Bodies of the two engineers remained
for hours under the wreckage of the
immense locomotives. In a day coach

senger were the only persons who es-
capped alive. The congressman's legs
were pinioned, but he extricated him

THE SINGER AT THE
EXPOSITION.
3i3 Main

The name of SINGER stands
for ''family sewing machine in every
known language. The familiar sign
with its brilliant carmine as" is found
in everycity in the world, and no prod
uct of American skill is better known,
or has a wider vogue.
The fact that Singer machines
are "made for every stitching pro-
cess" used in manufactures is not so
well known and most visitors to the
Exposition will be greatly interested
in the exhibit to be made by THE
SINGER MANUFACTURING COM
PANY.
There will be two Singer pavil-
ions, one in the Manufactures Building,
from the American factories, and one
in the Varied Industries Building,
from the British factory.
Here one may see the practical
manufacture of Corsets, Muslin Un-
derwear, Shoes, Mems Wear, ETC., by
operatives from leading establish
ments in these industries. There will
be machines for stitching the heaviest
rubber and leather betting, for making
a dozen dainty tuclSs at once, for
attaching all kinds of buttons, hooks
and eyelets, for sewing sails, for
stitching kid gloves and furs, in short,
for everything that can, or might
be stitched.
There are eighty, or more dis
tinct types of Singer sewing machines
for manufacturing purposes, and these
types are adapted to many hundred
varieties for thousand or more spe-
cial uses, all interesting and educa-
tional to the great majority of people.
The display of Art Needlework,
for which the Singer Company has
long been noted, will excel anything
previously shown; and the various
types OF sewing-machines for family
use will include some new designs
recently perfected and about to be
placed on the market.

CAPTURED SEVERAL.
Japanese Have Taken Important Po-
sitions Around Port Arthur.

SittonS Hround ForI Nrtnur.
Chefoo. Sept. 27.-As a result OF the
battle before Port Arthur. which began
on Sept. 10. the Japanese succeeded
in capturing several important posi-
lions. end now the Russian tenure OF
the big forts guarding the north. north
east and northwest sides OF tho town
are seriously threatened. Chinese in
formation places the Japanese losses
under 5000 for the three days fighting.
and this comparatively small casualty
list is due to the excessive care used
by the Japanese in making prepara-
lions for the advance. Russian sourc-
es. however. claim to have information
that the japanese losses were unusu-
ally severe. amounting to fully thres
times the number mentioned above.
Possibly the most important capture
during the three days fighting was that
Of Fort Kuropatkin. which. while of
minor status with regard to prevent
Ing the entrance into the town OF the
japanese. had been constructed for
the purpose OF protecting the source
OF the garrison's water supply. The
control of this water supply is now In
the hands of the japanese.

OCEAN LINER ON FIRE
Passengers and Crew OF the Steamer Queen

After Taking to Boats.

I Seattle, Wash, March q1.-Captain

located in the after saloon. When l
came on deck the flames were shoot
ing thirty feet high out of the saloon
skylight. We commenced playing
water on the fire, but it continued to
gather Roadway until the whole after
part of the ship was in flames. When
it looked impossible to keep the fire
under control I. gave orders to clear
away the boats, filling those on the

DETAINED AS AN ANARCHIST.
Supreme Court Orders Enslishnan's
Release on Bail.

Washington, March LIN the SUI
preme court of the United States an
order has been issued for the release
of John Turner on bail and setting the
hearing of his case by the court for
April next. Turner is British sub
ject who was taken into custody upon
arrival in New York last October on
the charge of being an anarchist and
his deportation ordered. He was de-
tanned at Ellis island and instituted
habeas corpus proceedings in the cir
cult court for the Southern district of
New York His petition for a writ
was denied and he brought the case
to the supreme court. 1t is claimed
on behalf of Turner that he is only
theoretical anarchist. He came to the
United States to engage in lecturing
and writing. The application for re-
lease on bail was partly for the pur-
pose of permitting Turner to fill lee
ture engagements in other countries.
