st. Petersburg, July 27.-Dispatche!
received by the war Office announce
that the Russians have retreated t.
Haicheng. They decided to withdraw
from Tatchekiao Sunday evening
Gen. Zaroubaieff, commanding the
fourth army corps, who is Gen. Stakel.
berg's senior, resolved to take this
step In consequence of the reports Of
scouts that the Japanese were turnins
the left flank.
The Japanese forces are believed to
include the whole of the armies Of
Gems Oku and Nodzu. More than
seven divisions Of Japanese are en-
gagged. The rear guard action between
Datchapu and Tatchekiao continued
until II at night, when the Japanese
were within sight Of the Russian en-
trenchments. The Russians withdrew
IN perfect order, favored by the beau
tiful moonlight. Further details Of the
fight have not yet been forwarded to
the war Office.
May Cut Railroad.
Gen. Kuropatkin reports that the
Japanese column in the vicinity of
saimatsza, which is believed to be two
divisions strong, is marching along
the valley of the Taitse, with the OBJ
vious aim Of cutting the railroad above
Liaoyang. The evacuation of Tatche-
kiao was prepared for long ago by the
Russians, as military experts have re-
peatedly indicated. The retirement is
not regarded as materially altering the
situation. The Russians had strongly
fortified Haicheng in view of this con-
tingency.
The Japanese advance against Gen.
kuropatkin's armies seems at last to
have begun in earnest. They are
moving up strongly from the south
and have captured Kan pass, on the
road to Haicheng. A northern move
ment is also reported, but the objective
Of the Japanese at present seems to
be Haicheng.
The port of Newchwang has at last
been abandoned by the Russians. The
authorities here, however, have no ad-
vices covering the details. The evac-
uation of Newchwang proper is ex-
pected to follow shortly.
Russians Inflict Heavy Loss.
Mukden, July 27.-The latest reports
received here are to the effect that
the Russians, with about 100 guns in
action in the Tatchekiao engagement,
inflicted serious losses on the Japan
ese and destroyed many Of their guns.
The Japanese attack on the center of
the Russian position was repulsed,
but the Russians were ordered to re-
tire Monday and occupy the heights
five miles north Of Tatchekiao. This
movement was carried out in good Or

this i nothing: but il i d duplicate
of what j. heard in many corners of

Do men who talk in such fashion be-
lieve that the nomination of Hanna
would increase republican chances at
the polls? They probably do not. since
unqueStionably the majority of voting
republicans are for Roosevelt. The
inevitable deduction follows that the
presidents enemies would rather lose
the election than see Roosevelt restur-
ed 10 power. They know that the sit
uatiOn i such in the senate that no
straight democratic legislation can
pas during the next four years. And
they think. correctly. that conserVa-
tive democratic president would bet
ter restore commercial confidence and
internal stability than Roosevelt. He
would he understood and trusted by
the people.

ARKANSAS EXHIBIT
 AT THE FAIR
Compares Favorably In Every Department With Those of
 Other States.

Other States.
 St. Louis, August 1-Never since her admission into the ] union has Arkansas had so fa- vorable a chance to exhibit the volume and variety of her won- derful resources as she is now enjoying through the medium of the great Louisiana Purchase ex- position at St. Louis, and the / splendid showing being made in each of the six special depart ments of her great compost ex- hibit flashes her glory upon the world with the overpowering force of a search light.
 The soil of a state is the pri- mary source of the wealth of her people, and the richer and more varied that soil the more solid and sure will be their prosperity. The products of the soils of Ar kansas are shown in three great divisions classified under the heads of agriculture, horticul- ture and forestry.
 ] In the palace of agriculture, centrally located and beautifully designed and constructed, stands her marvellous exhibit of farm products. Natural graf s, grasses, vegetables and fruits were used exclusively in it's con- struction, and the ornamental arrangement has been so eff ciently carried out that it is the almost universal verdict of visit ors that this is the most varied, beautiful and attractive booth in the building. Hon. H. l. Brad tford, state commissioner of mines, manufactures and agrl- culture of Little Rock, ably as- sisted by Park Crutcher, deserve great praise at the hands of the people of Arkansas for the effi- ciency with which the claims of Arkansas as an agricultural state are being placed before the peo- pie of the world.
 That Arkansas is the worlds orchard is conceded by every body who is posted, and Hon. John P. Logan, president of the Arkansas State Horticultural So- ciety, and MT. Chambers, who have planned, arranged and managed her fruit exhibit in the palace of horticulture, have had to perform the double task of filling the expectations of "home folks" and of opening the eyes of people of other states and for eign countries upon the import ance of Arkansas as a general fruit-growing state. They have made no attempt to hide a lack of fruit by elaborate ornaments constructed from wood, stone, paint or bunting, but have con- fined themselves entirely to fresh fruit, and when Arkansas hor- ticultural exhibit bursts upon the view of the visitor he simply sees a great sea of faultless fresh fruit, tastefully arranged on un- protected tables so that he may pass in among and examine them. No attempt or provision is made xb hide defects in samples by placing them under glass or pill ing behind protecting railings, and he who sees and studies Ar kansas matchless fruit exhibit will go away and ever afterward whenever and wherever he sees a perfect apple, peach, pear or berry will always think of Ar kansas.
 The states exhibit in the pal ace of forestry, fish and game is one which could not be duplica- tad from any other single state
