WAR VIEWS OF EXPERTS.
Russian Hope in the Arrival of the
 Home Corps.

Washington July 31.-The military authorities believe now that the only hope for Russian obstruction of Jap anese plans of advancement will be the arrival on the field of action of the two army corps from home gaTrisons. They are probably better soldiers and are very likely better officered than the force which has steadily fallen back before the Japanese. The invaders at the Yalu met the Siberian reserves who have the quality Of untrained militia men of this country, probably without the intelligence of the Americans. It is estimated that the home corps must be by this time well on toward the thea- tre of operations, though no one Is able to say that the Japanese, who are in a position to anticipate the Russian movement, have not correspondingly strengthened their own lines.
 The experts are still wondering over the action of the Russians in attempt
 ing to relieve Port Arthur. It is fig
 ured out that the movement was not
 of Kuropatkin's authorship. and that
 he had as little to do with it as anyone not on the scene. It is believed that it
 is an example of the operations of 1
 home strategy board, the instructions of which failed to reach Kuropatkin
 until after the value of such a reliev-
 ing body had passed. So far as the
 American officers may judge of the in
 cident, it is recognized as one of Rus
 sia's mistakes in the present war.
 The military information division of the general staff here has been delv- ing among the records and has ob taired from foreign sources a descrip- tion of the defenses at Port Arthur. The description is that Of the condition
 which existed just before the war, and | officers here believe that the works have been materially strengthened since hostilities began by more eXten- | sive entrenchments and by the addition
 of naval or seacoast guns. There is no | fertilization in this country to which | reference may be made by way of com ] parison with Port Arthur, where ad- 1 vantage has been taken of the natural
 geographical situation 70 add to the re- | sisting and offensive qualities of the
 works. The artillery experts say that l the description. which is tco technical | for popular comprehension. shows a i system of forts which might be regard | ed as formidable. They do not cali | them impregnable, however largely for 1 the reason that no fort is invulnerable against a foe which keeps at the at
 tack. There are so many ways of re- l ducing a fort, to say nothing of the
 chance opportunity, ,tiIIt no artillery
 officer will promise that the Japanese will be kept out of Port Arthur. All
 that the attacking force needs. they
 say, is time
 | Judging from what has been done al- ready, it is expected that if the Japa-
 nese will adopt the approved method of attack and will reduce Port Arthur ac- | cor6ing to the recognized rules laid

 Having used up all their explosives, they made off in the darkness. The mail car and the passengers were not dis turbed. The explosions badly wrecked the express car. They local safe did not contain any money, consequently the robbers did not secure anything
 A posse from Dalhart headed by Sheriff J. N. Webb was rushed to tha scene of the hold up, and at a late hour this afternoon it is said they have the robbers surrounded and ex pect to make a capture.

Chicago. July 31.-Both packers and strikers spent Sunday in strenethenin.- the weak spots in their defenses. pre- palatory to another woek Of efTo.t Ia bring their opponents to terms. All the plants were operated during the forenoon In order to get rid of the live stock that had been left over from "a =t week. The remainder of the day WIS spent by Hhe employers in installing new men and arranging many of the week. Over 1000 men were added 10 the number already at work in the dif- ferent plants. Among today's arrivals were many skilled laborers. something the packers have been sadly in need of ever since the strike started
 The strike leaders spent the greater part of the day in preparing a state ment ito the public. In this statement the unionists explain their side of the controversy. declaring that it Is the packers and not the men who are re- sponsible for the present state Of as- fairs in the packing industry The pub lie is asked to be lenient with the mex during the strike, it being declared by the union leaders that it will be inpos- sible for the men to work under the conditions wirich existed before tho strike was called, and that up tO the present time the packers have shown no disposition to treat the strikers In fair amnner.
 According to this statement. the men will stay on strike until their unions are disrupted or until the packers su-- render.

WEAKENING AT K. C.
Market Conditions Are Gradually
 Approaching Normal.

Kansas City. Mo, July S1--The cat tie supply last week was moderate un- til yesterday. when $500 head came in. which is a little too many for the pres enu situation. Prices have been high r each day until yesterday. when nearly 75 per cent of the receipts were beef steers, and late sales Of medium steers were 10 to 20 cents lower. The best were steady; top S6.OO. top fed western CTS $5.75. Butcher cattle were scarce and strong to 10 cents higher. Heifers sold at $5.S5, heavy cows at S4-OO- Grass native steers bring s5.25 for best, and westerns a little less. Shippers have been advised against sending in com mon stuff which accounts for the large percentage of good killing cattle here today. Some of the strikers wenS back to work at the plants here yesterday. and more of them applied today. so that it looks like the backbone of the strike was broken. Shippers can now safely send in two-thirds of normal supply, but should spread iJ over the week, and have some here every day Country buyers have begun to Inquire for stockers and feeders, and sales of same yesterday were strong to 10 cents higher. ranging from $30O to $4-50. IT shippers can use the same good juds- ment they have shown sO far during the strike for a little while longer in marketing lightly. the loss to cattle dealers account of the strike will not be heavy.
 Hogs are up and down, and not very reliable. Sales yesterday were the highest since last October. leaving the top at S5.55. bulk at S5.35 to S5-50. light hogs up to $5.45. Four packers are buying. besides a very good shipping demand nearly every day.
 So few sheep have been coming that little interest has been shown by the packers. Yesterday. however. they ad- vised that they could use 1000 or 1.5eo head per day at present. and it would be safe to send in moderate shipments Stock and feeding sheep have been moving at s25O to s3.25. Spring lambs have sold at s5.S5. and some common ewes brought S3.25 yesterday.

HELD ON ARSON CHARGE
A NORTH SIDE RESIDENT AC-
oUsED, OF TRYING TO COLLECT
FIRE INSURANCE: FRAUDU-
LENTIY.

Rolla Chrisman, l. living at 1903
Sixth avenue N, was arraigned in po-
lioe court this morning, charged with
arson. He is alleged to have set fire
to his house after he had taken out
800 insurance. He waived exam1na-
ton and was held to the grand jury.
Chrisman and members Of the fam
lily are said by the police, to admit
that he took out the insurance with
the intention of burning the place, but
the prisoner denies that the: fire was
started in this instance. In this case
they say it was accidental and can
prove it. .-......' - -..t -.
The detectives who are working on
the case say that Chrisman got per-
jured witnesses to swear that he was
the owner of the place when, In real.
ity, it belonged to his mother. They
say that. If he cannot be convicted or
arson, an attempt will be made to
prosecute him for deliberate fraud
against the insurance company. --&,-
