RESIGNS FROM COMMISSION

washington, Nov Is. - Frank j.
Hecker resigned as a member Of the
Panama canal commission because his
health will not permit him to serve
longer.
President Roosevelt has not consid-
cred yet the subject Of a successor To
Colonel Hecker on the commission.
Indeed. an intimation is given that it
may be some time before an announce
ment is made of his successor. Tho
president regards the appointment oe
a member of the commission as Of such
importance as to warrant very careful
consideration. Such a man as he de-
sires Is not easily to be obtained, and
as the preliminary work Of the com
mission is we'll in hand. there is no ab-
solute reason that the appointment
should be made Immediately. The pres
ident has not intimated to anybody
whether he has any man in mind for
the place or not.
There has been some speculation re-
garding the successor Of Col. Hecker,
and sevaral names have been suggest
ed, among them Senator Cockrell, OF
Missouri. and Judge Charles E. Ma
COON. who is now attorney of the COM
mission.

Fiohtinq every Niaht.

Chefoo. Nov. 1S.-Fighting at Port
Arthur has taken place nightly since
the Japanese began their general as
sault on October 26, according to Cap
tain Ronberg. a pilot who was pas
senger on the Russian torpedo boat
destroyer Rastoropny.
The Japanese trenches, the captain
says, are closest to the forts on Rib
lung and Keekwan mountains and to
other forts on the northeastern group.
The sharpshooters of both sides oc-
oupying the pits converse with each
other and frequently make individual
truces in order to borrow cigarettes or
to relieve their cramped limbs.
The Japanese are displaying great
energy in the construction of trenches
and the mounting Of guns All the rail. A.
road steamers belonging to the Rus
SLAMS. except the steel screw transport
Amur, have been sunk by Japanese
shells
The hospital ship Angara, formerly
a transport, has been sunk in shallow
water The patients are still on board
the ship and are comfortable.
The Japanese shells directed against
the harbor are fred with remarkable
accuracy.
Recently a sllk-clad Chlnaman, who
was seen travelling in a sampan, was
watched by the Russians. who OBJ
served that following the discharge Of
each shell, he placed a handkerchief
70 his nose and then into his left
pocket, occasionally varying these
movements. apparently thus signalling
the landing places of the shells. The
shells fell behind obstructions, which
fact prevented the Japanese obtaining
direct view Of their effect The China
man was hanged.
One day last week hospital ship
moved too near the battleships in the
harbor, whereupon the japanese
dropped small shells around her. with
the obvious purpose Of warning her
away. The ship took the hint, and
when she was outside the zone OF dan
ger large shells began falling near tho
battleships.

FOUR MEN ARE
ASPHYXIATED

known only as Gustave, also a painter
The men lay together in a heap, and
Bunnell noticing that the man on top
was alive, entered the trap to rescue
him, but became so weakened by the
gas that he could not life the body
to the floor, four feet above, and was
barely able to get out himself. He
staggered outside, but was unable to
attract any ones attention, and it was
some time before he recovered sufi-
ciently TO telephone for assistance.
When help finally arrived and the
gas was turned off so the men could
be taken out, all four were dead.
From their positions it is thought
that Bulmer went through the trap
first to fix the broken valve and was
overcome by the gas, and that in an
effort at rescue Chamberlain. Eids-
chun and Gustave followed and lost
their lives.
