KUR0PATKIN MAKES
REPORT TO THE CZAR.

st. Petersburg, April 20.-Gen. Kuro-

to the Emperor:
Gen. Hashtalinsky reports as follows
on April 19:
All is quiet on the Yalu. The
Japanese are throwing up entrench-
ments opposite Golutsy and further to
the north.
The numbers of Japanese troops
are increasing. They are concentrat-
ing at Wiju and spreading toward the
north along the Yalu.
"'Cossack sentinels have observed
the lights of Japanese transports near

chored at a distance of fifty versts

F0Y FOR SENATOR.
Defeated Col. Morgan RawIs by
Small Majority.

Guyton, Ga, April 20.-John e. Foy
was nominated to-day for state sem
ator from the First district by small
majority over Col. Morgan Rawls.
Lester was given a handsome ma
jority over Brannen for Congress.
Simmons and Turner carried the coun-
ty by sure majorities. The vote was
unusually heavy, almost every pre-
cinct in the county voting its full
strength. The Eden, Rihcon, Clyo, and
Egypt precincts have been heard from.
The Springfield vote will not be re-
ceived before tomorrow. Guyton,
Springfield, and Eden are known to
have given Rawls majority, but the
vote in the other precincts for F'oy
insure his election. In fact, Col.
Rawls tonight conceded the senator
ship to his opponent. In the Guyton
and Egypt precincts the vote was:
Guyton: Rawls. ITO; Foy, So; Egypt:
Foy, III; Rawls, II.
The chief interest centered in the
contest for senator. Col. Rawls has
never offered for the Senate since the
rotation system was adopted, but he
has represented Emngham in the Leg
islature for more than thirty-five years
and has never been defeated.

st. Petersburg, April 20.-What may
turn out to be the anticipates flank
ing movement of the Japanese troops
is the appearance of a number of jap
anese ships off Potinsa, near the Gulf
of Ching -Tai-Tse, as reported to the
Emperor to-day by Gen. Kuropatkin.
Military experts here have long re-
garded that vicinity as the probable
point of Decentralization of the second

Though the Japanese are building
entertainments on the Yalu, it is be-
heved they will advance soon. The
arrangements for a turning movement
are complete, and experts say that
such a movement could properly be-
gin at Taku Shan, as Feng Huan
Cheng lies at an angle of an equilat-
ersl triangle, with Taku Shan and
'ne mouth of the Yalu as the angles
at the base of the triangle.

uouotedly will be covered by war
