An OnlinOiIS Silence.
(By the Associated Press.)

st. Petersburg. Aug. 4.--3:18 a. m.
There has been com Dlete and Omni-
Gus silence regarding events at the
front since the receipt of General
kuropatkin's brief dispatch of August
2. Even this meagre official informa-
ton was anticipated by earlier ad-
vices tD the Associated Press.
There are neither official nor press
dispatches late tonight to indicate the
progress of fighting around Lao
Yang where it is felt that a most seri-
Gus situation must exist.
1t is thought possible that there
may be 2. temporary lull.
The terrible heat alone would be
enough to demoralize the armies, and
it would not be surprising if. coupled
with the several days severe fighting
it forced both sides to halt and re-
cuperate.
There is the gravest anxiety here to
learn whether General Kuropatkin is
seriously giving battle or is determined
ly screening the withdrawal of his
main force. There is a persistent
story ahOat that the Russian army
has been moving north for some days
but this cannot be confirmed

night regarding the reported sinking

Japanese Coils Tighten
Around Port Arthur.
HAICHENG ISOCCUPIED
The Japanese Also Move Into New
Chwang---There is Rumor of a
Battle North of HaiCheng---
The Japanese Advance
Continued.
(By the Associated Press.)

Toxic. Aug. 40 a. m.-The Jap
anese are hourly awaiting tidings of a
victory AT Port Arthur with more in
terest and eagerness than heretofore
displayed during the war.
From a political strategical and
sentimental standpoint the position of
the Russian force and naval base is
considered of paramount importance
by the Japanese. 1t is known that the
japanese moose about the besieged
city is gradually tightening. The Jap
anese guns are pouring fire into the
diminishing circle, and It is felt here
that the critical hour is fast approach
ing. But the public here is ignorant
of the hour when the final assault will
be made, and also Of the details of
the work already done around Port
Arthur. 1t is believed tnat the fire
from the Japanese batteries Will CON-
pei the Russian fleet to leave the har
Dor and accept battle from Admiral
Togo.
1t is becoming proverbial that the
apaneso infantry will go anywhere,
and will refuse TO retire no matter
how great their losses may be. 1t is
believed that PoJrt Arthur could have
been taken before this time with
heavy sacrifice of life. but it is evil
dent that the military leaders are
working to effect the reduction and
capture the fortress with the mini
mum loss of life. There will be no
charges of great masses of infantry
until the artillery has finished the task
of silencing the Russian guns.
The stor,t is current to the effect
that the Emperor has expressed the
wish that the capture shall be effect
ed with thu smallest possible Sacri-
flee Of life. hence the caro- and pre-
cision taken by the Japanese in ap-
preaching Tia Russian defcnses ana
thcthe extensive uso of the larger On
gines of the war with which to clear
the way.

Chefoo. Aug. 3.-6 y. m.-The

Wilkesboro, n. c., Aug. 4.-There
assembled in the large and handsome
new court house of this place today the
largest and most enthusiastic Demo-
cratic convention ever held in the
Eighth Congressional District. Every
thing about the convention, the
speeches and the look upon the faces
of the delegates, indicates a Demo-
cratic landslide in November.
Promptly at o'clock the conven-
ton was called to order by Col. John
5. Henderson, chairman of the Demo-
cratic Congressional committee, and
after a few words about the hopeful
signs of the times, he named as tenn
pOrary chairman, Mr.. e. +. Lowell of
Watauga county, and requested all ed
itorS of the Democratic press to act
as secretaries. On motion of Hon. w.
w. Barber the committee on creden-
tials was dispensed with and the roll
OF counties was called to name COM
nittee on permanent organization. In
accordance with the report of said
committee, Mr.. Lowell was made per-
manent chairman, and Messrs r. A.
Deal and A. 5. Carson were made sec
retarieS and all Democratic editors
were requested to act as assistant sec
retarieS. On motion of Hon. w. w.
Barber the appointing of the executive
committee was postponed till after the
nominations.

Flora correspondence in the Oberon
Reporter: Flora, Nov. 8, 1904.-At
about 7:45 this morning Flora was
aroused by dull report. Wondering
what it was, several citizens ran into
the street to see Miss Maria Kolsrud
run into the street, clothing on fire
and blazing two feet above her head.
Dense columns of smoke were issu-
ing from different parts Of the store
and dwelling apartments and the cry
Of fire" was raised.
Soon a crowd was collected and the
fire, which had done no damage, was
extinguished.
But the terrible work of the explo-
sion was yet to be seen.
After little of the excitement was
over it was seen that Mr.. and Mrs.
Kolsrud were very badly burned and
medical aid was at once sent for. but
it was impossible to get aid until
noon the citizens relieving the suffer
ers as much as possible.
Every one was asking the cause OF
the fire but the Kolsrud family were
unable to answer, all they knew was
of the report and the atmosphere filled
with blaze.
Investigation showed that the
| soldering pot had exploded and then
Mr.. Kolsrud remembered that it had
been on the back of the heating stove
in the room, Ito keep from the
small children) and when he started
the fire in the morning forgot to take
it off. The conclusion broke out two
panes of glass, knocked things from
the shelves in the hardware store and
also at Waller & Ropes and threw
Gustave from his bed in the room
above.
Mr.. and Miss Kolsrud are burned
very badly but are resting very well
at the present writing.
