Catholic cIeroy Surprised.

Washington, Nov. 16. - Prominent
members of the Catholic clergy in
Washington expressed their surprise
at the announcement from Rome that
the Marquise des Monsters, formerly
Miss NJ. G. Caldwell, and the founder
of the Catholic University here, had
renounced the Catholic faith. In fact,
they were loath to believe she had
formed such a determination. At the
university itself the statement would
not be accepted as true, but in order
to satisfy himself on the subject, Rec
ton O'Connell cabled Rome for infor-
nation.
Bishop Spaulding, of Peoria, is in
this city to attend q meeting Of the
trustees Of the university. When
asked Il he could assign any reason
for the Marquise des Monsters ac-
ton, he answered that he could not;
that he knew her only as a good Cath
olic, and until the announcement was
made had given no thought otherwise
''It is all mystery to me" he said.
One official of the Catholic church
attributed as a possible. cause, taking
the story to be correct, the notoriety
which the university gained by thu
failure Of Thomas E. Waggaman, 1T
treasurer, by which the university SUI
fered considerable financial loss.

PENSION COMMISSIONER RESIGNS
Euaene F. Ware VIII Quit Office On
january !.

Washington, Nov. 15-Commissioner
of Pensions Ware rendered his resig-
nation to the president, and it was ac'
cepted, to take effect January 1.
When seen Commissioner Ware re-
fused to discuss his action in any way
except to state that the newspapers
of the country had been "resigning'
him for the past two years. For al
least one year, however, it has been
definitely known that Mr.. Ware would
retire from his office soon after the
fall elections and return to his home
in Kansas to resume his law practiVe
It is believed here that Commissioner
Wares action was not due to any sug
gestion that the severance of his re
lations with the pension office would
be agreeable to the president. On the
contrary, it has been no secret tha
Commissioner Ware soon after assum
ing his duties found the duties of hi
Office distasteful to him, and that thi'
distaste steadily increased. There il
no il timation as to who his successo
will be,

MURDERED ANp RosaEp
EmpIoye Of Reading Railway Found
Dead In Car at Doylestown, Pa.

Employe Of Reading Railway Founo
Dead In Car at Doylestown, Pa.
Doylestown, Pa. Nov. 16. - Dead
with a bullet hole in his left temple
and another through the right hand
Walter Suber, a young man of %, en-
ployed by the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railway company as a yard watch
man, was found lying across the over
turned seats in an empty passenger
coach.
The wounds, the condition Of the
seats In the car and other evidence
shows that a desperate struggle took
place before the murdered man was
overpowered and slain. A SS-calibre
bullet was found imbedded in the
woodwork Of the car just above the
body. and the weapon itself was found
under a seat near by.
The dead man was doubtless the VIC
tim of one OF more thieves, who slew
him in order to rob him. Suber drew
his pay and always wore gold watch
and a gold scarf pin. When found, his
watch and pin were gone, and a single
penny was the only money left on MS
DerSOn.

ESCAPED FROM
PORT ARTHUR
Russian Torpedo Boat Destroyer
Enters HarbOr at ChefOO.
JAP wARsHIP IS OUTSIDE

Chefoo, Nov. 16.-The Russian tor
pedo boat destroyer Ratstoropony put
into this harbor this morning. Firing
was heard half an hour before she en-
tered the harbor. A snow storm and
a high wind were prevailing at the
time. and it is believed that the Rus
sian vessel, under cover Of the Storm
attempted to escape from Port Ar
thur. The correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press succeeded in reaching
the destroyer after her arrival here
but he was not allowed to board hor.
The captain of the Chinese cruiser
Hal Yung was the first person to go on
board the Ratstoropony. He held a
brief conference with her commander,
after which the Ratstoropony came
further in the stream and anchored IN
the same spot that the destroyer Rye
shitelni did last August, before she
was cut out by the Japanese.
A japanese torpedo boat destroyer
has been seen outside, watching the
movements of the Russian vessel

JAP ADVANCE EXPECTED
Large Masses Of Their Troops Moving
and Russians Look For Attack.

larue Masses Of Their Troops MoVlng'
and Russians Look For Attack.
Chansianoutun, Manchuria, General
Kuropatkin's Headquarters, Nov. 16.-
"A Japanese advance is daily expected.
Large masses of their troops are NOV
ing eastward, and the Russians are
expecting them to strike at their left
flank.
An attack upon the fortified village
of Endowuniulu, not far from Sim
chinpu 1.-TWO miles west Of the Shakhe
railroad station), and fronting the
right flank of the 18th corps, was car
ried out brilliantly during the night
of November 10 by the second brigade
Of the s5th infantry division. The viii
LACE had been captured the same
morning by the Japanese. Subse-
Ouently the Russians abandoned the
place.
At nightfall the brigade silently
marched out and deployed. Four bat
talions were detached for the attack,
and several companies Of rifiemen
were ordered to move to the right, left
and rear of the village. The men were
told not to fire, but to charge with the
bayonet. Two battalions were left IN
reserve with eight guns. A simulta-
neous advance was begun at 10 O'Clock
that night. The assailants hurried for
ward and encountered a deep raviner
which they crossed. They then rushed
on the village. Not a single shot was
fred. The Japanese were completely
surprised, mostly sitting in the streets
and huts eating their supper. They
fed before the bayonets. AS soon a'
the Russians occupied the village they
brought up a battery. The japanese
tried to recapture the place at break oi
dawn, but were repulsed. The Rus
SLAMS, however, were compelled latei
70 abandon Endowuniulu, as the re-
Girement Of the third division exposed
them to q flank attack.

fore giving it publicity, its authenticity
has been fully verified by cable from
Rome:
Rome. Oct. 80, 19O4-Editor of the
Associated Press: You have my full
permission to print the enclosed anc
give it as wide publication as possible.
Yours truly,
"MARQUISE DIES MONSTERS"
Dear Editor-It may interest some
Of your readers to know that the Mar
ouise des Monsters, formerly Miss
Mary G. Caldwell, who, it will be re-
membered, founded the Roman Catho-
lie University at Washington some

former creed"

General stoessel In Hospital.

HEADQUARTERS of the Third japanese
ARMY before Port Arthur, Nov. 16,
via Fusan-It is reported that wound
received by General Stoessel has ne
eessitated his confinement in a hospl-
tal that he refused to relinquish the
command of the garrison, and that ne
has issued orders to the troops to ole
at their posts rather than surrender.
It is said that the spirit of the Rus
sian troops has been dampened by con-
tinuous work, the lack Of supplies and
the hopelessness of their ability to
make any successful defense OF the
fortress. It is said further that many
of the Russian soldiers are ready TO
surrender, but that they are kept at
their posts by officers, who threaten
them with revolvers, and that several
soldiers who were suspected OF a de-
sire to desert have been shot as a
warning to others. The Japanese now
balieve that the garrison has almost
reached the limit Of human endur-
ance.
Spies and Russians who have sur
rendered report that rations In the for
tress have been reduced. The wounded
found by the japanese are emaeiated.
Russian artillery shells are made
partly of wood and do not explode
This shows that the Russians are nov
short Of material for making heavy
ammunition.
The capture of the eastern fortified
ridge will mean the surrender of tn
fortress in a couple of weeks unles
the garrison there retires to the iso
lated forts. This seems improbable
however, and cold weather and tn
lack of food and ammunition render
desperate resistance unlikely.

Philadelphia, Nov. 15-One man was
killed and about a score Of other per
sons were injured in a collision OF
trains at Chadds Ford Junction, ~
miles southwest of this city. The place
where the accident occurred forms
the junction of the central division OF

loose from a freight train standing on
a siding of the Philadelphia, Balti-
more and Washington railroad, ran
down grade and struck an approach
ing passenger train after it had
crossed the Wilmington and Northern
tracks. The impetus of the collision
sent the passenger train down grade
and it ran into a Wilmington and
Northern train which was crossing the
tracks. One car from each train rolled
down a 12-foOt embankment, and How
ard Palmer, of Kennett Square, Pa,
aged "a years, was caught under the

wanna Railroad Will Make Change.
Elmira, N. Y, Nov. 16.-Railroad
men here are much concerned over a
report, seemingly authoritative, that
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern railway, after three years OF study
by its high officials, will soon be
equipped with electric power. 1t is
also related that when the architects
were asked to draw plans for the
power house now building in Scranton,
Pa, which will operate the electrical
signal system, it was impressed upon
them that they must plan so that an
immense addition might easily be
made to allow for the installation OF a
mammoth power plant, presumably to
operate the road with electricity.
