JAPANESE ARE
CONCENTRATING
ON PORT ARTHUR
The Withdrawal of Troops From
Feng Wang Cheng Seems to Point
That Way---Russians Put to Flight
Near kudn Tien.

St Petersburg, May 24-The pre-
the general staff is that the withdraw
al of the Japanese upon Feng Wang
Cheng means that the enemy has de
cided to devote itself to operations
against Port Arthur and that the pres
ent object Of General Kuroki with the
first army, supported by General Mad
va with the third army now landing
near Takushan, is to watch General
kuropatkin and to prevent a south
ward move which would take General
Oku and the second army, on Liao
Tung peninsula, in the rear. A direct
attack upon General Kuropatkin's
main force apparently is not consider
ed to be impending Nothing more
than outpost affairs are anticipated,
although some of these may be san
culinary. Russian scouts are keeping
in constant touch with the enemy and
thus far the minor shiftings of the ene-
my's detachments west of the Tayang
River and northward of Moi Ting Ling,
are considered to be in the nature of
screens. If the two armies of the Rus,
sian commander-n-c chief are trying to
work force around in the rear of
General Kuroki Or are planning a sur
prise, the fact Is sedulously concealed
here. Uneasiness is displayed at the
near approach of the rainy season
which will retard, if not completely
stop field operations. although this
plays directly into Russian hands. The
Russians will continue to hold New
Chwang, Kai Chou and Tashichou uu-
til move in force is made towards
Hal Cheng, with the object of cutting
off the retirement of the force at kai
Chou, which is sufficient to stand off
any ordinary force Of the enemy al
to discourage landing Of troops there
or at Hung Yo Cheng. The Japanese
are not in force north Of Wafandian
A report circulated by ST. Peters

MISSION
SCHOOL
FOR BOYS
Mayor A. R. Gibson Receives
Assurance That It Will Be
Built at Santa Fe.
$4,000 CONTRIBUTED
It is Proposed to Raise $4,000 More
When Work on the Structure
Will Begin.

For some time the Presbyterian
Board of Home Missions has been ag-
itating the subject of establishing a
school for boys in New Mexico. Pam
pElets were issued to all the Pres by1er,
ians asking for subscriptions for the
erection of the necessary buildings
and their equipment and setting forth
the needs of the proposed Institution
The choice of the place for the school
for some time has been between San,
ia Fe and Albuquerque. Mayor A. R.
Gibson who is now in New York City
visited the board and letters from him
received in this city this morning state
that the school will be built in Santa
Fe and that $4,000 has already been
subscribed fer it and is now in the
treasury. Fifty thousand dollars will
be necessary to carry out the present
plans of the board and it is hoped that
by the first of October that amount
will have been subscribed when the
work of construction will Immediately
begin. The institution will be called
the James School in honor Of Mrs.
James who has been president of the
board for many years and has done
valuable work in that position. The
school will certainly be benefit to the
city bringing more money into the
community and educating the native
population and therefore the project
should appeal to the citizens regardless
of denomination.

SERIOUS C0NFLAGRA-
IIoN AvERTEO
In the Brick Plant Building at the
Penitentiary BY the Prompt and
Good Work Of Convict Henry
Selleck.

What might have been very SER
ious fire was prevented last evening
by the promptness, attention and quick
action of Convict Henry Selleck in the
brick plant building at the territorial
pententiary. Selleck is United
States prisoner and was sentenced
about four years ago to five years
term of Imprisonment having been
found guilty OF the robbery of a post
Office in Chaves County. He is a trus-
ty and one OF the night firemen. Up
on going into the building about $50
O'Clock last evening he saw smoke
coming cut of cracks in the floor in
one corner. He Immediately rushed
70 the point and found that slow fire
was burning under the floor. Selling
the hose and connecting it with the
hydrant promptly, in few minutes he
had the fire under control and put out.
An investigation showed that slow
burning fire fed by rags and moist
pieces of wood had been lighted with
the intention of igniting the floor and
thereby starting serious conf1agra-
tiOn. Indications are that some of the
convicts who were in the building at
work started it just before leaving. An
investigation is now going on but it
will be very hard to discover who the
culprts are. Selleck has been very
we'll behaved prisoner and his record Is
good. His time expires in August next.
Assistant Superintendent Garrett
states that had the fire gotten head
way and had it burnt ten or fifteen
minutes longer without having been
discovered. much loss would have
doubtless occurred and the brick plant
would have been destroyed Or at least
seriously injured.

BIC RAILROAD
PROJECT
Western Pacific Railway Aband-
ons Beckwith Pass and Will
Take New Route,
A 10000 FOOT TUNNEL
The Work Of Active Construction is to
Begin at the California End Within
Three Months.

San Francisco, May 24-Engineers
of the Continental Railroad pro-
ject, now engaged in surveying a route
in the Gould interests, it is said, under
the cooperative name of the Western
Pacific Railway Company, have decid-
ed to abandon the idea of securing an
exit from California, by way of Beck
with Pass, but will take the route
through the Sierras, by way of Fre-
donia Pass, in Lassen County.
This decision was arrived at only a
few days ago. It is the plan of the pro-
moters of the new road to tunnel un-
der the pass distance of 10000 feet
by which means they will make a
great saving in grade and distance. 1t
was also learned that construction op-
erations along the route will begin in
side of three months.

plea and Judge John R. McFie sen

The guilty man heard his sentence
with a smile and walked laughingly
away with the sheriff: Il will be glad

The murder was one of the most
wanton and cold blooded that has oc-

poor laborer, and his young wife and
baby lived with Dolores Sanchez and
upon his charity. On the night of the

that same night and it was several
days afterwards that the body of the
murdered man was found. What had
aroused suspicion and had led to a
search for the body, was the discovery
OF blood and brains that had been spat-

home. Young Archuleta was soon af
terward arrested and placed in the
penitentiary at Santa Fe for safe keep
