THE LAST
SUMMONS
Hon. Frank A. Manzanares, For
mer Delegate to Congress
Died This Morning.
HIS A USEFUL CAREER
In Public as Well as in Business Life
He Commanded Respect and
Confidence.

i A telegram received here this morn
ing from Las Vegas by J. D. Sena, an
nounced the death of the Hon. Frank
A. Manzanares, of Las Vegas, death
being caused by Bright's disease. His
demise was not unexpected as he had
been a sufferer for several years past
| and had been getting weaker and
weaker for the past few months. The
deceased was born in Abiquiu, about
81 years ago and comes of a we'll
known family in that section. His
ancestors settled there over two hun
dred years ago.
In early life he adopted mercantile
career In this he rose step by step
from errand boy to be the head of one
of the largest and best known busi-
ness establishments i'll the Territory.
This is the firm of Brown, Manzanares
& Company. 1t was established many
years ago and he was connected with
1t for twenty-five years and longer Ill
health compelled him to retire from
business about three years ago.
During his manhood he was a lead
ing citizen of the Territory and was
representative from the Territory for
one term as delegate in congress. In
this position he acquitted himself very
creditably and served his people
faithfully and efficiently He has
also served as member of the board
of regents of various public institu-
tions and in all these positions he bore
an enviable reputation as patriotic,
public-spirited and honorable citizen.
He especially did good service as
chairman of the board of capitol build
ing commissioners, which board had
charge of the construction of the pres
ent capitol building in this city. He
was an exemplary husband, and kind
and loving father. He leaves widow
and two sons, who are grown to man
hood, and a married sister in the
town of Taos.
His remains will be inferred in the
Catholic cemetery, Sunday morning,
near Las Vegas, which town has been
his home for forty years. His death
will be deplored by his many warm
personal friends and by the people gen.
orally, as thereby New Mexico loses
one of her best and most valuable cit
liens.

JAPANESE ARMIES
ARE ADVANCING
Reported That Field Marshal Oydmd
is Moving Upon Mukden and That
Another Great Battle is Not Far
DiStdnt----ChineSe are ASSISTING.

AdV1ceS from Mukden and the Ofti-
cial report to st. Petersburg indicate
that the Japanese forces are again on
the move. Kuropatkin's reconnais-
sances establish the fact that they are
massing on his east flank and other
bodies of Japanese are moving mp the
Lao River Valley. st. Petersburg,
however, still believes that serious
engagement is not Immediately at
hand, but that it will require some
weeks for Oyama to be in shape for
another attack. In the meanwhile the
Russians continue to fortify Tie Pass
and the statements that Kuropatkin
will not abandon Mukden are received
in st. Petersburg with some skepti-
cism. st. Petersburg expects the Jap
anese to now redouble their efforts be-
fore Port Arthur and another sortie
fleet is expected -
Garrison in Good Spirits.
st. Petersburg, Sept 16-A tele-
gram from Harbin says the following
has been received from Port Arthur:
"Our garrison is in good spirits and
there is no prospect of provisions fail
ing, Port Arthur is prepared for long
siege"
Tunneling Under Russian Forts.
Che Foo, Sept. 16.-The Japanese
troops between September Sth and
10th captured fort situated on a hill
two miles east of Golden Hill, by
assault. The fighting was not severe.
The Japanese were able to remain in
the fort because the quality of the pow
der used at Golden Hill was SO poor
that many of the shells fell short and
others failed to explode. The forego.
ing information was received from in
telligent Chinese who had just arrived
here and say the Japanese are tun-
nelling under the Russian forts with
the intention of blowing them up. The
work is slow and probably will be un-
successful. Ammunition is growing
scarcer in Port Arthur but there is
plenty of bread.
Are Awaiting Re-Enforcements.
The news from the frontfis exceed
ingly meager and the present lull in
the operations in Manchuria is expect
ed to continue for several weeks. It is
stated that Oyama will require consid-
cradle time to reorganize his advance

Moving Up Lao Yang.
st. Petersburg Sept 16-General
Kuropatkin reports that reconnaisan-
ces have established the fact that the
Japanese are massing near Yentai and
Bentsoaputze. Bodies of Japanese are
also moving in the Liao Yang Valley.
Russia's Reply Is Sent.
st. Petersburg, Sept 16.-Russia's s
reply to the representations of the
United States and Great Britain re-
garding contraband of war was COM
municated to their respective emba-
sizes this afternoon. 1t is understood
that Russia recognizes the principle
that provisions are not contraband
when consigned to private parties, but
only when intended as militay or ma
val stores.
Have Japanese Commenced Advance !?
Mukden, Sept. 16.-Early this morn
ing twenty-six wounded men belonging
to Major General Mischenkos' Cossack
division were brought to Mukden. The
particulars of the skirmish are not
available. 1t is not clear whether it
is simply an outpost affair or begin
ming of a real Japanese advance on
Mukden.
Garrison Anxious to Surrender.
Shang Hal, Sept. 16.-The North Chi
ma Daily News publishes a private let
ter from the Chinese interpreter en-
ployed from 1897 until the end of Au-
gust last in the commissariat depart
ment at Port Arthur. The writer says
that February last the department
supplied daily $4,000 rations to Rus

taking care of themselves "But when
we departed" he adds, ''only $4,000 ra-
tions were supplied daily to the whole
garrison, including the crews Of the
ironclads, which are now manning the
forts. There are now $4,000 sick and
