Wilhelm ahead of Deutsch-
lands Time at SciLLy Islands.

When the North German Lloyd liner Kaiser
Wilhelm II reaches Plymouth. England, to-day,
II is possible that she will have broken all rec
ords for the passage between New-York and
Plymouth. This much coveted record, since
September. 1900. has been held by the Ham
burg American liner Deutschland, which crossed
in days. hours and 3S minutes. This time
viii probably be lowered by some minutes. ac-
cording to figures on the time of both passages
from NewYork 10 the Sciily Islands. which the
Kaiser Wilhelm II passed at 1O:55 O'Clock last
night.
In 1900 when the Deutschland made her rec
ord. she passed the Scilly Islands just days,
hours and 80 minutes after she left New
York. The Kaiser Wilhelm H. which sailed
from New-York last Tuesday, for Plymouth.
Cherbourg and Bremen. passed the Sandy Hook
Lightship at about 1:32 p. Her time OF pas
sage 20 the Sclly Islands is approximately 8
days. hours and 23 minutes. From these fig
ures IL appears that the Kaiser Wilhelm III is
seven minutes ahead of the record of the
Deutschland. Until the time OF her arrival off
the Eddystone Lighthouse is known il cannot
be correctly ascertained whether she has broken
OF eQualled the transatlantic record.

AToukden. oct. 9.-The Russian forward move
nent has begun. and Bentsiapudza has been
captured with small loss.
In order 10 get q clear understanding Of the
situation It may be stated that two days ago
the japanese had ten divisions confronting the
Russians north Of the Tai-Tze River. Their
left flank. consisting Of two divisions. was on
the railway at Sandiapu, thirty miles southwest
OF Moukden and close 10 the Hun River. Their
centre OF four divisions occupied the railway
between Liao-Yang and Chandiapudza. twelve
miles north TWO moro divisions occupied the
extreme Japanese right along the road between
Bentsiapudza and Pensihu. Their front ex-
rended about ffty-two miles.
The position at Bentsiapudza was strongly
fortified and intended TO Withstand attack. II
Is reported that General Kuroh was there in
person. The japanese had omitted to fortify one
hill. which was the key to the position The
Russians. aware Of this omission, made wide
awning movement eastward, and seized the hill
with little opposition. The hill once occupied
exposed the whole japanese position to a heavy
Ranking fire.
The Russians also turned the Japanese right.
and the fortified positions thus becoming
tenable. the japanese were forced to withdraw
hurriedly from Bentsiapudza. lighting a rear
guard action. in which they suffered heavily.
The Russian losses throughout were small. al
though severe opposition had been expected.
General Mistchenko's cossacks had been har-
rying the japanese outposts for several days
and were entirely successful in a number of en-
gagements.
The Russian southern advance began on oe-
sober with the occupation Of shakhe rail-
way station. The next day the station. which
had been dismantled by the japanese. was re-
stored by the Railway Brigade following i'm
medately behind the fighting line. and the same
brigade also restored the bridge across the
Shakhe River. On October General Mistchen-
ko advanced almost TO the Yentai mines driving
in the japanese outposts with heavy loss at the
expense Of only one killed and five injured.
The Russian forward movement is being made
IN the heaviest marching order. Every man car

THE CAR MAY ADVOCATE.
Palace Revolution impending At St
~. Petersburg.


London, May 14.-Evidently
there is pretty strong expectation
in official quarters here that a
palace revolution will be among
the next events to happen in St.
Petersburg. Rumor has is that the
car is anxious to abdicate. which
means that Grand Duke Vladimir
is influencing him with a view to
his own accession.
Grand Duke Michael. the car
brother and heir assumptive, who
is consumptive and otherwise a
weakling, has always been willing
to renounce his rights. He would
have done so long ago but for his
mother. the dowager empress, who
is probably also the chief obstacle
to his brothers. retirement.

WHILE the Lott railroad will
hardly be completed into Browns
vile by June 1. owing to the fact
hat construction must necessarily
be slower for the last ten miles as
this part lies chiefly through the
rice district, and also on account of
the bridge to be built across the re-
SAGA at the edge of town, still it
will undoubtedly be here by the
middle of June and ready for bust
ness. by July, according to agree
ment, as Colonel Lott announces.
The great day a-coming for
this town is fast drawing near, and
then maybe there will be some sure
enough shouting on the lower River
Grand. Old Brownsville is going
to celebrate that day in due style,
and everybody is invited to- come
down and help.
