says that the cruisers Kasuga and
Yoshino collided during fog off Port
Arthur on May Is. The Yoshino sank,
only ninety of her crew being saved.
ION the same day the battleship

Giving details of the disaster Vice
Admiral Togo says:
AT TIA in the afternoon of May Is,

the latter in few minutes. Ninety of
her crew were saved.
"The same morning the Hatsuse,
while cruising off Port Arthur, cover
ing the landing of the soldiers, struck
q mine ten knots southeast of the har-
Dor entrance. She signalled for help
and instantly struck another mine.
She sank in half an hour. Three hun
dred Of her crew were saved by tor
pedo boats"

JAPANESE LOSSLARGE
SUSTAIN OVER THOUSAND GAS.
uALTiEs IN ENGAGEMENT
NEAR PORT ARTHUR.

st. Petersburg. May 21.-The gov
eminent has received news cont1rma-
tory to the rumors in circulation here
that General Stoessel has made sue
eessful sortie from Port Arthur, re-
sulting in the defeat Of the Japanese
with the loss of more than 1000 killed
or wounded. The Russian losses were
116 killed or wounded.
The movement was carried out by
combination with a train bringing
in war munitions and supplies and
General Stoessers force, communica-
lions being maintained by wireless
telegraphy. The Japanese barred the
route between the train and General
stoessels forces, whereupon the Rus
SLAMS attacked and routed the Japan
csc.
After the engagement General Stoes-
sells force, together with the train, re-
turned to Port Arthur.

TWO TICKETS NAMED
WISCONSIN REPUBLICANS SPLIT
As RESULT OF BITTER FAC.
TiONAL FIGHT.

Madison, Wis, May 20.-Two con-
ventions, both claiming legal status
by right of delegate majorities holding
prima facie credentials, and both
standing for the election of Roosevelt
as president and asserting themselves
to be regular Republican in nature,
were concluded in Madison last night.
Two state tickets, one headed by
Governor Robert M. Lafollette, and
the other by Former Congressman
Samuel A. Cook, are in the field.
characterized by order and the ab-
sence Of strife, the deliberations of
both conventions seem entitled to an
Identical degree Of recognition. Nc
clause in the Lafollette resolution 3
bears relation to any national repre-
sentative except Theodore Roosevelt.
The ticket named by the Lafollette
convention included all the present
state officers and the platform differs
from the Cook platform only in the in
tensity of it's declarations in favor OF
Lafollette reforms.
Since the Baensch and the Cook
delegates deserted the convention to
rally under the banner of Cook, there
has been no dissension in the ranks OF
that branch of the party. The .orga
nization candidates and the propagan-
da went through without hitch. Gov
ernor Lafollette regards himself the
choice of the Republican party. His
delegates, according to the state cen
trail committees count, numbered
5S511.
The other convention endorsed by
Senators John c. Spooner and Joseph
v. Quarles and every congressional
representative, stands ready to back
state ticket which they declare was
legally nominated by SGT delegates
holding prima facie credentials.

PEOPLE ARE MISSING.

nights foods have been recovered. It
Ii feared there have been other cas-
ualties, as number Of persons are

Fort Collins. Colo, May 21.-Esti-
mates of the damage caused by the
food in the Cache la Poudre valley run
from 100000 upwards. The head
gates of all the irrigating bitches have

bankments destroyed. Unless repairs

nearer 100000 than $1,000,000.
One hundred and fifty houses in the
Russian settlement at the sugar fac
tory north Of this town were destroyed.

JAPANESE FALL BACK
ADVANCE BODY MEETS SUPERIOR
FORCE OF RUSSIANS AND
RAPIDLY RETREATS.

Newchwang, May 20.-The reports
Of the Japanese retreat to Fenghuan-
cheng are officially confirmed.
The Japanese, numbering 10000
men, came upon $4,000 Russians in a
strong position on Monday, sixty miles
west Of Fenghuancheng. It being un-
wise to risk d battle the Japanese re-
treated in good order and with great
rapidity.
An unofficial Russian authority says
pitched battle was not fought, but
rumor says there was considerable
loss on both sides during the clashes
with the Cossacks harrassing the
tanks of the Japanese. This division
presumably was: executing a recon
Nuisance. The pursuit was checked
when the main body Of the japanese
was rejoined.

NOT GIVEN A FAIR TEST.
Landsman with New Cure for Sea- sickness Awakes to Find Ves-
 sel Had Not Moved.

A man who, upon the slightest provocation, falls a victim to the mal- ady known as seasickness heard of a new cure recently, and. being about to take sea trip out of Philadelphia, says the Record, resolved to try it. The cure consists in going to bed and to sleep just before the vessel leaves the dock and remaining in that con- dition, uninterrupted and without Sood, as long as possible.
 Accordingly, this unwilling seafarer went to his steamer and his stateroom loaded with drowsiness superinduced by prior course of training, and be- fore the lines of the ship were cast off he was sound asleep. When he walked he was unable to tell how long he had slept, but he felt that it had been an extended performance, and that he was incapable of any more He also felt entirely well and without a suspicion of his usual sickness. Much elated, he left his stateroom to go on deck, and in the cabin met the purser, to whom he told of his new found cure with great satisfaction.
 Why" said the purser, "it may be all right, but you've hardly given it a fair test. We found some of the ma chinery broken yesterday morning and we haven't turned screw nor moved a fathom's length since you went to bed. We'll be sailing this afternoon"
