Tariff Hand Book.

Inasmuch as it is settled that the Tariff
is to be the predominant; issue in the
Presidential campaign of 1904, the Tariff
Hand Book, just issued by the American
Protective Tariff League, becomes OF
special value. An equal amount Of mat

phases has never been incorporated be-
tween the covers of any single volume
There is no question that the Free-Trader
can possibly raise which lie not answered
in this handy book Of ninety six pages.
Every fact bearing upon the Tariff and
it's relation to national and individual
prosperity is herein to be found. Statis-
tics covering almost every field of indus
trial, commercial and business activity are
here presented in we'll orderd form, all OF
them authentic, official and indisputable.
AS all aid to writer's and speakers In the
current campaign, as well as to students
desirous of informing themselves regarding
economic facts and conclusions, the Tariff

MCCLELLAN BOOM.
New York Daily News will Put Forth his
Claims.

New York, June 25.-The New York
Daily News, which has recently changed
hands and has come out as a straight
Democratic newspaper and is recognized
as the organ of Tammany Hall, will to-
morrow print three-pa article advoca-
ting George B. Mcclellan, the present
Mayor, as nominee of the Democratic
party for the presidency. On account OF
the papers policy, knowledge of the pub
lication, has created considerable specu
lation in local political quarters, where it
is construed as indicating the beginning
of strong campaign to nominate Nc
Clelan. The News claims Mcclellan to
be the lone man whose election would
mean certain party success. The eyes Of
the North, East, South and West are
upon him."
McClelan's record on most public ques-
ton is set forth, repeating speeches de-
liyered while he was in Congress.

position along the railroad and retreat to

Unless the Japanese head him of, he will
be we'll on bis way to Mukden by the be-
ginning of the rainy season, or in less than
two weeks. During the rainy season 1t
will be impossible to conduct military
operations.
The Russian war experts here have de-
cided that Port Arthur can hold out for
time, and say that to insist upon General
Kuropalkn going to the aid of the be-
leaguered city would be foolish.
Nothing is known here of the battle re-
ported from Tsshichao in which 3OO,OOO
troops are said to be engaged.
General Kuropatkin reports as follows

Yesterday the japanese attacked oui
