Sheriff Bell not only informed Carvel
that he would not guarantee 10 protect
him from harm, but strongly advised

JAPANESE ARE
MOVING ON
Newchwang Garrisoned and
Advance Continued.
KUROPATKIN IS HARD PRESSED

Japs Now Have a Line Across the
Liaoyans Peninsula, Cutting of All
Communication With Port Arthur's
Beleasuered Garrison.
Newchwang, July 29.-Although it is
known General Oku has advanced
steadily on Haicheng through the burn
ing towns of Tashichao and HUI
chuangthien and that General Nodzu
also is pressing General Kuropatkin
hard on another road to the main Rus
sian position. details are difficult to
obtain because this city now is under
Japanese control.
Major Takayama Of the japanese ar
my arrived here yesterday morning and
took charge Of the garrison and civil
forces as administrator of Newchwang.
His first act was to inform the people
Japan would protect lives and prop
erty, his next TO appoint Mr.. Gilchrist.
an American, commissioner Of customs,
and his third TO declare the valley of
the Lao river open to trade and neu-
tral vessels. Mr. Gilchrist was deputy
commissioner Of customs here under
ihe Russian government 1t was an
nounced later that another American,
United States Consul General Miller.
was to continue in Office under the Jap
anese administration. He is praised
by the Japanese for the vigor with
which he insisted on fair treatment of
their interests while the Russians held
the city.
Important Base Gained.
The Japanese in occupying New
chwang and its port, Ylnkow, have
gained an important base west Of the
Russian lines. From this point they
not only command the Liautong gulf
west Of the peninsula and thus cut of
the last possible avenue of Russia's
communication with Port Arthur, but
tncy also are able 10 send land forces
eastward and northcastward to attack
General Kuropatkin's rear. They now
have line all the way across the
peninsula and have driven all the Rus
slams save General Stoessers beleaguer-
ed garrison in Port Arthur out Of that
part Of Mancburia.
Reports partly through Russian and
native channels and in some degree
through Japanese scouts and field tele-
graph squads from the armies of Gen
erals Kuroki, Nodzu and Oku are that
the japanese operating in the hanking
movement against Liaoyang, believed
to include a strong detachment Of the
imperial bodyguard division, have ad-
vanccd between five and six miles far
ther in their westward march along
the Taitse. They were harassed all of
Monday and Tuesday by scattered par
ues Of Rcnnenkampff's Cossacks. who
evidently were trying to re-establish
communication with Lieutenant Gen.

N. PIehve's Career.

For years Wiatscheslav Konstantlno-
witch Plchve was donomlnated by tho
outside world as the most powerful
man in Russia" "the man behind the
throne" the black shadow that cast a
sinister gloom over all the domestic
economy Of the Russian empire A
man Of no charm of character OF alb
solutely no social brilllancy, OF no ac-
complshments other than those OF
ceaseless labor and indefatigahle per
severance. he became in the minds of
those whom he prosecuted TO the death
the personidcation of mans relentless
hatred and pitiless vengeance.
| When Car Nicholas II. came TO the
| throne Plehve was the most powerful
man, in many respects, in Russia. II
1901 he was appointed secretary o.
state for Finland, which country h'
soon had in a state Of revolt by reasol
of his habitual cruelty in governing th'
people under him.
Plehve was called home and put IN
charge Of home affairs in the early par
OF 1908. Since that time long serie,
OF revolts and outbursts of popular in
/ dignation have taken place-riots al
/ the universities, rebellious uprisings OF
the peasants in the provinces Of Kiev
Saratoff. Tschanigon. Cherson, Poltava
and Charkon and the bloody massacre
Of Kishinen.
The massacre of Jews at Kishinen
in the spring Of 1908 raised about
/ Plehve an almost worldwide storm OF
/ execration. He was denounced as the
/ palliator. IL not the instigator, of th'
outrage. 1t was said that he hat
caused it for deep political reasons, thl
most important that he wished TO pre-
vent the czar from carrying out certain
reforms at Kishinen, which, II success
full there. would have been EXTENDED
throughout the empire.

tional Russian tribute to death, wheth-
er OF friend or foe. Not word of re-
proach, not look of hatred, told Of the
inward anger OF nation which had
stricken the mighty.
Assassination Not Unexpected.
Death came TO Won Plehve in the
precise circumstances in which the
best hated man in Russia feared it
would came. At his express orders the
minister's carriage was always driven
through the streets at full gallop. BY
speed he hoped TO thwart the plans Of
nssassins.
In the great crush Of the part Of the
Zabalkansld Prospect nearest the sta
ton and the canal speed was impos-
siblc, and it was this point that the as
sassln chose for his deed. ON an ordi-
nary occasions the minister's move
ments have been kept profound Sc
cret, but on Thursday, the regular day
for his weekly conference with the czar,
all ST. Petersburg knew that Won Pleh-
We would be on his way to the Baltic
station in the morning.
II is recalled now that after he had
seen his wife off the previous night
and had gone 70 the home Of his old
friend, General Bogdnovich. Won Pleh-
We was prooccupiod. Some OF tho
guests asked him II he had received
any new threatening letters, and the
minister replied somewhat contempt
uOusly:
Il am safe enough every day in the
week except Thursday. No one knows
OF my movements beforehand except
on that day, when everybody knows
that / so to present my weekly report
to the emperor
II is evident that Leglo, who was
dressed i'm a railroad employees coat
and cap, had watched the minister's
routine schedule and selected for his
attempt the only time i'm the week
when success would he certain.
In official society the assassination
has produced a feeling Of terror The
czar, already overwhelmed by the bad
news from the seat Of war, and with
the murder Of Bohrlkoff governor gen.
eral of Finland fresh in his mind. was
profoundly affected by the second blow
dealt in resentment OF the tyranny OF
Russian autocracy Together with the
official announcement Of the death OF
Won Plehve. however, the imperial re
script gazetted the appointment for the
time being Of NJ. Durnovo, who Is
noted for his adherence 70 tho doe
trines Of which NJ. Won plehve was the
chief exponent in the empire.

known man on his fish trap just be-
low Wyse's Ferry, on Saluda river,

whether the body was that of a ne
gro or white maD, as the body WAS
so badly decomposed as to be un-
recognizable. His right foot had
also been torn tff. There was no
vissble signs of foul play. The yer.
dict of the Coronors' jury was as
follows. That the unknown de-

undecided SIS to the color of the de-
ceased. The Coroner had the body
