 nattalions of infantry and two squad- rons of cavalry.
 On May 14 and 15 the Japanese rec lonnaisances had not pushed beyond f 1-2 miles from the station of Wafan- dian.
 On May 15 there was no advance of iany considerable force of the enemy to the north of Poladien. i No fresh report has been received Iregarding the Japanese raid on Kai Chau."
 Mukden, May 17.-It was announced here to-day that the main body of the Japanese forces is advancing on Hai Cheng (about ten miles southeast of New ChwangJ and Kai Ping '(Kai Chou, about thirty-five miles south of New Chwang), and that a smaller force is marching in the direction of Liao Yang. Important developments are probable.
 St. Petersburg. May 1S-2 a. n.-Ad- vices received by the general staff show that the Japanese are practically mas ters of all of the southern end of the Liao Tung peninsula, save Port Arthur land the territory commanded by it's guns. This result. so promptly brought about, is due to the failure of the Rus Isians to make opposition of any conse- |quenee to the Japanese advance.
 A member of the general staff said to the Associated Press that the removal |of the guns from the Notifications erected at Kin Chau and the destruc- ton of Port Dalny were primarily for the purpose of concentrating the entire Russian force at Port Arthur If the men and guns were scattered the effect would have been to distribute the means of defense of the fortress over number of points strategically weak. The destruction of Dalny was the re- suit of no sudden determination, but was due to the probability that a force attempting to hold this place could be separated from Port Arthur and cap tured. thus infiicting further loss of prestige to the Russians, which could not be permitted at this time.
 The destruction of Dalny is complete, the breakwater and the buildings, as well as. the piers and docks, having been blown up.

Dr. Smyth said: '.The news of this
 action Of the Western Union company is very gratifying. and the action is
 most commendable, and due credit lshould be given therefor to the com lpany. And this leads me to ask wheth- CT the order is to apply to the com
 pany's service to poolrooms in New
 Haven and other like places in tie state of Connecticut. In the poolroom
 recently raided in New Haven a West lern Union ticker was found. We would
 like to have the benefit of the order ex- tended to us here in Connecticut, as well as in New York city" In conclu- sion Dr. Smyth expressed the hope that
 the order just issued in New York would be honestly and thoroughly car- ried out.

WESTERN UNION STOPS
 SERVICE TO POOLROOMS

ys
 ------------ were sent from the Morris Park track to points in New Jersey from which they were telephoned to the poolrooms In New York. In several instances, it lis said, the desired information was ob- tained by way of Boston and Provi- dence.
 Proprietors of poolrooms are tonight planning the establishment of relay stations in neighboring states and they estimate that the delay in the receipt of race news by this system will not exceed two minutes though the expense to them will be greater.
 Much interest was shown by police officials. as to the effect the Western Unions action would have on the pool rooms and after the company's service had been cut off a raid was made by Inspector Mclaughlin on what was said to be "pool room exchange" " Eleven men were arrested and the po- lice report that the usual business was being conducted, chiefly by telephone.
 District Attorney Jerome expressed
  titude of the Western Union company. He intimated that President Clowry's s order directing the discontinuation of the delivery of reports of horse races to all subscribers in the city of New York, affected legitimate service of the tele- graph company more than 1t did pool rooms, and that the order was "an ef- fort to coerce the public of the service regularly secured. I understand MT. Jerome added, that what is really cut off is the legitimate. sporting news, such as base ball, and all other kindred sport. You might just as well cut off the service of the stock exchange"
 As to race track news. MT. Jerome said, he understood the poolrooms in this city were being supplied by way of Providence. There is not, as I un- derstand," he said. "a poolroom closed in New York to-day"
 Captain F. Norton Goddard, head of the anti-poolroom movement, said that the pool sellers had been notified of the intention of the Western Union to cut off racing reports in season to make arrangements to have results telephon- ed from points in New Jersey and other nearby states. As consequence, Cap tain Goddard declared, T have the di- rect information that the bedrooms of this city were not in the slightest de. gree crippled by the action of the Vest ern Union"

Hartford got as many hits as New Haven in yesterdays game at Savin Rock, but did not have the right kind of luck in punching them. The Capital City men were also unfortunate in the matter of errors, making four to the
 local mems two, and each one of them
 was very costly. The batting made the game interesting, the fielders in general being kept busy. King, the New Ha- ven boy who is catching for Hartford, made a good impression. With four times at the bat he got two base hits and scored one of Hartford's two runs.
 Some of the hits given in the game would undoubtedly have resulted in , outs had the field been in good eondi- tion In three instances the ball was knocked over left field fence, but by a ground rule only two bases were allow

Bridgeport, May 1T.-Mericen won from Bridgeport to-day, f to 8, by su- perior stick work.

FrnnkIin's Idea of Nero.

Seven-year-old Franklin is one of
those bright and alert youngsters
whose fathers would like to tell all
about them if they dared, but who fear
the wrath of their fellows and hold
their peace, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. Franklin goes daily to a Cam
den school with his older sister, who is
in the eighth grade and knows lot
about ancient history and things which
make wonderful stories for the lad to
hear She was telling him the other
day all about wicked Nero, who fiddled
While Rome burned and the boy was
duly impressed. At dinner that night,
in order to discover whether the
knowledge impaired had taken root.
the sister asked the boy:
Who did 1 tell you about to-day %
Nero readily replied the little
learner.
Who was hep was the next ques-
ton.
There was a bit of hesitation, but
finally the answer came out with a
twinkle: "Oh. he was a bird"
We'll, what did he do?'
Ate worms" was the unexpected
reply, which gave the tableful OF dim
ers something of a shiver.

CHURCH TROUBLES IN FRANCE.

The movement in the direction of the
| separation of church and state in
France seems to have received a con-
siderable impetus from the visit Of
President Loubet of that country to the
King of Italy. The visit was displeas-
ing to the Pope. and he sent note to
the sovereigns Of Catholic countries
protesting against it. All Catholics
feel that the King, holding Rome,
usurped the temporal power of the
Pope.
In each note. except the one sent to
France, there was an intimation that
the Pope might consider it necessary
to withdraw his diplomatic representa-
tive from any Catholic country whose
sovereign visited the Quirinal and ig-
nored the Vatican. This intimation
came to the knowledge Of the govern
ment of France, and was productive of
great deal of comment and resulted
in the withdrawal of the representa-
tive of France from the Vatican, and
also Of the first secretary of the lega-
ton. Still the second secretary re-
mains in charge of the embassy, and
diplomatic relations are not wholly
broken off. 1t is the impression that
both the Pope and President Loubet
are DESTROYS of avoiding any further
complications.
1t is the impression that a severance
of diplomatic relations with the Vati-
can wouldn't be displeasing to the
French ministry, though it is probable
that the ministry is hardly ready for
such radical step. Such a severance
would doubtless be followed by the
abolition of the Concordat, which was
adopted over IA century ago. and which
fiXed the relations between church and
state. These relations, in all the
years they have been operative, have
to large extent had the approval of
the people, though, of course, in re-
cent years there has cropped out
good deal of hostility to them. Under
the Concordat the government nomi-
mates the bishops and pays the clergy
their pay amounting to about $S,OO0,-
900 annually
the government would lose control of
the bishops and clergy and the burden
of supporting the church would have
to be borne by the people. The rela-
tion of the church to the state would
be pretty much as it is in this coun-
try. 1t is said that to the younger
Catholics this would be satisfactory,
as they woalld prefer to have the
church relieved of it's dependence up
on the state.
1t is hardly probable that anything
of radical character in the direction
of separation will be done before the
general elections of next year. In
that election it is expected that the
wishes of the people in the matter will
be disclosed.

It is evident that the President
doesn't intend TO encourage the senti-
mtnt in his party in favor of a revis-
ion of the tariff. That was made evil
dent last Wednesday in the Republican
convention of Iowa AS is wen known
there is a big element in the Republi-
can party that wants lower tariff
! schedules, so that the people will be
able to get many things they need at
prices considerably less than those they
now pay. The Iowans are an agri-
cultural people, and they don't like the
ieea of paying for American agricultu-
ra. implements and machines and va
rious other things more than people in
other countries pay for them. The
people of the other states feel about
this matter of the tariff just as the
Iowans do-Republicans as we'll as
| Democrats-only the Republicans of
other states have not been so agrees
sive for tariff revision and reciprocity
as the Iowa Republicans have.
1t will be recalled that President Nc
! Kinley recognized the fact that even
from a Republican standpoint the time
had come for taking off some of tn
protection which the manufacturing
trusts enjoy thus giving the people
more for their money. He said as
much in the last address he ever de-
livered-the address at the Buffalo Ex-
position.
President Roosevelt promised to car
ny out the policies of President Me-
Kinley, and for year or two after he
became the chief executive the inn
preston was gained from his speeches,
that he was going to lend his influence
to tariff revision.
Since he began his campaign for the
presidential nomination, however. he
has given no encourag cement to those
who want the tariff revision. His
friends in the Iowa convention said
stand pat" and the efforts of those
who favor lower tariff schedules to get
something in the platform in favor of
lower tariff failed. Indeed, they were
shown but little consideration by the
convention. only six of them being
named for delegates to the Republican
National Convention.
And why is it that the President has
abandoned the Mckinley tariff policy?
The reason is plain. The Republican
party is in control of the orotectionists
They own the manufacturing interests
and are the greatest and most powerful
combination in the country. They form
trust, in comparison with which all
other trusts are insignificant. That
trust dominates Mr.. Roosevelt. and
that is why he isn't favoring tariff re-
vision any more. The only way to
have the tariff revised and to break up
that trust is to put the Democratic par
ty in power.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Montgomery Advertiser (Dem.J
says: THE only hope for the preser.
walton of genuine republican govern,
nient in the United States lies in the
Democratic party. Every time the Re-
publicans find an opportunity to strike
a blow at the rights of the states
they do so and thus undermine the
very foundations of our system of GOV
eminent. The hope for the perpetual
ton of our liberties lies in Democratic
supremacy and all Democrats should
see 1t and act on that knowledge"
The Charleston Post (Dem.) says:
Tom Johnson of Ohio is whooping it
up for Joe Folk of Missouri as the
most promising man for the Democrats
to nominate for President. Folk is a
splendid fellow and he will be heard
from in the future, but just now his
work is in Missouri, to rid the state
of boodlers and grafters and he is not
likely to be called to lead the Demo-
Gratis of the nation. And the fact that
Tom johnson picks him as the best
candidate is rather unfortunate for
him, anyway"
The Philadelphia Record (Dem)
says: The women who want to vote
and to sit on juries and to plead in
object to the kind of literary pabulum
furnished by the newspapers for the
especial behoof of women readers. But
the poor publishers find themselves
compelled TO consult the desires of the
womanly women as well as the de-
mands of the manly women. The
hvmekeepers are as a thousand to one
Of the strong minded who prefer to
keep in the public eye. And there you
are"
The Memphis Commereial-Appeal
(Dem.) says: Twill it be Roosevelt
and Hit or Roosevelt and Fairbanks?
Mr.. Hit evidently wants the Office, and
Fairbanks does not. The latter has
presidential aspirations, and so has his
rival, young Mr.. Beverage. who would
like to get him out of the Senate for
the next four years. The ensuing quad
rennium will be an important epoch i'm
our history, and Fairbanks is sagacious
enough TO see that he will make more
reputation as a senator than as Vice
President Therefore, we place our
money on old man Hit and his mil
iona"
