Japanese Officers Killed at Liaoyaug.

has as yet been intimated.
Japanese Officers Killed at Liaoyang.
Toxic .(By Cable).-A mass of Off
cial reports on the battle of Liaoyang
reached the imperial headquarters.
but they will not be given out until
it is possible to put them in order and
make them a concise and detailed
story.
1t is generally known that General
Kuropatkin succeeded by means of a
desperate rear-guard action and strong
and well-handled flank movements in
withdrawing the great bulk of the Rus
sian army and that he cut bridges to
hamper the Japanese pursuit
Crushing Blow at Port Arthur.
Chefoo (By Cable).-The second
general assault on Port Arthur as
sumed crushing proportions August 27
and continued undated until the morn
ing of August 81, when the Japanese
retired everywhere, except from Pa
lichuang, which they have, apparently,
firmly secured This information
comes from Chinese messenger sent
to Port Arthur, and it confirms pre-
vious fragmentary advices. The mes
senger adds that Itzsha1 was reat-
tackled August 80 with great fury, but
the Japanese were unable to secure
position. Another Chinese who de-
parted from Port Arthur September 2
saws that a fierce assault was made
on the left flank at 3 o'clock in the
morning of that day. The assault
lasted until A. NJ. when the jap
anese retired The bombardment then
recommended, the Japanese firing
chiefly from Suishiying and Palichu-
ang, the Russians from Antszshan.
Combined Losses 1900.
The Japanese losses, according to
the Russian estimate. were 5000 dur
ing the four davs from AUGUST ~ to
August 81. The Russian losses are
placed at 5000 During the assault
shells from the field guns and rifle
bullets fell in the city. The Russian
ships in the harhor participated occa-
sionally in the firing.
A reliable authority in touch with
events at Port Arthur declares that a
week ago the garrison numbered, ap-
nroMimatelv, 1900. Accepting the
Chinese report of the recent losses the
efficient men now number 900. The
pas. week'e advices confirm previous
deductions that the Japanese are bend
ing their fercest ENERGY to secure an
inqress along the railroad. Itzshan,
Rhlunashan. Palungshan. Antszshan
md other positions frequently men,
toned, sustaining the most desperate
and repeated assaults and lombard
ments. all directly or indirectly block
the plan of the Japanese. The ar
rangement of the forts affording mu-
tual support renders the Japanese
scheme exceedingly difficult of execu-
ton. No Japanese have been near
Liaoti Promontory for sometime.
The Japanese now expect, it is
stated. two months or possibly more
of fighting before the fortress is taken.
They give the garrison no rest. As
saults no sooner cease than the ar
tillery increases its thunder.

SPOR rs. OF THE DA y
READY TO SWIM CHANNEL
WILLIAM GLOVER, JR., OF BAITI-
MORE, WILL TRY TO PERFORM
FEAT THIS SUMMER,

New York Sun Special Service.
Baltimore, April 2S.-William Glover Jr..
who won the title OF long distance champ
ion swimmer last summer by swimming
across the Chesapeake bay, has completed
negotiations to attempt to swim across
the English channel from Dover to Calais.
With his father and trainer he will leave
on June % for England. He starts out on
Sunday to select his training quarters at
some point on the bay and will make sew
eral preliminary experiments in the chan
mel to become accustomed to the currents
before making the attempt to cross.
In Glover's swim across the bay from
colchester beach to River View park, Bal
timore, Glover swan twenty six miles
covering the distance in sixteen hours and
ten minutes. When he accomplished the
feat he was encased in a covering OF
paraffine. Glover has several times tried tc
lower the time, but in each case he was
unlucky enough to strike unusually rough
water. On one of his attempts he was in
the water ten hours without food or drink
Glover feels confident Of his ability tc
cross the channel

Special to The Journal.
Columbus, April 2S.-Large1y thru the
assistance Of the weather clerk, Column
bus was able to get away with the first
| series with Minneapolis series consist
ing Of one game. Rain again prevented a
contest yesterday, much to the disgust of
Manager Watkins, who counted on evening
up matters for Tuesdays defeat. The
milers are feeling quite chesty, and are
already figuring out how they will run
away with the penhant. They say the To-
ledo team is slow-not much better than
they will not have to fear the senators
much. The fans differ somewhat with this
View, but 1t must be confessed that to a
spectator Of Sundays and Tuesdays con-
tests It looked as II the mtllers should
have taken at least half the four games
had they been able to play.
Catcher Weaver, whom the millers
bought from Columbus, is the tallest
backstop in the association, standing well
over six feet. He is a frst-class man,
and Watkins says that he is now satisfied
that his backstop department, the only
weak spot on the team, is strong as any
Of them. The milers now have four
catchers on their payroll-Weaver, Leslie,
Ludwig, and Roach. The two latter will
probably be released.
The millers left last night for Louisville,
where they open four game series to-
day. They talk confidently of taking two
or three games from the colonies, but ex-
pect to have a harder pull at Indianapolis.
There Is no disputing the speed Of the
millers in the field and on the sacks. Sun
day they fairly dazed the senators. The
way they played the bunt game was espe-
cially remarkable, and the slightest bobble
by senator on. an infield hit meant that
the runner would reach first. AS to the
4 pitchers it is hard to judge, Thomas and
i Owens only having been seen at work
here. Their hitting also is doubtful
quantity. They hit well at Toledo, but II
is said that the park there Is as small as
the St. Paul grounds, which means thai
many Of the hits scored would have beer
outs on a field Of decent size. Sizing the
team up as a whole however, it looks as
If they would be decidedly in the race.

PLAY AT NICOILET PARK TO-
MORROW AFTERNOON. s

The baseball game between South high
school Of this city and st. Paul Central
at Nicollet park tomorrow afternoon is
expected to- be one Of the most interest
ing Of the whole interscholastic series. st.
Paul IS anxious to defeat South high to
even uf for her defeat at the hands of
the orange and black in football last fall,
and the players from down the river are
confident that they will be able to turn
the trick. st. Paul is getting quite chesty
because her team was the only one to
score on the state university. The South
high players. however, are confident that
the heavy hitting and infleld and outheld
strength Of their team will offset any
points of excellence possessed by their OPP
ponents. The lineup of the South high
team follows:
Berg, catcher; HELM and McGregor
pitchers; Johnson (captain), first base;
Schindeldecker, second base; Erickson

concluded their meeting last week.
The profits taken from Charleston be-

returned is between $4,000 and $4,000,
being for the months Of January, Feb
ruary and March and part OF Decem-
ber. The expense Of the litigation
will be deducted from the money for
December, but this will not amount to
much. 1t is the purpose of the board,
so one Of their number stated a few
days ago, to buy only what stock is

stock now on hand is exchanged or

Tragedy at Boykin.

Columbia. Special.-J. McRae Whit
taker, of Camden, was shot and killed
Saturday afternoon at Boykin station
Oh the Southern Railway by j. E. Gil
liz. The two men had some trouble
some time ago, about fire, which
Whitaker charged Gillis with setting
or his mother-in-law's plantation. This
afternoon Whitaker met Gillis and his
father on the Camden road, the trouble
was renewed when they reached Boy
kin station. Whitaker called to w. A.
Boykin, merchant, and telling him
CT the trouble, suggested that they turn
over their pistols to Boykin and fight
it out fairly with their fists. At this
juncture, while Whitaker was about to
pass the pistol to Boykin, Gillis fired,
the ball penetrating Whitaker's breast
over the heart and causing death in
few minutes. The elder Gillis was arm
ell. but didn't shoot. Whitaker was
about 25 years old and Gillis is about
80. Both are progressive farmers.
