ADMIRAL TOGO
Reports the Operations
Against Russian Fleet

Washington, D. c., Aug. 12-The jap
anese legation has received from
Toxic the following dispatch:
Admiral Togo reports that the Rus
sian squadron proceeded southwark af-
ter its sortie from Port Arthur on the
10th and was attacked by our combin-
ed feet 25 miles southeast of Port Ar
thur which then pursued in an easterly
direction. Sharp fighting from /
o'clock to sunset.
. The enemy apparently suffered heavy
damages and later his fire flattened
greatly while his battle formation was
greatly deranged.
The Askold, Novik, Czarevitch, Pal
lada and some torpedo destroyers fed
southwark and the rest Of the feet
probably fed to Port Arthur after a
night attack by our destroyers and tor
pedo boat fiotilla. Our feet suffered no
serious damages, Our total casualties
were no."

London, Aug. 13.-The London Daily
Chronicle this morning prints an inter-
view with Mrs. Florence Maybrick, OBJ
tained In Southern France where the
American woman has been spending
her time since her release from prison
in England Mrs. Maybricl is descrtb-
ed as being clear witted and outspoken
and Is mildly robust despite the years
spent behind prison walls. Her face
is somewhat drawn, showing the traces
Of grief and suffering, while her eyes
have the listless appearance customary
after the monotonous routine Of prison
life. The Chronicle however, declares
that Mrs. Maybrick has every appear
and an entire absence Of nervousness
or embarrassment.
Her first remark to the interviewer,
according to the Chronicle, was re-
quest that he express her thanks for
the congratulations she has received
from all parts Of the world on her re-
lease.
please tell every one" she is quoted
as saying that am as firm In pro-
testing my innocence of the accusation
on which was imprisoned as the day
/ was sentenced, and am praying for
the time to come when my innocence
will be proved to the world"
Speaking of the incidents of her i'm
prisonment, Mrs. Maybrick declared
she had been shown nothing but kind
ness by the officials, and recalled visits
by Lord Rothschild, Home Secretaries
Asquith and Ridley, Lord Russell and
others of whose efforts in her behalf
she sIyaks in the most grateful terms.
She said as coon as certain legal mat
ters In which she is interested are
disposed of. she will visit friends and
then travel.

Mrs. Maybrick said:

sidered before that could be decided.

THE: CAR
WILD WITH JOY OVER SON
AND HEIR
BETTER THAN VICTORY
He Has Not Yet Gained
Over Japs.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 13.-The czar
is wild with joy over the birth of a
son to the empress. He was the cen
ter of an ever.changing group at Peter
hof last evening, high government dig
nitaries, priests of the church, court
attaches and representatives of the
foreign colony having access to the
court surrounding him, and pressing
their congratulations.
81 am happier over the birth of an
heir" declared the car, in response to
fluctuations thar over victory of
the troops, for now l can face the fu-
true with calmness. feeling no
alarm, because l know by this sign
that the war will be brought to a
happy conclusion"
In celebration of the auspicious
birth, grand state banquet was given
last evening at Peterhof. Although a
gorgeous function, it was attended on.
ly by the members of the inner circle
of the imperial family.
The cZarina is reported to have
emerged from her accouchment in a
very weakened condition, her suffer
ing having been most severe, but the
court physicians have pronounced her
present condition satisfactory and a
rapid recovery is anticipated.
1t is confidently expected in govern.
ment circles that the czar will COM
memorate this most gratifying Incl
dent Of his reign by an imperial ukase
pardoning a great number of political
prisoners. Under the present tension
in the internal affairs Of Russia, it is
generally believed that such action,
coupled with patriotic joy on the part
of the populace at the birth Of an heir
to the throne, would be the most salut.
airy policy the czar could pursue.
According to bulletin posted at
late hour, both the czarina and her
child were well and progressing fav-
Orably

Che FOO incident
Considered of Little Inn
W portance.

Washington, ID. c., aug 12.-The
Japanese minister here regards the Che
Foo incident as of but little import
ance. He has not yet received complete
advices of the subject hut those at hand
no says indicate justification for the
action Of the Japanese officers. Mr..
Takahira believes that II the cutting
out" Of the Russian torpedo boat at
Che Foo Is proven to be without war
rant japan will make such reparation
as will prevent China being drawn
into the eastern war. He says the in
terests of Japan surpass those of any
other nation and she will do all that Is
honorable to prevent injury following
the action at Che Foo.
Some state department officials con-
slider the incident serious and calcu-
lated to impair the neutrality Of China.
Secretary Hay does not agree with
the opinions While he thinks the in
cident is an unfortunate one he be-
lieves It will be adjusted with but lit
tie trouble and without bringing China
into the conflict.

REPLEV|N SUIT
Rothe Wants to Recover
Talk Machine.

A replevin suit was commenced In
Justice Spitler's court yesterday after
noon by Richard Rothe to recover a
phonograph and accompanying records
from the Collateral Loan company
Rothe is saloon keeper in the north
east of Canton and he claims that his
property is worth 800, which he
loaned to William H. Miller, of this
city, so that he could entertain his
friends. Time passed, it seems, and
Rothe's hospitable spirit soon became
eXtinguished as Miller and his articles
of loan failed to appear
Investigating the actions of the abb
sentee Rothe discovered that Miller had
taken his phonograph and records to
the Collateral Loan company where he
secured mortgage on them The
goods are now in possession of Con-
stable Elsou. 1t was thought by peo-
pie acquainted with the case that Mil
Ter had absconded although in Justice
Barrick'. court yesterday e. G. Bach
ert president of the Collateral Loan
company had the papers issued for ar
rest.

THE TRIBUNE
IS THREE DIFFERENT KINDS
OF A LIAR ..
PARKER MAKES DENIAL
In Terms Both Specific
and Vigorous.

Rosemount, Esopus, N. Y, Aug 49,
Mrs. Darwin X. James, Mrs. Margaret
Dey Ellis, Mrs. M. J. Gilderseeve and
Mrs. +. s. Bennett, representing the
Interdenominational Council of Women
for Christian and patriotic service, were
Judge Parkers visitors today. They
came to urge the nominee to incorpor-
ate in his letter of acceptance vigor.
Gus anti-Mormon pronounciamepto and
to so conduct himself in case of elec-
tion that polygamy shall be rooted out
of the United States for evermore.
Judge Parker took cognizance to.
night of the persistent reports eircuIat-
ed that he departed from the text of his
speech of acceptance as originally
framed and made q sensational refer
ence to the gold plank. Through his
secretary tonight he gave out the FOL
lowing statement:
THE speech of acceptance was deliv-
cred precisely as it was written and
printed In the advance copies, save fol-
one or two absolutly unimportant omis-
sions and one or two slips due to the
difficulty the speaker found in reading
typewriter copy, which was water
soaked long before the address was
completed. Stenographers took the
speech as it was delivered and a score
of reporters followed the text In the
advance copy and not one noted any
essential or even trivial addition and
scarcely any omission.
For some reason the New York Tri-
bune today prints an article entitled
Quiet Play for Wall Street. in which
it states as a fact that Judge Parker
did make interpolation which its Esop-
us correspondent had informed it he
did not make. The article begins:
why did Judge Parker make an in
terpolatiCn in his speech of acceptance
and not have 1t incorporated in the
official copy of his utterances sent to
the press associations?
ut then says there can be no doubt
whatever that the judge uttered the
sentence attributed to him. quotes the
language which he is alleged to bave
used, and adds: Naturally the Repub-
lican politicians did not propose to al
low double shutting of that sort to GO
unchallenged.'
This is absolutely untrue. There
was no deviation from the original
manuscript. The after thought publi-
cation in this paper today Is untrue in
eyery particular in every statement of
fact and in every inference"

Washington, d. c., Aug. 1.-THE 200
Porto Rican teachers who are being
taken upon tour of the educational
institutions Of the United States wei @
warmly greeted by President Roosevelt
in the east room of the White House
this afternoon and each one given a

In greeting and wishing them un-

other things:
II greet you with peculiar pleasure
and interest, because this body and
those like them who are engaged in
the work of education in Porto Rico
are doing that work which more than
any other is vital TO the future % the
island. We must have education in its
broadest and deepest sense-educasion
of the heart and soul as well as of the
mind-in order to fit any people to do
its duty among the free peoples of pro-
gress in the world. And | trust that
you here, you teachers, you men and
women engaged in preparing the next
generation to do its work realize fully
the weight of the responsibility resting
upon you. Accordingly as you here
in this room and your colleagues do
your work well or i'll 1t depends as to
how the next generation of Porto Ri
cans shall do their work in the world
Nothing in this world comes to people
who will not work. Nothing worth
having comes to those who do not or
are not willing to make an effort to
get it,"

THE TENSION
WITH TURKEY HAS BEEN
LESSENED
CRISIS IS NOT PASSED
But Warships May Be
Sent Home.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 1.-THE ex-
treme tension in the diplomatic nego-
tiations now in progress between this
government and that of Turkey has
been lessened.
Tonight all information tends to the
belief that peaceful adjustment of
differences will be reached. The crisis
is not passed, but the advices from
Minister Leishman that negotiations
have been resumed by the sultan is
viewed with much favor at the state
department.
The cabinet today devoted almost
the entire session to the consideration
of the subject. AS result instructions
have been cabled Rear Admiral Jewell,
who notified the navy department this
morning of his arrival.
Several messages have been exchang-
ed between Minister Leishman and the
state department but their nature was
not made public. The only information
given Is that there are expectations Of
a speedy and satisfactory settlement
of the questions over which conflict
has been threatened.
1t is said that the battleship squadron
under command of Read Admiral
Barker. which was ordered to return
to Gibraltar. will be brought home
from there at once.

promoting the street railway which is
to be constructed from SteuDenville

Friday with the county commissioners
to discuss the rignt-of-way proposition,
but the matter went over to q future

a franchise until they had made an
inspection of the road. They will drive
over the proposed route the early part
of the coming week in company with
the prosecuting attorney who will then
frame franchise which will be sub
