Beautiful parks and streets covered

newcomers to gaze at.

Toxic dispatch to the Associated Press
and Japanese official accounts are
the only detailed descriptions that
have yet reached London of the brill
liant Japanese victory at Kin-Chou
which is hailed by the London press
as establishing an even stronger claim
than did the Japanese operations on
the Yalu river to their superiority on
land as we'll as by sea, since in the
case of Kin-Chou the Russians had
ample time carefully to prepare their
positions.
1t appears that the conclusive victo-
ry was Immediately followed up, for

dent says that the Japanese have driven
the Russians from their defenses west
of Talienwan. And if the Daily Tele-

respondent is correct and the Japanese
are already nearingt Port Arthur the
Russians must have suffered a COM
plete rout at Kin-Chou. That this
is the case would also appear from
rumors of the capture of Russian ar

complete blockade around the south
ern end of the Lao Tung peninsula.
This completely envelopes Port Ar

marks the opening of the final in

Chicago, May 27-A special to the

Japan announces that the entire
coast Of the Lao Tung peninsula,
lying south of line between Pitsewo
on the east and Pulantien on the west
is in state of effective blockade by
the Japanese navy. The declaration
states that the blockade will be main

The Japanese government has evl-

peninsula in a state of blockade untll
now, because it is held in internation-

must be maintained by lana as Wen
as by sea- The United States has al

of a naval power competent to enforce

to note that retailers rather than job
bers have made most of the purchases,
thus providing prompt distribution
irto consuming channels throughout
the country Manufacturing lines re-
port q slight improvement at woolea

there is moro idle cotton machinery,
it is worthy of note that the last Fall
