The ners on the fortified height
were not slow in giving smart 70
Spouse to the Japanese attack. and
soon r vigorous fire and counter fire
was in progress, TO which the big guns
Of the japanese squadon lent noisy
chime. At six o'clock the atmosphere
had cleared up sufficiently for the ma
val craftsmanship TO work effectively.
For three hours the Smelling from
bay and shore, replying from the forts.
continued without interruption, and
then the Russian fire abated.
The cessation Of the firing on the
hill was the signal for a forward
movement Of the troops below, and the
attacking batteries changed their posi-
( tons to secure better ranges.
In the main attack the japanese ar
tillery continued Smelling Nan Shan
hill, seeking TO destroy entanglements
and otherwise clear the way of the in
fantry, but every time the infantry
advanced the awful Russian fire drove
them back.
Regardless of Casualties.
In the meantime the Russians had
reinforced their right under cover OF
two field batteries previously With
drawn from Nan Shan, with fresh in
fantry, whose fire enfladed a consid
cradle portion of the entire '1panese
line
Try critical at this time was the
situation for Gen. Oku'S forces, for
which the Wayering Of the line under
the reinforced fire of the Russian in
fantry came the reports from the jap
anese batteries that AMMUNITION was
almost exhausted.
Gen. Ouk reports that he knew he
could not hope to continue the battle
much longer, so decided to make an
assault in force, regardless of casual
ties. Then the artillery opened fire
with the remaining ammunition, and
the first division courageously assault
ed the Russian center, only to be beat
en- back.
Dullhb thAS NlLhF TIC lbul III ItSLutul
artillery had been pounding the Rus
sian left. Suddenly the Japanese
squadron began pouring shells into the
Russian left, and its noisy awakening
was succeeded by the onslaught of the
fourth division on the demoralized left
wing of the defenders, and the victory
was won.
Benten Forces Reiterated.
The beaten forces, badly shattered,
retreated toward Port Arthur, explod-
ing the Tafangchen magazines as they
retired. A detachment of japanese in
fantry pursued the retreating Russians
far into the night.
Gen. 0ku estimated that the force of
the enemy consisted of one line divi-
sion and marines.
Gen. Oku telegraphs his opinion
that the Russians intended to check
the japanese advance at Nan Shan, in
order to protect Port Arthur.
Beside the big guns, a miscellaneous
assortment Of Russian property was
captured.
Gen. Oku concluded his report by
heartily thanking the navy for its CO.
operation. The Japanese captured a
number of Russian officers and men.

GUAGED APPLAUSE
IN TIME ELAPSED

CHICAGO. June 2L-FOr many years IL
has been customary TO guage the APP
plause Of national conventions by min
utes. This time it must be measured, II
at all, in seconds. Twenty minutes has
been expended in applause many times
in past conventions. The record Of the
recent convention was thirty seconds.
This was neither over platform nor can
oldate, Sut was OCcasiOncd by the read
ing Of the Washington dispatch which
announced Secretary Hays determine
ton TO have Perdicaris alive or Raisuli
dead.
The reading Of the platform was inter
rupted by applause about a dozen times.
The first use of the word protection
brought out two continuous seconds OF
handclapping and Gag-waving. The men
ton of MCkinley's name received five
seconds, ond the name Of President
Roosevelt seven. The reading was forced
70 suspend for four seconds after the
declare ton that this work Uariff re-
vision cannot safely be committed 10
any other hands than those OF the Re
publican party" The merchant marine
plank brought a few scattered demon
STATIONS Of approval from various parts
Of the hail, as did the reference to the
efficient protection Of American citizens
in foreign lands
The most curious feature of this dis
trlbutiOn OF applause was that the
seven seconds of IL. as much as the
candidates name inspired, followed the
Clause recommending the reduction Of
Congressional and electoral representa-
ton of States which have 'uncOnstltu-
tic nally limited the franchise. At the
end of reading the platform the entire
Outburst of 1ubilation lasted for an
even quarter of = minute.
Their hearts are I'm the right place,
but II is a little hard TO stir them up,
was the comment of a Pennsylvania Re
publican who looked over the crowd at
the Coliseum and noted the quiet which
reigned everywhere and the particular
phrases which drew forth cheers. The
spirit Of the Chicago convention was
unlike that Of most such gatherings Its
unconditional quality was what seemed
10 impress everybody. There was an
utter absence Of the usual claptrap Of
banners and palms and pampas grass,
of pictures let down from galleries Of
hEaying horns. and concerted yells, and
of machine-made enthusiasm.

NOTABLE WOMEN INTERESTED
IN CONVENTIONS DOINGS

Notable women at the sessions Of the
convention attracted much attention.
Conspicuous among them was Mrs.
Shaw, the wife of the Secretary OF the
Treasury, and her party. All the women
seemed decorously interested. but none
OF them took any such conspicuous part
in the occasional demonstrati lions as was
taken In previous conventions of various
parties by Mrs. Foster or Mrs. Lease,
or the young female editor from Ne
braska, who played Joan of Arc IN
champiOning the cause of Horace Boies
In previous conventions.
The most notable scene of this sort
occurred at Minneapolis in 1892, when
Mrs. Robert r. Hit. standing beside
Thomas b. Reed, led the tribute to the
famous Speaker and helped force him %
the front to satisfy the demands Of his
admirers with q speech. This was re-
called this year as an example not
equaled at Chicago.

UNCLE JOE'S WAYS
CAUGHT CROWD

CHICAGO. June 24-No one who at
tended the national convention viii ever
forget the work Of Uncle joe Cannon
as the presiding officer. Cannon was
worth coming all the way to Chicago
just to look at. He was a source OF de-
light 70 the convention, OF pride TO his
friends, and unalloyed Joy to the great
crowds of specta tors.
II can also be added that Uncle Joe
was pretty well pleased with himself
His unquestoned popularity had forced
upon him some degree Of self-aDprecia-
ton, which he made manifest by stand
ing and walking about with an air which
suggested both a field marshal and q
sOubrette.
His dignity was so pronounced that It
was appalling. Never before had his

STRANGE IRONY OF FATE
ILLUSTRATED BY BLACK

AS Ex-Governor Black stood facing his
audience clutching a handkerchief which
he held behind his back. the suggestion
undoubtedly came to many that his be-
ing there 10 place in nomination Theo-
dore Roosevelt was one of those curious
turns of politics which excite both in
terest and wonder.
1t was Theodore Roosevelt who was
chosen by Senator Plat in 1893 TO bring
about the defeat of Black for renomina-
ton for governor of New York, and
who accomplished IL. And yet there
stood Black. proud and pleased to per
form the Office Of nominating for Presi-
dent the man who had once checked
his cherished ambition.

November Will be small I'm proportion to
the total voting population. The Chi
cago gathering was Of the professional
politicians In the Republican party.
The votes must come from the mass
of the people. but IL is customary for
the politicians TO do the actual work OF
cOrralling the voters and seeing that
they visit the polls. This they will
probably do with enough fidelity 10
maintain their party standing but I'M
less a marvellous change comes over
them i'm the meantime. they Will put
no such spirit into the task as they
would il they had had a Hanna or a
Mckinley or a Blaine TO work for.
In this respect a great compliment is
unwittingly paid President Roosevelt.
Critics say Roosevelt IS not the sort Of
candidate 10 infuse the professional
worker with enthusiasm; but this Is be
cause his election will mean too little

a great presiding officer should be.

tlonh convention showed strong con-
trasts in their manner, ability, and ma
tional qualifications.
Probably only one public man in a
thousand is fitted by nature TO address
audiences OF 10000 people. There were
at the convention several whom moss
the audience could hear plainly enough
at least to get tbs drift of what they
were saying. These were Root, Cannon,
Foraker, and Lodge
Root Strained His Voice.
Elihu Roots address as temporary
chairman was clearly enunciated, and al
Such strain TO his vocal organs that
his voice showed signs of il the next
day. Yet no one behind him, and only
those who were IN favored places in
front Of him, could catch more than an
occasional phrase.
Contrasting the eX-Secretary's voice
with that Of Speaker Cannon. the lat
ter's voice is not loud, has none of the
foghorn quality, trembles noticeably,
and is not conspicuous for niceties OF
enumeration, yet it Is safe TO say that Il
carries twice as far as Mr.. Root S.
Without being harsh or metallic, Il has
a peculiar penetrating quality which

hubbub.

SETS THE PACE
FOR DEMOCRATS

CHICAGO. June 4.-As one Of the re-
suits Of the Republican National Con-
vention. the impression prevails that
the pace has been set for the Demo
Gratis. and that the St Louis gathering
will be impossible to stampede.
II is thought the calm surface of
things in the Republican convention
must have impressed the Democratic
observers with the necessity Of doing
things at their, own convention in a
serious and thoughtful way.
There Is also general agreement in
the idea that the aggregate vote next

TRIED HARD TO PRONOUNCE

If President Roosevelt himself had

been puzzled TO know how to pronounce

One of the delegates called him Rose

Still another had II Roosevelt" one
said "Rusefeld," and was answered by
one who called Il "Rsuseveld."
One of the speakers in the convention
alluded to President "Rusvelt." and the
next man on the floor said ''RoOsafeld."
But "Rosenfeld' seemed to be the most
popular pronunciation.
