Chi-fu, March 14.-It is reported
here that another unsuccessful at
tempt was made Saturday night by the
Japanese to obstruct the entrance to
Port Arthur.
1t Is reported that the repeated at
tacks upon Port Arthur have been
made with the double object of cover
ing important landing operations and
to reduce the Russian fleet and fortifi-
cations to point where their destruc-
ton will be assured at the proper
time. The same authority states that
the Japanese have had no desire to
secure actual possession Of Port Ar

Chicago, March 14.-Walter Well
man in a Washington special to the

There is one sure way in which Sem
ator Smoot may save himself the hui
initiation of being expelled from the
United States senate. That is by ap-
pearing before the committee on priv
ileges and elections and declaring in
effect that all these disclosures as to
his fellow apostles of the church liv-
ing in open polygamy and even sane
tioning the performing plural mar
riages since the manifesto are news to
him; that tehy come to him as a
revelation; that he does not counte-
nance such violations of law, and now
that he has been made aware Of them
he disclaims all responsibility and re-
nounces his connection with the
church.
A leading republican member of the
committee said to me that If Sena'
tor Smoot were to do this were to say
to the committee that he has resigned
as an apostle Of the church and actu.
ally tender his resignation, there is ne
doubt as to the action of the commit.
tee and the senate. They would vote
perhaps unanimously. to permit Sen
ator Smoot to retain his seat.
Whether or not Senator Smoot will
adopt this course, no one seems tt
know. His counsel have intimated t.

Seoul, March IA have had an
interview with DR.. Wada Of the hos
pital at Chemulpho, where there are
twenty-four men wounded on the
Variag, on tn effects of the new jap
anese high explosive shells. The fuse
acts on contact with water, clothing,
or in fact anything.
The burst fragments range in size
from a few centimeters in most cases
to pinheads. The exploding shell
tears men to atoms within a small
but underlined radius, outside Of which
it inficts wounds which are generally
slight.
On the bridge Of the Variag, the
captain and four men were struck by a
bursting shell. A petty officer disap-
peared completely and only an arm
Of Count Nirod was found. The sail

THIRTY. MURDERS
Due To- VENDETTA
Police Obtain Clues to Secret of
Deaths From Flames and
Stiletto.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Altoona, Pa, March 14.-In the de-
lirious rawlings of an Italian boy, who
had been stabbed and left for dead,
detectives have cleWs to the most dan
gerous Italian society they have
known.
Thirty murders are ascribed to the
members of this band, all in this and
the two adjoining counties. Twenty
eight Italians in the railroad camp at
Lilly were cremated four months ago.
The building in which they died was
flimsy one, with numerous doors and
windows, but none of the men escaped.
On several of the charred bodies sti-
letto wounds were found.
1t is believed the society executed
this wholesale crime, the members
driving back at the points of their
knives those who sought to escape
from the flames.
Ten Of these murders have been
committed among the Italian laborers
working on railroad improvements.
EArrests have beers made, but in every
alibis, and altho the circumstantial
evidence inseach case was almost con-
elusive, no convictions could be had.
| In every case the victims Of the socie-
ty who died by the stiletto bore. the
dread mark of the banda cross, deep
carved on the forehead. - II.
Recently detectives were called to
investigate the stabbing Of two italians
near this city. The victims were
brothers, and the elder was killed
but the younger, a boy, is recovering
When he first was aroused from the
stupor in which he was found he
whispered: 1.-THE avengers; the

In the hospital, while in delirium
he repeatedly cried out in fear, de.
claring the avengers were pursuing
| him; but when he became rational he
resolutely refused to talk. In his raw.
ings, however, the boy d1vulged enough
to furnish the adetectives clues or
