Chefoo, July $3.50 p. m.-What
should prove a decisive naval engage
ment was in progress at one o'clock
this afternoon midway between Chefoo
and Port Arthur.
The steamer Chefoo, which has ar
rived here passed within fifteen miles
of the Japanese fleet, consisting of two
battleships and five cruisers, all ac-
lively engaged. The Russian fleet was
not seen, but the distance of the Jap
anese from land precludes the possi-
bility of any attack on the land bat
teries. The captain of the Chefoo
says he heard a terrific explosion, but
was unable to discern whether Jap
anese or a Russian ship was affected.
The battle is held here to confirm
the Chinese report that only four of
the larger Russian warships were at
Port Arthur last night.

Mr.. SIMMONS VIEWS
BY FRED Il. MERRITT.

Washington, d. c., July 1.-Senator
Simmons, who is here on his way to
st. Louis. predicts the nomination of
Judge Parker by the convention next
week on an early ballot, not later than
the third. His second choice for a
winner is Senator German. The
Marylander's chances have grown
very much stronger within the past
few weeks. Mr. Simmons thinks.
''In fact. | am not sure that in sofae
respects Gormon would not be the
stronger candidate of the two. His
record is known, especially on the
tariff. On that question which, after
ALL is to be the economic issue of the
campaign, the business interests of the
country are perfectly willing to trust
Mr.. German. Also in the personal
issue, Mr.. Gorman's friends have no
fear of a comparison of him and his
record with Roosevelt and Roosevelt
Ism.
But, as / say, Parker is my first
choice, as he is the choice Of the peo-
pie of my State, continued Mr.. Sim
mons "And I believe he will be
nominated at st. Louis. The South is
solid for him and he will get the vote
of New York, Connecticut, Indiana
and New Jersey"
What of Cleveland.
"How about Cleveland?"
81 don't think s1ere is any danger
of his nomination. though great eff
fort in that direction is being made
in some quarters.
''Wouldn't the South vote for him %
'If nominated, yes. The adoption
of the negro suffrage plank in the
Chicago platform makes that certain.
They would vote for any Democrat
and almost any Republican i'm prefer
ence to Roosevelt. The President
made a great mistake when he forced
the instruction of that plank in the
platform. It will make the South
even more solid against him if that
were possible. and win him no
friends elsewhere"
Don't you think Cleveland's nomi-
nation would make more certain the
CARRYING of New York by the Demo-
Gratis than would the nomination of
Judge Parker?"
az doubt it. And even if it did it
would render very uncertain our car
rying the States of Arkansas, Missouri
and Kentucky, where the Bryan senti-
ment is still very strong. If we lose
those, the winning of New York will
avail us nothing"

mense majority for Glenn and the
