APPEAL TO ROOSEVELT
Made by Tyner, Asking Chief Eseeu'
tive to Retract that Public Charge
Of Corruption.

A washington special says: James
n Tyner, who was removed from Of
fee as assistant attorney general for
the Dostoftlce department during the
investigation in the department, and
who recently was tried and acquitted
by a jury, has addressed letter to
President Roosevelt in part as follows:
"Sir-Ia November, 1908, on the
strength Of certain charges contained
in a report by Mr.. Bristow, the fourth
assistant postmaster general, you gave
to the press of the country statement
to the effect that gross corruption in
The case of Assistant Attorney Gener-
al Tyner has gone on for number Of
years. and after referring to me as
the chief offender you say thai in my
case the corruption took the form of
favoring get-rich-quick concerns and
similar schemes, in other words, the
criminals whom it was (my) sworn
duty to prosecute, paid (me) for per-
mission to fleece the public unmolest'
ed After thus giving your official
opinion as chief magistrate of the ma

fact that there were three indictments
pending against me, and you called
upon a jury to do its duty.

official proclamation of my assumed

Forces at Niuehwang May Be
Cut Off from Base OF
Supplies.

A St. Petersburg special says: The
Japanese have taken Siu-Yen, driving
out the Russians. The enemy appears
to be advancing on Hai-Cheng.
(Hai-Cheng is located between Lao
Yang, the present headquarters OF Gen.
eral Kuropatkin, and Kai-Ping, the
junction of the Port Arthur railroad
and the line running to Niuchwang.
The capture of this place would COM

Kuropatkin Reports.
The emperor received from General
Kuropatkin the following telegram
dated June 8:
"The Japanese bombardment June
8 of the coast between Senyuchen and
Kaiping, caused no loss of life and no
material damage, though a considera-
Bile number CT charges were fired. One
man doing hospital duty was fatally
wounded and two wagons were dam
aged. -..
June Z the Japanese slowly contin-
ued their march towards Siu-Yen by
the Taku-Shan and Feng-Wang-Cheng
roads. Their advance guard did not
approach nearer than five miles south
and east OF S!u-Yen. On the morning
of June s a Japanese infantry brigade,
TWO mountain batteries and five squad
rons Of cavalry marched against Stu
Yen. About II o'clock the Japanese
appeared before the town on the south
side, but were checked by very sue
cessful fire from our batteries.
Japanese infantry then began ad-
vancing against the town from the
east by the Feng-Wang-Cheng road
and came in contact with the Cossacks
holding the pass. After two hours
fighting the Cossacks were obliged to
retire and our artillery opened fire
along the pass, not allowing the jap
anese to establish themselves. At this
moment a Japanese mountain bat
tery arrived and took a position to the
south, but after firing few rounds
was silenced by our battery. 4 Sec
ond Japanese battery did not succeed
In getting into action, but was COM
PEELED to evacuate its position under
the fire of cur guns.
'In the course Of the fight flank
ing movement by several battalions
of Japanese infantry was observed
north Of. Siu.Yen threatening our line
of retreat. Consequently our Cossacks
gradually withdrew five miles from
Siu-Yen, keeping up their fire from a
battery on dense cvolumn OF the
army at a range Of 600 yards. The
fire slackened about in the after
noon. Among our losses were Chere-
missineff, chief Of the Cossacks, Cor
net Komaroyski and Lieutenant Colo
mel Possokhoff. To all appearances
| the Cossaeks were engaged with
| troops of the tenth division.
"In the affair of June Z at Vafan-
cow, we had one rifleman wounded, but
| the japanese sustained considerable
I losses. According to the testimony OF
| residents, they had forty killed or
