War News
The Battle.

Chefoo, Feb. 9.-The japanese have.
dealt the Russians crushing blow in
Port Arthur. At the mor-at of cabl-
ing 90 a. m. 1--WE have reports of the
disablement by torpedoes of the Russian
cruiser Pallatda and the battleship
Retzivan and Czarovitch, which for
some time to come will erase them
from the effective list of Russia g navy.
This was followed later by naval
battle, all the warships and forts par
ticipating. The 16 battleships and
cruisers Of Japan, with their torpedo
boats, steamed slowly in battle forma-
ton at Sunday midday towards their,
goal. They came in sight of Port Ar
thur under cover Of the darkness and
cruised slowly outside without showing
lights. All the torpedo boats were de-
tached to make an attack on the Rus
slams, who were lying in the roads, ap-
parently feeling perfectly secure.
Without delay nearly all the JAPAN
ese torpedo boats were dispatched on
their daring and dangerous task.
They rushed under q full head of
steam on The enemy, who were COM
pletely surprised. The rattle of small
arms greeted the invaders, who came
on at full speed without being injured.
Almost Immediately the Retzivan,
the Czarovitch and tho Pallada were
torpedoed.

No Lives Lost.
Baltimore, Feb 8.-When darkness
fell tonight the people of this stricken
city knew the worst was over. The
flames which for more than "a hours
had swept resistlessly through the heart
of the city were checked. An army of
firemen from m any cities, work ing un-
til wearied and aided by muddy little
stream, finally conquered. Worn by
night and day of terror, the great
crowds that watched the ruins of their
city turned homeward, and at midnight
the streets were deserted, save for the
police and military who guard the
burned area. To the south red glow
rises and falls marking 40 cares of de-
squares of property that
represented values to the ex-
tent of from $75, 900, 900 to $125, OOO,-
700. Not even close approximation
,an be made of the loss. No guess can
be made of the insurance.
Not single life has been lost and
not a human being has been danger
,usly injured. The hospital lists con-
lists of minor burns, with the excep-
ion of Jacob Ilgingritz, a fireman from
Yrok, Pa. He has fractured leg and
s badly burned.

have been seriously crippled. One re-
port says the japanese battleship shi-
kishlma was sunk. The people are dem
onstrating, but there is no official con-
firmation OF the report, and the an
nouncement is discredited.

 morrow.

New York, May 3.-Dr. W. E. Wood end, of W. E. Woodend & Co.,, the sus- pended stock brokerage firm, was ar rested at his home in this city this af- ternoon. The police had been search ing for Woodend several days, war rant having been issued against him charging grand larceny. To-day the district attorneys office received a tele- phone message from John H. Warner. Woodend's attorney, saying that Wood end was at his home and ready to sur- render himself.
 Woodend was held in s5OOO for a hearing Thursday. MT. Warner said he would furnish cash bail. Woodend was arrested on the warrant issued on the complaint of E. H. Goodwin. of Petersburg, Va. who alleges the loss of S,6Oo

Chwang last evening, the Russians falling back to protect the railway
 St. Petersburg. May 3.-Lieutenant- General Sakharoff. in a dispatch dated May 2 to the general staff, says:
 ''On May 1 two vessels, apparently torpedo boats. approached to within a distance of about six kilometres from the coast to the west of Siniuchen (west of Haichu). At first two steam CTS were observed cruising near the coast until p. m. Then squadron of ten vessels was sighted steaming to- wards the northwest.
 No ships were sighted in the neigh borhood of Yinkow.''
 London, May 4.-The Daily Cronicle's report of the capture of New Chwang is not confirmed from any quarter, and it is hardly likely it is true as the news could scarcely have reached Chefoo. The official dispatch from Lieutenant General Sakharoff, however, seems to indicate that the Japanese are directing their attention to this point.

TO MAKE PAYMENTS IN PARIS.
Morgan Completes Financial Arrange
 mcnts of Canal Transfer.

Paris, May 3.-Haying wound up the details of the big financial transaction connected with the Panama transfer. U. Pier9ont Morgan left Paris at 2 o'clock this afternoon for Aix-les- Rains. Before his departure he gave the core sDondent os The Associated Press the main points of the final agreement. as Sollows:
 The Panama Canal company wished to have the money turned over in Paris instead os in the United States, and was willing to pay all the expenses in cident to the payment here. In order Ito accomplish this the United States has appointed the Morgan company fiscal agents for the purpose of the payment, the Morgan company in turn ito make contract with the Panama company, whereby the $40,OOO,0 900 will be paid in Paris. This contract specifics the Banoue de France as depository, and also the proportion of the pay ments going to the old and the new Panama companies respectively. The signing of this contract closes the transaction. it only remaining for the

 The report that syndicate of Paris bankers is interested is incorrect. The appointment of the Morgan company as fiscal agents places the whole trans action in their hands. They will asso- ciate with Lazard Freres and other houses os a similar character in New York and here, but so far as the United States is concerned it entrusts the fi- financing operations to the Morgans. The other details correspond with those lforeshadowed in these dispatches on April 29, viz, that in the transfer of the
 $40, ,00O,000 the total would be divided into a number Of smaller amounts, leaving America at intervals and thus not causing q strain at any time.

PLATFORM TO BE MADE
 AS BRIEF AS POSSIBLE
OF THE REPUBLI-
 CAN PARTY LEADERS.

PIanks Discussed at Recent Confer
 ences Between Them and the Presi-
 dent-PrincfpaI Feature VIII be the
 TariG-strong Adherence to Princi-
 pIes of Protection With Free Hand to
 Make Changes in Schedules.
 Washington, May S.-The platform to be adopted by the republican national convention has been among the topics discussed at the conferences between the president and party leaders recent ly
 The principal feature of the platform will be the tariff plank, which will de clare in the strongest terms the adher- ence os the republican party to the principles of protection. but will not bind the party not to revise the tariff. It will say that the party is not com mitted to any schedule, but that chang es should be made only when changed conditions of business or the treasury render it necessary or, advisable. Per sons present at the recent conferences say it already has been agreed that the tariff will be revised in the 59th con gress if the republicans win in Noven- ber..
 There is determination to make the platform as brief as possible, conse- quently the endorsement of the admin istration and the acts of the party will be put in compact form. This endorse ment will be a general approval of the course of the president and of the ac- tions of the republicans ill congress.
 The plank concerning trusts in effect will declare with the laws for the regu- lation of monopolies and the restraint of conspiracy against commerce were enacted by the republicans. and that the enforcement of such laws have been only by republican administration. It also will say that it is not the policy or intention of the republican party to assail legitimate industry and business, or to infringe on the rights of persons or property. Special attention will be devoted to the phraseology of this plank.
 Some difficulty has been experienced in finding the proper wording for a re- ciprocity suggestion.
 Mention of the financial question will consist of all illusion to the maintenance of the gold standard by the republican lparty and a promise to continue the | finances of the country upon a sound basis.
 Dsfranchisement of the negroes in southern states will be denounced as an encroachment on rights guaranteed by the Constitution
 The demand for restoration of the merchant marine of the country will be renewed, but it is not the intention to endorse any specific plan. There are several other suggestions as to blanks in the platform, but the de- sire to have the platform as brief as possible may eliminate them from con- sideration as unnecessary at this time.

BLooDY ANTI-JEWIsH RIOTS

Vienna, May 3.-Reports are current here that there were serious anti-Jew- ish riots in the Bessarabian town of Bender April 30. It is stated that the rioting began Saturday forenoon while Ithe congregations were in the syna- |gogues.
 The mob smashed the windows of houses in the Jewish quarter, entered the houses and threw women and chill Edren out of the windows, A girl was murdered in most revolting manner, the reports say. Cossaoks were sent to restore order.
 The outbreak is said to have been due | to the anger of the crowd over Russian lreyerses in the Far East
