ST. Petersburg, Sept 2O.-While still

Russian position is now at Tie Pass

Official reports to the war Office are
to the effect that the japanese did not
make any further move towards Muk-
den until September Il. when recon-
noissances in force disclosed that they
were still massing at Yentai and Bent
siaputze. No Japanese have been dis
covered east OF the latter point The
reconnOissances, General Kuropatkin
says. we're brilliantly carried out by
Generals SamsOnOns and Rennen-

mixed detachment of infantry and ar

north of Bentsiaput2e, which was used
as a pivot. The Russians drew or later

thoritative confirmation or denial OF

Paris Fad for "DOg TogSery"
Reaches America and Attracts

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New York July 30.-From Paris the lat
est automobile fad has come. and the dog
that goes motoring with his master or
mistress will hereafter wear goggles.
coat and cap in America. just as his Eu-
ropean brother has been doing for several
years.
Already the more pretentious automo-
bile supply houses in this city have begun
to take orders for dog toggery." One
dealer has set tailors to work fashioning
nine outfits for one customer who has
dogs ranging from pug to Great Dane.
This dealer has placed dog model in
his window attired in the full up to-date
automobile accoutrements.
Women will be very prompt to take I'D
this new fad. the automobile supply deaf
ers believe. 1t has long been a custom in
France to protect pet dogs with the pc
culiar outfit of the automooiists, and 1t
is contended by those who have set :he
fashion that q dog needs such protection
quite as much as human being
1t is argued that the dogs eyes are
even more susceptible to the Injurious ef-
feet of wind and dust than are those Of
the autofnobilist. and for this reason he
Is entitled to the protection afforded by
goggles.
Lap dogs. accustomed to the atnosphere
OF house. cannot stand the chilling ef-
feet of the draught created by the swift
motion of the automobile on country
roads, 1t is asserted, and for this reason
they must have an automobile coat.
SO the New York dog that goes riding
in touring car henceforth. IL he be a
real stylish dog. must put on all the
ne pug. bull terrier. greyhound or Great
Dane
