MINISTER BARRETr HERE.
Will Take Short Rest Before Proceed
ing to Panama.

John Barrett. late United States minister
to Buenos Ayres and now minister to PAN
anna arrived at Washington today and
called upon the President and Secretary
Hay. Mr.. Barrett is In the United States
to take short rest from his official duties
before going to his new post at Panama.
1t was expected, from the nature and i'm
portance of work with which he was
charged by President Roosevelt when ne
went to Argentina. that Mr. Barrett would
consume at least a year and a half In car
rying out the plans of the administration.
Instead he was able to complete the work
in four months time, and finding that
there was likely to be an important future
in Panama he voluntarily relinquished the
delightful Argentine mission to accept the
arduous duties of minister to Panama for
in view of the prosecution of the great
canal enterprise and the establishment of
relations with the Panaman government on
original lines. there is very much to be
done.
One of the first undertakings of the new
minister will be to assist in the delimitation
of the city of Panama, which Is to be al
lowed to remain under control of the pres
ent local authorities. except perhaps in
matters of sanitation, and, supplementing
this task. Mr.. Barrett is to endeavor to
harmonic the governmental methods OF
Panama with those of the United States SO
far as the canal strip is concerned.

JAPS R0UT COSSACKS
REPORT OF THE AI-YANG- -PIEN-
MEN BATTLE.
Fighting in the Dark and Ineffective
Losses on Each Side Be-
lieved Small.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 81, 1:30 PM
The war office has received a detailed re-
port of the fight at Ai-Yang-P Men,
about sixty miles northeast of Feng-Wang-
Cheng, on Saturday night, in which two
battalions of Japanese infantry and one
squadron of japanese cavalry, numbering
about 200 men, attacked five squadrons of
Cossacks.
The Russian losses were seven Cossacks
killed and one officer wounded and nine
horses lilled.
The Cossacks were encamped twelve
miles northwest of Kuan-Dian-Sian, which
was held by several japanese battalons,
two of which and one squadron of cavalry
left May 2S for Saimatsza. This force en-
countered the Cossack bivouac at 1890
O'clock the same night and attacked the
Cossacks, who retired in good order. keep
ing up a running fight along the road to
Saimatsza. There was a great deal of 6r-
ing on both sides, but, like most fighting in
the dark, 1t was very ineffective, as shown
by the smallness of the Russian losses.
1t is believed the japanese did not sustain
any greater casualties but according to
one account the majority OF the Japanese
squadron was wiDed out. After reaching
Saimatsza May 20, the japanese returned
to Kuan-Dian-S Sian apparently not liking the
vicinity of the Cossacks, and In view OF the
possibility of Gen. Rennenkampf bringing
up reinforcements.
The war Office attributes little Importance
to this engagement, which was heralded
from Tokyo as japanese victory.
Strength Of japanese Force.
There is considerable talk in unofficial
circles regarding the strength Of the Japa-
nese force which engaged the Cossacks at
Al-Yang- g-Pien- Men. 1t is evident that the
Japanese have large body Of troops north
east of Feng- g-Wang-Cheng, which, it is sug-
gested will advance when General Kuroki
deems the moment opportune to effect
turning movement on Mukden. Whatever
information the war Office has on this point
is naturally kept secret No alarm Is dis
played, the understanding being that Cen
eral Kuropatkin has the situation well in
hand,

FIGHTING ON PENINSULA.
Refugees at Niuchwang Report Daily
Skirmishes.

NIUCHWANG. May 81 (morning).-Ref-
ugees who continue to arrive here from the
southern part OF the Liao-Tung peninsula
report daily fighting there and severe losses
for both armies. but the reports are not
confirmative officially.
The Russians here are depending on the
press bulletins for news from that vicinity.
The very highest Russian authority here,
while not believing that Port Arthur will
fall admits that its loss would be a terrible
blow to the Russian arms. The same au-
thority says Russia may send large army
TO the south of Niuchwang in the event
Of Gen Stoessel being able to hold his own
at Port Arthur. This, however is not pos
slble at present, owing to the positions oc-
cupied by the Japanese armies operating
from the Yalu river and Taku-Shan.
The Russians are not sangune as to the
outlook for Port Arthur. More contraband
Of war is arriving here. Two cargoes of
four and timed meats and some specie
were rushed TO Mukden as soon as they
were unloaded.
Heavy rains are daily making the roads
almost impossible.
Chinese brigands are becoming active.

Leave-Taking Silent and Sad.
The leave-tak1ng in the home was silent
and sad. There were brief services by the
Rev. j. R. Ramsey, D. D., pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church, consisting of a
prayer and few brief words of consola-
ton to the family. Only the family went
up to the little bed room above the sena-
tors beloved library and took last look
at their dead. Mrs. Quay broke down
again and cried as she did by her husband $
bedside on Saturday afternoon when the
physicians told her he was dead.
Those Of the family in the room were
Mrs. Quay, Richard r. Quay and his wife
and little children Of Weickley, Major A. q,

DEMAND A FAIR SHOW"
REPRESENTATIVE OF LA FOL-
LETTE COME TO SEE MR.. PAYNE.
Want Their Delegates to Chicago Put
on the Temporary Roll of
the Convention.

The presence in town at this time of a
number of Wisconsin republicans of promi-
nence draws attention to the impending
crisis in republican politics in that state.
The politicians here today are: w. D. Con-
nor, chairman of the state committee, and
Gov. La Follette's partisan; /. L. Lanroot,
". L. Houser secretary of state; c. g.
Cuttings and Editor Myrick of the Mil
waukee Free Press
These friends of Gov. La Toilette are in
town to confer with Postmaster General
Payne, acting chairman of the republican
national committee. and with President
Roosevelt If that is possible, over the
treatment to be accorded to the La Fol-
lette faction at the coming meeting Of the
republican national committee and to serve
notice on the administration that the La
Toilette republicans must have fair show
at Chicago. That is a plain statement of
the mission of the Wisconsians, although
none of them would probably put 1t quite SO
broadly for publication.
The republican national committee meets
at Chicago June Is, and will take up the
work of preparing the temporary roll OF
the national convention. 1t is of Importance
to the Wisconsin factions which one gets
on the temporary roll, for the other is then
placed in the position of contestant.
The La Toilette people claim that. the
Spooner-Q Quarles faction were the bolterS In
the recent state convention, and that the
La Toilette delegates should be placed on
the temporary roll and kept on the perma-
nent roll, for that matter. They realize
that there is possibility of strong pressure
adverse to them being exerted by Senator
Spooner and Senator Quarles, and as Post
master General Payne occupies the double
position of acting chairman of the COM
mittee and political adviser of the Presi-
dent, they want to put in some earnest
licks with Mr. Payne in their own behalf.
Up to this time all factions in Wisconsin
have earnestly insisted that whatever their
family troubles may be, they are loyal to
the national administration, and that the
Roosevelt national ticket will come to no
grief through their factional squabblings.
What position they would assume in
event Of the national committee deciding
against them at Chicago is another ques-
ton, however, and it probably will be af-
fected by the result of the conference of
the Wisconsin missionaries with Postmaster
General Payne.
All parties at issue are refraining from
making threats as to what they may or
may not do, realizing that the present sit
uation Is most delicate and embarrassing
for the President and the national leaders
The meeting of the national committee
June Is will be exceedingly important
Unless compromise can be reached in ad-
vance the question will come up for final
adjudication by the committee.
