Will Battle
at Tie Pass

Sc. Petersburg, Dot Q. - A special
messenger has brought to the emperor
General KurOpatkin's full report Of the
battle OF Liaoyang. The messenger,
who submitted TO an interview, de-
clases that the main army Ia concen-
trated at Tie pass and that IL Is not
likely General Kuropatkin will make
a determined stand at Mukden. IL Ia
understood that the Third division Of
the guards stationed at Warsaw Is I'M
der orders 90 go % the front. This will
make altogether about 10000 guards
who have bean ordered to the far east.
There were reourrent rumOrs tonight
Of the fall Of Port Arthur. but they
have not tho slightest foundation.
Official advices from the far east
given out today describe a series OF
skirmishes on the southern front OF
General Kuropatkin's army. the only
Importance Of which lies in the fact
that the Japanese are showing q dispO-
sition to press forward and feel out the
Russian positions. General Mistchen-
kos Cossaeks in every case drove back
the opposing forces
The activity Of the Japanese outpOsts
is doubtless intended to screen move
ments Of their armies, and therefore
may be Regarded as precursuiy symp'
toms OF final preparations for an ad'
vance. which probably will begin with
in a week.

out among the Ten Thousand Islands
and further to the south, the waters
and islands in Ponce de Leon Bay
have no further knowledge of their
success. There is an old Conch spong-
er, who plies his trade of gathering
sponges in the waters around Key
West, who says he knows where there
is a sunken Spanish galleon, very
large ship. The wreck lies among the
keys east of Key West.
It is standing upright on the hard
sand bottom in one of the channels,
where the water is not more than
thirty feet deep. tt is partially COW
cred with sand, but not enough to in
terfere with the work of investigation
He says he can go to the exact loca-
ton any day. 1t is some distance from
the open sea. The water where the
wreck lies is never troubled by storms
or high winds.
He has read a good deal and says he
knows the name of the ship. from what

port she sailed, her lading, and her date
OF sailing. He refuses to give the Local
ton to any one or sell it for less than
$4,000. He says he would sell a half in
terest for that amount Then he would
go down there with divers outfit and
remove the treasure at his leisure.
Inc TACT that so many parties come
to Florida to look for buried treasure
IS accounted for in this way: After
these stores of wealth were buried
many of the pirates found homes i'm
distant lands. There they made charts
OF locations where they supposed they
had buried their treasure but their
memories were defective. or they had
failed properly to size up the salient
points of the location at the time of
their visit
