NOT THE RUSSIAN PLAN
RESIST THE ADVANCE,

st. Petersburg, April 26.-The Cen
sors' Committee did not give out to-
night the dispatches. received to-day
regarding the movements of the Japa-
nese across the Yalu river. 1t was
intimated that further Information had
been received that the Japanese had
crossed the river, but this was accom-
panied by a statement that the sue
cess of the enemy should in no sense
be regarded as an important victory,
the Russians having no intention of
vigorously contesting the passage,
their plan being to annoy the enemy
as much as possible.
1t is evident from the dispatches re-
ceived here that in order to render a
crossing feasible, the Japanese made
a feint on Tatung Kau, while the
troops actually crossed some miles up
the river near Tchangdjiou. Two COM
panies were first thrown into Manchu-
ria and unquestionably entrenched
and Immediately under the cover of
their guns reinforcements crossed.
these troops are in sufficient numbers
they will march along the Manchurian
bank of the Yalu in the direction of
Antung, near which lies the road on
which the advance can continue to Fen
Hoang Tchang, where the first deter
mined stand of the Russians will be
made. c b.
No report has been received here

ARE BUILDING PONTOONS
TO CROSS THE STREAM.

Lao Yang, April 27.-On April % the
Russians observed that the Japanese
We're making preparations to cross the
Yalu river.
On the night of April 25 two steam
ers and two torpedo boats were noticed
at the mouth of the river, They APP
preached the shore at daylight and
the Japanese commenced to build a
pontoon on the left tributary. A sec
ond pontoon is being prepared ten
miles up the stream.
AT 3 O'Clock the same afternoon the
Japanese occupied the island of Sam
olindo, to which they carried pontoon
boats, etc.
The night passed quietly, the tor
pedo boats maintaining a careful watch
in case the troops ashore should be
attacked, and examining the mouth OF
the river by means of searchlights.
At $40 o'clock next morning the
Japanese crossed the river near the
village of Tchindiagon CO, where, how
ever, the Russian outposts commenced
firing upon them.
The Russian advance guards had
been furnished with a small gun and
they succeeded in destroying the pom
toon constructed near Win The
wrecked pontoon was carried away by
the current and further Japanese
bridging operations ceased, but the
japanese continued to cross by another
pontoon southwark of Wiju.
A Japanese column, with a battery
of artillery, approached Turenchen al
midday but the Russian skirmishers
met them with sharp firing, evidently
giving them trouble, as they retired
with the battery, which made no at
tempt to answer the Russian fire.

ROLLINS COLLEGE RAISES
A LARGE ENDOWMENT FUND

Winter Park. Fla, April 26.-This
has been a red letter day for Winter
Park and for Rollins College. A year
ago, DR.. d. X. Pearsons of Chicago,
who has done much for institutions of
learning, proposed to the management
of Rollins to contribute $4,000 toward
an endowment fund, on condition that
the college raise an additional s150000
The date fixed for the raising of the
money was April IA, 1904.
With commendable enterprise the
friends of the institution set about
raising the required amount. Several
other prominent Chicago people inter-
ested themselves and contributed lib
orally. The required amount was sub
scribed by the date specified. but for
obvious. reasons 1t was not publicly
announced at that time. President
Blackman of the college is determined
to increase the fund to a quarter of a
million, and other friends are equally
determined, that this shall be done.
The exact amount of the supscrip-
lions, as announced to-day, is $206. 1856,
or $6,285 more than enough to secure
DR. Parsons contribution, and that
much of starter on the additional
$4,000 which 1t is proposed to raise.
The first building erected in Winter
Park was THE Roger House." a mod
est sized hotel or boarding house,
which was kept by Mr.. and Mrs. e. A.
Rogers from the day of its compile
ton until few months ago. 1t has
since been greatly enlarged and has
played an important part In the his
tory and development of this delight
full and popular Southern resort town.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-04-27

Included in the assets making up the
endowment fund is THE Rogers
House." which was purchased by two
prominent citizens of Winter Park ana
donated to the endowment fund of the
college. 1t is to be enlarged to nearly
twice its present size, refurnished and
made first-class. 1t has already been
leased for a term of years at a rental
which Will pay handsomely on the cost
and will yield to Rollins a substantial
annual income. One Of the features
of to-days festivities was the unfurl-
ing of a banner above the hotel, re-
christening 1t Seminole Inn," and by
this name it will be known hereafter
There were no school exercises at
Rollins to-day. The college people
and their friends took a day off in
order to celebrate an event which,
next to the establishing of Rollins in
the first place. Is the most important
one in the history of the college.
Among the pupils is a large Cuban
contingent, embracing some of the
brightest and most promising young
men and young women in the institu-
ton. These young men opened the
celebration with a dashing tournament
in which they displayed a horseman-
ship as creditable as has been their
progress in acquiring an education.
IHtS OCcuIIeu OH the principal DOule-
ward of the town. Other athletic
games were participated in on the
athletic grounds.
The celebration closed with a ban

Governor at VnIdostn.

Valdosta. Ga, April 26.-Memorial
Day was celebrated here with unpre-
cedented enthusiasm to-day. business
being suspended, and a large crowd
turned out to hear the address by Gov.
Terrell.
The procession to the cemetery was
led by the Valdosta Videttes, under
Capt. Fender, followed by the Gov
ernor's carriage, in which also rode
Judge Emory Speer, Mayor Briggs and
Maj Varnedoe. Then came the
Daughters of the Confederacy school
children and citizens generally. Mr..
w. D. Peoples was marshal of the
day, with j. M. Harvey and S. NJ. Var
nedoe, his assistants. At the ceme-
terry an excellent musical programme
was rendered, followed by a recitation
by Anna Ashley.
Mr.. Roy Powell introduced the Gov
ernor in a very happy manner, and the
executive captivated his large audi
ence by one of the most practical adj
dresses ever delivered here. He said
in the outset that he would talk not
as the Governor, but as plain South
ern man, turning his office over in the
meantime to his lieutenant governor,
Col. W. S. West, also seated on the
platform, and who happens to be a
candidate for president of the Senate
He claimed that the best proof of the
righteousness of the South's cause was
in the purity of the Southern leaders.
In eulogizing Lee as the grea test of
Southern leaders, he stated that Lee
would have been great under any cir
cumstances or conditions. But in ad-
dition to his greatness he led a great
army.
He referred to the fact that the
North had 100000 foreigners in the
field while the South had only her
own brave sons. He also said that
while every other state gave men
to the Northern army, Georgia did not
| give one. Virginia and South Caro-
lima, it was true, furnished negro SOL
dlerS but Georgia did not even con-
tribute a negro company. He re-
| ferred to Lord Wolseys magazine ar
ticle, in which he states that the world
furnished five great generals, Hannibal,
Caesar, the Earl of Marlborough, Ma
poleon and Robert E. Lee.
There were many strong points In
the Governors speech and he was
loudly applauded. Gov. Terrell was
given a brilliant reception tonight by
the Daughters of the Confederacy at
Mr. ]. N. Griff1ns home. He left at
midnight for Atlanta

IN NEGRO QUESTION.
No Social Equality and Education
Separately, Says Galloway.


Birmingham, Ala, April 26.-The
seventh meeting of the conference for
education in the South convened in
Birmingham tonight. The first ses-
sion was devoted to hearing addresses.
Col T. G. Bush delivered the address

Alabama.
Bishop Galloway of Jackson, Miss,
also addressed the conference. His adj
sion. Bishop Galloway devoted his
entire time to a discussion of the ne
gro question.
Bishop Galloway said that two points
in the negro question had already been
settled in the South. First, they would
never be equal socially; second, they
would always be educated separately
and in different buildings. This was
applauded by both whites and negroes
in the audience.
The Jefferson theater, where the SEES
sion was held. was crowded to it's
capacity. Much enthusiasm was man
ifested. The conference will bo in
session until Thursday night, when
President Ogdens party will leave for

CONDITION OF CROPS.
Weather Conditions Have Interfered
With Farming.

Weather Conditions Have Interfered
with Farming.
Washington, April 26.-The Weather
Bureaus weekly summary of crop
conditions saws:
While preparations for corn planting
have been active in the principal corn
states, as a whole but little planting
was done during the week, owing to
low temperature. In the Southern
states corn has suffered from cold
weather and is small, with irregular
stands.
Cotton planting is general over the
northern portion of the belt, and is
nearly finished in the central and
in general progress, the early planted
in Texas and Florida receiving it's first
cultivation.
Over most of the central and eastern
districts the stands are unsatisfac-
tory and much replanting will be nee
essary. Low temperatures and
droughty conditions have retarded ger
mination very generally in the central
and eastern districts. Planting is
about finished in Texas, except in the
central and southwest portions of the
cotton area, where some fields of wheat
ruined by drought are being planted to
cotton.
Tobacco plants have been injured by
frost in Virginia and Kentucky, and
are reported as small in Tennessee and
North Carolina. Some transplanting
has been done in South Carolina.

night and this morning the Japanese
forced a passage of the Yalu, two COM
panies crossing between Tchangdjiou
