the erection of these rude piles of Stones. The glaring crimson of the soil and cliffs in the vicinity of the Hole in the Wall probably impressed them with greater superstitious terror than did any other phenomenon en- countered on tha trail, and at this point their efforts to please the gods were especially apparent The trail leads directly through the Hole in the Wall, the canyon that in later years was made famous as a resort of des- peradoes. On the bleak pass overlook ing the hole and the Red valley and in the canyon of the hole, it Is there that the monuments merge into an almost continuous wall.
 The earliest explorers of this region noted these monuments and the trail. then apparently as ancient and sunken as at the present day. The Indians did not know the origin of the trail, but had many superstitions concerning it. One that 1t had been used as a high way by the gods who reigned at the be- ginning of the world. did not prevent their taking advantage of the easy travel that it afforded. Even today the monuments are several feet in height and during the time sthat the trail was most travelled must have been inn posing piles.-Rocky Mountain News.

NAVY AGAINST ARMY.
A Mixed Battle Takes Place Along the
 Yalu.

Tokio, April 2S.-The Japanese gum ooat Maya accompanied by several tor pedo boats entered and ascended the Yalu on Monday, April 25th and fought a series of small engagements with the Russian land forces. Admiral Hoy oya, in command of the third squadron in his official report says:
 Our detachment reached Yalu on Monday. While going up stream th,. enemy's field guns opened against us. without effect. We discovered a force of the enemy on an island in mid- stream. We fired upon them and they fled. On Tuesday the enemys cavalry, a hundred strong attacked us. Our torpedo boats replied and the enemy fed to the mountains leaving several wounded. At 3 o'clock on Tuesday the enemy opened fire on us from Antsu- shan. We replied and silenced them after half an hour. There were no cas- ualties on our side"

A CONFIRMATION OF
The Story as Received by the Japanese
 Minister at Washington.

Washington, April 2S.-The following cablegram from Tokio has been re- ceived by the Japanese minister here:
 'The commander of the Japanese de- tachment sent to the Yalu reports that the detachment arrived on the 25th at the mouth of the Yalu and that while ascending the river the Russian artillery fired upon the detachment from the bank opposite Yongampho. but without effect. The Russian cavalry appeared at the delta of the river, but retreated upon being fired upon by the Japanese naval detachment.
 About one hundred Russian cav alrymen fired upon the Japanese steam launches, whereupon a Japanese tor pedo boat answered and the enemy fled behind the hills, leaving many wound ed. There were no casualties on the Japanese side. About o'clock on the afternoon of the 26th the enemy again fired upon the Japanese from the di- rection of Antung. The Japanese re- piled and the Russians were silenced after about an hours fighting. The Japanese sustained no loss"

port of Admiral Yeszen to the emperor follows:
 During the night of April 18th. two Russian torpedo boats met at sea the Japanese military transport, the Kim shiu Maru, 1000 tons, laden with rice other military stores and 1500 tons Of coal. The transport was armed with four Hotchkiss guns of forty-scven milimetres.
 'The Russians captured seventeen officers. eighty-f five military carriers, sixty-five of her crew and twenty sol diers, who surrendered. The rcmaind- CT of the men, who were to form land . ing parties, left without officers, ob :. stinately refused to surrender or go aboard a Russian cruiser. They fur ,. thermore offered armed resistance to the Russians. In the end they were sent to the bottom with the transport" :"
 The number of men drowned Is not given. Admiral Yeszen also reports that besides sinking the Japanese steanier Goyo Maru at Gensan on April 18th. ths Russians sank the same evening the Japanese steamer, Nakamura MOru, 200 tons, whose crew was saved.
 The Associated Press Is inforued that no further news was received from GenSan or Tau.

THE OLD SIOUX TRAIL.
Prehistoric Highway From Central to
 British America.

When the Belgo-American Drilling companys new railroad is built from Orin Junction to Lander, a, few miles west of Casper, Wyo., there will be af- forded the opportunity to make a strik- ing comparison of the highways of the present and the past. The railroad grade will cross what is known as the Sioux trail. a sharply defined pathway nt that point, but north and south traceable only by widely separated manuments. This trail extends from Central America to British Columb a. and its origin has never been deter mined, the name Sioux trail' having been derived from the fact that it was extensively used by the Indians of this region in early days.
 At the point where the railroad will cross this ancient highway, and for many miles on either side, the trail Is marked by great monuments of lo2se stones piled at intervals of a few feet. As progress is made eitser to the north or to the south these monuments become more isolated and finally oc- eur only at long and uncertain d.s- tances.
 The greatest number of them occur In the pass leading down to the Hole In the Wall, seventy miles north of Casper. There they form a solid wall for distance of several miles, there being but slight indentations in the barrier to distinguish one monument from another. Parallel to this wall

runs the trail, which, where the ground Is soft, has been worn to depth of more than a foot. It is just wide enough for ponies to travel over 1t in single file.
 It is said that the stone monuments are so numerous near the Hole In the Wall for the reason that this is a sa- cred locality, and each traVeler passing that way carried a stone, which he added to the monuments. That this was done is well known, as the custom was adhered to by the Indians to a comparatively recent date. If the num- Der of stones in the monuments repre- sents the number of Indians and ear ter inhabitants that passed over the trail, then its travel has exceeded that of all the transcontinental railroads combined.
 Archaeologists who have examined the monuments are of the opinion that they were formed purely from religious motives, as they are too numerous to have been intended for guidestones, and frequently in sections where there Is but one trail. and guidestones would have been superfuous.
 They account for the great number of them in Wyoming and the scattered few in Central America, Mexico and the southern states through which the trail passes, by the theory that the trail was originated and used by the people of the far south who utilized it in travel from their domain to the splendid hunting grounds in British Columbia. They are supposed to have been an intensely superstitious race, builders of temples and monuments 10 ther gods, who sought to placate strange gods in a strange country by

DIR. Swigart returned from Leslie
this forenoon, bringing nearly lou
hounds of ore from the drift and shaft
of the Strong mine. He says he is
perfectly satisfied.
"The vein in the shaft Is four feet
eight inches wide, while in the drift
the miners cannot tell the width,
though it Is wider than the drift.
Everything is ore. some of 1t very
rich, but most of it a concentrating
ore. We have three miners who
worked several years at Butte, Mont,
for Clark. Daily and Heinze. They
all say 1t is a better average grade of
ore than that at Butte. One of them,
who Is working in the drift, says he
doubts II we are drifting with the
vein. but thinks we r in fact cross
cutting, and that what We call our wall
is really a seam running across the
vein. He points to the cross seams
of rich ore going both ways into tn
walls, and to the fact that the spur OF
the mountain on which the Strong Is
located runs at right angle to the
wall. We are following to prove it.
This may be true. but it does not APP
ear likely to me. One thing | am
satisfied of is, II we had a %concentra-
tor We could supply it with ore both
from the mine and the dump"

DEFENSE
SENATOR FROM KANSAS BEGINS
HIS SIDE OF CONTROVERSY
At ST. LOUIS.
Attorney for Rialto Grain and securi.
ties Company Declares Senator
Was Not Employed to Use Official
Position to Influence Government
But to Avoid Trouble,

st. Louis, Mo, March 25.-In the
case Of Senator Burton. the govern
ment has demonstrated thus far that
the Kansas statesman was paid in
cash for services rendered to the Ri
alto Grain and Securities company,
one Of the get-rich-quick concerns. He
received $500 a month as their attor-
ney in seeking to prevent the issuance
Of fraud orders by the postal depart
ment.
This morning the defense of Senator
Burton began. The motion was made
that the third count of the indictment
against the senator be quashed. This
the court granted and testimony began
on the other six counts. The first wit
ness was Thomas B. Harlan, the Rial
to company's lawyer. He told of the
employment of Senator Burton, saying
that Burton had laid particular stress
upon the fact that as a United States
senator he could not undertake any
duties d%erogatory to his office. The
witness said that Burton had not done
this, SO far as he knew. A number Of
minor employees of the company also
took the stand in behalf of the senator
together with Mr.. Harland. Their tes.
timony was to the effect that the SEN
ator was not engaged to appear before
the government departments at Wash
ington on behalf of the company, but
his chief duty was to pass upon the
company's literature with a view to
avoiding q conflict with the postal
laws. Harlan was most emphatic in
his statement that Burton was not en-
ployed to influence by his high oficias
position any government employee or
department. Burton is taking an ac-
tive part in his own defense, counsel
Ing frequently with his lawyers and fol.
lowing every development with the
closest attention. 1t 10 expected that
the senator will take the stand in his
own behalf.

American Copper company. This prop
