GARRISON RELEASED.

LONDON, July 5.-Advices from To-
kyo say that Russia has, through
France, offered to surrender Port Ar.
thur TO Japan, together with its ships
and arms there providing the garrison
is freed There is no confirmation Of
the report.
1t is said by military experts at Muk-
den that with the rainy season at hand
the japanese have lost their opportuni-
ty of dealing General Kuropatkin a
crushing blow. Neither the world in
general nor the japanese knew how
weak the Russian army was in the
earlier stage of the war. and practical
ly the Russian army was then nom
existent, but now Kuropatkn has 20.
600 men, and re-enforcements are pour
ing in at the rate OF 1000 per day
The general staff at St Petersburg
has received the following dispatch
from Lieutenant General Sacharon:
"The enemy's advance guard in the
Kaichow district has retreated south
ward and occupied line nine miles
northeast Of Scnuchen
"Senuchen is occupied 10y an infantry
detachment
According to our information, the
enemy has at least 10000 troops con
centrated around Siuyen.
THE Japanese are now occupying
their original positions at Dalin pass
mo movement beyond Daln pass
toward Haicheng is observable"
The Russian losses in the war in
killed and wounded SO far number
5000. Many more have been in hos
pital.
Agents of the admiralty have tested
five different types of submarine YES
sells and, according to apparently relia-
BILE information, have purchased the
Protector, which is now at Cronstadt
and one Holland boat, now en- route
Ten torpedo boats are being built at
Riga.
The Japanese still hold Dain pass,
while the Russians have captured Ou-
dalin pass. The similarity of names
led TO the premature report of Jap
anese retreat from Dalin pass.
Major General Mistchenko is harass-
ing and driving back the japanese be-
tween Siuyen and Kaichow, already
intlicting a loss of about 600 in killed
or wounded.

OF FOURTH
Bennington Had Its Typical,
Listless, Lifeless Day.

'The Fourth" was quietly observed
about as usual. The day was ushered
in by ringing OF bells, blowing OF
whistles and firing of crackers. Be-
fore daylight a gang of hoodlums
went through the streets of the village
defacing signs, carrying away gates,
and chairs from verandas, removing
stepping stones and carrying them
into the middle of the street and cut
ting up other capers entirely foreign
to the proper observance of the nation.
al anniversary.
Company K came marching home
from their Wcodford camp late in the
afternoon looking none the worse for
the As days campaigning that they had
been taking.
One of the most painful accidents Of
the day was the discharge OF a revolt
yer 10 the hands of Miss Martha
Sweet. The weapon was loaded with
blank cartridge but she did not know
it and discharged the revolver with
one hand in front of the muzzle. Her
hand was badly lacerated.
Freddie Graves clipped one finger
painfully with arevolver he was firing.

TOOK TEN
TO WIN 1T
Locals Won Exciting Game
Monday Afternoon.
HIGGINS LONG HITS WON
Best Game of the Season Wit
messed By a Crowd of over
Six Hundred.

Nearly 600 people Saturday after.
noon Witnessed what vas in some re.
spects the greatest game of base ball
seen on the local grounds this season.
To be sure there were few spectacular
plays, only few balls we're batted out
of the diamond and the score wa
small, . to ! in favor OF Bennington.
On the other hand the entire game
was marked by quick, snappy base
| ball. The strike-outs were few. Al
most every batter raped the ball in
to the iafeld and made his dash for
first base only to see the sphere neat
ly handled and to hear Umpire Bat
ties say Your out"
The visiting team, the Dorpians,
from Schenectady played at North
Bennington Sunday and put up an ex-
hibition that gave the local enthusi-
asts every reason to hope for close,
sharp game.
1t required but the FIRST inning to
show that the game was going to be a
fast one, Both pitchers were in ex-
cellent form, both had excellent cor
troll and were apparently equally sue
cessful. Inning after inning went by
without score. Schenectady would
occasionly put man on second but
nearly all the Bennington batters were
out on the way to first base.
In the last half of the fifth Higgins
reached third on an error of center
field and hit by Love but failed to
reach the plate.
The first score was made in the last
half of the seventh. On a corking two
bagger to right field by Higgins, Love
went from first to third and immediate
ly after scored on a wild pitch,
The Dorpians tied the score in the
9Th, colfple of hot grounders through
Adams enabling Saul to cross the
plate.
Home team drew blank in the 9th
but in the tenth Cronin reached first
on tielder's choice, put out at
second A wild throw to first advanc-
ed him to second. Austin, the next
man up, put out a long fly to center,
and as there were two out Cronin
started for home. Smith, the Dor
plan center fielder, made good try
for the ball but failed to hold it and
Cronin romped home with the winning

EXCURSION ON HUDSON.
Party viii Go Down the River On Barge to
Prospect Park

The joint committee from the Young
Peoples Societies of the Methodist,
. Baptist and Congregational churches
of this village, have completed ar
range ments for their excursion down
the Hudson river to Prospect Park,
Friday of this week.
a special train will be run from Ben
nington, leaving at 7:20 a. M, and
connec ting with the boat which will
leave State street dock, Troy at 900
a. m
The trip down the Hudson will be
on barge which will be towed by one
OF the fastest tug boats on the river.
This arrangement asures safety to
those who are naturally timid after
the recent Slocum disaster, as well as
greater comfort on the boat, being no
heat from the furnaces, or throbbing
of the engines.
This is the first Union Excursion of
its character which has been attempt
ed here in years and it SHOULD be very
enjoyable and successful outing for
our people.
Z. j. Murray the agent for the Troy
Exc ursion Beats will personally con-
duct the ride; well known caterer of
Troy will serve dinners and suppers
and refreshments can be had on the
boat and at the Park.
