LONDON, june "a. "A St Petersburg
dispatch says % lperor Nicholas has re-
ceived the Lowing dispatch from
General Kuropatkin:
"a Japanese army from Kaichau is
gradually advancing northward.
General Kuroki's advance from Stu

effect an alignment of the two armies
1.-THE strength of the enemy's van
guard is approximately a division and
several squadrons of cavalry and the

ported by strong column of infantry
toward the south
THE enemy position extends within
seven miles southwark to Somuchen,
along a line from the sea to the noun
famous and difficult district east of the
railway.

strongly held by cavalry and a screen
of infantry. The passes and defles in

miles east Of Siakhotan and the Cha

| of Siakhotan.
| THE Japanese have fortified Kuan-

a strong screen.
'The enemy has occupied the village
of Sapenhai, twenty-five miles north
east of Saimatsze, and is firmly in
trenched.''
The Japanese have occupied Vafang-
ten, on the main road to Liaoyang,
with a battalion of infantry and a
squadron of cavalry. A detachment of
/ the same strength occupied Chanlinju,
in the valley of the Tsuo river, seven
miles north of Fengwangcheng.
The charge of barbarous treatment
of Russian wounded made against the
Japanese by some Russian corresponds
ents at the battle of Vafangow does
not find general credence. Doubts as
to the truth Of the charge are increased
! by reports of Kindness and considera-
ton shown by the Japanese in many
instances to wounded Russians.

outcome of the feeling among the popu-
Iation and the government against for
eigners, the natives holding them re
sponsible for the wretched financial

secretary of the Isthmian Canal COM
mission, today gave out the following:
Applications for places under the
commission have been filed by thous-
ands, and are still pouring in. 1t
ought to be understood that no one not
possessing special qualification will be
appointed for the work OF the COM
mission. The work will be largely of
technical character.
"Those applying for service on the
isthmus, in addition to the possession
of exceptional qualifications, must pass
rigid physical examination, under
the direction of the public health and
marine hospital service to test their fit
ness for service in the tropics.
Probably not one in hundred of
those applying have even a remote
chance of appointment

St. Petersburg, June ga dispatch
from Lieutenant General Sakharoff to-
night, telling of numerous skirmishes,
confirms the belief that the great de-
cisive battle of the campaign between
General Kuropatkin's main army and
the armies of Generals Kuroki and Oku
is imminent. The three armies aggre-
gate SOC, 900 men, and their outposts
are today in touch all along the line.
The Japanese evidently tried to draw
Kuropatkin as far south as possible,
holding out as incentive check to the
advance of Oku's main army. Mean
time, Oku swung sharply to the east
ward to join Kuroki toward the Chapan
pass, Kuroki at the same time moving
strong force by the right flank toward
Haicheng. The main Japanese ad-
vance continues along the main Feng
Wang Cheng-Liao Yang road, avoiding
the Mao Tien pass by detour to the
northward.
Nothing is known here of the exact
point at which Kuropatkin' g main force
is concentrated, though it is believed
that a large part of the Lao Yang
force has been moved to a point be-
tween Kinchou and Ia Tche Kiao.

CHARLES w. FAIRBANKS
Republican Nominee for Vice President
M loss than 10 600 men and woma,

No less than 1000 men and women
participated in the ratification of the
party program. and the consequent roar
of cheering and handclapping was deaf
ening. The band stationed high among
the girders OF the hall was drowned by
the tumuituous, unbounded demonstra-
tion. Hats were tossed into the air,
state emblems were waved and flags,
beautiful, tri-coolred, shimmering
silken flags, futtered from every hand
as though stirred by gale.
The roll was called and the unanim-
GUS vote of the delegations recorded for
Mr.. Roosevelt without incident until
the name of New Jersey asked unanim-
GUS consent that the roll be dispensed
with and that the secretary of the con-
vention be instructed to cast the entire
vote for Mr.. Roosevelt. The objection
was general and every state accepted
the opportunity of casting it's entire
vote for the president.
Pandemonium broke loose again
when the speaker announced that there
we're 994 votes and 994 had been cast
for Roosevelt. A great picture of the
president was carried about through
the hall.
Ex-Governor Black, of New York,
made the speech nominating Roosevelt,
and Senator Dolliver, of Iowa, nomin-
ated Fairbanks.

Russia RedoubIes Her Efforts to Get
Baltic Squadron Ready.
St. Petersburg, June 29.-Work on
the Baltic squadron designed for service
in the Pacific is being pushed with re-
doubled vigor night and day. Ad-
miral Birileff, the commander chief
at Constadt, is cooperating with Vice
Admiral Rojetsevnsky, in command OF
the Baltic fleet, to hasten the work.
The captains of the battleships Navarin
and Sissoi Veliky and the armored
cruiser Admiral Nakimoff, the first ves-
sci to 60 out into the roadstead in COM
mission, have been publicly compli-
mented for their diligence. In order
not to impede the work, the crews are
not mustered to salute the commander
in-chief when he visits tie vessels.
A strict guard is maintained at Cron-
stadt. Even the warships' launches
are not allowed to enter the naval
basins after dusk. Lieutenant Vavil-
lor, in charge of the naval laboratory,
was arrested recently and confined to a
fortress for bringing relative to the
laboratory without permission.

he Will UepOrt more men III the O0Vef.
nor Will Only Direct.
Cripple Creek, Colo., June 29.-Gen-
eral Sherman Bell, who is governing
Teller county under martial law, has
issued another statement for publica-
ton, which in part is as follows:
''There are 10, 900 lies being written
about me. am acting under orders
of the governor of the state of Colorado.
He stands for peace and quiet and good
government, and has instructed me to
see to it that the Western Federation OF
Miners shall not-directly or indirectly
murder any more men, and they
shall not.
$50 far as placing Denver under
martial law is concerned, that rests
solely with the governor. Provided he
should see fit to do so, am his adju
tant general, commanding the military
forces of the state, and will see to it
that hundreds of bad men are deported,
and after martial law has been called
off, if the citizens permit the cattle I
intend to deport to return that will be
their business. No man who wants to
work will be molested, but the person
who lives solely and only by his mouth,
provided Governor Peabody gives me
the word, will have to emigrate. The
time for temporizing talk in Colorado
has passed. What we ought to do now
is to act, and I guess we are going
some."

MAY LEAD TO REBELLION.

President Meyer Says Miners VIII Re-
sent Policy of Bell.
Cripple Creek, Colo, June 25.-In
reply to telegram from the New York
World, Charles H. Meyer, president of
the Western Federation of Miners,
who is now a prisoner in the county
Jail here, sent an extended statement of
present conditions in the state from his
standpoint. Mr.. Meyer said in part:
'The deportation of the union men
and others, being in my opinion un-
lawful, the Western Federation of
Miners will use all lawful means to re-
establish their members in their
homes. No violence will be resorted
to, but such legal steps as may be nec-
essary to bring about the desired re-
suits will be taken at the proper time.
Pending such action, deported men,
bers and their families will be sup
ported by the federation.
General Bell alleges that his policy
has been successful, and that ether
states are expected to follow suit. If
this be true, then rebellion is not i'm
probably, as the great majority of the
American people are today condemning
such a system, and, regardless of union
ism, would bitterly resist any attempt
to put the same into practice. l disa-
gree with the general as to the labor
troubles being settled in Colorado,
but do believe they will be settled by
the ballot in the month of November"

LEGAL FIGHT ON OIL TRUST.
Ohio Man Begins Suit to Dissolve the
STANDARD Oil Company.

Trenton, N. j., June 29.-Chal les J.
Henderson, Jr., of Jersey City, and
Jospeh M. Newlin, of Philadelphia,
counsel for George Rice, of Marietta,
O., today fled in the court of chancery
a bill for the dissolution of the Stand
ard oil company, New Jersey corpora
tion, charging that the company is IL
legal, and that it exists in violation OF
the antitrust laws of the United States,
and of the statute relating to monop-
olies.
The bill charges that the Standard
oil company in Ohio was declared IL
legal by the courts OF that state, but
that the company, instead of dissolv-
ing, in obedience. to that decision, has,
by subterfuge, evaded the Ohio deci-
sion, and that the New Jersey corpora
tion is merely holding company for
the Ohio concern. The bill asks that
not only the company be dissolved, but
that it's assets be distributed among the
stockholders as paying off its outstand-
ing securities. For the accomplish
ment of this purpose, it is asked that
a receiver be appointed.

PASSAGE PARTIALLY BLOCKED.
Russian Fleet Has Great Difficulty In
Leaving Port Arthur.

Russian Fleet Has Great Difficulty In
Leaving Port Arthur.
Toxic, June 29.-The detailed report
received from Admiral Togo of the op-
erations before Port Arthur, which re-
suited in the sinking of another Rus
sian battleship, shows that the en-.
trance to the harbor at Port Arthur is
still blocked to such an extent that il
is impossible for the Russians to
maneuver. The operation of bringing
the Russian feet into the open, &C
cording to the report of the officers oi
the Japanese scout vessels, lasted from
IL a. M, till $3.50 p. M, and was diff.
cult in the extreme.
When first seen by the main feet the
Russian ships were in double column
formation, the first made up of four
cruisers and six battleships, with the
battleship Czarevitch in the lead.
The second column was made up of the
cruiser Novik and seven destroyers.
That the Japanese did not attack in
force and attempt to sink the entire
Russian feet was due to the fact that
nightfall arrived before the ships could
be brought within range, and nothing
was left but for the torpedo attack. II
is generally believed now that another
attempt will be made by the Russians
to escape.
