may retire northward to meet his re-
infcrcements.'
The tone in both public and official
circles has greatly improved. The re-
port that the Port Arthur squadron has
successfully put to sea and that no
ships have actually been sunk seems to
have removed the despondency and de-
Nelopments on land and sea are look
e! forward to with increased cheer
fulress. Confidence is manifested in
the influence the navy will have upon
tha csmpaign. Many people are in
ci.nec to attribute the Japanese pre-
cipitancy to get at Kuropatkin to the
fact that squadron at large threatens
the Japanese army's sea communities
tions. Srecial dispatches say 1t was
Major General Mistchenko's division
which had been engaged in constant
fighting in the vicinity Of the mountain
passes over which the japanese are
advancing. One dispatch says the
country is almost impossible, MIST
chenko retiring only when the enemy
appeared in overwhelming numbers.
The correspondent considers it doubt
ful whether Kuroki will advance all
three columns as this would disunite
his forces. He is more likely to push
home his attack from Siuyen upon
Tatchekiao, exclusive of Oku. The cor
respondent figures that Kuroki has TO-
600 troops, the Japanese commander
being in personal command of $4,000
men at nalien pass.
Kuropatkin has issued an army order
insisting on the kindest and most hu-
man treatment of Japanese prisoners
and wounded, notwithstanding the
tales of atrocities committed by the
Japanese. The order directs that the
same respect and honors be paid to Jap
prisoners and wounded as if they were
Russians.

TURKEY ASKS WHY
The Porte Somewhat Alarmed Over
the American Naval Program in the
Mediterranean.

Washington, June 29.-Chekib Bey,
Turkish minister at Washington, has
had a long conference with Assistant
Secretary of State Loomis on subject
which neither OF them care to discuss.
1t is believed however, to be connected
with a projected visit OF the United
States naval fleet in Mediterranean
waters to some Turkish parts about
the time Minister Leishman returns to
Constantinople from France and is
ready to resume his negotiations with
the porte, for further recognition OF
American interests in Turkey. 1t is
certain the Turkish government has
taken notice of the American naval
program and it Is assumed that GER
tain inquiries are being made as to its
purpose.

marine boat Delfin sank at her moor
ings in Neva off the Baltic si1ipbuilding
yard at II o'clock this morning, with
the loss Of Officer Lieut. Choicakon
and twenty men men, The accident
was due partly to the excessive num-
ber of the crew, mostly inexperienced
men, and chiefly to the unfortunate
attempt of a man to escape while his
comrades were screwing down the
man-hole. The Delfin was afterwards
raised.
The officers and men were detailed
for submarine instruction and had as
sembled at Baltic yard. Three officers
decided to go down in the Delfin, altlIo
her captain was not present. A score
of novices were anxious to 60 with the
three officers. The Delfin's nominal
capacity is ten men. instead of which
thirty-two entered the boat, bringing
her manhole in dangerous proximity
to the river level. Just then tug pass
ed sending heavy wash against the
boat. AS soon as the water splashed
into the submarine boats interior it
created panic among the novices as
one of them tried to get out of the man
hole, which older hands were screwing
down preparatory to descent. the sub-
merging apartment having already
been opened. The water rushed in and
as the submerged vessel sank like
stone the officers and some of the men
were saved by being blow.up thru the
manhole by the rush Of escaping air.
Lieut.. Elagsuin. who was one Of the
officers saved said to the Associated
Press: THE tragedy was like q dream.

ing that the nominee of the democratic
convention at st. Louis will be Gen.
Nelson A. Miles, and several do not
hesitate to declare that they hope he
will not be the nominee. The old SOL
diers are particularly taken with the
notion that Miles would be a strong
candidate. Others are insisting that
Grover Cleveland will be the nominee
of the convention. But few of the
democrats believe that It will be Par
ker and only rarely is one found who
will say anything In favor of Hearst.
The Hearst literary bureau which had
headquarters in a republican news
paper office in this city and which was
worked hard during the early part of

will not turn up at st. Louis. Only a

case has largely died out here and
nobody cares very much about4 II.
since the desperate attempt to prevent
a trial of Dennison has convinced
nearly everyone that all that has been
told about him and his pals in lows
is true.
The scheme to have the state labor
bureaus of the western states con-
duct a free employment agency for
harvest hands has already proved a
willing workers have been sent from
Iowa into Kansas thru the agency of
the state labor bureau. Complaint has
often been made that the labor bu-
reaus are useless in giving assistance
to the largest body of workers in the
agricultural states, the harvest hands:
but it is being demonstrated this year
that these departments are useful to
the farmers.
The statement is still being retailed
to Iowa readers that the Cummins
resolutions were voted down in the
Iowa delegation caucus at Chicago by
a vote of % to 5. This statement is
not true. No man can name twenty
delegates who voted to table the reso-
lutions.
Des Moines has another interesting
