st. Petersburg, June 2.-It can safe
ly be predicted that the Russian squad
ron at Port Arthur will not wait until
the last moment before out. The
admiralty seems to ell. no fear,
If the situation there beco... . desperate,
that the squadron will be caught like
a rat in a trap.
Rear Admiral Witsoeft's dispatch
given out yesterday gave assurances
on this point portion Of which not
made public, said that every ship
except the Pobeida was now ready to
go to sea at a moments notice and
that the channel was clear.
He confirmed the belief which existed
here, that the japanese will continue
their efforts to block the channel be-
fore the decisive moment to storm the
fortress on the land side arrives and
has made plans accordingly. In the
opinion of the most competent military
critics. the land fortifcations must be
preached before a general assault can
be risked and this is not considered
possible in less than three weeks.

FOUND BUT REMNANTS
OF A CHARRED BODY.
Detectives Are Seeking to Solve n
Murder Mystery.


Murder Mystery.
Philadelphia, June 2-Detectives of
Delaware county and this city are
working hard in an endeavor to un-
ravel the mystery connected with the
finding of the body of man on Deco
ration Day in the marsh close to the
banks of Darby creak, south Of here.
On the banks Of DARBY creek are
scores of boat houses, many of them
being the rendezvous of dissolute men
and women, who spend nearly every
Sunday during the summer months in
drinking and carousing. 1t is evident
an attempt had been made to destroy
all means of Identification by burning
the body, and the murderer or murder
ers covered their tracks we'll.
Within a few hundred yards of the
spot where the body was found is the
farm house of William Horne. On the
night of Sunday, May %, a rope and
two pieces of chain were stolen from
Horne's barn. This chain was found
close to the body of the murdered man.
1t had been fastened to fence posts
by staples, and after close investiga-
tion the detectives have concluded that
the man had become involved in a
quarrel over a game of cards in one
Of the boat houses and had been muir
dered; that his body was chained to
the posts, saturated with oil and then
set on, fire. A two-gallop oil can, COM
paratively new and which had been
stolen from the Horne residence, was
lying close to the charred. trunk, which
would seem to bear out this theory.
Two suspender buckles, half of
hand and the toe of shoe are the
only means by which the detectives
can hope to identify the murdered
man.
