New York Sun Special Service.
Toxic, June 13.-True to his prom
Use that they should sail in the Sec
ond week of June to observe the
operations incident to the fall of Port
Arthur, General Fukushima, Saturday
night, gave a dinner in honor Of ten
newspaper correspondents and twelve
military attaches of foreign powers,
and yesterday started them for the
front from the Yokosuka naval station
on the Siberian railway steamer Man
churia captured by the Japanese in
the first week of the war. In his
speech General Fukushima said:
you are to be the guests of the
navy in visit to the naval seats. It
is extremely probable that you will
visit Talien-wan bay and the army
bases on the Liao-tung peninsula north
Of Port Arthur. The foreign cor
respondents, I hope, will arrive at
Port Arthur in time to be OF
service to their newspapers. The
gentlemen who are now to be guests
of the navy no doubt will be able to
! do Justice to the news that will soon
be within their province to report"
| In private conversation General
Fukushima promised that the foreign
correspondents would arrive at Port
Arthur not later than Sunday, June 10
"You will be a day or two ahead OF

Russian fleet should capture you.

FOES OF PARKER MEET TO-DAY
Factions Will Attempt to Pick q
Democratic Winner.

. I . p
New York Sun Special Service.
New York, June lathe factions
in the democratic party opposed to
the nomination Of Judge Parker as
semble in this city to-day to decide
on a course Of action. They have
made canvass of the situation, with
the purpose Of bringing about q. boom
for Mayor Mcclellan, but it is now
privately acknowledged that this is
a failure. They have now concluded
that Grover Cleveland is the only man
who can defeat Parker.
The claim is made that the requis-
lite one-third had been assured. A
recognized spokesman Of Tammany
Hall, stipulating that his name should
not be used said:
Parker Is beaten. He may have
lead in the race, but the men who
are opposing him have clinched and
copper-riveted a third Of the dele
gates who will never consent to his
nomination.. The Hearst and Bryan
votes, with the German strength and
a few scattering votes absolutely OPP
posed to Parker will do the trick.
A third of the convention can be
counted upon absolutely to oppose
Parker.
'The fight is absolutely unchanged
from Tammany's standpoint. we
stand just where we stood two weeks
ago, opposed to Parker, because OF
Hill, and prepared to go to st. Loxis
and tell the delegates that Parker
| cannot carry this state"
This combination expects to con-
troll the sixty-eight votes Of Pennsyl-
vania and the German strength, in.
Guiding Maryland, West Virginia AND

John r. Mclean, and the strength Of

McEwen's Report.
w. e. McEwen Of Duluth, secre-
| tary-treasurer, read a long annual re-

phases of the labor movement. He
said in part:
Eight years ago there were about sew
enty unions in the State Federation Of
Labor. To-day there are 26o, or an in
crease of almost 400 per cent. There
are fully one hundred unions in the state

that in time these can be reached, and
that the federation will some day be to

THREE CONCERNED IN ILLINOIS
Hearst, Harrison and Hopkins Forces
Battle for Control.

Springfield, ILL.,, June 13.-TheS ques-
ton of whether or not the Illinois DEL
egation to the democratic national
convention will be instructed for Will
liam R. Hearst depends largely upon
the outcome Of a three-cornered fac
tional fight for the control Of the
party organization in the state con-
vention which meets Tomorrow.
The angles to the struggle are made
up Of the adherents Of John 2. Hop
kins which means the existing party
Machine; the followers of Mayor Har-
rison, and those who favor William +.
Hearst for president. Mr.. Hearst has
no interest in the fight beyond secur-
ing an instructed delegation, but his
chief lieutenants are men who are
ousted from control Of the party ma
chine two years ago. They are max
Ing a strong battle for Hearst, but
they are striving at the same time to
regain their lost power.
The Harrison men are for an In
dorsement Of Congressman Williams
for president and that brings them up
against the Hearst people. They are
personally opposed to Hopkins and his
control of the state committee, which
leaves no hope Of a combination
against Hearst in that direction.
The Hopkins people object to Har.
rison for the same reason that he
opposes Cn0nl. he Will B0L 1lOtIlllE
that they can keep him out of. Hop.

state committee SO ardently desired
by the Hearst campaign managers ant
the fight in this direction Is becoming
exciting.

when the state committee meets. It

temporary chairman and Frank ]

The Hearst people claim the RICH
to name the chairman and desire Con
gresham Rainey for the place.
Harrison may combine with Hears
against Hopkins for the control Of tn
organization Of the convention.
The struggle for party control ha
become so keen that the nominatio
Of state officers has become a second
airy matter and nobody at present

MURDER BRAND ON

Gen. Bell Says Unionist Leaders

Cripple Creek, Col, June 1S.-Gen-
eral Bell has given out statement
concerning his action in deportlng

+ troubles growing out of the miners
btrike and the strike itself to the So
cialist element in the Western Fedora
ton of Miners, who, he says, cap
tured the organization two years ago.
He declares that the federation has
made unionism a secondary considera-
i Jon and that the organization, root
Ind branch, is being made a vehicle
for the promotion of socialism. The
leaders, he asserts, have not hesi-
tated to cause weak and willing
members to commit any crime to
strike terror to property owners or
workingmen who refuse to abide their

JAPANESE LOSE HEAVILY

Loss of Two BattaliOns

= Hai-cheng, Manchuria, June ID
A thanking movement Of the Japanese
around the Russian left from Feng-
huang-cheng June 9 was repulsed
with a loss of two whole battalions.
A large Japanese force moved out
In the morning along the Feng-
huang-cheng and Hai-cheng road.
The Russians had force strongly

east of Hai-cheng. The Japanese
We're preceded by two battalions, who
walked into the Russian ambuscade.
They received e. murderous rife and
artillery fire at close range and were
wiped out, only one or two escaping.
The main Japanese force, which
was greatly superior so the Russian
force, tried to outf1ank the Russians,
who drew off without losing man.
The Japanese closing in, found the
ravine vacant, save for their own
dead.
There are three battalions in each
Japanese infantry regiment, except
the bodyguard regiments, which have
two each. A Japanese regiment or

that in the two battalions reported

SOLUTION IN BADGER PUZZLE
Eastern Republicans Would Seat Both
Sets Of Delegates or Neither.

Sets of Delegates or Neither.
From The Journal Bureau Colorado Building,
Washington.
Washington, June 13.-Eastern, re-
publican opinion is leaning strongly
towards the idea that the national
committee, which meets in Chicago
Wednesday to arrange the temporary
roll call Of the national convention,
should proceed in the Wisconsin con-
test very carefully.
Many leaders here think the COM
mittee should either seat both sets Of
delegates at-large from Wisconsin, or
neither.
For the committee to undertake to
pass upon the merits of the contest
would be to imperil the state for
Roosevelt and stir up the factional
strife anew. Chairman Payne, 1t is
understood, regards this proposed So
luton as safe plan.
