Greene and lawson Find
 Themselves Together
NO GUNPLAYS NOR BLOOD
The Arizona Colonel Was Net at His Hotel by inc Author of "Frenzied Finance" and They Tailed 1t Over for Seven Hours.

Boston, Dec. 16.-Col. Wm. C. Greene of New York, who last week accused Thomas w. Lawson of this city. of being responsible for the recent break in copper shares. came to Boston today and was met at the Hotel Touraine by MT. Lawson. The nature of the state ments issued by both Col. Greene and MT. Lawson, butt particularly by Col Greene, who considered that Mir. Law son was to blame for the raid upon the stock of the Greene Consolidated Copper company, together with the market developments of the past two days. all had combined to suggest the possibility of a slash between the two operators.
 So far as became known however, nothing of the kind took place and Col. Greene returned to New York on the o'clock train after having been in conference with Mir. Lawson since 9:45 a. m. Added interest was lent to the incident through the presence of police headquarters inspectors. headed by Chief Inspector Wm. Watts, and by the rather unexpected manner in which Col. Greene and Lawson met at the hotel.
 After Col. Greene had left, a mem 
 firm, who attended the conference, is- sued a statement which. he said. had been assented to by Col. Greene and MT Lawson.
 The substantial part of the state ment was that Mir. Lawson had called upon Col. Greene at the hotel after i learning that Greene was in E:oston; that Greene had maintained at the conference that the recent breaks in the stock market were due to the pub lie utterances of Mir. Lawson; that the colonel felt that to them was due the 1 decline in certain stocks in which he was interested; that MT. Lawson had maintained, in answer to Col. Greene. that he had done nothing to bring ! bout any fall in stocks in which Col. Green was interested.
 The statement concluded with the words: Each gentleman had 3 per i feet understanding of each others Npo- ! sition. There is nothing further to state of public interest," Col Greene and MT Lawson each refused to dis ' cuss in any way the conference, say { ing that the general statement con 1 tained all they had to express. l Col. Greene had publicly advertised ] that he would call on Mr. Lawson but
 MT. Lawson anticipated this by ap- bearing at the Hotel Touraine at an early hour in rhe forenoon. Col. Greene | had not finished his breakfast and when the Boston trader sent in his card. Col. Greene sent out word that

Russian Headquarters. Mukden. Dec. 16-There was considerable desultory firing on beth sides today. The Jap anese made an advance, but it proved to be only a demonstration. At night sorties continue.
 A curious melee resulted last night from the simultaneous advance Of both Russians and Japanese. Two col umns of Japanese, taking advantage of the darkness, advanced on the Rus sian positions, and at the same time a Russian column set out for the vil- lage of Nanganza. The Russian column heard the Japanese firing in the direc- ton of their base and thought they had been discovered, but they held Nan ganZa while they mined it and then retired. The Japanese re-entered the village where they were greeted with a tremendous explosion which killed many of them.
 In the meantime the two Japanese columns operating in the direction cf the Russians heard the explosion and thought they had been outhanked, whereupon they retired. The Japanese and Russians met as each side was re- turning. Both were utterly surprised A hand to hand scuffie in the darkness ensued, but, as it was impossible tc distinguish friend from foe. probably little damage was done. The Russian loss was only one. On the night cf Dec. Ii fourteen Russian scouts pen etrated to the village of Fanshan where they destroyed a Japanese sig nal tower and carried off an old bell which had been used by the Japanese to signal the approach of the Rus sian troops

The Japanese, the Rus sians say. lost three torpedo boats last month. the last one on Dec. 14. When the High Hill was taken the Japanese lost 12,OO0. They have taken none of the main forts. Steamers laden with ammunition. and supplies run the blockade frequently. The men left Port Arthur in a snowstorm and were nearly frozen when they reached here. High Hill is probably 203 Meter Hill.
 The Russians have high hopes that the fortress will be able to hold out for months.

SHE IS INCOMNUNICADO
Mrs. Chadwick Will Be Allowed to
 Receive no Visitors.

Cleveland, O., Dec. 16.-Mrs. Chad wick will, from now until the time of her trial or arraignment in court, be rigidly excluded from all visitors and even her son and nurse will be denied perTniss to see her except on the written order of United States Mar shal Chandler.
 This afternoon an order was receiv- ed at the jail by Sheriff Barry direct ing hinl to deny all people the privilege of seeing her and he at once ordered that her nurse. Frcda Swanstron, who was then in ja:l with Mrs Chadwick. be ordered to leave. This action was in direct opposition to an order of United States Marshal Chandler issued yesterday in which he directed that Emil Hoover, son of Mrs. Chadwick. and the nurse should be admitted at any time to see Mrs. Chadwick. Sheriff Barry declared that no visitors to Mrs. Chadwick would be permitted to see her except in the regular visiting hours of the jail.
 The order of Judge Wing put period to episodes at the jail and her attor- neys stated this afternoon that there would be no fJsther developments in the legal end of the case until Mrs. Chadwick was brought into court either for arrai gnment or trial.
 M. F. Brarnley a wealthy contractor, called on Mrs. Chadwick just prior 10 the receipt of Judge Wings order, with Sheldon Kerruish, one of Mrs. Chad wick's attorneys. He was asked if he was going to give bail for her and he said he was not. When asked if he intended to furnish money for the ex- penses he laughed and would not make reply.
