ALL QUIET Ar MUKDEN
japanese Advancing Slowly
Cholera at Port Arthur

London, Sept. 2-General Kuropatkin
reports that all was quiet along his en-.
tire front yesterday, and it is evident
from today's advices that the two armies
are not yet in close touch.
A dispatch from Mukden says that the
treme slowness.
Chez Foo reports that two hours of
heavy firing was heard by vessels pass
ing off of Port Arthur.
There Is no confirmation Of the ~dispatcn
from st. Petersburg published in lie
Paris Matin saying that the emperor had
that a general assault on the position
was In progress.
Like the majority Of reports original
ing in the European press it is obviously
an invention. 1t has been some months
since Port Arthur was In communication
with any outside point. and the only
come out by way of Chez Foo and Toxic.
On its face the main story is incredible.
st. Petersburg. Sept. 25.-Although no
confirmation has been received at this
hour at either the war office or admiral
ity of the report from Tsingtau that
cholera had broken out at Port Arthur,
it is admitted that possibly 1T is true
owing to the terribly unsanitary condi-
tions around the fortress arising from
the large number of decaying corpses
there. Blu until confirmation is received
the Tsingtau telegram win not be given
out. In order to avoid causing needless
alarm among the relatives of the brave
defenders.
The announcement none the less has
caused the deepest concern in naval ano
military circles. 1t is hoped, however,
that even If the report is true the out
break will turn out to be a mild one ana
that it will be quickly checked by rigid
discipline and the isolation of suspicious
cases.
1t is pointed out that if the epidemic.
despite all precautions obtains foothold
1t is likely to affect the Japanese as we'll
as the Russians.
The admiralty has not yet received any
confirmation of the report that the yes
sells of vladivostok squadron have put to
sea.

Sunday there are many visitors who
are shown around the institution and
all express surprise at its appearances:
The institution Is in fine financial
condition and there seems to be every
evidence that the work which was tried
a few years ago will be great sue

The commencement exercises which
take place this afternoon Father Tobin
has endeavored to make a real sue

show what they can do at the closing
exercises.
Rev. J. H. Dorsey, the colored priest

Charlie Richardson. a negro. was ar
rested yesterday morning by Private
Detective Paul Rapport and Patrolman
p. J. Sweeney and changes were pre-
ferred against him for an assault to
murder on Conductor Strickland OF
Washington Park car of the Montgom-
cry Street Railway.
1t will be remembered that Monday
night conductor Strickland was serl-
ousIy cut under the right shoulder by
an unknown negro, who had refused to
pay his car fare. Since that time poo
lice have kept a vigilant watch for the
negro.
Yesterday morning Richardson was
arrested at his home on South Jack-
son Street and was positively identi-
fed as the right man by the motorman
of the car. The negro also has an
abrasion on his. face which ne officers
say was inflicted by a transfer punch

He is incarcerated at the county jail

The FIRST commencement of st. Jo-

This Institution Is a novelty in It's

Mt. MeIgs Road. Four years ago Rev.

He was often seen walking into town

every thing good naturedly and won
success; and the place Is now a credit

old man didn't get all of his down at 3 to 1. but pretty near it. and when he trudged to the grandstand to watch the race he stood to win something like s20.OOO.
 'Algol came home on the chin-strap, and Pat collected. Then he went out side the track, shook his fist at the Washington park buildings, hoped a street car for his groggery, took of his coat and began to tend bar; and he has never seen the inside of race track from that day to this. He quit s12.OO0 or so to the good, but he had got his and he couldn't see any more of it.
 And the case of Pat is only one. I've known a whole lot of other elderly men, and some of them of far superior intellect to Pats who got the racing fever late in life and permitted the in sidious thing to carry them over the brink of the abyss. No man is immune from the magnetic contamination of the horse racing game until the pansits are growing over him.-From the Washing ton Star.

PURE LIBERTY REVIVED.
To the Editor of the Journal and courie

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 To test the virtue of it's sap,
 We'll give the tree generous tap.
 We likewise need to gather frequently by the Liberty pole, and associate heartily with the ancient emblem of our national and personal freedom, that the original and genuine flavor of it's prin- ciples which so fully possessed cur na- tions fathers and defenders may be re- vived in the hearts of their children.
 We are unhappily aware that the de- licious flavor of the stately maple, life freely on demand, has been so fre- |quently diluted by the common, infer- for article that the pure, original flavor is fast vanishing from our knowledge. Hence we resort to the ancient tree to renew acquaintance with the unadulter- ated delicacy, so desirable yet unobtain- able elsewhere.
 It is most fitting that we celebrate the birthday of our national flag, especial ly that the growing generation be taught and impressed by it's signific- ance. Yet earlier lessons in our eoun- try's history should be forcibly present. led, for such important days are none too frequent and justly claim careful observance. Let us often recall the Pill grim fathers, wildly presenting their fine and lofty spirit, their genius for broad humanity, and their liberal inde- |pendence of government. Would that their uncompromising adherence to principle and heroic fortitude might more widely prevail in our land ever firm and irresistible, undiluted by compromise or schemes of policy and |self-interest.
 In adhering to such principles as na- ton, state or city we should escape all danger of class rule, but would rejoice in pure government of the people, by the people, for the people, thus proving an illustrious example of true and un- defiled liberty. Solitary.

AN0THHR AYTRA CTr0N.

There isn't going to be much excuse
 for not going to meeting in the Orange
 (New Jersey) Methodist church. Being
 Methodist the church isn't stuck on
 style, and people can wear rags which
 are not of the gladdest kind. We do not understand that the coatless negligee
 for men and the bare head for women
 are yet officially allowed, as they are in
 Ia Jersey City meeting house, but per-
 haDs there would be no stir, over them If they should appear in the Orange
 meeting house. A great attraction of
 the Orange church will be that both wo- men and men can go there without worrying about the baby. Hereafter the babies can be taken to church and left in room downstairs in the care of vol- |unteer nurses. Many members of the |church have been prevented from at- tending because it would never do to leave the children at home alone. In- stances are recorded of men who through the week were too busy or too tired to prepare the baby's milk and who have been seized with sudden en- thusiasm about o'clock each Sunday |morning to stay at home and nurse the baby. These men have been missed by the regular churchgoers, and when the treason for their absence was explained lplans were, discussed for ameliorating their condition. The young women of the church volunteered to look after the "details of the plan. Sets of blocks, in ldestructible picture books and other things which delight the infant mind were purchased. A room downstairs lhas been fitted up, and there will be lgreat times down stairs, while the men land the women are peacefully worship ping upstairs.
 By and by when going to meeting is nothing but solid comfort and solid fun perhaps we can all find it in our hearts and minds to go.

The trucks in which tHe troops are forwarded are registered to carry eight horses or forty men" That regulation might be enforced dur ing a limited journey. but the men would be packed like herrings in a bar rel. For the transcontinental trip of twenty-five days each truck is fitted with sleeping hunks, which reduces the capacity to about twenty-two, or at the most, twenty-five men. Conse- quently an ordinary troop train does not, and cannot, carry more than four hundred or four hundred and fifty men. All endorsements, of course, impose additional strain upon the commissa- riat

AN INADEQUATE RAILROAD.

Russia is full of trouble. And not one of the least of her troubles is that her much-advertised Siberian railroad can't carry poods and men fast enough. The talk is that the daily consumption of food and fodder for the army in Manchuria is one hundred and fifty thousand poods (about three thousand tons), nearly the whole of which is car- ried from European Russia. For the regular transport of these supplies five commissariat trains must be dispatched every twenty-four hours. Besides these trains daily special is required for the accommodation of staff and other officers, couriers, special service officials, etc., and another for the car riage of mails, passengers and other ordinary traffic. These leave but a very limited marginal capacity for the troop trains proper, of which not more than two or three can be dispatched in

Yesterday circus. To-day workus. To night the first nearing" in the police investigation. We do not discern any burning public interest in the investi- gation. but of course it long ago got beyond being headed off. and New Ha- ven was in for it. It is cheering to notice that it is apparently not going to be like some other investigations that have been had here. There is apparent ly going to be some definiteness to it. Charges are to be properly made and those accused are going to be properly treated. So far so good. For the rest we can only wait and watch, or just wait.
 Apparently we are not going to have two public investigations going on here at the same time. The mayor has re- piled to the earnest gentlemen who seemed to be somewhat displeased with the appointment of Samuel J. Well as Clerk of the Civil Service Board. and he will give careful consideration to any charges and evidence the earnest gem tlemen will prepare and submit to him. This indicates that things are not to be las lively in New Haven as at one time seemed possible, but let us not despair. We may be more unhappy yet.
