HEAVY JAPANESE LOSSES.
Reports Concerning Recent Fighting at
Port Arthur

Reports Concerning Recent Fighting at
Port Arthur.
Russians residing at Chefoo claim to have
received information that the japanese
losses in the last assault on Port Arthur,
which began September 10. were 1000
A Chinese who left the fortress September
DC saws that the Russian losses were be-
tween 500 and 600.
This Chinaman says that the Japanese
were unable to remain in the three sup
Elementary forts which they captured and
that they retired at o'clock on the after
noon Of September %. after enduring sew
eral days of tremendous firing from the
inner forts.
He adds that the Russians attempted to
bury the dead on both sides at night be-
cause the decomposing bodies seriously
menaced the health of the garrison.
The russians allege that it Is the DELHI
crate policy of the Japanese to undermine
the health of the Russian troops by means
of the doors from the decomposing bodies,
and that for this reason they fire on the
burial parties.
One Chinese who was a member of the
burial party says the Japanese fired when
he and other Chinese attempted to bury
the dead. He adds that when the wind
carries the doors toward the Japanese the
latter retire.
Chinese say that the most severe at
tacks were made on the supplementary
forts of the Itz and Anshu mountain forts
The Russians had undermined the ground
and several hundred Japanese were blown
up on September %. Reports received
from the MiaOtao Islands mention terri
fic report which shook the houses there
on that date.
The Russian ships, says the report, took
no part in the battle. From thirty to
fifty shells fell daily In the Chinese new
town One shell tore the rudder from a
torpedo boat destroyer.

an Increase in the death rate of nearly
per cent.
The figures for the first three weeks of

the first four weeks of October Some weeks
last summer the death rate rose high
as 30 per cent, and the average for this
year greatly exceeds that of last
In a measure the reporting of the in

KAISER GOES SOUTH.
Fears of Cancer Are Again Revived at
Berlin

A cablegram from Berlin last night saws.
Renewed apprehension has been aroused in
court circles over the order which the kaiser
mas received from his physicians to take a
Mediterranean cruise this winter for the
sake of his health 1t is feared that a re-
crudesence of the malady which forced him
to undergo a series of operations year
ago is threatened. So far as outward an
pearances go the emperor appears to be in
the best of health, but since his throat was
operated upon his voice has never lost COM
pletely certain huskiness
When a year ago the operation for the
removal of polypus from the kaiser's
throat was performed vigorous denial was
MADE that he was suffering from any ma
hgnant disease, and every effort was made
at Berlin to belittle the matter The SIMS
Ter Tact Will not down, however that his
rather, mother and uncle all died of cancer
AT the time the last operation was per-
formed DR. Beaman Douglass one OF the
leading specialists in diseases of the throat
IN this country, in an interview on Emperor
Nlllam case, made this observation.
which is doubly significant now in view of
the cable report from Berlin:
Should the kaiser recover fully from bis
present illness it would not be surprising
IL ne We're 10 be attacked again within a
year ana to suffer thereafter as his father
did '''

The Salt Lake Company Now Has
Thirteen Producing Wells
In Operation.
AND THE DAILY PRODUCTION
Is One Hundred Barrels - An lmpOr.
tant lsmusiau Project Manager of
S, l.. Company Interested.

VIII G. Higgins, editor Of the Salt
Lake Mining Review, who has been
spending months vacation on the
Pacific coast, recently visited the oil
fields In the vicinity Of Los Angeles
and has written the following concern
ing the operations of the salt Lake oil
company, In which number OF well
known mining and business men Of this
city are interested
About half way between Los Angeles
and Santa Monica are the oil wells
owned by the Salt Lake oil company,
heavily interested In which are Hon.
j. d. Wood Hon. W. s. Mccormick
and j. Il. Bamberger, Of Salt Lake.
The company now has about 10 pro-
ducing wells on its tract each having
a daily capacity Of 100 barrels and over.
The wells are but a short distance from
the interurban line of the Los Angeles
Pacific Railroad company, which is
electrically operated, ana the oil ia
piped to tanks on this road The rail-
road company uses oil as fuel In the
generation of electric power, and buys
several hundred barrels Of oil daily
from the Salt Lake company at a fig
ure that leaves a handsome margin of
profit to the association.
Everything Is on an oil basis in
southern California, and oil Is used for
fuel in almost all cases where coal was
formerly utilized. The railroads use It,
as oil is cheaper more effective from
an economical point Of view, and used
under boilers II causes but little smoke
and emlts no cinders. II Is also ex-
tensiyely used In the generation OF
electricity, and Is beginning to be uti-
lized in the successful smelling of ores.
The main thoroughfares outside OF
the city limits Of Los Angeles, and In
many suburban towns, are sprinkled
with oil to very good advantage. The
first heavy sprinkilng costs about $500
to the mile but, after the first year
the cost is but trihing, as one good
sprinkling will last for several years,
and the roads are In splendid condi-
ton.
Just now a proposition OF consider
able importance Is I'm contemplation In
connection with the oil industry Of
southern California. The project has in
view the establishment OF fleet OF oil
tank steamers to ply between some
port convenient to Santa Barbara and
the lsthmus OF Panama, and the con-
struction Of pipeline across the 18TH
mus for the transportation of oil to
eastern and foreign marks, w. G.
Price, manager Of the Salt Lake oil
company, Is indirectly interested in this
proposed enterprise.

IRRIGATION WORK ON
GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.

The work OF the Geological survey in
carrying out the provisions Of the ma
tlonal irrigation act has brought IL to
the fore as one Of the great executive
departments of the government, with
government irrigation fund which
will be by the end of the present fiscal
year In the nelghborhood of s25, 100000.
This work must be recognized as one
Of the very large internal Improvements
Of the country. Although irrigation OPP
erations are confined largely to the i6
arid and semi-arId western states, the
eastern part Of the country must
be more or less interested for several
reasons. Men are constantly moving
westward looking for new homes whore
they can earn livelihood or become
land owners while business men are
interested In seeing n development of
the west which will afford them wider
home markets for their manufactured
products The changing OF the western
deserts into tens Of thousands of new
and productive small farms will not
only relieve some Of the overcrowded
sections " the east but win stimulate
business of all descriptions, just as the
opening Of the great Mississippi Valley
provided a market for the American
manufactures such, as Secretary Wiz
son says, as can be found in no other
part of the world,
Already the Geological Survey has
designated some Is large irrigation
projects throughout the west where
huge impounding dams and bitches
which Will be as large as rivers are to
be constructed. Work is already COM
menced on some Of these and the next
two or three years viii see the national
irrigation policy in fun operation.
The S25. 100000, now practically avail
able for Irrigation construction, Is by
no means the limit Of this work since
the fund Is constantly growing through
the sales Of western public lands, and
as soon as the first irrigation work Is
completed the cost of It's construction
will begin 10 come back into the fund
for use on some other project Ii Is
not intended that the government shall
give away the irrigation works. What
government land is placed under lr-
rigatlon will be given the homesteader
free. conditional only upon his residence
| and cultivation; but the { Of put
ting the water on the land.--the con-
struction Of the dam and the main
dtches-will be borne by the settler.
| II is this business-lilSe feature Of the
irrigation act which has found for IL
| such support among the business men
| OF the country.
