ed by Negro.

is regarded as imminent at Fraser, Ia,
where Thomas Albright, white
miner, was Saturday night shot and
mortally wounded by James Price, a
negro The white miners held a meet
ing during the afternoon and voted to
refuse to work longer with the ne
groes. They accused the negroes of
having aided Price to make his es-
cape and the feeling is intense. There
are from thirty-five to fifty negroes in
the mining camp and about 1,200
whites Both sides are heavily armed.
A negro thought to be Price, was
seen near Ogden, seven or eight miles
from Fraser He answers the de-
scription of the man wanted and on
seeing that he was discovered con-
cealed himself in a corn field. A
posse from Ogden is searching for
MIN and another body of miners from
Ogden is working the river in that di-
rection, while still another body is
making thorough search of all the
negro nuts in Fraser
IL Price is caught it is believed that
the miners, in their present frame of
mind, will do him violence.
Albright is still alive. but the doc
tors say he cannot survive.

ADVANCED CLOSE TO RUSSIAN LINES
BUT THE MUScOviTES SUCCEED
ED IN DRIVING BACK THE
MlkADO'S TROOPS.

Mukden. Nov 22.-The anticipated
general attack by the Japanese has not
developed as yet. The uncertainty OF
the present situation gives rise to con
ficting rumors and speculation regard
Ing future operations. Some expect
Ne Japanese to attempt wide flank
ing movement on Tie pass and others
claim the armies will practically win
Ter in their present positions. Complete
inactivity prevails.
The nights are growing colder and
fuel is scarcer. Crowds of Chinese
are wandering over the fields and
roads picking up everything combus-
tible, even the roots of the Chinese
corn
Since the Japanese failed in the at
tack which they made on Poultiloff
hill. Nov. is, the old order of affairs
has been resumed
There are frequent skirmiSheS, par
tfcularly in the vicinity of the Russian
center, where there are daily clashes.
There was an exchange of artillery
fire during the greater part of Nov.
20 Ii appears that the affair of Nov.
Is was a reconnaissance in force and
that had Ii been successful it was to
be followed by general attack.
The Japanese got within thirty PAGES
Of the Russian outer positions before
being driven back. They left over 100
dead on the field.

shots at Lundeen, one of which killed
him instantly and narrowly missed
Adolph Berquist, who was one of the
party.
The four survivors of the holdup
were forced to jump from the train,

FREIGHT RATES.

Washington, Nov. 22.-Interstate
transportation matters with specific
reference to the fixing of railroad
freight rates, formed the subject of an
important conference at the White
House during the day. BY previous
appointment Governor Samuel r. Van
SAINT of Minnesota, Governor Commins
of Iowa, +. P. Bacon and Frank Barry
of Milwaukee and r. A. Higbie, an Of
fetal of the National Lumber Dealers
association, called on the president to
urge him to use his influence to secure
the enactment of a law which would
confer upon the interstate commerce
commission power to fix railway
freight rates in the commerce between
states The conference was arranged
by Chairman Bacon and by his invi-
tation Governors Van SAINT and Cum
minis were present. Governor Lafol-
lette of Wisconsin was to have been a
member of the delegation, but was un-
able to come to Washington
The subject was considered by the
president and the delegation at some
length. the members of the party pre-
senting their views as individuals and
the resolutions adopted by the inter-
state commerce law convention, which
was held in st. Louis in October. The
convention included delegates from
more than 800 commercial and bus
mess bodies throughout the country.
1t was pointed out to the president that
for ten years prior to 1897 the inter
state commerce commission had exer-
cised the power to adjust railroad
freight rates in order to prevent dis
elimination, but that since that time.
by reason of a decision of the United
States supreme court, that power had
been denied the commission. 1t was
urged by the delegation that law be
enacted by congress comforting upon
the commission the authority to ad-
just rates when they were found to be
discriminative in their operation or
in violation of the interstate commerce
act.
The delegation also suggested to
the president the desirability, as the
members viewed the matter, of dis
cussing the subject in his forthcoming
message to congress. The president
did not indicate, however, what his
personal views were, contenting him
self with giving careful hearing to
the statements made

The Japanese are now constructing
coast defense forts at Pigeon bay,
which is accepted as an indication
that they expect to be defending Port

ifs Guests of Local Organizations Distin-
guiShed Disitors Make Tour of the Bay.

Four members of the Merchant Ma
rine Committee of Congress stood on
the deck of the United States transport
tug Slocum at noon yesterday and
looked out through the Golden Gate
the portal of the highway to the
Orient. It was a revelation to them,
they said, and brought to them full
realization OF the growing Importance
of the West and the great part nature
had played in equipping it for the fight
for world wide recognition that is be-
fore it.
These distinguished visitors swept
the harbor with the eyes of critics,
looked UP at the big guns mounted on
the heights of the Preside and then
across at those browning the hills of
Marin, mounted higher than the steel
guardians of Gibraltar. That the har-
Dor is impregnable from without, the
commissioners said they were sure and
seen. Words, they said, could not ex-
press their admiration for this, the
great port of the Western sea.
Senator ]. H. Gallinger of New
Hampshire, president; Representatives
z. S. Minor Of Wisconsin, Thomas
Spight of Mississippi and w. E. Hum

ward V. Murphy, stenographer of the

on the Slocum, with the ladies Of their
party, Mrs. Minor, Mrs. Spight and two
daughters, and Mrs. Humphrey.
The arrival here from Portland, Or,
yesterday morning of the members of
the commission marked an era in the
commercial history of California and
their stay here to receive suggestions
as to measures that will lead to the
expansion of the American merchant
marine is sure to prove of great ad-
vantage to the State. While here they
will learn of needs of the State other
than those Of commerce and the cor
diality of their welcome cannot but
place them in the ranks Of CALIFORNIA;
friends in the halls Of Congress.

and Bleecker streets. the announced
object Of which is to lesens the evils
Of intempeFance. Bishop Potter has
provoked a veritable tempest of pro-
tests, denunciatiOns and criticisms
from clergymen and prOhibitionists in
all parts Of the country.
Bishop Potter is a trustee Of the
Church Temperance Society, whose
headquarters are in the church mission
house, New York Robert Graham, a
leading temperance worker and founder
Of the society, to-day visited the Sub
way Tavern. He said that In his Opin-
ion the Bishop had laid himself open
to severe criticism in helping to add
another to New YOrl's already large
ntlmber OF saloons.
Many clergyTnen also objected to
Bishop POtter's statement that the. ef-
fort to abolish the saloon was zone Of
the most comic and tragic failures in
history"
Scores OF letters and kilograms
reached the Bishop from men and
women eminent in the temperance
cause, pleading with him to reconsider
his course in helping to advertise the
saloon. -.
At the Subway Tavern, however. the
denunciatiOns by clergymen and tenn
perance advocates had the effect OF
causing a golden harvest TO I'LL the cash
registers. Thirsty and curious thrOngs
began to crowd the place during the
early morning hours and the rush con-
tinued until the tavern doors were
closed for the night.
Taking ADVANTAGES of the fact that
this establishment, for the time being.
occupied a prominent place in the pub
lie eye, the manager of the tavern
placed a big blackboard beside the front
entrance on which the following legend
was scrawled in chalk:
Yes, this is the saloon dedicated by
Bishop Potter. You are welcome"
Passing pedestrians, attracted by. the
notice and similar announcements dis
played in the saloon windows, formed
into interested thrOngs about the front
and side doors of the tavern. The
soda fountain, which advertises a
brand of beer, was patrOnized by lines
Of grinninS and enthusiastic young
men who seemed to enjoy the novelty
Curiosity seekers, comprising all
sorts and conditions Of men, thrOnged

souls emptied schooner after schooner

Many women, members Of the

approval OF the Bishops course.
