JUDGE PARKER NOT COMING
Changes His Mind About His Trip
to st. Louis.
Says That In All Probability He VIII
Not Leave ROsemOunt Dur
fn the Campaign.

Esopus, N. Y, Sept. 3.--There was
considerable surprise at Rosemount,
Friday evening, when a correction was
made of statement issued in the
morning to the effect that Alton B.
Parker and his wife had completed
their arrangements for st. Louis trip.
1t Is now announced that Parker has
changed his mind in regard to the
trip. and in all probability will not
leave Rosemount again during the
compaign. 1t Is understood that good
reasons were presented to Parker in
argument against the proposed trip,
and that the abandonment Of the pro-
gramme is the result. So far as is now
intended, Parker will make no
speeches during the campaign.
William e. Ryan, Of the Devery as
ISOLATION in New York, and Capt.
Charles Campbell, retired sea captain
OF New York, called at Rosemount,
Friday, ostensibly to ask Judge Parker
to make clear in his letter of accept
ance the plank in the democratic plat
form in relation to marine commerce
Capt. Campbell said that ship-owners
are not in favor Of subsidy bill, but
that they do want protection against
unfair competition with foreign bot
toms. After talking shipping at
length, they brought up the subject of
the governorship nomination for New
York state, and suggested that Con-
gresham William Sulzer is best
equipped to save the party from the
inroads made by the popularity Of
Thomas E. Watson, the populist can
didate for president.

OYAMA SAYS LAO

The Japanese Are Now in Com
plete Possession.
CESSATION OF FIERCE FIGHTING
1t IL Reported In st. Petersburg
That KuropatlSinA Has Arrived at
Tiehling, which 1t Eighteen
Miles south of Mukden.

The only direct news from the seat
of war bearing Sundays date came by
way of Toxic, in a report from Field
Marshal Oyama, saying that Lao Yang
fell completely in the hands of the
Japanese at nine o'clock that morn
ing; that the Japanese casualties were
believed to be heavy, and that moth
ing was known by the Japanese con-
corning conditions ON the right bank Of
the Taitse river.
The only comfort for the Russians
at home was the news conveyed
in dispatch from Kuropatkin, dated
Saturday afternoon, that Gen. Stakel-
berg's first Siberian army corps Of 25,.
600 men, reported Saturday as having
been cut off to the westward of Lao
Yang, had been safely extricated, ana
that the corps has succeeded In join
ing the main Russian body on the
night bank of the river, but no details
of the escape Of Stakelberg are known
Gen. Kuropatkin also reported that
the greater portion of his army was
at the time of filing the report, south
Of Yentai (ten miles northeast of Lilac
Yangs), and a few miles from the Ken
tai mines, where fierce fighting had
been in progress. 1t is indicated that
there has been a cessation of the
fierce fighting Kuropatkin reports that
his men were not being much interfered
with by the Japanese in the neighbor-
hood of his army.
In st. Petersburg, the absence o.
news is looked upon as heightening
the gravity Of the situation for the
Russians.

ALL TOXIC REJOICEs.
POpulace Madly Cheer the Exploits
of Field Marshal Oyama.

POpulace MadIy Cheer the Exploits
of Field Marshal Oyama.
Toxic, Sept. Beyond Field Mar
shall Oyama's dispatch reporting the
occupation Of Lao Yang, and the COM
mencement Of Gen. Kuroki's turning
movement against the Russian left,
nothing further concerning the battle
Of Lao Yang had reached Toxic Sun
day. Neither the number of Russians
no succeeded in escaping nor the
number encompassed by Gen. Kuroki's
turning movement is known here. The
severity Of the Russian defeat hinges
largely Oh Kurokls movement. If
successful, the number Of Russian
prisoners will be large. The meager
reports received indicate that the SOL
diers of both armies went to the limit
of human endurance and suffered ter
ribly. 1t was impossible constantly to
supply them with food and water, and
the men have fought for days past,
starving and parched with thirst.
Although full details are lacking, the
duration of the fighting, The numbers
engaged, and the losses so far reported,
indicate that Lao Yang will prove to
be one of the greatest battles Of his
tory -
The dispatch received from Field
Marshal Oyama announcing the fall
Of Lao Yang had the effect Of cheering
all of the subjects Of the Mikado.
Throughout the rejoicings here, fol-
lowing the early successes of Japanese
arms at Lao Yang, the more thought
full people feared the results of the ex-
posture to which the right wing of Gen.
Kuroki's army was subjected and 1t
was held possible that the strength of
the Lao Yang Notifications would per-
NIT the withdrawal of the bulk of the
Russian forces there. Even now there
is doubt concerning the number Of Rus
SLAMS who have escaped, but there is
no doubt about the character of the
victory at Lao Yang.
Toxic is brilliantly illuminated, and
joyful crowds, parade the streets,
cheering the exploits Of Field Marshall
Oyama and Generals Oku and Nodzu.
