MANY RUSSIANS DESERTERs.
Reservists Seek 70 Avoid Being Sent 70
the Far East.

Special Cable Despatch TO THE Sum-
LONDON, Sept. 27.--Aocording to the
Times's Russian correspondence the num-
Der Of deserters from the lower ranks Of
the army are enormous. The police are
overwhelmed with the work Of trying to
track them.
Desertion is becoming 40 general that It
Is hardly possible to cope with 1t. Men
inscribed in one military district will be
found living from hand to mouth, and with
out passports, hundreds OF miles away,
hoping that their existence will be forgotten.
The reservists are doing their utmost
to avoid being sent to Manohuria. Even
some Of the army officers are not inclined
to 20 to the Far East, and say 30 openly.
The correspondent says it seems that
an important part Of Russia q plan Of cam
paiRn was to send Gen. Linevitch from vladi-
vostok into Corea to get between the jap
anese northern army and the beeiegers OF
Port Arthur, as Gen. Sherman got behind
the Confederates.
He quotes an article from the Moscow
Viedomnsti showing that Gen. Linievitch's
expedition was complete failure owing
to the Japanese getting command Of the
sea, whence they would have been able TO
attack Gen. Linievitch's rear. Thus the
plan had to be abandoned.
The Timss remarks that this Ia almost
the first allusion In the Russian press to the
Japanese command Of the sea.

GERMAN ATTACHE HONORED.
Mikado Gives Dinner for the Kaiser's
Representative.

Special Coble Dsspatch 10 TIE Sun.
TOXIC, Sept. 2s-The Emperor and
Empress gave a dinner tonight in honor
OF Prince Carl Anton of Hohenzollern, the
Kaiser's representative with the Japanese
army The guests included the Elder
Statesmen, members OF the Cabinet, military
and naval officers and court dignitaries.
The press extends a hearty welcome to the
Prince 1t considers that the Kaiser's
sending him to view the operations at the
front IL evidence of friendly relations be-
tween the two countries.
A despatch from the Japanese Consul,
at Sydney, n. s. W, announces that the
North German Lloyd Steamship Company
is about to start a service to japan. This
is apparently another German attempt to
make an inroad on Great Britain's carry
ing trade.
1t IL rumored that Russia is trying to buy
foreign journals published in japan.
The Jiji Shimpo notes that Japan's foreign
trade during the first eight months Of 1904
was 10 900 900 yen in excess OF the cor
responding period last year. The excess
in exports was 1900 900 yen. Usually
the imports are larger than the exports.
exceeding them by one-half. 1t 10 probable
that the normal ratio will be established
by the end Of the year. The paper explains
the increase by the facts that domestic in
dustries have not been affected by the
war, and that Japan's control Of the sea
Is nearly complete. Furthermore. the rice
crop Is rs per cent. larger than usual, which
Is partly due to the fact that this season
an increased area was under cultivation.
The Asahi remarks upon the phenomenon
that the currency has not been e1 banded.
despite the fact that the loans Of all de-
scriptions since the outbreak Of the war
amount to SOC, 900 900 yen. There has been
no advance in prices, except for rice and
barley, which have been bought largely by
the Government. The AsaM attributes the
good financial condition TO the cautious
policy Of the Government and the care
iulness Of the people In guarding every
cent. The exchequer notes issued by the
Government relieve the local banks Of their
surfeit OF farmers deposits.

More than 100 members of the Inter-

Consul of that country stationed In New
York.
A committee OF sixty received the visitors,
and Mayor Mcclellan welcomed them and
shook the hand of each. A colored quartet
sang national airs.
At $50 o'clock. after all had been intro
duced, the assembly was called to order
by President Wheeler II. Peckham
OF the City Club. The gavel he used in
calling the assembly to order had figured
in many previous HISTORIC catherine, IN
ton Of Washington as President OF the
United States and the o00th anniversary
Of the Swiss Confederation. Then came
Mayor Mcclellan, who welcomed the dele
gates on behalf of the citizens Of New York.
The Mayor said;

Special Cable Despateh to THE SUN.
LONDON, Sept. 27.-The Right Hon.
George Wyndham. Chief Secretary for
Ireland, writes to the Times criticising the
report OF Lord Dunraven's Irish Reform
Association. especially the recommends
ton that statutory legislative assembly
for Ireland be instituted. Mr.. Wyndham
says:
without reserve or qualification the
Unionist Government is opposed to the
multiplication Of legislative bodies within
the United Kingdom, whether in pursuance
Of the policy generally known as home rule
for Ireland or In pursuance Of the policy
known as home rule for all round"
Discussing the proposals dealing with
Irish finance, Mr.. Wyndham comes to the
conclusion that the destruction Of the
existing departments charged with the
administration Of Irish finance to mako
way for the construction OF some other
body vaguely outlined is q matter for
speculation, proper enough for private
individuals, but outside the sphere Of
practical politics.
Mr.. Wyndham does not question the sim
certify Of the association. He recognizes
the honesty of its ideals and aspirations, but
be says that the chances Of their realization
are prejudiced, not enhanced, when they
are confused with any plan, however ten
tative. for the multiplication Of Legislative
assemblies within the limits Of tbs United
Kingdom. To any such plan, however ooE,-
tracted in scope and vague in feature, the
Unionist party Ii opposed.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. Sept. 2e.-Gov. Cum
ningham this afternoon issued an order
TO the Adjutant to muster out the Hunts
vile military company, which failed to
protect the life Of Horace Naples, a negro
who was lynched by mob in that city on
Sept. Z. The order was given upon the
recommendation of the military court Of
inquiry ordered by the Governor to inves-
tigate why the Huntsville company failed
TO do It's duty on that occasion. This
court found THAT the combined forces
evidence introduced permitted life to
be taken unlawfully by a mob under cir
cumstanoes which justify US In concluding
that the same could have been prevented,
thereby rejecting serious disoredit upon
the military called into service upon that
occasion"
The court found that Capt r. X. l.. Hays
and Lieut.. Hay were entirely ignorant OF
their duties, that on the night in question
there was an entire lack Of concerted effort
or plan looking to the protection OF the
Jail or prisoners, that there was no order
Issued to load or Are, and that when the
attack occurred the soldiers were sitting
on the steps and curbing eating supper.
