NEAR ARTHUR.
Japanese Advance Within Three
Miles of For ress.
Fort on Main Line of Defenses
Captured July 6.
STILL LOOK FOR HELP.
Force Thinks Army
Is Marching to Its Relief.
Preparation for an Attack on a
Vital Point.

Chefoo, July S.-A trustworthy
Chinaman who arrived here today
from point on the east coast of the
Kwan Tung peninsula near Port Ar
thur, brings the information that on
the 5th of July one division of the
japanese army reached the northeast
slope of the Taku Shan mountain, the
summit of which is less than three
miles from Port Arthur. This division
parted from another division of the
army on the highway north of Port
Arthur after which it mades its way
through mountainous country. The
other division continued along the
main road toward the marine camp,
to reach which it will have to pass
over plain, but attacked by this di-
vision in conjunction with that on
Taku Shan mountain the marine camp
will not be tenable-
Fort No. 16, which is on the main
line of defenses surrounding Port
Arthur, was taken by the japanese
on July s.
Continuing the Chinaman declares
that Russians in Port Arthur say that
during the last week three regiments
just north of Port Arthur. A Rus
siaE regiment which was out recon-
noitering was driven back by the
three Japanese regiments, which were
of cossacks and wiped out.
The Russians say also that in an
other engagement between outposts
eight Japanese were killed and ~
taken prisoners.
These reports lack confirmation.
The Russian troops at Port Arthur
still believe that an army is marching
south to relieve them.
1t has been learned here that only
one division of the japanese under
General Oku occupied Kia Ping. An
other division of this army is march
ing along the Foo Chow road which
turns to the northwest at Kaiping and
continues to Yfnkow, the port of New
Chwang. There probably will be an
encounter between this latter division
and Russian forces at Erhtamho. This
report was received from New
Chwang.
A third division of General Oku's
army is proceeding along the east side
of the railroad tracks and is acting in
cooperation with the division which
is on the railroad.
The name Takushan used in this
dispatch to designate a mountain near
Port Arthur means Lonely noun
tain" and this meaning accounts for
the frequent use of the word.

Sharp Debate.
The taking up the financial plank by
the subcommittee percipitated a sharp
debate in which most of the members
participated. Senator Duboise opposed
it most vigorously He admitted that
the increase in the production of gold
had had the effect of creating a Suffi-
cient supply of money for the present
needs but said the output of the prec-
ious metals is so irregular as to render
it most uncertain, and argued that
while the present supply may be Sufff-
cient to meet the wants of the world,
it can not be relied upon permanently.
He was replied to by Senators Daniel
and Hill. who commended that the plank
presented recognizes the qualitative
theory Of money advocated by the Dem
ocrat party and from this point drew
the conclusion that the declaration is
not inconsistent with former pronounce
ments on the subject.
Much interest was manifested in the
polygamy question upon which Senator
Duboise presented a plank, and while
it was discussed at some length it was
in the end accepted without change.
The antitrust, tariff and other import
ant planks were earnestly debated and
literally amended, but as perfected
they were generally satisfactory to all
the members of the subcommittee.
Immediately after the full committee
convened at o'clock Senator Daniel.
as chairman of the subcommittee, read
the subcommittee draft of a platform
which was listened to with interest but
in silence.
As soon as the reading was completed
the committee entered on considera-
ton of the tariff plank Senator Tillman,
Mr. Bryan and others suggesting
changes.
The committee plank was opposed by
Senator Hill in a speech of 10 or 20
minutes. Senator Tillman replied ,urg-
ing the incorporation of the plank in
the platform. He was vigorously APP
plauded. The plank was first offered
by Williams of Mississippi and then
Bryan then offered a plank
on the same subject upon which oc-
Cured the discussion. 1t was adopted.
Mr.. Bryan made a vigorous plea for
an income tax plank, asserting that 1t
was true Democratic doctrine.
The debate on the income tax pro-
nosition continued well into the
morning. Senator Hill took the
position that if a plank Of that charac-
ter should be inserted New York would
be absolutely lost to the Democracy and
several southern members said that IL
such was Mr. Hills opinion they were
willing to omit the provision.

TRINKLE CANNOT DELAY.
Must Answer the Charges Which
Have Been Filed.

II. o. TrinlSle, county attorney of Linn
county. against whom suit to Gust from
office is pending in the supreme court,
can not avoid having his case come to
trial in spite OF alleged dilatory motions.
Trinkle is accused of malfeasance in Of
fee in connection with the enforcemenr
of the prohibitory law. The charge
against MIN IS that ne dismissed liquor
to him. A suit to GUST him from Office
was brought in the supreme court and
he has been filing various motions. His
opponents believe these motions were
simply for the purpose of delaying the
action. If he could have thrown the pro-
ceedings over until late in the fall his
term might have expired in January be-
fore a decision could be reached and he
would have been out of office anyway
before he could have been ousted
Thursday afternoon the supreme court
passed on a motion by Mr.. Trfnkle to re-
quire the petition against him made more
definite and certain. The court not only
dverruled the motion, but also ordered
that Trinkle must file his answer by Au-
gust 1.

A NIGHT IN CHINATOWN.
Editor Baltimore Methodist.

Editor Baltimore Methodist.
Time would fail us to tell of the STANCE sights,
sounds and SMELLS and weird experiences of the
night hours we spent in visiting the homes
and haunts of the Chinese quarter in San
Francisco. Mr.. and Mrs. B., whose guests
we were, accompanied us and were superb
guides. Thirty-fiye thousand Chinese live
there, much as they live in their native coun-
try. They live by themselves and within GER
tain limits they are q law unto themselves.
While their shops were open and business was
in progress, yet their pleasures and designations
were most in evidence. The gambling rooms
abound, for gambling is the master passion, the
sin and curse of that people. As the necessary
adjunct to the gambling den is the ubiquitous
pawnshop with its counter and possessions
guarded by iron gratings like prison cell. OF
course we visited the joss house and saw the
strange paraphernalia of idol worship, and
noted the place that ancestor worship holds in
the deyotions of the Chinese; and went into
their restaurants, got look into splendidly-
enninned BANQUET room with rich Chinese gen.
flemen at the tables eating with chop sticks;
succeeded in getting into an opium den and
watched the opium smoker IN the seventh
heaven of the opium elysium and last OF all,
visited a Chinese theatre. Yes, dear Methodist
reader we went to theatre. We did not
mean to 90; indeed, we hardly knew where we
were going until our guides led Us BY various
stairways and passages, through the green
room. and onto the stage near the actors:
When we found where we were we thought OF
paragraph 24S and might have retreated but
again we reflected that we were there not Tor
the pleasure of the play, for it was all in an
unknown tongue, but to study q people and 10
learn their lives. We sat there in full view OF
the audience for long time watching the
strange scene. The first floor was crowded
with men who sat with their bats on and wore
countenances as solemnly unperturbed as
though they were at funeral. The one gal
lery was occupied by women equally sedate.
The stage had no scenery. The musicians IN
fnll SIGHT kept up an incessant barbaric sort OF
music on gongs, cymbals, fife and violin:
The property man" walked about the stage
during the play furnishing anything needed in
the impersonations The actors, clad in rich
Chinese costumes, recited their alternating
parts in queer high-keye1 rhythmic voices
keeping time with the music. What the play
was we never knew; but the strange sight and
the weird sounds of the Chinese theatre, ana
the scenes of that night in Chinatown linger
with us like vision Of some other world.
