KAM|MURA
REPORTS ON ESCAPE OF
SIBERIAN FLEET
WARsHIpS TOO SWIFT
And Eluded the Japan
ese PurSuerS.

Toxic. July Admiral Kamimura's
report of the escape of the Russian 81
berian feet which eluded the vigilance
OF the japanese squadron on Friday
evening shows that with their greater
speed, the Russians can continue their
raid against .theJapanese coast line with
very little fear of being cornered. The
Japanese scouting squadron sighted the
Russians late Friday between the is
lands Of Tshushima and Ok. Pursuit
was at once ordered but even under
forced draught the Japanese could not
gain an inch and finally at 5:45 p. m,
Admiral Kamimura .signaled his torpe-
do fotilla ito get close to the enemy at
any cost" The destroyers succeeded
in reducing the distance between them
and the enemy so that they were able
to launch few torpedoes, none OF
which reached the mark.
The Russians apparently fearing this
torpedo attack, extinguished all but
their search lights which they concen-
trated on the approaching destroyers,
They fired several volleys from their
lighter caliber rifles, some of which bat
tered the foreworks of the japanese
small craft. Then the Russians extin-
guished all lights and made off in the
darkness
The attack Of the Russians on Cen
san is believed to have been for the
purpose of drawing off the japanese
feet which is guarding the straits SO
that the Siberian squadron will be able
to make for Port Arthur. If that was
their purpose it failed in execution.

Marshall, Texas, July IA big fire

started at $50 o'clock and at 10:45
1t looked as II the business part of the

from here has been sent to Jefferson

The fire started in the plant of the
Torrans Manufacturing company The
flames soon swept that block complete
ly away and spread to an adjoining
business block which was also soon
almost entirely burned. The fire then
attacked the Apperd block and after
that had been partly destroyed, and
the firemen were powerless to check
the names dynamite was resorted to
and several buildings in the path OF
the fire were blown up, and the fire
thus checked. 1t Is reported to be un-

80 much confusion that conditions bor-
Ger on panic and 1t is almost impossi-
BILE to get any details of the losses to-
night. The value of the property de-
stroyed is estimated all the way from
100000 to half millions dollars.

Inside Inn Advantages
Why the Only Hotel in the Worlds
Fair Enclosure Promises to Be
Popular HosteIry.
COMFORT AT MODEST PRICES.

COMFORT AT MODEST PRICES.
There is one large hotel on the
grounds of the Worlds Fair at st.
Louis called THE Inside Inn" 1t has
a capacity of accommodating with
comfort and safety, 5000 guests. 1t
is located near the southeastern corner
of the grounds and convenient to two
of the entrances. In its immediate vi
cinity are many of the beautiful build
ings erected by the states and territor-
les.
The Inside Inn is embowered in nat
ural forest trees. 1t Is in fact bit
big bit--of suburban enterprise set
in the edge of great city. From the
doors and windows OF the Inside Inn
one is not compelled to look upon sun
baked stone streets, sweltering alleys
and dead walls. On the contrary, the
guest has an outlook upon primeval
forest in which appear here and there
the inviting outlines Of new houses
built without quaims as to cost and
embellished with all the artistic adorn-
ments that architecture can supply.
Looking farther. the guest may behold
the graceful towers and the stately
domes of the most wonderful city on
earth-the Louisiana Purchase Exposi-
ton.
In snort, the guest at the Inside Inn
will be practically summer resorter,
away from the din and clamor and dust
and heat of the busy city, and yet near
enough to the Worlds Fair glories to
behold some of them in few minutes
If percahnce he shall become a-weary
of the wondrous wealth OF things to
see and hear, for the time being, he
may HE him back TO the Inside Inn
where In his own apartments or In the
cozy lounging-rooms or parlors OF the
Inn he may enjoy a delightful rest
fitting him for return to the heart OF
the Worlds Fair, refreshed and re-
vlved.
The guests at the Inside Inn will bt
the only visitors who can see the
Worlds Fair from their own front
door, so to speak; for at the Inn they
will be at home, and while viewing
any part of the great Exposition they
will have the satisfaction OF knowing
that short walk OF brief ride OF
the Intramural cars will take then
home without going outside tn
grounds

Interesting Suit Filed in District
Court Today by Bender
& LingenfeIter

Bender & Lingenfelter, attorneys for
George w. Overtield, have filed suit in
the district court against John Over
field, Rose Overfield. Harry Poyneer
George S. Bailey and the uJmbo Min
ing & Milling Company, limited. The
case is a peculiar one in which the
plaintiff alleges practically that while
under the influence of liquor and
through coercion of defendants John S.
Overfleld and Rose Overfield that he
was induced to sign over to them
twenty thousand shares of stock in the
Jumbo company The other defendants
in the action are enjoined as agents in
disposing of the stock and the transfer
of same.
The complaint is a lengthy affair and
in part is as follows:
THAT the defendant John Overfield
is the brother of the plaintiff and that
the defendant, Rose Overfield. is the
wife of the said brother; that said de-
PENDANTS heretofore resided in New
York City. and while there were with
out money or means and the plaintiff
at his own expense brought said de-
PENDANTS to Idaho and provided for
them the necessaresas we'll as some
of the luxuries of life: that the plain
tiff was on very friendly and intimate
terms with the said defendants John
Overfield and Rose Overfield and re-
posed confidence and trust in them;
that the plaintiff is a drinking man
and often under the influence of liquor
and from and after the month OF Sep
TENDER, 1902, for about one year or
more, the plaintiff was continually in
in this condition at various and divers
times the said defendants attempted
to secure for the plaintiff said certi-
ficates of stock and the said plaintiff
under the persistent demands and CO.
ercion of the said defendants finally
while In this drunken condition, and
upon the promise of the said defend
ants that they would protect him in
said stock and would not sell or dis
pose of same in any manner gave to
each of the said defendants certif-
cate of stock in said company repre-
senting ten thousand shares of its cap
ital stock amounting in all to twenty
, thousand shares of the capital stock
of the said Jumbo Mining & Milling
company, limited"
The plaintiff also alleges that the
two first named defendants secured the.
stock with the alleged intention of
cheating and defrauding the plaintiff
and that they lead him to believe that
I they would protect his interests in the
said stock and that the same would not
be sold 1t is further alleged that the
stock in question is now in the hands
of brokers to be sold at price far be-
meath its market value. The suit is
brought to enjoin the sale of said stock
and for the delivery to the plaintiff the
stock in question.

as me that it s far better to have but

fusion arising is such that it is very
annoying, and while we have in our
offices the two systems, we would
cheerfully abandon one of them and go
back to the old system, and l am salts
