AT MINING CONGRESS.
Denver Reporter Throws Broadside
 Into the Distinguished Body.

The American Mining Congress final en headquarters. We trust that this step will mark the end of the state of suspended animation which hitherto has been the condition of that organi- zation.
 The congress, however, cannot rest on its oars. It must do something besides choosing a set of officers. Stating the case as gently as possible. the congress is not in good repute among the mining men generally. To gain the respect and support of the mining public radical methods must be adopted and the knife used freely to cut the crgan anization loose from the influences that have so sadly hampered it or the mining men will have noth- cause we believe that there is work for such body as the American min ing congress. Bona fide mining men will have nothing to do with the organization if it goes on in the same old rut that it has followed for the last seven or eight years. Yet, ve think. we speak on behalf of the industry generally when we say that the majority of mining men wish it we'll and that they hope it will be re- organized on such a basis that they can cooperate in its work.
 We Canot refrain from regretting the manner in which Lafe Pence of Lewiston, Idaho, saw fit to advance the claims of Denver for permanent leadquarters. It was-a disgusting ex- libition. The language used in refer ance to Utah men and women was unbecoming, not to say course.
 ur opinion the officers of the congress should take such steps as would prevent in future any danger of such remarks being made to it as MT. Pence saw fit to present to the congress at Portland. Denver itself wants no such advocacy and there is a general feeling of indignation among such citizens of Denver as we have met that the men and women of Utah should have been insulted in their name.

Raised Hair.-A Mexican boy, grip ping a bundle in one hand and dss- perately clinging to the hand rail of an outgoing passenger coach in the E. P. & s. W. yard last evening, caused the hair of spectators to take a raise to- ward the edges. The boy was try ing 10 pull himself on the train. IL was apparent that he could not make it. Just ahead a line of ore cars stood on the track alongside the main line. It was not apparent how the boy was going to escape being hurled against these and then being in all probability shot back under the wheels of the passenger train. A warning shout reached him just in the nick of time. With more dexterity than seemed possible under the circum- stances, the youngster let go his hold on the car and dropped safely onto his feet He kept the package intact in his hand all the time.

RUSSIANS INTEND
TO RETIRE BEFORE
ENEMY'S ADVANCE

YINKOW, March 14.-The local
Russian authorities are apparently in
censed and manifestly much annoyed
at the solicitious inquiries of the COM
manders of foreign gunboats regard
ing the projected blocking of the Lao
River before the arrival of the Jap
anese, which latter event is regarded
as a foregone conclusion. Although
the blocking of the Lao and also the
defense of the settlement and native
town are regarded as unattainable, it
is certain that an important disposi-
defense plan have already been made
The arrival of General Kondratovitch
a few days ago, however, arrested the
arrangements and threatened to cause
the abandonment of the original inten-
ton.
The highest Russian opinion obtain
able at Port Arthur and Newchwang
admits the Governments intention to
fall back indefinitely until the mob
ilization of 100000 troops for the pur-
pose of assaulting and opposing the
Japanese and probably 100000 more
to oppose the Chinese.
The same opinion asserts that Vice
Admiral Makaroff will fight hard. He
is determined to weaken the enemy at
any cost and make the operation of
the Baltic Sea fleet in the Far East
feasible, though it may be necessary
to fight without the Pallada, the Ce-
sarevitch and the Retvizan, which, it
is admitted, cannot be fully repaired
within six months. On account of the
uncertainty of the success of the
scheme of constructing a mud dock
in which to repair the Cesarevitch and
Retvizan, naval experts allow a full
year for the repair work.
The San Francisco call., 1904-03-15

LONDON, March 15.-A correspond
ent OF the Daily Mail at Newchwang
says that after the removal of the
battleship Retvizan four Russian
steamships-the Harbin, the Hailar,
the Ninguta and the Sungari-were
anchored at the mouth of the entrance
of Port Arthur in proper position and
sunk. leaving only a small channel
available, Vice Admiral Makaroff hav-
ing previously ordered the fhole fleet
to remain outside with steam up, econ
omy in coal being unnecessary.
This dispatch. which is prominently
displayed by the Daily Mail, and
which, the correspondent says. is ION
Russian information" is. if true. news
of the first Importance. confirming the
idea that Vice Admiral Makaroff will
adopt the offensive and make a des-
perate attempt to bring together Rus
sias scattered naval forces or en-
deavor to infiict damage upon the Jap
anese AMY. The story must, how
ever, be viewed cautiously, the only
approach of confirmation from any
other quarter being in a dispatch from
a correspondent of the Daily Tele-
graph at Yinkow. which merely says:
''Vice Admiral Makaroff has issued
orders to the effect that the saving
of coal is unnecessary but that the
big gun ammunition in the forts must
not be wasted. Evidently this ammu
milton is running short"
The Daily Telegraph's Toxic CORES

it is beginning to be believed that it is

WEIRD FUNERAL
OF THE DOWAGER
QUEEN OF KOREA

SEOUL, March 14.-The funeral Of
the Queen Dowager, who died in jan
uary, was held here to-day. The bier
was placed on a catafaIque at the
west gate of the city, where United
States Minister Allen and other dip
lomats gathered at $50 o'clock this
morning.
1t was a weird scene. Thousands Of
lantern bearers, soldiery and the pop
ulace in white dresses gathered around
a bonfire until daybreak. The EN-
peror. attired in straw colored robes
and headdress, arrived at s o'clock and
performed his devotions over the body
within a canvas pavilion. The pro-
cession then started for the tomb, eight
miles outside the city, the bands play
ing funeral dirges.
The procession was a couple of miles
long and full of Oriental color. 1t was
headed by native police, followed by
lantern bearers and spearsmen in fan
tastic attire, carrying banners and
huge paper horses. Then came two
biers, gorgeously colored, and sur
mounted by dragons heads. They were
borne on the shoulders of a hundred
men. there being 200 pallbearers. The
biers were surrounded by eunuchs and
court functionaries. The first bier was
empty, being intended to cheat the
devil.
The populace crowded the streets and
covered the roofs to witness the pa
geant. After the start of the pro-
cession the Emperor received the for
eign diplomats and the japanese Min
lister, being the senior member, pre-
sented the condolences of the corps.
