JAPANESE STILL
IN PURSUIT
Russians Await Attack Near
Simucheng.
KURoPATKINs BASE IS STRONGER

Fight at Dalin Hill Lasted Two Whole
Days, and Russians Were Successive-
ly Forced From Three Positions-De-
cisive Battle Soon.
Haicheng, June 20.-The war picture
has quickly changed, owing to General
Kuroki's movements A heavy en-
gagement is expected hourly near the
village Of Simoucheng, fifteen miles
south southeast of Haicheng and an
equal distance due east of the railway.
The Japanese have now passed Da-
lin hill and are twenty miles south Of
the Russian position.
The Russian regiments are camped
on high ground. Signal fires from the
hill tops are constantly faring, lighting
up the bivouacs and the horse lines of
the cavalry regiments. Long trains of
soldiers are constantly passing and re-
passing. The Russian troops are in
excellent condition.
The losses in the Dalin hill fight are
not yet known Eighty wounded have
arrived here, and hospital train with
200 passed, going to Liaoyang.
The fighting lasted the whole Of June
26 and p, and the japanese successive
~ pushed the Russians from three
positions, occupying them with artil-
lery as the defenders retired.
Wounded Russians recounting the
two days fight say that the Japanese
again demonstrated their reliance on
their artillery and that they were
greatly superior, both in number OF
men and in guns. On the second day
Of the fight they brought up a heavy
battery, which silenced the lighter Rus
sian guns and caused severe loss. The
Japanese artillery practice, however
was inaccurate. and, as is usual, they
several times shelled empty positions
or shot over the Russian columns.
Fight Opened at Dawn.
The fight started at dawn ten miles
| southwest of Dalin hill. A Russian
rifle brigade held the position unit
noon in the face of a heavy artillery
fire. but the Russians were finally out
fanked by infantry and cavalry, th'
Japanese actually getting a field bat
terry in the rear Of the Russian posi-
ton. Then the brigade fell back.
The Dalin hill fight continued from .
o'clock until dark.
The Japanese worked furiously al
night long and emplaced two batteries
on the vacated Russian position.
The fighting was resumed at 3 a. m
on June %. The Russians silenced th'
two japanese batteries, but the Japa
nese brought up a train of big guni
and silenced the lighter Russian artil
lery, which was again running out o
ammunition, and the Russians wer
\ once more forced to retire. The Japa
nese cavalry and infantry, threatening
to surround the Russian position, fore
ed a general retreat.

Mr., D0BSDN DENIES INTERVIEW
Did Not Say That Some One is Trying
70 "RIeed" His Company.

James Dobson, of Philadelphia, pres-
ident of the Wilmington Gas and Elec1
trio Company, denies the story which
appeared I'm a Philadelphia Sunday
newspaper to the effect that he had
said that someone was trying TO
''bleed" his company in connection with
the Otto Gas Engine Works gas Incl
dent.
Mr.. Dobson stated yesterday that he
used no such language IN the inter-
view. He related that he did say, in
response to a question by the Philadel-
phia reporter, that he did not believe
Mr.. Addicks was interested in the pres
ent gas controversy. Then the report
er advanced the proposition that some
body must be hack Of the attitude OF
the Otto Gas Engine Works. To this
Mr. Dobson-as he explained yester-
day-replied that perhaps there might
be, but he knew nothing more than
what he had seen In the newspapers
He added that his company was per-
fectly willing to furnish gas to the OF
to Gas Engine Works at the same
price paid by other customers.

much 20 do with newsboys know that
this is likely to be the fact.

convincing or altogether honest. The
fact IS that the action OF the National
Committee did not please tho conven-
tion 1t Is also a fact that the com-
mittec on Credentials would have over
turned the decision OF the National
Committee had not great pressure been
brought to bear.
c. r. Layton remarked after the con-
ventlon that TIE moral support OF the
convention was with the Regulars but
that practical politics dictated the
recognition OF Addicks. In tho commit-
Zee ON credentials It was Impossible :or
members orposed TO Addicks to get a
hearing; the chair refused 70 recognize
them. and the verdict prepared In ad-
vance was jammed through.
a prominent Western Senator said
that the determination to scat Addicks
ana his colleagues was an outrage, but
declared that it would not do to over
surn the decision Of the National Com
mittee. How It Nas done IS well ex-
pressed in an illustration given by
Magistrate Bradley. He says that Il
was like the decision OF a judge who
was also a farmer. A case was before
him and he was anxious TO get in his
hay. when the lawyer began a lonl
argument the judge remarked PRO
ceed gentlemen; when you get through
you WIN find my decision under thai
book there"
That describes the way the verdic
was reached. We said weeks ago tha
TO recognize Addioks Tor the few votes
ne controls would lose to the nationa
party more than that number Of votes
And we haven't changed our opinion
AS matter Of simple policy it was Z
blunder-a blunder almost equal to &

THE FIRST TRICK.

We congratulate the Sand Filtration
Company on its victory. The court de-
crees that the Mayor must sign the
contract made by the old water board
with the nlter company. But that does
not mean that the municipality must
pay out S65.oo0 Not by a jug fulli The
Mayor It seems has no option; no mat
ter how infamous a contract may be
entered into by one OF the departments
he is required TO place his name to It.,
and thus seem to lend his sanction TO
IL. Il is the law. and Mayor Bird is a
law-abldlng man.
But having signed It, he and other
officers Of the city can prepare to pro-
tect the rights Of the municipality
for the municipality has rights, even
against the sand Filtration Company.
Ere this money can be collected 1t is
possible to have a jury pass upon il
and assess the damages, and we have
the utmost faith that a Wilmington
jury win be impartial
But we wish to utter word OF
prophecy: There win be a proposition
TO cancel this old contract IN considera-
tion for a new one which win allow the
successors Of the sand Filtration Com
pany TO build the new system. Jus
watch the trend Of events and see how
we can discount the future When tha
proposition comes up we may learI
something further about the persuasive
powers Of this wonderful filter com
pany.

The report on the condition Of the
county finances by the Levy Court and
the placing OF the county tax rate VI
hfty cents on the hundred dollars shows
that by an honest and careful admins
tration of the county's business an le-
eitimate expenses may be met without
burdening the people. 1t also shows
that In selecting the members Of this
body an that IS necessary Is TO choose
men who are honest and intelligent.
This should be an object lesson to the
people. Under the old regime the tax
rate was eighty cents on the hundred
with an empty treasury. Now the rate
is to be fifty cents, with Si5o,ooo In the
treasury. Could anything be more olo-
ouent than that simple statement OF
fact?
AS there IS a new court to be elected,
the taxpayers have an Impressive les-
son. It is possible to elect court that
win give us an sO-cent rate or a body
which win give us a 5o-cent rate. II you
