CANNON WILL NOT
 BE A CANDIDATE
SPEAKER OF HOUSE GIVES OUT AN INTERVIEW IN WHICH HE REPEATS HIS DECLARATION MADE IN WASHINGTON.

Chicago June 19.-In view of a threat ened revival of the movement to nomi- nate Speaker Cannon for the Vice Pres idency, charged this time to the New York delegation. MT. Cannon tonight au- thorized the Associated Press to quote him as follows:
 After mature consideration, having in view the great compliment that the Vice Presidential nomination would be to any citizen, yet am speaker of the house of representatives. and have been a member of that body TOT nearly thirty years l feel that my sphere of usefulness If l have any, is in connection with the house.
 About a week after the close of the late session of congress, at the request of friends and perhaps others, gave out an interview on this subject. This was done after full consideration, and stand by the interview which stated in sub stance that I consider the speakership the second highest office under the gov- ernment and if the next house was re- publican, I hoped to succeed myself, and if not to cheerfully to do my duty on the minority
 MT, Cannon concluded his interview with the statement that he was not now a candidate for the vice presidency; that he would not at any future time be a candidate, and would not under any con ditions accept the nomination.

RAIDING CRUISERS
 ARE STILL AT SEA
VICE ADMIRAL SKRYDLoFF HAS ACCOUNTED FOR THREE OF JAPs' TRANSPORTS, BUT DOES NOT LOCATE THE SQUADRON.

St. Petersburg, June 19.-vice Admiral Skrydloff's message to the emperor from Vladivostock, in which he details the op- erations of the Yladivostock squadron, indicate that he has accounted for at least three of the Japanese transports, besides a suspected collier. The message does not indicate the present wherea- bouts of the squadron.
 The fact that the collier was sent to Vladivostock under prise crew might in- dicate that the news of the operations of the squadron was brought there by her and that the crusiers are still at sea.
 The destruction of an aggregate of 15,- 900 tons of shipping besides troops and crews, and valuable cargo of supplies, is considered here as being good show ing for the raid made by the cruisers. It is thought that it will have a moral sef- feet, and will besides necessarily divert considerable section of Vice AdmirRl Togos feet in an attempt either to round up the Vladivostook fleet. or protect the line of the sea front concerning which the Japanese until recently felt so secure
 News of the movement of the fleet is awaited with intense interest

 "On the expiration of the time given these on board to lower their boats and leave the ship. permission to do which was taken advantage of by part of the crew. the transport was sunk by our guns.
 Shortly afterwards two more trans ports were sighted to the southeast. They proved to be the Hitachi and the Sado, the former with troops and the latter carrying coolles. horses and railway plant The transports refused to surrend- CT and at the end of the period granted

Tactics of laps Admired.

Liao Yang, June 19.-For the first time since the beginning of the war, General Kuropatldn has taken personal direction of the operations. and in consequence of his having assumed the offensive, results very different from those following recent events are anticipated. The tactics of the Japanese are admired here, but their strategy is criticized especially with re- gard to the battle of Vafangtien Dune lq, which may truthfully be called an artil- ley engagement. During that battle, the infantry extended over the field further than the eye could reach, one division covering six miles.

Jap Survivors Arrive.

Nagasali, June 19.-@ D. m.)-Three boat loads of survivors of the Japanese transport Izumi, which was sunk by the Russian squadron off Oshima on the morning of June 15, have arrived at Hakata. Twentytwo other survivors have landed at Maizuru. The survivors declare that the Izumi was surrounded at o'clock on the morning of the 18th by Russian ships and that the passengers on board her were transferred to the Russian armored cruiser Gromoboi after which the transport was shelled and sunk The persons removed from the Japanese ships, numbering eighteen all told, were confined below on board the Gromoboi.
 During the afternoon of the day while off Okino Island, twenty-two non-combat- ants were trans-shipped to the Japanese vessel Unko.
 The Gromoboi then proceeded to the north.

those on board to take to the boats, the two vessels were sunk by torpedoes and shells.
 "The losses on the three transports, the tonnage of which aggregated about 15.000 tons. consisted of a portion of the troops and crews, a large quantity of war material and the railway plant.
 "On June Is our squadron met the British steamer Allanton which was pro- ceeding south with cargo of coal from the port of Mourorun, the island of Hok- kaido the administrative name of the Ja- panese island of Yezo)
 The lack of clearness in her papers and the irreguIarity of her log excited suspicion concerning the neutrality of her cargo. The steamer. therefore WAS sent to Vladivostoek in charge of de- tachment of soldiers commanded by Lieutenant Pitroff. She has arrived at Vladivostock where a prize court will consider her case"
 The British steamer Allanton. Captain Clark. sailed from Penarth, Wales, Feb- ruary 20 for Sasebo, Japan and arrived there May 21.
