Chicago, Oct. 27.-The purchase of
the National Bank of North America
by the Continental National Bank is
announced, effective at once. This &C

is believed will continue up to tn

mained on the scene for six hours

ing was a torpedo boat either waiting
for her consort or repairing the dam
age inflicted by the fire of his ships.
1t is pointed out that the original
version of the incident as recited by
the captain of the trawler Moulmein
comedies closely with the story of
Rojestvensky. The Captain said tna1
while the squadron was passing he
suddenly noticed two torpedo boats
which approached SO near he thoLaht
they were going to lombard MIN,
when they suddenly sheered off
heading back for the squadron. AL
most Immediately afterward the
squadron opened fire. According to
it specifically states that there wee
no torpedo boats with the squa Iron
when the incident occurred. If this
be true the statement Of the British
captain completely cOrroborates that
of ROjestvensky In view of the com
pletely new complexion placed upon
the incident it is readily conceivable
that Russian may make representa-
tions to Great Britain, and that the
whole intent of the exchanges be
tween the two governments regarding
the affair may be altered.

Roietsxenskx,s Story.

ST Petersburg, Oct. 27.-Vice Ad-
miral Rojestvensky's explanation OF
the trawler incident is fully as sensa-
tional as the news of the firing uuon
the fishing feet which set all E1g-
land afame. He declares that he was
attacked by two torpedo boats which
came upon the squadron from the
direction of the fishing fleet. He op-
ened fire and believes he sunk one
of the torpedo boats, the other max
ing off for cover among the fishing
boats. The admiral proceeded on his
way without leaving any vessel be
hind, and says he believes the YES

Situation of Great Tension.

Mukden, Oct. 26.-The situation j.
one of great tension for both sides
Kuropatkin and Oyama seem to be
watching each other, and it is impos-
sible to tell which will make the first
serious move. There are occasional
exchanges of desultory firing at the
outpOsts, but nothing of great impor-
tance has transpired. On SUNDAY
night the Japanese made a feeble at.
tempt on Lone Tree hill, but the at
tack was not pressed The tree that
gave the name to the hill has disap-
peared. 1t was cut down Monday for
firewOOd.

London, Oct. 27-All the cabinet
ministers have been instructed to
hold themselves in readiness in case
cabinet council should be necesSa-
ry. This led to the report that the
council had been summoned and nat
urally increased the popular excite
ment. as it was interpreted as mean-
ing that the government was about
to take the final step. No cabinet
meeting has been definitely fixed but
one will undoubtedly be held before
action
London, Oct. 27.-0:42 p. m.)-Pp
to this hour there is no sign of an
end to the deadlock over the ques-
ton of the punishment of the Rus
sian officers responsible for the North
sea tragedy, so the Associated Press
learns. AS regards the British dem
ands for punishment being an in
fringement of Russia's sovereignty
and rights, Ambassador Rencken1orff
in his interview with Lord Lansdowne
today maintained that such punish
ment must be made on spontaneous
initiative of the Emperor's govern
ment, and that a demand from foT
eign power that Russia shall PUNISH
her officers cannot be entertained.
There is no Indication of Lord Lans-
downe withdrawing his demands and
though the dispute has not yet reach
ed the ultimatum stage it is likely TO
do so if the day passes without some
recognition Of the punishment priuci-
pie by the Emperor's government.
Ambassador Benckendorff paid ano
ther visit to Lord Lansdowne abo't
three o'clock this afternoon, presTma
bly, to discuss Rojetsvensky's report.
This report caused considerable be.
wilderment here. While the statement
that two torpedo boats were among
the fishing feet is generally secuted,
there is beginning to be evidence OF
some disposition to believe in the
possibility that there is another side
to the fishermen's story
London, (4:41 p. m.) Oct. 81
While no time limit for the receipt
of the Russian reply has been fixed
it is generally understood today th"t
the route of the Russian feet past
Gibraltar will be barred by the chan
mel squadron commanded by Vice Al
miral Lord Charles Beresford. AT
three O'Clock this afternoon Lord
Lansdowne expressed the belief that
a peaceful settlement would be ar
rived at.
A very definite impression prevails
in diplomatic circles that France has
given both Russia and Great Britain
to explicitly understand that she viii.
not be involved should the disputants
resort to hostilities.

great underground railroad, the lat
est step in the movement for rapiI
transit, was formally opened and rea-
dy for business today. The ceremonies
tunnel which were set to take place
this afternoon were very simple.
The subway is the consummation
of years of study of the transporta-
ton problem on Manhattan Island
and marks the completion of the first
stage of what will be the most conl-
in the world Considering the pecu-
liar difficulties faced by it's builders,
the subway stands unique as a fear
of engineering and construction. In
the shape of an irregular ''Y' with
the stem resting at the City Hall, the
tunnel runs north to 42nd street
Broadway and out that thoroughfare
to 103rd street. This portion of the
tunnel is a four track system, two
tracks for local and two for express
train service. At 10Srd street two
tracks diverge in a generally north
eastern direction. cross under a cor
ner Of Central Park and on to the
Harlem river. under which it passes
by means of a tunnel made famous
by the engineering skill called into
play to complete it. After passing
under the river it continues to Third
avenue and 145th street, where the
tunnel ends and the line is continued
upon a viaduct to Bronx Park. The
west side branch of two tracks con.
tinues north from 103rd street to
Hillside avenue and nth avenue,
where it emerges from a tunnel and
is continued upon a viaduct to it's
terminus at Spuyten Duyvil. Nine
miles of this total Of about fourteen
were ready for traffic today, but it
is expected that the east side divis-
ion and the remainder of the west
side line will be ready in about three
months. The recently authorized line
from City Hall under the East River
to Prospect Park, Brooklyn, will not
be completed for about three years.
With that and other lines under con-
struction and authorized, Greater
