that American workers in shipyards

have fixed March for the arguments.
1t was admitted at the Colombian le-

the Colombian shares, in order that
Colombia may profit in the distribu-

DENY STORY OF A BATTLE.
Russian Officials Discredit Report of
an Engagement Near Liaoyang.

ST. PETERSBURG, July Z, SOB
p. m.-The War Office denies that a
oattle is in progress as reported by the
Liaoyang correspondent of the London
Telegraph, who in a dispatch says
that a severe battle was proceeding
twenty-five miles from there and a
number Of wounded were being
brought in from the mountains. The
officials of the War Office say that
the correspondent probably referred
to the reconnaissance in force made
by Lieutenant General Count Keller
July in the direction of Molten Pass,
east of Liaoyang, full details of which
were telegraphed the same day in
long dispatch from General Sakharoff,
to whose army General KeIler's corps
belongs. General Sakharof reported
that the Russians lost more than 200
officers or men in killed or wounded.
The report of the Daily Telegraph cor
respondent was doubtless due to his
seeing the stream of wounded brought
in.
The War Office has no news Of fur
ther fighting of importance.
