A RECORD

odpC. NAd1ou, Ill COuiuAdAAu VI oAe
Steamer Washburn, left Mamma.
ven Sunday morning with boat al
$50 A. NJ, loaded with 5000 bush.
els of grain, consisting of whea'
and flax. He arrived in Washburn
at ILLS A. NJ, and proceeded tc
unload. At 600 o'clock, he had
unloaded and was on his way up
river bound for Mannhaven.
This makes a new record as re-
CARDS the swiftness with which
boats are unloaded at this point.
The .Washburn was in port about
six hours and the load of 5000
bushels of grain was elevated from
the river and placed in cars ready
for shipment via the 500 for east
ern points.
The system installed here for the
loadin. AID unloading of boats is
just about as perfect as can be
ma.e. The wheat is carried from
the river on an endless belt to the
Washburn Elevator located on the
bluff of the river. The system was
installed two years ago and has
given satisfaction. This fall, a
chute was erected on the bank and
the ignite coal used on the boats
is shot down a narrow chute d.
rectly onto the boat. This saves
considerable handling.
: The Expansion also arrived Sun
day evening, laden down to full
capacity with wheat and the rush
Nil continue until the close of
navigation. Capt. Marsh informs
us that in all his experience on the
river. he has never seen a better fall
and the stage of water is good for
this time of the year. The Wash
burn drew three feet of water and
no trouble was experienced OH the
way down.
The elevators at Mannhaven are
all filled up and the grain taken
out by the boats is soon replaced.
The boats are being made to do
their best and as much grain us is
possible will be brought down be-
fore the close of navigation. Yhere
are now three boats plying between
here and Mannhaven.

DEALING, THE SECRET OF
SUCCESS IN BUSINESS.

We have opened a music house
at Bismarck, and are in a position
and will give the people the best
piano value for the money of any
house in the west. We have Sc
lected such instruments that their
merits bespeak our success. We
purchase the Mehlen and Grown
direct from those factories and are
in position to compete with any
music house in the United States.
When Paul G. Mehlen & Sons of
New York, constructed the Mehlen,
their aim was to construct an in
strument equal to any on the mar
ket; in this they succeeded and the
Mehlen stands today, a monument
to their memory.
We also handle the Crown, the
piano of many tones. Geo. P. Best,
the maker, was the originator Of
the Mandolin, Harp and Either at
tatchment, and every person po-
sessing a Crown is a worker for the
piano. Why send away when you
can geta better instrumental home
with a saving to you of from $25 to
$500. Wekeep everything musical.

logue and prices.

READY TO STRIKE.
IF the Japanese Do Not Move the Rus
 sians Will.

Mukden, Oct. 23.-While no pitched battle has occurred during the las few days. the two armies are kept in touch with one another, holding the positions they occupied when the big battle ended. There is no evidence that the Russian army will rush north. as was the case after the battle of Liao Yang Tn fact, the Russians have another line Of defense to fall back upon, in the event that they are forced out of their present positions. During the last few days there has been ire quen- artillery fire, occasional infan- try attacks and daily clashes between outpOsts and scouts.
 Unless the Japanese take the initi- ative soon, the Russians, it is expect cd. will resume the offensive and en- deaVor to drive the Japanese back for the purpose Of insuring the safety of their winter quarters. which will un doubtedly be north of Mulzden unless the southward advance should prove successful.
 Another big battle fs expected short ly, as the weather is already turning cold It will be inprcscticable for the two armies to winter in their present positions, midway between AIukden and LiaO Yang.

The socialist lead CT in Belgium, M. Jules D'Estree, writes that steps have been taken which will lead to the adoption of an anti war resolution by the Belgian parlia- ment and Andrea Costa leader of the socialist deputies in the Italian cham Der, writes that similar resolutions will be adopted immediately after the Ital- ian chamber cOnvenes.
 Like action is expected on the part of the German and Spe nish socialists. M. Jaures will introduce a resolution in the French chamber where the strength of the socialists indicates it's adoption.

 RuSSO-JapaReSe Front
One Side the Other Expected Make an Early Forward Movement = The Increasing Cold Makes Action of Some Kind Necessary-It Is Supposed That General Assault Upon Port Arthur Is Impending

So far as the dispatches from the far east show. there has been no change in the relative positions of the hostile armies confronting each other on the lines of the Shakhe river There is an uncOnfrmed report that a Rus sian force of 10000 men has been con centrated at Kauta Pass, twenty miles northeast of Liao Yang, which may be indicative of the direction in which General Kuropatkin is likely to strike his next blow
 Upwards of 2O,O0O of the Russian soldiers wounded in the battle of the SEaAhe have reached Harbin. Cold weather caused suffering to the arm ies in the field, although it has wrought an improvement in the con ditiOns for the movement of troops. A troop reached St. Petersburg, but lacks confirmation, that the Port Ar thur fleet has left it's anchorage in the harbor and has taken up position in ghe roadstead.
