Port Arthur Is Strong.

St. Petersburg. May 24.-Considera-
BILE optimism is felt here at the evil
dent difficulties with which the Japan
ese are meeting and the success of the
Russian forces in preventing the close
investment of Port Arthur, which is
known to be receiving quantities of
fresh provisions from the Chinese.
1t is understood here that the Japan
ese propose rushing matters by storm
ing Port Arthur After having first
said they were prepared to sacrifice
1000 troops in doing SO. the japanese
now raise the number to 10000.
Military experts, remembering that
1t cost Russia many more men to as
. sault Plevna, the defences OF which
were inferior to those of Port Arthur,
say that the Japanese will not carry IL
at cost of twice tina. number.
Port Arthur is provided with every
defensive method which the ingenuity
of man has been able to devise. from
the old-fashioned moat to the modern
barbed wired entanglements. The most
complicated kind of pitfalls and mines
abound in all the passable approaches.
What is considered much more seri-
Gus in military circles is the rapid
strengthening of the right flank of
General Kuroki's army. 1t is estima-
ted. in spite of reports Pf retirement.
that the Japanese will attack before
many days have passed by striking at
the center and right wing simutane-
ously.
Admiral Skryjloff's arrival at vladi-
vostok indicates that surely something
will soon be done by the Russian feet
there.

Events at Toxic.

Toxic. May 24-The Japanese land
ed at Takushan report having been en-
gagged in two scouting skirmishes dur
ing which ten Russians were. killed. In
the first two affairs two Russians were
captured, and in the other General Ku-
roki reports the capture of an officer
and a man caught making a reconnais-
sance in the rear of Kuroki's army.
Three splendid horses captured at
the Yalu battle by Kuroki and present
ed to the Emperor. reached Toxic yes
terday. They were taken to the palace
where they were inspected. Two OF
them are Russian bred and the other is
Arabian.
The Empress of Japan, the court la-
dies and the ladies' of the foreign lega-
tions visited the Red Cross hospital
here this morning and inspected the
arrangements and talked with a few
wounded and sick soldiers.

connection with Red Cross work, was

kuropatkin's Report.

st. Petersburg, May 24.-The follow
ing dispatch, dated May %, from Cen
eral Kuropatkin. has been received by
Emperor Nicholas:
'All is quiet in the direction of the
Fin Chou Ling mountains. 1t is re-
ported from Stu Yen that on May 21st
a Japanese force consisting altogether
of about one regiment of infantry and
two regiments of cavalry of the guard
and of the line, was observed moving
on the broad. front from Harbin toward
Salitzaiputz.
During the night of May 2O-21 one
of our sotnias. returning from Taku-
shan to Loua Mao and Khondou Kan.
discovered detachment of Japanese
infantry bivouacing at Sitkhoutchind-
"a, ten miles northwest of TalSushan.
The Japanese opened fire on our
troops.
There is no change in the situation
along the shore Of the Lao Tung pen
insula."
The general staff says the reoccupa-
ton of New Chwang by the Russians
in force is due to the change in the
situation produced by the loss of the
Japanese ships last week. General Ku-
ropatSin originally had decided to
abandon the town. because of the Jap
anese complete mastery of the sea,
but the losses sustained by Admiral
Togo's fleet SO change the relative
strength of the two fleets that 1t is
believed to render unsafe the dispatch

RAILWAY LINES
WILL GO TO THE soNDHoLDERs,
Denver & Southwestern companyfs
Cripple Creek Railway System
Will Be Taken in by Holders
Of Mortgage Bonds.

New York, May 24.-The reorganiza-
ton committee OF the Denver & South
western railroad has decided to aban-
don the plan proposed last October and
a circular will be distributed to gen.
tral mortgage bondholders authorizing
an amended plan. This amendment ia
severe and is in reality foreclosure
of the general mortgage. although on
account of the character of the pledge
IL will be unnecessary to appoint re-
cefver for the property or go into
court to bring about the foreclosure.
The proposed plan wipes out the
present stock of the company and gives
the united securities to general mort,
gage bondholders. A new company VIII
be Incorporated. with no funded debt
and its stock, aggregating $500. 600.
will be given pro rata to the present
holders of general mortgage bonds who
assent to the plan. OF the present gen.
eral mortgage bonds there are out
standing s4.556.000.
The original plan, in order to be-
come operative. required the assent OF
all the outstanding bonds. The diff
Guilty in getting in all the bonds was
apparent from the time the plan was
ntst suggested. fOr Inlb redsOu INC
period for depositing securities was ex-
tended. All the bonds, with the excep-
ton of s124,OO0. were deposited with
the committee.
1t became apparent that some of the
bonds that were being held out would
not be deposited unless they were pur-
chased for cash by the organization
committee. This the company was un-
willing to do and the amended plan
was devised which can be practically
consummated without the assistance of
the demurring bonds.
1t is owing to the fact that the Dem
ver & Southwestern general mortgage
is in reality a collateral trust mortgage
that the instrument can be foreclosed
without recourse to the courts. Instead
of treading the customary legal paths
the trustee of the general mortgage
will simply offer for sale at auction the
stocks and bonds deposited as security
for the general mortgage bonds.
These securities compose the units
which were welded together in order to
from the Denver & Southwestern in
1899, which controlled all the outlets
from the gold fields of Cripple Creek
until the Colorado Springs & Cripple
Creek District Railroad Company was
organized by the mine owners.

Rumer of Disastrous Assault.

st. Petersburg May 24.-It is report

has received message from the Rus

Japanese have made a land attack on
Port Arthur and that in doing so they
lost $4,000 men killed or wounded.

At yesterdays session of the Confer
ence for Education in the South, in Biz
mingham, Ala. President Robert G. Og-
den, of New York, was unanimous
" reelected. The old board also
was reelected. The next place of

taxation for schools was the chief topic
of discussion. Among the speakers were
Congressman Bowie, Of Alabama III.
O. Murfee, of Marion, Ala, Prof. Wal
ter II. Hill, chancellor of the University
Of Georgia, and Bishop Lawrence OF
Massachusetts. All the speakers plead
ed for more general recognition of this
method of providing funds for the pub
lie schools. Bishop Lawrence received a
great ovation when he detailed his i'm
pressions of The South. He said that
northern newspaper headlines were mis-
leading, that men in the North were
taught 70 believe thatthe South was law
less aud loved lynching. He declared
that he had found that the southern peo-
pie were as jealous in the enforcement
OF the law as the northern people and
liked the negro as well, il not better.
