HEAVY RAIN ON
SUNDAY NIGHT

The long dry spell was broken Satur-
day night by rain and thunder storm.
Clouds rolled up from the west Satur-
day afternoon, and toward evening rain
began to fall. The showers continued
through the night and up to noon OF
Sunday. In all, .3S of and inch OF rain
fell, according to the government rain
guage in charge of D. N. Byerlee, the To-
cal weather observer
A heavy thunder storm accompanied
the rain. The thunder continued for
most of the night, with now and then
rejecting flashes of tightening.
The storm cleared the atmosphere OF
the heavy pail of smoke that hung over
the valley for two weeks or more, and
while the rain wasn't so very heavy it
appears to have been sufficient to quelch
the fires that had been burning in the
forests on both sides of the Columbia.
The absence of dust since the rain is
greatly appreciated, and drives through
the country appear the fashion these
evenings.
Apple men say the continued warm
weather has kept the early apples from
taking on much color, but they are
pleased with the rain, as it freshened up
the trees and insures cool nights for the
colOring of the fruit.

VARIAG'S CREW FIND
REFUGE ON FOREIGN
WARSHIPS IN HARB0R

NEW YORK, Feb. IL. =
About 200 OF the Variag's crew
lost their lives when the vessel
was destroyed on Monday by the
Japanese off Chenulpo, according
to a World dispatch from Toxic.
The crew of the Russian cruiser
numbered SO. Many lost their
lives under fire, but large num-
Der drowned in attempting to es-
cape. The men Loyalty aided their
officers, and it is said not one of
the latter was drowned in getting
ashore.
Many swan not to the shore,
but to the foreign men-of-war
i'll the harbor, which promptly
lowered boats and went to their
rescue. Besides the French cruiser
Pascal, the Italian cruiser Elba
and the British cruiser Talbot
aided the refugees. One hundred
and fifty, many of them wound
ed, reached the Talbot.
Sir Cyprian Bridge, the British
admiral in command of the STA
ton, has ordered that the wound
ed Russians shall not be handed
over to the japanese unless they
SO desire.
The Japanese did not lose a
man. None of the fleet, which is
known to have been in over
whelming force, was damaged.
The engagement was watched
by four foreign warships, includ-
ing the United States gunboat
Vicksburg. They all saluted the

HANS ACTION DEFENDED.
The extracts which have been pub
lished in Paris and ST Petersburg are
not strictly accurate. America has
suggested that hostilities be limited
as much as possible The ault-finding
comments that Secretary Hay has not
described the peace zone are absurd.
Mr Hay has not said anything in his
note about Manchuria or MongoL. or
Kore or South America or the man in

nations concerned in the welfare Of
China that Il might be wise for them

Government had any such thought or
that the suggestion binds the United
States or any other nation TO such re-
sponsibflities. Joint action is not con-
templated any more than suggested.
Concurrent action taken practically
simultaneously is a proper term. 1t is
being urged merely for the moral effect
upon China and the world.

WAR EXPERTS BELIEVE
ONLY TWO CONFLICTS
HAVE TAKEN PLACE

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-Careful study
and Europe from the East, including
press dispatches and communications
through official channels, would indi-
cate but two actual conflicts of any
moment have so far occurred. These
are the Japanese naval attack on Port
Arthur Monday night and Tuesday
morning and the affair at Chemulpo on
Monday and Tuesday.
Various reports of other enga agements
are considered but echoes of these two
fights. News travels slowly in North
China. Cable and telegraph facilities
are limited, and when reports at Port
Arthur and Chemulpo of affairs reach
various points they are promptly cabled
by resident correspondents, resulting
in a natural confusion of dates. The
report cabled by the Tientsin cOrre-
spondent at London stating that the
Russian fleet had bOmbarded HakO-
date is entirely discredited. Naval men
in this city say that so far as known
the only Russian vessels in position to
move are at VladivostOk, and that II
cannot for a moment be thought that
they would be withdrawn from the de-
Tense of an important depot, even If
they are free of ice and not blocked by
the japanese squadron as has been re-
ported In view Of the fact that there
is no cable communication between
Japan and China. except by the way OF
Shanghai, it is improbable that such
important news would be first heard in
an inland town such as Tientsin.

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-The japanese
troops landed at Gensan are intended
to operate with troops that have now
been successfully landed at Pingyang
on the opposite side of the Korean
peninsula, says dispatch from Kobe
Japan.
These two forces constitute Japan's
second line of defense against the
Russians who are marching over the
Yalu into Korea. A first line of de-

likely that this army viii reach its

The second. line may fail to hold the
invaders, in which case il is expected
that a land battle would take place not
far from Seoul. In any case the Japan
ese preparations are made with a view
to closing in on any body OF Russian
troops that succeeds in forcing its way

dispatch from the Government 1T

STORY OF ATTEMPT
OF JAPAN TO LAND
TROOPS Is DOUBTED

LONDON, Feb. I2.-There IS
a marked lull in war news. No
confirmation has been received of
the reported attempts of the Jap
anese to land troops near Port Al
thur. Captain Tamari, a japanese
naval attache, discredits the ru-
morS. He said:
"The Japanese will never at
tempt to take Port Arthur from
the sea alone" f"

vance squadron was, for the most
part, outside of Port Arthur. OF

the battleship Poltava, the pro-
tected cruiser AskOld and two
others appeared to have been
struck by our torpedoes.
''On February Q, at 1oon, cur
fleet advanced into the ofhng Of
Port Arthur Bay and attacked the
rest of the cnemy's fleet for about
forty minutes. The result of the
attack is not vet known, but CON
siderable damage was inflicted
on the enemy, and 1 believe that
they were greatly demoralized.
They stopped fighting about
O'Clock and appeared to retreat
into the harbor. In this action
the damage to Our fleet was very
slight, and Our fighting strength
is not in the least decreased.
JAPANESE ARE KILLED.
"The number of killed and
wounded was ffty-eight. OF these
four were killed and fifty-four
wounded. A report of the en-
gagement of the detached squad
ron at Chemulpo has probably
been sent YOU directly by Admiral
Uriu. Our advance squadron bore
the bTunt of the enemy's fire,
and after the attack for the most
part rejoined the main feet. All
the imperial Princes on board the
ships are unframed. The conduct
of all our officers during action
was cool, not unlike that dur
ing ordinary maneuvers. Since
the battle their spirits have been
high, but their conduct was very
calm. This morning, owing to
heavy south wind, there has
been no communication between
ships, and no detailed report has
been received from each vessel,
so l report merely the above facts.

PARIS. Feb. I3.-The Berlin
correspondent of the Gaulois says
he learns from a reliable source
that Emperor William, prohting
by his influence over the Sultan,
has obtained from the Turkish
ruler formal promise to take no
steps which would create COM
plications IN the Balkans so long
as the war in the Far East lasts.
1t is alleged. the correspondent
continues, that Bulgaria has given
a similar pledge to St. Peters
burg.

clares that the Russian Govern
ment is negotiating with several
banks which are to undertake to
float a new Russian loan in
France, to be issued at o2 and TO

would have already been accom-
plished but for the danger of
causing depreciation in the value

that several Russian sailors from the

aboard the Elbe. where they were
