Vladivostok, April 29.-Admiral
Yezzen's four cruisers, which made
a dash off the Corean coast, is be.
ing cleaned today.
Details of the cruise show that
the squadron met the japanese
transport Kinshiu Maru at II o.
clock on the night of the 9th. The
latter's commander mistook the
Russian vessels for the Japanese
squadron and signalled that he had
coal for them. The Russian COM
mander signalled an order tor the
transports to stop, whereupon the
Japanese, discovering their mis-
take began to lower their boats and
steam pinnaces in an effort to es.
cape, but the Russian steam cut
ters captured all of them.
Apparently none was left on
board, but an examination revealed
the fact that six infantry officers
were in the cabin and in another
part of the ship were 130 infantry
men who refused to surrender.
Admiral Yezzen ordered the men
away, but the Japanese soldiers op-
ened fire, wounding Russian cox
swain, after which the transport
was sent to the bottom by me-
chanical mine and a few shells.
The japanese aboard did not
cease firing and made no attempt
to save themselves, although they
had launch left.
Shots rang from the Japanese
guns until the waters closed over
the heads of the intrepid soldiers.
Further repofts of the sinking of
the Kinshiu Maru this afternoon
state that altogether 210 prisoners
were taken. 1873 were taken from
the transport and include s colonel
and high staff officer.

Liam Lang, April 27.-On April
%, The Russians observed that the
Japanese were making preparations
to cross the Yalu r,ver. On the
night of April 25, two steamers
and two torpedo-boats were noticed
at the mouth of the river. They
approached the shore at daylight
and the Japanese commenced to
build pontoon bridge on the left
tributary. A second pontoon was
being prepared ten miles up stream
At three o'clock the same after.
noon the Japanese occupied the isl
and of Samolindo, to which they
carried pontoon boats, etc. The
night passed quietly, the torpedo
boats maintaining cereful watch
in case the troops ashore should bs
attacked, and examiningthe mouth
of the river by means of search
lights.
At $40 O clock the next morning
| the Japanese cruised the rivs, neal
the village of Tchang Dijiu, where
however, the Russian outposts com
rnenced firing upon them. Ths
Russian advance guards had beer
turned with a small gun, ano
they succeeded in destroying The
pontoen constructed near Wiju.
The wrecked pontoon was carried
away by the current, and further
Japanese bridging operations ceas
ed, but the Japanese continued Il
cross by another pontoon south o
Wiju. A Japanese column, with 1
battery of artillery, approached Tu
renchen at midday, but the Russia,
skirmishes met them with sharl
firing, evidently giving them troubl
as they retired with the battery
which made no attempt to answe
the Russian fire.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
COMMITTEE AT COUNCIL.
Ticket scRIper Ordinance VIII Be
Passed This Afternoon.

A committee from the Chamber of
Commerce has been invited to appear
before Council at the meeting to be
held this afternoon in regard to the
ticket brokers' ordinance, which will be
read for the second time and put upon
its passage.
The ordinance is as near prohibitive
as it is possible to pass legally. 1t is
thought the Chamber of Commerce
representatives will advocate its pas
sage.
Though the aldermen are by no
means all agreed on the ordinance,
there are enough of them in favor of
it to pass it, Mayor Myers, the orig
inator of the movement here, is very
anxious to see it passed. He thinks it
will be carried through without any
trouble
There are several assessment rolls
which will be passed by Council These
and few minor petitions are all the
matters that have yet been presented
to come up. In the Committee of the
Whole the corner stone laying and the
entertainment of the League of Geor-
gia Municipalities may be discussed
briefly, though the Mayor says there is
no need for hurry in the matter now
All the things that needed to be ar
ranged very far in advance have al
ready been attended to.

ASK THAT PIANO FIRM
BE ADJUDGED BANKRUPT

Through Attorney William r. Leak
en-, Hazleton BROTHERS of New York,
The Morning News, and John V. Dow
ley. filed a petition in the United
States Court yesterday asking that the
Macarthur & Sons Company, piano
dealers, be adjudged bankrupts. 1t is
asserted that the debts of the firm ex-
coed the assets by at least $500 and
that the firm has already committed
an act of bankruptcy.
The New York firm is the heaviest
creditor. 1t schedules the amounts due
them as follows: One promissory note
dated April IA, 1904, for $500; one prom
issory note, dated June 2, 1904, for
$1,000; and one promissory note, dated
June ., 1904. for 1000. This makes
their total credit $1,000.
The amounts owed to The Morning
News are on two promissory notes for
$257 65. The amount due John v.
Bowling is S27 on open account. The
total liabilities of the company as set
forth in the petition are $2,5S4.65.
It is claimed that the piano firm has
committed an act of bankruptcy in
that it has transferred contracts and
notes aggregating in value the sum of
SIS, 900 to the John Church Company of
Cincinnati, one of the creditors. The
papers were served on the piano firm
by Deputy Marshal Doyle and later
forwarded to Judge Speer.

TO DISCUSS VIOLATION
OF THE SABBATH LAWS
At Meeting of Ministers and Thun-
derbOIt management.


1t was announced at the Ministerial
Association meeting at noon yesterday
that the Thunderbolt management had
agreed to meet the committee from the
association and discuss the alleged
Dissertation of the Sabbath at Thun-
derbolt. Rev. w. A. Nisbet, who made
the announcement for the committee,
stated to the association that he was
highly pleased with the reception
given.
The meeting between the committee
and the Thunderbolt management will
probably be held some time this week,
the exact date having not yet been de-
termined upon. The ministers are con-
fident that all matters can be adjusted
without calling in the aid of the law.
In speaking of the state of affairs Mr..
Nisbet said
Our committee was highly pleased
with the manner in which we were re-
ceived by the management of Thun-
derbolt and it's amusements. We were
at once informed that Mr.. Labb was
not the ultimate source, that his state
ment was not authoritative, and that
the management repudiated it and
condemned it. That puts an entirely
new face on the matter and l am con-
fident that all things can be amicably
adjusted
The committee from the association
which has the matter of the Sunday
dissertations at Thunderbolt in charge
and which they are endeavoring to
stop is composed of Rev. w. A. Nisbet,
chairman; Rev. D. S. Edenfield, and
Rev. I. A. Smith.
The question of holding tabernacle
meetings was discussed at the meeting
yesterday. No action was taken on
the matter, though the sentiment of
the ministers seemed to be in favor of
such a series of meetings. 1t is prob
able that tabernacle meetings will be
held early in the fall.

j. C. BLAKE ILL IN VIRGINIA.

The large number of friends of Mr.
]. c. Blake will learn with deep re-
greet that he is critically ill at his
home in Lynchburg, Va. Until some
two years ago, Mr.. Blake was the
physical director of the Y. M. C. A.
in this city.
He resigned that he might study
medicine, and began a course in that
science at the University of Maryland
The excellent progress that he made
secured for him the post of assistant
surgeon in the Baltimore county Jail
during this summer, and he was dis
charging the duties of this place, when
his serious Illness made it advisable
that he be sent home.

STOLE PISTOL AND
SHOT OUT LAMP,
Pistol Fired Into the Home of j. f.
TiIIman on Bull Street.

I1Ilmnn on Bull street.
Just as the little son Of ]. z. Till
man. who resides on Bull street just
south of the Atlantic Coast Line
tracks, entered a room at his fathers
home to get a lamp early last night,
there was A report from a pistol. the
window glass in the room crashed and
the lamp was shot out.
The boy screamed and Mr.. Tillman
rushed TO his bedroom to get his pis-
tol, which he always kept under his
pillow. The pistol was missing. He
Immediately made an investigation
but found no trace of the man who
had shot into his house. Police head
quarters was notified and Mounted
Patrolman Eivers went to the scene to
make an investigation.
No description of the man who fired
into the house could be obtained. The
boy had seen no one at all when the
shot was fired. The report frightened
him so that he made no effort to find
the man. The theory is that the man
slipped into the house and stole the
pistol while the family was at supper.
The shooting of the lamp through
the window can not be accounted for,
except on the ground that the thief
was drunk, crazy or a criminal brag-
CART.

INSPECTION OF MILK
ONCE MORE BROUGHT UP.
But Alderman GTaysOn Changed His
Mind in short While.

The inspection of milk by the city
authorities is again being agitated,
though it is not thought any immed-
late action will be taken by Council.
Alderman w. L. Grayson intended
to bring the matter up at the meeting
Of Council this afternoon, but after
talking with DR.. Drummer. about the
matter, he decided to let it rest.
II still think all milk ought to be in
spected," said Alderman Grayson last
night, but after talking with DR..
Drummer. l have decided not to bring
the matter up. The city does not want
to enforce the inspection ordinance just
yet"
DR.. Drummer says the inspection of
milk would of course be a good thing.
but that there are other matters more
important that the city has to look
after
Mayor Myers says there is no neces-
sity for any action now. The
city was never in better condition from
a sanitary standpoint, he says, and is
remarkably free from sickness of
everykind
THE health authorities will look aft
er everything that needs attention"
said the Mayor. Everything is being
looked after all right now. There was
never time in the citys history, when
there was SO little disease. There are
none of the contagious or infectious
diseases at all, so far as I know"
Some time ago the Chamber of Com
merce took the question of milk in
spection up, but nothing ever resulted.
a committee was appointed to take
the matter UP with the city author
tiles, but no conference was ever held.
At the time it was thought it would be
necessary to have an ordinance passed.
but it is understood the city has the
authority under the present ordi-
nances to make the inspections when
ever desired.
Since the brief agitation by the
Chamber of Commerce, the matter was
dropped entirely until Alderman Gray
son took it up. He announces now he
is going to do nothing about it, so the
matter will probably again be dropped
for a time.
