THE WAR IN THE EAST.

The sanguinary side of the Rus
so-Japanese conflict is not now in
evidence, and with the practical
suspension of news from the front
the interest for the time being CEN
ters in rumors that Viceroy Alex
Jeff has resigned, as reported Sun
day; that Gen. Kuropatkin is to be
replaced by Lieut.. Gen. Linevitch,
now in command of the forces at
Vladivostok and other statements
which cannot be traced to authen-
tic sources, but all of which, if
true, would have most important
bearing on the situation.
One Russian correspondent points
out that when the japanese with
draw from the Russian front. it is
usually the precursor of their ap-
pearance on the fianks, and he
thinks the indications point to a
winter campaign.
Interest again turns to Port Ar
thur, and to the effect which the
Russian defeat at Lao Yang is
likely to have on the garrison
there, and the fear is expressed
that the siege will soon end in
disaster for Russian arms.

JAPANESE HOPE TO
FORCE Al DECISIVE FIGHT.

disappointment Because That at
LiaO Yang Did Not Prove So.
Lao Yang, Sunday Sept. 11.-(De-
layed in misunderstanding japanese
are greatly disappointed at the failure
of their plans to impose final con-
f1ict upon the Russians at Lao Yang,
in the hope of breaking up the present
now pushing reinforcements and sup
plies northward in every possible way,
using boats on the Lao river and its
tributaries. while all the native roads
leading into Lao Yang are filled with
wheelbarrows and other conveyances
carrying grain and ammunition into the
Chinese city, where Field Marshal Mar
quis Oyama, the japanese commander
in-chief, has established his headquar-
ters. There is every indication, therefore,
that the Japanese intend to force, if
possible, a decisive battle with the
Russians.
In the past the japanese have de-
clared their belief that the Russians
were using dum-dum bullets, baSing
their contention on the Vicious sounds
made by the bullets when they struck,
and they now claim that they have
proved the case by the fact that they
found dum-dum ammunition in the
field at Lao Yang. This evidence is
not considered conclusive, however.
The impression was held in Lao
Yang that the Russians had destroyed
the railroad between there and Muk-
den, but an examination of the line as
far north as possible showed it to be
everywhere intact This is taken to
indicate that the Russians propose to
use the line again. They posted
proclamations along the line warning
the Chinese not to damage it under
pain of future punishment. 1t is now
reported on good authority that in
some of the assaults made by the Jap
anese upon the Russian trenches be-
fore Liao Yang on Sept. 1 and 2 the
attackers at some places lost in killed
or wounded 80 per cent. Of the num-
bers engaged.
1t is believed that the Japanese
forces will remain stationary at Liao
Yang for one month to come.

The DEMOCRATS
GAINED IN MAINE
CONSIDERED 1T A VICTORY
TO REDUCE THE REPUBLICAN
PLURALITY OF 1900.

Republican Candidates for Governor
Ocrats Had Their Hope of Reduc-
ing the 1000 Plurality Realized.
They Increased Their strength in
the Legislature Also.
Portland, Me-, Sept. 12.-The Re
publicans to-day carried the state for
William T. Cobb, of Rockland their
candidate for governor by a plurality
of about 10000 over Cyrus w. Davis,
of Waterville, his Democratic oppo-
nent.
Complete returns will not be received
for several days, but 300 out of 522
cities. towns and plantations give
Cobb 59,7O5; Davis SS,S99. The same
places in 1900 gave Hill (Republican)
51,7O7; Lord (Democrat) 29,SO2. These
returns show a Republican gain of
about 10 per cent, and Democratic
gain of about 81 per cent. over 1900.
The vote for governor will probably
be the largest since 1888.
The Republicans had predicted plu-
ralfty of $4,000 for Cobb and the result
is very satisfactory to the leaders. The
Democrats stated yesterday that if the
Republican plurality of 1884 of four
years ago, was reduced by one vote
that they should regard it as a Demo-
cratic victory.
UP to a late hour tonight no state
ment could be obtained from any of
the Democratic leaders.
All four of the Republican members
ofsCongress were reelected. Amos L.
Allen in the First, and Charles E. Lit
tlef1eld in the Second, were returned
by practically the same pluralities as
in 190O while in the Third district, Con-
gresham E. C. Burleigh ran ahead
of his vote four years ago. In the
Fourth district, Congressman Lwelleyn
Powers was reelected by about $500
plurality, compared with $500 two
years ago.
The Democrats mide slight gains in
both branches of the Legislature, but
not enough to affect the reelection Of
United States Senator Eugene Hale.
News Goes to Roosevelt.
At II O'clock tonight, Gov John r.
Hill sent kilograms to President Roose-
welt and Chairman Cortelyou of the
Republican National Committee claim
ing the state by 10000, the four con-
gressmen by majorities ranging from
5000 to 10000, every member of the
state Senate and fve-sixths of the
House.
Many of the contests for sheriff were
bitterly fought. In Portland, the city
in which the enforcement of the pro-
hibition law has always been subject
/ of discussion, the present Democratic
sheriff, William F. Pencil, was re-
elected by a plurality of 1880.
Both candidates for governor were
successful in their own cities, Mr.. Cobb
carrying Rockland by 367; Mayor Cy-
rus w. Davis, the Democratic Candi-
date, winning his own city, by 3S
votes. Lewiston also went for Davis
by 576, which was the largest single
gain made by the Democrats in the
early returns.

solutely necessary repairs made to her
engines and boilers. Her bottom is
1oul and will have to be cleaned in flrv
dock. The lieutenant said that the
Lena's coal bunkers were far from he

The United States inspectors of hulls

thorough examination of the lena

the duration of the stay of the vessel
IN this bay. If it is decided that re-
palrs are required they will be made
as rapidly as possible, and it is gem
orally anticipated that this is what
will be done.
Collector of Port stratton has not
received any definite instructions from
Washington, but has wired a fulI
statement of the situation, and an
answer is soon expected. In the mean
time the collector, in view of the fact
that the repairs are said to he i'm
perative, has refused to order the Lena
from the harbor within twenty-four
without full investigation.
The Lena is anchored between the
four army transports lying in Mission
bay and the new battleship Ohio.
In fact, she is only about 500 yards
from the big guns of the battIeship.
which was accepted by the govern
ment on Saturday.
Navigating Officer Specimen, who
speaks excellent English, said:
We were sent to Vladivostok to
transfer the troops home when the
war should be over. The Lena is not a
warship. We cannot fight.
Needing repairs, we were first or
dered back to the Baltic. Afterward
these orders were changed and we have
come here because it is the nearest
port in which we could get the new
boilers we need
Being asked how long he would re-
main here, Officer Specimen said:
we expect orders from our naval
representative at Washington, who
has just been advised of our arrival.
1t is probable that he will ask the
American government for it's permis-
sion to remove the guns of the lower
decks and allow the vessel to remain
here until repairs can be finished
When asked how long he thought
that would require, he said:
'The Lena will probably remain here
until the war is over. We expect that
the officers and men will be sent home

New York. Sept. 12.-The New York
brokerage house which it was alleged
sent out the government figures on the
cotton crop in advance of their issu-
ance by the government, sent a tele-
gram to Secretary Wilson to-day as
follows:
The morning papers published tel
egram from the Savannah Cotton Ex-
change to you stating that they had
written you that we had sent out the
government report at 12:45 on the day
1t was made public. We did send out
telegram that day. giving our views
on what the government figures would
be. AS you probably know we get out
an estimate every month on the con-
dition of the cotton crop. We issued
printed circular on Aug. 30 three
days before the government report
came out, estimating that if your re-
turns on deterioration corresponded
with ours, your figures on condition
would be SAL. All the New York pa
pers were furnished with a copy of our
circular on Aug. 30, and many of them
used same.
