is thought probable that no final deter.
mination will be reached until close
upon the beginning of the second days
session, if indeed the adherents of the
several leading candidates do not find
it necessary eventually to try out the
strength of their forces in one or more
ballots upon the floor of the conven-
ton. 1t is the general impression,
however, that agreements will be
reached and the question of the nomi-
nation for the governorship settled in
conference, so that only one name
shall be presented to the convention
and the nomination be unanimously
made on the first ballot.
There is no diminution in the under
current of feeling which has been in
evidence since the delegates began to
becomes necessary, the convention
will result in the nomination of Ed
ward M. Shepard of Brooklyn. The be-
lief is prevalent that Mr. Shepard has
the support of the national leaders,
and this belief gives strength to the
Shepard movement, although no one
in authority will admit that other than
state considerations will influence the
action of the convention. Those who
hold to Mr.. Shepard's nomination
think that final conference will elimi-
nate all other candidates.

Going to the Worlds Fair.

(From the Columbus, o., Citizen.)
Is it worth while to 60 to st. Louis
to have "look in' at the great Ex-
position? That is a question that a
good many people have asked them
selves and others. A. B. Farquhar,
one Of the most prominent manufac-
turers and certainly one of the most
intelligent public men in Pennsyl-
vania, after a trip there, declares that
he would rather make second visit
to ST. Louis than to go to Europe.
He says:
Zone Of my impecunious friends
asked whether a trip to the st. Louis
Exposition was worth the cost Of
making. I summarily replied, with
out hesitation or misgiving: 1T would
be worth making if you had to walk
the whole distance, and if you had
to deny yourself vacation for years
to come in order to make it. My
friend is going to the Exposition, and
will be prepared to thank me for my
good advice; but there are hundreds
of thousands of others in our eastern
States no better able than he to real
ize, from anything that has come
under their notice. the stupendous
greatness of what has been collected
there for them to see. To call their
attention to an opportunity so unpar-
alleled is doing real public serv-

The third edition of William Dud-

relating to the causes of the pres
ent war in the Far East. The first
edition was received with great incre-
dulity, the critics making sarcastic

tons of the Russians to universal do
minion.. Since that time not a few
things have happened to Silence the
DIRECTORS, and to compel respect for
the conclusions reached by Mr..
Foulke The author regards as Ger
tain a coming conflict between the
Slav and the Saxon. He considers
the vast territory of Russia, which
is one-siyth of the entire world, the
nature of its immense population,
with its instinct to emigrate and
found colonies; the character of her
political institutions, military au-
tocracy unique among the world pow
ers; her conquests and ggressions;
her designs upon China, Manchuria
and Korea; the history of Russia,
which shows a growth Of all that we
detest; in short, he considers the Mus
covite empire in relation to the Gar
gantuan meal that she proposes, he
believes, to make Of the rest of the
universe. His is timely and
thought provoking book.

The only point assured by the days

The Russian war Office admits that
some worry is caused by the fact that
Kuropatkin's scouts have been unable
to locate Kuroki's main army, which
comprises the extreme Japanese right.
1t is intimated that this condition may

FOUR DAYS FIERCE FIGHTING
Japanese Losses at Port Arthur Esti.
mated at 2O,OOO

Chefoo, Oct Am official report
from General Stoessel, dated Sept. %,
has reached Chefoo, confirming a pre-
yious report Of the repulse of the jap
anese attack on Port Arthur which
began Sept. 19 and ended Sept. %.
The fighting was OF an extremely Sc
we're character.
From semi-official sources it Is
learned that the attack began on the
18th along the whole line and lasted
four days, various positions changing
hands many times.
One particular hill was a very inn
portant position to the Russians. The
Japanese attacked repeatedly, day and
night. finally occupying the position on
the night of Sept. % after suffering
very severe losses. The attempt to
retake this hill being extremely haz-
ardous General Stoessel refused to
issue the order, but called for volun-
teers. Everybody called upon respond
ed, whereupon a requisite number OF
men were selected, Lieutenant Pog-
gorsky and Captain Sychaff leading
them. Soldiers and officers alike car
ried grenades (explosive shells weigh
ing from two TO six pounds, which are
thrown by hand), and with these they
attacked the Japanese temporary for
tifications and drove the latter from
all of their positions. Several mines
were exploded during the general bat
tic, causing severe losses. The Rus
SLAMS calculate that the total Japanese
losses for the four days fighting reach
20 900 men
