Shanghai Natives Much Aroused.

Shanghai, Dec. 21.-The Chinaman
murdered by sailor from the Russian
cruiser Asokld, December Is, as the
result of a dispute over payment for
the hire of jinrikisha, was a native
of Ningpo, (an important treaty port
500 miles south of Shanghai) and the
affair has caused indignation among
the Ningpo community here, which is
$4,000 strong, The lower classes are
urging an attack on all Russians in
Shanghai, but they are restrained by
the Ningpo guild, which is counseling
patience.

Buys Million Pounds of Wool.

Enterprise--wool in this county has
begun to move. X. G. Mays, who is
buying for s. Koshland & Co., of San
Francisco, has closed contracts with
the sheepmen of this place for 1,000,-
900, pounds of wool. As a result
sheepmen and other business men are
in Il happy mood, rejoicing in the fact
that they have "cinch" on 10. cents
per pound for their 1905 wool clip.
On the sale just made Mr.. Mays turned
over to the sheepmen of this city $685.
600, this being one third of the con-
tract price of the wool. This amount
will relieve the sheepmen to great
extent, as money is always scarce with
them at this time Of year, and they are
compelled to borrow at high rate of
interest. Mr.. Mays expects to contract
the entire clip of the county, which
will amount to about 2 900, 900 pounds.

lowing to the stubborn resistance of
the enemy with his machine guns, our
operations were temporarily suspended.
Subsequently at o'clock in the
evening, General Samejima, command
ing the supports, advanced into the
easements and, encouraging his men,
threw his supports into the fighting
line in last brave charge.
'At ii so o'clock at night we COM
pletely occupied the fort and immedi-
ately engaged in the construction of de-
fensive works. Our occupation became
firmly assured today.
Before retiring the enemy exploded
four mines in the neighborhood of the
neck Of the fort.
"We captured FIVE nine-centimeter
field and two machine guns as well as
plenty of ammunition.
"The enemy left 40 or so dead. Our
casualties have not been investigated,
but they are not heavy"

Moscow, Dec. 21.-This city was the
scene of revolutionary demonstration
today from noon until nearly evening.
Probably 5000 persons actually partic-
ipated. Fortunately the agitators did
not succeed in drawing the working
men from the factories into the dis
turbances, and after many collisions
the police firing blank volleys and
charging with their sabers, the crowds
finally were dispersed.
Many were wounded, and more were
arrested. As far as known none of the
rioters were killed. One policeman is
reported fatally injured. Many on
both sides were roughly handled.
The authorities knew in advance
that trouble was impending, and many
houses along the Tverskaia street were
specially guarded. Several squadrons
of mounted gendarmes were concealed
in the courtyards of houses, ready for
an emergency.
