Proper Treatment Of Pneumonia.
Pneumonia is too dangerous q
disease for anyone to attempt to doctor
himself. although he may. have the
proper remedies at hand. A physi.

should be borne in mind. however,
that pneumonia always results from a
cold or from an attack of the grip,
and that by giving Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy the threatened Sttsck
of pneumonia may be warded off.
This remedy is also used by physicians
in the treatment of pneumonia with

WATSON CORTELYOU
INDICATIONS THAT THEY ARE
 WORKING IN HARMONY.
Democrats arc Not Alarmed by this Latter Day Boosting Of POpu- lism by the Republican
 Press

Washington. Aug. 21.-(Special. J. It is currently reported here in a quiet way that Chairman Cortelyou and the Republican National Committee have kept themselves well informed of the plans of the Populists and especially of the line of talk intended to be in- dulged by candidate Thomas E. Wat son. The recent boosting of Watson by the Roosevelt press lends plausibil- ity to the story that there is an alii- anoe between Watson and the Republi- can campaign managers.
 Democrats are not alarmed by 1t. They look upon 1t as showing the des- peration of the Republicans when they induce their press to laud the cause which for the last eight years they have held up to ridicule and scorn. One of Watson's schemes for the near future is to advise against and fight every effort at fusion. insisting that the Populists put in straight shot for their own candidates and have nothing to do with the Democrats In any con test.
 5. M. Allen, prominent lawyer of Birmingham, after spending few days in Washington, left this morning for his native home in Caroline County, Virginia, which he has not visited in twenty-two years.

 Senator Hoar passed a comfortable night. and awakened just as the sun came streaming into the window of the sick room.
 Well he said to his son, General Redwood Hoar. and his daughter. Mrs Mary Hoar. another day has begun and l am still alive"
 General Hoar then said that his fa . ther was growing weaker gradually. and might not live through the day.
 great portion of the forenoon was passed by the Senator in sleep.
 Shortly after noon the Senator woke again and was able to sit up and look out of the window. His mind is clear, but he is very weak physically.

REBELS WIN VICTORY
ARTILLERY DUEL FOUGHT WITH
 PARAGUAYAN ARMY.
Bombardment of the Capital of the Lit- tie Republic So Far Prohibited by Action of the Diplomats.

Buenos Ayres. Aug. 21.--An artillery engagement has been fought between the San Jocimno battery of the Par aguayan army and a body of revelu- tionists in which the latter succeeded in dislodging the guns of the Govern ment force. The losses on either side are not stated.
 There has been no bombardment of Asuncion. the Paraguayan capital. since last report.
 The insurgents have established a provisional government with the capi- tal at Villa Del Pillar (112 miles from Asuncion). and have nominated Gen eraI Ferreria, their leader. for Presi- dent, and Gonzales Norvero for Vice. President. Four secretaries also have been named. One of these, Deputy So- Ter, has started for Rio Janeiro and other capitals, to eIfdeavor to secure the recognition of the revoluutionists as belligerents by the various tsssssn- ments. This is taken to indicate that rapid operations by the insurgents have been impeded through the non-bom- intervention of the diplomatic corps at Asuncion.
 Despair is felt in the capital over the failure of the negotiations for a settlement of the difficulties.
 All imports have been suspended and articles of prime necessity are hardly obtainable at famine prices.
 The arrival of the Argentine gunboat which was despatched last week to the scene of the trouble has not been re- ported and a torpedo boat destroyer has been sent in search of the missing vessel.

PASSED THE COLLECTION PLATE.
Judge Parker Performs His Usual Du-
 ties at Church.

Esopus, Aug. 21.-Except for a casual visitor who introduced himself to Judge Parker as "a New Jersey Democrat" there was no one at Rose mount today to disturb the Sunday quiet.
 The usual stream of Sunday sight seers, rather larger than usual, passed Rosemount in carriages and on foot, but did not disturb the Parker family. There was a report early in the day that an excursion was coming from New Jersey, but none appeared. Judge Parker has caused 1t to be understood that he does not desire excursions or large parties of visitors to come to Rosemount Sundays.
 Judge and Mrs. Parker and part of the family guests went to Kingston in the Rosemount launch this morning and attended church as usual at the mission church of the Holy Cross.
 In the absence of Rev. Charles Mer- cer Hall, who preached today in Sara toga, Rev J. Edward Cooper of Hack ensack. N. J., preached.
 Judge Parker, as usual. acted as one of the ushers, and passed the collec- tion plate. The church was nearly filled, the congregation including many strangers attracted by the expectation of seeing the Democratic Presidential candidate.
 It was said at Rosemount today that no visitors of political importance were expected during the early hours tomor- row.

RUSSIAN LOSSES UNEMPLOYED.

stoesseI Tells, However, That Jap Cas-
 ualties Were Heavy.
 St. Petersburg, Aug. 21.-Emperor Nicholas has received the following message from General Stoessel, com mander of the military forces at Port Arthur. dated August 16:
 The Japanese made a two days at- tack on our position on the Uglovaia Mountains, near Louisa Bay. All their attacks were repulsed.
 The Ugloyaia, visokaia and Divis- onia mountains remain in our hands.
 The enemy's losses were very great.
 The following officers particularly distinguished themselves:
 General Kondratonko, Colonel IT, mann, Lieutenant Colonel Yolchino and Captain Andreiff.
 This morning a representative of the Japanese army, Major Yamaoka, presented himself to our advanced post with letter signed by General Nogio and Admiral Togo, demanding the sur render of the fortress. The proposal was of course rejected.
 T have the happiness to report that the troops are in excellent condition and that they fight heroically."

HIGH PRAISE IS GIVEN.
Russian Correspondent Tells of Brave
 Fight of Jessen.


 Vladivostok. Aug. 21-The following additional details of the fight of Tsu Island between the Russian Vladiyo- stok squadron and Vice Admiral Kam- imura's vessels are supplied by the Rus sian correspondent for the Associated Press:
 The cruisers Rossia and Gromoboi. two of the survivors of our brave squadron. are again in this port. after the most desperate battle of modern naval warfare. Half of the officers and 40 per cent. of the men were killed or wounded in the unequal fight. The gallant Rurik was lost and the Rossia and Gromobot became almost helpless cripples, but there Is grim satisfaction in knowing that they carried out their orders. fighting so as to weaken Ad- miral Kamimura's squadron with the object of allowing the Port Arthur squadron to force the passage of the Korean straits, which had been hith- eTto been impossible |"
 The correspondent mentions many details of the battle. which have all ready been covered in the Associated Press dispatches, and says that there are others into which for reasons that are obvious to him, he cannot enter put he is enabled to give the following Iconcerning Rear Admiral lessen and

other surviving officers of the sQuadron who are now in the hospital at vlad- ivcstok tenderly nursed partly by the same devoted fonce of surgeons and who worked over them all day long under the murderous fire of the enemy:
 Rear Admiral lessen hoisted his flag on the Rossio at six o'clock on the morning of August 12, and the squad ron steamed out in accordance with previous instructions to meet Rear Ad- miral withoft, (commander of the Port Arthur squadron.) The purpose of the vladivostok squadron was to draw on Admiral Kamimura so as to clear the passage of the Korean gulf for Ad- miral withoft, whose vessels it was presumed had been damaged and weakened in their light with Admiral Togo.
 '"The Japanese fleet was first sighted at 4:05 on the morning of August 14. It was daylight when the Russians ob- served the smoke on the horizon of four Japanese vessels steaming in col umn to the northwest. These vessels came up rapidly and proved to be four first-class cruisers, of which the Rus sians identified the Iwate and the Ad- suma.
 'Tf possible. we would have gotten them dead to the north and then run to the southward to join the Port Ar thur squadron, avoiding a fight at that particular time. but the superior speed of the enemy prevented this. They edged us towards the Japanese shore and see- ing that battle was inevitable. and that under any circumstances this was part of our mission. we turned in the hope of coming in close quarters and damaging the enemy as much as possi- ble, but the Japanese. ships chose to make 1t long range fight They had superior artillery and were better pro- tected.

facing on the park were all damaged to a greater or less extent.
 On East Seventh Street. between Wacouta and Kitson Streets, dis tance of seven blocks, much damage was done. Along the north side of East Seventh Street. every building was damaged, some being nothing. more than heaps of debris. Most of them, however. were small brick or frame buildings, and while the aggregate damage there will be heavy. the fndi- vidual losses were comparatively small.
 The Washington School building at St. Louis Street and Eighth Streets suffered considerable damage. alrSost the entire top portion being blown off. St. Mary's Catholic church, on Ninth and John Streets, was unroofed. St. Siegfried's Episcopal church, on Eighth Street, a frame structure, was levelled to the ground.

AMERICAS INTERVENTION.
England Probably will Act in Accord
 With United States.

London, August 21!-The interven- ton of the American squadron at Shanghai. in the Japanese operations against the Russian cruiser Askold created considerable surprise in off, cial and diplomatic circles here. The Japanese legation was at first inclin- ed to believe that the report that the United States torpedo boat destroyer, Chauncey. steamed into a position be- tween the Japanese torpedo boat and the Russian cruiser at Shanghai was fake. as it had understood that the American government would not ob- ject against offensive action against Russian warships in case ftheir fail ure to observe Chinese neutrality.
 An official Of the legation said:
 I'll the report is not untrue, the American officer must have had good reason for his action. such as the pro- lection of the American interests which would have been endangered by flying shells
 Japan has been very reluctant to send ships into the harbor for she re- cognized the international character of Shanghai and that the laws of neutral ity demanded that China should order the Askold and Gromoboi to dismantle or leave the port, and that she having given the order, the Russian ships hav- refused 1t was then incumbent for Japan to act. thereby protecting Chi nese neutrality and at the same time exerting her rights as a belligerent.
 Tt would never have done to permit Russian ships to remain in a Chinese port, deliberately and evowedly viola ting the neutrality of the country.
 whatever reason actuated the American commander, if he readily did as is reported. it Is certain that no complications will follow"
 It fs believed at the Japanese lega- tion that If the American commander intervened to preserve Chinese neu- trsljty, the American Government will take measures to enforce IL
 The foreign officers has asserted from time to time of the arrival O. the Asko,d at Shanghai that it was not the business of Great Britain 10 interefere. but 1t was China's duty to observe strict neutrality, and 1t has gone so far as to urge her. to adopt this policy.
 In the opinion of British officials, II the Russian ships fail to dismantle' they must take the correct course. At the same time. international interests cannot be permitted to suffer from the result of misdirected fire in case of R battle; and it is stated that the Brit lsh Consul General probably will be Instructed to support the American Consul General in urgent representa-

Shanghai. Aug. 21.-shanghai was thrown into a fever of excitement this afternoon by the arrival of a Japanese torpedo boat which was sighted coming In from the south at half past o'clock.
 She passed Woosung at full speed and started up the river Ju for Shang- hal. The United States torpedo boat destroyer Chauncey slipped her cable and followed the Japanese destroyer.
 The Japanese boat was cleared for action. She anchored off the Cosmo- politan dock, where the Russian cruis- CT Askold is undergoing repairs. The Chauncey came to anchor practically between the dock and the Japanese de- stroyer.
 A foreign pilot reports having seen a Japanese battleship and two cruisers sixty miles outside of Woosung. There are at present no Chinese men of war In this port, but the Taotai has tele- graphed that Chinese cruiser be sent immediately.
 Russia's Flat Refusal.
 The Russian Consul General here flat ly refuses to dlsarm the Askold and the Russian torpedo boat destroyer Gramoboa, or to order them to leave the harbor
 The Taotai has notified American Consul Goodman who is the Dean of the Consul body, that China cannot pro- tect the foreign settlements. He con- tends that Russia ignores the orders issued by China and that China has not the means of making her obey them.
 Consul Goodnow has called a meet ing of the consular body to take joint action for the protection of the foreign inhabitants.
 The Askold has docked adjacent to the warehouse here of the Standard Oil Company. which are valued at over 4 q, ,ooe;0e0. The S.audard Oil C-snrssiis has demanded a protection for its prop erty from Consul Goodnow.
 The dock where the Askold lies is owned by Englishmen. On one side of this dock is German and Dutch prop erty and on the other side American property.
 Eight American Warships.
 There are eight American, one Ger man. two British and four French war ships here.
 The steamer Hatin. which arrived here today, reports having sighted Japanese squadron tast night off Gut slaff island, about sixty five miles southeast of Shanghai. The squadron showed no lights.
 The United States Monitor Monad- mock and two torpedo destroyers have been ordered to be ready to protect the neutrality of Shanghai
 American Consul Goodnow called the meeting of the consular body for 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. It is be- lieved the foreign consuls will arrange to strensthe nthe hands of the Taotai fin dealing with the matter of the Rus sian ships here.
 Later reports declare the Japanese squadron to be twenty miles from woosung. woosung is the outside har- for of Shanghai.
