conflicting reports regarding fighting
at fort No. ;. Two batteries in the left
wing bear this number, as does also a
strong fort to the left of Etzshan fort.
me Tort near Etzshan is believed TO
nave been the object of the fighting
reported from here yesterday, for with
the japanese in possession Of Etzshan
1t would be comparatively easy for
them to capture the adjoining strong
hold.
This move brings the Japanese ad-
vance guard close to the section OF
Port Arthur known as the new Eu-
ropean settlement. japanese here ex-
plain that their army may even enter
the residence and business districts OF
Port Arthur, but that this would not
necessarily mean the fall Of the Rus
sian stronghold.
The Russian defenses are arranged
with the idea Of resisting as long as
there is man left, and the nature Of
these defenses suggests that the final
stand will occur at the Tigers Tail or
Liaott Mountain, or both.

BOXES FOR ASHES OF DEAD.
Curious Indication of Japanese Prep
aration for Great Battle.

LIAOYANG, Thursday, Aug. 25.-Ac-
cording to the best information obtain
able, the japanese are prepared for a
desperate attack on Liaoyang, in
which, the japanese say, they are con-
fident Of success. Siege guns have been
sent from Yinkow to Tatchekiao, In
tended for use against General Kuro-
patkin's position.
A curious indication at the Japanese
positions Of the methOdical preparation
for a big battle is the fact that 10000
wooden boxes, in which it is intended
to place the ashes of the killed, who
are TO be cremated on the battlefield,
have been delivered in the neighbor-
hood Of Liaoyang, and that 500 Chinese
have been engaged to burn the bodies
Of those who may be killed
The present disposition of the Japan
csc forces is as follows: General
Kuroki. with 100000 men, is between
Khoyan and Gutziatsya; General
Nodzu. with $1,000 men, is on the line
between Simoucheng and Khalin, and

Baltic Fleet, Now on Trial
Cruise, Contains Five
Battleships.
Vessels Probably Will Pro-
coed to a Rendezvous
at Libau.
Russia May Decide Not to
Disarm the Diana at
Saigon.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 26.-The
Baltic fleet, which sailed from Kron-
stadt last night on trial cruise. con-
sisted Of twenty warships.
The fleet consists of the battleships
souvaroff (iagship). lBorodino. Alex
ander III, Oslabya and Orel; the cruis-
ers Dmitri Donskori, Aurora. Zemtchug,
Izumrud and Almaza, and the trans
ports Okean and Kamtchatka, with a
number OF torpedo boat destroyers.
While it is officially stated that the
fleet is bound on a trial cruise, it is
believed by many that the warships
will not return to Kronstadt unless in
the case Of a serious breakdown, but
that they will put into Libau, where
they will be joined by the auxiliary
cruisers, Golfers and torpedo boat de-
stroyers built at Libau and RevaI, and
there await their ultimate start for the
Far East.
No decision has been reached, so far
as known here, by the French author
tiles regarding the duration Of the stay
of the Russian cruiser Diana at Sal
gon, French Indo-China. 1t is under
stood that her damages are not serious
and if France demand her. disarma-
ment she will put TO sea and possibly
return to European waters.

T1LE-LAYERs ARE LOSERS.
Denied Injunction Sought to Prevent
Employing Builders Lockout.

NEW YORK, Aug 26.-On the
ground that the agreement is not a mu-

Justice Dickey to-day denied an appli-
cation by the Mosaic and Encaustic
Tile Layers for an injunction to re-
strain the Building Trades Employers
Association from ordering, maintain
ing or continuing" a lockout in an al
legged violation of an arbitration agree
ment entered into between the associa-
ton and representatives of the labor
unions on July 3, 1903
In his opinion Judge Dickey said the
action was an entirely new one in the
courts. but he came to the conclusion
that the arbitration agreement was not
enforceable by the means sought, or by
any other method, for the reason
stated.
1T is we'll settled" said the court,

ploy and discharge any one he pleases,

SEEMS
TO Be DISTANT
Committee of Aldermen APP
pointed by Mayor Unable
to Settle Chicago Strike
BOTH SIDES ARE HEARD
Packers Reiterate the State
ment That Services of Ar
bitratOrs Are Not Needed

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-The conference
of the committee appointed earlier in
the week to attempt a settlement of the
stockyards strike with the parties to
the dispute resulted in nothing. There
is no present prospect of peace, and
the chances of an agreement between
the packers and the strikers being
reached appear very meager. The strike
leaders appeared before the committee
this morning and stated their side of
the case. They did not suggest to the
Aldermanic committee that it make any
overtures TO the packers, but simply
gave their side of the case. Represen-
tatives of the packers then appeared
before the committee. After a session
that lasted three hours, Mayor Harri-
son said:
1.-The packers have said just what
they said before: that they are run
ming their plants and have nothing to
arbitrate, and that there is no reason
why they should confer with the men
We heard a review of the entire strike
trouble. and the packers say that in
every city, except Chicago and Omaha,
the strike is over and they assert that
70 per cent as many men as they en-
ployed in Chicago before the strike are
now turning out 90 per cent of the nor
NAL output"
Labor leaders tonight announced
that in all probability the butchers
strike would be settled peaceably'' be-
fore next Wednesday. They declined
to explain the cause of their belief, but
were positive in their statements that
the strike would not be called off.

NEW YORK, Aug. Exchanges by
the Bar Association against George AL

port has been filed with the appellate
division of the Supreme Court. Refer
ring TO the Northern Pacific stock al
legged to have been the property of
Power, the referee said:
THE certificate was never assigned
to Peter Power, as far as anything ap-
pears on its face, nor was it ever de-
livered to him. 1t does not appear that
any consideration for any stock of said

The whole proceedings, to my mind,

CALL BUREAU, HOTEL BARTON,
WASHINGTON. Aug. 2s.-There is
unanimous agreement among those Of
hcers who have made a study OF imui-
grafton that citizens OF pure American
blood are rapidly growing scarce. Con-
tinuoUs excessive immigration, the su-
preuacy o. foreigners in many lines
Of business and race suicide among the
old American families are the princi-
pal reasons 70 which this condition
is attributed.
A prominent Official Of the Bureau
81 immigration said:
The trend in that direction is so
certain At present that I have often
wondered il some day We would point
at some old man or woman in Connec-
ticut or Virginia as the last OF the
pure American race. just as now We
point 70 the few shriveled Indians out
West as the last Of the original Amer
leans.
In New England the disappearance
u pure American families is particu-
'iarly noticea bic. In Boston most Of
the prominent merchants and business
men are foreigners. The manufactur-
ms establishments and farms are in
the hands OF foreigners. In a visit

KURoKrs PLAN OF ATTACK.
japanese Armies on Three Sides OF
Kuropatkin's Position.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 26--After
a four weeks interval the japanese
have resumed their advance against
General Kuropatkin's positions. The
opposing armies are in contact east
and south Of Liaoyang and fighting
has been in progress since Wednes-
day. The advices at hand are too
meager to enable the officials TO form
a correct opinion as TO whether it will
result in a general engagement, but the
extent and character Of the Japanese
movement leads 70 that conclusion,
Since the rains ceased a week ago
there have been continued intimations
that General Kuropatkin was about to
assume the offensive, but instead Of
that it was the japanese who attacked
the Russian commanders eastern and
southern positions. A japanese col
umn, $4,000 strong, was reported on
Tuesday TO be marching UP the right
bank Of the Liam River, which would
seem TO indicate that three japanese
armies are cooperating in enveloping
three sides Of Liaoyang. From the
meager accounts received it appears
that General Kuroki selected Tantzia-
pudze as the point for his attempt to
drive the wedge into Kuropatkin's out
er defenses at Anping and Landau
sian, which are situated, respectively,
ten miles northwest and southwest Of
Tantziapudze. the latter being on the
Liam River. eight miles above the con-
fuence OF the Taitse River, whence a
mountain ridge runs westward.
The fact that the japanese are pre-
pairing pontoons at the Taitse River
was noted in these dispatches several
days ago. The capture Of this bridge
will be the first obstacle of the Japan
csc and doubtless will entail severe
fighting, in which the japanese proba-
bly, count on the superiority of their
mountain guns. If they be successful.
the Russian position at AnpIng and
Liandiansian viii become precarious.
Their operat tons IN Anping are sup
ported from Gutziatzy, three miles
higher UP the Liam River and along
the Taitse River, as shown in the dis
patch reporting that the Russian front
south Of the Taitse River was engaged
and that General Kuroki was stimuli
taneously moving on Liandiansian,
along the high road, as reported from
Liaoyang last night, and by the fact
that another japanese column is NOV
ing on Liandiansian along the south
road from Siaolindzy, ten miles north
east OF Haicheng.
That General Kuropatkin has fore
seen these various movements is shown
by the manner in which the attack on
Tanzapu was met and by the repulse
Of the japanese at Siaolindzy.

JAPANESE BATTERIES sENCED BY FIRE OF RUSSIAN GUNS
IN FIRST STAGES OF THE GREAT CONFLICT AT LAOYANG
Tokios War Board Is Said to Have Given Up Hope of
Taking the Port Arthur FOrtreSSes by Storm and
Decided Upon Prolonged Siege Operations.

PARIS, Aug. 27-The Toxic cor
respondent of the Matin declares that
the Japanese Minister of War has con-
there is no hope of taking Port Arthur
by direct assault and that long opera
lions will be necessary. Therefore the
Minister has ordered Field Marshal
Oyama to avoid attacks entailing
heavy losses. This, the correspondent
says, has been concealed from the pub
lie.
Raymond Recouly, correspondent Of
the Temps at Liaoyang, telegraphs as
follows to his paper:
Il was fortunate this morning to
travel with an American naval at
tache Lieutenant Newton A. McCully),
who has just returned from Port Ar
thur after a sojourn there Of three
months. The news he gives me is en-
tirely different from the pessimistic
reports current lately concerning the
situation at the fortress.
The American attache left the fort
ress on August IA. The Japanese were
then four and a half miles from the
city. The Russian positions upon a
chain of rugged hills 200 meters high
were protected by trenches, mines, net
works, barbed wire and cannon, and,
according TO the American officer, It
was impossible TO take them by as
sault. Japanese shells fell into the
city, but each position possessed a dug
out, in which the occupants were able
to secure shelter. The Japanese heavy
guns ceased firing every night, fearing
that the Russians would detect their
exact location by the flashes during
the darkness.
There was a considerable stock Of
provisions at Port Arthur. The Rus
sian soldiers had a fresh meat ration
daily. The reports that Russian Off
GERS were subsisting on onions and
black bread were absurd inventions
The stores were still open and the pop
ulation promenaded the streets.
THE regiments took turns in the
trenches. Part of the garrison was al
ways resting. The Russian sailors as
sisted In the defense Of the fortress
They made excellent sharpshooters.
The heat has not been unbearabIe.
The American attache believes that
the japanese losses have been very
heavy-at least ten times those of the
Russians.
In short. Port Arthur can hold out
much longer than people believe"
