Gen. kuroki's losses in Saturday
and Sundays fighting were 972.
Toxic. Aug. 2.-After a fierce
battle the eastern Russian force ha
evacuated Yang Tseuling (six
miles west of Mo Tien pass.
Gen. Kuroki has administered
severe defeat to the Russian forces
which defended the Russian east
flank at Lao Yang, winning
separate actions at Yushuliksu and
Yangse Pass.
These two places are twenty six
miles apart, but the two actions
were fought at the same time. The
Russians held strong positions. The
thermometer registered over 10
degrees Fahrenheit, and the soldiers
suffered cruelty from the heat and
exhaustion. At Yushulikzu the
Russians mad two divisions of
infantry and some artillery, and
they resisted the Japanese assaults
vigorously.
AeA attacks were begun at dawn
on Sunday, July 81. At Yushulikzu
the Japanese carried the Russian
right and left wings, but on account
of the strength of the main Russian
position they were unable to then
press the attack. The two armies
rested Sunday night facing each
other.
At dawn on Monday the japanese
. renewed the attack and by moor
} they had dislodged the enemy and

Famous Case Moved Again.

The new famous case OF the State VS..
r. w. Mcdaniel has been remandca to
the circuit court OF Lexington county
for a new trial. The case has now be-
come very well known in South Caro-
lima and the opinion Of the Supreme
Court is quite interesting in this cca-
necticn. Mcdaniel killed Lee Neece,
the town marshal Of Swansea, Christ
mas eve, 1902. and was tried for his
life in January, 1868, before Judge
Klugh. The Jury found Mcdaniel gull
tv of murder, with. however, 2. recon-
mendation to mercy. The sentence i'm
posed was life imprisonment. The
defendant appealed to the Supreme
Court and pending the apepal applied
to the Supreme Court for leave to move
in the Circuit Court for new trial on
tie ground of after-discoyered evil
dence. This application failed by rea-
son of an equal division of opinion
among the four justices OF the Supreme
though no formal opinion was
delivered so as to show how the JUS
tices stood on the question.
The appeal was then heard in the
Supreme Court and the sentence was
aGlrmed--Mr Justice Jones delivering
the opinion anu all the other justices
concurrlng. Judge ernest Gary SAT III
place OF Justice Eugene Gary, who was
i'll at the time.
Thereupon the prisoner through his
counsel moved for re-hearing in the
Supreme Court. on the ground that the
court had overlooked an important
principle of the law, to the defendants
disadvantage. After due delibcration
the court granted the re-hearing.
The case came up again at the last
November term Of the Supreme Court.
and was then fully argued-with the
result that the judgment Of the Circuit
Court is set aside and a new trial
granted.

PALMETTO POINTS

Greenwood, Special.-Sheriff Nc
Caslan returned to the city recently
with negro, B. Mathis, who is strong
ly suspected of numbering another ne
gro, Fraser Goode, on Sunday night
The murder was committed on Mr.
Tom Chatham's place and by means
of blunt instrument which was used
as bludgeon, the assailant striking
the negro without warning as he was
going along lonely path from the
home Of a girl he was "courtin to
his own home. The negro who was
killed had carried for years in his
occketbook an old Confederate five
dollar bill and one cent piece for
luck. A bill Of this kind and a one
cent piece was found on the person OF
the supposed murderer. Until the
shEriff went down, there had been no
clue on which to work, the coroner's
jury having failed to find anything,
The circumstential evidence against
Mathis is very strong.

The Fashions for Spring.

Goats and skirts are now being made
OF the same material, but they are no
longer fashioned upon lines Of almost
geometric severity The newest me-
terial for thesG, and one that is rapidly
coming forward is crepe de. Chine.
The spring ccat may be made in any
one of three distinct shapes; one is the
Short. sack coat loose and straight.
which was seen last season; another Is
modified Russian blouse, somewhat
suggestive Of the kimono; third style
is plain, loose coat with cape.
From present indications, two note
worthy features of tie new gowns are
likely to prevail. The more important
is the ever increasing vogue of the
short skirt. The other is the frequent
use of Grapery across the front OF the
waist
Too much Importance cannot be
given TO rthe soft, sheer fabrics that
lend themselves so readily to the
graceful flowing lines of the seasons
modes. The vcles and veilings are.
perhaps. in highest favor. Bordered
materials in SOFT silk and cotton mix
lures, sheer cattcHs and linen canvas
are among the popular novelties. A
CLINT of goll is introduced in every
thing. Cola braids. buttons. frogs,
cords and pendants are some OF the
forms of this military decoration. Laces
that are fine aud firy are the choice
of the moment. 'fne colored cotton
embroideries are among the novelties.
There are lingerie frills and ruchings
without number for the sleeves and
neck of the fashionable gown, and but
tons are conspicaous.-From The De-
lineator for April.

Long War II Necessary.
Toxic, Special.-The government has
not fully disclosed the proposal con-
cerning the war taxes to be submitted
to the special diet, but it now appears
as though it will not propose any
change in the tariff in sugar, but will
instead recommend domestic tax on
the basis previously stated. 1t now
seems probable that the only change
effected in the customs tariff will be
an increased duty On kerosene and
spirits. No discrimination will be made
against Russian kerosene, because that
trade is chiefly in the hands of the
British merchants 1t is anticipated
that there will be a serious contention
in the diet over the taxes on sugar and
silk and dealers in the former COM
modify are strongly agitating for re-
duction in the rate. Party committees
are meeting daily discussing the tax
proposals and the belief is expressed
that the government will be forced to
modify several features Of their plans
If the tobacco monopoly is enacted it
is estimated that it will be ten years
before it is finally completed, although
the government counts upon earnings
from 1t in 1904 amounting to twenty
four million ven. gradually Increasing
Until 1914, when it is estimated they
will amount to forty million yen.
1t is estimated that it will cost the
