"A Russian force, apparently about
10000 strong, attacked the front, left
and right of the Japanese positions on
the western slope of Molten pass at

the Japanese posts, but as soon as re-
Inducements arrived the Japanese
gallantly advanced to the attack, and,
after severe fighting, drove off the
Russians and reoccupted the position.
The Russians retreat was we'll COW

JOHN BULL MAY
ASK DEMURRAGE
Regards Seizure Of Vessels in the
Red Sea in q Serious
Light.
United States Prepares for Pos
sibility Of Molestation Of
American Ships.

st. Petersburg. July 10, 4:35 pm
In diplomatic circles the impression
is gaining that the action Of the vol
unteer vessels in stopping neutral
ships In the Red sea to search for
contraband of war, will at least lead
to an interchange of views between
the powers signatory to the treaty Of
Paris regarding the status Of the re-
naming ships Of the volunteer fleet
now in the Black sea. Thus the old
question of the Dardanelles may again
become the subject OF important di-
plomatic communications. Great
Britain's shipping being the most di-
rectly involved, the indications are
that she will insist upon definition
of the status Of the volunteer fleet
still In the Black sea.
AS a forcible reminder of what
stopping British ships involves, it is
likely that Great Britain's prelimina-
ry move may be the presentation Of
claims for demurrage for the deten-
ton Of all ships. stopped.
London, July 19.-In British official
circles the recent seizures and over
hauling Of British ships in the Red
sea by the Russian volunteers steam
ers are regarded as very grave inter-
national incidents. The seizure, of the
P. & o. steamer Malacca by the ST.
Petersburg and her arrival in the Suez
canal as a prize OF war on her way to
Libau, on the Baltic has brought the
matter to a climax and the cabinet
is considering the course to pursue.
If any official action or protest ensues
it will be chiefly in regard to the pass
age Of the merchants ships thru the
Dardanelles and their subsequent
| Transformation into ships of war.

st. Louis, July 19.-Mrs. G. H. Car
roll Of Miller, S. D., has lost the To-
cation Of her hotel. She is very anx-
ious to find it because her room con-
tains clothing, valuables and money
to the extent Of $3.50.

acquaintance Of man and woman
who gave her a hotel card and ad-
vised her to stop at that hotel while
in the city.
She did so and stayed at the hotel
Tuesday night Wednesday morning
she went to the fair. There she lost
the card. She could not remember
the name of the hotel nor where it
was. She only knows that to reach
an Olive street car she had walked
one block west and three blocks
north.
B After hunting 1t until she was ex-
hausted, she stopped at boarding
house at Forty-first and Olive streets
that night. She renewed the search
daily with no better success.

purse to pay her way back home, she
took a train for South Dakota.
