Trumpg il Japanla Hands.

Chez Eco, March 4.-The position at
present is briefly as follows:
Although the Japanese have lost a
small cruiser and had the machinery
on battleship and another vessel
damaged, these latter are probably
now fully repaired. In any case, she
possesses complete command at sea,
and will, throug: her sea power, eff
fectually blockade and isolate Port Ar
thur.
In the meantime, the Japanese seem
to have decided to make an advance in
strength along the Pekin roadway to
Seoul. Her forces have already adj
vanced from the Korean capital, and
having secured the Yalu river, they
will threaten Kirin, cutting off the rail
way and menaclng Yladivostok, while
another force deals with the Tiao
Tung peninsula. When the rlgor OF
the winter has moderated, | anticipate
an eruption of territory near Dalny.
The first big land victory for the
Japanese, which is more than likely if
she keeps her troops in country
where Cossack cavalry is of little val
ne, will mean an authorized rising of
the Chinese, who will lend a great
helping hand, for the Manchurian
hcrsemen are bigger, better and bray

JAPS OVERRUNNlNG MANCHURIA.
Much Uneasiness in st. Petersburg by Japanese Ac-
tivity in Making Events Happen.

ST. Petersburg, March 4,-Much un-
easiness has been caused in high cir
clos here by the making public of the
fact that Japanese troops are pract-
cally overrunning Manchuria along the
head waters of the Yalu, and are now
within only $50 miles OF Kirln and
Mukden and have control OF most Of
the country on the upper Yalu and
along the Tumsen river. 1t is official
ly stated that $500 Japanese on Feb.
10 landed near Song Chin, half way be.
tween Gensan and Vladivostok. Three
transports took them here conveyed
by three warships.
Immediately after landing at night
the Japanese started across Korea,
leaving small force to go north along
the coast and connect with troops that
are believed to be at Posslet Bay. on
ly eight miles from Vladivostok.
The main body despite Russian as
surance, had a good road through the
countryA They are now believed to be

atory to descent upon Mao Cur Chan,
fortified town ON the Manchurian
side of the alu, at a junction of the
tram roads that lead to Kirin and lMuk'

can send raiding parties, or on the
continuation of tho road south along

Constipation leads to worse. Often it is

Simeon Bencion Volpiansky, a Sa-

changed, and the request was grant
ed. Henceforth he will be known to
the world as Simeon Bencion Volpian.
The petitioner was represented by At
torney James r. Evans.
The reasons given for asking a
change OF name were that people could
neither spell nor pronounce the old
name and that II interfered with his
business, the constant misspelling of
his name on letters causing many to
be lost. In order to protect himself
from business Inconvenience and loss
he is now just Volpian.
The following applications for char
ter were granted by Judge Cam: New

MODERN ACHILLES IN
PURSUIT OF AN AUTO.
bicycle officer Had "A Lively Chase
After Red Devil.


AS relentlessly as did the hero of
Homer's Illiad follow the .despicable
Hector, did Bicycle Officer Christie pur-
sue a fleeing autoist, who cared not
for municipal speed governors, or the
safety of scampering pedestrians at
dusk yesterday.
The alert cycle patrol was cruising
just off Bull street and Estill avenue
under one bell pressure, when the
strange looking craft came skimming
along under two bell pressure. For a
moment the master Of the small craft
pounded along in amaZement at the
speed of the approaching vessel. which
was sending up great clouds of spray
in its wake.
A second or two brought the two
alongside each other. The patrol hail
ed the flying stranger. Two fog horn
toots of warning greeted him, and he
narrowly missed being cut in twain.
The first law had hardly ceased its as
sertion with the patrol before instinct
prevailed, and putting on two bells
pressure he raced down Bull channel
in stern pursuit of the violator of the
harbor regulations.
Turning into Drayton roads near
Park Extension the two flying craft
were but little closer together than at
the start, but on going further up the
shipping became more intricate and
the smaller craft had less trouble in
racigating the intricacies. At the
Oglethorpe the big red thing gave one
long hoarse blast of defiance and rae
ed off down Oglethorpe to Price and
then out to the Thunderbolt, leaving
the smaller craft far in its wake.
Master Christie tied UP alongside
headquarters and reported speaking to
the strange craft, but in the darkness
he was unable to sight her ensign.

Immediately after Judge Cam had

Court grand jury yesterday morning,
the hearing of uncontested cases, in
Guiding divorces, began.
There were not as many cases taken
UP as in usual on the opening days of
the different terms, though this fact is
probably because this is a new term
and cases were not filed in time. The
following is the record of the day:
first verdict was given in the
case of Florence Turner against Frank
Turner.
Second verdicts and DEGREES were
given in the cases of G. C. Perry
