Adee deems it inexpedient to make
public statement touching this matter
until a final decision has been reached
as to the course to sbe9pprsued in the.
case Of the Lena.
The report Of the Inspector Of boilers
and hulls, which was referred by the.
department Of commerce and: abor to
the state and navy departments, is sub.
stantially as follows:fSts,. 5I*5.tT4a. J..
The boilers and engines are both badly
in need of repairs. To put in new boilers
will require from four to six months. The
tubes of the boilers are badly pitted, but
the Lena has on board 200 additional
tubes which could be put in in a short
time and the inspector says that the
vessel can be put in a ,seaworthy condi-
ito min from twenty to thirty days, and
repaired so that she will be able to
make eight knots.
This is regarded BY officials of the
navy department as entirely within the
term :" reasonable time 'asused in the

partment is now awaiting the detailed
report Of Admiral Goodrich before TAX

Des Moines, Iowa, Sept. 14.-After
having spent the entire day in fruit
search for the five bandits who held up
and robbed south-bound train NO. III

posses returned to Muscatine last night
without having caught sight or even Il

DO organized, as the rain has made 1t
impossible for the packs of bloodhounds
to follow the trail.
Statements on the part of the United
States Express company that no money
was obtained are fatty contradicted by
members of the train crew. Engineer
Steve Durham gives graphic account
in which he says that he saw the ban
dts remove the contents OF the saf e
and carry them away In bag. Estl-
mates of the value OF the plumber range
from one to twenty thousand dollars.
None but employees OF the express COM
pany know, and they will not tell.
Durham was stopped by red light
swung across the track. When he
alighted from his engine two men COW
cred him with revolvers and marched
him to the express car. Ihey required
him to call upon the express messenger
to open the door, but the messenger
escaped thru the end of the car. The
robbers placed a dynamite cap under
the car door, blew it open and then
blew the safe in the same way. They
wore no masks, and Durham accurately
describes them.
They dismissed him with the state
ment that they could run the engine
themselves. They uncoupled the engine
and the entire party boarded it and dis
appeared down the track with the booty
without so much as having fired one
shot.
From Durham s description it has
been determined that the bandits Wer(

st. petersburg, Sept. IL, 3:4U pm
There are rumors. afoat that Gen. Nlcho-,
may supersede General Kuropatkin at
the front. =. Nicholas Nicholaievitch has
q great fighting record, made during the
Turk war. The reports, however, may
possibly be only idfe gossip. /
The question Of the responsibility for
the failure Of General Kuroopatkln to
crush General. KuroIi, Sept 2, north ct ct
the Tai-tse river, which lost the. battle
of Liao-yang, continues to excite all
absorbing interest in military circles"
But the accounts hitherto received have
been SO meager and conflicting that. it
has been almost impossible to determine
the exact facts. IN ~ $50 i
According to Russian correspondent
who throws the blame :upon General Or
loft, General Samsonof, who commands
division of Siberian Cossacks, was or
dered by General Kuropatkin, Aug. 81,
to occupy the Yen-tai coal mines and
hold the extreme left, while he launched
his main army against Kurokl.
r.L@ Orloff Took Initiative. pa.
During the, night Orloff, with the
freshly arrived European reserve men,
took over the, command at this point:
The next morning, before the. arrival Of
the daily orders, Orloff, on his own mi
tiative, decided to attack Kuroki s ex-
treme right and directed Samsonof to
execute q fanking movement, with his
until he. had time ! to reeonnoiterj and
also because, as the, correspondent de-
clares, Orlotf Is; reserve men who had. not
previously been undgrs fire were already
showing signs IF righteousness. ~" ]
Had Samson6ff fobeyeed, the CORE
spondent says, he would have been cut
off and annihilated, as the Japanese
were already advancing, having opened
a terrific fire on the Yen-tai mines be-
fore which Orloff' s men finched and
finally gave way. ::
willie in the thick of the retreat,
one of Kuropatkin IS staff officers
dashed up with orders for Orloff to
just abandoned. Orlof's troops had
then retreated almost to Yen-tai sta
ton. There Samsonoff' IS Cossacks at
last rallied them somewhat, but all the
burden Of fighting the Japanese fell
upon the Cossacks. Samsonoff was in
formed that General Stakelberg was
hurrying to his rescue, but the latter

In the meantime Kuropatkin, believ%
! ing that his left had been turned, or
off, s Ccssacks saved the line of retreat
General Danieloff, who was temporari
ly in command Of the division while
Samsonoff was comforting with Kuro
patkin, threw the Cossacks desperately
against the Japanese when, the Latter
had almost reached the railroad north
Of Yen-tai. The slaughter which fol
lowed is described as frightful,7 the
Cossacks using their lances with ter
rible effect; but the Japanese managed
to hold on until Stakelberg arrived ane
; thus. preserved the railroad as a line

time during this fighting the Japanese
were fighting on two fronts. -:
