Secret Service Men
Invade Mormon
Colony.
Special plspatch to nae can.


CHEYENNE, Wyo., Oct. 1S.-Secret
service men have arrested William IA.
Remington. United States Commits
sioner at Alton, in the Star Valley
Mormon settlement of Western
Wyoming, on a charge Of polygamy,
and, it is said, other arrests will oc-
cur shortly.
The disclosures made by the Govern
ment detectives have caused a sensa-
tion in Wyoming, and it is feared the
results will have material effect upon
the election in November.
Frequent reports from Star Valley
have stated that the Mormons there
were practicing polygamy and that one
man lived openly with five wives, but
owing to the remoteness of the settle
ment and the fact that all of the resi-
dents are Mormons and that Gentiles
seldom visit the district the facts have
been kept from the public
Recently an elector on the Republi-
can ticket was removed because of
his polygamist record, and now that
members of the church are being pros
ecuted. it is said, the Mormon vote.

lican, viii go to the Democrats.

Mrs. Johnson lived alone and the
neighbor heard her moaning in agony.
She found Mrs Johnson stretched on
her porch, pool of blood at her feet
and another at her head
She was stiff from cold. Evidently
she had been lying on the porch or
elsewhere in the open air all night.
Just below her right temple was a tri-
angular confusion. No blood had
flowed from this wound. There was an
abrasion of the right cheek bone and
the right eye was blackened Under
the point of the lower jaw was a small
bruise. The right arm was bruised and
swollen, particularly the wrist. The
left arm was also bruised. as were the
lower limbs.
z. A. Johnson, the son, says little.
"She must have fallen and struck her
head. Maybe she bit her tongue when
she fell. Th1t woul account for the
blood" he declares.
The floor of the porch where Mrs.
Johnson lay when found was perfectly
clean.
The circumstances may point to g
foul murder for robbery.

MUKDEN, Oct. 1S.-As this dispatch
is filed on Tuesday evening the Rus
slams are retaining the ground gained
at the Shakhe River. Several Maxims
have been captured. The firing ceased
after dark to-day.
1t is reported that General Mistchen-
kos Cossacks, under command OF Ad-
jutant Gavritoff, were engaged in a hot
fight on October II toward the south

communication between the Russian
center and the eastern flank
The Japanese made a determined ef
fort to cut the line of communication
at this point and attacked under cover
of a terrific cannonade. Out of one
company of Russian rifle brigade only
fifty men were left. Two companies
that had expended their ammunition
prior to the last Japanese attack lay
in the trenches until the Japanese were
within few PAGES. Then the Russians
hurled a volley of stones, charged and
broke the attacking line, compelling
the Japanese to flee.
There was lighting to-day on both
sides of the Great Mandarin road.

personally directing the forward opera
tions. Nothing seems to affect him,
but he wears his usual quiet smile un-
der all circumstances.

swords beside their guns.
FURIOUS JAPANESE ATTACK.
1t is reported that the Japanese made
furious attempt to take a wooded hill
near Da Pass last night. The firing
began at IL o'clock and continued with
rifle and cannon through the night
This action probably was part Of an
attempt by the Japanese, who were al
ready in possession of small hills in the
plains, to rush the center along the
foothills at the Shakhe River.
1t rained all last night, but the roar
of the artillery did not cease for mo-
ment. To-day broke cold and with a
cutting wind. The roads have. been
ruined by the rain.
Cossacks brought in captured guns
and Japanese wounded prisoners on
October II. Russian soldiers surround
ed the prisoners and gave them bread
and water and in other ways tried to
relieve their wants.

Scarcely Able to Care for the Thou
sands of Russian Wounded.
MUKDEN, Oct. 1S.-The fighting of
the 17th was confined to the Russian
center at Shakhe River and was most
ly artillery fire, the Japanese using
big guns and high explosive shells.
During the nine days of continuous
fighting the Russian losses were never
less than 1000 per day. The hospitals
are hardly able to handle the wound
ed. Nevertheless they have performed
wonders.
The Chinese have deserted all the
villages and the troops are using the
woodwork of their houses for fuel.
The country south is desolated- The
Japanese still seem to be exerting
themselves TO force the Russians out
OF Mukden. A battle in the positions
surrounding the town is certain. 1t
becomes more and more evident that
the resources of the country cannot
support a large army. This seasons
crops are spoiled.
General Kuropatkin remains with
the troops, having abandoned his
headquarters at Mukden.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 1S.-"Helen Keller
day" named in honor Of Miss Helen
Adams Keller Of Boston, who, born
deaf, dumb and blind. has acquired ma
tional fame through her educational
success, was celebrated at the Worlds
Fair grounds to-day with exercises
which were participated in by promi-
nent educators Of the deaf, dumb and
blind from all parts of the United
States. Miss Keller is the only person
in whose honor the fair officials have
designated a special day.
The annual conference of the super
intendents Of American schools for the
deaf, in session here, suspended the
regular order Of business in honor Of
Miss Keller and took part in the exer-
cises. which were held in the Hall Of
Congresses.
Professor E. NJ Gallaudet of Wash
ington presided and introduced Miss
Keller. whose address proved the feat
ure Of the exercises. In addition to her
other accomplishments, Miss Keller has
learned 10 speak in a well modulated
voice, with unusually plain articula-
iasm.
Miss Keller's speech, taken in con-
nection with an explanation of the
methods by which she was taught by
her teacher, Miss Sarah Fuller, was
named by many as the most wonderful
thing in all the display Of the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition 1t seemed in
credible that one could learn to speak
as Miss Keller spoke, simply by feeling
the lips and throat of her teacher as
she enunciated syllables.
Crowds followed the young woman
about all day and no visiting celebrity.
Prince or potentate, has attracted half
the attention
Addresses were made by Miss Sarah
Fuller Of Boston, Miss Keller's personal
instructor: William Wade of Oak

Washington and Warning Wilkinson of

Charles wyman was held yesterday
to answer in the Superior Court to
the charge of illegal voting at the pri-
mary election. Police Judge Cabaniss
rendered his decision Immediately
after the taking Of testimony had been
closed and fixed bail at the same
amount it has been during the pre-
liminary examination, $4,000 bond or
s25OO cash.
The attorney for the prisoner at
once sued out a writ of habeas corpus
before Judge Carroll Cook. which was
made returnable this morning at 10
o'clock. Reckoning of counsel was
faulty, however, for the Judge refused
to release the petitioner on bail until
the Sheriff shall have brought him
into court. Wyman therefore had to
spend the night behind the bars-the
first experience he has had in a cell
since his arrest, bail having always
been at his command.
'It won't hurt him. was the com
the young saloon-keeper's usual good
spirits appeared to forsake him when
he learned that he must go to prison
for the night.
The other important development
of the day in the election frauds cases
was a communication from Judge
Lawlor to Foreman Lilienfeld of the
Grand Jury concerning the resolution
the District Attorney be instructed to
proceed against the Election Commits
sioners to oust them from office. The
reply of the presiding Judge is not to
meets tomorrow. 1t is believed that
Judge Lawlor cannot see fit to comply
with the request that he give direc-
tions to the District Attorney.
The Grand Jury will probably make
a request of the District Attorney that
he prefer the charges of misfeasance
against the Election Board. Assur-
ances have been received by the fore
man that there would be prompt COM
pliance, for the fact that it was called
to the attention of the prosecuting Of
fetal that an offense against the law
had been committed would make it
incumbent on him to go ahead with
the case.
CANNOT ESCAPE PROSECUTION.
The Merchants Association stands
ready to prosecute the Commission
ers if the District Attorney fails to
take the step. The merchants, how
ever, will make the accusation that of
felony, for they will not be content
with mere ousting from office What
ever the action of Judge Lawlor may
be that he is so anxious to withhold
there appears to be no escape for the
Election Commissioners from charges
of failing to follow the requirements
of law in appointing of precinct
boards.
There was some spirited argument
during the concluding testimony at the
Wyman hearing over the opening of
an envelope containing the poll list of
the Seventy third Precinct, the de-
tense making strenuous objection. But
Judge Cabaniss took the responsibility
on himself. The election officers were
then called, one after another. for they
had to be put under oath before reveal
ing anything. and 1t was learned that

repopulated. All the roads are crowd
ed with army traffic.
The fighting on October Is was most
severe. Fifty wounded were counted
in one hour passing a point on one
country pathway. Already the casual
ties reported are so great as to confirm
the declaration Of the leaders that the
present conflict would be the bloodiest
in history. 1t is not possible to-day to
make any close estimate OF the Rus
sian casualties.

tions in the plain along the Shakhe

but the bitterness and tenacity OF the
fight indicates certain conditions In the
Eastern army about which little Is
known
After Threatening day the Japan
ese, beginning at IL o'clock on tSe night
Of October Is, rushed the village OF
Linchenpo. on the north bank OF the
Shakhe River. and west OF the rail-
way, preeipitating a laundering can
nonade and fusilade. which continued
until midnight. the rifle fire continuing
until dawn.
The japanese now occupy the raised
temple quadrangle near Linchenpo, the
only eminence for miles around. and
which affords an unusual advantage
for observation and artillery fire
against the Russian right. Several at
tempts to dislodge them have failed
To-day Japanese were falling at Chan
chiapo, near Paitapo, showing that the
heavy and continuous Russian can
nonade has been ineffective.
