Significant Silence Indicates
Something Doing by
Belligerents.
ONLY VAGUE RUMORs
London Believes the Japanese are
Making Desperate Effort to
Capture Post Arthur.
Twenty-Fovr Hours Since Wires
Have Brought Real News From
the Seat of War.

London, March 2.-No confirmation
of the report published yesterday in
the Daily Telegraph that the Japanese
had bombarded Port Arthur Feb 20
has been received from any point
The wires from the scene of war have
been practically silent for the past
twenty-four hours and in some quar-
tiers this silence is supposed to indi-
cate that Japan's great attack on Port
Arthur is actually in progress and
that consequently the use of the wires
has been discontinued.
In a dispatch from Shanghai a cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph re-
ports that the Japanese military au
thorities object to the installation of
wireless telegraphy apparatus on the
newspaper dispatch boats.
The correspondent of the Daily
Mail at Che Foo, who has just returned
there from Chemulpo, Korea, cables
that Japanese transports carrying
troops continue to arrive at Chemulpo
at the rate of one day, while pro-
visions are being landed near Hwang
Ju GA miles northwest of Chemulpo,
at the head of the Tai Dong river
where large force of Japanese in
fantry has concentrated.
"A serious defeat has been disclos-
ed the correspondent continues, land
it is feared that most of the Japanese
horses are unserviceable. The Japan
csc squadron at Chemulpo has been
stationed permanently in Prince Je-
rome gulf between Chebido island and
the anchorage. Yesterday | saw
cruiser of the Niitaka type beached
at the entrance of Nam-Yang creek.
She was deserted except for a Japan
csc guard.

The answer 10 THESE charges may be
found in the action of Russia herself
That her government never entertain
ed any sincere desire for peace can be
clearly seen from it's own conduct.
Throughout the whole course of the
negotiations Russia persistently re
fused to NEE the proposals made by
Japan in a moderate and conciliatcry
spirit BY delays that could not be
construed as otherwise than wanton
and unnecessary. she put off the set
Element OF the questions at Issue, while
at the same time busily extending her
naval and military preparations. Her
war-like preparations in the far East
since last April, when she failed to
carry out her treaty engagement to
eyacuate Manchuria, are in full con
firmation of these statements. Dur
ing that time the increase made in her
naval strength in the far East was
$4,000 tons.
There has been the greatest activ-
fty possible at Port Arthur and at
Vladivostock, and work has been car
ried on day and night to strengthen
the Notifications OF those naval ports
while forts have been built at Hun
Chun, Lao Yam and other strategic
points, and large quantities OF arms
and ammunition have been sent to the
far East by the Siberian railway and
the vessels of the volunteer fleet. In
the middle of October last a train of
fourteen cars was hurriedly sent from
Russia loaded with the equipment of
a field hospital.
From these military and naval
preparations of every description,
made during the progress of neg0tia-
tons, il is quite evident that Russia
was not inclined to a friendly settle
ment of the questions then under dis
cussion between Japan and herself, but
sought solely by her military prepOn-
derance to force Japan into submis
sion. On Jan. % a formal order to
prepare for war was given by Admiral
Alexieff to the forces which were sta
toned in the vicinity of the Yalu. On
Feb. l the military commandant at
Vladivostock, under the orders of his
government, requested the Japanese
commercial agent at that port to no.
tify his nation that a state of siege
might be proclaimed at any moment,
and they must make immediate prep
arations to withdraw to Habnrovsk.
About the same date all of the war
ships at Port Arthur, except a battle
ship then under repairs, made a naval
demonstration by leaving port, while
troops were advanced in large num-
bers from Lao Yang toward the Yalu
In view of these facts who can say that
Russia had no warlike intentions or
that she was unprepared for war?
Seeing that the situation had become
so critical that it admitted of no fur
ther delay, the Japanese government
was compelled to break off negotia
tions that had proved abortive and to
take the necessary steps for self-pro-
lection. But the responsibility for the
challenge to war rests not with Japan,
but solely with Russia.

sia her decision to terminate the pend

A Coal Famine.

Fl Wayne. Ind, March 2.-Ft.
Wayne and vicinity is suffering from
a coal fam:Ae that threatens to be-
come as serious as that of last year
The price of hard coal went to SO last
week, and for several days could not
be had at any price. The railroads
are blamed for the shortage, as deal
ers say they cannot get what they
have ordered The long haul is more
profitable for the roads than the short
ones and plenty of coal goes through
Ft Wayne every day.

NO ALIBi GOES
Plan to Aid Murderer Frustrated by
Brother of Accused.

Chicago, March Paul Neidermei-
er. brother of Peter, who is one OF the
car barn bandits now on trial, yester-
day refused to testify for his brother
1t was announced that Paul Neider-
meier and Mrs. Neidermeier, the moth
er of the two boys, would testify that
at the time the car barn murders were
committed, Peter Neidermeier was
home in bed. The refusal OF Paul to
testify caused the alibi TO fall fiat, and
the case of NeiGermeier and Gustav
Marx will go to the jury without
single witness having testified in their
behalf The evidence given in behalf
of Van Dine to show that he was the
irresponsible victim of epilepsy, and
hereditary insanity will be offset by
ten or a dozen witnesses who will give
evidence in rebuttal.

GENERAL STRIKE DECLARED
All Hands Except Teamsters Walk Out of
the Yards

All Hands Except Teamsters Walk Out of
the Yards
The general strike Of packing house
employees was duly called and exc
cuted, all hands except the teamsters
quitting work. The packing houses
had been making preparations for the
walk-Out, in view of the fact that
no answer was made to the reply Of
the packers to Donnelly's charges.
Four train loads of new men were
landed at the packing houses yester-
day and other train loads came in be-
fore this morning. All the clerical
force was initiated into new duties;
stockades were erected to protect the
workers from mObs. while policemen
were on guard everywhere.
The packers claimed to have nearly
5000 men with which to start opera
lions. These men were distributed
among the different plants as follows:
Armour & Co., 1.5oO; Swift & Co., L.
300; Nelson Morris & Co., 900; the
Hammond Packing company, 200; An
glo-American company. 700; Libby,
Mcneil & Libby, 800. A settlement Of
the strike may be insisted upon by
Mayor Harrison If developments show
that the public interest absolutely de-
mands it. In the meantime arbitra-
ton through the good Offices of the
mayor Is remedy open to the oppo-
sing sides on request from either Such
was the position outlined by the may
or, who was called back to Chicago

means to an end. We don't live to

are greater wonders than our skyscrap-
ers, but they tell of nothing done for
humanity. The only thing that can
save this country from the destiny
that destroyed the nations of the past
is to put into the life of the people

WAS THREATENED WITH DEATH
Unless She Would Go to ST. Louis
Supposed Dead Man Is
AIiye-Notes.

Indianapolis, July 25.-Inez Record,
the 1S-year-old girl who was found in
an unconscious condition By search
ing party at the side of a country road
last Tuesday night, has revived suffi-
ficiently to give her father a detailed
account of her adventures. Her story
supplements the statements made last
Thursday to her sweetheart, when she
temporarily revived from a long per-
1od Of Inconsistencies. Immediately
after making the statement she suf-
fered relapse, and since then no one
had been allowed to question her.
White Man Did the Tai king.
She reiterates her first story that q
white man accompanied by a negro en-
tered the house while she was writ
ing letter. Selling her they bound
and gagged her and placed her in q
buggy, where she says she tainted.
When she revived she was being car
ried into the woods. There the men
told her that she must go to st. Louis
with them, and that if she refused she
would be killed. While telling her Of
their purpose the white man, who did
the talking, held a revolver at her
temple. Miss Record says she told the
men they could kill her, but she would
not go.
Taken Into the Woods Again.
She was then carried to the buggy
and driven by circuitOus route she
thinks, until within q short distance
of where she was found. Again she
was taken into the woods. where the
white man renewed his threats to take
her to st. Louis. Finally, the girl
says, he offered her 81 900 is she would
go. When she refused a. knife was
drawn across her throat with the
threat that it would cut deeper if she
did not consent to go. On hearing her
refusal she was carried for some dis
lance and lowered into water, waist
deep, several times. After this she
says she says she remembers nothing
She describes the white man as large
and powerful, and wearing a SLOUGH
hat. Her recollection of the appear
ance of the negro is vague.
