The Japanese Losses.
Rome, Aug. ga dispatch from
Chefoo today denies the enormous
Japanese losses before Port Arthur
as reported Saturday. 1t says the
Japanese losses in the past few days
have been $500 killed and wounded,
including 63 officers.
Information from Port Arthur UP
to August Is shows that the besiegers
have been reinforced by thirty regi-
ments from General Dlu's army.
Garrison Holding Out.
St Petersburg, Aug. 22.--The latest
reports from Port Arthur indicate that
the garrison there is holding out with
wonderful ;tenacity in thel face of per-
sistent desperate assaults. The only
question Is how long any body Of
troops can Withstand such awful pun
ishment, and whether the garrison In
the fortress. can outiast the Japanese
ammunition and men. The report that
80 regiments have been drawn from
Gen. 0ku to strengthen the attackers
is believed to indicate that the Japan
csc southern army is in desperate
straits and seems go show that the
Japanese have not enough men ia
prosecute simultaneous campaigns of
great magnitude in the north and
south.

TO INCORPORATE
IN SOUTH DAKOTA
Farmers Say Fee Would Be
Prohibitery in Any Other
State.

OMAHA, Neb., March 2.-Au was
harmony when the farmers co-opera-
tive convention convened today. The
delegates who yesterday left the hall
again joined forces with the majority.
The constitution and bylaws present
ed by the executive committee were
adopted. A board of nine directors was
then elected, among them being c. E.
Jackson, of Minnesota. The board was
empowered to proceed with the organ
ization and to elect officers and incor-
porate under the new name of the
Farmers National Exchange company.
Nearly all the delegates present sub
scrfbed stock. Earl B. Brown was
made temporary treasurer, pending the
election of regular officers by the
board
The directors elected the following
as officers of the association: II. N.
Gaines, Topeka, Kan. president; H H.
Hanks, of Nebraska City, Neb., vice
president; A. G.. Van Patten, of Van
Patten. Ill. treasurer; Robert Lind
blonl, Chicago. secretary.
] 1t was decided to hold meeting of
the directors in Chicago. April 5. A
A committee was appointed to look
after the immediate Incorporation Of
the company under the laws Of South
Dakota. The reason for choosing
South Dakota is on account Of it's lib
eral laws and the proportienately small
fee required. Incorporation in any
other state, 1t was stated; would mean
prohibitive Incorporation fee upon a
company with $50,000,000 capital
stock. The convention adjourned.

CUBAN WONDER SHOWS
STRONG IN EXHIBITION
Wrestler Goes Through Fast Work-o out
at Y. M. e. A. Gymnasium.

The Cuban Wonder, the worlds mid
dleweight champion wrestler, who is to
meet Jim McAuley, the local champion,
IN st. Paul the night of March 10, has
established his training quarters at the
Y. M. c.. A. gymnasium.
Last night, at the request of Prof.
Fred Burns, the assoeiation's wrestling
instructor. the Cuban gave fifteen min
ute exhibition before the evening wrest-
ling class More than 100 spectators
witnessed the exhibition, Prof. Burns 60
ing ON the mat with the champion. The
Cuban worked easy for ten minutes and
then went after the Y. M. c.. A. teacher
and threw him twice in five minutes, but
it required all he knew about the game.
After the match was over Prof. Burns
said that he was the greatest little man
he ever saw, and that he knew more
about wrestling than any of the little
men who have been in st. Paul. Burns
said:
.He is a freak. He is faster than Me-
Auley which will offset the St. Paul
mans weight but I expect to see the
greatest mat battle offny life at Mozart
hall next Wednesday night when they
meet.
After his go with Pref. Burns the
Cuban gave ten -nainute exhibition with
Erickson, the Terrible Swede- Neither
man tried hard for a fail. The Cuban
was tired and Erickson admitted that
it was impossible to secure any hold on
the Wonder, for he slipped out of every
thing so fast that he lost track of him.
Friday night the Cuban will again work
out with Prof. Burns, and the Y. M. G. A.
members and friends will be admitted
to see the match.

LEADERS WILL PLAY
POST SEASON SERIES
Pennant Winners of Big
Leagues TO Settle Worlds
Championship.

NEW YORK, March 2.-After two
protracted sessions, which were held
in the offices of the National league in
the st. James building today, the Ma
tional league and the American league
committees on rules came to an agree
ment as to certain changes, but the
committees on schedules will meet
again tomorrow in order to adopt, as
far as possible, no conflicting playing
dates for the coming season. The gen.
eral opinion tonight is that they will
have little difficulty IN arriving at an
anieabIe arrangement of dates.
President Johnson, of the American
league, took Frank FarreH.s place. on
the committee on rules, the other two
members being Comiskey, of Chicago,
and Somers. of Cleveland. The Ma
tfonal league rules committee is COM
posed of Hart, of Chicago; Max
Fleischmann, Of Cincinnati, and Han
lon, of Brooklyn.
The foul strike rule, which was
adopted by both leagues last season,
will be retained during the coming
season. A post-season of seven games
for the national championship will be
arranged between the pennant winners
of both leagues. Two coachers will be
allowed with one man or more on
bases. These were the three impor-
tant matters passed upon by the rules
committee, and after they adjourned
the American league delegates held
brief session at the Fifth Avenue ho-
tel, at which the changes were ratified
President Johnson announced that
he had signed the following umpires
for the coming season: Sheridan,
OLaughlin and Connolly, who offici-
ated at the American league last year;
Frank Dwyer, of Detroit, and King, of
the New England league, with Carpen-
ter, of the Southern league, are to be
the reserve unpfres.
The NatfnoaI league club represent
atives met for few minutes at the
Victoria hotel during the afternoon,
but without transactfng any business
they adjourned until 10 o'clock tomer-
row morning.
The following unpires for the season
of 1904 were announced by President
Pullfam, of the National league: Ems
lie. O'Day, Moran and tombstone, who
were on last years staff. and the extra
man will be Kelly. who off1cfated fer
