troll of government OF the islands.

Dying Condition.

Memphis, Tenn, July 12.-Thomas j.
McDermott. the deputy sheriff who was
shot through the abdomen in a raid on
a gambling house on DeSoto Street last

George Deggs. charging murder and
shooting with intent to kill. These
men, who are well known gamblers,
surrendered to the sheriff today and are
now in jail.
McDermott, in a statement to the po-
lice. said that Honon shot him. The
direct cause leading up to last night $
tragedy was a series of raids recently
conducted by deputy sheiffs on low
crap dives. The resort on DeSoto
Street was raided only few days ago
and many arrests were made. When
the officers appeared at the place last
night. the lights were extinguished and
the shooting began. The statement
that Honon shot McDermott is borne
out by Deputy Sheriff Shouts. who was
one of the raiding party.
Honon. Haggerty and Deggs are well
known to the sporting fraternity of the
entire South. They conduct several es-
adjustments in this city. HonOn was
recently indicted for completely in
election troubles in the Ninth ward. As
result of riot in this ward a COM
mission of public safety, composed of
fifty leading citizens, was formed.
A meeting of this commission has
been called for this afternoon to inves-
tigate last nights shooting ARRAY.

Vatican Requests French bishops Z
yacate their Posts.


Paris July 12.-The Matin today says
that eight days after the recall OF M.
Nisard, former French Ambassador at
the Vatican number OF Frencn
bishops received an order from Cardinal
yannutelli, acting for the Vatican, TO
tender their designations by return
mail.
The bishops, 1t is added. consulted
the Minister Of Public worship. ana
Premier Combes. who directed them not
to tender their designations, on the
ground that the concerdat required the
assent Of the state before removals
were enforced Thereafter the papal
Secretary Of state, Cardinal Merry Del
Val, threatened the bishops with the
termination of their episcopal powers,
unless they came to Rome within hf-
teen days. This also was submitted
to M. Combes, who forbade the bishops
leaing their posts. The Bishops OF
Laval and of Dillon; two other bishops
and three archbishops having republi-
can sympathies were the ones desig-
mated.
The Matin further asserts that the
'iisnrissal of the bishops without Con-
sulting the governments wishes VIII
be considered as q formal remuneration
OF the relations between church and
state.
The Matin gives semi official details
of the efforts of Cardinal Vannuteli TO
compel the resignation of number OF
bishops. Bishop Geay of Laval. was
asked to forward his resignation.
Bishop Nordez of DiJon was directed to
suspend the performance of his episco-
pal functions, and four archbishops and
two bishops were directed to come to
Rome namely Archbishops Fuzet OF
Rouen; Mignot of Abba: Suer of Avig-
non and Curry of Algiers. and Bishops
LaCroix of Tarentaise and Boquet or
Mende. In each case the orders were
not carried out owing to the interven-
ton of the Minister of Public Worship.
The cabinet also has formulated pro-
test which will be forwarded to the
Vatican against the effort to remove
Bishops without the observance of the
government right under the Concordat.
An answer has been received in the
case of Bishop Geay. the Vatican main
tanning that 1t was a disciplinary meas
ure not intended to contest the states
rights under the Concordat.

The catalogue of its contents, when
published, will form one of the most
remarkable documents ever issued
from the printing press. Fictitious
stories arising out of local gossip.
which fixed the value of the jewels
and other treasures found in the castle
at a million sterling may be dismiss
ed for the facts are in themselves ex-
traordinary. The living rooms In
Anglesey castle are furnished in a
manner that is magnifcently extrava-
giant.
According to the latest computa-
tions. the jewels that have been dis
covered are expected to realize at
auction from 100000 to $4,000.
The approximate value of the furni-
ture and other articles, apart from
the jewels. will be something like
$500. 900 The result of the conference
of a committee of inspection is that
there is now every prospect that the
affairs ofthe marquis will not come
before the bankruptcy court. The la
bilities at present ascertained are
s1,3SO.000 and it is believed under
the proposed deed of assignment the
creditors will regain their money in
full. plus per cent. interest, within
nine years. providing the marquis lives
that long.
The deed of assignment has been
agreed to by a large number of cred
itors, including three continental jew
elers. who have claims for about s2.-
400, 900, and certain English money
lenders.

SERIES OF SMALL BATTLES.



Toxic, July 12.-(S p. m.)-The ia
panese Takushan army is moving
north from Siuyen. 1t fought series
of small battles with the Russians on
July and 10.
The army is divided into two col

valley, but at o'clock in the evening
they took up a position on the heights
OF Shou CHA Channg. The Russians
were dislodged at dusk. when the sec
ond japanese column advanced along
the road toward Tong CHS, repulsing
small bodies of the enemy en- route.
They attacked the advance line of the
Russians near Stu Tang Laku. The
Russians were reinforced and compell-
ed the japanese to withdraw. At dawn
July 10, both columns attacked anil
dislodged the Russians from the
heights west of Sin CHA Ku. The ia
janese pursued them and again at

pying Kai Chou. General Oku's army
sunday moved northward. The Rus
slams have strong defenses at TAPPING

panese lost about $50 men. The Rus1
sian losses are believed to have been
heavier than those OF the Japanese.

sHROUDED IN MYSTERY.
Advance of the Japanese Army to tn
Tche KfaO.

Tcne h1uOs
st. Petersburg. July 13.-(3:14 a. m.)
The japanese advance to Ia Tche
Kiao is shrouded in mystery. No tele-
grams have been received by the gen.
eral staff or the admiralty since Lieu
tenant General Sakharoff's dispatch
of July 10.
The special commission of censors
sat only for one hour last evening be-
cause 1t was a holiday (the festival of
St Peter and st. Paul.. and left with
out receiving. or giving out single
dispatch.
The lack of news from Ia Tche Kiao
is not causing anxiety. The evening
editions of the st. Petersburg newspa-
pers prominently published the tele-
gram from Toxic and appearance Of
the Port Arthur squadron ton the
morning of July 81 and thus gladdened
the hearts of the holiday crowd.
1t has been intimated to the Assoc
ciated Press correspondent by the gem
eral staff that 1t is probable the ia
panese will not attempt to take YIN
kow before they capture Ia Tche Kiao,
as otherwise they would be liable to
an unexpected attack from Ia Tche
Kiao, which is within easy striking
distance thanks to the railroad
The Japanese advance north will
perhaps be delayed for some days I'M
til the southeastern columns converg-
ing at Clan Dian compel Major-Gen-
eral Mistchenko to draw off, leaving
the Stu Yen road clear to Tantchie and
Ia Tche Kiao.
As soon as the japanese troops enter
Yin Kow and succeed in removing the
mines from the mouth of the Lao
River, the Japanese gunboats lying
along the coast will come up, but 1t Is
not believed that the Japanese will
venture to land a considerable force
or to send war material so long as
the Port Arthur squadron is able to
come out whenever it likes.
There is some anxiety here regard
ing a report that the cruiser Askold
has been damaged, and 1t is noticed
that she was not mentioned In the list
of warships constituting the squadron
on its last appearance.

New Method of Avoidinx the Payment
Of Import Duties.
New York, July 12.-Behind the ar
rest Of the wireless telegraph operator
and a hospital steward employed on
one Of the largest transatlantic liners
charged with smuggling Sumatra to-
bacco, the customs officials claim to
have unearthed a new and ingenious
method of smuggling diamonds. silks.
tobacco and other merchandise which
should pay a high duty.
Smuggling in trunks, carried as pas
sengers' baggage, upon which labels
indicating that they had been proper

Trunks containing the merchandise
which the conspirstcfs arranged to
smuggle into the United States are I'M

marked with a private mark and placed
with the hundreds Of other trunks
Cowned by passengers. On arrival at
this port, the confederates. smugglers
on board the ship. were in a position
to reach the baggage and upon the
trunks Of the smuggiers they pasted
the special label. indicating that an in
spector had examined the contents Of
the trunk and found nothing dutiable
therein. When the customs officials
came across a trunk with such a label
on II they passed on.
How far the ramifications and the
extent of this scheme have gone has
not yet been determined. The expos
ure was premature and was practically
forced upon the customs men, who
were working on and waiting for big
ger game. They were compelled to
take action through the wrong ad-
dresses placed upon trunk found lat
err to contain leaf tobacco intended for
a manufacturer of cigars in Brooklyn.

trunks which came by the same steam
