RUSSIANS FEARFUL
FOR PORT ARTHUR
st. Petersburg Realizes that the
Garrison S Case Is Becom-
ing Desperate.
LARGE GUNS POURING
SHELLS ON THE TOWN
sakharohf Reports Probable At
tack Of Japanese on the
Russian Left.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 2.The official
reports from Toxic. describing the des-
perate assaults on Port Arthur, be-
ginning Oct. &c, have created visible
depression at the war office. The sus-
tanned character Of the bombardment
the walls by underground mines, and,
above all, the fact that the Japanese
government, after weeks Of silence re-
garding the operations Of the besiegers,
has given out these reports before ac-
tual success has crowned their efforts,
convinces the military authorities that,
after long preparations, General Nogi
carry the fortress, but feels 50 conf
dent of SUCCESS that the results Of the
preliminary operations have been made
The authorities believe that the as
sault was timed for the announcement
of the fall of the fortress to made upon
the birthday Of The mikado tomorrow,
tenth anniversary Of the accession Of
Emperor Nicholas, and a great Rus
sian holiday. Tomorrow, therefore, it
is expected will be marked by fate for
a day of immense rejoicing either for
Japan or Russia, according as the pres
ent assault succeeds or fails.
The waE- office Is trying to buoy up
the Russian hopes with reference to
the long and successful defense Lieu
tenant General Stoessel has thus fa1
conducted; but things have now
reached such pass with the garrison
and the character of the present at.
tempt upon the fortress is evidently sc
determined, that the authorities frank
ly admit they would not be surprised
If the end was at hand. In the face
Of the gloomy reports direct from To
kio, the Invalid Russ, the army organ
today announces that the storming op
erations ended with q repulse Of the
Japanese son Monday, but the paper
fails to give it's authority for this i'm
warranting it has been received by the
war office. =.

Special to The Journal.
Butte, Mont, Nov. 2.-Attorney Con
F. Kelly, one Of the leading counsel for
the Amalgamated Copper company, in
cratic rally last night, declared that
three Amalgamated lawyers were pass
ing on abstracts Of titles to the mines
Of F. Augustus Heinze with view of
taking the properties over.
On April Is a contract was signed be-
tween Heinze and James w. Forbis, by
which, Kelly said, Forbis was to receive
a commission Of per cent on the pur-
chase price to be paid for Heinze's in
terests in the event that Forbis pro-
NOTED 8 sale.
A syndicate, with John W. Gates at
the head, was formed for the purpose of
acquiring Heinze 8 mines for the Anal
gamated, and as an emissary of Mr..
Gates with Attorney Leonard of
:Heinze's legal staff, Kelly went to New
York and opened negotiations with H.
change Of negotiations, Attorney Kelly
declared, are now locked up in the safe
of the Thornton hotel.
MIR. Kel]y's statement caused much
surprise in the city and there is dis
position to accept the sell-out story
despite Mr.. Heinze's declaration that
he is in Montana for the purpose Of pro
tecting it's people against the encroach
ments of the Standard Oil.
Clark Confirms.
Senator Clark has confirmed the re
port of the sale by Heinze for NOR,
than 100000 of his mining interests
In Montana to syndicate repre-
sented by Gates and Belmont. MI
Clark said today:
fThe transfer will be actually mad
about the middle of January and tn
property will eventually pass into tn
possession Of the Amalgamated Cope
company. This will bring the Montan
! war to a close"

Eew York Sun Special Service.

Chicago, Nov. 2.-"P Political condi-
tions in Missouri now Justify the state;
Congressman James R. Tawney today.
Mr.. Tawney- Is chairman of the repub1i-
can national speakers bureau, and de-
clares that the democratic stronghold Of
Missouri will cast its electoral vote for
Roosevelt next Tuesday.
The significant thing about Mr.. Taw-
pey,'s announcement; is that he is willing
TO be quoted to that effect. The re-
publicans have been hopeful this year
Df wrestling Missouri from the demo
cratic column, but not man at head
quarters. would allow, himself to be
quoted in this connect ion. This reti,
cence was not wholly due to Chairman
Cortelyou 8 policy Of "say nothing and
saw wood. - The fact was, the aver.
hge republican politician has been afraid
to talk about carrying Missouri for fea,
of being laughed at after election.
Senator Fairbanks trip thru the state
and the unprecedented campaign waged
by the state managers, however, are
said to have made such an impression
that. good judges believe that Missouri

WHY NELSON GOT
INTO THE GAME !
Senior Senator Learned that the
Anti Clapp Movement In
volved His Own Seat. e

It has just come to light that Senator
Knute had some reason to become
frightened and demand new hand at
helm Of the republican state machine.
It is learned upon good authority that
the senator had been fully informed
of the compact which had been entered
into between r. G. Dunn and Joel Heat
wole whereby in return for support for
the governorship, Heatwole was to; be
backed by the administration for
United States senator to succeed Moses
Had the revelation stopped at this
point, there Is no reason to doubt but
that Senator Nelson would have kept his
hands off and let the junior senator fight
his own battles. But coupled with 1t
he also received an intimation that his
own seat was being plotted for. sena-
tor Nelson was not the man to be wor-
woie Or the other fellow, but tAe when e he
was informed by his :. friends, who
claimed to have the facts at their com
mand that Heatwole and his colleague
to be were likely to unite their forces
he evidently reached the conclusion that
an ounce of prevention was worth a
pound of cure and took immediate steps
to head off any serious conclusions to
himself.
That Heatwole was true to his agree
ment with Dunn Is shown by the fact
that one time when things looked dark
for Dunn, the former suggested that il
| there was any question about the lat
ter's ability to secure the nomination
over Judge Collins without the aid Of
Clapp, Dunn was at liberty to enter into
any combination with the senator which
he might find to his interest, and per
mission was given to offer Heatwo1e =
support with his. This offer was made
more than month before the state
convention and was indignantly re
sth the povernorsh}p il" in Ha d IS b ~1,

SUDDENLY
TURNS TO BRYAN.
Hopes of Conservatives Dashed by
Apparent Alliance with
Radical Leader.
Reorganization Of the Demo cratic
Party Will Be on Old
Bryan Lines.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Nov. 2.-The sudden
conversion of Parker from 'conserva-
tive'' candidate with "a judicial tenn
rivaling Bryan in demagogy; his tele-
gram Of congratulation to Bryan and
his abandonment of his early plans at
the behest Of Bryan old managers,
have startled democratic national lead
ers here who had hoped that this year g
campaign, If not successful, at least
would close with the "reorganizer !"
chinery. a. .,.s
Judge Parker's conduct has com
PEELED them to abandon that belief. He
has given Bryan the right to say that
the only life in the campaign followed
a line Of attack similar to that made in
1896 and 1900, and to claim the right
Of supremacy for the old Bryan crowd,
if not Of actual leadership for Bryan
himself. 4
This is regarded here as the most seri-
Gus phase Of Parker's surrender to
Organism, for no democratic leader con-
tends privately that Roosevelt can be
Bryan's Main Thought.
Bryan's main thought is on the con-
dition Of the democratic party after
election, for it is not forgotten that in
early July, when he believed that he
would be in the minority, and an out
cast, Bryan gave notice that reorgan-
election to take the party out Of the
control Of those who dominated the st.
Louis convention.
Bryan then expected that Parker
would hold to his plan Of "conserva-
tive' candidacy and that his views as
to the issues Of the campaign and the
manner Of presenting them would be
ignored.
Now that his views have been &C.
the democratic canvass is under full
swing in the old Bryan way, it is be-
lieved here that Bryan will be stronger
after election than he has ever beer
| before. Parker cannot now repudiate
him or his platform. ..,.-
Good Work for Naught.
That is the serious phase Of the pres
! emit situation within the democrati,
| party and democrats here do not hest
| tate to say that 1t means that all tn,
good work accomplished at St. Louis il
now lost. s.
They haven't lost Bryan, as they
hoped to do. On the contrary, the
have intrenched him more strongly thar
ever, and engrafted his demagogy OF
the partyrexcepting, Of course, 16 t,

quarrel with anyone. Bryan is gla,
to be relieved Of that dead issue. Obvi
ously he cou1dn t cast It out himself
hence he is glad to have others do i
for him.
Parker's surrender to him, it is in
terpreted here, means that a Bryan
Parker coterie is to be in control of tn
party, with Hearst as a partner.
