The trains were on the southbound

With such force did the rear train

were lifted from the tracks and then
settled down with a crash. So great
was the force of the collision that the
cars could not be drawn apart, and it
was necessary to chop them to pieces.

DAY PASSED WITHOUT
CONFLICT OF FORCES

st. Petersburg, May 10, 9:4o a. m.-
The war commission adjourned at a
late hour this morning, but did not
make public any dispatches from the
Far East. This is accepted as an in
dication that no fresh collisions have
occurred. The Cossacks in touch with
the Japanese are simply small de-
tachments which are observing the
movements of the enemy in order to
keep Gen. Kuropatkin informed.
The strict censorship prevented the
st. Petersburg newspapers from re-
ceiving dispatches to-day, and the lack
of information gave rise to fresh crop
of rumors, including one that the ar
mored cruiser Rurik had been destroy
ed. The officials deny that any infor-
nation of this character has been re-
ceived, saying that the latest reports
showed that the Rurik was undamaged
and was in the harbor of Vladivostok.

TO GUARD INTERESTS IN
TOWN OF NEW CHWANG.

Washington, May 9.-The attention
of the State Department has been
drawn to the possibility of rioting and
looting at New Chwang in an indefinite
interval of time between the expected
Russian withdrawal and the japanese
occupation of the port.
Secretary Hay to-day had a consul
tation with the President respecting
the advisablity of again sending a
warship to New Chwang to safeguard
American interests and as far as pos
sible to prevent outrages upon other
foreigners by brigands. AS result of
the conference the Navy Department
has cabled Admiral Cooper, comman-
der-in-chief of the Asiatic station, to
send a cruiser and a gunboat to Che
Foo. This is the nearest neutral port
to Port Arthur, but is outside the zone
of military operations. The selection
of the vessel is left to Admiral Cooper.
There are several vessels of the navy
within two or three days sail of New
Chwang. the nearest being the Raleigh
now ait Chemulpo, while the Helena
and the Wilmington are at Wenchau,
just below Shanghai, and the Cincin-
natl is on her way from Che Foo to
Chemulpo.

health or in any manner hamper the
prosecution of the work of opening the
canal; and the commission may cause
any and all such newly arrived persons
or those alien to the zone to be ex-
PEELED and deported.
The commission is given power to
legislate on all rightful subjects of
legislation not inconsistent with the
laws and treaties of the United States
so far as they apply to said zone and
other places.
All laws, rules and regulations of a
governmental character enacted by the
commission are to be submitted to the
Secretary of War for approval.
Gen. Davis Duties.
Maj. Gen. Davis, who is to be the
governor of the canal zone. is direct
ed to see that the laws are faithfully
| executed, and is vested with the power
| to grant reprieves and pardons. In
| sudden eXigencies he may call on any
| available military or naval force of the
| United States for assistance.
The President urges the adoption and
approval of effective methods for the
improvement of the health conditions
on the isthmus, as was done in Cuba
and Porto Rico.
The letter to the Secretary concludes
with the statement that as the United
States own about sixty-nine seven
tieths of the shares of the capital stock
of the Panama railroad, it's general
policy and management will be con-
trolled by the United States, and the
President directs that all the men,
bers of the commission as soon as
practicable be elected to the direc-
torate of the road which is to be an
adjunct to the construction of the
canal, at the same time fulfilling the
purpose for which It was constructed

specifically directs the annullment of
any lottery or gambling franchise, and
provides for punishment and impris-
onment for any future exercise of such
franchises.
Through War Department.
Secretary Taft explained that 1t
manifestly would be impossible for the
President to give that personal atten-
ton to the canal work which is abso-
lutely necessary, and as the War De-
partment hitherto has exercised SUPER
visory control over public, civil and
military works, and governmental con-
troll over the territory dependent upon
the country it was deemed advisable
that the Isthmian Commission should
operate under the direction of the
War Department. What particular
bureau Of the War Department the
commission will be under viii be de-
termined by Secretary Taft, but he in
dicated that II might not be the bu-
reau of insular affairs. which, he in

ROMAN C0TH0LICS AND
PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM.
Discussed at the General Conference
OF the Northern MethOdists.


of the Northern MethOdists.
Los Angeles, Cal. May 9.-The at
titude of the Roman Catholic Church
toward the public school system of the
United States furnished the subject of
an exciting debate at to-day's session
of the Methodist Episcopal general
conference.
While there was a strong disposition
on the part of certain delegates to
have the conference adopt resolutions
committing it to decided utterances on
the subject, an overwhelming senti-
ment developed against such action
and the question finally was referred
to a committee. from which 1t is un-
likely ever to be reported.
Rev. ]. r. King, secretary of the
Church Extension Society of Philadel-
| phia, presented the resolution which
| adversely criticised the Roman Cath
olic Church, declaring that in the Ian
guage of the Episcopal address, its
efforts to control the secular press, it's
influence in politics and its assaults on
the public school system demand the
vigilance of Protestants and patriots -
He spoke at length in support of the
| resolution.
Charles B. Lore. chief justice of the
Delaware Supreme Court, lay delegate,
| after agreeing with DR.. King regard
| ing the public schools, said:
But are we to gain anything by any
phase of denunciation against any
other Christian body? (Cries of ''No,"

THE Roman Catholic Church has
done a magnificent work in this coun-
try 1t has taken hold of class of

the we'll being of our common land. 1
| feel like putting my hands under ev-
cry evangelizing agency in this world
that helps to uplift men and not pull
them down."
This expression was received with
| applause by the delegates and the gall
| leries.
A motion by DIR. S. L. Beiler to refer
the resolution to the Committee on the
State of the Church was carried.
1t was learned tonight that the
subcommittee on the effectiveness of
bishops reported to-day in favor of the
retirement of at least four of the pres
ent bishops. These will be, it is said
by a prominent leader in the church
councils, Bishops Andrews, aged 70;
Mallalieu, IS; and Walden and Vincent,
10. Bishop Andrews is the same age
as Bishop Merrill. who has asked to
be retired.
If this forecast is correct. at least
seven new bishops will be elected by
the present general conference. No ac-
tion was taken on the subcommittee
report. pending the report of the sub
committee on the age limit.

Win, May /. via Seoul, May g.
When the early mist lifted from the
Yalu river this morning the Japanese
infantry was disclosed, lined up for
battle on the low, sandy island of Kin
teito. which is in front of Wiju.
The walls and towers of the city on
the hill, rising abruptly from the south
bank of the river and the nearest of
the three channels, were crowded with
Japanese and Korean spectators of the
forthcoming attack.
The soldiers were spread out in their
black lines three miles long, from a
point on the island opposite the village
of Chiu Lien Cheng on the west to a
point opposite the extremity of the
Tigers Head on the east. Two bat
teries began the action by throwing
shells to the Manchurian side of the
river for half an hour, while the sun
was rising. They sprinkled with shells
the enlbankments whence the Russian
guns had been firing for the past
week, but no response to their fire was
forthcoming, and it looked as if the
Russians had removed their batteries
during the night.
Japs Began to Advance.
Soon after o'clock the Japanese be-
gan to advance. When they were a
few hundred yards from the hills on
the Manchurian side, they threw them
selves prone on the ground and began
volleying.
In tha meantime the japanese bat
teries searched the hills with shrapnel.
The Russians now could be seen at
intervals where the road was exposed,
hurryjng in small squads along the
hills. These exposed stretches of the
road made fine targets for the Iapa-
nese gunners. A fierce fire was con-
centrated on one open space, half the
shrapnel thrown bursting over a small
area with wonderful precision.
Still the Russians remained silent.
There was no answering fire from them
until the first Japanese line was with

THE RUSSIANS WILL RUSH
100000 MEN TO THE EAST.

st. Petersburg, May 8, 7:44 P. NJ
The reinforcements prepared for Gen.
Kuropatkin 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 10000
men at Kuropatkin's disposal.
The announcement of the mobiliza-
ton of four army corps along the Vol
ga, which will follow in July or Au-
gust, is expected next month.
The Russian authorities are COM
pletely in the dark as to what is hap
pening in the territory occupied by the
enemy, except such news as comes
from the newspapers abroad and origi-
mating from japanese sources. The
reports of Japanese landing at Taku
Shan and the investment of Port Dali
ny, ETC., while not confirmable here
officially are not denied.
The Novoe Vremya of this morning
is greatly excited over the action of
the Swedish authorities in mining the
entrance of the harbor of Site, on the
island of Cothland, in the Baltic sea,

that Site was occupied as a base by
