WAR IN THE EAST.

Censored dispatches received in Lon
don last night from correspondents with
the Russian forces in Manchuria indicate
that the position of General KuroPat-
kin's forces are daily becoming more
dangerous. The japanese, in large
numbers, are tnrning the Russians left,
having withdrawn from the west side Of
the railroad.
Battles are imminent at Tatchekiao
and Haicheng. The japanese are six
miles south OF Tatchekiao. Much skir-
mishing is taking place. The weather
is favorable for the movement OF troops.
No rain has fallen for a whole week.
The thermometer has registered as high

A Japanese column has appeared on

STRIKE OF MEAT PACKERS.

Negotiations for peace in the Chicago
stock wards strike were practically at a
standstill last night, and the strike will
continue until one side or the other
abates something of the demands made
up to the present time. Both sides are
anxious for a peaceable settlement, but
the stumbling block to a final ADJUST
ment is that neither side is prepared TO
allow the other to dictate the basis OF the
arbitration.
Yesterday afternoon the packers con-
sidered Mr.. Donnelly's reply to their
proposition of Thursday night, but it
proved unsatisfactory, and the union'of-
fcials we've notified that it would be
impossible to reach an agreement along
the lines suggested by Mr.. Donnally.
In their answer to Mr.. Donnally the
packers declared themselves willing to
arbitrate, but situated that the arbitra-
ton should include the entire scope of
the strike, and not to be subject to re-
structions or limitations of any kind.
This communication Of the packers was
identical with the one sent Thursday by
them to Mr.. Donnelly, to which his
counter proposition of yesterday was
reply.
With the reply of the packers was sent
a note to Mr.. Donnelly notifying him
that they would be ready for his answer
today and that if he desired another
conference with them they would be
pleased to meet him in another effort to
reach basis of arbitration. No arrange
ments have as yet been made for another
conference, but the reply of the unions
to the last note of the packers will be
sent today, after which Mr.. Donnelly
will leave for ST. Louis, where be will
address a mass-meeting OF strikers on
Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. Donnelly's last proposition to the
packers was as follows:
.'All grievances TO be submitted to
arbitration; all strikers to be reinstated
in body; men employed by the packers
since the strike may be retained If use
can be found for them; the temporary
wage scale to be that in effect previous
to May 28. This means that unskilled
labor is to be paid, pending the decision
of the arbitrators, lSI cents, instead Of
10 to 17l cents, the price paid since
May 2S."
The following is the reply of the pack
ers to the proposition of Mr.. Donnelly:
"All grievances to be submitted to ar
bitration; the strikers to be re-employed
as rapidly as places can be found for
them, preference being given the strik-
ers in the order of their applications Tor
work; all men now at work to be re-
tanned, and that temporary wages be in
accordance with the schedule in effect
at the time of the strike"
Thhe allied trades unions at the stock
yards are becoming restless, and unless
a settlement is reached in the near fu-
ture they may decide to stop work, in
sympathy with the men already out.
The members of the allied crafts at the
yards in Chicago number between A.
600 and Is, 900, and majority of them
belong to the union. A mass-meeting
of these men will be held tonight, when
the question of their quitting work will
be discussed.

Mr.. ]. w. Turner, of Truhart, Va,
saws that Chamberlaln's Stomach and
Liver Tablets have done him more good
than anything he could get from the
doctor. If any physician in this country
was able to compound medicine that
would produce such gratifying results
in cases of stomach tronbles, biliousness
or constipation, bis whole time would
be used in preparing this one medicine.
