Russians Still Think a Bat,
 tie Is Not Immediate
ALLPASSES ARE GUARDED
Oyama's New Tactics - What Little News Has Sifted Out From Port Arr thur Is Regarded at St. Petersburg as Favorable.

While the Japanese are reported to be slowly advancing upon Mukden. there has been no fighting worthy of note between the opposing armies un- der General Kuropatkin and Marquis Oyama. The latter, according to mill itary critics at St. Petersburg, is like ly to pursue tactics quite different from those essayed by the Japanese. at Liao Yang and it is expected that the attack will come upon the Russian front and Hanks, rather than in the form of an enveloping movement.
 Definite information from Port Ar thur Is very meagre and inconclusive and minor successes there are report ed. Russian spies alIege that a consid- erable force has been detached from the Japanese army which captured Lao and sent back to aid in the oper- atiOns against Port Arthur. The for nation of seven Russian rifle brigades Tor service in the far east has been or dered.

JOCuIar Remarks by the ViCe-PreSidentiaI Candidate
THE RACE ISSUE, FOR ONE
hr. Davis Sees in the Continuance of the Republican Party in Power Nothing but Bankruptcy = All This Happened at Wheeling, ". Va.

Wheeling, W. Va, Sept. 22.-Henry G. Davis, the democratic vice presi- centlal candidate, spoke to a large gathering of people in the political wig Wam here tonight. It was an enthusi- astic opening of the campaign in
 Wheeling. When MT. Davis arose to speak the long continued applause be- came embarrassing. He spoke clearly and distinctly and held the audience admira bly,.
 In comparing the two great parties MT. Davis said; "The democratic par- ty always administered the government with prudence and economy. The re- publican party is party of extrem- ists and has been wasteful and extrav- agant in its expenditure of government funds. More money is being collected in the form of taxes than is necessary Tor an economical management of the government, both national and state. and if the republican party is contin- ued in power, still larger taxes and greater taxes will follow, as their lead ters tell us that they propose to pursue the same policy in the future as they have in the past.
 The expenditures for the fiscal year 1904 were greater than for the preced ing year and the appropriations aI- ready made for the year 1905 are Iarg- CT than those of 1904. And this moi withstanding the fact that no river and harbor bill was passed at the last congress. Apparently in a futile at- tempt to keep down expenses and also to prevent examinations into the post- office and land frauds, the congress at Its last session was brought to a close earlier than in any long session since 1860.
 He then reviewed government re- ports on revenues for the last year. de- clarlng that the revnues are falling off 'whlIe the expenses have greatly in creased. He said: The extravagan.e in the conduct of the government is greater now than at any other time in the history of the country and unIaes the people at the polls in November oeclde upon a change more debt must ensue."
 He regretted that the national plat form of the republican party raised the race issue and continued: "The so,t;o- erh people who have to bear the bur- den of this question. were dealing .vit1, It Tn moderation and fairness. but it's unfortunate agitation by the repubIi can leaders had made it's solution much more difficult and hindered inc efforts of those who were bones+Iv to aid the colored people in l4piiItlhg the1T race. A large majority oL over the million of white voters of this country are democrats. McKin- ley received S64,0OO votes more than Bryan and this was the largest major ny ever given presidential candidate There are. however, as shown bv tba Iast census, two million male neeroe.

APPROACHING A HEAD.
Rapid Development of Japanese De.
 signs Against Kuropatkin.

St. Petersburg, Sept. 22.-The Japan- ese operations against Mukden are rap Idly developing. General KuroDatIxiD announces that the Japanese army at Rentsiaputze is beginning to advance northward- Outposts yesterday tried to capture Kaoutou Pass, commanding the road to Fushan. The Russians are offering stubborn resistance. which Is likely to retard decisive operations huropatkin has placed strong forces astride the Mukden and Fushan roads to Behtslaputze. The Russians are also holding all the passes of the Da Range. eastward on Bentsiaputze.
 A dispatch frSm Harbin announces that another Japaneee regiua,+ ,s moving further eastward. but if is re- safded as improbable that the Japan ese will move in considerable force from Dziant Chtan along the roads leading to Mukden. Fushan and Sin tsintin. Severe fighting is probable before the Japanese succeed in req cb- Ing the Hun river. There is no further news from Port Arthur but anxiety as 10 the fate of its gallant defenders has neen relieved by foreign telegrams re- ceiVed here announcing that the Jan anese have not captured any important positions.
 Field Marshal Oyama's lengthy re- port of the repulse of what he calls the Russian counter attack on Pintafzu IS classed here as being nothing more or less than the Japanese version of me reconnaissance of General Samson or and Rennenkampf's forces north of Bentsiaputze, detailed from here in the Associated Press dispatches of Septern- Der 19. Oyama's report attributes un- due importance to this opera tion. Ku- ropatkin obviously did not contemplate pressing home his attacks since he sent comparatively small force against the Japanese mafn. army.
