JAP VICTORY DUE TO CHARGES
Carried Nanshan Hill After Nine Oes-
perate Rushss.

pSFdle RuSnSS.
Toxic. May 3O.-The brilliant vis-
tory achieved by the japanese army
at Kin Chou was due to the desperate
charging of the infantry. who showed
wonderful bravery in storming Nam
shan Hill
Nine successive times the japanese
charged the fortified heights in the face
Oh storm OF death dealing missiles. and
in their last effort they carried the forts
and trenches only after a bayouet 70
bayonet conflict with the Russians. who
made desperate, despairing struggle
to beat back the oncoming hordes.
At critical moment the ammunition
of the artillery ran low. and Il was de-
cided TO cast the remaining ammuni-
tion into one final desperate assault.
Fortunately, however at the moment
this decision was reached the Japanese
squadron .o EiLchCu Bl,. vN.eh had
ceased bombarding when the infantry
had first moved forward. suddenly re-
sumed the Shclling OF Nanshan Hill.
Then il was that the issues OF the
day were determined at a moment when
the outcome was huttering between
success and defeat for Japan--at that
moment was an almost certain repuse
converted into victory SO successful
that the forces OF the car were swept
into confusion and disorderly retreat.
With every Japanese gun centeriug its
fire upon the Nanshan forts and
trenches, the Japanese infantry sprang
over the bodies of the dead comrades
who had sacrificed their lives in the
previous fruitless charges The entire
line rushed forward toward the Russian
left, where the fire of the japanese
squadron had proved most deadly and
which was the first to weaken under
the deathdealing bombardment. And
it was there that the first breach was
made in the human stone wall that all
day had been an invincible barrier to
the impetuous assaults of the brown
men.
1t was the fourth division of the
Osaka men that stormed the Russian
left. 1t had once been said that Osaka
men were not brave. 1t will never ba
said again.
The first division IF Toxic, which
had the centre, and the third division
of Nagoya, occupying the left. and
which had been exposed all day to the
Russian fire against the front flank,
now followed the example OF the
Osaka men, and rushed forward, and
the battle became transformed from an
artillery duel into one of personal con-
flict, with the bayonet as the instru-
ment of warfare. On every parapet the
restless, death-defyins Japanese surg
ed forward in increasing numbers, and,
hustling the Russians from their
trenches, swept over the hill. At 7.30
o'clock, as the sun was sinking be
meath the horizon, the flag Of the land
of the Rising Sun floated above the
blood-sodden Nanshan Hill, while the
shouts OF 'Banzai" swelled from hill
TO hill and re-echoed from squadron
to fort.
The Japanese paid Tor their victory
in $500 killed and wounded. To the
Russians the humiliation of defeat was
intensified by the loss of 6S cannon and
10 machine guns, while lying dead in
the forts and trenches were 500 men.

TROUBLE ON THE STREET.CARS.
Scandalous Treatment-FinedT Twenty
Dollars-Colered Folks Walking.

No colored person who resides in this
city has as yet been caught in the Jim
Grow" street-car trap. 1t would seem
to an observer that the cars were being
run for white people only, so few are
the number of colored people seen on
them.
The ilorning travel is also very light.
Colored laborers are walking and the
drays, produce and delivery wagons
haul quite a number down town free of
charge. 1t is a source of great incon-
venience TO many, but they heroically
walk despite the draw backs. MANY
white people are also declining TO pat
ronize the street cars. They do not
like the idea of being ordered around bv
the many green" conductors now IN
the company's employ.
lt is noticeable fact that the law is
being disregarded in many instances and
white people may be seen sitting ANY,
