, but up to
the present time nothing tangible has
been produced. The burglar story has
been thoroughly gone over and moth
ing has been found that would indi-
cate that Patterson was wounded by
a person Of lhis character. The names
of prominent people are being used in
rumors and at the bottom of some
there seems to be foundation.
Patterson passed fairly good day,
but the attending physicians do not
hold out much hope for his ultimate
recovery. George f. McCulloch, presi-
dent of the Union Traction, is doing
all possible to unravel the mystery.
The family insists that burglar COM
mitted the crime.
