More Than Nineteen Miles an Hour
i'm Speed Test.

Seattle, Sept. 7.-According TO pri-
vate advices received in this city re-.
garding the trial trip made 10y the
Great Northern Steamship Company =
new vessel, the Minnesota, the big
ship is even more of a wonder to sea
men than was at first thought. Not
only will the Minnesota be the biggest
ship on the Coast, but she will develop
the greatest speed with the minimum
consumption of coal of, perhaps, of
any ship atioat on the Pacific.
The Minnesota obtained, over an
eight mile course, maximum speed of
MA knots per hour, which is equiva-
lent to 1871 miles an hour. This is far
better than any vessel now running in
these waters, with the possible excep-
ton of the Princess Victoria. The
Minnesota, to carry her at the speed
given above, consumed II 1925 pounds.
Or eight and one half tons of coal per
hour. Marine men consider this con-
sumption of coal proportionately small
er than any ship now navigating the
Pacific burns when at its greatest
speed. 1t was between New York and
Philadelphia that the trial trip was
made by the vessel.

London, Sept. 10.-Dispatches from
various sources esta blish only the fact
that the Russian army is safely at
Mukden, Kuropatkin having accom-
plished his retreat in good order in
spite of the harassing japanese, sodden
roads and hampered by more than -.
900 wounded. Beyond this there is nc
direct news bearing On the military
situation.
Advices from japanese sources are
significantly lacking and the exact
whereabouts of the three japanese
armies are unknown. No word has
been received to indicate the present
location of Kuroki's army which was
last reported on the Russian left flank
and steadily pushing porthward
A dispatch received by Berlin

Mukden; but the story lacks confirma-

Niceroy Alexieff reports that railway

Mukden and Hardin are both uninter-
rupted. European military opinion is
thatt another big battle will soon be
fought.
Tactics Not Brilliant.
The correspondent of the Times, who
was at the scene of battle at Liaoyang,
telegraphing from Peking, has the fol-
lowing to say regarding the tactics of
the two armies:
after what has been printed of the
excellent tactics and brilliant strategy
of the japanese, your CORES pondent

his personal observation did not come
up to expectations 1t is the honest
opinion of your correspondent that
there was nothing strategically excel

laurels rest with Gen. Kuropatkin
who can claim to have defeated the
main object of the japanese opera.
lions. AS to the tactics of the Rus.
SLAMS, they obviously cling to the error
of over-manning their defensive posi-.
tions, while the sole spirit of the Jap.
anese tactics, as illustrated by the op.
Grafton of the divisions under Gen
Oku, was ge-hammer frontal at
tacks.
Your correspondent is satisfied that
Gen. Oku's corps commands are the
finest infantry in the world, and no.
body who has had the opportunity to
observe it's work can believe that there
is any other army which in five con
secutive days could have delivered
eight unsuccessful infantry attacks
upon intrenchments; they did and still
persevere.
Nothing can be said at this time
about the cavalry of either belligerent
there being no evidence that the
mounted branches accomplished any
thing anywhere during the campaign. .

HAVE NO EVIDENCE.
Government officials Find No Proof
of Meat TruSt


Washington, Sept. "A prominent
administration leader is authority for
the statement that so far no evidence
has been discovered by the investiga-
lions Of the department of commerce
that the beef packers have been or are
violating the injunction issued last
summer by Judge Grosscup, of the
tigation, which is being conducted I'M
der the special direction of congress,
has now been III progress nearly three
months. Ten special agents have
been engaged i'll the work, and their
inquiries have been made out ON the
ranches of the West as well as in the
packing centers.
Packers, cattlemen, commission nier-
chants, retail butchers, independent
dealers, officers of private car compan-
les and all firms and persons supposed
to have knowledge of the inner work
ings of the industry have been inter
viewed in person by agents of the de-
partment. The data already collected
is voluminous, and when the final re-
port is communicated to congress will
make several volumes. While the ban
of secrecy has been placed on all Off
Gals having even a remote connection
with the inquiry, it is learned that the
packers so far have all vigorously de-
MED the existence of any com bination
in restraint of trade.
Such denials, officials say, were ex-
pected, but, although the probe has
been run deep, no evidence has been
found to justify the secretary of COM
merce and labor in referring the mat
ter to the attorney general for action
by the courts. The cattlemen contend,
without offering any conclusive proof
it is understood, that the com bination
is as active as ever, that the prices for
cattle on the hoCf are fixed by some
central agency, that competition, as
far as they are concerned has been
stified and that many of them have
been forced into bankruptcy. AS proof
of their contentious they submit state
ments showing that during some peri

We're at a very low figure while the

That the former was at all times
uniform indicates, the cattlemen say,
that the price is controlled either
through an understanding on the part
of the packers or as the result of a
tangible combination. Officials of the
department admit that the task mapped
out for them by congress is a difficult
one and that it will take some weeks
to complete it.

TWO MINDS ABOUT 1T.
Glorious Retreat. But Moral Shock
More Peace Talk.

Glorious Retreat. But Moral Shock.
More Peace Talk.
st. Petersburg, Sept. 9.-Two dis
tinct emotions prevail in connection
with Kuropatkin's Observation-Disclosures
of the military feat and grief at the
moral shock. 1t is felt that the army
has acquitted itself with "A peculiar
glory, and yet that Russia has suffered
staggering blow that must affect its
fortunes throughout the East and, to "a
less extent, throughout the world.
News from the front continues to
discover to influential minds the con-
viction that the task the government
has set the nation in the far East can
not be accomplished without sacrifices
too great to be contemplated. These
men maintain that Japan commands
men of permanent superiority in the
area of conflict and that Russia S
frightful handicap can never be over
come. Hence they say that peace
must sooner or later be arranged on
terms acceptable to the islanders.
On the other hand the authorities
remain militant, and mobilization pro-
ceeds. In reply to foreign critics who
take the view that Kuropatkin's policy
in Manchuria has subjected him to
severe damage, while he has gained
nothing in return, Russian military
men assert that Japan has suffered a
loss of $4,000 troops and has spent an
amount of national energy that cannot
be replaced for years. They add that
the weakness thus engendered will be
taken advantage of by Kuropatkin
when he marshals fresh army against
the invaders.
According to reports which have
been received at the war Office from
Mukden and vicinity, the Russian
casualties during the past twelve days
have been 80 900 killed and wounded.
The dispatches are not stamped as
official, but are taken to be fairly ac-
curate.

ASSESSED BIG FINE.
Barkentine Alta in Trouble for Not
Having Register.

BarEentIne Alta III trouble lot NOT
Having Register.
Port Townsend, Sept. TO- - bar
kentine Alta has arrived here from
South Africa via Honolulu without a
register. For this derelictlon the Gus
toms officials have fined her 81 300.
The Alta is owned in Manila and was
originally British bottom. Some
Americans purchased her when the
United States assumed charge of the
islands. She traded there awhile and
later came direct to Port Townsend,
where she was seized and fined. The
navigation laws require that all YES
sells from foreign ports shall have a
register, but the Atlas owners con-
tended that she was in the coasting
trade between American possessions
and exempt from the law recited. A
fine of 81 .06 per ton was assessed and
the owners appealed to United States
District Judge Hanford, who decided
that the vessel was British and assess
able only at the rate of 6 cents per
ton. The customs officials this time
are sure they have clear case against
the Alta and expect decision confis-
eating the vessel.
