SPREAD OF SOCIALISM.
Noted Leader Says Strikes and
Trusts Are Helping Ii Along.

New York. Sept. Emile Wander
vele, leader Of the Socialist party in
Belgium and one of the foremost expo.
nents If Socialism in Europe, who has
arrived here accompanied 10y Senator
Houzeau. 10 attend the inter parlia-
mentary union in ST Louis this month
declares that he is watching the
growth Of Socialism in America with
keen interest
There Is no occasion for alarm over
the spread Of social revolution. which
he says, is in progress here to even a
greater extent than in Europe.
AT first in the nature of an impor-
tation from Germany" he continued.
THE doctrine of Socialism appears to
have spread 70 considerable class Of
those that call themselves native born
Americans.
During the last five years especial
~ the movement seems TO have gone
forward by leaps and bounds, until
now / ind many Americans that !
have met admitting their belief IN
many Of the doctrines Of Socialism
whereas ten years ago they would as
soon have thought Of calling them
selves anP re hists.
In Europe there is no opportunity
for anything but a peaceful revolu-
ton; the military powers are too
strong. In the United States there Is
the opportunity, but not the desire for
any such radical measure. But though
the movement is Of slow growth il is
certain, and the day will come in the
lifetime Of many Of the young men of
today when the country will be ruled
according 70 the doctrines the Social
lists teach.
Strikes, Of which you seem 10 have
so many. and the trusts which ! hear
so many persons speaking Of as men
ace to the copptry's future, are only
stepping stones in the Development Of
Socialism. and should be accepted
philosophlcally.

A MASTERLY RETREAT.
kurOpdtkin'S Army Again
WithdrdwS in Face of
the japanese.

ST. Petersburg, sept. 2.-Tbe jap
anese have occu pied Liaoyang and the
Russian army has withdrawn TO the
right bank Of the Taitze river. The
following statement has been obtained
by the Associated Press from the war
Office:
Gen. kuroki's army crossed in
force TO the right bank of the Taitze
river. and ii therefore became neces-
sary for the Russians TO be in posi-
tion to repel blow IN this direction
In view of this development in the
operations Gen. Kuropatkin decided 10
abandon his positions on the left bank
and TO concentrate his whole army on
the other side. This position is the
strongest, both in character and site.
The great issue will be finally decided
there.
By withdrawing 10 this position
the Russian army avoids the danger
Of being divided by the river, and en-
Joys the advantage Of compactness.
Gen kuropatkin' move. therefore,
is not TO be considered as a retreat
but rather as the carrying out Of "A
well defined idea
The withdrawal Of the Russians TO
the right bank involved the abandon
