Toxic, Dec. 10.-The following re.

received from the commander of the
naval land batteries in front of Port
Arthur:
Eight shells struck the protected
cruiser Pallada today and set her on

deemed untitled for navigation.
During the action we discovered

were effective. This vessel is also
deemed to be disabled.
"The hits made by our naval and

TO FIGHT THE MEAT TRUST
Plans Launched For An Organization Of the
Stockgrowers To Fight the Meat
Trust. ~ :"

Chicago, Dec. 10.-The Tribune
says: Plans for the organization OF a
stock raisers' combine to embrace the
firms and ranches of the great Central
and Western country have been
launched in Chicago. A prime aim
will be to see that the packers do not
continue to carry off the lions share
Of the profits on meats.
Frank J. IIagenbarth, the new presi-
dent of the National Live Stock asso-
citation, in outlining the purposes of
the proposed combine, said:
'"For the purpose of organization
each branch of interest connected with
the live stock industry will be regard.
ed as an entity, or unit, and will form
the basis. Each will organize gen
eral committee. These will represent
the interests Of the branches creating
them and will select a representative
in central committee which will be
the whole executive authority of the
association.

TOXIC IS AsToNJsHED.
Russians Made No Resistance to Dis
abIing of Fleet.

abling OF Fleet.
Toxic, Dec. 1O.-Considerable aston
1shment is expressed here over the
fact that the Russians in no way re-
sisted the disabling of the Port Ar
thur fleet. In certain quarters the
opinion is entertained that the Rus
SLAMS opened the seacocks of the sub
merged vessels SO far as to lessen
their exposure to the Japanese fire.
The recent cessation of mine clearing
was taken as evidence that the feet
did not intend to make a sortie. There
was no sign of life on the Russian
ships during the bombardment and
from this fact it is concluded that the
bluejackets took refuge on land or
that they are engaged in the land de.
lenses.
With the Russian second Pacific
squadron approaching those in Toxic
cannot comprehend the failure of the
Russians to die hard and to infiict all
possible damage on the Japanese feet,
even at the cost Of weakening the ef-
1ective garrison.
Now that the Port Arthur fleet has
been disabled it Is deemed impossible
for the Russians to overcome the in
feriority of the second Pacific squad
ron to Togo's fleet unless the Black
sea fleet should pass the Dardanelles.

Loss Of Port Arthur Fleet.
ST. P eters5urg, Dec. 10.-The Asso
ciated Press is authorized to state that
even if every ship of the Port Arthur
squadron is destroyed it will have no
effect On Rojestvenskys plans, which
never contemplated assistance from
the Port Arthur squadron. The re-
ports of the sinking of number OF
the Russian ships, of which the ad
miralty has no confirmation, however,
causes feeling of extreme sadness in
high naval circles, where the plans of
Rear Admiral Wren, the commander
of the Port Arthur squadron, were
known.
1t seems incredible that when it be-
came apparent the ships were under
fire of the Japanese guns that they
were not taken out and sunk in deep
water, where they would be beyond
the possibility Of salvage. The only
way in which the officials here can
account for the failure to do SO is
that Admiral Wren was confronted
by conditions OF which the admiralty

The latest observations of the Japa
nese commanders in front of Port Al

the west harbor or in the visible por.
tons OF the east harbor. The kus'

the Japanese fire.

ENTIRE FAMILY MURDERED.
South Carolina Planter, Wife and Two
Daughters Slain.

Trenton, S. c., Dec. 10.-A hideous
crime occurred here Thursday night.
The residence of B. B. Hughes was
discovered to be on fire. AS soon as
the fire had died down searchers found
the charred and almost unacceptable
bodies of the entire family, consisting
of Mr.. Hughes, his wife and two young
daughters, Emma, aged nineteen, and
Hattie, aged fourteen.
Hughes body lay just below the hall
entrance to his room, with a bullet
hole through his head. A pistol lay
nearby. Part of his charred clothes
were on his person, showing that he
was dressed at the time he met his
death.
The bodies of his wife and two
daughters were on the bedsprings.
The skulls of these three were crushed
as if hit by an axe.
1t was said that three tracks were
discovered leading from the field up to
the rear of the house. Excitement
runs high. Governor Hayward has
offered a reward for the apprehension
of the guilty parties.

CANADIAN PACIFIC MONOPOLY.
Great Northern Withdrdaws From
G$SEH Victoria, B. c.

sf Victoria, B. c.
Victoria, B., c., Dec. 1O.-T. w. Pat
terson has announced to the Victoria
board Of trade at it's meeting that the
Great Northern railway had decided
to withdraw from this city and would
abandon all it's interests here within
a few months. Also that the Canadian
Pacific railway is now negotiating
with the Alaska Steamship company
of Seattle for the withdrawal of the
steamer Whatcom from the Victoria
Seattle route. on which it phys in op-
position to the steamer Princess
Beatrice, operated by the Canadian
Pacific Railway company. This would,
as Mr.. Patterson pointed out, give the
Canadian Pacific company complete
monopoly of the freight and passenger
traffic to and from Victoria.
The announcement made profound
impression on the members of the
board. The Canadian Pacific Railway
company is spending large sums here
on improvements of various kinds and
the city council and citizens have the
assurance Of the -company's directors
that it is the intention to make Vic
toria the headquarters of the COM
pany's business on the Pacific coast.
Nevertheless there is something like
CONSERVATION among the business COM
munity of Victoria.

STARvE OUT THE GARRISON
JAPS WILL AVOID BIG LOSSES BY
ABANDONING ASSAULTS ON
PORT ARTHUR.

Toxic, Dec. 10.-In, disabling the
Russian fleet at Port Arthur, preclud.
ing the possibility of its being able tc
reinforce the Russian second Pacific
squadron, the Japanese have accom-
plished the main object of the desper
ate assaults against the fortress which
they have been making for the past
three months. There is now a strong
probability that, while continuing the
siege, they will avoid losses OF the
magnitude already attending their eff
forts and instead of assaulting viii
rely on starving out the garrison until
it is finally captured.

IN HIGHLY NERVOUS STATE.
imprisonment Not Beneficial to Mrs.
=. -. Chadwick.

New York, Dec. 10.-In her lonely
cell in the Tombs prison, isolated even
from the other unfortunates whom fate
has led behind the prison walls, Mrs.
Cassie L. Chadwick, the former society
woman and now the central figure in
one of the most mysterious and sensa-
tional cases of the century, is waiting
while her counsel scours the city in
an effort to raise the $4,000 bail
which had been fixed as the price OF
her temporary liberty.
Mrs. Chadwick's Imprisonment in
the Tombs has not tended to- her re-
cOvery from her nervous attacks. She
Is in highly nervous state, having
passed night of watchfulness. She
was very nervous during the night
and, was wide awake until nearly 4
o'clock in the morning, when she slept
q little. With frequent intervals of
waking she slept until shortly after Z
o'clock, when the noise of other pris-
oners preparing for the mornings
breakfast aroused her. IT,.
Warden Flynn of the Tombs was SO
nervous over the welfare of Mrs.
Chadwick and the possibilities of her
doing herself bodily harm that he en-.
forced the rule applied only in excep'
tional cases of not allowing her either
knife or fork with which to eat. Con-
sequent1y the lamb chop which she Or
dered had to be cut for her and she
ate it with spoon. ~.
1t is expected that Receiver Lyon
of the Citizens National bank of Ober-
lin, O., will return to Cleveland at once
and that his arrival there will be fol-
lowed by the issue OF additional COM
plants against Mrs. Chadwick charg-
ing forgery and based either on the
Carnegie notes or paper given by Mrs.
Chadwick as securities for loans. The
character of these other papers is care
fully. guarded from public knowledge
but it is intimated that they are a
part of the sensational developments
anticipated when the financial transac-
tons of Mrs. Chadwick are uncovered
to public view. ''.. ...

and Discusses Corporations. ~
Washington, Dec. 10.-Charles S.
Mellen, president of the New Haven
railroad, was a guest at the White
House dinner. He also saw Mr.. Roose-
welt during the afternoon. Much i'm
portance is attached to the visit Of
Mr.. Mellen to the White House. He
and. Mr.. Roosevelt have been close
friends for many years. In his chap
ter on corporations in the message to
congress the president quotes from a
speech delivered by Mr.. Mellen. 1t is
this fact which creates the impression
that the visit is significant. III sfg5
It is believed that during his visit
the president and Mr.. Mellen dis
cussed the propositions that have been
advanced for arranging q better I'M
derstanding between corporations and
the public, possibly including the ques-
ton Of rebates, but more especially
such features as refer to full publicity.
