EVERY OFFICER KrLLED.


 ToAio, Sept 14.-- General Nodzu re- ports hhat the heaviest fighting at Liao~ yang occurred during the evening Of September 3. The Twentieth regiment, having preciously lost succeSsively two regimental and four battalion com manders, at a great sacrifice assaulted and dislodged the Russians from their redoubts at Yusfangmiao. There were no Japanese officers above the rank of captain. Captain Yegami, com manding the regiment, led the charge and inspirited his men. The reserves unhesitatingly filled the gaps in the as= saulting line. The men, unmindful of wire entao glements and other obstTue- tions, rushed up to the Russian works, shouting "Banzai.' One battalion lost all it's officers in the first clash and private subsequently, commanded it= One company was reduced to fourteen or fifteen men. The regiments losses were from twelve to thirteen hundred.
 In spite of the fatigue, at sunrise September the Japanese continued the pursuit of the Russians, but the lack of bridges forced them to tempor4 arily remain south of the Taitse r1ver-

GAMBLING ON NEW BASIS
THE RESTRICTED PLAN WILL BE
GIVEN "A ;, TRIAL ONE MAN
MADE RESPONSIBLE.

! The tangle in the gambling situa-
tion which has existed since the be-
ginning of the present. administration
has been Strengthened out according
to reports and the industry will be
operated under definite restrictions.
The matter has been adjusted by turn
ing over the gambling industry to
liking gambler who controls the In
terests and stands responsible for all
complaints. Gambling houses that do
not have his sanction and backing will
be compelled to go out of business.
Ever since the present adm1n1stra-
ton took hold of affairs It has been
believed by the. leaders that there were
just two ways Of dealing with the
gambling problem. One was to en-
deavor to stop all gambling and the
other to restrict gambling to limited
number of houses in the hands OF re-
sponsible persons who would bar GER
tain classes from any game and under
take to see that all. complaints were
satisfactorily taken care of. The first
plan was tried without satisfaction to
the present authorities and the second
one has been instituted. In the Jones
interregnum, however, the adninistra-
ton satisfied itself that public gam
bling could be stopped.
Under the new plan, all gambling
houses in the city will have RESPONSE
BILE heads and CROOKED" games will
result in the closing of any place OPP

~
A new high school for Minneapolis

directors. A resolution was presented
by Newton F. Hawley favoring such a
course and it was unanimously
adopted.

Of such a building and little will be
said until the time comes to present
Then, in estimating the cost, it may be
necessary to discuss the question OF
site.
At the same meeting of the board
Director F. G. Mcmillan offered a
resolution in favor Of asking the board
of tax levy to provide for 100000 a
year to obtain pure drinking water for
the schools. Action upon this was
deferred until the next meeting, which
will be next Tuesday, when the
whole subject of pure water will be
discussed s1e
