UR HUNDRED JAPS SABERED.

A brilliant land and naval maneu.
yer by the japanese met with severe
losses and the temporary defeat OF
the troops which attempted to land a
force on the neck of the peninsula OF
Fort Arthur to cut of the Russian
stronghold.
Of 600 Japanese troops landed
near Dalny, above Port Arthur. only
100 came back. Four hundred and
ten were sabered by Cossack cavalry
in a fierce hand-to-hand conflict.
The attack was so sudden and seveie
that the japanese were completely
routed.

AT present, at or near the scene of
action, Japan is superior to her an.
tagonist In naval and military
strength, and her land troops and
naval forces are regarded as more
efficient than those of Russia; hence
1t is confidently predicted that in the
earlier stages of the struggle Japan
will outclass her rival, with the re.
suit that some notable victories on
land and sea will be placed to her
credit.
A great deal has been said and
written about the efficiency Of the
japanese navy, but it was hardly to
be expected that these officers would
have the hardihood to make a tor.
pedo attack upon the Russian fleet
such as characterized their notable
victory over the Chinese SQUADRON.
and yet the unexpected has happened,
and the reputation with which these
officers have been accredited has been
materially demonstrated. With all
this, however, the ultimate outcome
can hardly be in doubt if Japan is

EXPLODE DYNAMITE
At A RACE TRACK
Three Men Are Injured. but
Plan to Rob Is Not
Successful

CHICAGO, Aug 25.-By the eXplo-
sion of dynamite caps and in the panic
that followed three persons were in
jured this afternoon at the Hawthorne
race track. 1t is supposed that the
caps were thrown on the floor of the
betting ring with the idea of creating
a panic, during which the cash boxes
of the bookmakers might be robbed.
An attempt was made to rob one book
maker, but it failed. The injured are:
Frank Williams, left foot lacerated.
Mitchell Bruno, right foot lacerated.
A, M. McGill received severe scalp
wound and was badly bruised in the
panic in the ring.
None of the injured is seriously hurt.
The first explosion was caused by
Williams, who, while walking through
the east side of the ring, stepped on a.
cap. 1t exploded, tearing off his shoe
and lacerating his foot severely. He
fell to the floor with cry and instant
ly there was a shout that an insane
man was discharging his revolver at
random. Immediately there was wild
panic and while the bookmakers, seiz-
ing their cash boxes, bent low in their
DOOluS, luG crown IuSHcu dCIOSS W lHS
south side of the ring in the effort to
escape.
Just as the thick of the throng reach
ed this side of the ring, somebody trod
on another cap and the crowd tore back
to the place where it had started on
its first run. McGill was knocked down
during this rush and was trampled
upon. A third explosion took place
some minutes after the panic had been
allayed. 1t occurred just beneath a
chair on which Bruno was sitting,
threw him to the floor.
While the excitement was at it's
height man made an effort to grab
the cash box of a bookmaker doing
business under the name of the Chi
cago club. He was knocked down by
clerk and ran away before he could
be arrested.

Special to The Globe
NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-The great
steamship Minnesota has taken on
board all her stores, save fresh meat,
and will leave New York tomorrow
morning on her journey toward Seat
tie. The ship will make brief stop
at Newport News, where her hull be-
low the water line will receive another
coat of paint, thence to Philadelphia,
where she will take on the remainder
of her stores and also several thou
sand tons of anthracite coal. She will
then probably stop at Norfolk, after
leaving Philadelphia, and complete
with bituminous coal the 10000 tons
cargo she expects to carry to the Pa
cific coast.

WOMEN HELP PPARKER
Theatrical League Is Formed
for His Support

ESOPUS, N. Y, Aug. 25.-Judge
Parker was more than usually busy
today. He entertained men whose mis-
sions were political, as well as dele
cation representing the Theatrical
Women's Parker league. The candi-
date was told that 120 women were
members of the league, which the del
egatfon says controls 100 votes in the
theatrical profession. The members
propose to turn all of these votes into
the Democratic column, and as many
more as can be reached by their in
f1uence. The delegation was composed
of members of companies now re-
hearsing in New York and it received
a cordial reception.
Judge Parker's letter Of acceptance
viii not be issued until after that of
President Roosevelt. 1t was the in
tention to make public the letter
about Sept. 10, but it is now under
stood that Mr.. .Roosevelts letter will
not be issued until Sept. II. There
fore the letter of the Democratic can
didate probably will not be made pub
lie before Sept. II.

pressed the deepest sympathy for the
afflicted institution, together with
request that his name be withheld
from publication.
Archbishop Ireland was another
among the first to answer the call for
aid with a check for 500.
1t is expected that the mails of last
night and this morning will greatly in
crease the relief fund. The fact that
the appeal for aid was not circulated
until yesterday morning and that by s
o'clock last night nearly $500 had been
received, encourages the belief that
the next few days will see the fund
grow to considerable proportions.
With the cost of repairs to the House
of the Good Shepherd, amounting to
$500, and no funds available, save
those of the relief fund, it is deemed
safe to predict that the people of Min

contest it has met in number OF
years.
John A. johnson spent yesterday in
consultation with his friends in ST.
Paul and Minneapolis He reached the
city during the morning from his home
at st. Peter. At the Merchants hotel
he met Frank A. Day, who has been an
indefatigable worker not only in john
sons interest, but in an effort to bring
to his support every faction in the par
ty in the state. Senator Albert Schal-
Ter. another wheel horse of the state
Democracy, joined them and for sew
eral hours Mr.. Johnson and his friends
received calls from st. Paul Demo-
Gratis. After luncheon the trio went
to Minneapolis.
In that city L. A. Rosing, who was
the candidate of the party for gov
ernor two years ago, met them, and the
afternoon was spent in meeting the
leaders of the Hennepin county De-
mocracy. There was no distinction as
to factions in Minneapolis. The term
had been forgotten and the ST. Peter
man received assurances of support
from practically every Democrat of
prominence in the Flour City.

Many Republicans, whom. in the ma
ture of things the party could not call
upon, sent word to the office where
headquarters were made. during the
stay in Minneapolis, that they would
be glad to extend their cordial support
to the prospective nominee of the Min

name was first considered, resulted in

GEORGE WELLS GETS
NO SECOND TERM
Fails of denomination in the Utah Re-
publican Convention

SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, Aug. 25.-
After bitter all-day fight John C.
Cutler, of Salt Lake City, was nomi-
mated for governor by the Republican
state convention today on the second
ballot. The ballot stood: Cutler, 239;
H. V. M. Wells, present governor, 221.
Charges that church influence was
being used on behalf of Mr.. Cutler
were made. Indirectly the fight for the
United States senatorship was brought
into the contest, Senator Root, who is
one of the twelve apostles of the Nor
mon church, being an open and active
supporter of Mr.. Cutler, while Gov.
Wells was helped in his campaign by
Senator Kearns.

The nominee of the Democratic state
convention next Tuesday at Mime
apoIis will be John A. Johnson, of st.
Peter
Doubt as to Mr.. Johnson's accept
ance of the honor, should it come to
him in the convention, was set at rest
last night by a statement in which he
said that he would not decline the offer
of the nomination if it were rendered
him. The action of so many Demo-
cratic county conventions in declaring
for him on Monday put him in posi-
ton where he could not well decline,
and his announcement was the expect
ed development of yesterday.
Senator Johnson was in st. Paul and
Minneapolis yesterday and after meet
ing his friends gave out the foregoing
statement.
The situation throughout the state
is clarified, and if there was any ques-
tion of his acceptance of the honor
contained in a Democratic nomination
for the highest office in the gift of the
people of Minnesota it has been re-
moved by the statement issued last
night
With the question of the nominee for
governor practically settled, Democrats
are turning their attention to the minor
places on the ticket and to the plat
form upon which the nominees will
stand.
All over the state Democrats realiz-
ing the unusual opportunity presented
to their party this year, are discussing
the availability of strong men in their
localities for places on the ticket, and
discussions of the platform declara-
tions are taking precedence in many
quiet little conferences between the
leaders.

have served to show the party in this
