USE ENGLISH TONGUE
John Morley Talks Of influence Of
America at Carnegie Institute.

Pittsburg, Pa: Not since the open
ing of the Carnegie institute, ten years
ago, has greater variety been indicted
into the exercises of annual Founders
day than Thursday, when John Morley.
Great Britain's famous historian and
parllment leader, made the principal
address. Edmund Aman-Jean, a dean
of the international art jury, spoke in
French of the influence of American
wealth upon art, and Seth Low, former
mayor of New York, delivered an ex-
temporaneous talk we'll adapted to the
occasion.
Andrew Carnegie founder of the In
stitute, remembered the occasion in an
encouraging letter, and the report Of
the secretary, Samuel Hardin Church,
indicated prosperity in all departments
of the institute. An American arti-
san captured the first honor In the de-
partment of fine arts.
President w. N. Frew introduced the
Rt. Hon. John Morley, who came from
England at the solicitation of the foun-
der to deliver the principal address, Of
the occasion. Mr. Morley said in part:
1.-THE persevoring absorption and in
corporation Of all this ceaseless torrent
of heterogeneous clements into one
united, stable, industrious and pacific
state is an achievement that neither
the Roman empire nor the Roman
church, neither Byzantine empire nor
Russian, nor Charles the Great, nor
Charles ", nor Napoleon ever rivaled
or approached"
After referring to the growth Of
English-speaking peoples and the prob
ability that before the end of the cen
fury they will compose four-flfths Of
the human race, Mr.. Morley touched
upon the growth of Liberalism, which
he considered in many parts of the
world synonymous with progress, and
spoke on the number of political and
social revolutions due to it. He said
federation in religion was the best
fruit of the past four centuries, and
much of this was due to America.

JAPS AGAIN FAIL
TO TAKE FORTRESS
Six Days Of Terrific 6ombardment
Ended Thursday.

st. Petersburg, November 5, 2:40
a. m.-Great relief is felt in view Of
reports indicating that the Japanese
assaults on Port Arthur have been UNI
successful. A direct report from the
Russian Consul at Chefoo says he has
received information from q Chinese
source that Japan finally relinquished
the attempt on November 3, the Mi
kado's birthday, after losing enor-
mously.
The Consul says the carnage was
awful. The bombardment continued
six days without intermission. The
Japanese preached and took Fort No.
8, but, according to the informant, were
forced to abandon it, owing to the con-
centrated fire from the supporting for
tiflcations.
No confirmation has been received
here Of the report that Gen. Stoessel
was wounded
Among high officials at the War Of
fee, where the true conditions inside
the fortress of Port Arthur are known,
General Stoessels ability to hold out
against the efforts of the Japanese
concentered on it during the last ten
days is regarded as marvellous, but no
confidence in the ultimate result is
entertained. Officers have been pre-
pared to hear that the fortress had
fallen,

tives, limiting their markets for dis
posing of grain; also their purchase
of supplies. The co-operatives may re-
sort to the courts.

BANK ROBBERS
KILL CASHIER
Bandits Are Driven From Town Be-
fore They Secure Any Money.

Cody, Wyo.: The First National
Bank of Cody was held up at $3.50
o'clock Tuesday afternoon by two ban
dts, and the cashier. II. r. Middaugh,
killed.
The robbers rode into town, went
straight to the bank and dismounted
One entered the bank and the other
held the horses outside. Cashier Mid
daugh refused the robbers demand
for money and was shot and instantly
killed.
The noise Of the shooting brought
a crowd to the bank, but the robbers
had fed instantly after the shooting
without further attempting to get mo-
ney.
All the available men in town were
soon in hot pursuit Of the fugltives,
who headed for the "Hole in the
WALL" famous wilderness refuge for
outlaws.
Just before dark Tuesday night one
of the posses pursuing the bank rob-
bers encountered the men twenty
miles southwest of this place, and a
sharp battle occurred.
Sheriff Chapman's horse was shot
from under him and one of the rob-
bers wounded. The outlaws secured
fresh horses from a ranch and con-
tinued their flight.
The bank officials, when the robber
made his demand, answered with a
volley from their six-shooters. With
out attempting to gather in the cash
that lay in q tray on the counter, the
thief backed out of the building, firing
as he went.
Middaugh followed the robbers into
the street and opened fire.
One Of the outlaws returned the
shots and Middaugh fell, dead. The
robbers mounted their horses and fed
through the town.
The populace was aroused by the
shots, and the people fiocked to the
streets and opened fire upon the re-
treating bandits The latter seemed
to bear charmed lives, however, for
they were unhuTt and dashed across
the prairie.
An officer quickly gathered a large
posse and started in pursuit. Big re-
wards have already been offered for
the capture of the daring outlaws,
dead or alive, and their arrest is al
most certain. Posses have been start
ed from Basin, Meeteets, Garland
Billings and other towns, and unless
the fleeing robbers get assistance from
the ranchers along their route, they
will be run down.
Cashier Middaugh went to Cody
from Wheatland, wy, four months
ago and established the First National
Bank. The two outlaws, although
they have been hanging around Cody
for several weeks, are unidentified
They are believed to be notorious
characters, however for their daring
work was not that of novices.

RALDWIN's AIRsHIP
BACK AT THE FAIR
Baldwin says 1.-THE Arrow Is only
Slightly Damaged After Night out.

st. Louis: The remarkable series
of misfortunes whichWednesday upset
the dirigible airship owned by Capt.
T. S. Baldwin of California and oper-
ated by A. Roy Knabenshue Of To
ledo. Ohio, was brought to a singular
elimination at Sis o'clock Wednes-
day night, when the craft escaped
from the concourse attaches who were
towing her homeward and was waited
into oblivion before her owners had
time to realize what had happened.
When last seen the ship was riding
the wind in the direction taken by
Knabenshue on his hours drift Of
Wednesday afternoon and within a
space Of fifteen minutes was lost TO
view.
The accident, like all the recent
performances of the Baldwin craft,
was a record-breaker in aeronautics.
WIN her enginese motionless and
without a hand at the rudder, the
airship drifting aloft at the mercy
of the elements, defying the best-laid
plans of the aeronautic officials for a
spectacular stTaightaway flight Thurs
day afternoon. At a late hour We'd
nesday night nothing had been heard
of the missing California Arrow"
although every searchllght that could
be pressed into service in the vicinity
of the Exposition grounds lighted the
skies throughout the night in a fruit
less quest for the tramp airship.
The Arrow made her escape in full
view of hundreds, while she was being
carefully lifted over the Intramural
trolley wire at the east entrance OF
the Stadium. She was carrying her
self with her own buoyancy. Knaben-
shue and his assistants holding her
with two ropes-one forward and the
other at the rudder. The forward rope
was thrown over the trolley wire, and
at a command from Knabenshue the
rear rope was released. The ship
ducked suddenly forward, carrying
Knabenshue, who held the forward
rope off his feet. The wind caught
the craft, whirled her about, and i'm
PEELED her toward the west Knaben-
shue, his fingers scared by the slid
ing rope, released his hold and the
ship ducked away the dusk swallowing
her as she made her way toward the
woods which skirt the western border

ship was uninjured, save two small
rents in the bag, which can be re-
paired in half hours time. The car,
the motor, the rudder and the propell-
er were all safe and intact. The slight
rents were the only indication that the
ship had made landing without the

The heavy weight in Quo Vadis"

so much after all. John Sinott did
almost the same thing yesterday to a

hood sought back seats on the tall
timbers piled on the wharf. John took
the middle of the arena with a rope.
