In the Santa Cruz mountains the situa

the flames are now sweeping everything

devastating an area Of $4,000 acres.
From Tehama, Butte and other points

Panama, Sept. 10.-A crisis is at
hand in the affairs Of Panama. The
most important question affecting the
future OF the republic will be settled
during the next two weeks. Public
feeling has been aroused to fever pitch.
For time SO excited were the people
Of Panama that there. were open threats
OF another revolution and of a return
to the jurisdiction of Colombia. The
issue under discussion is the vital one
Of control of the ports or harbors at
the two ends! OF the canal. Panama says
that according to article 2 of the trea-
ty they are hers and must be under
her jurisdiction and sovereignty in or
del. to protect her revenues and foreign
trade.
The commission insists that article
2 has no such meaning and that it will
be impossible for the United States to
construct and control the canal unless
it has absolute authority over the two
entrances. The distrust and bitterness
toward the United States grew out of
the autocratic methods of the commits
sion. Mr.. Barrett undoubtedly pre-
vented an armed clash between the

situation is still critical. =.

Regarding rust, Mr.. Knaappen says:
'sFirst, the area affected has not been

out practically al of the province. south

rust has been overestimated. The
promised yield was so large before the
rust came that the average to the acre

the prospect and realization has caused
feeling of depression that is not iusti-
fed by the facts. But for rust, Mani
toba alone would have had 100000
bushels of wheat at the least, but an ay-
erage of fourteen bushels to the acre for
is better than twenty-five bushels in
some other years.
Gin the figures above, IS cents a

LUCK IN PORT ARTHUR

Workmen' attached to the st. Peters
burg torpedo factory have returned
from Port Arthur, where they were de-
tailed some time ago. They left the be-
sieged fortress Aug. 2, and give long, in
teresting accounts Of the conditions.
The defenses, they assert, were largely
augmented by the discovery of a Chin
csc store Of artillery, thirteen miles
from the fortress. IT consisted of 800
Krupp guns of large caliber, with from
300 to- 5000 rounds Of ammunition for
each piece. The guns and ammunition
store of rifles found were not so good
= The Japanese, it is related, made ar
rangeme nts with residents Of the subur-
ban Chinese village to furnish informa-
ton from the fortress by means Of a
pigeon post. The plan was divulged
by Cinnamon and the whole population,
forty villagers, was executed. ~;
Conspicuous gallantry was displayed
by two companies Of sailors who were
cut off in the hills by the Japanese and
were isolated two days. Their ammu-
milton soon ran out. Stones and bould-
ers were hurled at the heads of the at
tackers. Finally several old cannon
were dismounted and rolled down the
hills upon the heads of the attacking
column. Ultimately forty sailors out
Of 800 escaped. +.

WHY KUROPATKIN FAILED
Breakdown in Russian General s
Strategy Is Explained.

Tien-ling, Manchuria, Sept. 10.--The
breakdown of General Kuropatkin IS
strategy when he had withdrawn his
main army to the right bank Of the
Tai-tse river, after General Kuroki had
crossed the stream above Liao-yang, is
explained as follows: " 1920 y =
The movement was beautifully
planned. .Kuropatkin intended to en-
gage Kuroki, push a column up the
right bank and completely isolate him
from Generals Oku and Nodzu on tho
other side of the river. Only an acct
dent upset this, plan. General stakel-
'berg's corps, which was still on the left
bank at the extreme right, failed to
stand up against the superior force OF
the Japanese. When Stakelberg re-
ported that he was retreating, it seemed
to Kuropatkin that a portion Of his
army which he had faced eastward,
with the right resting on the river and
the left unprotected might be enveloped
by the Japanese in pursuing Stakel-
berg. He therefore drew off and re-
formed his front and the retreat from
Yen-tai began and continued the rest
of Sept. 3, the Russians reaching
Shak-he, Sept. 4.
The losses on both sides from Aug. Is
to Sept. 5 are estimated at from 10000
to 10000 killed or wounded. Many Of
tho kille dor wounded were left behind
in the Chinese corn.
The Japanese are experiencing great
difficulty in bringing up supplies Of am
munition.

provincial newspapers suggest TO- the
government that the betrothed wife of
Grown Prince Frederick William, the

affirm that such an association. would
