The Republican State Committee OF
New York held meeting In New York
city on Saturday and fixed upon April II
as the date OF the State Convention.
Resolutions were passed endorsing Pre-
sident Roosevelt for the Presidential
nomination, pledgng him earnest sup
port. Thus the theory of serious party
opposition to Theodore Roosevelt In his
own state is effectuslly discredited.

A railroad on ice is not common
thing. Russia has constructed one as a
military necessity on the Siberian road
across Lake Bakal and the first com
plete train of % cars traversed the lake
March 1st. Heretofore trains were con
veyed across thu lake upon steamers
made for the purpose, and the breaking
of the ice to allow them to run was
mammoth undertaking.

The latest relating to the war in the
far east is to the effect that Japan is
concentrating large bodies of troops in
the vicinity of Pingyang, Corea. Large
forces are disembarking from transports
in near by ports, from which it is assum-
ed that a large battle is imminent In
northern Corea. The report of a naval
attack on Port Arthur on Monday last,
lacks confirmation. Russians are push
ing work on their battleships, night and
day. Heavy fighting may be expected
at an early day. Japan seems determin-
ed to capture Port Arthur.
