 The list of dead and injured has not been received up to midnight, but it is thought that a large proportion of the victims were Greek laborers.

 It is also reported that a fireman named Burt with his wife and three children were killed.
 The explosion wrecked everything within radius of half a mile.
 Jackson station was used principally as a telegraph station. but a number of outfit cars were sidetracked at that place for the accommodation of work men and their families.
 Some of these cars. it is stated, were close to where the explosion occurred The occupants homes were destroyed. The telegraph operators house was badly damaged and Operator Taylor and his wife injured.
 The nearest telegraph office is at Lucin. fifteen miles from the scene of the explosion.

affairs which prevails in China. will m all parts of Chinese territory ex- eepting the regions now occupied by Russia, respect the neutrality of China, so long as Russia does the same.
 ''The rules of war which govern the forces of Japan in the field do not per- init the wanton destruction of proper ty. Accordingly, the imperial Chinese government may rest assured that the mausoleums and palaces at Mukden and Hsingking and public buildings in China everywhere would be secure from any injury not attributable to the action of Russia.
 Furthermore, rights Of Chinese off, cials and inhabitants within the zone of military operations will, in the lr persons and property, be fully re- spected and protected by the imperial forces so far as military necessity per mits.
 Tn the event. however, that they should extend aid and comfort to the enemy of Japan, the imperial govern ment reserves to itself the right to take such action as circumstances re- quire.
 Ut only remains to say in conclusion that the present war is not being waged by Japan for the purpose of conquest, but solely in defense of her legitimate rights and interests and consequently that the imperial gov ernment has no intention to acquire territory at the expense of China as d result of the conflict"
 The impetial government also wants the imperial Chinese government to clearly understand that whatever ac- tion may be taken by it on Chinese territory which is made the theater of war will be the result of military ne- cessity and not in impairment of China's sovereignty.

THE RUSSIAN PROGRESS
National Censorship of Generations
 Has Been Abolished.

St. Petersburg, Feb 19.-Tae Russian government today abolished the censor ship on all news and ether telegrams uoing abroad with the exception of the ordinary war censorship during hos tilities.
 The lifting of the embargo, which has existed for generations, on the free transmission of news from the Russian empire came as a direct result of a consideration of the subject by the czar himself, and in some respects this abo- lition is regarded as the most import ant act since the emancipation of the serfs.
 The internal censorship is 10 be re- tained, but foreign dispatches are to be entirely free. Since a state of war exists, news from the theater of hos tilities will be subject to the s;Ime kind of censorship enforced in all countries under similar circumstances.

The account shows an admirable handling of the two Russian warships in the face Of overwhelming odds Officers state that when the Japanese squad ron or eight warships appeared off ChemulpO they were met by a small torpedo war boat the Morietz, which had been sent out to reconnoiter; that the korietz, on sighting the Japanese squadron immediately returned to the the Japanese followed to the harbor and rejoined the Variag and mouth of the harbor and sent the Rus sians a peremptory summons to. sur render. This message, the officers add, was disregarded, whereupon the Japa- nese threatened to enter the harbor and engage the Russians thC re.
 As this would have endar gered oth- CT vessels in the harbar. including the French and other vessels, Captain ROundnef of the Variag, as senior off, Cer, boldly gave orders that both yes sels steam out and meet the enemy.

Russia Wants No COnSuIS at
 DdIny THE U. $. TURNED DOWN
The Action Was Of so Great Import
 ance That the State Department Refers 1t to the President-I It Is Ex- plaincd War Is Going On, Not Trade

Washington, Feb. 19.-Secretary Hay has been informed that Edwin V. Nor gan will not be granted an exequatur by the Russian government authorlz- ing him to act as United States con sul at Dalny.
 MT. Morgan is now on his way from Washington to his post. He will sail from San Francisco and touch at Yokohomc, at which point the state department will be able to advise him a month hence what course to pursue.
 The decision on the part of the Rus sian government was not altogether unexpected, but it is nevertheless the subject of grave consideration by the state department officials. Secretary Hay regarded the matter as of suffi- cient important to warrant a personal visit to>the White House today, where he represented the facts to the presi- dent. It can be stated that up to this momen a decision has not been reach ed as to the answer to be made to the Russian government.
 It is said that the reasons assigned for the declination to receive Mir. Morgan are entirely impersonal
 In fact, Morgan having been for several years one of the American sec retaries Of the embassy at St. Peters burg is really very popular with the Russian officials who would be glad to receive him as consul if other con- alterations did not forbid
 It is explained that the reason for Russia's action is purely military, army officers desiring that there shall be no foreign officials on the Liao- Tung peninsula during the progress of hoStilities.
