Many Japanese wounded.

ST. PETERSBURG, March ID
Viceroy Alexeieff has cabled to the ems
peror from Mukden as follows:
General Mishtchento reports that
Pingyang is occupied by Japanese III
fantry with some guns and that Kos
rean carts are carrying their supplies.
The enemy's cavalry is not visible Ii
large bodies, and only isolated horse
men are seen. Their horses are poor.
"Our patrols discovered the presence
of the enemy's infantry on the banks
of the Chengcheng river five versts
about three and one-third naiies} from
Anju. The enemy opened fire and
killed one of our horses"
A Port Arthur report says:
despite the various bombardments
at Port Arthur the external aspect ~
the city remains unchanged, although
the enemy fired an enormous number
Of ~projectiles. The marine monsters
in the harbor look like enormous black
bulls, and the battleships and cruisers
bear marks Of the fighting. The black
clouds of smoke vomited from their
stacks overhangs the town. The cruis-
er Pallada stands almost ready In the
! dock.
Near the entrance Of the harbor can
be seen the charred wrecks Of the Jap
anese fire ships. Aboard n OF the
farthest out was found the body Of d
Japanese officer who had shot himself.
Beside him lay a chart showing the
course Of the fire ships and the spot
| where they sank.
six hours of firing by the heaviest
guns during the last b~ombardment did
not demolish a single building, but cost
a few lives. The husband and child d
the Baroness Frank, who was decapf-
tated by fragments of she'll flying III
through the window, were unharnled.
"The enemy In endeavoring to stand
as far as possible outside the range a
the Russian batteries rendered then
own fire ineffective. The people are
getting used to the bombardments. and
the Japanese squadron cruising in the
ofing causes little alarm"
A Mukden report says the stories *
soldiers frozen to death while crossing
Lake Baikal provoke mirth there. The
men are not suffering from the cold
Huts at intervals or a few versts pro-
vide warmth and refreshment, and the
weaker men are driven across II
sleighs, well wrapped up in furs. Oth-
ers march the distance, forty versts
nbout twenty-six miles,, comfortable
in n day and are glad of the opp0rtul
nifty to stretch their limbs after the
railroad journey.
During the fighting at Port Arthur
the Japanese battleship Mikasn was
struck by ten %projectiles and seriously
damaged, two Japanese battleships
and two cruisers have been docked for
repairs at Nagasaki and Sasebo, and
1000 wounded men are said to be II
the Japanese hospitals.
All the Russian wounded and sick a
Port Arthur are making good progress
toward recovery.

PARKER's VIEW
OF F|L|P|NOS
ROOSEVELT GIVES NO
PROMISE OF FREEDOM.
United States Has Spent $3.50, 200, 900
and 100000 Lives i'm Acquiring an
Option on the Philippines-Govern-
ment Did Its Duty by Cuba-Fili-
pinos Should Not Be Forbidden to
Hope for Ultimate Freedom.

Judge Parker addressed two visit
ing delegations, discussing the issues /
of the campaign in what was his sec
ond speech since accepting the demo-
cratic nomination, says an Esopus
telegram. The Philippines was the
principal topic of the address, Judge |
Parker taking as his text the demo-
cratic platform as relating to the dis
position of the islands. In part he
said:
1--WE may not disregard the respon-
| sibility imposed by the possession of
the Philippines, and that responsibility
may be best subserved by preparing
the islanders as rapidly as possible
for self-government and giving to
them assurance that it will come as
soon as they are reasonably prepared
for it. This means independence for
the Filipinos in the fullest sense of
the word"
Quoting from the address of Secre-
tary Taft, wherein he says, "The sue
cess of the experiment we are max
ing in the Philippines depends upon
our having the Filipinos understand
that we are there for their benefit,
but that we expect to stay there in
definitely, working out the good we
propose to do them" Judge Parker
said:
Here we have the Issue clearly de-
fined. The republican party stands
for subjugation of defenseless foreign
peoples; the democratic party stands
for freedom. The administration
wasted $3.50, 900 and 100000 lives
in acquiring the option on the Philip
pines, and that waste of lives and
money is not yet ended"
"The administrations policy" said
Judge Parker, refuses to promise in
J. dependence for the islanders now ol
, at any time upon any condition. Il
does not even leave open the door o.
hope. The administration rails at th'
democratic proposal to promise then
l independence as soon as they are pre-
II pared for it.
II Indeed, 1t suggests to SO,0OO,OO
II intelligent people that such a promis
would stimulate the vicious to- b
more vicious, instead of encouragin
the improvement which would secur
for them what they most desire o
earth-freedom. I but state tn
| proposition. 1t argues itself.
NJ "If our people agree that the ad
ministration is wrong in threatenin
by it's silence that which it undoubted
~ intends, namely, perpetual bondag
for the Filipinos, the remedy is
III their hands. We could have donate
.lI to Spain a number of millions and al
nexed Cuba with equal justice and le
II suspicion of imbecility than we di
played in acquiring the Philippines.
III but we have done our duty to C'
ba. Shall we forbid the Filipinos
hope for independence? Shall we pr
III ven. their building up their own civil
- zation and try to force ours up'
them?
"our duty to the Filipinos deman
the premise of independence, but
it did not our own interest deman
to that we be relieved of the Philippin
Just as soon as they are reasonat
prepared for self-government."

This was told as a new story ia the
smoking room of an uptown apart
ment house a few nights ago, says the
New York Times.
Noah Webster was, as might nat
urally be supposed, stickler for the
correct use of English, and he had
frequent occasion to take exception to
Mrs. Websters use-7er, as he termed
it, nlisuse-of words On one occasion
Webster happened to be in the dining
room alone, when very pretty house
maid entered. Noah, being somewhat
susceptible TO feminine charms, ac-
cording to the chronicler, walked over
to the girl, put his arms about her
waist, and kissed her squarely on the
mouth. Just as this moment Mrs
Webster entered the room, gasped,
stood aghast, and in a tone of horror
exclaimed:
why, Noah, / am surprised"
Whereupon Mr.. Webster, coofly and
calmly but with every evidence of dis
gust, turned upon her.
How many times must I correct
you on the use of simple words?" he
remarked. tsYou mean, madam, that
you are astonished. /, madam, l am
thee that is surprised"
