EVACUATION OF KArCHOU.
kurOpatkin Thinks It Was We'll Ac-
 cOmpllshed by the Runaians

Tatche Kiao, July 11.-(Delayed by military censor)-The Russian retreat from Kaichou, with the loss of only hundred men and the inf1iction of heavy losses on the Japanese. was brilliant feat. of which General Kuropatkin marked his appreciation by conferring decoration on every officer present.
 Dawn, July 9, revealed the Japanese in such force that 1t was necessary to withdraw. The retreat was carried out in the face of tremendous difficult ties Only the road north swept by the Japanese batteries and barred by clumsy, conspicuous gate, could be used. Near this gate stood General Stakelberg directing the operations The Russian batteries, cleverly masked disturbed the Japanese gunners, and, as a result. their projectiles fell short.
 The bombardment lasted many hours. Shells were flying over the city of Kaichou but the Chinese were quite unconcerned and carried on their busi- ness as if nothing unusual was occur ring. There was a critical moment when the bulky commissariat wagons had to pass the exposed. narrow gate way. The Japanese tried to take ad- vantage of the situation and repeatedly attacked the Russian flank, but they were beaten off
 The Japanese began to press the rear guard. for the majority of Russian troops had gone north and Colonel Krause. with a battery, came to the rescue. He posted his guns near the gateway and fired five hundred rounds with terrific effect upon the advancing masses. The Japanese gunners at first fired widely. but finally found the range. the first well aimed shot killing Count Nirod. who was standing beside Colonel Krause. The Russian guns were then removed. Two companies still remaining at Kaichou had to fight their way north with bayonets.
 The Chinese at Kaichou gave the Japanese an enthusiastic reception, decorating the streets and houses.
 Important events may be expected near Haicheng in a few days.

RUsrA IS REJOICING.
Populace Credits Report of Jap Re verse at Port Arthur.

Populace Credits Report of Jap Re- verse Ut Port Arthur.
 St. Petersburg. July 15.--The people of St. Petersburg retired tonight in a happy frame of mind. The absence of a despatch from Lieutenant General Stoessel. commander of the military forces at Port Arthur regarding the reported disaster to the Japanese last Sunday night, is generally attributed to the delay in communicating news owing to the absence of the Emperor.
 Private despatches received in St. Petersburg from Russian sources in the Far East confirm the report of a Japanese repulse. According to a usually reliable source, the Japanese losses were 2.so0 and the Russian losses 1900.
 The city remains in a ferment of ex- citement and extras are eagerly bought in the hope of finding the long expect ed despatch from General Stoessel.
 It was only late tonight that des- patch arrived. which had 1t become generally known would have tended somewhat to darfpen the enthusiasm. This was q desge ,sh from Tatche Kiao communicating an undated despatcfrre- ceived. there dated July 13. It did not mention the assault or the repulse. but it is quite possible that the despatch was sent from Port Arthur earlier than July 10 so that it cannot be fairly re1 garded as contradictory evidence.
 The rejoicing in the Russian capital is increased by a foreign despatch con firming the Japanese reverses The question Is early asked If the Russians took advantage of the Japanese dis comfiture to follow up the blow and infiict a crushing defeat with possibly the capture of the siege guns.
 The news that the Vladivostok cruisers and torpedo boats were out again filled the Russian cup of joy to overf1owing.
 The retreat from Yinkow and per- haps from Tatche Kiao does not weigh in the balance. People who had be- gun to grumble at General Kuropatkin are inclined under the influence of the news from Port Arthur to take the opposite view which is also voiced by a trained military expert who says the retreat from Kaichou was a master piece in tactics.

WEATHER FOR TO-DAY.
washington, July 14.-For Alabama showers Friday and Saturday, cooler In the interior Friday, light to fresh south winds,

tion of mutual concessions. The treaty will have no relations to any subject other than commerce"
 T know nothing of the report that Jewish bankers have informed Rus- sia that they will not participate in a loan unless concessions are made to the Jewish subjects of the Emperor, but attention should be called to the fact that Jewish bankers did not par ticipate openly in the loan fioated in France, though I have learned since that finding it good investment they bought large blocks of bonds. As a matter of fact measures have already been taken for the relief of the Jews and more are now under consideration in pursuance of the Emperor's ukase of last year and without relation to the war.
 T find in St. Petersburg the ut most confidence prevailing that Rus sia finally will triumph; over Japan. The only question Is how long the war will last.
 T left St. Petersburg on the eve of the arrival of Prince Philtoff minister of railroads from Manchuria. but un- derstand that the railroad capacity is twelve trains each way daily and that soon 1t win be fourteen Only forty miles remain to be built in order to connect the zrailroad around Lake BakaL People outside of Russia are far more concerned about the question of applying troops .han our quarter masters.
 There Is no question that Vice Ad- miral Rojestevnsky's squadron will go to the far East. In this connection may point out that the Japanese naval successes thus far have been proven barren, as the Russian squadron at Port Arthur Is practically intact and able to freely leave and re-enter the harbor whenever its commander deems it expedient"

KIDNAPPING IS ALLEGED.
Commotion over the Bringing of H.
 Feree From Canada.

Feree From Canada.
 New Orleans. July 14.-united States Postofflce Inspector Anderson reached here to-day with Horace s. Feree, the defaulting postmaster of Jennings. La, whom he arrested some days ago in Montreal. Both Anderson and Fe- rec expressed surprise when they learned that the arrest had caused a commotion in Montreal and that Ex- tradition Commissioner Lafontaine there had protested to the Canadian government that Feree had been kid mapped and the Canadian courts ig- nored. Dispatches printed here from Montreal to-day said the matter would probably be made the subject of diplo- matic correspondence.
 When the Postoffice Department dis covered that Feree was fugitive from Jennings. Anderson was put on the case. He found Feree had registered here under an assumed name with a woman represented as his wife. He got away before he could be arrest ed. Anderson traced the pair to Cin- cinnati. thence to Chicago, thence to Toronto and finally to Montreal In the latter city he found them located in a fashionable boarding house and living under the name of Brainard. Anderson as without a warrant. When, however. he threatened Feree with arrest the latter promptly agreed to return voluntarily to Louisiana rather than risk an indefinite stay in a Can- adian prison. Thereupon Anderson, Fe- rec and the woman caught the first train out of Montreal and crossed over the border. Feree confirmed Ander- sons statement.

to the Minneapolis baseball team
by the Detroit club in exchange
for the ''best player on the Min
neapolis team at the end of the
season., the deal started the
home fans guessing. who is
the best player?" the question
was asked. One report from
Detroit had it that Gene Ford
was the man, while other reports
included Maloney, Coulter,
Thomas and a few others.
That Ford is to be the price
paid for Greminger is not known
as a fact. Gene will join the
Tigers at the close of the Ameri

month and with him will go Den
nev Sullivan. Minneapolis will

Sullivan has been laid up with 6
sprained ankle for a couple o!

ession of Sullivan is not known
but it is believed that it is the re

but she has books about her and
verses composed in her honor,
while nobody is saying a word
about me-" ''The trouble with
you isl said the wise rooster
that was standing near, "thatyou
don't tell the public what you

waddle off without saying word
but that sister of mine never lays

There is new swindling game
in operation in some parts of the
state that discounts all other
fakes that we have yet heard of.
In the first act of this new style
tragedy a stranger appears on
the road near a farm house dill
gently hunting for a diamond
ring. AS he does not find it he
offers a reward of $500 for the
recovery of the ring and goes
away without finding it. Shortly
afterwards tramp comes along
and picks up the ring, The farm
er, who is to be the victim, offers
the tramp $25 for the ring, think
ing Of the reward. The tramp
hesitates and finally accepts it,
and leaves. AS the farmer does
not find the stranger he grows
suspicious, takes the ring to a
ieweler and finds out that it is
only one of these Montana dia-
monds worth about fifty cents.
