TO DIVIDE RUSSIAN ARMY
Tsco Armies To Be Formed-Karo-
patLan IN CHIEF Command.

ST Petersburg. Sept a.-Resides the formation
ef tEo fresh army corps as the first answer to
the japanese success at Liao-Yang, the Russian
army at the front win be reorganized. probably
IN the form OF two armies. in command of Cen
eral Linevitch and General Baron Kaulbars Ie-
spectively, with General Kuropatkln as COM
mander in chief. General Kaulbars will go out
with the two army corps now organizing in the
governments Of kazan, Odessa wilma and Kieff
General Linevitch has been ordered by telegraph
from Vladivostok TO Moukden.
This decision is due in part. doubtless, TO the
growing unwieldiness OF the big force under
General Kuropatkin's command and which win
be largely increased by constant reinforcements
General Kuropatkn heretofore has handled
every detail Of the vast organization. The work
is too much for one man. and he is now almost
broken down under the strain
IL is known that the Emperor is personally one
OF Kuropatkin's strong supporters, and it is
thought that the general viii in all probability
retain chief command of the two armies Kuro-
patkin, however, has been seriously criticised bv
some of the EEnperOrs close military advisers
and it is possible that he may eventually be
superseded

BOON REACHES ESOPUS.
Parker Receives Letters BOLSteiiRg
Up Hills Cullen Idea.
Inr rELEeRArH no ruE rRIBrNE.I !

Fsopus N Y. Sept. S.-All that is known here
about the reported attempt to nominate Judge
Cullen for Governor on the Democratic ticket is
the fact that within the last few days there has
been an increasing number of letters written by
those who favored such action. These letters did
not come from any of ex-Judge Parker's friends
nor is there any suggestion here that the Presi-
dentiaI candidate has been asked about the mat
ter. What is true is that Judge Cullens name
has suddenly and with no apparent cause be-
gun to creep prominently into the mail OF the
Democratic nominee creating surprise here
where it had been accepted as foresone con-
clusion that Judge Cullen at least would be
named for the chief place on the bench.
Signs at Rosenount indicate that three men
are to-day considered here as seriously in the
race for the Democratic Governorship nomina-
tion and they are mentioned in this order:
Edward NJ Shepard. District Attorney William
Trayers Jerome and Chief Judge Cullen. More
over it was learned to-day that canvass OF
this state and a poll of the voters are row in
progress. This is tbs second. The results of

recent canvass for it is affirmed that such

for the completeness with which II was con-
Quoted The first Democratic canvass so II is
declared by observers here. was badly man
aged and the returns were too hloecurate t.

THE canvass habit is also gaining ground in
Indiana and Judge Parker has received word
that the Democratic Organization there is So
perfect that complete poll OF the State can be
had IN a single day. This statement impressed
ths Democratic candidate immensely the more
hacause he expects that such e poll ,vilI be

.Army Getting Ready for Fight
Japanese Surrounding To5cn.

The Russian army at the front, according
70 ST. Petersburg dispatches, is to be reor-
ganized, probably by the formation of two
armies under General Linevitch and General
Baron KauIbars, with General Kuropatin
as commander in chief.
General Kuropatkin reported from Mouk-
den that his whole army had reached there
in safety without the loss of gun, and wns
heing drawn up about the city. General
KuroEd's army, he said, was advancing east
of the city and General 0ku's west. Evi-
dently the intention was to surround the
place General Kuropatkin was undecided
about giving battle there or Withdrawing
northward.
According to japanese arriving at Che
Foo from Port Salay, the japanese army be-
fore Port Arthur is preparing to make an
other assault on the fortress. From Russian
sources comes a report of body of 700 Jap

BRADSTREET'S REPORT.
Calls the Trade situation More 1rre-

New York, May 27.-Bradstreet' sum-
mary of the state of trade will say to-
morrow:
The situation is rather more irregular.
Distributive trade. stimulated by u bet
ter weather in some sections has im-
proved but is still behind a year ago.
Cereals crops. particularly winter wheat,
show improvement but cotton reflects
droughtv conditions in the South Atlantic
and Gulf States while good reports come
from west of the mississippi
The industrial outlook is rather un-
settled. The railroads are laying off large
numbers of men, low estimates number
ing as many as 10000 since the t,St of
the year The strike on the lakes is tying
up the ore and coal traffic and rendering
idle many thousands of ore and coal
miners with smaller numbers Of long
shoremcn. grain trade employees and
others. Employment in the iron and allied
trades is less continuous. Efforts to bring
about a general strike of freight handlers
at the East have so far failed. Bushes

weekly review of trade will say to-mor-
row:
Retail trade is stimulated by seasonable
weather and the industrial outlook is
brighter on the whole although several
adverse factors have appeared. The big
dry goods auction sale opened with an
unexpectedly large attendance and rood
prices were secured. 1t is particularly
gratifying to note that retailers rather
than jobbers have made most of the pur-
chases thus providing prompt distribution
into consuming channels throughout the
country. Manufacturing lines 'oport
slight improvement at WOODEN mills ana
shoe factories and while there is moro
idle cotton machinery, it is worthy of
note that the last Fall River statement
showed very little reduction in dividends.
1t Is ncrca singly difficult to find en-
couraging indications pertaining to the
Iron and steel industry. Purchases are
small and frequently effected at further
concessions. although it is difficult to
ind definitely lower quotations. except
for pig iron. Textile markets have i'm
proved to some extent during The past
week. Failures this week numbered 29

TWO GREAT WATERWAYS

While Russia is likely to be more or
less engaged in warfare for generations,
il is to be hoped the United States may
be wholly exempt and enabled to pursu"
the howery and pleasant paths of peace

methods of public works. OF the enormous
value of the work to Russia, nothing
need be said AZ measure of safety in
war But by far the greater value would
come to the world in the use of the canal
as n highway for commerce. The Rus
sian government has been libcrll in
amounts given for the survey of the
rivers, and the work will, undoubtedly,
be completed.
The activity Of the Russian govern
mont in the matter has aroused interest
in the old time project of "A ship canal
between the two bays, the Delaware and
the Chesapeake-in time of peace a canal
for commerce. and in time of war for
protection to the national capital. The
house committee on railways and canals
gave a hearing to the advocates Of the
project in the early days of last month
and Mr. Alfred j. Crozier submitted esti-
mates showing that the canal could be
built at a cost not exceeding that of two
battle ships of the first class. That the
canal would avoid the necessity for sc
many defensive vessels is admitted and
by its means war vessels stationed al
any one or all OF the naval stations
on the Atlantic coast could speedily bt
concentrated at any desired point pro
tecting the capital, and avoiding a sea
voyage and the chances of capture.
The project will be revived and pushed
before the next session session of Con
gress, and it will have advocates in the
interest of peace and trade and com
merce equally with advocates because
of its value in time of WARRIOR these
are the days OF appreciation of the true
value Of waterways by the public.
