M. PICARD HAS HIGH TILE.
Comes to America With Rank Equal
to Ambassador.

The sailing of NJ. Picard, delegate
of the French government to the st.
Louis exposition, from Havre, France,
brought out notable demonstration.
A number Of leading officials were
present on the quay, and the band
of the Garde republic. which sailed
on the same vessel, played the Mar
seilles'' amid great enthusiasm.
The French government attaches un.
usual importance to NJ. Picard's mis-.
sion, as he is one OF the foremost fig
ures of France. He declined to ac-
cept the position of commissioner gen.
eral, and therefore 1t was decided to
in him the title Of dele
gate Of the French government. This
makes NJ. Picard the personal repre-
of President Loubet and the
government, giving him the rank sim,
liar to that of an ambassador. He
will visit Oyster Bay and st. Louis,
and then make a tour Of points be-
tween Buffalo. Boston and New York.
AS a member Of the council Of state.
NJ. Picard practically controls the
railways and tariff systems Of France.

Victor, Col, Aug. 29.-Rev r. S. Le-
land, Arthur Parker and l.. Il. jerks
have been arrested and taken to Jail
in Cripple Creek as the result OF an
attack upon Sheriff Bell and several

Is pastor Of the Methodist church here,

ed his mission, but had hardly finished
before the two men began shooting.
No one was hurt. and the two men
were arrested. Rev Mr. Leland was

GERMANY WANTS HIGH POSTAGE.
Payne's Two Cent Idea Does Not Meet
With Favor.

Postmaster General Payne's sugges-
ton that the time is at hand for
two cent postage between the Unit
ed States, Germany and Great Brit
ain, although the subject Of favorable
comment In the press, is not regard.
ed at the ministry of posts as feasible.
Such a proposal In the international
postal congress would bring out an
instructive interchange OF views, but
the German postal delegates would be
against It's adoption Were Germany
to reach two cent agreement with
the United States 1t would be expect.
ed also by her neighbors. Switzerland,
Belgium. France and Holland. Conse-
quently the question must be consid-
cred by Germany as a proposal for a
one unit postage with all countries.
This would reduce the revenue by
many million marks. reduction OF
income to which the finance ministry
is not likely to consent. The Amster-
dam chamber OF commerce not long
ago asked the Netherlands govern.
ment to arrange a domestic rate OF
postage with Germany, bu. the Dutch
government declined to act in the
matter.

NO MEDIATION At PRESENT.
A Big Russian Victory is the Only
Chance.

II is learned in connection with the
revival Of rumors of mediation that
Emperor Nicholas only recently an
nounced in the most positive terms
that he would not permit peace nego-
tiations even should Port Arthur fall
and General Kurcpatkin be driven
back to Harbin. This fact. well un-
derstood In official circles, has pre-
vented the British government from
taking any steps in the direction of
mediation. 1t is known here that Ger
many understands this attitude of the
emperor as well as Great Britain and
other powers. Therefore the report
from Paris that Emperor William is
prepared to suggest peace is dismiss
ed as groundless, for the present at
least. If General Kuropatkin. how
ever, should win a decisive victory at
Liaoyang, which. in a measure. would
retsore Russian prestige. 1t is believed
here that the restoration Of peace
would be materially facilitated.

NOW FIGHTING ON LAND.
Japs Make a Terrific Attack but Are
Driven Back

Contrary TO the expectations of the
Russians, the Japanese are beginning
to advance along the whole line OF the
Russian eastern front. On the morn
ing of August "a there was rifle
skirmish. and the next day the Jap
anese artillery opened fire. On both
days the firing ceased at dusk. and
the small energy displayed by the
Japanese might have been taken TO
indicate that it was merely demon
stration of a reconnaissance in force.
On the morning of August 25 how
ever. the rifle and artillery fire was
renewed with an energy that left no
doubt that severe battle was intend
ed.
The Japanese pushed their attack
against the Russian right flank and
center concentrating their fire on the
hrst battery of the Third brigade.
Three officers and several men were
wounded early in the day, but the
battery held its position and replied
to the Japanese fire with such marked
effect that General Ivanoff lwho com.
mands the late General Keller's corps)
sent congratulatory message TO its
commander. The Japanese several
times attempted to cross the Tankie
tLink) river, but only few succeed
ed, and these were forced to hide in
the fields of Chinese corn.
Next Day.
The engagement continued through
out the day east and south of the
town. The Japanese directed a strong
cannonading against the Russian po.
sitions, the firing lasting from day
light until l p. m. Hospital trains
are being sent toward the front.
Cossacks Behave Well.
The japanese column advanced un-
der severe bombarament, but was not
checked by the Cossacks, who were
concealed in the fields of Chinese corn.
The Cossacks behaved splendidly,
standing off the Japanese attack for
three hours, but then were forced to
retire in the face of strong Japanese
reinforcements by the shells thrown
by the latter's howitzers. The Rus
sian batteries then opened for the
first time, and the Russians support

lencing the japanese guns.
The Russians lost two officers and
SO men wounded
Russian Casualties over 1000.
Russian casualties are placed at
over 1000 In the report of General Ku-
ropatkin, relative to the fighting near
Liaoyang. The Japanese also sustain.
ed serious losses. while "a of their
guns are reported to have been put
out of action.

Russians Retreat
From Liaoyang

Toxic, Aug. 3l.-The Russians are
concentrating at Liaoyang with the in.
tention Of giving a general battle or of
retiring. They are beaten at Lungtu-
shan and retreated from Anshanshan
and Anping. Anshanshan was the
strongest defense Liaoyang possessed
and its loss renderes defense almost i'm
possible. 1t is beliveved here that Gen.
eral Kuropatkin can not now avoid a
fight and a crushing defeat.
A dispatch received by the London
Daily Express says that the army has
commenced to retire from Liaoy ang on
Mukden. Since Sunday huge trains of
transports have been going forth and
columns Of men are ON the march.
Liaoyang lies 100 low for defense. All
the food stores are being withdrawn.
A considerable section of the army hap
been left in Liaoyang in positions to
fight rear guard battle.
1t is reported that the Japanese have
destroyed the railroad bridges north Of
Liaoyang. 1t is reported that the Rus.
sian army has effected its retirement
with transports and artillery on Liao.
yang and is now in position awaiting
the advancing Japanese.
The prorgess of the latter has been
rapid and determined, sparing of no
sacrifice.
In the attack on the Siaolindzy posi-.
tion one Japanese bttalion lost all of
it, officers. The retirement of the Rus
iasn transports Of four corps across the
plan while the artillery and troops in
the rear held off the Japanese afforded
a magnificent spectacle. The Russians
lost 300 in killed or wounded during
the retreat from Anshanshan. The
Japanese made forced march by
night, overtaking the Russians at day.
light.
General Routkovsky was killed by
the explosion Of shell.

JEFFRIES STILL CHAMPION.
Monroe Not in It-A Very Poor Ex-
cuse.

San Francisco.-Like the veriest
amateur in the prize ring, Jack Mum
roe of Butte, Mont, went down and
out before Champion James j. Jeffries
Friday night in the second round. The
man from the mining district made
such an extremely sorry showing that
the great throng in Mechanics pavil-
ion roundly hooted him as he protest
ed to Referee Graney against the de-
cision that had been given in favor
of the champion. The two giants had
not been in the ring two minutes when
it was foreseen that the aspirations Of
Munroe would be quickly disposed Of.
The gross receipts of the Jeffries-
Monroe fight were $21. 800, of which
Jeffries received $9,156 and Munroe
$6.l04. the remainder going to the
promoters of the contest.
All who witnessed the one sided en-
counter agree that the champion is
in class by himself, and that no other
living pugilist is likely to dispute his
right to the title. Throughout the
round and As seconds that the fight
lasted Jeffries showed gum and smil-
ed. He was perfectly calm and en-
tirely at his ease.
Munroe was pale, and evidently ner-
vous. Never for a moment did he
stand the slightest chance to win, but
he was game and determined to fight
to the end. Had not Referee Graney
interceded as Jeffries was preparing
to land the decisive blow the bout
might have ended in a tragedy.
Munroe finds consolation in the be-
lief that he went as far with Jeffries
as anyone could.
The champion anticipated a severe
battle, and expressed himself as sur
prised that his opponent made so poor
showing. While disappointed at the
brevity Of the fight. which some paid
500 to see, sporting men admit that
1t was a genuine battle for supremacy
and that the best man won.

PENSION LIST SHRINKING.
For the Nation-Northwest Shows In

The annual report Of Pension Com.

ernment has dealt literally with pen

large increase In the number OF pen
sions and In the amounts OF money
paid. In Oregon, where there were
GIT pensioners In 1903. drawing pen.

In Idaho there has been an increase

ing 1867 ,007 in 1904.
The increase In the number OF pen.
sioners In the northwestern states Is
stated to be largely due to the al.
lowance Of a large number of Indian

diers or relatives of those who served
in the Spanish war.
The report shows that during the
year the cost OF maintaining the pen

been $144.741.7s7. The appropriation
for this purpose was $146.461 ,296. leav.

HILL RETIREs FROM POLITICS.
David q. Names Jan. I Next as the
Date for Vacation,

Albany. N. Y, Aug. 31.-David B.
Hill, in conversation with friends here
announced that he intends to retire
from politics January 1 next and
that. no matter what the result Of the
coming campaign may be in the state
or nation, he will relinquish the lead.
ership of the democratic party in l>ew
York. He aided that in the event OF
democratic success this fall he wou..
not accept any position under the ma
tional or state democratic administra-
tion or again become a candidate for
election to any Office whatever.
Former Senator Hill made these
statements on the eve of his birthday
anniversary. He was born August 29
1S43.
In partial explanation he said that
he had intended to take such action a
year ago today. but was persuaded by
some close personal friends to defer
doing SO until after the presidential
election.
Having been engaged in active poll
tics since his youth, and having served
as city attorney. alderman and mayor
Of Elmira, member Of the legislature.
lieutenant governor, governor for sew
en- years and United States senator for
six years, he feels that he has been
sufficiently honored by his party, and
that he has rendered political service
during the period of years sufficient
to entitle him to be relieved of fur.
ther active political effort.
He desires to devote more time to
his personal affairs and professional
duties.
Mr.. Hill will continue his work in
the present campaign. and to his
friends said that he would always
maintain his interest in democratic
success, but only as private citizen.

STEAM TURBINE A SUCCESS.
Naval Engineers Pleased With Exam
ination of Device.


A board of naval engineering ex-
perts has just completed a thorough
examination of the Turbina. one of
the latest developments of the steam
turbine as applied to vessels. The re-
suits of the inspection will be made
known in detail in report on the
subject Of turbine power which the
board viii prepare, but it may be said
the performance Of the turbine was re-
garded as highly satisfactory, in the
complete absence of vibration and in
the comfort of the crew. Further
more, almost no more repairs are nee
essary to the engines, there being no
friction except in few bearings.
There is no pounding and thudding
of engines, nothing but a soft rush
of steam through the pipes, SO that
noise is suppressed. valuable con-
sideration in naval combats. The en-
gine room force is largely reduced.
Additional coal carrying capacity is
gained by the reduction Of the weight
of the engines, and the center Of grav-
ity is lowered through the motors be-
ing placed just above the keel. Now
that a practicable reversing device
has been found and installed in this
boat, the naval engineers are prepar-
ed to press forward the completion Of
their plans for the installation OF the
new turbines on their engines.
The Turbina was built in England,
and was originally intended for coast
ing. but she crossed the Atlantic un-
der her own steam and without stop
ming
