RUSSIA MAY NOT PROTEST
Russia's Interests in Thibet Are
Not Sufficient to Cause
Trouble.

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 22.-The Asso-
ciated Press learns that Russia's repre-
sentation to Great Britain in respect to
Thibet is based on the apparent difference
in the assurances given Count Bencken-
dorf, the Russian ambassador to Great
Britain, June 2, and the published terms
of the Anglo-Thibetan treaty.
1t is not expected in diplomatic quarters
that the incident will preciptate grave
complications, as Russia's interest in
Thibet is to a large extent academic. But
II Is important, from its point of view,
that Great Britain shall not have such
control over Chinese territory as to prae-
tically enable 1t to dictate what II shall
and shall not do I'm respect TO dealings
with foreign nations or their citizens.
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 22.-The Rus
sian protest against the Anglo-Thibetan
treaty, as forecasted In these dispatches
Tuesday, has been presented at Peking.
NJ. Lessar, the Russian minister. is under
stood to have called the attention of the
Chinese foreign board to the fact that
China would abandon It's suzerainty over
Thibet If 1t ratified the treaty, thus Great
ing a British protectorate. The Foreign
Office here has not yet received NJ Lessar's
report, but the dispatch from Peking to the
Morning Post of London, announcing that
China is not willing to ratify the treaty, is
believed to be the direct outcome of Rus
sia's protest.

MOB IN PURSUIT OF NEGRO
Attempt VIII BE Made to Lynch As
saiIant of Mrs. Boggan of
Ebensburg, PA.

JOHNSTOWN, Pa. Sept. 22-Crowds at
Patton and Ebensburg. excited with the
mob spirit. are hourly expecting the ap-
pearance Of Constable Jackson and depu-
ties, having in custody the negro who yes
terday near Patton, drove Mrs Thomas
Boggan, aged 30 yeas, at the point of re-
volver into the underbrush and there held
her prisoner from O'Clock in the morning
until I'm the afternoon. committing re-
peated assaults upon the helpless woman.
Reports came here from official sources
that a tai: yellow negro, answering in every
particular the description of Mrs Boggan's
assailant, had been caught at LaJose,
Clearfel9 county. just across the Cambria
county border Constable Jackson hurried
from Ebensburg to LaJose, where he was
due TO arrive at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
since that hour no word has been heard by
the public from the officer and the belief
is now general that Sheriff Lenhart has
directed Constable Jackson to bring the
prisoner to Ebensburg by an obscure route
and not to make his appearance at the jail
until late tonight when 1t is expected the
mob will have dispersed.
Mrs Boggan, who escaped from the negro
almost without clothes, is still In a serious
condition, but will recover She said today
she could Identify her assailant "among a
thousand" The purpose OF the offcials, It
is believed, is TO secretly land the prisoner
in the Ebensburg jail late tonight and
later take measures TO Identify.

EDITOR CONFESSES TO FRAUD
Says His Paper Has Been Run in
Interests of Gang of
Swindlers.

NEW YORK, Sept 22.-Much amusement
has been caused by the publication of an
open confession by the editor of monthly
paper posing as a financial authority. The
periodical has been freely circulated out

Gently was debarred from the mails
Postal inspectors were unable to find the
place of publication or to learn who was
responsible for the paper. The business
address was found to be a livery stable
in Washington and the paper is supposed
to have been printed here.
In the confession the editor says that
after having held his position three months
and being able to retire, his conscience
impelled him to state:
l have been in charge of this publication
in the interest of one of the most desperate
gangs Of swindlers and thieves that has
statement no word of truth has ever APP
peared in these columns. Upright and hon
est business men. as well as straight
forward and prosperous corporations, have
been maliciously attacked, with the sole
idea that money might be drawn from
them to the Golfers of the gang that has
given me employment.
Some of those who have been attacked
have been ruined thereby, and many thou
sands of dollars havs been lost by small
investors as a result.
The editor further declared the firms he
recommended were fraudulent and that
country people were thereby defrauded of
thousands of dollars.

received a report from the French minister
at Pekins saying that China has given the
most complete apology and reparation for
the attack of Chinese soldiers at Peking

eral comandlng the Chinese. who wrote the
minister an abject apology, while the Chi
nese captain commanding the assaultlng
soldiers made personal apology to Cap

demned the FIVE ringlraders to punish

SUMMARY OF WAR SITUATION
Japanese Reported to He slowly Adj
vancinE Upon Mukden-Quiet
at Port Arthur.

While the japanese are reported to be
slowly advancing upon Mukden. there has
been no fighting worthy of note between
the opposing armies under General Kouro-
patkin and Marquis Oyama. The latter
according to the military critics at St
Petersburg, is likely to pursue tactics quite
different from those essayed by the Japa
nese at Lao Yang and it is expected that
the attack will come on the Russian front
and TANKS rather than in the form OF
an enveloping movement
Definite information from Port Arthur
is very inconcusive. Russian spies allege
that a considerable force has been de-
tached from the japanese army which
captured Liao Yang and sent back to aid
in the operations against Port Arthur.
The formation of seven Russian rifle
brigades for service in the far east has
been ordered.

HUNGARY ExPELs TWO MORMoNs
Minister of Interior Says Propaganda
is Undesirable.

VIENNA, Sept 22.-Count Tisza, the
Hungarian minister Of the interior, has
rendered decision prohibiting Mormon
propaganda within Hungary upon the
ground that such a movement is undesir-
able both from the standpoints of state
policy and religion.
The immediate occasion for the decision
was the expulsion of two Mormon mis-
sionaries, Franklin Pingree and William
Weltzel, who came from Salt Lake City to
Temesvar eighteen months ago and at
tempted to organize a Mormon community
among Hungarians who formerly had re-
sided in Utah.
The two missionaries were promptly ex-
PEELED, whereupon their Hungarian friends
appealed to the minister Of the interior,
the result being the present decision.
