Significant London View.
London, NOV. 1S.-The fact that the
Russian torpedoboat destroyer Ras-
toropny (Which arrived at Chefoo
Wednesday, left Port Arthur much
later than the date of General Stoes-
sells published report, which relates
to nothing later than November 3, is
regarded as significant. Apparently,
however, Toxic has not yet received as
late news as is contained in the report
of American Consul General Fowler at
Chefoo, transmitted to the state de-
partment at washington Wednesday.
Special dispatches from Tientsin re-
port a heavy bombardment of Port
Arthur as late as November II and
nightly sorties by small parties OF
Russians, who lose heavily by bayonet
fights. These reports give no reliable
details, but concur in the statements
that the guns are wearing out and the
Russian ammunition is becoming
scarce. The Telegraph's Tientsin cor
respondent says he has received a re-
port that the Japanese have suddenly
advanced in the direction of Mukden.
from which place they are now only
II miles apart.

LABOR FIGHT

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-If the determin-
alton of the leaders in the strike of
the furniture teamsters is carried out,
one of the bitterest fights that has tax
en- place in recent years in the local
labor world is predicted. The strike
opened yesterday with rioting and
fighting in the streets and more trou-
BILE is predicted for today, as the fur
niture dealers say they will continue
deliveries with non-union drivers and
vt is expected the wagons will be at
tackled as soon as they appear in the
streets, even though guarded by po-
lice. The point at issue is the refus-
al of employers to sign contracts with
the drivers. There is no question of
wages involved.

MYSTERY IN DEATH.
La Crosse Lad Surrenders, Telling
How He Killed Man.

La Crosse, Nov. 18.-The police
have mystery in the death of light
complexioned stranger, with brown
hair and a red mustache. His body
was taken from the marsh between
the north and south side at midnight
Wednesday night.
George Tuchek walked into the po
lice station and gave himself up, say
ing he had killed man by holding his
head under water. His story is that
he met the stranger, who was over
feet tall, and they started up railroad
track to the north side together.
Tuchek says the stranger attacked
him, demanding his money, and al
though Tuchek is a small man, he
says he knocked the stranger down
the embankment. This operation was
repeated twice, when Tuchek says
they engaged in deadly combat and
he was compelled to hold the
strangers head under water until he
was drowned, to save his own life.
The police cannot identify the
stranger, as no one knows him, and
there was nothing in his pockets to ar
ford clue.

New York, NV. 1S.-The Worl6
says former Governor Black has been
rendered an offer of the attorney gen.
eralship in President Roosevelt's next

senatorship, as he could then retain
his law practice, which it is said nets
him nearly $4,000 year. According
to the World Mr.. Moody accepted the
attorney generalship on condition that
it would terminate March 4 next, bur
it is believed he will be invited to re-
main in the cabinet in some other ca
pacity.
