MAKING USE OF RAD1UM.s /

An instrument lately devised by
r. j. Strut makes ingenious use Of
the emanations Of radium. An elec-

sides OF the vacuum tube are par

communicates by q wire fused IN the h

HURRY ORDERS
SAID TO HAVE BEEN ISSUED
AT TOXIC
FOR TAKING MUkDEN
To Pursue Russians and
Force Battle

London, Sept. 1G.-The Daily EX-
press prints a dispatch from Toxic
stating that hurried preparations are
being made for the equipment of at
least 100000 additional! troops which
are to be sent to Manchuria in the
near future, to arrive thare before the
middle of October. This is being done
in order to enable Field Marshal, the
Marquis Oyama to follow up his pres
ent advantage and to carry out secret
orders, recently communicated to him
to begin another attack upon the Rus
sian army at the earliest possible mo,
ment.
The field marshal has been instruct
ed, the dispatch says, to take Mukden
at all hazards and then to pursue the
Russians and force a battle.

CHINESE
Entering United States
via Mexico

Washington, d. c., Sept. 15-Chinese
are entering Mexico by the hundreds
for the purpose of eluding the guards
along the frontier and thus making
their way into the United States. Some
Of the young men have succeeded.
The matter is to be investigated by
immigration Commissioner General
Sargent
1t is said authoritatively at the
bureau of immigration that the point
Of activity in evading the Chinese eX.
clusion law has been changed from
Canada to the Southern republic and
that from now on the inspectors and
line riders may expect to have lively
times.
The Mexican government has en-
couraged the immigration of Chinese
and the United States is beginning to
feel the results.

PEACE TERMS
NOW BEING TALKED OF BY
JAPAN.
DEMANDS To Be MADE
Include an indemnity Of
S5oO,OOO,OOO.

London, Sept. 16.-The Tien Tsin
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph
wires that a circular has been issued
by the Japanese foreign ministry set
ting forth Japans plans in the event of
peace terms being agreed upon. Ac-
cording to this circular Port Arthur as
well as the Lao Tung peninsula is to
be turned over to the Chinese in re-
turn for which the Chinese government
must agree to make Port Arthur an
open port and agree to maintain 1t as
such.
Japan is preparing for the possibility
of declaration of peace in other ways
also, says the correspondent, but does
not expect Russia to see the necessity
of coming to terms until the fall of
Mukden and the occupation of Sakha-
lin. Then Japan will stipulate that an
international syndicate assume control
of the Manchuria railway and conduct
II as strictly commercial enterprise
and not as a military establishment
The indemnity Japan is said to eX-
pect is $500, 100000 and it is more than
likely that in addition to this sum,
Japan will demand the turning over of
all Russian ships in Chinese waters to
become part of the japanese navy.

BANDITS {.
Surrounded by Posse Of
Officers

Des Moines, Ia, Sept. ia tele-
phone message from Wayland, Henry
county late tonight, conveys the in
formation that the posse of Rock Is
land detectives that has been on the
trail of the five men supposed to be
train robbers, working south from Co
lumbus Junction all afternoon have
surrounded the fugitives in a dense
wood after a brief rest for supper and
saw the men clustered around a camp
fire. The posses presence was discov-
cred almost instantly at the same time
and the bandits extinguished their fire
and sprang behind trees.
Not shot was fired, so quickly did
the mutual recognition occur and
darkness rendered it impossible to
shoot without danger of killing friend
instead Of foe. The posse is reported
to have stationed pickets around the
bandit camp and sent for reinforce
ments awaiting daybrealt to begin the
battle which is belineved to be in
evitable. The posse is confident of pre-
venting the escape of the robbers.

No FUSION
OF DEMOCRATS AND POPU.
LISTS IN MONTANA
.HEINZE ELEMENT AHEAD
Toole For Governor by
ACclanation.

Helena, Mont Sept. 15.-Upon the
assembling of the Democratic state
convention today the credentials COM
mittee returned two reports, the ma
jority favoring the unseating of both
the Clark and Heinze delegates, the
minority report favoring the seating
of the Clark or regular delegation.
The matter was carried to the floor
of the convention and at the earnest
behest of Governor Toole a compro-
mise was agreed upon whereby the
belligerents were each given a one
half representation.
BY a decisive vote fusion with the
populists and labor party was defeat
ed.
Martin Maginnis, of Helena was
elected permanent chairman after
which the platform was read and
adopted without dissent. The action
of Governor Peabody in regard to tie
Colorado labor troubles is denounced
in emphatic terms and Parker aud
Davis are endorsed in glowing words
of eulogy. Among the demands for
new legislation include that for the in
itiative and referendum, a direct pri-
mary law, state railroad commits
sion, a fellow-servant law and a con-
stitutional eight hour amendment SO
far as miners and smelter men are
concerned.
Major Maginnis then nominated
Governor Toole who was chosen by
acclamation. Four presidential elect
ors. a congressional candidate and
lieutenant governor were then nomi-
mated and a recess taken.
Heinze was clearly dominant. The
fusion was again voted down tonight

RUMORS
Of Deal Between Q. RI. &
.. and Erie

New York, Sept. 15.-No conflrma-
tion could be obtained tonight from
officers of the roaas concerned, of the
report that the Cincinnati, Hamilton G.
Dayton and the Erie railroad are about
to enter into a traffic agreement by
which the Cincinnati, Hamilton G. Day.
ton will turn over to the Erie its east
bound freight, and possibly run trains
through to this city.
A variation of the report is that this
interchange would be made between
the Pere Marquette, now controlled by
the Hamilton and the Erie at Buffalo,
which city the Pere Marquette reaches
over the tracks of the Michigan Cen
tral. While the stories could not be
confir med, it was not denied that there
is possibility of some such arrange
ment between the roads.

headquarters today and in the course
of conversation with some of the lead
ers gave his opinion of the situation
from a New Jersey mans point OF
view. He said the Democrats of New
Jersey had made one of the strongest
nominations for governor in years, and
the Republicans had made what hl
considers one of the weakest nor
nations. He had no doubt OF the sue
cess of Candidate Black at the polls,
and was also of the opinion that New
Jersey would go Democratic in No.

OM|NOUS
INCIDENT DURING STORM
AT OYSTER BAY.
BANNER LOST EAGLE
Portentious of Political
Disaster.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 15.-Presi-
dent Roosevelts neighbors are dis
cussing in whispers the partial wreck
by storm of the great Republican
banner which is swung over Audrey
avenue near the executive office. Four
years ago a Mckinley and Roosevelt
banner hung in the same place was
burned down. During last nights
wind the Roosevelt and Fairbanks
banner lost its great central eagle.
The picture of the candidates were not
injured in the least but no trace re-
mains of the colossal bird which was
stationed with outstretched wings be-
tween the faces of the standard bear
ers The town prophets assert that
the injury to the banner pOrtends great
disaster to the candidates.
In addition to blowing the middle
out of the ensign, the storm tossed
nine vessels of various kinds upon the
beach between Cold Spring harbor and
Sayville A number of hairbreadth es-
the seamen but no fatalities resulted
and the beached craft are none the
worse for wear.
President Roosevelt this evening ex-
pressed himself as greatly pleased with
the action of the New York state con-
vention at Saratoga in naming Frank
W. Higgins for governor. When Pres
dient Roosevelt was governor of the
state, Higgins was chairman of the
state senate finance committee and
they became very well acquainted.
No visitors were received at Saga
more Hill today and the only stranger
there, United States ambassador to
Austria, Belamy Storer, who had re-
mained over night left for his home at
LenoX, Mass, on an early train.
