st. Petersburg, April 8.-While the

position, selected by General Kuro-
patkin near -Fenghuangcheng. it is be
lieved the Russians intend to hold out

river is 500 fathoms wide and at Yon-

islands. whence the Russian sharp
shooters can harrass the japanese
advance.
The Russians have entrenched them
selves heavily near Haicheng to block
the progress of the Japanese in case
they succeed in landing at the head
of the Locating gulf.

TRAGEDIES IN NEW YORK.
Suicide and Accident on a Crowd ed
Thorouahfare


New York, April S.-Two tragedies
which have occurred within half an
hour of each other at Broadway and
Thirty-fourth street caused much eX
citement among persons viewing the
night scenes on the most frequented
corner of New York after dark
On the sidewalk before the aban-
doned Broadway tabernacle youth
was noticed pacing back and forth,
weeping. Curious crowds stopped to
gaze at the young man. who, however,
spoke TO none. For nearly half an
hour he walked on in front of the old
church and then, in view of hundreds,
suddenly drew a vial of carbolic acid
from his pocket. drank the contents
and fell in convulsions, He was car
ried into d drug store, but could not
be saved. He was identified as a
messenger who had been thrown out
of work and apparently had eaten
nothing In two days.
Excitement over the suicide had just
begun to subside when man fell
from the third floor wii,ow of build
ing close By. lie strt.e til 4,icSali,
on his head and was carried into the
same drug store. where he died in a
few minutes.
The unfortunate man was a rubber
stamp manufacturer who lived in the
building from which he fell. After re-
turning from the street, where he
aided the dying messenger, he had de-
termined to clean the windows and
lost his balance.

RETREAT PROBABLY CUT OFF.
Cossacks Defeated at Choneju Are Re.
ported Missing.

Newchwang, April S.-The Russians
here are anxious to know the fate of
General Mishtchenko's Cossacks, who
were defeated on March 2S at Chongju.
They were heard from the next day
In two detachments, making for the
Masandong road in an attempt to cut
northeast through the Yalu valley, and,
II successful, ought to have crossed
the river between Wiju and Sekuchan
on Thursday or Friday of last week.
1t is probable they were unable to go
through as planned, because of the
Japanese movement southwest from
kusong, which was then so well ad-
vanced that the Russians must have
been forced into the mountains direct
" south of Win. Ii is now believed
here that they were unable to make
the Yalu river, In which event there
will be little chance for them to es-
cape a fight or capture.
The Japanese will not be opposed
at the mouth of the Yalu, the Russian
military board having decided that a
successful defense of the northwest
bank would be impossible against the
Japanese navy. Since Thursday of
last week the enemy's gunboats have
been patrolling the river north, within
five miles of AntIng. They have three
gunboats and two small cruisers pro-
tecting the mouth of the Yalu.

GER TRAINS ON CHICAGO
AND NORTHWESTE
THREE KILLED AND MANY INJURED
RED MEN IN SPECIAL CAR THE
ONLY ONES WHO SUFFERED
IN THE DISASTER.

haywood, H., April 8-Sixtythree
Indians in a special car en- route to
New York for show purposes were
run into by mail train two miles
west of here during a fog. Three of
the Indians were instantly killed,
three were fatally injured and twenty
others were more or less seriously
hurt. The Indians who We're not pinned
in the wreck fled in a panic across
the prairie. The dead are Killed
Head, skull crushed; Phillip Irontail,
Jr., body crushed; Thomas Comelast,
body crushed. The fatally injured are
Big Chief White Horse, body crushed
and legs broken; Luther Standing
Bear, crushed about body and head;
Annie Goosefaee, crushed about body.
The trains which collided were the
Oregon express and the fast mail on
the Chicago and Northwestern rail-
way. The express train was run into
by the mail train. Both trains were
eastbound.
Physicians were promptly hurried
to the scene and as soon as possible
the injured were taken TO haywood
and Chicago. All the victims of the
wreck were Indians.
The coach containing the Indians
was light day car. The rear end of
the coach ahead was also damaged.
After the collision the passengers
in the other coaches of the two trains
hurried to the rescue and after hard
struggle pulled the injured Indians
from beneath the wreckage. Chief
White Horse, in charge of the Indians
on the train, was fatally injured. The
bodies of the Indians who had been
killed outright were laid on the prairie
beside the track, Chief White Horse
being carried with them. He said he
Know That Death Was Near
and requested that he be placed near
his dead companions The chief was
pronped up and sat stoically while
physicians worked over his injuries
He smoked a pipe quietly and showed
no signs of the pain he must have been
suffering. One by one the other in
jured Indians were slowly taken from
the splintered car and placed upon the
ground near their dying chief and
dead comrades.
A moment after the crash there was
not sound from the i'll fated coach.
Then one by one those surviving the
crash regained in part their senses
and began shouting for aid. A terri
flying series of wild yells from the In
dians were heard by the passengers.
jumping from each side of the cars
ahead.
After the bodies of the dead had
been removed from the wreckage and
placed in a row on the prairie, an in
cident. probably unparalleled in rail
way records, took place. The unin-
jured among the Indians gathered
about and, led by Chief Iron Tail.
solemnly chanted the Indian death
song"
1t was a pitiable sight TO see the
Indians lying Oh the ground, clad in
their native garments. with their red
blankets dyed deeper by the blood of
their friends The men were men of
splendid physique and the exhibition
of calm nerve on the part of White
Horse was good example of that of
the other members of the Indian party.
The Indians were from a reservation
near Rushville, Neb, and their journey
East was primarily for show purposes
at New York.
