FRESH RUSSIAN TROOPS.
Roenforceme nts From Europe New At the
Outposts.

!speeta, Cable Despatch to TIE sun.
TOXIC, Sept 2e.-The Russian outposts
south of Mukden, which have hitherto
been composed OF troops who fought at
Iiaoyang, now consist Of fresh troops
from Europe. The main strength Of the
Russians is at Tie Pass.
The japan Mail says that the country
east of the railway from Liaoyang to Muk-
den is mountainous to the very banks OF
the Hun River. The succession Of hills
furnishes excellent cover for the army.
Therefore, the Russians do not expect
attack by the direct and easy route over the
plains to the Westward, but through the
mountains from the southeast.
Dispatches from Moi state that the
Russian cruisers Rossia and Gromoboi and
three torpedo boats left Vladivostok on
Sept. FL. 1t has been reported that they
have been sighted off OF OH Shima, at
the eastern extremity of the Strait OF
Corea, but this is denied by the authorities.
A telegram from Pekin says that the
Governor of Sinchan, on the Monaghan
frontier, reports a constant increase in the
number of Russians in the vicinity OF Kas-
hugar. Their presence is disturbing the
people, and the authorities are busy sup
pressing mobs.
In connection with the recent report OF
Lieut.. Gundusi's invasion Of the west coast
of Kamchatka and his defeat by the Rus
slams, who subsequently were reported to
have massacred a number of women and
children, the authorities announce that
the families Of the Japanese fishermen on
Sbumushu Island are safe Nothing is
known, however, Of the fate OF the fisher
men, who, it was said, were absent from
their homes when the massacre was alleged
TO have occurred.

A Chunk of Advice.
Editors West virginian:

Editors West Virginian:
Some people have many things to
be ashamed Of, but for any one to be
ashamed of his own name is some
thing we never heard of until last
evening, when a certain drug store
clerk and another cheap guy who
"hangs out in the Fourth ward con
descended SO much as to commit for
gerry by using the name of another
honest young man living in the city.
You remember, boys, hat forgery
is no little thing, neither does the law
consider it as such.
If o 10 not possess a name which
will win for you respect and honor; a
name hat you would not be ashamed
to use when. talking to any young
lady, you might be able to procure a
good artificial one at Blacka's Racket
store where they sell them for one
cent each. But if you haven't the
price, which is quite likely, Sears,
Roebuck & Co. sends them on sixty
days trial That would be sufficient
time for o to ask a young lady to
go driving and get her refusal.
Now, boys here is my advice:
To the South Side drug clerk:-
Don't go to Monongah any more. it's
dangerous; and be sure to use your
own name at all times, even if it
does have . bad history.
To he other fellow:-Go right
ahead and smoke your cheap ciSa-
rettes borrowed off your friends, but
don't borrow other peoples names.
1t might not be so funny as you
think.

IA s1GNIFIcAMT CHANGE
Financial Barometer For the
Nation.

From the Cincinnati Times-Star.
Probably the most significant fea-
ture of the financial situation in this
%country at the present time is the in
t~creased demand for bonds of recog-
inizede character, both in Wall street
and In other American financial cen
I&ters. 1t will be recalled that during
that rather remarkable period of fl
nancia1 depression which reached its
most acute stage last September. the
bond market was almost as weak
as the stock market. The disastrous
awakening from the wild era of pro-
motion and speculation of the two
years preceding had sickened the in
vesting public of bonds almost as
much as of stocks. People who had
been caught in industrial bubbles Of
the Steel" copper" and "interna-
tionai mercantile marine, type had
been forced to sell what could be
sold at even a considerable conces-
sion in. price in order to make good
losses in low-grade stock which
could not be sold at any price. a
summer it was frequently reported
from Wall street that even ponds Of
the best class could be sold in guam
titles only t prices decidedly lower
than those generally quoted or the
stock exchange.
Wall street is probably supposed
to act as a gauge of the nations
prosperity. Last year the New York
Stock Exchange went a little ahead
of the game, and started "a period of
depression on it's own account. To
day Wall street is very much more
optimistic than it was twelve months
ago. In the slight let-lp in the pros
perity which is in evidence in some
parts of the country to-day is seen a
natural result of Wall streets period
of panic and remorse of about a year
ago. On account of the difficulty
which. many railroads experienced in
floating new loans during the period
of depression, a great deal of work
in the way of new construction and
repair which would now be under
way on railroads all over the United
States was either postponed or aban-
doned. A natural result of this was
a let-up in the demand for iron and
which in turn was followed in
some parts of the country by a slight
in other lines of business
from the radical prosperity of the
years 1901-19O2.
Wall street seems to have recover
ed about as large a proportion of
its good sense as it ever can be eX-
pected to possess at any one time.
from the present aspect of
the bond market, there seems to be
reason for the belief that the
recent period Of financial depression
was not the precursor of that much
talked-of ave of hard times which
pessimists say comes from one
cause or another every fifteen years
merely a reaction from specula-
tive excitement, which, for a time,
may nave brought h~ardships to a few,
but which, for the many. seems to
portend another period of less specu-
lative, but more healthful prosperity
for the country at large after the
