Fourth Month of the Coal Ssfike

The suspension of work and
strike Of the United Mine Wor-
kers of America in Alabama has
started on it's fourth month and
both sides claim to be gaining
ground.
That there is better output of
coal at the mines where the
miners are out is not to be de-
MED. One more furnace was
blown in since last week and
preparations are being made to
blow in two others in Bessemer.
The iron production in Ala.
bama is improving rapidly and
by the end of this month will be
equal TO what it was four months
ago. The miners are remaining
quite. They are living in tents
and recently constructed houses
off the company properties, and
the leaders claim that they are
still receiving money from theii
national organization. %
The furnace operators say
that they have the fight won and
do not intend recognizing the
uuion miners any more as
union. They claim that th'
"open shop has been establish

Japs Fear of Mine.
 Che Foo. Dec. 29.-The Japanese line at Port Arthur is now as a result of the general attack beginning Decem- Der 2ath, much closer to Liao-Tie mountain.
 Chinese who left Port Arthur yester- day and arrived here today report that greatly inferior Russian force de- tended the outermost of the trenches for three days retiring when theJap- ness artillery had secured an enfilading position. The fighting mostly was at a range of two-thirjs of a mile. the Japa- nese fearing mines. The Russians re- tired to Chingkakao.
 Japanese who arrived at Che Foo to- day from Port Dalny say the recent fighting also resulted in the capture of a hill called by the Japanese Yangtsu- ban possibly Keekwan mountain) en- abling the Japanese to seriously harass land communication with the Liatia forts and with the forts on Etse and Antse mountains.
 The capture of Yangtsuban hill fol- lowed several night attacks during one of which the Japanese became con- fused, killed each other and retired. when the mistake was discovered by the appearance of the moon.
 Two steamers recently ran the block ade of Port Arthur. One of them was captured by the Japanese when emerg- ing from the harbor

occasional Clashes Between Tickets of
 the Two Armies.
 Mukden. Dec. 29.-Cossacks today brought in the body of Captain Erldar- off, a noted scout, who was killed in an attack on the village of Tifan- ty.
 Intense hatred exists between some of the opposing forces in trenches close together. notwithstanding the friendly terms existing at other parts on the fronts of the two armies. The Japanese try to heat their shelters at advanced positions with charcoal fires concealed in small braziers. so as to show no light. One of these recently was broken and the fire exposed the position of the Japanese picket. The whole party were immediately wiped out bv furious Russian fire.
 There was a sharp skirmish on De- cember 2s. at Sinchinpu. A concealed mortar battery inside the Russian line opened on the Japanese positions. driv- ing out a number of the Japanese. who sought refuge among the trees and bushes. A shell exploded a Japanese mine in front of the trenches inflict- ing considerable damage.
 The Russian batteries are connected by telephone end report the results of each others fire. Recently a field battery posted on heights caught a detachment of Japanese and drove them all out of their trenches in the immedi- ate front.

 o'clock this morning with thousand

 o'clock yesterday and made

 nese troops charged under cover of q

 Rihlung fort. situated on RihlunE
 Mountain, formed part of the inner
 circle of the chain of forts defending Port Arthur. Rihlung Is situated about two miles from the outskirts of
 the town of Port Arthur, from which
 1t bears due northeast. The fort just captured is a mile and a half south
 east of Keekwan fort, recently cap tured by the Japanese.
 The possession of these forts should | make a most important breach in the Notifications of, Port Arthur and cut off communication between the Golden Hill forts and the forts of the western section of the inner circle of fortii- | cations.
 POStttOn Of Jupahese. Outside of the capture of z0S Metre Hill on the western section of forts.
 little is known of the. exact positions occupied by the Japanese, but 1t. would seem from the material available that the inner circle of forts is now cut
 in three pieces, and that 203 Metre Hill prohibits communication with the Lia- | tie section forts just as possession Of Rihlung and Keekwan forts cut off | communication with the Golden Hill forts except By the many underground ways which are said to exist in vari- l ous parts of the fortress.
 From Rihlung Mountain. which is | nearly opposite 203 Metre Hill. it ap-
 pears that the Japanese fire will he i able to reach anything in the harbor and town which the Japanese heavy l guns on 20a Metre Hill are unable to
 hit, thus making it apparently impos- | sible for the Russian second Pacafic
 squadron to make any use Of Port Ar thur even should the Japanese con- | tent themselves with holding the strong positions they now occupy.

VON K0ERBER WILL RETIRE.
 - Austrian Premier Will Quit and Cabi4 net May Follow.

Vienna, Dec. 29.--Though there Is no official announcement of the acceptance of Premier von Koerber's resignation, 1t is positively stated that he will re- tire. The only question seems to be whether the entire Cabinet will follow his example. If the Cabinet resigns 1t is believed Emperor Francis Joseph will ask them to remain in office and that he will appoint a new head of min- istry in which case the Cabinet will re- tain its present character as a ministry of officials but not as a parliamentary ministry.
 Won Koeber's retirement is attributed not so much to his failure to restore harmony among the various nationals ties in the Reichstrath as to the fact that he has been unable to obtain par liamentary sanction for the Austrian portion of the extraordinary military credits passed by the delegations. The military authorities have been pressing for the credits and as the Premier has been unable to secure them 1t remained for him nothing but to resign.
 The reason given for his resignation Is that he Is suffering from nervous tension due to overwork. It is improb- able that any announcement regarding von Koefber's successor will be made until early in January.

Russian Member of the North Sea In-
 quiry Court.
 Paris, Dec. 29.--The members of the International Commission on the North Sea incident were surprised today to hear Admiral Kaznakoff, the Russian member, had been recalled, as no in- timation that a change was contem- plated had been communicated to the commission. This dispatch from St !. Petersburg announcing the change was laid before Admiral Kaznakoff tonight by the Associated Press. with a request for a statement Int Admiral declined to discuss the matter. The members of his suite also refused to discuss the subject.
 The retirement of Admiral Kaznakoff causes much comment here. It is con- jectured that 1t is due to renewed naval activity in Russia in connection with a possible dispatch of third squadron to the Far East, as Kaznakoff ranks as q full admiral and has seniority over Skyrdloff and Roicftvensky. cornman- ders of the first and second Pacific squadrons.
 It is also suggested that Great Britain and other governments having sent vice or rear admirals to sit on the commission, Russia deems 1t not necessary that she should be repre- sented by an officer of the highest rank.

Police Engaged in Checking Move
 ments of Mrs. Bessie BOuton.
 Colorado Springs, Col, Dec. D. Proceeding on the theory that the vic tim of the Cutler Mountain murder is none other than Mrs. Bessie Bouton the chief of police is engaged in check ing up the movements of Mrs. Bouton and Milton Franklin from the time they arrived at Denver. The results so far attained. in brief. are these:
 The couple arrived at Denver May I5. and left there on July 13. They ar rived at Salt Lake City the following day and left two days later for the Pacific coast. They arrived at Santa Barbara about. the middle of August and left there the latter part of that month. They finally reached New Orleans, but from there the chief has been unable to trace them. Nor has he been able to learn the time of their arrival in this city or where they stayed while here.
 The conviction has been reached that the woman was murdered on one of the last four days of November and If the deed was committed by Franklin. he is probably in the safe seclusion of London. England. by this time.
