ZASSALITCH TELLS
OF ENEMY,S MOVEMENTS

ST. PETERSBURG. May 11.-Lieutenant
General Sakharoff sent a dispatch to the
general staff to-day communicating re-
port of Lieutenant General Zassalitch.
dated May 10. follows:
Troops, which appeared to be a. division
of the Japanese guard. have been advance
ing for the last two days from Feng-Wang-
Cheng westerly in the direction OF Hail
Cheng.
1T is reported that a Japanese force. cons
sisting of about division of infantry,
intended to march on Saimadza with forty
guns and 500 cavalry.
From reports received from the River
Dazaw, ii may be concluded that the Jap-
anese army is concentrated in three groups.
the two southern groups being on the low
er section of the river Tayang at Hondou-
hanya, on the left bank of the river az
Dayan, and at Donamyo. in the same To-
cality. and the northern group, opposite
Habalina, on the road from Feng-Wang
Cheng to Saldza. fourteen to sixteen miles
from Feng- ng-Cheng.
ut is difficult TO obtain information from
the local Chinese. In one case we discov-
cred that the Chinese had warned Jap
anese troops of ambuscade which had
been arranged by Cossacks."

THE PORTLAND EXPOSITION.
Demand for Space Will Compel Addi
tional Buildings.

PORTLAND Ore, November $50 great
is the demand for space at the Lewis and
Clark fair that the present foreign exhibits
building and the liberal arts building are
found to be entirely inadequate. and ways
and means will at once be devised to pro-
vide necessary additional space. The con-
tingency appeared when the report Of Direc-
tor of Exhibits Henry E. bosch was re-
ceived.
Notwithstanding applications for space in
these buildings exceeded the ground area
by thousands of feet, Mr.. bosch, who is in
st. Louis, aliotting space, granted all the
applications and communicated with the
Lewis and Clark corporation at Portland,
which Immediately approved his action.
According to the exposition officials, the
plan which probably will be chosen, Is to
surrender the present liberal arts building
to the uses of foreign exhibitors which will
AFFORD ample room for this branch Of dis
plays, and construct a large liberal arts
building OF such proportions shall in
sure ample room for all domestic exhibits.

ANTICIPATE RAILWAY FIGHT.
Rumored Contest Over Cut Rate-Gould
and Cassatt Roads.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
BALTIMORE. Nd. November 23.-Rail-
road circles here are much interested
in what they regard as the opening Of a
fight between the Pennsylvania and Wa
bash. The Pennsylvania, through its
Northern Central system, has cut its
round-trip rate OF 81 between this city
and York, Pa. fixed by the Western
Maryland, q link Of the Wabash, to Is
cents for the round trip, said to be the
lowest rate ever made for the same mile
age.
Rumors of a fight between the Gould and
Cassatt roads came when the Wabash I'M
dertook to secure an eastern outlet to tide
water by way of Philadelphia. Negotia-
lions were under way for constructing a
line across Pennsylvania and surveys were
made through Chester and Lancaster
counties. At point in the eastern part of
Chester county the survey came to an end,
1t Is said, because the Gould interests en-
countered unsurmountable obstacles placed
in their way, 1t is stated, by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad to prevent the Wabash en-
tering Philadelphia.
Then came the purchase of the Western
Maryland by the Wabash and the process
received by this means an outlet to the
seaiboard in this city: Competition between
Northern Central and Western Maryland,
is very keen here. and the fight for traffic
is being waged at hot pace.
Pennsylvania officials here affect to have
no knowledge of a rate war being on be-
tween the Pennsylvania and Wabash They
admit that there is disparity in the rates
offered by the two roads between this city
and York, Pa, but say there is nothing in
Il to warrant the belief that fight is on
At the Western Maryland offices 1t was
stated that there Isl so far as that road is
concerned no rate war on, and that the
difference in rates to York. Pa, does not in
dictate anything. Well-informed railroad
men. however, say that this is the beginning
of fight to be made on the Wabash lines
by the Pennsylvania railroad.

FIRE ESCAPE ORDERED.
Protest Against Erection Of One on
Three-Story Building.

Attorney Michael ]. Colbert today ap-
peared before the Commissioners and pro-
tested against the demands Of the building
inspector that the owners OF the Thorn
building at 18th and F streets. the second
story of which Is occupied as a business
college, be required to erect a fire escape
the whole heighth Of the building because
the second floor is occupied as school.
Building Inspector Ashford argued that
since the building is three stories high and
is used In part as a school 1t is within the
purview of the law requiring fire escapes.
Mr.. Colbert thought that the erection Of
fire escapes the whole height Of the build
ing is unnecessary to insure the safety Of
the pupils on the second floor.
The Commissioners reserved their de-
cision on the matter and will announce IT
later after consideration.

Noisy Birds of the Night.

From Harper's Magazine.
All the night birds are noisy They can
not consort with one another in happy COM
panies as do the warblers and thrushes and
fnches. and sing and whisper, but must call
loudly and long to one another in the dark
ness. On coasts where petrels and certain
other night-hunting sea birds abound, all
day sitting on their eggs or hiding in bur-
rows. you will hear no sound from morning
till night, but after dark the air is filled
with shrill cries. The loud, reiterated call
ing of the southern chuck-will' s-widow,
and of its northern cousin. are familiar. A
whippoorwill will sound its cry several hum
bred times In succession without pause.
Owls boot, or utter a harsh sort Of laughter,
rarely pleasant to listen to, and night
herons and bitterns squawk and boom.
Sweet songs occasionally heard In the dark
ness are those of wakeful day birds, as the
nightingale or our own oven bird.
