AND STILL THE
ORGAN is SILENT
Alarm of Republicans is Rap
idly increasing.
MUCH Comment IS CAUSED
NO SIGN OF COMPROMISE IN
SIGHT.

Silence as to the Republican state
ticket made the editorial page Of the
party organ worthy Of note again yes
terday. At the head Of the editorial
page appeared in black type the nation
al ticket, but no word Of endorsement
or condemnation Of the state ticket was
on the page. The Lords Way With
Men, The Subway Tavern s-The
Trans Mississippi Congress- why the
West Fights Shy Trade, Business
and Finance" were handled in the
sprightly style that has made that page
famous, but aside from a pragraphfc
shot or two at Cutler. there was not a
line to indicate what the paper would
do with reference to the state ticket
The anxiety Of the candidates. pros
pective candidates and the friends Of
both classes was greatly increased in
consequence. Those who hope to be
candidates in Salt Lake county were
especially distressed. They are not
hoping for a bolt A bolt would be bad
business for them Many Of them have
become identified with the Cutler forces
and realize what the loss of the kearns
strength would mean in this county. \
Democratic majority of about 1000 was
rolled up IN the city last fall. and the
Republicans Of Salt Lake county re-
alize they can't afford TO lose a single
vote.
The belief that the Tribune is holding

not believe in compromise. Finish
fights with no quarter appear to be his
idea His friends assert with vigor that
he wiz not consent TO any proposition
based on the reelection of Thomas
Kearns to the United States senate.
Kearns has shown a disposition to-
settle 10 the best OF his ability for
little cOUrtesies in the way of left hooks
that may be landed on him, and if he
decides to bolt the state ticket 1t is a
reasonable presumption that he viii d.

place considerable space between Smoot
and a certain much advertised seat in
the United States senate.
But this war Of the senator's and
their Immediate associates is far from
comforting to the candidates. The
SmOot men probably reasoned that as
this is a presidential year, the Kearns
crowd would not fail to endorse the
state ticket, even though Smoot named

business again at the old stand. They
join the candidates IN deploring the sad
condition that exists.

Washington. Aug 2S.-According to a
Statement given out today al the
bureau Oe insular affairs. the Philip
pine import trade advanced nearly
5000 600 IN value during the nine
months ended March last, and a slight
falling off is shown in the exports as a
result of decreased shipments in copra
and sugar, although hemp and tobacco
are exported in larger amounts than
for the corresponding three-fourths OF
the previous year

Rice Countries Gain.
Except for those countries from
which rice is obtained, the statement
says that for the first time since
American occupation the United States
lead in the amount of merchandise sent
to the islands and that the outgoing
trade with the principal countries
shows a decline ia the value Of ship
ments to the United States, more than
500 600 of the loss being credited to
sugar exports and $500, 600 to hemp.
More than one half of the imports
consisted Of food and animals. while
The exports were chiefly agricultural
products, hemp exports amounting TO
SIC. 600, 600 in round numbers. TIE

increase in volume of business done
under the American flag, the amount
carried to the islands being 1855, or,

LONDON HAS DOUBTS.
Japs May Not Have Gone as Far as
Claimed.

London, Aug. 29.-The London papers
this morning have numerous special
dispatches from the far east, most Of
them dealing with the position at Port
Arthur 1t is pointed out that the Jap
anese tactics are very similar to those
adopted by General Oyama in 1894, but
that, granting the japanese have pene-
trated as far as represented, which is
considered doubtful, there are still for
micable forts TO be silenced before a
general assault is possible. Equal in
terest is displayed here in what is re-
Earded as the precarious position OF
General kurOpatkin's forces.
According to d dispatch 10 the Daily
Nail from kOupanktze, dated Aug 81,
Russian staff officers confess them
selves completely in the dark as to the
meaning of the japanese movements
and that consequently they have no
definite plan. Ten days ago, feeling
that Lao Yang would be surrounded.
General Kuropatkin began to draw his
troops nOrthward. There is no doubt,
says the correspondent, that the Rus
sian army is now completely at the
mercy OF the japanese whenever they
choose to attack.
The Lao Yang correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph, in a dispatch dated
Aug. IS, says that the japanese are
city, near which there is continuous
fighting
The rumor that the japanese lost
guns at Siaulins. the correspondent
says. turns out to be incorrect. The
correspondent continues.
The Japanese are reported to be
adopting a new method of night attack.
, They concentrate searchlights on the
point attacked, thus preventing the
garrison from seeing anything"
Describing recent fighting, the CORE
spondent says:
The shooting on both sides was
splendid, the Russians contesting ev-
cry inch OF the ground with all their
characteristic stubbornness. The Jap
anese attack from the direction of the
Lao river has not yet developed
Special dispatches from Shanghai re-
port that there is a hitch regarding the
cruiser Askold and the destroyer Gro
zovOi. The japanese government bav-
ing discovered, the dispatch Gays, that
the paroled crews of the Fariag and
kOrietz have been drafted into the Bal
tic feet. now insists that China shall
retain the crews OF the cruiser and the
destroyer until the end of the war
The Tien Tsin correspondent Of the
Standard, discussing the distance the
Japanese now are from Port Arthur,
declares that they are unable to APP
proach nearer the new town owing to
the fire from the Russian ships.
The japanese commander the CORE
spOndent says. has ordered that 10
shells be thrown into the town for the
sake OF the non-cGm batents- The cor
respondent adds that owing TO the ex-
/ tensive mine area the cooperation OF
the fleet is difficult
