JAPANESE ARE CLOSING

Battles Are Raging at Outlying
Points Near Port Arthur and
Troops Are Engaged in Con-
flict in Hills Near Hsiu Yen.

Toxic, May 14.-Reports indicate
that a battle is raging, or has been
fought, in the hills surrounding Hsiu
Yen. The first reports indicated that
the battle commenced Thursday, but
no definite report of the result can
be state authoritative.
The Russians are said to have lost
more than 1,500 men and to have
withdrawn, leaving the town to the
Japanese.
Hsiu is directly In the path OF the
Japanese first army crops and bat.

The country is very hilly there and
the outcome OF the battle would de.
pend largely upon strategic posi-

Hal Cheng would be the objective
point.
Reports also reach here constantly
OF fighting in progress at points near
Port Arthur, but reports Of the fall
Of that city altar a bloody battle and
the loss of10, 900 men are undoubt-

MONTGOMERY CITY MISSOURI FRIDAY, JANUARY 29 1901

The Standard of last week says
that "no editor can lay claim to
the title Of gentleman who allows
indecent personalities and vulgar
stories to creep into the editorial
or other columns Of his paper. -
That's right. The TRIBUNE Is
more than pleased to sec this con-
temporary getting around on the
side OF morality and good citizen
ship. Let him now denounce po-
litical lying, deception and bood-
ling by newspaper men. And
when he has once said II, let him
not coward like, try to take advan-
tage Of the baby act by falling back
on spasmodic dcccncy and dignity
to defend himself. Very few
persons admire q man, be he editor
or not, who tries to play the bully
OF moralist one day and when
found out later proves TO be but
coward and dcccivcr. As Socrates
said when he took the cup of
poison; "To-dsy you win, but
tomorrow the people will wake
up" For come unknown reason
the Standard editor seems to
stand In almost slecplcss awe
for his personal character, but by
exhibiting a spirit of repentance
and practicing discretion on his
part, combined with gratuitous
advice from the TRIBUNE, II Is to
be hoped that he may yet manage
to run the gauntlet.

hessrs. Murphy and Myers Have
Runaway Accident.

Tom Murphy and Al Myers had a
hair-raising experience wi tn runaway
team Monday morning bat luck was
with them and both escaped with no
more serious injury than Il few bruises.
They were ON their way to MOntezuma
and while going down the steep hill
about four miles from town the front
axle of the buggy broke. This started
the horses to plunging and the men, inn
prsoned as they We're by the buggy
top, were in serious pre,iicanent.
They were pitched forward directly un-
der the horses feet and it was Il miracle
that they were not trampled to death
bv the frenzied animals. As it was they
were carried along with the wreckage of
the buggy for Il short distance until the
horses finally freed themselves OF the
vehicle. When they picked themselves
up, both Mr.. Marphy and Mr.. Myers
were greatly surprised to find that the
other was not hurt They had a weary
tramp back town. The horses made
better time and were here when they
arrived. The buggy, which was =
wreck, was brought in next day.
