She leaned forward. and fixed her
eyes on him in just the manner he
used to find so irresistible. Somehow
1t seemed less distracting now. The

looked out of place on it. There was

London, April 4.-Reports of further
skirmishing between the Russians and
Japanese in the Yalu river region are
reaching London, but no reliable de-
tails are given.
The Daily Telegraph's Seoul corre-
spondent believes that the defences
of Port Arthur have been so weak
ened that the early capture of the
port is to be expected. There is lit
tie doubt, the correspondent says, that
only narrow passage is left, and
that at the first favorable opportunity
the Japanese will block the channel.
The Russians have taken many 12-
inch guns out of their ships to arm the
old and new defences of Port Arthur.
A correspondent of the Morning Post
at Yin Kow says that the position
there is daily becoming stronger. A
fortnight ago the Japanese could have
landed with comparative ease, while
now they would experience great diff
fcultv.
The correspondent says he has re-
ceived trustworthy information that
the concentration of troops along the
railroad has been so rapid that it is
now impossible for the Japanese to
carry the war into Manchuria with
any hope of success, and that the most
they can do is to isolate Port Arthur
and possibly Vladivostok.

TELLS OF BRAVERY
ABOARD THE BAYAN

St. Petersburg, April 3.-The Novi
Krai of Port Arthur thus describes the
scene on board the cruiser Bayan dur
ing the recent bombardment, in which
she distinguished herself:
Bursting shells bowled over man
after man until the decks were slip
perry with blood. Amidst this hell
the captain stood unmoved in the con-
ming tower, calmly telephoning his
orders to the gun captains. His Won
derful calmness had marvellous in
fiuence upon all the officers.
1.-THE cockpit was soon crowded,
thirty-nine men being there before the
fight ended; but amidst the crash of
the guns. the hiss of flying splinters
and the din of the working engines,
the surgeons labored over the wound
ed as at the hospital operating table.
Although some of the men suffered
frightful agony, there were few groans
in spite of the fact that anaesthetics
We're administered in only one case.
"When the battle ended, and the
enemy began to draw off the officers
en- the bridge cheered and the cheer
ing extended down into the hold, the
stokers and even the wounded join
ing in it, !.
"The captain signalled for full speed
ahead after the retreating Japanese,
but the Bayan had not gone far be-
fore the flagship signalled to return. :"

JAPANESE ADVANCE
REACHES SENGE CHENG.

Toxic, April 8, p. m.-The advance
guard of the japanese army in North
western Korea occupied the town of
Senge Cheng yesterday afternoon with
out opposition. Senge Cheng is on the
Peking road eighteen miles west of
Cheng Ju and about forty miles south
of Wiju.
When the japanese drove the Rus
SLAMS out of Cheng Ju last Monday
the Russians withdrew in two columns,
one going over the Koak San road,
and the other over the Peking road.
The Japanese advance from Cheng Ju
was made very rapidly. 1t was an
ticipated that the Russians would re-
sist this advance, but they failed to
do so, and it is not probable there
will be any further opposition south
of the Yalu river.
Cheng Ju, because of it's superior
natural surroundings, is the strongest
place between Ping Yang and Wiju.
Besides these natural advantages there
is an old Korean fort there, which had
it been defended with spirit, would
have been hard to take. The Jap
anese are gratified at the comparative
ease with which they drove the Rus
slams from this fort.
Russian patrols are reported to be
in the country east of the Peking road,
but it is not probable that there is
| any considerable force of Russians in
that section. The patrols are with
drawing gradually to the northward
toward the Yalu.
1t is reported that the ice on the
Yalu is we'll broken up and in the
| future the river must be crossed either
in junks or over pontoon bridges.
| A dispatch to the Associated Press
from Toxic, dated April l. said infor-
nation had been received there from
: - private source that the Japanese,
after dislodging the enemy at Cheng
Ju, had advanced to Yong Chun (about
forty-five miles west of Cheng Ju)
from which place also they drove the
Russians after a brief engagement. 1t
! is possible that the many different
spellings given to Korean names in
gazeteers and on maps has led to con-
fusion and that the Senge Cheng mem
toned in the above message and Yong
Chun referred to in the dispatch of
April 1, should be the same place.
The two towns, however, are quite dis
tinct, being about twenty-five miles
apart.

NO S0UTHERNER FOR
VICE PRESIDENT NOW.
Gov. AycOck Thinks 1t Would Be
Well to Wait.

wen w
Columbia, S. c., April 3.-In a let
ter to a Columbia newspaper, whose
editor some months ago nominated him
for the vice presidency on the Demo-
cratic ticket, Gov. Charles B. Aycock
of North Carolina says:
please permit me to thank you
for the article which recently appear
ed in your paper. l appreciate your
kind reference to me more than l
have power to convey to you in a
letter. While appreciating the men
tion of me for the vice presidency I
deem it proper to say that not only
do not seek it, but neither wish it
nor think it advisable.
IF we can get the two wings of the
party together and nominate some man
for President who has a chance of
being elected, / do not believe we
ought for the present to lessen that
chance by the nomination of a South
ern man. If, when the convention
meets it becomes apparent that we
cannot elect a Democratic candidate,
then / believe the nomination of a
Southern man for vice president would
be good thing. 1t would get the
Northern people used to voting for a
Southerner and in defending their
position about it they would necessar-
lily defend us. Then when the time
comes when we can elect a Democrat
we could nominate a Southerner for
vice president"

EVENTS IN THE EAST.

Japanese continue landing troops
in Korea. Five more transports
have reached Chemulpo with light
artillary, calvlry and infantry.
Japanese exultant because of the
comparative ease with which they
drove the Russians from the posi-
ton the latter occupied at Cheng Ju.
Ice on the Yalu river is reported
as well broken, and that river
must hereafter be crossed in junks
or upon pontoon bridges.
Description of one of the bat
ties at Port Arthur tells of the
valor of the crew of the Bayan,
which suffered severely under the
Japanese fire.
Preparations have been made at
Port Arthur for the japanese

Albany, N. Y. April From a

1t has been during recent years an
almost Inbroken custom for the New

there no instructions. In that year

DISREGARDED SIGNALS
OF THE CLEMATIS.

New York April 3.-The German Le-
want Line steamer Tenedos, which ar
rived this morning from the Black sea
and the Mediterranean, fell in with
the disabled Belgian steamer Clematis
on March 16 in latitude s5, longitude Al.
and towed her into Fayal.
The Clematis was bound from Ant
werp for Savannah in ballast and had
been drifting about for twenty-five
days when the Tenedos was sighted.
The shaft was broken and the stern
tube shattered. The after compart-
ment was full of water.
Several steamers had pasesd the dis
abled craft, on the decks of which
fires were lighted to attract attention,
and although all passed within a few
miles, no attention was paid to the
signals. The crew of the Tenedos
worked twenty hours in the ships
boats in rough seas to pass tow lineg
on board the Clematis and several
lines were broken before they finally
were secured. After towing the Glenn
ats 626 miles, they arrived safely at
Fayal.

OF fresh dissensions between Viceroy

ieged that the viceroy wants his views

Riding the country of Japanese adopt
ed, whereas Gen. Kuropatkin insists
IN retaining sole responsibility for the

tary operations. There is reason to be-
ileVe that Gen. Kuropatkin will be left
1ree, Viceroy Alexieff being too judi
clous to create troubles on account of
