The Fourth at the Fair.

The Committee on Ceremonies
ofthe Exposition at st. Louis is
now engaged upon the prepare
tion of an elaborate program for
the celebration of the Fourth OF
July. 1t is the purpose to make
Independence Day snrpass in in
terest and attendance all previous
days of the Worlds Fair, not ex-
cepting the opening day, April
30, which was a record breaker in
exposition history.
The plans as contemplated are
not yet performed in detail. They
will include features of special in
terest, beginning early in the day
and continuing far into the night.
The Director of Works has al
ready entered upon a scheme of
illumination which will eclipse in
.splendor and uniqueness the pres
ent wonderful display. 1t is the
intention to have series of at
fractions which will be free to all.
The concession amusements will,
of coulse, be running, but the ex-
position management intends to
supplement these with numerous
features given in the Plazas DUR
ing the day and the evening. In
formation received through rail
road channels indicates q very
large attendance from the SUR
rounding territory.
The 4th of July falls upon Mon
day this year. In view of the
promised attendance of at least a
quarter of million of people, the
exposition management will large
ly increase the number of free
seats, sthe provisions for free
water and other free conveniences.
The steam railroads and street
railroads will make special effort
to handle the crowds. To encour-
age the coming of picnic parties,
the three hundred acres of wood
land and lawn in the southern
part of the grounds will be put in
condition for the use of such par
ties.

INCIDENTS OF THE WAR
BETWEEN RUSSIA AND JAPAN

the Gulf of Liao-Tung. The informa-
tion conveyed by these agents seems
to coincide with other information
indicating "A complete change in the
Japanese plan of campaign, or of its
entrance into Il second stage prs c.
ticalIy involving the abandonment of
further heavy landing of troops in
Korea.
According TO adyices received by
the government there are only about
10000 Japanese troops in the Hermit
Kingdom at present. 1t is considered
possible that the Japanese reckoned
on a complete mobilization there
much sooner, but that the difficulties
met with in transporting troops from
Japan and over the roads in Korea
proved more serious than expected
and the Japanese found themselves
unable to deliver Il frontal attack in
Manchuria before the Russian troops
arrived in sufficient force to check
them.
At any rate the latest advices indi-
cate that the Japanese will not send
many more soldiers into Korea. They
may make a diversion at Possiet Bay
in the direction of Nladivostok, but
their main objective henceforth will
be in the Gulf of LiaoTung.

ANOTHER NAVAL BATTLE

St. Petersburg. March 23.-Thc en-
peoror has received the following
telegram from Niceroy AlcXieff:
Lieut.. Gen. Stoessel reports that at
midnight of March 2l, japanese tor
pedo boats were discovered by our
searchlights. Our guardships and
fort batteries opened fire on them,
the fire lasting for 20 minutes. At 1
O'Clock in the morning the attack was
renewed.
four of the enemy'S ships appeared
from the south, followed by the
whole squadron of II ships and eight
torpedo boats. Our squadron left the
roadstead to meet the enemy.
AT o'clock the enemy's battle
ships opened fire on Liaotishin after
which they took up a position behind
the rocky eminence of Liaotishin and
bombarded Port Arthur
a latter dispatch from the viceroy
to the emperor says:
According to a supplementary re-
port from Lieut.. Gen. Stoessel, the
enemy's feet consisted of six battle
ships and II cruisers. About 8
O'Clock in the morning the fleet di-
vided, the battleships and torpedo
boats taking up position between
Liaotishin and Golubinaia bay

formed up in two divisions to the
south and southwest of Port Arthur.
AT 9:20 the battleship Retvizan
opened fire over the crest of Liaoti-
shin against the enemy's battleships,
which replied by firing on the town.
Meanwhile our feet formed up in
line in the outer roadstead.
about II o'clock in the morning
the cannonade slackened and, the
japanese fleet reuniting, drew off
slowly to the southeast, and at 1890
had disappeared.
During the bombardment five SOL

In the meantime the veil has not

y series of messages dated between
March 10 and March II sent by Il cor
respondent of the Daily Mail at
Chinampho. Korea. describes the per-
feet organization and arrangements
of the Japanese in Korea. Elaborate
preparations have been made for
landing troops and advancing them
through the country, and pontoon
bridges and stables are built wher-
ever they are necessary. The great
est difficulty facing the japanese is
the commissariat, as owing to 1 e
poor food supplies of Korea it is ON
possible at present to maintain o.
600 men.
The japanese hold two enormous V
strong positions, at Ping Yang and
on the Mioako-San range, between
Hwang-Ju and Seoul. The latter. the
correspondent says. is probably inn
pregnable and secures Seoul from
land attacks from the northwest.
In the event of defeat it is intended
to hold the passes at Kazan. thus pro-

japanese troops are suffering from

The Russians intended to make
Aniu their base, but owing to the de-
lay in the arrival of reinfOrcemCnts,
they were afraid they would be cut
off and so retired. Meanwhile the
Japanese advanced to Ping Yang by
forced marches. the troops being al
most without equipment.
