The daily sentinel. [volume] (Grand Junction, Colo.) 1893-current, 1904-08-22

London, Aug. 22.-The interven-
ton of the American squadron at
Shang hal in TIE Japanese operations
against the Russian cruiser Askold
created considerable surprise in official
and diplomatic circles here. The
Japanese legation was at first inclin-
ed to believe that the report that the
United States torpedo boat destroyer
Chauncey steamed into a position be-
tween the Japanese boat and the Rus
sian cruiser was a Shanghai fake, y
as it las been believed that the Amer
lean government would not object to
offensive action against Russian war
ships in case of their failure to OBJ
serve Chinese neutrality.
An official of the legation said
IF the report is not untrue the
American commander must have had
good reason for his action. such as the
protection of American interest which
would have been endangered by flying
shells.
Japan has been very reluctant to
send ships into the harbor for she rec

she having given the order and the
Russian ships having refused. it was
then incumbent for Japan to act,
thereby protecting Chinese neutrality
and at the same time exercising her
rights as belligerent.
'It would never have done to per-
NIT Russian ships to remain in q
Chinese port. deliberately and avow-
eddy violating the neutrality of the
country.
The foreign office has asserted from
the time of the arrival of the Askold
and Grozovoli at Shanghai that it was
the business of Great Britain to
interfere but that it was China's duty
to observe strict neutrality, and it has
gone so far as to urge her to adopt
this policy. In the opinion of British
officials if the Russian ships fail to
dismantle they must take the conse-
qeuences.

THE VINING- DIVORCE
J. c. Winnings Divorce at Colorado
Springs Food for Scandal.
Well Known Here.

Colorado Springs is enjoying at the
present time the details of divorce
suit which is giving it much food for
gossip. 1t relates to gentleman.
who for several years resided here
and at one time was joint agent here,
J. @. Vining. now superintendent of
transportation of the Midland road.
Mr.. Winning first brought suit a
gainst his wife. setting forth in detail
the reasons for asking for decree of
divorce 1t is in the natare of these
charges that causes food for gossip.
But it now appears that Mr.. Vim
ing has dismissed his suit against his
wife and has allowed her to secure
the divorce. which decree was grant
ed Nellie b. Vining.
When Mr.. Vining first filed his
complaint he made general charges
against his wife. He stated that her
actions had caused him great mental
worry ard suffering. Counsel for the
fair defendant came back and filed a
motion requiring Mr.. Vining to make
his complaint more specific. The
counsel for Mr.. Vining then made
the charges more specific and it is in
these charges that the gossipers
have found much food for scandal and
gossip.
There were six specifications and
from their nature evidently Mr.. Vim
ing had somewhat to suffer. From
their text it is easily imagined that
Mrs. Vining led very racy existence
and has tastes which were not
motherly or womanly. to say the
least.
Mr.. Winning has many friends in
this city who will regret to. hcar of
his marital troubles.

Japs in Control.

Chez Foo. Aug. %. = Special. =
While the Russians apparently believe
that they will hold the Japanese in
CHECK. their confidence in successful
resistance is not absolute. The Jap
anese have guns mounted on nearly
all the hills which formerly formed
the Russian outposts. The Japanese
fire is accurate. The hospitals and
.Chinese houses at Port Arthur are fill
led with Russian wounded. 1t is ss-
serted that the Japanese have receiv-
ed reinforcements of forty = thousand
men.

WOODMANSEE In TOLLS
A Former JunctiOnite EmbezzIes
about $500 "A Good Fellow,
but His Own Enemy.

Clark A Woodmansee, who resided
in this city for number of years,
was arrested in Denver Saturday
night on the charge of embezzlement,
preferred against him by James E.
Husk, chairman of the board of trus-
tees of the Eagles, of Denver.
Woodmansee has been financial sec
Rotary of the Eagles and also the ed
itor of the Liberal Advocate and has
been quite prominent for a number of
years in the Eagles fraternity. 1t is
charged that during the sickness of
the treasurer, the work Of that office
devolved upon him and that he en-
bezzled as much as $500 and that his
defalcation will probably run into the
thousands.
Clark A. Woodmansee was for a
long time resident of this city and
was prominent i'll band circles here. be-
ing leading member at one time of
the Silver Crescent band at the time
of its best condition. He was prin-
ter by trade and removed from here a
number of years ago to become pub
Usher of the San Miguel Examiner.
He sold out at Telluride and went
to Denver. There never was better
hearted man in the world than CLARK
A. Woodmansee, and the only enemy
he had was himself. He was far too
liberal and was always willing to
help those in trouble. Woodmansee
did not get bail on the night he was a
arrested and remained in Jail over
night. He declares that the whole
thing is conspiracy against him and
that certain people who were jealous
of him. had conspired to get him in
to trouble. His friends here hope
that he may be able to make it clear

Five reported to be dead, two
s score injured, and property loss
