WILL NOT TRY
ALLIANCE MEN

Denver. Feb. "a Republican spe-
cial from Georgetown last night says:
On motion of District Attorney Thur
man, Judge De France, presiding in the
District Court, to-day entered an order
of nolle prosequi in the cases against
tie eighty citizens of idaho Springs,
members of the Citizens Alliance,
charged with riot in connection with
deporting fifteen members of the Min
ers' Union out of that city July Goth
last, as the result of the blowing up
of the transformer house at the Sun
and Moon mine. There were five in
dictments against each of the defend
ants.
A dramatic scene followed the mo-
ton of the district attorney. when At
torney p. J. Carney. one of the coun-
sci for the Miners Union in the recent
trial, who had been appointed the spe
cial prosecutor to supersede the district
attorney by Judge Overs, sitting for
Judge De France at the October term,
entered an impassioned protest against
the entry of the order proposed by the
district attorney. He was followed in
a vehement speech by Attorney Rich
ardson, chief counsel for the Miners
Union, who characterized the motion
as "the most damnable outrage against
humanity and the laws of the land ever
perpetrated in any court"
Judge De France sustained the mo-
ton for a nolle prosequi, holding that
the district attorney has full power in
the matter under the law in such func-
tiOns

ing that he would be lynched, claimed
that Spach met his death accidentally.

Removing Russian Mines.

Toxic, June s, 5:3O p. NIT is sus-
pected here that the Russians at Port
Arthur are communicating with points
on the seacoast by means Of wireless
telegraphy. 1t was reported that a
wireless station had been erected Sc
cretly at the village of Peh Wang, on
Talxin island, one of the Mao Tao
group. which are situated in Pechli
strait and the Japanese cruiser Chito-
sea visited the island yesterday TO in
vestigate. She did not. however. find
anything. 1t is reported that another
such station has been erected near
Shan Hal Kwan, and the Japanese are
. Investigating this matter.
Yesterday the Chitosea steamed In
close to Lao Tshan promontory and
discovered four masts and watch
house near the coast. One OF these
masts evidently was fitted for wireless
telegraphy operations. The Chitosea
reports having heard a series OF ex-
plosions at Port Arthur and believes
them to have resulted from blastings
preparatory to the emplacement of
new batteries.
The Japanese torpedo boat destroyer
Ikazuchi yesterday discovered and ex-
ploded large mine of San Shan
island, at the entrance TO Talienwan
bay,
The Japanese naval authorities en-
gagged in clearing out the mines In the
vicinity of Talienwan bay are employ
ing Japanese shell divers from Kushia
province, for the purpose. These
divers volunteered for this work and
are wonderfully expert. 1t is said that
with their diving paraphernalia they
can stay under water for half day at
time.
Hundreds of Japanese fishermen are
volunteering to assist in clearing away
Russian mines and II is probable that
some of them will be used for this
work. These voluntary offers are
taken to illustrate the unity of the
Japanese people in the war.

kurokI Recovering From Fever.

Paris. June 6.-The St. Petersburg
correspondent Of the Echo de Paris
says:
According to information received
here, General Kurolki has been suffer
ing from a mild attack OF typhus fever.
but he has now recovered.
The general belief is that General
Kuroratkin will not advance to the re-
lief of Port Arthur. In any case. or,
ders to do SO have not yet been trans
mitted.
.T learn that England has obtained
from Japan. in behalf OF Russia. that
the Japanese will not destroy seals in
Behring sea during the war.
1T is rumored that the army corps
of the st. Petersburg district will be
mobilized soon. have reason to be-
Iieve that two other army corps In the
central districts will also be mobil-

Russia Greatly Depressed.

London, June 6.-The curtain is
drawn again over the progress of the
war, probably indicating that import
ant events are impending or afoot. The
explosions heard at Port Arthur sug-
gest that the Russians have renewed
their attempts to remove distractions
in the mouth OF the harbor. All kinds
of rumors are current. few of which ap-
pear to have any reliable basis.
Various special correspondents in st.
Petersburg report increasing depres-
sion In Russia over the prospect of the
fall of Port Arthur, and say that wild
reports are in circulation as to dissen-
sions between the generals and the
highest officials over questions of policy
and strategy.
The Daily Mail gives great promi-
nence to statement from Russian
correspondent" declaring that Russia
will stand or fall by Port Arthur as far
as the governments prestige with the
lower classes is concerned.
internal troubles are inevitable"
the correspondent says, should the
fortress fall. Count Lamsdorff displays
q strong personality. but his position is
precarious. and he is likely to be sac
rif1ced as q scapegoat to popular indig-
nation at the way the war has been
conducted. Although 1t is said that
General Kuropatkin has lost favor at
court, no change in the command OF
the army is contemplated"
The St Petersburg correspondent of
Reuters Telegram Agency says that
increasing anxiety is felt over the
Iestlessness Of Chinese troops on the
Manchurian frontier.
The Morning Posts correspondent in
st. Petersburg goes SO far as to say
that Russia is preparing to cope with
serious Chinese invasion.

State Humane society.

Perhaps the greatest of all problems
dealt with by the Humane Society is
the care and disposition OF children
who deserve and require public atten-
tion. More than LA cases OF this kind
came before the society last month";
and this number was not exceptional.
Many reasons may combine to bring
about this necessity for attention on
the part OF children. or II may arise
from a single cause. This has led Sec
retary L. X. Whitehead and his assist
ant Mr.. Dougherty, to make a classi-
flcation of the difficulties to which
children are subject. which is perhaps
the first thing of the kind ever at
tempted. Cards have been printed
which are designed to cover all causes
OF unfortunate conditions existing
among children.
"A child may be beaten by Its pa
rents or others and its morals may be-
pome perverted in various ways" says
Mr.. Whitehead. but there is another
evil that is just as great and frequent
ly more difficult to remedy. This Is
the unfortunate mental state in which
many children live. Unhappiness In a
child may forever ruin its disposition
and frequently leads TO a criminal life.
This feature we pay particular atten-
tion to.in our investigation OF the
cases which come before us.''
Other causes for action by the So
ciety are delinquency. dependency and
effectiveness. These six heads cover
most of the causes relating to the child
itself. There are many other condi-
tions which demand this interference
OF the society, however. and these have
to do with the parents. Evils among
parents will generally fall under the
following heads: Crime, insanity. pau
perism. immortality, drunkenness. gam
bling. desertion, non-support, disabll-
ity, poverty, Ignorance, 1aziness and In
competency. Parents are frequently
prosecuted and forced to pay more at
tention to their children. When chill
dren are taken into custody by the So
ciety their own shortcomings are
noted on the records with the causes
and certain facts concerning the
parents. such as nationality, descent.
whether divorced or separated. etc.
