KURoKI IN PURSUIT.

LONDON, May 10. = The London
newspapers are discussing the proba-
BILE course of events. The balance of
opinion inclines to the belief that Gen.
Kurok will succeed in overtalzing the
Russians between Feng Wang Cheng
and Lao Yang and will compel them
to fight at a disadvantage.
It is argued that it will be impossi
BILE for Gen. Kuropatkin, depending
upon a slender line of railway and
with his army encountered with bag
gage, to make his retirement speedy
own ground for battle. On the other
hand, it is argued that apart from
Lieut.. Gen. Zassalitch's error in giving
battle on the Yalu against the orders
of Gen. Kuropatkin, the latter's plan
remains unchanged, and that once
away from the mountainous country, 1t
will be much in his favor.
The question of the possibility of
the Japanese finding a weak spot in
the defense of Port Arthur is also much
debated, and 1t is believed In some
quarters that they will repeat the
tactics employed in the war with China
and attempt an assault through the
western defenses, which are known to
be the weakest.
Dispatches from Shanghai say that
the Tartar general at Mukden has de-
clined to obey VieerOy Alexieff's order
that the Chinese evacuate Mukden.
RUSSIAN REINFORCEMENTS.
ST. PETERSBURG, May 9. = The
reinforcements prepared for Gen. Ku-
ropatkin are being hurried. The last
stage of the mobilization of the tenth
and seventeenth army corps has been
signaliZed by the calling out Of the
reserves in the Moscow and Kharkoff
provinces. They will go to the front,
thus placing another 100000 men at
Kuropatkins disposal. The announce
ment of the mobilization of four army
corps along the Volga, which will fol-
low in July or August, is expected next
month.
The reserves of each army corps In
volve about 10000 men, an army corps
in time of peace numbering 20 900 men
and in war time $4,000 An army corps
on a war footing includes three in
fantry divisions of four regiments,
each of three battalions; a division Of
cavalry consisting of three divisions of
six squadrons each; one Cossack regi-
ment, brigade of field artillery and a
brigade of horse artillery, of 120 guns,
and also three detachments of engi-
neers and sappers.
BY the departure Of these troops the
Russian European army will lose six
out of thirty-one army corps. The
previous draft of troops from Euro
pean Russia had been formed into
Siberian rife battalions without
changing the organization Of the en-
perors' forces on this side of the Urals
The present units will be transferred
bodily to Manchuria, retaining their
present officers and staffs.

long tables. She told all the visitors
that her gifts numbered 672, and every
one was convinced that she was

show. This girl had in the center Of

A clerk in famous silverware shop

"Sweetsie" is the name of the newest
arrival in the Harry Lehr family, and
both husband and wife are wild over
him. "Sweetsie'' is a dog of the So
called monkey griffon breed, the same
breed as the attenuated Pinkey- Panky
Poo of Mrs. pat Campbell. Sweet
sic" has succeeded the Lehr monkeys
in the affections of the Lehrs, and
every day the little brute goes driving
with either Mr.. or Mrs. Lehr. The
other day Mrs. Lehr took the dog to a
concert in the AstOr gallery in the Wal
dorf-AStoria. "SWeetsie" reflected his
good breeding by looking bored and
paying no attention to the music.
SWeetsie" was wearing a sapphire
blue bow about his neck. The Lehr dog
affects blues Of all tints When he was
in Baltimore with his master and mis-
tress, "Sweetsie" was the talk of the
hotel on account of his ever changing
blue ribbons.
Mrs. Harry Lehr was with Miss
Maria de Baril at the Waldorf concert
when "Sweetsie" was introduced into
society. The budding friendship of
Mrs. Lehr and Miss de Baril is inter
esting because they represent widely
different elements. Mrs. Lehr is little
seen now with the set her husband
made famous. Like her sister, Mrs.
Duncan Emmett, Mrs. Lehr is begin
ming to cultivate the Knickerbocker
crowd, and Miss de Baril could further
her interests in this direction. Mrs.
Lehr was too sedate for her husbands.
set and she has been called the
Sphinx" on account of her reticence.=
Miss de Baril often introduced persons
to society. She aided Mrs. Frederick
W. Vanderbilt, Mrs. Everett Mallory
Culver and many others. 1t does seem
improbable that Mrs Lehr, with her
Dahlgren, Drexel and Wharton connec-
tions, should have to appeal to this
widely known spinster. 1t may be
purely a case of friendship.
One Of the most beautiful Of the
spring gowns is>Worn by Mrs. Alfred G.
Vanderbilt who takes the greatest
pleasure in her pink splendor The
gown is a rose pink cloth and the fabric
is rough finished The gown is trimmed
with needlepoint lace. There are many
small linen balls of about the size Of a
pea. These little balls are sewed on the
material and the same unusual trim
ming is combined with the lace on the
skirt. Mrs. Vanderbilt wears a hat of
roses of the same hue, and while the
gown is perfect in-style and workman
ship 1T is too glaring for the avenue.
The gown represents more hours of toll
than do most fine gowns. The other
day Mrs. Vanderbilt was driving in her
victoria, lined with chocolate brown
cloth. Against the brown background
the pink gown looked most artistic 1t
may be imagined that this combina-
ton would cause stir even if the
Wearer were not a Vanderbilt. This
young woman is looking radiant this
spring. She is bit stouter and her
additional weight is becoming.
