is holding it up. The bill was introduced
by Congressman Kluttz, is heartily APP

vent its passage. The only change what

SUIT AGAINST ORDINARY.
For Issuing n License for the Mar
riaEe of IA Girl Under Age.

Columbus, Ca, Sept. 2.-F S.

daughter was married yesterday to
Timothy Whatley, a young man of this
city, to-day formally notified the clerk
of the Superior Court to bring suit
under Section PALS of the Georgia Code
gainst Judge William Redd. Jr., Or
binary of Muscogee county, for $500,

ing only IA years of age and that

ley. that the girl was nearly IS years

ton to the marriage.

ents. The warrants have not yet been

HOW THE BRITISH VIEW
THE LAO YANG BATTLE.
They Do Not Accept the Event ms
Quite Decided.

London, Sept. 3.-English military
critics neither share Tokio's jubila-
ton over the fall of Lao Yang nor lay
stress on the advantage which Russian
dispatches attribute to Gen. Kuropat-
kin's latest move. The best informed
observers here, who have access to
sources of information not revealed in
the dispatches from Toxic and not
given out at ST. Petersburg. declare
that the battle of Liao Yang, however
dramatic and historic in loss of life
and tragic incident. can have no serious
bearing on the eventual issues. unless
the Japanese have surrounded Kuro-
patkin.
London daily newspapers in their
headlines depict the conditions at Lao
Yang as Russian rout," defeat" or
"debacle." Their editorials, in a more
careful vein, point out that the latest
dispatches leave the issues of the
greatest battle of this generation still
in doubt.
From the expert British point of
view, Marquis Oyamas sacrifices will
have been vain unless he is able to
cut off Kuropatkin from Mukden. On
this point there are choatic hypothesis.
The Morning Post concludes a care
full and rather impartial survey of the
four days fighting with the opinion
that the battle of Lao Yang will take
its place beside that of Waterloo and
believes that whether or not Kuro-
patkin's force is able to continue it's
retreat, it will be broken and useless
for some time to come"
The Russian view that Gen Kuro-
patkin by crossing the river divided
the opposing forces meets with slight
consideration as it is pointed out that
all the Japanese units can now attack
simultaneously from different direc-
lions, which eliminates any advantage
to the Russian side and really aggra-
Yates the seriousness of their position,
the Japanese force being superior in
numbers.
The suspense with which the deveI-
opments at Lao Yang are awaited
could be scarcely greater in Toxic than
il is in London

since Aug. %. but in spite of this they
attacked with spirit. The Japanese
are confident that they have already
swept back the strong Russian force
with which they have been engaged.

talls are known it will be found that
a great tragedy was enacted TODAY

The Taitse is flooded and cannot be

from the efforts of the Russians to de-

evacuation of Lao Yang, with the ad

Unofhcial estimates place the Rus

each. These are probably excessive,

Russians exceed the Japanese.
The opinion that the Russian casual
ties in the recent fighting will reach
$4,000 is confidently expressed in high
quarters here. Neither Field Marshal
Oyama nor the Japanese army com
manders have yet estimated the Rus
sian losses.
1t seems that the Japanese avoided
a direct assault upon Lao Yang itself
but devoted their energies to the troops
outside the city. and an effort to cut

strongly fortified, and it is probable
that the Japanese will not attack the
city directly until they have succeeded
