DEFENSIVE CAMPAIGN.
Japanese Army Making Elaborate Prep-
 aratiOns to Cheek Russians.

oHanoHs AO NASSh@ Aeu9saeAtass
 Huanshan. Dec. Everything con- tinues quiet along the front of the hos tile armies. There is little expectation Of a decisive movement till spring. when it will be possible for both sides to throw in strong -reinforcements and re-commence the campaign in earnest. Iii the meantime the chier Japanese un- easiness seems to be with regard to their communications eastward. They have an unusually full equipment of narrow-gauge field railways, one of which connects General Kuroki's base at shahedzi with Feng- Wang -Cheng. with branch to Siamatsza. A supple mentary line is being constructed con- meeting Liao Yang with Hai Cheng. There is an important line of ware houses along the Yalu river and many bridges have recently been constructed with a care unusual in field operations. This elaborate system has been serious ly threatened by General Rennen- kampff's raids southeastward.
 There are many evidences that the Japanese are strengthening and fortfy- ing their line of communications toward Korea, which necessarily will absorb d considerable force.

WILL POSTPONE TALBOT CASE
Provision of New Canon wfri Require
 Another Commission.

Philadelphia, Dec. 2S.-That there will be no hearing of the charges against Bishop Ethelbert Talbot, of the diocese of central Pennsylvania, by the court recently appointed by Bishop Futile, is the statement made by churchmen who are well posted in the eanonical law of the Episcopal church. A complication has developed which they say will astoD effectively the pros ceedings of the court of Inquiry as now constituted.
 The trouble comes from a recent change in the canons of the church regarding the appointment of a court of that nature. The first intimation of the trouble comes in the shape of an editorial which will appear in the issue tomorrow of the Church Standard, . the oldest organ of the church in this country. Tn the editional in question, Rev. Dr. John Fulton, the editor, will say in reference to the Irvine Talbot case that the presiding bishop has con- stituted the board of inquiry under a canon which was superseded by a new canon of the late general convention. The new canon will go into operation on January 1, 1905. The board of in quiry is called to meet on January 10, and when it does meet 1t will not be constituted as the new canon requires. It will, therefore, have no power to proceed with the inquiry for which it is called.

PATRoLMA0 coMM1TrrD.
Sent to Tombs on Charge of Murder in
 First Degree.

New York Dec. ,28 When Frank Me- Laughlin, a patrolman. appeared in the criminal court to-day to plead to an in. dictment charging assault upon James E Robbins a newspaper reporter. ld was ordered to the Tolnbs without bail. on charge of murder in the first de, gree. The new charge was based upon an indictment which District Attorney Jerome said would be returned by the grand jury when it makes it report to- morrow. Mclaughlin was once before arrested in connection with this case. which charges the killing of John W. Patterson, a watchnan. The coroner's s jury found that he shot Patterson in self-defense and he was discharged. The district attorney was not satisfied with that disposition of the case, however. and began an investigation, which, hs says, has resulted i'm an indictment Echarging murder in the first degree. The assault charge upon which Me- Laughlin was brought into court to-day has attracted considerable attention in police circles.

 ''The renlittances." said MT. Elliott to-day, were the largest in the history of the postoff1ce. The figures show an unusual distribution also. For instance, Italy came second in the list of bene- ficiaries, in point of money received, and good first in the amount of in dividual orders.
 "Great Britain, as a matter of course, got more money and more orders, but averaging the amount or the separate orders it is seen that the recipients got but little more than $10 apiece. The Italian orders show an average of more than $50 each.
 Portugal had the smallest average. The average of the orders forwarded to that country was $2. Even Luxem- bourg, which was at the bottom of the list from the standpoint of the number of orders, showed an average somewhat larger. Egypt had slightly the best of Portugal, too.,'

Cnoate has not sent his resignation or any conlmuni- cation on the subject to President Roosevelt or the state department, nor has he received any inquiry either from the president or Secretary Hay concern ing his future plans.

"Six years is a long slice out of the life. or a man of my age" said MT. Choate recently to friends here. and while have enjoyed the life and the people have met in England, I have determined to so home and devote the remainder of my time to looking after my own affairs"
