CHINESE WARMED BY
RUSSIANS TO BEWARE

ST. PETERSBURG. March 10.-Russia
has served notice on China that the latter
must not send troops beyond the great wall
and that she must exercise her influence
TO restrain the Chinese bandits, who are
partially under the control of Chinese off,
GERS, from interfering with railroad and
telegraph lines. A refusal to heed this
warning will be considered a breach of
neutrality.
PARIS. March 10-A report just received
here through official military channels de-
scribes the Chinese forces marching north
ward as being an undisciplined and almost
grotesque military organization, showing.
an entire absence OF equipment and train
ing As evidence of the unreliablity of
these forces the following occurrence is
cited A body OF Yuan Shi Kais cavalry
was paraded before French and German
military attaches. The former asked the
commander why the cavalry remained in
the towns and had no field maneuvers The
Chinese general answered: Because many
horse markets exist within the interior and
we know the cavalrymen would sell their
horses disband and leave us without
cavalry" The report gives this as show
ing the lack of reliability and unity of the
Chinese forces.
III is the impression here that the Chinese
are unable 10 give the Russians serious
trouble on the Manchuria border except by
pillaging and marrying, thus compelling the
maintenance OF a considerable Russian
force along the border.

VLADIVOSTOK FLEET
COULD NOT BE FOUND

vLADIVOSTOK, March 10.-The acting
chief of the staff to-day officially announced
that the reports of q sea fight between the
Russian and Japanese squadrons on Sun
day last are absolutely unfounded.
WASHINGTON, March 10-The Japanese
minister has received the following cable
gram from Toxic, dated to-day: "Vice Ad-
miral Kammura, chief OF a
division of the japanese fleet, made DEM
onstration to the northeast of the batteries
of Vladivostok on the 9Th instant and bonn
barded the object of observation for forty
minutes, beginning at p. m Some SOL
diers were seen at the batteries, but there
was no reply TO the bombardment On the
next morning the squadron secuted to the
bay of America and the bay of Streroku
but found nothing unusual AT noon the
squadron again made for the eastern end of
Vladivostok, but finding none of the enc
mys ships there, returned to Possiet bay to
discover if they were there, but did not
find them"
TOXIC, March 10.-The report of Vice
Admiral Kamimura, in command of the
Vladivostok naval expedition, reached the
Navy Department here early this morning
1t evidently came by way of Gensan, where
the squadron was expected to call upon it's
return. The report throws little additional
light on the movement except IL seems TO
show that the Russian squadron remained
safely within Vladivostok harbor, under
the protection of the shore batteries. Adj
miral Kamimura says that he bombarded
the harbor for forty-five minutes and be-
lies the fire was very effective. AT o'clock
on Sunday evening the japanese discerned
heavy volumes of smoke ascending over
the eastern mouth of the harbor and ii
was thought for a time that the Russians
were getting steam up 10 come out and
give battle, which was eagerly awaited but
the smoke gradually died away with no
appearance of any of the Russian ships.
The Japanese ships searched the surround
ing bays until noon on Monday. when they
again steamed back TO the eastern entrance
of Vladivostok harbor. The forts there did
trace was found Of the Russian squadron.
Admiral Kamimura then steamed south,
accommodating Possiet bay and other inlets
in that vicinity, but found no trace of the
| Russians. Admiral Kamimura does not
mention in his report anything concerning
! Russian operations in the vicinity OF
! Pnssiet bay or the Tumen river.

DEVASTATION IN PATH
OF PENNSYLVANIA FLOOD
Much Damage Done for Ninety
Five Miles Along the Sus-
quehanna River.
ICE GORGES GIVING WAY

WILKESBARRE, Pa, March 10-At 10
o'clock tonight the Susquehanna river was
at 24.9 feet above the low-water mark, fall
of nearly six inches last night. and the re-
ceding waters have left devastation in their
path from here to Sayre, Pa, distance of
ninety-five miles. There can as yet be no
real estimate of damage done, though it is
safe TO say the loss to railroad companies
mines and other industries in the Wyoming
valley alone Will reach 100000. The rail-
roads in this section are tonight working
bravely TO retrieve the damage done by the
flood and are getting u few trains moving
in the flooded district. d.
The gorge at Catawlssa broke late this
afternoon. and the gorged ice at Blooms
burg moved, causing the water TO drop
fourteen feet in an hour.
Great damage was done at Danville.
Three houses were entirely destroyed and
twenty-seven were moved from their foun-
dations. The Danville stove works lost all
their patterns and every department of the
large plant was inundated. Ten thousand
TASKS belonging TO the molding department
were carried away. Every store south of
the Lackawanna tracks was flooded. and in
some cases entire stocks of goods were de-
out light or water.
SUNBURY. Pa. March 1O.-The up-river
gorges in the Susquehanna broke this after
noon and are now passing down the river
without causing much damage. The only
serious damage to this place and vicinity
was the destruction last night of the North
cumberland bridge
At Danville the water rose until Main
street. the business thoroughfare, was en-
tirely flooded, causing much damage.

NONALLIED POWERS
MUST WAIT TEN YEARS

WASHINGTON, March 10-'rhe official
copy of the decision of The Hague tribunal
in the Venezuelan case has just been re-
ceived at the State Department The cost
to the United States for its share of the
expenses of the tribunal will amount to
$4,000. The government must also pay fees
OF its own special counsel in the case,
which amount to great deal more than
the above figure. The total of the claims
allowed against Venezuela is in the neigh
borhood of $4,000 900, about half of which
goes TO the allied powers, and until they
are paid the United States and associated
powers get nothing The estimated 30 per
cent. receipts of customs dues which Nene-
zuela is to apply to the payments of these
claims is about 100000 per annum, so that
IL may be nearly ten years, unless business
Increases, before the nonallied powers
would begin to receive their awards.

EASILY DISTANCED THE
FAST RUSSIAN CRUISER
Japan's New Warships Were
Chased by the Aurora in
the Red Sea.
CAPTAIN HILLS STORY

VICTORIA. B. c. March 1O.-The North
ern Pacific liner Olympia arrived from
Yokohama to-day. Among her passengers
was Captain Hill. who brought the Japanese
cruiser Nishin from Genoa to Yokohama.
and he gives a most interesting account
Of the trip, which included a race with
the Russian cruiser Aurora in the Red sea.
and the escape Of the Nishin and Kasuga
from possible capture by the Russian squad
ron.
Captain Hill says that when the two Jap
anese cruisers got through the Suez canal
they were closely followed by the Russian
squadron. which was evidently trying hard
to keep in close touch with them. The
Aurora. which enjoys the reputation Of
being one of the fastest vessels afoat. at
tempted to overhaul the two cruisers,
which, however. put on more steam and ran
away from her with the greatest ease.
From the firing up done on the Aurora it
was evident she meant business.
Capt. Hill had a long conversation with
the Japanese admirals when in Japan,
shortly before leaving, and they told him
that the main object of the Japanese opera
tons at present was Port Arthur. They
were to capture that place at any cost and
were confident of their ability to do so.
No effort, the japanese naval minister as
sured Capt. Hill, would be spared TO reduce
Port Arthur quickly possible. 1t
would then be refortified by the Japanese,
who would remain there instead of follow
ing the Russians into the wilds of Northern
Manchuria or Siberia. The intention also
is to reduce VladivOstok soon the ice
goes out.
In reply TO the question as to whether
the superb gunnery Of the Japanese war
ships was due to the presence of British
or American gunners aboard, Capt. Hill
said most emphatically that not a white
man is employed on any japanese war
snip in any capacity whatsoever. From the
bridge to the stoker every man is Japanese.
Regarding the foreign correspondents in
Japan, Capt. Hill said that the feeling
among them was intense. They were in
despair at the reticence of the government
and people, and had Sound it impossible to
obtain even scrap of authentic news As
far as Capt Hill was aware there was not
a foreign correspondent with either the
Japanese feet or army.

ICE PILED UP TWENTY
FEET ON THE TRACKS

HARRISBURG. Pa, March 1O.-Special
precautions will be taken 10 prevent out
break of smallpox among the flood suf-
ferers in the lowlands Many responses
have been received 10 the appeal of the
borough authorities of MiddletOwn for i'm
mediate aid for the people of the town who
were compelled to leave their homes by
high water and ice. Three thousand men
have been taken from Enola and other
points along the Pennsylvania where i'm
provements are being made 10 clear the
INSTRUCTED tracks on the Columbia division.
The gorged ice piled on the tracks has
reached height of twenty feet at many
points between Shocks Mills and Collins.
Between Chickies and Falmouth there are
points where the ice Is over the tracks for
a depth OF ten feet. This ice during the
past forty-eight hours has frozen into a
comparatively solid mass and IL will re-
quire several days 10 put the tracks in
normal condition.

MERELY Il CLASH OF
MOUNTED SCOUTS

TOXIC, March 10.-Russian and Japanese
mounted scouts met north of Ping-Yang
yesterday. After a brief engagement the
Russians retreated. No casualties are re-
ported on either side.
YIN-KOW, March 1O.-The concentration
of troops at the Russian strategical base
has resulted in much suffering among the
Chinese inhabitants, especially at Lao
Ying, where even private buildings have
been appropriated to accommodate the SOL
diers and thousands OF Chinese are conse-
quently without homes. Russian troops are
encamped at all the essential points along
the railroad.
LONDON March 10.-The Times pub
fishes a dispatch from Toxic saying the
ice I'm the Yalu river has begun to melt.
Japanese scouts have encountered forty
Cossacks, the correspondent continues, at
Kazan, fifty-eight miles north of Ping
Yang, on the road to WIFI.

ALLEGED ATTEMPTS TO
SELL SECRETS TO JAPAN
Reiteration of the Report that a
Frenchman Tried to Betray
Navy Department.
TWO WOMEN IMPLICATED

PARIS, March lin spite Of official
reticence and denlals from the Japanese le-
CATION here. IL is again affirmed that a non
commissioned officer named Martin, who
was employed in the Ministry Of Marine
and who is now under arrest attempted to
sell French naval secrets 10 naval at
tache at the japanese legation.
The discovery OF this alleged attempt
came as a result Of the accidental opening
OF a letter addressed TO the noncOmmis-
stoned officer by a naval captain of the
same name. This letter was from an in.
tsrmediary, Bat it indicated the principals
In the affair. 1t is alleged that several
women are implicated and that one of
them has confessed 1t appears now that
only one document is missing from the
Ministry Of Marine, but it is possible that
Martin photographed and replaced others
II is not likely that the information al
legged to have been stolen got beyond the
intermediary and it is said that the Jap
anese naval attache who is supposed 10
have been in direct communication with
Martin sailed for home on board one of the
cruisers which Japan purchased from Ar
gentine.
Prince ItchijO who succeeded the Jap
anese naval attache who returned home.
has Informed the Petit Journal that Mar
tin wrote him four days after his arrival
I'm Paris, proposing a meeting to commun-
icate important business. The prince was
indisposed ana in reply wrote and asked
Martin to state the nature of his business.
Martin answered that he was unable to
tell his business in a letter, and fixed an
other time and place for a meeting. This
appointment the prince kept, but Martin
had by that time been arrested and there
fore did not appear. II is said that the
documents accessible TO Martin related to
the possibility OF joint naval action on the
part of France and Russia.

PORT Ar1hm- Again Bombarded
by Heet of Fourteen Waryhlps

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE0
northward in Korea. this correspondent
continues, with the intention Of making
Wiju their defensive base.
A correspondent of the Daily Telegraph,
who was in Japan recently, wires from
Seoul that the Japanese are making steady
progress with their land movements The
roads are occupied by Japanese troops.
According to a Tien-Tsin correspondent
of the Standard, the Russians are with
drawing all their superfuous troops from
Port Arthur to Hardin and Kirin because
of the shortness of provisions and because
it is doubtful whether or not they would
be able to hold either Port Arthur or Nieu-
Chwang against a resolute attack.
The spirit of the Russian troops, who are
largely recruits, has been broken by starva-
ton, cold and harsh treatment from their
officers. The Russian losses on the Yalu
river are reported to reach total of 1000
men.
Cabling from Toxic, correspondent of
the Daily Telegraph says the Jill Shmpo
has received a communication from Picking
declaring that Great Britain and the United
States have protested against Russia sink
ing junks in the channel Of the Lao river
at Nieu-Chwang, on the ground that this
would prevent the egress of the warships
of these powers from the river
The Standard this morning publishes an
article in which the writer points out the
defenseless condition of the Amur river.
Russia never proflted from the experiences
of the Boxer outbreak, he says, and she has
no forts or gunboats on the river. It is
probable that when the ice disappears the
Japanese will send fleet of gunboats into
the river and make themselves felt along
its entire length.

GERMAN INTEREST IN
THE WAR IN THE EAST
DR.. Mills, Former President of
Earlham, Writes Impressions
of Germany and the Kaiser.
AN UNPRETENTIOUS KING

Special 70 the Indianapolis Journal.
RICHMOND, Ind, March 10.-Dr. ]. j.
Mills, ex-president of Earlham College, who
is spending a year in special study in Ber-
lin, Germany, writes to local friends as fol-
lows:
The war between Russia and Japan ex-
cites great interest here. 1t is certainly to
be hoped that nothing may occur to draw
Germany into the conflict What we have
seen OF the military spirit and strength OF
the German empire leaves no reason TO
doubt that In a war with another great
nation it would be found to be as nearly
invincible as a nation of Its population
could be made. 1t is literally true that the
German army is the German nation.
I'VE find many things TO commend in
TO the government of cities. Unquestiona-
bly,, municipal affairs are managed In Ber-
lin with far greater economy and regard for
the public welfare than is the case in most
American cities, and one hears far less
about the corruption OF politics
THE treatment of the soil, the use of fer
tilizers, the determination OF insects and the
propagation of forests have all been made
matters of the most scientific study here
for years, and the government takes meas
ures to make farmers intelligent in regard
to them. The fact, together with the native
industry and thrift of the people, has made
Germany a productive country. Contrary to
a prevalent notion in America, the neces-
saries of life in Berlin are about as high
as in Indiana cities"
Speaking of the Kaiser, DIR. Mills says;
AT the unwilling of two fine bronze tab
let's the other day the Kaiser attended the
ceremonies. accompanied by the Empress
and their two Oldest sons. We stood with
I'm a few feet of his carriage when he alight-
ed He was very deliberate and wholly un-
pretentious in manner. His brother-in-law
Il member Of the Reichstag, Is said TO be
strictly temperate and an earnest advocate
in public of total abstinence. The En-.
press also gives her hearty support TO the
movement Kaiser
in favor with the people of Germany. He
is regarded Il very benevolent man anC
is constantly making liberal OUTLAWS of hi:

JAPANESE MAY HAVE
MARCHED INTO 4 TRAP

ST. PETERSBURG, March 1O-The re-
ports that the Japanese have entered Man
churia west of the Yalu river and have
reached Feng-Huan-Cheng, on the Picking
road, at which is the Russian line of COM
munication TO the Yalu, cannot be con-
firmed. If the information proves true a
land engagement of some magnitude cam
not long be delayed, as the Russians have
a heavy force south of the line between
Liao-Hang and Mukden and they are also
occupying strong positions along the Yalu
A Japanese column between them would
be in desperate strait unless il moved by
the flank to take the Russians on the Japa-
nese movement from Korea.

as a special ambassador from the Emperor
of Japan to the Emperor of Korea, will be
able to allay the doubts and imaginary
dangers which are reported to be haunting
the Korean Emperor, who has not yet pub
lished the text of the Japanese Korean pro-
tocol in the official organ of Korea.
The Japanese government expects to real
iZe 100000 by increased taxation.
The Emperor and Empress have donated
$1,000 and the crown prince and crown prin-
cess 81 $50 for the relief of the widows and
orphans of japanese soldiers.
The Japanese journalists are rejoicing at
the friendly tone observed in the American
papers which have just been received in
this country.
Information obtained from private Korean
sources is to the effect that the Japanese
squadron has bombarded Vladivostok twice
since March 6.
