JAPS AGAIN MARGIN
On to Mukden Is Now Cry of Victo-
rious Troops of the Mikado,
After Temporary Rest.

General Kuropatkin telegraphs ST
Petersburg, under date of September
16 (Friday), that the reconnoisances
has established the fact that the Jap
anese are massing near Yentain and
Yentziapulze. Bodies of Japanese are
also moving in the Lao River valley.
The Associated Press dispatch from
Rfukden announcing that according 10
information from Chinese sources, the
japanese are leaving a garrison at
Loa-Yang and their main forces are
moving out on the Russian TANKS, IS
partially confirmed by the dispatch
from General Kuropatkin reporting
that the japanese are massing on the
Russian tanks, that large force is
concentrating at Bentzaputze 20 miles
southeast Of Mukden, and that another
force, whose strength has not been es-
tablished, is moving up the Lao river
valley.
The greater part of Field Marshal
Oyama's army, however, is still near
Yentai. encamped along the heights
between the mines and the railroad

pate immediate advance, the prelimi-
nary dispositions of the Japanese
forces are taken to indicate that the
japanese intend, When they advance,
to strike from the eastward. They
seem to be avoiding the territory west
OF the Lao river, possibly because it
is fat and would give the Russians
the advantage of their superiority in
cavalry. Chinese residents fleeing to
Mukden complain that the Japanese
are pillaging Liao-Yang.
Statements THAT the japanese army
is concentrating upon the tanks OF
the Russian forces in the vicinity Of
Mukden are met at the Russian war
Office with expressions Of incredulity.
It is the opinion at st. Petersburg
that much longer time must elapse
before Oyama can put his army which
was so sorely tried in the battle or
Loao- Yang, in condition to undertakes
a forward movement.
A special from Mukden says: Ear
ly Friday morning 1900 wounded mem
belonging to Major General Mitschen-
sky's Cossack division were brought
into Mukden. Particulars of the
skirmish are not available. 1t is not
clear whether it was a simply outpost
affair or the beginning of the real
japanese advance on Mukden. 1t -
reported that the japanese are adj
waning on Mukden from the east. a
strong force of Russians is ready to
meet them.

had been freely circulated in the city.
The report, which is a very long one'
enters at considerable detail into the
various phases of the battle or Lao

claration of the Associated Press at
thu time that General Orloff's failure
to hold the vital position at the Yen

breaking down of the whole of Gen-
eral Kuropatl1in's plan OF battle aAd
turned potential victory into de-

treat was carried out in the face OF
the terrible condition of the country
and the determined pressure of the
Japanese armies does much to restore
General Kuropatkins prestige in mill
tary circles.

B. Parker left Esopus Wednesday
night arrived Thursday morning and
anchored off Thirty.fifth street. Judge
Parker remained on board until after

Donald and Judge Parker's secretary,
Arthur McCausland, the party entered

ferred with more than a score of
prominent party leaders, who called
on him at his apartments at the no.
tel.
Important matters relating to the
campaign which may reorganize the
methods now in operation, the letters
of acceptance Of the candidates for

vate entrance, and no persons without

man of the speakers bureau; Repre-
sentatives John Sharp Williams, of
Mississippi; August Belmont, Perry
Belmont and State Senator McCarren,
or Brooklyn.
Senator German remained with
Judge Parker for three hours, and this
is taken as an indication that the sen
ator has become active in the cam
paign at least in an advisory capacity.
John Sharp Williams discussed cam
paign oratory with Judge Parker. He
has been assigned already for speeches
at Louisville and Detroit, and it was
decided that he will be heard in New

of Judge Parker.

O'Clock. He was. assisting in clearing
driftwood and debris from the mill
pond and while standing on the sluice
way the planks which bridged it
we're hit by large piece of timber.
He lost his balance and fell into the
.sluice and was carried down the raging
current Of the river. He attempted in
vain to save himself by swimming to
the shore, but the swiftness and cold
ness Of the water soon Overcame his
strength. Starch was made for the
body during the night, but without re-
suit. Yesterday morning at ten o'clock
Chief Of Police Jack Garrihee, Pat
Garrihee and Mike Mason made a
thorough search of the river near the
mill and located the body about fifteen
rods from the place where the accident
took place. They brought it to shore
ia a rowboat and the inquest was
held by Justice Cooper.

Arthur Ramsey was born in Chelten-
ham, Worcestershire, England, Jan.
10, 1871. He was the second son OF Sir
Alexander Ramsey, baronet. He was
educated at Cheltenham college and
afterwards at st. Andrews college,
Edinburgh. He studied civil engineer
ing while in Scotland. In 1893 he came
to this country and was employed for
some time in the Office of Edward &
OrbisOn in Appleton. Later he went
to Tacoma and thence to Seattle. He
returned to Wisconsin after the death
Of George E. Hoskinson and took
charge of the Pioneer Pulp mill. He
was married in 1899 to Miss Marion
HOsklnson by whom he is survived.
Mr.. Ramsey had not made very many
acquaintances here on account of the
short time he had been in the city.
Those who knew him found him to be
pleasant and unaSSuming, gentle
man in every respect, whom one felt
desirous Of securing as friend.
The funeral will take place from the
st. Johns Episcopal church at 10 a. m.

CREATE MORE
HOTEL ROOM
Nate Anderson Will Erect
Modern Hotel Building on
West Side.
HOTEL DIXON ALSO
WILL BE ENLARGED
Striking Illustration Of City's
Splendid Growth and
Prosperity.

One of the best indicators of the
push and business enterprise OF any
city is its p0stofiee receipts and hotel
accommodation. It has been decided
by Nate Anderson that there is still
room for another good hotel in Grand
Rapids. Mr.. Anderson has already
broken ground for his new hotel,
which will be located at the north
west corner of Maple and Cranberry
streets extending ca feet on the formt I
and "a feet on the latter streets. The
structure will be Of solid brick, three
stories high and a basement under the
entire building. A steam heating
plant will be INSTALLED and other
modern Improvements. 1t will con.
tain twenty-six sleeping rooms and
will be run as s1.OO per day hotel.
When we add the push and extended
experience OF Mr.. Anderson to the
splendid future prospects of Grand
Rapids, there can be but one conclu-
sion which is expressed in the one
word, success.
But few cities in the northern half
of Wisconsin are as well provided with
first class hotels as is Grand Rapids,
but the increasing demand by the
travelling public has compelled the
Dixon Hotel to still farther enlarge
their new building. The foundation
for the L shaped addition will soon be
laid starting at the southeast corner,
running east 48 feet and extending
north 40 feet. having court of II
feet between the two buildings for
light and ventilation. The new
structure will be OF solid brick three
stories in height and contain twenty
six large first class sleeping rooms.
Charlie Dixon and A. w. Tuttle are a
striking example of the right men in
the right place, which always means
success.

ARMY OF COMMERCIAL
TRAVELLERS COMING HERE

Have you ever stopped to think how
much Grand Rapids is indebted to the
man with the grip. The number of
commercial travellers that visit this
city each year is somewhat surprising.
The register at two of our largest
hotels will often show forty each for
six days in week, and at the more
busy seasons Of the year fifty to
sixty travelling men will often visit
each hotel. 1t is a safe estimate to
state that over $1,000 visits are paid
our city each year from commercial
trayelers. It is not SO much the
as the quality of these men
that exert an influence wherever they

The modern travelling man is q

we live. He represents the most

ever known. He is the circuit rider

The nations Of the earth are not 81

gaining lost supremacy in trade. The
