PLANS GREAT BRITISH Army.
KitChener'S Reorganization Scheme
Greatly Enlarged.

London, Dec. 1.-The war Office is in
possession of the full details OF Lord
Kitchener's army reorganization
scheme. No secret is made of the fact
that particular mention has been paid
to points which world offer convenient
centers of Russian invasion in the
event of hostiltiies and In view of the
recent lmbroglio the original plan was
considerably extended.
The keynote of the reorganization,
which will entail expenditures to the
amount of $50,000,000, is to secure
through war training great army in
times of peace, and to place the troops
not only where they can obtain s.--'-
instructions, puC wnere rnelr presence
will be of permanent strategic value.
With this object in view Northern
India has been divided by parallel
lines into a number of areas with their
upper points converging on the from
tier, and their respective bases we'll
down in India. Were the order to mo-
bilize given seven or eight field forces,
each from $4,000 to 10000 strong,
could, in a few hours, be concentrated
on the borderland from east to west.

DEWEY NAY Be SENT.
United States Government Has Not
Been Officially Informed.

Washington, Nov. 30.--Gratifed by
the spirit which has animated the con-
tracing parties in agreeing to intrust
to a commission the ascertainment Of
the questions of TACT connected with
the North sea incident, the United
States government will cordially CO.
operate in the naming of the commits
sion by the designation Of one of its
high naval officers as member of that
body. The outcome is especially pleas
ing to the administration, following
as II does so closely on President
Roosevelts invitation to the powers Of
the world for second Hague confer.

The popular impression has been all
along that Admiral George Dewey, the
ranking officer in the American navy,
would be asked to be the Amer ican rel =

though Other names have also been
mentioned in connection with the ap-
pointment. A decision will be reached
promptly after the formal invitation
has been received from the Russian

This formal invitation has not yet
been received, the two governments in

AT AWFUL COST.
japanese Continue Their Attack on
Port Arthur.

London, Dec. l.--According to q
Toxic dispatch to the Standard, there
is an official rumor that the japan Ie
have hauled large caliber guns to the
TOP of 20S-Meter hill, whence their fire
has sweep of the whole harbor. This
report doubtless goes beyond the facts
but various dispatches indicate the
progress the Japanese are making in
the reduction OF Port Arthur. Japan
ese here explain the great importance
of the capture Of 20S-Meter hill, which,
besides giving command of the harbor,
will serve as a wide breach made Dy
the wedge the japanese had previously
driven in between the Etz group and
the Russians last retreat in the ravines
of Laotie mountain. They declare that
retreat to Laotie will be effectually cut
off, and it lie not unlikely that Laotie
will be simultaneously attacked in the
final assault.
Bennett Burleigh wires to the Daily
Telegraph from Chefoo that in the last
attack the Japanese lost 400 men in
one hours fighting. They claim to
have captured two more of the north
eastern forts and third, which is part
Of the West Kekwan fort. They assert,
Mr.. Burleigh adds, to have effected
lodgment at Pigeon bay, thus turning
the fort on 203-Meter hill, and that
they are now tunneling from the gorge
below Laotie hill, which they hope
first to damage and then rush. The
dispatch continues:
Desperate fighting is proceeding
daily, and the losses are admitted to be
excessive, but the Japanese insist that
Port Arthur must fall within 2l days"
The Morning Posts correspondent
az Shanghai telegraphs that wireless
communication has been re-established
between the Russian consulate at Che
foo and the Port Arthur garrison.

BUBONIC PLAGUE IN CHILL.
Consul WinaRS Charged with Giving
improper Bills of Health.

Lima, Peru, Nov. 90.--It is reported
here that Senor Martinez, the Chilean
minister to the United States, will re.
quest the State department at Wash
ington to cancel the authorization o!
Charles s. Winans, American consul at
Iquique, to take charge ad interim OF
the Peruvian consul at that place. The
request, it is said, will be founded on a
charge that Mr. Winans. has given i'm
proper bills of health to steamers leav-
ing Iquique.
While the prevalence of buboniC
plague has not been officially declared
in Chile, it is said that there are cases
that the Chilean government daily con-
ceals in order that steamers may not
omit touching at ports at which there
are no sanitary regulations. This al
legged action is considered great peril
to the Peruvian coast, Panama and the
entire country bo' dering on the South
Pacific ocean.

Herr Most Taken into Custody by
ST. Louis Police.

st. Louis, Nov. 30.--John Most,
alias Herr Most, anarchist OF New
York, was arrested at IL O'Clock to-
night after fruitless effort to hold q
meeting in st. Louis, and Is now pris-
oner at the -Four Courts, held for Chief
Kiely.
For ten days st. Louis detectives
have watched Most. He was to have
made speech in National hall on Sun.
day afternoon, November 20, but the
police prohibited II in view OF the ap-
preaching visit of President Roosevelt.
He remained in st. Louis until last
Wednesday, when it was announced he
had gone to Chicago. Instead, it is
declared he went across the river to
East st. Louis, where he remained at
the home Of friend until last night,
when he recrossed the river. With
the presence of Most in the city, it has
developed that an international con-
vention Of anarchists was held in st.
Louis for ten days just pricr to the ar
rival of President Roosevelt. Chief of
Police Kiely had man at the meeting
who made a complete report to him Of
the proceedings. 1t is declared that
the chief business transacted at the
convention, in addition to numerous
speeches on liberty and free speech,
was a resolution binding each delegate
to use his influence to bring about a
strike of all trades unions in the coun-
try next spring.

FIRE ON TOWN.
Strikers at ZeiqIer, Illinois, Send In
500 Shots.

Benton, H., Dec. l. - Zeigler was
fired upon last night from sundown to
daylight. 1t is intimated that no less
than 500 shots were fired at the town.
The town was completely surrounded,
and the firing came flom every quarter.
Response to this fusilade was made by
four Gatling guns placed at various
points about the mine buildings. AS
sistant Adjutant General Reece and the
Carbondale militia company arrived at
Zeigler today, and General Reece will
remain several days to investigate the
situation. 1t is thought that still
more troops will be brought.
Joseph Letter reached Zeigler today
with more miners from Chicago. Ex-
animation of the ground this morning
showed that the men who were firing
have powerful guns. They were sta
toned from one-half to thTee.quarters
of mile from the town. Almost a
bushel of empty shells OF every size
we're found in the woods.
A trail of blood was found on rail
feLce, and from this it is supposed at
least one person was wounded. Fur
ther trouble is anticipated.

OREGON NEWS OF INTEREST
LIBRARIES ron PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Light Tax Not BurdenSOme In Ore
gOn--COnVeniion of Officers.

Salem-Two departures in public
school work are proving very successful
wherever tried and promise to become
permanent features Of the public school
system. They are the common school
library, supported by special taxation.
and the convention OF school officers.
Four counties have levied the library
tax, amounting to 10 cents per capita
upon the school population. and it is
found that by this means the country
schools are provided with books as good
as those accessible to the pupils of town
schools.
"The tax, being one. tenth of ! mill,
is not felt" says Superintendent Alder
man, of Yamhill county, "and it puts
the best books where they do the most
good. The library law has now been
in operation two years and has given
complete Satisfaction. While the
amount that some of the small districts
get is small, yet it is in proportion to
the number Of pupils. / consider the
law a boon to the country boy and girl
and l think it ought to be made man
datory on the county courts"
Conventions of school officers have
been held this year at Baker City,
Dallas and McMinnville, at each of
which there was very full attendance
of school directors and clerks. Ad-
dresses we're made by Superintendent
Ackerman, by the county superintend-
ent and outside educational workers,
and those present held discussions of
topics Of general interest to school SSoffi-
GERS.
Consolidation Of schools and school
districts was one of the principal topics
discussed at these conventions and the
Of school boards learned the
plan and purpose Of this latest move for
the improvement of the rural schools.

committee on rivers and harbors held a
preliminary meeting today to prepare q

JAPANESE OVER THE HUN.
Rivers Will Soon Bear the weight
of Transport Wagons.

Toxic, Nov. 30.-News received from
the region OF the Shakhs indicates that
the japanese have been across the Hun
river. Further reports are to the
effect that the Russian outposts on the
right bank of the Shakhe were within
800 yards Of the japanese picket line.
Frequent exchange of gun fire occurred
and minor attacks are quite everyday
affairs. The rivers will soon be frozen
sufficiently to bear the weight of the
heavy transport wagons. The follow
ing report has been received from Field
Marshal 0yama:
"From the night of the 25th to the
morning Of the 26th bodies of the
enemy's infantry attacked US in the vi
cinity Of Signlutsu, Fagsig and Shaotu-
