VICTIMS OF COLLISION.
Train and Trolley Cars Crash in Chi

Killed; Many Hurt.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Four persons were
killed Wednesday afternoon in COLI
sion at Colorado avenue between an in
coming train of the Chicago Great West
ern railroad and Forty-eighth avenue
trolley train of the Consolidated Trac-
ton company. Twenty-seven others
were injured, some of them fatally, and
two persons are missing.
The trolley train was crowded to the
running boards with a crowd which in
cluded many women bound for the Haw
thorne race track. 1t was running at
high speed when 200 feet to the south of
the railway crossing the flagman gave
a signal warning the motorman of the
approach of the passenger train. The
warning was ample, except for the fact
that the trolley cars had gained consid-
cradle momentum in rapid run from
Madison street and for the additional
fact that the brakes failed to hold.

Predicts Success for the
Democracy.

White Sulphur Springs, w. Va, Aug.
18.-Henry G. Davis Wednesday was
formally notified of and formally accept
ed his nomination by the democratic
party for vice president of the United
States. The ceremonies took place in
the open air in the grounds of Green
Brier, White Sulphur Springs hotel and
were marked by simplicity in every de-
tail.
John Sharp Williams opened the GER
emonies with his speech notifying the
candidate of the action of the conven-
ton.
Mr.. Williams reviewed the blum
ders Of the country's rulers from
the barring out of the Indians from the
suffrage by New England settlers to
the Indianola post Office dispute on the
color question.
In accepting the nomination Mr.. Da-
Wis said in part:
Unexpectedly called as l am now to
the forefront, l am impelled to an &C
ceptance of the obligation by a sense
of gratitude to my fellow workers and
the hope that may be able the better
to assist in restoring to power that
party whose principles and past his
tory guarantee a safe, wise, economical
and constitutional administration Of
the government. l heartily indorse the
platform upon which I have been NOM
mated, and, with the convention and its
nominee for president, regard the pres
ent monetary standard of value as ire
vocably established.
I'm the campaign preceding the last
election much stress was laid by repub-
| lican speakers upon the prosperous con-
Gition of the country and forebodings
were heard of the i'll results, especially
to the laboring man, which would fol-
low any change in the political COM
plexion of the government.
with a candidate whose personality
appeals to the good sense and sound
judgment of the American people, a
platform whose principles are for the
greatest good to the greatest number
and reunited party earnest for the
restoration of good and economical gov
eminent, we should succeed and the
principles of the democracy again tri-
umph.
Il beg my countrymen, as they value
their liberty, to guard with great care
the sacred right of local self-govern-
ment and to watch with jealous eye
the tendency of the times to centralize
power in the hands of the few"

PORT ARTHUR is
SURELY DOOMED
Japanese Continue Fierce Assault on Strong
hold-SIowly Gaining Ground-Losses
Are Enormous Cars
Navy Is Crushed.

Chefoo, Aug. ia battle of huge
proportions ragged around Port Arthur
August IA and Is, and was resumed
August II. The japanese, it is re-
ported, sacrificed 10000 men, but
gained important advantages in the
matter of position. The above news
was brought here on junks, one of
which, having on board three Rus
slams concealed in the baggage of
Chinese to escape from the Japanese,
left Port Arthur Wednesday nigh:
and was blown rapidly to Chefoo by a
gale. The main force of the attack
was directed against the left wing.
and resulted in the capture of Pigeon
bay positions and some of the forts
at Liaotieshan. At Palunchang the
japanese hastily mounted guns,
which did excellent service in aiding
the storming of the right wing, where
the japanese are SAID to have cap
tured two forts of minor value,
mounting eight four-inch guns, two
siege guns and six quick-fring guns
Surrender Demanded.
On the night of the 18th the bat
tie lulled somewhat when the Japan
csc sent the terms of surrender to
Lieut. Gen. Stoessel. The terms pro-
vided that the garrison should march
out with the honors of war and join
Gen. Kuropatkin; that all civilians be
brought to a place designated by the
japanese admiral that the Russian
warships in the harbor numbering
seven, namely, the battleships Retvi-
IAN, Sevastopol, Pobieda, Peresvieu,
Poltava, the armored cruiser Bayan,
and the protected cruiser Pallada, and
IL or more torpedo boat destroyers
and four gunboats to be surrendered
to the Japanese.
Stoessel Refuses.
Gen. Stoessers treatment of Mai.
Vomoka, the Japanese messenger, was
courteous, but his reply was prompt
and characteristic. The Japanese
major then asked for a three days
truce in which to bury the dead. This
was refused. The battle was renewed
at ten o'clock on the morning of the
18th, and as the junk left it was being
waged furiously ON all sides.
A frightful incident of the recent
fighting, the refugees state, occurred
in the storming of forts three and four
on the right wing when land mines
were exploded. 1t is alleged that two
Japanese infantry regiments, two
squadrons Of cavalry and one artillery
company were destroyed.
The Japanese Terms.
Toxic, Aug. 19.-Maj. Yomoka, rep
resenting the Japanese forces besieg-
ing Pert Arthur, met the Russian chief
of the garrison staff about 600 yards
north of Shoshjying at 1890 a. m.

FOREIGN INTELLI0ENCE.

A demand has been made by Japan
that China drive Russian warships from
her harbors or the mikado's fleet will
enter and capture them, thus involving
China in the war.

August 16 under flag of truce and de-
livered to him the emperor's offer to
remove noncombatants to a place of
safety. The tender included women
and children under 16 years of age,
priests, diplomats and officers of neu-
trail powers. The conditions of the
answer required that on August II at
ten o'clock the noncombatants should
advance under a flag Of truce. At two
o'clock August II a detachment of jap
anese infantry would accept their de-
livery at the conference point and con.
voy them to Dalny together with a linn
tied amount of baggage, the examina-
ton of which was to be optional. Non
combatants were forbidden to bring
books, writings, documents and articles
relating to the war. The Russians
were required to answer either yes or
no, and they were not allowed to alter
the Japanese conditions.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 2O.-Acute anx-
iety prevails regarding the situa-
ton at Port Arthur on account
of the desperate character of the
fighting as reported taking place
though the war Office does not
seem to believe the danger of the fall
of efortress is so imminent as is gen.
orally asserted. According to reports
received by the war office, there is still
an ample supply of ammunition and
provisions there. While it is realized
that the Japanese probably outnumber
the defenders six or sevenfold, the
great strength of the Notifications, it
is believed, will do much to make up
for the disparity in numbers.
Must Fight to the Death.
Upon one point there rs absolute
unanimity here-namely, that if the
fortress falls the feet will not fall
into the hands of the Japanese. On
this point the admirality's instructions
are of the most imperative character
Vice Admiral Prince Ouktomsky has
been ordered, should the worst come, to
sally forth for death struggle and
there is no question here that these in
structions will be carried out, both in
letter and in spirit, but if for any rea-
son a final sortie proves to be i'm
possible the admiral is to destroy his
ships and make sure that their wrecks
shall be absolutely irreparable
Must Disarm or Leave.
Washington, Aug. 2O.-Consul Gener-
al Goodnow has cabled the state de-
partment from Shanghai that the Chi
nese taotai there has reported against
the claim of the Russian consul general
and decided that the torpedo boat de-
stroyer now at that port must go out

the cruiser must do likewise by the 21st
inst.

Everybody will certainly feel it their
duty to congratulate the car that he
has son and heir, and everybody will
rejoice that he has abolished the Gus
tom of inficting corporal punishment
on the peasant class, but there are
Americans who can hardly admire the
manner in which he has connected
these two things. Corporal punish
ment is not any more brutal nor any
less so on account of the addition to
the ears family. If it was wrong he
ought to have abolished it long ago,
and If it is right he ought not to abol,
fsh it.

Japan's war debt is said to amount
already to $1OO,0O0,00O. AS Japan is
not rich country and its sources of in
come are limited, it will be long time
in lifting the burden of this debt. In
case it wins in the conflict with the
Russians, it will pay dearly for victory
in both men and money.
