st. Petersburg, Sept. 10, / so a. m.
1t seems to be a definitely estab-
lished fact that Field Marshal Oya-
mas tired troops practically aban-
doned on Wednesday the attempt TO
head off Gen. Kuropatkin and the
latter's army has arrived safely at
Mukden, after frightful experiences
houndering through mud and mire
over the mandarin road
Some descriptions OF the scene
along the line OF retreat are almost
incredible. They tell how the men
lay down in the mud and slept ia
a drizzling rain without shelter.
II is evident that the last deter
mined effort to bring Kuropatkln 10
bay was made on Tuesday, but
Russian commander in chief faced
about and with two corps with ar
tillcry beat of the japanese while
the remainder Of the troops contlnn'
ed the march to Mukden. After this
the japanese could only hang on TO
the flanks and shell the retrcating
columns from the hills. The out
posts are still in contact but they
are not even exchanging shots.
A late Associated Press dispatch
tonight from Mukdcn describes the
horrible plight of the soldiers. Ths

PROGRESO FIRE

BUSINESS BLOCK WAS WIPED OUT

BUSINESS BLOCK WAS WIPED OUT

ProSrcso, Yucatan, Sept. "a fire
broke out here at an early hour yes
tcrday and famed by strong gulf
breeze, ragged unchecked all day and
did not yield to the efforts of tic vol
untecr firemen, whose apparatus was
wholly inadequate to cope with Il con
Migration of such magnitude. The
lire wiped out an entire block OF
business houses, which, for the most
part, were two story structures oc-
;upied by firms engaged in the gen
raj merchandise business.
The territory wiped out by the fire
consists of the square two blocks
Outh of the water front and facing
II one of the principal pla2as, direct
opposite the custom house.
The origin of tn fire is unknown,
nut it is thought to have started In
he leather novelty importing house
Nf Casanova Brothers, which Occu-
,'ed a store in the middle of the
block. From there it spread rapidly
nd soon the entire block, which was
occupied by a large dry goods con-
crn. several Offices occupied by COM
'issicn brokers, large wholesale
nj retail grocery house. coffee eX-
porting house, a hidde house, drug
,ouse and several store houses were
ompletely wiped out.
Fire fighting apparatus was sC"'
" special train from Merida, the
apital of Yucatan, to aid in fighting
he flames and although this assis-
rnce did not reach Progresso until
very late hour, and after much dam
ge had been wought, the Merida
'remen rendered valuable assistance
nd probably prevented tn spread of
re flames.
The loss will approximate $400 900.

James Baker, a we'll known traveller
and writer, tells a curious story OF q
war 100 years ago. The Persian shah
was besieging Tiiiis, and the husband
OF the Princess Salome had been slain
In the siege. When the Pers,ans en-
tered and sacked the town Salome
tried to save her young son, but he was
torn from her arms and hacked In
pieces before her eyes. Her wi life
was spared and she was borne to the
camp outside the walls of Tiflis to the
shah. He sold her to Djafar Bek, who
shut her up in Il castle-a part Of which
still reimbursement where now Is the
lovely tropical botanical garden OF
Tifis. Charmed by her beauty, he ask
ed her to become his wife. She re-
fused and begged her purchaser to
Stay her. The Persian gave her u night
