RUSSIANS EXPECT LAND INVESTMENT
OF PORT ARTHUR FROM PIGEON BAY

Yin-Kow: Refugees who arrived here
Sunday report that the Russians mo-
mentarily fear a land Investment of
Port Arthur from Pigeon Bay.
The first reports by eye-witnesses Of
the engagement at Port Arthur in the
early morning Of Wednesday last have
ben received here. They say that one
Japanese coal hulk was sunk and one
beached near the Retvizan, and that
nineteen Japanese in civilians clothes
reached shore and were made prison
ers.
The Askold and Bayan approached
the japanese feet and then retired,
being unable to entice the enemy to
engage them. From a long range two
shells struck the city.
The Retvizan is serviceable as an
auxiliary fort, but the foreign engineer
has abandoned the hope of raising her,
as the patching on the forty-foot cleft
made by Japanese torpedo has given
way and stopped progress, and the
Russian engineers have inteTfered
with the original plans Of raising the
vessel.
The Czarevltch is kept afioat by con-
slant pumping. The Novik has been
repaired and the Pallada has been
locked
Repeated attacks by the Japanese
during the past week resulted in the
constant shifting of troops, including
the native contingent recruited from
warships, to all parts of the defenses,
and also to the hinterland.

CONFEDERATEs GUILTY
Jury conviets Them Of Conspiracy
to Defraud Government.

Washington: Guilty as indicted
was the verdict announced by the
foreman of the jury in the Post-Offce
conspiracy trial shortly after o'clock
Friday night, stating at the same time
that this was the verdict as to all the
four defendants
August w. Machen, late general
superintendent of the Rural Free De
livery Division; George f. Lorenz of
Toledo, o., Samuel A. Croft and Diller
B. Croft of Washington.
The jury had been out nine hours.
Justice Pritchard had gone home
there to await any summons from the
jury, and when, at 1925 O'Clock, the
jury announced to the Deputy Marshal
outside of the jury room that a YER
dict had been reached, the Justice was
sent for.
In the dimly lighted room sat the
four defendants, who, after the case
was given to the jury, had been placed
in the custody of a United States
Marshal and confined to the limits of
the City Hall. Each wore an anxious
look and a death-like silence fell on
the small crowd which had been per-
mitted to enter the room as the clerk
inquired of the foreman If a verdict
had been reached.
The jury rose as to one man, and
as the words guilty as indicted" fell
from the foreman's lips, the defend
ants and their counsel seemed APP
palled.
There was general establishment
that the jury had included in the con-
viction Samuel A. Croft, a Washing
ton policeman and inventor of the
Croft fastener as to whom Holmes
Conrad, special counsel for the Gov
eminent, Thursday informed the jury
he did not expect a conviction, and
that personally he did not believe in
his guilt
Immediately after the verdict was
rendered, Charles A. Douglas. in be-
half of all four defendants, filed mo-
tions for a new trial, for an arrest Of
judgment and for an appeal for the
purpose of having the defendants adj
mitted to bail. Bail was then fixed
at $4,000 each, the bond of Lo-
REM and the two Groffs being in
creased from $4,000.
Next to Samuel A. Croft, the most
surprised man was Machen. who said
he was thunderstruck at the verdict
Bail was furnished Friday night for
each of the four convicted men, the
sureties being the same as on the
bonds for the amounts fixed prior to
the conviction, and the defendants
were released.

PING YANG PANIC STRICKEN;
TO DEPOSE K0REA'S RULER
Forty Thousand More Japanese Have
Landed at Chemulpo.

Seoul: There is a panic at Ping
Yang. The foreign stores are closed out
and the natives are fleeing. A steam
ship sent to remove the women and
children was obliged to return on ac-
count of the ice. The male mission
aries express determination to remain
at their posts of duty.
All in the Russian colony here have
taken refuge on the premises of the
legation, and at Chemulpo in the ware
houses Of the Russian company of east
China, which are protected by marines
The Japanese have assumed the tone
and manner Of masters of Korea. 1t
Is said that the Japanese minister has
gone so far as to announce that the
emperor of Korea will be deposed and
the country annexed to the empire of
the Rising Sun.

JAPANESE MARCHING
THROUGH MANcHURlA
If Successful, Will Completely Di-
vide Russian Forces.

According to apparently reliable re-
ports received Thursday, the Japanese
have landed a large military force in
Possiet Harbor In Eastern Manchuria,
only ninety miles from Vladivostolk,
and are pushing westward toward
Kirin, which is only eighty miles from
the Harbin-Port Arthur Railroad. IL
theJapanese are in force and can make
their way over the rough country,
which probobly is unguarded, they will
completely divide the Russian forces,
the main bodies of which are at Har-
bin, Vladivostok, Port Arthur and the
Korean frontier. If Viceroy AlexieR
should remain too long at Mukden,
where, it is said, he returned tenn
poTarily after establishing headquar-
tiers at Hardin, he may find his sole
means Of communication with st. Pet
ersburg cut off. The Russian govern
ment Offices at Vladivostol, It is re-
ported, have been moved to Khaboro-
vsk, about 300 miles north.
Meantime, the Japanese feet has
made another attack on Port Arthur
and the suggestion is made that the
operations there have been largely for
the purpose of diverting attention from
the more serious movements else
where. An official report received at
London asserts that not one Japanese
torpedo boat was even injured in the
attack of Wednesday morning.
1t is limited from st. Petersburg
that the czar would be willing to con-
slider an offer of mediation il he could
allay the sting of recent defeats by
just one decisive victory.
Russian irritation over the alleged
actions Of the commander of an Ameri-
can gunboat at Chemulpo has resulted
in a serious loss of American trade
with that country and may lead to
further and more serious complica-
tions.

STATE SCORES
ON HARRINGTON
Defendants Counsel Admits Testi-
mony Was Damaging.

Clayton, Mo-; The prosecution had a
telling day in the harrington trial
Saturday. The State brought out some
of its strongest evidence in the chain
of circumstances relied upon to fasten
the murder of Mccain upon Barring
ton. The defendants counsel admitted
that the testimony was extremely dam
aging. One of his attorneys so informed
Lord" Barrington's friend and adviser,
Rev. H. G. St. Clair, rector Of Trinity
Episcopal church, while the defendant
was absent from the courtroom.
This was after the principal witness,
Chas. Morrison, the negro servant at
the Leland hotel, had given the jury
his detailed account of the return of
harrington to the hotel on the morning
of June 10, with his clothing smeared
with blood, and Of the prisoners con-
duct and the conflicting stories which
he told to explain McCann's disappear.
ance on the night before.
Morrison was followed by his wife,
Onie Morrison, who corroborated her
husband on all important points, and
added materially to the strength of the
evidence by testifying that Mrs. Mccain
was afraid to stay in the house alone
with harrington after McCann's disap-
pearance, and Of how, several days be-
fore the murder, she heard Darlington
ask Mccain to go with him to St
Charles to see some rich friends, which
Mccain promised to do.
Through all the telling accusations
against him harrington remained calm
and apparently unmoved. If he dis
played any emotion whatever, it was
when he smiled, and the hidden mean.
ing in his smile not even the closest
observer could detect.
