HIS ATTACK A THUNDERBOLT
General Rennenkampff's Move
Was Carefully Planned.

St St. Petersburg May May 22lf--fofieS-
ing on the heels OF the news OF the
disasters to the Japanese fleet the
general staff received official advices
to-day OF the defeat Of the japanese
force which was marching northward
from Fung Wang Chang FOR the pur-
pose OF executing a flank movement
on Mukden. Details of the dispatch
will not be made public until 1t has
been passed by the war commission,
but enough has been communicated
to the Associated Press to make it
clear that in order to save themselves
from destruction the japanese were
compelled to retreat towards Fung
Wang Chang.
Since General Kuroki sent column
northward to gain the road leading
directly west from Mukden, General
Kuropatkin has kept it under the
closest surveillance, awaiting the
moment when it should be so distant
from the main Japanese army as to
prevent it's easy reinforcement, In
observing this plan the Russian with,
drew, and the Japanese, not finding
a strong force Of the enemy before
them, continued to advance.
When the time for action came,
General Kuropatkin let General Rem
nenkampff loose from leash. Gener,
al Rennenkampff had under his com
mand only a few regiments, but they
we're the flower OF the Cossack cav
airy, May Is he fell upon the
enemy, whose number has not yet
been revealed, with such vigor as to
compel the japanese retirement
twelve miles toward the base, near
enough, it is presumed, to have re
ceiyed reinforcements from General
Kuroki, who Immediately have been
advised OF the awkward predicament.

SAYS WHITE PERSONS
ARE BLEACHED NEGROES.
Bishop Turner Declares That in
the Beginning God Made ALL
Men of a Dusky Hue.

Chicago. May 21,-"God never
made white man. In the beginning
all men were black, but in their wan
derings on the earth many of them
have become bleached. And In their
unnatural pallor many OF these
bleached men, all of whom were made
black at the beginning, now look
with contempt and ndifference-often
with prejudice and hate-upon their
brothers, the negroes, who have re-
tanned the color that God gave
them"
Such was the declaration OF H. NJ.
Turner, senior Bishop OF the African
Methodist Episcopal Church, in an
addressin Q1inn Chapel before one oil
the sessions of the church's annual
conference. The chapel was packed
with negroes who are leaders in the
religious work OF their race, and all
applauded almost wildly.
What we negroes need is more
education" continued Bishop F6rn-
er. "We need not only the various
schools now under control OF our
church, but we need proper instruc'
ton impaired. We should write
books OF our own, poems OF our own,
scientific treatises OF our own in har-
mony with our color and our race.
"non't learn songs like, Wash me
and / shall be whittier than snow, "a
song that | would not tolerate being
sung in my presence.
81 do not want to be misunder-
stood, though, and | will say to the
credit OF the white man-whose race
rs at the same time the meanBst |
ever saw, and the best-that wherev-
er our race tries to rise as a general
rule he will help u.s."

WEB DAVIS AGAIN
IN THE uIMELIGHT.
Now He Complains That He is
Victim OF Sensational AT.
tempt at BlackmaiI.

tCHuHt ~ 6iuGhHtatts
New York, May 20.-Gen. Samuel
Pearson, of Scranton, Pa, and Cor
nelius W. Vonderholt, Washington
newspaper correspondent, were ar
rested yesterday on complaint OF
Webster Davis, former mayor OF
Kansas City and former assistant
secretary OF the interior department,
who charges that they attempted to
blackmail him.
Davis says they threatened his life
unless he paid them $4,000.
During the Boer war MIR. Davis was
agreat ~ mpsthizer with the gallant
South African barghers. and through
his connection with the Boer cause
the present episode came about.
WHEN WEIR WROTE A BooK,
X. C. Times.
He went to South Africa and stay.
ed several months. When he return
ed he resigned his Office and became q
rampant champion Of the Boer cause
He wrote hook, which he said he
sold for S1S0,000. 1t was plea ioI
the Boer cause, and it's sale, he said
explained the great amount of mon
ey which he accumulated and with
which he built the Maryland and
New York fats and other buildings
in Kansas City. No one ever saw q
copy of the book and the story got
around that Mr.. Davis had been en-,
trusted with large sum OF BoeI
money.
1t was this story that brought
about the events witch led up to the
arrest OF Pearson and Vonderholt
They were arraigned yesterday and
held for hearing Tuesday morning,
bail being fixed at 81 500.
COMPLAINED TO THE POLICE.
Mr., Davis has been staying at the
Caledonia apartments, 20 West
Twenty-sixth street, with a friend
named Grant II. Biltheimer. Yester
day he went to police headquarters
and said that he had received severa
threatening letters from Pearson ant
Vonderholt. The last letter he re
ceived was written in pencil and un
signed. On the advice of the polic
Mr.. Davis arranged an appointment
with the two men. Officers were sen
to the house and concealed.
Pearson and Vonderholt came, a
agreed, and when they were seate,
| told him they came to seek an &C
counting OF certain money belonging
to the Boer government. Davis trieC
to get them to be explicit, but the.
would not. Vonderholt, however
asked for $4,000.
| Davis then signaled for the deteC
tiyes and the two callers were arrest
ed.

CONSERVATIVE REVISION"
SAYS SENATOR DANIEL.
Thinks Democratic Platform
Should Deal With Present
Issues Only and the
DinqIey Tariff.

Washington, May 20.-Senator
Daniel, of Virginia, who was a visitor
at the White House to-day, said that
the Democratic platform at st. Louis
should declare for conservative re-
vision OF certain schedules OF the
Dingley tariff.
II think the platform will treat OF
the things we have to deal withnow' "
said the Senator, "and not OF the
things that have been settled. Asto
the tariff, l think the platform will
call for changes in those cases where
the manufacturers are selling Ameri'
can goods at prices at the expense Of
home people.
at is a notorious fact that Ameri'
can nails can be bought in Havana
or in any foreign country cheaper
than in this country. The citizens Of
the United States do not care toglve
protection to establishments doing
this kind of business.
"It il well known that II q mai
buys material to build an engine FOL
export, he can get 1t much cheaper
than II he is to build the engine fol
use in this country. Steel rails for
foreign railroad can be bought mucf
cheaper than when they are to b
used on homo railroads..
"There has been great extrava
gapce since the Republican party hal
had charge. This was shown BY thu
last Congress directing approprla
tions for expanding $7OO,0OO.000
adjourning without attending to tn
business Of the country. There is al
unhealthy state Of affairs and tn
pruning hook Is needed"

RECENT COMMENT.
Why Russia Loses.
A Russian In New York Sun.


Why is it that the Russians lose
their creed? Because the country is
governed by the bureaucracy; it is a
politique Of robbery. The Emperor
OF Japan has power through the in,
terest that every japanese soldier
and citizen has-the love for his Gov.
eminent. Do you think that the
Russian soldiers love their Govern.
ment?
The poor men have no chance to
practice to be gunners. Their money
stolen; everything is stolen-shoes,
clothing, food, powder. The soldier
is starved, frozen, helpless; a poor,
doomed cur. The money goes into
the pockets OF officials. Whereas,
the japanese goes to the war forlove
OF his country, the Russian soldier
has no country; nothing to fight for
no conscience, no love.
That is the weakness OF the Rus
sian Army; that is the reason see
its defeat; that is the reason why il
should lose; why it should be taught
a lesson, paradoxical, logical, for its
own good. The wretched Russian
soldier is but the piteous instrument
by which the whole world may bt
| halna0.

Natures Greatest Cure
For Men and Women.
Swamp-Root is the Most Perfect Healer and Natural
Aid to the Kidneys, Liver and Bladder
Ever Discovered.

US IN silence that our kidneys need
doctoring. If neglected now, the dis
ease advances until the face looks pale
or sallow. puffy or dark circles under
the eyes, feet swell, and sometimes the
heart acts badly.
There is comfort in knowing that
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy, full
fills every wish in quickly relieving
such troubles. 1t corrects inabil-
ity to hold urine and scalding pain in
passing it and overcomes that unpleas-
ant necessity of being compelled TO
&c up many times during the night to
urinate. In taking this wonderful new
discovery, Swamp Root, you afford
natural help to Nature, for Swamp
Root IS the most perfect healer and
gentle aid to the kidneys that has ever
been discovered.

The Dry Banquet.

Yesterday was the one annual rec
letter dav for the gentlemen of the ba!
Of Arizona. It was the one day of the
wear when they could disport them
o selves as a deliberative body and play
horse with parliamentary customs
II was a day crowned by the one night
Of the year when they could take on
pyoyender TO last them until the rolling
year brought around another ban.

nor the centuries will bring them such
another feed. There is a movement on
foot for the elimination of sparkling
',yines and more terrifying liquids.
. To be accurate, the movement on
shA face of it doesn't look to the 2hof-
ison of wine from the banquet table.
II r. pretended that it has no other OBJ
%cct than to compel those who are not
total abstinence men to pay for the
satisfaction of what is regarded ~
some quarters as a perverted appe-
t:te.
That would, of course, mean that
there would be no wine at the dinners
of the. lawyers. Who of the Arizona
bar would be seen with the tails of his
dress coat pushed awry by the bottle
of Moet and Chandon. of Cliquot or
of Pommery Sec which he was vainly
trying to conceal, on his way to the
fcstal board?
If this crusade within TIE terrltor-
iaI bar association embarks upon and
continues on successful course. there
will IN time cease to be bar banIuets.

siYe affair but to the members of more
ruiI habits it would be a ruinous dis
slpation.
Al the present moment the move

careful in their use of the words of the

The Carnegie Library.

The persistent efforts of the Phoe-
nix Women's club have given to Phoe-
nix certain promise of a Carnegie IL
brary. The club has had the effective
support of all broad minded people
and it has had from the city council o
pledge for the maintenance of the Ii
brary, one of the conditions imposed
by Mr.. Carnegie, precedent to his
making the gift.
but for a ridiculous circumstance,
no doubt the handsome library build
ing would already be a municipal
Tucson, which We may say has basis
of inaccurate census figures. Tucson
has taken pains to inform the world
that it is the chief city in point of pop
ulation, in the territory. That state
ment is contained in all the more re-
cent literature sent out from Tucson,
and it is backed by the figures of the
census Of 1900.
The statement has not been very en-
ergetiCally disputed by the people OF
Phoenix. 1t has not been hard to con-
vince those who have visited both cit
les that Notwithstanding the official
census, Phoenix is the larger of the
two. The election registrations. the
school enrolment and more than all
the business of the post
office Of this city, which exceeds
that OF Tucson by fifty per cent. ought
to be convincing of the fact that the
census, however official it may have
been, contains. so far as Phoenix is
concerned, "a damaging error.
The gentlemen who have in hand
the distribution of Mr.. Carnegie's Ii
hraries might naturally believe that il
$4,000 was "A sufficient gift for Tucson,
two-thirds of that sum would be
enough for a town that appeared to be
only two-thirds as big.
The announcement that Phoenix is
at last to have a $4,000 Carnegie IL
brary is in itself gratifying but the
qualification is increased when we I'M
derstand that it follows the removal of
an erroneous impression which has
been unfavorable to this city in Other
ways.
