received a letter from the san Fran

him in a Salt Lake bank. and this
amount mas now been paid over to the

Russian War Office Awaiting News
From the Front.

st. Petersburg, July 30.-At 1870 a.
N. the general staff announced that
there was no news from Port Arthur
and no more reason to credit the report
that IL had fallen than the many sim
liar ones previously in circulation.
1t was pointed out that no line Of off,
clal news has been received from Port
Arthur this week and that since the
occupation OF YiukOw by the japanese
anything from the fortress was likely
70 reach Mukden first and then be given
cut by Niceroy Alexieff. There is no
official confirmation of the reported
sinking OF "a cruiser and gunboat on
July -.
The information contained in the dis
patches Of the Associated Press that
the center Of gravity of the military
area viii be shifted north is strength
ened tonight by the knowledge that one
Of the prominent Russian correspond
ents is proceeding TO join Lieutenant
General Linevitch's headquarters near
Nladivostok. This might indicate a
move toward Korea from this direc-
ton.
II mas been aScertained that General
EUROPA tkin was at Anping during the
right at Ia Tche kiao. and il is believed
he is sim there, which would indicate
that he expects General KuFoki VIII
