MANY RUMoRS AFLoAT.

st. Petersburg, June S.-The gov
ernment, it is authoritatively said, has
no more information than the public
of happenings in the neighborhood of
Port Arthur. The lack of official news
from southern Lao Tung was re-
sponSible for the usual number of
rumors yesterday. among them the re-
ports from Che Foo and elsewhere
that the Russian squadron had made
sortie from Port Arthur and that
the Japanese had begun a land attack
upon the fortress. The general staff
could neither confirm nor deny these
stories.
Liao Yang, June 8.-The Japanese
have drawn in their advance guards
from Vafangow. They blew up part
of the railway and the telegraph sta
tion on the night of June 3. The dam
age was soon repaired.
Cossacks are harrassing the Japa-
nese towards Port Arthur. Cossacks
searching the hills occasionally catch
detached parties unawares. In the
clothing of Japanese officer who was
killed documents were found showing
that the Japanese had lost heavily in
the fighting on May 80.
London, June S.-The correspond
ent of the Daily Telegraph in Toxic
cables:
THE commander of the fourth
Japanese f1otilla, who has returned to
the rendezvous of the fleet from a re-
connoisance in the vicinity of Port
Arthur, mentions the loss of the Rus
sian gunboat Giliak and the blowing
up of another Russian gunboat about
the same time"

New York, June 11.-Through a

as he saw men making it," the police

men in the act of making counterfeit
coins. At the same time they cap

APPEAL TO THE PRESIDENT.
Union Miners Want an iaves'iga-
tion of Colorado Affairs.
DECORATIONS Are the Ords, of the
Day at Cripple Creek-"A!l

Gen. Bell.

Victor, Col. June 1.-THE verdict
of the coroners jury in the case of the
men killed Monday at Independence
says that the men were killed by the
explosion OF an Internal machine, and
that the crime is one of similar crimes
committed in the Cripple Creek dis
trict for the purpose of intimidating
non union miners.
Denver, June 1.-THE executive
board of the Western Federation of
Miners has decided to appeal to Pres
ident Roosevelt to investigate the
conditions in Colorado Secretary
Haywood is instructed to send the fol
lowing telegram to the preSident:
"A duty devolves upon you as pres
ident of the United States to investi-
gate the terrible crimes that are being
perpetrated in Colorado in the name
of law and order. We will render
every possible assistance to the
proper authorities in such investiga-
ton, to the end that the people of the
country may realize the outrages that
are being inflicted on innocent per
sons by those in temporary official
power"
Cripple Creek, Col, June 11.-De-
portations are the order of the day
Gen. Bell, military commander, has
ordered that IS members of the Min
ers' union shall be taken out
side of Teller county on a special
train in accordance with the recon-
mendations of the Citizens Alliance
committee which examined them.
within 4S hours this district will
be rid of all agitators and other OBJ
jectionable men," said Gen. Bell. "One
deportation after another will be
made until none of the men who have
terrorized the district SO long will be
left here. We intend to continue ar
resting men who are not wanted here
and they will be run out as fast as
possible"
The committee having in charge the
petition being circulated among mer-
chants and business men pledging
themselves not to employ union labor
ordered the expunging CT the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor from the list
of Objectionable unions, because the
printers, pressmen, stereotypers and
newspaper writer's are affiliated with
that body, and to place the federation
under the ban would necessarily in
volve the suspension of the Cripple
Creek Times and the Evening Star,
which employ union forces.

poets are brighter on the lakes.

SOME FAMOUS SIEGES.
Historical Sieges Of Greater Duration
Than That of Port Arthur.

A siege always has it's elements of
excitement and romance. 1t is a con-
test of mental as well as of physical
forces. The siege of Port Arthur,
which is so wildly interesting the
whole world, brings to mind many of
the famous sieges of history. Since
the 18th of last May the town has been
shut off from the world by an army of
marvellous size and equipment, and
the beleaguered people within are suf-
ferins untold hardships. And yet this
is an exceedingly short siege compared
to some Of which we read. Before the
Christian era Greece camped nine
years on the Trojan plain before she
"burned the topless towers Of 1lium."
Rome, with her primitive battering-
rams and wooden weapons. pricked ten
years at the walls of Veil before her
eagles were triumphant. And her
splendid legions were held at bay for
two years before Scipio at last stood
as conaueror among the ruins of
Carthage. During those two frightful
years the women of the city, in moral
terror of the wolves from the Tiber.
worked shoulder to shoulder with the
men in the trenches.
In more recent years the siege of
sebastopol in the Crimean war easily
takes precedence for daring and pic
turesaue achievement. For eleven
months the smoke of battle hung like a

IOWA.
Rooseve't's Majority Figured at Be-
tween 5000 and 100000.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. 30.-Estimates
on the Republican plurality IN Iowa
this year vary from 1000 to 100000.
The criterion will be the total vote
cast If 100000 votes are polled the
plurality will exceed 100000. If it falls
below SOC. 900. as seems likely. the plur-
aity will fail under the 100,00 mark.
There are some radicals among the
Republicans who behave that the vote
nill be 800. 900 and that the Republican
electoral ticket will have 10000 plural
ity Among these radicals are men
whose names are on the ticket They
base the estimate on the statement
which they, have heard made by the
PDor,le'e party adherents and by Demo-
cratic friends of William Jennings Bry-
an that they will not vote, or if they
do will vote for Roosevelt and Fair
banks There are many voters in this
class i'm Iowa.

many. In the first place. the Demo-
Gratis have made no campaign, and eX-
Iect to make none. except in one con-
greSsional district. In the second place,
the Republicans expect to redeem this
year half of the county offices which

INDIANA.
Comprehensive Poll Indicates Repunli-
can Plurality of 10000.

Indianapolis, Ind, oct. 3O.-An eX-
haustive and comprehensive poll of the
state shows a Republican majority Of
about 10000. The 60-day poll conduct
ed by tie Republican managers showed
n majority for that party of $4,000. The
coming of William ]. Bryan into the
state has undoubtedly changed thou
sands of votes to the Democratic cam
didate. Those of his followers who
sulked because of the action of the St.
Louis convention and had either de-
termined to remain away from the
polls or else vote for Mr.. Roosevelt.
have undoubtedly been swung into line
by thousands. A heavy vote will be
polled. The result cannot be foretold
with any degree of accuracy at this
time.
on the face of the returns at hand.
t is apparent that the Republicans
will carry the state by from $1,000 to
1000. If the Democrat managers are
able to follow up the work accom-
plished by Bryan and have ample cam
paign funds. they will have good
fighting chance. The 3O-day poll re-
Gently completed shows a gain of IS
per cent. in their favor.
The indications are almost conclu-
sive that the Republicans will elect
nine representatives and the Demo-
Gratis four. The elements of doubt in

Republicans eXps cted at the outset to
convert have practically all been re.

According to United States Consul
General Mason at Berlin. notable
German invention in the field of APP

material for heating purposes to which
has been given the name 'kryptol."

portions of its ingredients are not dis

different heating opera tions. Electric
heat may be developed by two general
methods: The elect"ic circuit may he
broken, SO that a vOltaic arc is formed.
and the charge in the furnace is thus
heated directly, or the current may be
transmitted through conductor that
offers enough resistance to generate
heat, which is impaired to other sub
stances by contact. This is the indirect
electrical heating system. IF which
krynt)l offers the latest and most in
teresting example.
The two main difficulties inherent in
voltaic-arc furnaces are: % Only
very high temperatures are developed,
which are difficult to modify or control.
and 90 the arc consists largely of in
candescent particles of USUALLY car

so impure as to preclude it's use for
many important purposes. Roth of
these defects are remeGiNd by kryptol,

Roosevelt Will Garry Bryan's State By
Good Margin.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 3o.-There is practi-
cally no contest in Nebraska over the ma

the eight electoral votes to Roosevelt. No
effort has been made by the Democrats
and Populists to unite against the Repub-
lican national candidates.
Four years ago Mckinley carried the
state by 7s22 votes over Bryan. This year
the estimates which are regarded as I'M

In 1896 and 1906 William Mckinley's plu-

unprecedented pluralities, the chairman
