SERVICES IN OUR CHURCHES
LAST SUNDAY.

Easter Sunday was universally eel
ebrated throughout our city, all the
churches having special services in
commemoration of the resurrected
Lord. At the Church of the Epiph-
any, Rev. q. 9. Kramer. rector. the
service was most elaborate in music
and decorations, and the sermon WINS
most eloquent and uplifting, carrying
the thoughts away from sordid earth
to heavenly things. The musical
program under the direction of Prof
Albert Dee was beautifully rendered
and had much to do with accentuating
the truths of the great occasion. The
wealth of floral decorations evidenced
the resources of our Flora which
seems illimitable. At the Methodist
Church, A. W. Turner, pastor. the
service while not SO elaborate. was
most soulful; the great doctrine of the |
resurrection was vividly portrayed. !
and the arguments offered were abso- /
luteiy unanswerable. and all had their
falth confirmed, and good resolutions
The other churches: St. Peters
catholic, Rev. Fathers Jouan and
frohn, held the ppropriate service
or the day with all its completeness.

re not in possession of The Presbv-
erian Church, the Little Church
round the Corner, also recognized I
ne great occasion by its pastor, Rev. -
z. Arthur, delivering a sermon on
ne grand theme, most acceptable to
is hearers.

MAP SHOWING THE THEATER OF WAR

by the northward movement of the
Japanese toward Mukden. Langtse
Pass, where General Count Keller is
in strong position, is pointed out, as
is Kaitou, where severe fighting took
place. Along a line extending practi-
cally from Lao Yang to Ta Pass is To-
Gated at present the Russian left
flank, which the Japanese are reported
to have broken. No news comes, how
ever, that they have yet crossed the
Taitse River, and until the feat is ac-
complished it can hardly be said that
Mukden Is menaced. A turning move
ment, with the object of striking Lao
Yang from the north, is probably what
the Mikado's commanders intend.
Si-Chiao Pass, which has been occu-
pied by japanese force of 5000 men,
with artillery, is indicated in the map.
Kiaotung, whence the Russians were
driven, also is shown With the excep-
ton of this advance of Kuroki's right
wing, and its progress to the Chi River,
the positions Of the opposing armies
remain relatively unchanged. Heavy
rains in the Tatchekiao-Ha Cheng dis
trict apparently have impeded the
operations of Okus and NOdzu's
forces. Little news comes from Port
Arthur, but it is presumed that Field
Marshal Oyama is tightening his lines
about it.

George +. Hammond, one of the rob
bers of a Northern Pacific passenger
train near Bearmouth, Mont, on the
night Of June 10, has made a confession
to Sheriff Doust, of Spokane Wash, and
the officials of the railroad company. The
confession has been signed By Ham
mond, and he is being taken back to
Montana for trial. The highwayman
says the booty was about $500 in money
and about 400 small diamonds, In the
division he got all the diamonds and
$500 cash. The bandit guided the Off
fcers to his cache near Occur d'Alene
City, and they dug up $50 diamonds and
$225 in money He also guided the OFF,
GERS to another cache near Hillyard,
where $3.50 more was recovered. Ham
mond says that he and his partner stole
the dynamite with which they blew open
the express car from a mine, and they
had more than fifty pounds of it. Ham
mond went to Spokane. where he was
betrayed by a companion with whom he
became associated after the robbery and
was arrested

Hnnor of the War

That Vladivostok squadron evidently
knows its business.
Russia wants change of venue from
Manchuria TO the Red sea.
Japan will pound Russia's left flank
until it is tender if Russia is not careful.
Evidently it is costing John Bull a

now.
Perhaps Russis figures that it would
be as we'll TO have all its trouble this
year.
Before challenging the world Russia
should first demonstrate that it can

Failure of the expected attendance at

Louisiana Purchase Exposition commits
sion to suggest a conference of all inter-
ests connected with the exposition, with
the object of securing wider exploitation
in the rress. President Thomas HI. Car
ter of the commission has addressed to
PRESIDENT Francis. on behalf of the COM
mission, letter asking a conference, to
be participated in by representatives OF
the exposition company, the national
commission and the representatives OF
governments, States, territories and dis
tricts. The letter says in part: Beyond
the line of the special influence of the
local press the extensive proportions and
interesting details of the fair do not APP
pear to the commission to have Deec
made known to the general public, to the
extent or in the manner calculated to in
spiFe the interest and secure the attend
ance warranted by the extraordinary
merits OF the great educational force
herein stated. The muni6cent recogni-
uon or the fair by the general govern
ment attracted national attention. The
invitation extended by the President Of
the United States, under authority of
law, to the nations of the earth TO par
tlcipate in the exposition, supplemented
py the cordial cooperation of our diplo-
matte and consular representatives
abroad, secured the most extensive for
elgn participation ever accorded to any
ike undertaking. Moved thereto by the
example Of the national government, the
states, territories and dependencies Of
the United States joined in the exposi-
uon with unparalleled generosity and en-
thusiasm. The groups of palatial build
ings erected By the foreign governments,
and by the States and minor subdivisions
OF our country, together with the exhibits
installed in the exhibition palaces pro-
vided by the company, bear the amplest
testimony of their earnest desire to make
the exposition a pronounced success. The
buildings are completed. the exhibits are
installed and the exposition has been IN
progress for substantially three-sevenths
of its allotted period. The faith of the
management in the merits of the exposi-
ton has been justified by the approving
Judgment of all who have entered the
gates, but the daily attendance has been
far short of what it should be from any
point of view."

War News in Brief.

Many japanese have been withdrawn
from the positions near Tatchekiao to
reinforce Kuroki, who is believed to
have turned the flank of Keller's army.
A Chinese merchant, who was among
the last Of the foreigners to make his
way from Port Arthur, arrived in Vic
toria. B. c., and describes the plight Of
the inhabitants of the besieged city. The
troops levy on all stores, he says, and
only five of the warships are seaworthy.
Great Britain's bill for damages
against Russia for demurrage and other
indemnities connected with the arrest,
detention and Smelling Of British ships
in the Red sea will probably be very
heavy. Already it is roughly estimated
at $5,000,000.
The presence of a large number Of
japanese transports at the head of the
Gulf Of Liaotung and nine gunboats in
a nearby port is held to indicate that
the plan is to take Yinkow next. Kuro-
patkin seems to be nearly surrounded,
for 10000 japanese are reported advane-
ing on Mukden.
A Toxic correspondent says he be-
lieves the object of the Vladivostok
S1uduEon u " pclNeSA
the United States and Japan and that
steamers on the way from Canada and
San Francisco are in serious danger He
says another aim of the squadron is APP
parently TO seal Toxic bay.
Russia's yladivostok squadron sunk
the American steamer knight Command
er. from New York. of the province Of
Izu. after transferring the crew of the
knight Commander to the steamer Tsi-
nan. The Vladiyostok squadron also cap
tured a German vessel, believed TO be the
Arabia with a cargo OF -four and an IN
known British steamer. The two vessels
were sent to VladivOstOk in charge OF
prize crews.

PLANS HUGE DEPOT.
Site Costing So, 100000 Bought by Chi
cago Tunnel Company.

The Illinois Tunnel Company, Chi
cago corporation, has purchased for ST.
100000 a site at Taylor street and the
river for $4,000,OO0 depot, through
which the underground tunnel system
will connect with every railroad entering
Chicago. The transaction, aside from
being of great Importance as to financial
consideration, marks the beginning of
one of the most advanced utilities ever
attempted in Chicago. The station, On
which $1,5O0,000 is to be spent this year,
will be the receiving point for practically
all the immense volume of freight which
reaches Chicago destined for the down
town district. The site is connected with
the Terminal Transfer Railroad, and
through that with the belt lines, and has
therefore access to every road entering
the city, which means that at Taylor
street and the river there will be a sin
gle connection with 35 per cent of the
railroads terminal facilities of the Unit
ed States Within ten days the COM
pany will announce the location of sim
liar terminal for coal roads, from which
coal will De delivered through the under
ground system to the business district
The site of the freight terminal is on the
north side of Taylor street, at the west
side of the river. and has 404 feet of
river frontage.

PRO PROGRESS OF TIE MAR

SO far as is known General Kouro-
pafkin has been on the defensive since
the 10th and 18th OF July. when he
sent about 20,0O0 men under General
Keller TO Molten pass to develop the
Japanese strength at that point. 1t
was found to be greater than had been
looked for. Although the Russians
surprised the Jap outposts and fought
CALAMITY for a day they were com
PEELED TO fall back with an admitted
loss Of over 1000. 1t was learned that
a powerful Japanese army was mass
ed near Molten pass. threatening Lao
yang. but high price was paid for
the information.
Little was heard from General Oku's
army during the week. The Russians
report that their outposts south of
Tatchekiao and those of lie Japanese
ere less than four miles apart and
that constant skirmishing is kept UP.
On the 18th reinforcements which
General Oku is said to have been wait
ing for were disembarked at Yjakow
under the protection of Japanese cruis-
ers. The new troops will make good
his losses due to fighting and 10 sick
ness. Reports from Newchwang. which
may or may not be trustworthy, are
to the effect that on tbs Goth General
Oku continued His frontal movement,
although delayed by heavy rain
storms
While General Oku has remained
near Tatchekiao, wenacing the Rus
sian right and ready to follow it swift
" if it should fall back toward the
north, General Kuroki has been ex-
tremely active at the other end of the
long Russian line. On the 18th. the
day after General Keller fell back
from Molten pass, General Kuroki took
the offensive and set out to capture
.kiatoung on the Chi River, northwest
of the pass and east of Anping. After
two days fighting the Russian were
driven back and the Japanese occu-
pied Kiaotung. They put their loss at
fiftyfour killed and 1863 wounded and
