SOLUTION IS SATISFACTORY.
British Press Pleased at Action Taken
by Russia,

London, July 25.-The statement
that Russia has decided to waive her
claim to search the Malacca and to
forbid similar seizures in the future is
accepted by the morning papers as a
fairly satisfactory solution of the sit

vessels have also been seized is held
to acquit Russia of any design to en-
brOil Great Britain with other powers.

A dispatch from Danville says that
Thomas Davis, charged with attempted
criminal assault upon Mrs. w. L. Pear
son, was taken from the Jail at Martins
vile Monday night by mob of deter
mined men and soundly whipped. There
was no attempt at a lynching. After the
whipping the man was returned TO his
cell in the Jail. Davis, who is an en-
ploye of the Shenandoah division of the
Norfolk and Western Railway, approach
ed the Pearson home, which is near
Ridgeway, in Henry county, during the
absence of the husband and insulted the
young woman. He followed this up by

JAPANESE ADVANCING.

A large body of the japanese forces
is advancing on Haicheng, about ten
miles southeast of Niuchwang, and Kai-
ping, about 35 miles south of Much
wang, and a smaller force is marching
in the direction of Liaoyang.
Fighting is expected at Haicheng, and
the japanese will likely arrive at Niu-
chwang today. That place has been
completely evacuated by the Russians.
The fighting line is steadily nearing
Mukden, where Viceroy Alexieff's head
quarters still remain. Little informa-
ton can be obtained by the newspaper
correspondents, who are forbidden to
proceed to the scene of operations, and
official information is withheld until ad-
vices are sent to st. Petersburg. 1T is
now known, however, that the japanese
are almost within striking distance of
the Russians and that the forces protect
ing Liaoyang are stretching eastward
from the railroad along the Maotien
mountain range.
1t is said that the japanese advance
will be resisted at Hal Cheng, whence
the Russian forces will fall back upon
Liaoyang, where they will make adeter-
mined stand, with fighting strength
there available of 10000 men. If de-
feated no stop will be made at Mukden,
but the retirement will be continued to
Thieling, town at the head of naviga-
ton for native craft on the Lao river,
200 miles north of Niuchwang. 1t is
not believed that the japanese will move
into the interior until they have thorough
" established their base at Thieling, re-
peating the movement which they made
during the war with China.
The Russians admit the advance of the
japanese army to a point within 8 miles
of Haicheug, many Of their wounded en-
teriDg there.
The nearest fighting expected before
the japanese reach Niuchwang will be
at Tashlichao, but it will not amount to
much. This city is now guarded by 300
Chinese police, and everything is quiet.
The japanese force at Kaichau is report
ed 20, 600 strong.
1t was announced at st. Petersburg
last night that Lieutenant General LAS
salitch has been relieved of the command
of the second Siberian army division
and that Lieutenant General Count
Keller, former governor Of Ekaterinos-
Law, has been appointed to succeed him.

Big Ship Laden with Gold.

The Kaiser Wilhelm III, which sailed
from New York yesterday for Cherbourg
and Bremen, carried in her strong room
l55 kegs containing gold worth s., 222,-
521.69 and 65 bars and five boxes Of
silver valued at$45, 900, making her one
of the richest treasure ships that ever
put to sea. Her record is next to that
Of La Lorraine, which sailed last Thurs.
day with 50, 800, 900 in gold. 1t was
expected that the Kaiser Wilhelm il
would carry over $40, 900, 600, but 81
900, 900 was withdrawn at the last mo-
ment. All the gold is consigned to
Paris, and is insured to its full value,
the risk being divided among a number
of underwriters. The value of the ship
and her general cargo and the baggage
and the Jewels of her passengers make
her worth, with the gold, about $50, OO0-
900.
