Japs Control the Railroad.

Mukden, August 9.-The Japanese are using the shan Hai Kwang-Yinkow rail- road for provisioning the army and mob ilzng troops for an attack on Sinmintun, about 90 miles west of Mukden.
 From Koupangtz, about 70 miles south west of Sin Min Tun, a branch line con- meets with Yinkow which IS about 5S miles southwest of Koupangtse.
 A Russian correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press in a despatch from Ia Tche Kiao about a month ago. said it was be- lieyed that the Shan Hai Kwang railroad was then under the control of the Ja- panese with the consent of China
 As early as March 20 last the Shan Hai Kwang correspondent of the London Mail asserted that the Chinese had received of ficial authorization to turn over the plant of the railroad to the Japanese. The Ja- panese are in control cf the Gulf of Liao Tung. and If the statement in the des- patch from Mukden proves to be correct. it would indicate that they are landing troops at Shan Hai Kwang. the southern terminus of the railroad and transporting them to Sin Min Tun. The strategic im- portanee of the possession of the railroad which was sought by the Russians early In the war is apparent.

BALTIC FLEET TO
 LEAVE ON AUG. 16
WILL CONSIST OF SIXTY VESSELS. INCLUDING EIGHT EMPHASIZES AND NINE cRUIsERs-IT WILL TAKE SIXTY DAYS.

Berlin, August 9.-The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Lokal Anzeiger says that Rear Admiral Rojestvensky, com mander of the Baltic fleet, has hoisted his flag on the battleship Souvaroff and that the fleet, which, consisting of sixty yes sels, including eight battleships and nine cruisers, will leave in the immediate fu- ture. probably on August 16.
 The correspondent says it is hoped that the fleet will reach it's destination within sixty days. He points out that the auxil- iary cruiser Don has already sailed with a six-weeks' supply of coal for the whole squadron. besides 500 cattle and other pro- visions, and that two other vessels laden with coal will soon sail.
 The correspondent says it is reckoned that the arrival of the Baltic fleet in the far east will turn the scales rapidly and end the war should Port Arthur still re- main uncaptured.

FARLEY IS BUSY
 IN DISTRICT NO. 19
NEITHER THE OPERATORS NOR MINERS CAN FoRETELL OUT COME OF THE CONFERENCE WHICH IS NOW IN PROGRESS.

Knoxville. August s-The joint confer ence of miners and operators of the Uni ted Mine Workers. district 19 assembled here today. About 100 miners are present and 35 operators. representing every sub division in the d.urict w B. Wilson, s-.- tlonal secretary, of Indianapolis. and w. R. Fairley, national board member of Pratt City, are with the miners.
 Operators widely differ as to the prob- able result of the conference While a large number profess to believe that the present wage scale, adopted A year ago, will be continued after September l, many others are of the opinion that a strike may be ordered if the scale Is not in- creased as demanded by the miners. Ma ti0nal Secretary Wilson stated today that we may lock horns," but he hoped this could be avoided. He is of the opinion the conditions demand an immediate scale for the miners of this section. The conference may continue for several days Should 1t fail to reach an agree ment a general strike in the district is anticipated. Many operators are said to have charged that if strike Is ordered they will operate their mines with non- union men.

 NAVAL EXPENDITURES
Lord Selborne Says Battleships Are Necessary for Prestige on
 the Sea.

London, August 9.-Replying to criticism of the naval expenditures in the house of lords today Lord Selborne. first lord of the admiralty. defended the outlay He said it was more important now than ever that British battleships should be of the largest and best type.
 Referring to submarine boats, Lord Sel- borne said their value for defensive pur- poses had been abundantly proved He did not believe submarine boats had reached ths limit of improvement or usefulness. rbe lessons from the war in the far east were the importance of the personnel, the Les, sity for having a margin of strength. and the fact that without batteships no power could hold or win command of the sea
 Lcrc Selborne said the offer of Lord Gesclen, made when he was first lord of the admiralty. that if other nations would agree to diminish their rate of ship building Great Britain would not be slow te join the movement had not been with dravn, but the conditions now were com plieated.

LITTLE R|OTING
 BY THE STRIKERS Butchers Haul Ice in Their Own
 Wagons ONE SMALL DISTURBANCE Union Man Attempted to overturn Vehicle in the Downtown District
 Which Was Loaded
 With Meat.
ONE SMALL DISTURBANCE

Chicago, August 9.-The stockyards strike was freer of rioting today than at any time since the struggle with the packers began four weeks ago.
 With the exception of one small dis turbance in the down town district late in the afternoon when friends of the strikers discovered a wagon load of meat being hauled through the streets by a retail merchant, a crowd gathered and tried to overturn the vehicle but they were dispersed before they had accom- plished much damage.
 The strike leaders spent the day in sec ing that the boycott against the retail markets, which have been placed under the ban of the unions. was being enforced. In some instances the strikers were suc- cessful in cutting off the ice supply but in many of the places the boycott did not work as well as had been expected, the retailers being able to haul what ice they required in their own wagons.
 The packers claim that fully 80 per cent of the amount of work was carriN on today.
