Captured By Cossacks.

St. Petersburg, (By Cable). Major
General Plug, the chief of staff of Vice
roy. Alexieff, tclegraphed from Port
Arthur as follows:
SThe situation at Port Arthur is un-
changed.
A sotnia of Cossacks, marching from
Wiiu captured japanese major, Tat
saru, with five soldiers and two civil
ians.
The reports regarding the enemy are
generally contradictory and scarce.
1t is confirmed that troops of Yuan
Shat Kali communicative chief of the
Chinese Army, are being dispatched to
Tsinchou and KupantZe.
All is quiet in Manchuria.
A Press dispatch from Port Arthur
says the first land encounter has occurred.
A picket of Cossacks attacked small
detachment of japanese troops on Korean
territory. The Cossacks captured some
Japanese prisoners on whom they found
maps and papers.
The collision was presumably between
accommodating parties. A general en-
gagement is not anticipated Immediately.
The japanese fleet was observed Feb
ruary IS cruising off Port Arthur. All
the women and children have left Port
Arthur and practically only the garrison
remains.
Reports from Northern Korea say the
Koreans are showing a decidedly friendly
attitude to the Russians.
The Manchurian Railroad is conveying
troops without difficulty to the various
points of concentration.

TO TAKE AWAY RIGHTS OF JEWS.
Latest Ruling Expected to Cause Greater
Emigration.

London, (By Cable, The St. Peters
burg correspondent of the Jewish Chron-
icle says the commission now sitting ut
st. Petersburg, charged with the revision
of the laws in force against the Jews,
proposes to recommend that in 10 pro-
vinces of Poland where hitherto Jews
have enjoyed unrestricted rights these
rights shall now be restricted in every
respect to conform to the regime obtain
ing within the pale of settlement
Under this ruling Jewish merchants
and professional men will be deprived of
the right to employ Jewish clerks and
assistants. 1t is almost impossible for
Jewish merchants to carry on their bust
ness without Jewish clerks and assist
ants. More than half million Jews re-
side outside the pale of settlement,
few of whom, if these restrictions were
enforced, could remain. 1t is therefore
believed that an unexampled emigration
of Jews will result if the recommends
tions of the commission are put into
effect

MANY PEOPLE KILLED
Awful Damage Caused by Dynamite
Explosion.
DISASTER ON THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Everything Within Hall Mile of Explosion
Wrecked and the Ground Torn Up for Dis
lance OF Thousand Feet, Leaving Great
Excavation Thirty Feet Deep--Besides the
Dead There Are Fifteen Injured.

Ogden, Utah, Special. -Twenty five
Persons have been killed. Is Others in
iured. several, it is believed, fatally, and
great amount of railroad property de
stroyed by an explosion of car load Of
dynamite at jackson, a telegraph station
on the western end of the Great Ogden
Lucin cutoff on the Southern Pacific
Railroad. The explosion was caused by
collision between two freight trains,
due, it is said, to the failure of the air
brake apparatus to operate. Eight OF
the dead and five of the injured are
Americans; the others are Greek labor
ers.
The explosion following the collision
between the two trains, which met on
almost in front of the telegraph station,
was terrific Everything within Il radius
of half mile was wrecked. The town
of Terrace, 10 miles to the north, was
shaken as though by an earthquake,
window panes in the station at Colon.
10 miles away, were shattered, and the
sound of the explosion was heard in this
city, 81 miles from the scene of the dis
aster The ground upon which the trains
were standing was torn up for over Il
thousand feet, leaving a great excava-
ton 80 feet in depth; fragments of a
dozen freight cars and two engines were
thrown for incredible distances over the
surrounding country, the station build
ing was blown to splinters and the dead
and injured were scattered for hundreds
of feet in all directions, most OF them
having their clothing torn off.

LIVE WASHINGTON AFFAIRS
No American Slave Dealers in the
Philippines.
Left to Roosevelt.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
formulated an opinion which may be of
great political consequence. The appre
hension on the part of several railroad
magnates and capitalists interested in
large corporations that the so called anti
trust legislation of last Congress would
be enforced to their injury has caused
considerable irritation, and has resulted
in an acknowledged hostility between
the President of the United States and
several great capitalists Among, the
things strenuously objected to by GER
Mr.. j. j. Hill, was the enforcement of
act requiring the publication of import
and export traffic tariffs as well as the
domestic traffic tariffs. According to the
construction of the commission. the law
has always required such publication,
but prior to the enactment of the Elkins
law by the last Congress there appeared
to be no way for the commission to en-
force it's ruling with regard to this
matter.
The Elkins law provided means which
the commission believed might be made
efficient for the enforcement of the law,
and considerable apprehension lest the
power of the commission should be exer
cised has been manifested by those es
pecially interested The decision an
nounced by the commission temporarily
postpones this issue, leaving it open for
the President to recommend and for Con-
gress to enact such amendments to the
law as may meet the requirements of the
railroads

Stronger Personnel at Sea. ,

Representative c. w. Thompson Dem.,
Ala, has introduced bill to reorganize
and increase the efficiency of the person
mel of the Navy and Marine Corps by
placing commissioned officers of the line
of the Navy Medical and Pay Corps,
chaplains and professors on the same
footing as officers of the corresponding
rank in the army as regards pay and al
lowances, except forage
Commissioned and retired officers are
protected in the bill by a provision that
the pay of the formermay not be reduced,
or that of the latter increased OF reduced.
The most radical feature of the bill is
provision to repeal all prize money
statutes These authorize the distribu-
ton among captors of the proceeds of
vessels and captured property as prize.
Naval chaplains not possessing the rela-
tive rank would, under the bill have that
of lieutenant, and all officers, including
warrant officers, who have been or may
be appointed from civil life would on
the date of appointment be credited, for
computing their pay, with five years
service.

here to be serious.
1t is declared that Austria has 30, 00C

a move were made, Italy would consider
it as disturbing the balance of power on
the Adriatic and. most detrimental to her

seat of war that it is impossible to form
a decided opinion abeut anything, ex
cept that the Russian Navy is crippled.
Russia is drawing together another fleet
from various quarters, but it is likely
to be crippled like that at Port Arthur.
A modern ship once destroyed. cannot be
easily re. laced during the brief period
of modern war. On the land Japan
has landed many troops at many points
1t is intended for them to converge
and form great army, but if the Rus
slams know anything about strategy
some of these divisions will have troubles,
1t is reported that Alexieff and his staff
may retire to Hardin, comparatively
new and very important town behind
Mukden.
The town is at the junction of the
Siberian and Manchurian Railroads,
and is capital base if Russia proposes
to surrender to the japanese the Prov
ince of Manchuria. In the event of the
Japs attacking Alexieff in his new po-
sition he could fall back to another base
and keep this up until he got within
striking distance of St. Petersburg, from
whence he could draw all the reinforce
ments needed.
There may be no foundation for the
reported contemplated move of the Rus
slams The idea that Alexieff could get
rcinforcements by the Siberian Railway
is untenable 1t is single track road
in bad condition and the reinforcements
that could be drawn over it would not
much more than supply the ordinary de-
ficiencies or losses of an army. Russia
is fighting far from home, with no
means of reaching the latter in time for
emergencies, while Japan, by the sea, is
within 36 hours of home, and the sea is
perfectly clear That docs not signify
however, that Japan will win on land. 1t
gives her the better chance, provided her
men can stand up against the Russians.
The effect of the war on Europe is ex-
citing considerable concern here both in
government circles and in the public
mind. The French government has an
nounced its neutrality and larger part
of the French people are up in arms.
The Russian fleet which passed through
the Suez Canal and was supposed to be
in the Indian Ocean is in the French
port of Ujibonti in Somaliland. 1t is
quite an important feet, consisting OF
the battleship Oslianga, the cruisers
Aurora and Dimitri Denskoi and num-
Der of Torpedo boat destroyers, all com
manded by Admiral Wircuius.
