Losses Reported 6ut no wallets Are
Found,
People will carry large sums of
money in their pockets, and that losses
will follow is to be expected Many
losses of pocketbooks on show da y
were reported to the police yesterday,
but there was nothing dong in the
finding line. Few lost purses are ever
returned, particularly if they contained
a sum of money. Two or three purses,
thrown into the street, were found
yesterday, but the contents had been
transferred" before they were thus
discarded by the finder. There were no
robberiee, but simply losses from csre~
lessness.

A PROFOUND Secret.

IEONOuhh oC&A0
The point at which they are crossing
is. OF course, a profound secret, though
there is every reason to believe thai
Russia is fully informed OF 1t, and has
been thoroughly outwitted by hel
crafty foe. This view Is confirmed by
that fact that, while it is known that
the war office has received several tel
egrams from the east, containing news
of the war, it has not given out one
of them. Instead, it has caused to be
circulated a report that the japanese
have probably effected a crossing OF
the Yalu. but that this must not be
considered a reverse, since 1t never was
Russia's plan to prevent the crossing,
as she desires to lure them into a
churia for a decisive action
The Japanese Tactics.
II is regarded as certain tnat the
japanese will not be forced into action
after their army is owe the Yalu. They
will settle down and hold Kuropatkin
in check while another division lays
siege to Port Arthur and reduces 1t,
an event which will surely happen
soon, say strategists.
The rumor that the Japanese fleet is
after the V~ladivostok squadron is re-
garded as true. but there is no reason
10 believe it will catch the marauder-
The feet ran only $50 miles from its
harbor and then dashed back toward
port as soon as it sank one little mer-
| chant ship at Gensan. 1t was, thus,
we'll under way to cover before the
pursuit began.
Regarded as Absurd.
The story from Paris that it de-
stroyed four loaded troop ships is re-
garded as absurd o. the face OF II, as
it is known that the Japanese, notwita-
standing the bottl.ng up of he Por'
Arthur and Vladivostok fleets, lave
not taken any foolish risks and sen
their transports to sea unprotected
Every fleet of transports has been ac'
companied by a strong array OF a
