LATEST WAR NEWS is MOSTLY

London. April 25.-The far eastern
dispatches this morning are chiefly
on reports end speculations concerning
Japanese landings and the plan of
campaign. The Daily Telegraph's To-
kio correspondent says the present de-
lay is more apparent than real. both
as regards field and naval operations.
The japanese, according to the cores
rondent. are acting prudently and Will
not be hurried. They realize that GER
tain movements must precede the next
coup by land and sea, and they are
awaiting both favorable weather and
occasion. and from Port Arthur 10
Vladivostok are on the alert.
Announcing the notification that mil
itary attaches will be permitted to take
the field, the correspondent remarks
that the aJpanese, in matters of equip
ment, etc, are treating the foreign at
taches and correspondents like princes.

Rumor Of Japanese Defeat.

New York, April 24.-St. Petersburg
heard an unconfirmed report yesterday
which emanated in Port Arthur, that
1000 Japanese has been slain In bat
tie along the Yalu. Paris, too, received
hint that there had been great
Russian victory, but in neither city
was there any information to add to
the report.
The ST. Petersburg dispatch said:
A rumor is current in this city that
the Japanese sustained heavy loss
while attempting landing near the
mouth of the Yalu river.
According to the report, which Is
said to be based upon a private tele-
gram from Port Arthur, the Japanese
lost 1000 men.
The story is not confirmable and is
discredited in official quarters. the AS
socated Press being authoritatively
informed that the government has no
advices supporting the rumor.
The Springfield herald., 1904-04-29
ST. Petersburg Reports.

St Petersburg, April 24.-Some-
thing OF a sensation was caused here
this afternoon by a report spread far
and wide that the Chinese minister.
Hoo Wei Teh, was packing up prepar-
atory to departing from st. Petersburg
and visions of immediate war were
conjured up.
The Associated Press Investigated
the rumor and ascertained that the
only foundation for 1t was the fact
that the minister has taken a sum-
mer cottage at Gatschina. thirty miles
from St. Petersburg, for which place
he will shortly leave the capital.
The Russians have placed guns in
positions covering the crossings OF the
Yalu river. While General Kuropatkin
desires that the Japanese shall enter
Manchuria he purposes that they shall
pay as dearly as possible for the priv
ilege, but without precipitating gen
eral engagement.
Major General Kashtalinsky is anx-
ious to engage the enemy and begged
General Kuropatkin for permission to
do SO. but the commander in chief
strictly forbade even small skirmishes
where it was possible to avoid them.
1t is understood that General Kuro-
patkin intends to deliver the decisive
battle himself. Meantime the cavalry
and artillery at the front are engaged
in constant drill and reconnoissances.
In spite of the reports from Seoul
and Toxic that the Russians are mass
ing $4,000 men to resist the Japanese
crossing of the Yalu river. 1t can be
asserted with great positiveness that
an obstinate obstruction OF the en-
emy's crossing is no part OF General
Kuropatkin's tactics. The Russians
intend that the Japanese shall have
the river behind them before giving
battle in force.

Panama Canal Bill Passed.

Tho Panama canal bill was taken up
III the Senate April 18th and passed.
Mr.. Hale, upon the suggestion OF
Messrs. Aldrich and Hopkins, withdrew
his amendment requiring that men,
supplies, ETC., be shipped to the 18TH
mus in American vessels.
MIR. Spooner spoke in favor of the
amendment proposed by Mr. Morgan,
that the pardoning power rests in the
governor instead of in the commission.
He moved also that new section be
added, providing that all salaries or
other compensation fixed by the COM
mission shall be subject to the approval
of the President.
The amendment was adopted, as well
as one requiring more rigid accounting
to the President by members of the
commission.
Mr. Bacon offered an amendment at
the end of the first section of the bill.
providing that "the payment Of $10.-
100000 to Panama provided for in ar
ticle IA of the treaty shall be made in
lieu of the indefinite appropriation
made in the third section of the act
of June %, 1902, and is hereby appro-
priated."
The amendment was adopted after an
explanation that this would clear away
all doubt as to the authority to make
the payment.
Mr. Morgan made a final speech
against the bill. and when he ceased
speaking at 1926 p. M, in less than a
minute afterward the bill was passed.
There was no division.

Hot Alaska Discussion.

During the consideration of the
army appropriation bill in the Senate
the discussion turned on the need OF
wagon roads in Alaska. Mr.. Nelson
saying that there was not single
wagon road in that territory and Mr.
Teller asserting that II 100000 could
be spent in the building OF such roads
there would be rich return in the in
crease of gold production.
Messrs. Proctor and Quarles said
that it had been impossible to secure
more than s25,00O from the House
conferees.
Mr. Nelson predicted that within
the next generation Alaska would
have a population of million. he
related many details of his observa-
tions in Alaska while visiting the
country as a member of the Senate
committee and aroused much interest
as he told of its resources. the hard
ships to which the settlers are sub
jected and the little that had been
done for the people. He grew espe-
cially Jealous in his presentation of
the production of precious metals.
furs, ETC., and his zeal in this con-
nection was scarcely exceeded by the
Indignation he exhibited as he de-
picted the niggardliness of the govern
ment in dealing with the Alaskans.
At last. completely forgetting himself,
he exclaimed:
"All this they have done, Mr.. Presi-
dent, and in return We have not done
damn thing for them" The state
ment was surprise to all present.
apparently as much to the speaker as
to his audience. There seldom has
been as spontaneous an outburst OF
laughter in the Senate as the exclama-
ton provoked. Mr.. Nelson Joined in
the merriment though with many
evidences of embarrassment. His
only apology was the remark that

Ilew Vice Admiral.

St. Petersburg, April 24.-During his
audience with the Emperor, Vice Ad-
miral Skrydloff, commander OF the ma
val forces in the far Sast. requested
that squadron commander be as
signed to Port Arthur as he may find
1t necessary to temporarily Join the
Vladivostok division of the Pacific
squadron. The Emperor consented
but an officer has not yet been chosen.
AS a mark of confidence and in or
der that his rank may be in keeping
with the size of his fleet, the Emperor
has determined to promote Rear Ad-
miral Rojestvensky, recently appointed
to the command of the Baltic feet, to
be a vice admiral.

LATEST NEWS FROM WASHINGTON
Proposed Senate Building.

81 think this is an extravaganza
which surpasses everything l have
ever seen offered in this Senate.
With these strong words Senator
Berry OF Arkansas denounced the
proposition before the Senate to appro-
pirate s3,OO0,O00 for an Office building
and site on capitol hill for the bene-
fit of senators. The Arkansas senator
dealt the project some powerful blows
and succeeded In postponinig a vote.
1t Is said there is no doubt about tine
passage of the amendment carrying
the appropriation which the senate
committee has put into the sundry
civil bill. Mr.. Berry stated 1t to be
the ultimate intention of the Senate
to spend nearly $5,O00,oO0 on TN
building. the pending appropriation
being merely a starter. This he hgur
ed would be $4,000 per senator
Mr.. Bailey supported the amend
ment. He said that Mr.. Berry's com
ment as to the cost of the proposed
building might be applied TO the capt
toll. That building had been erected
for the Congress as a whole. and he
considered the best none too good in
the way of accommodations. He did
not want oriental magnihcence. but he
did want splendid buildings. Sena-
tors in Washington should not live In
huts nor stop at wagon yards; nor
should they have their offices in mac
cessible portions Of the capitol.
Mr.. Teller opposed the East front ex-
tension, but advocated the new build
ing. saying that as the country grows,
demands on the capitol will grow.
He expressed the opinion that the time
would come when it would be necessa-
ry to provide Accommodations for SEN
ators from Alaska and Porto RICO.
and gave voice to the hope that 1t
might be necessary to make room FOR
senators from what is now the Domi-
niop of Canada
