SUMMARY OF WAR
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Field Marshal Oyama reports to
Toxic that a considerable Russian
force remains south of the Hun
river, while General Kuropatkin to-
day telegraphed to st. Petersburg
that the bulk Of the Japanese force
is still south Of the Yen-tai branch
railroad. oyama also says that the
Russians are fortifying the heights
+ on both sides Of the Lilac river at
Telling. Beyond this today's dis
patches from the seat Of war relate
to details Of previous fighting and
mo light is thrown upon the all
absorbing question Of where the
next engagement in force will
occur.
General Kuropatkin's estimate of
his losses In the fighting around
| Liao-yang Is far under the first re-
ports, He reports that from Aug.
% to Sept. 8 he lost 1000 killed
and $4,000 wounded. Marshal
Oyama placed the total Of Japan
ese casualties at 1880, making the
total for both armies in round num-
bers 33,500. Accepting these fg-
ures as correct, the battle Of Liao-
yang in killed and wounded falls
much lower in the scale Of the
worlds great battles.

Rear Admiral Walker Says Work

from Colon that the United States gov

did not anticipate any trouble over

free ports of entry.

Rear Admiral Walker said that the
work Of excavation was now proceeding
twice as fast, and with less men and at
half the cost, as under the French com.
pany. Health conditions, he declared
were excellent and the canal construc.

lied. He declared that statements
which have found their way into the
press relating to political excitement in
Panama were greatly exaggerated
Everything at present seems to be quiet
and satisfactory to the people of Pan.

MORE VESSELS IN PACIFIC
Russia Has Warships Out Looking for
..e.-. Prizes. --..s.-z

st. Petersburg, Sept. Il, 1:4e pm,
The admiralty still declares, 1t is with
out official advices relative to the pres
ence Of the Russian transport, Lena,
at San Francisco. The possibility of
her disarmament and other kindred
questions will not be discussed and de-
cided until the admiralty is in posses
sion of full facts regarding the situa-
ton. Telegraphic inquiries, however,
have elected the information from
VladivostoE that the Lena was sent to
the Pacific with the view of stopping
the shipment Of contraband of war.
There is an intimation also,- but this
is not official, that certain Other. YES
sells, probably merchantmen purchased
in Germany AMI converted into armored
cruisers, are in the Pacific on similar
mission.
If the United States declines to per-
nit the Lena to have ample time in
which to make complete repairs, with
out which she could not venture to I'M
dertake long voyage either back to
Vladivostok or home by way of. Cape
Horn, it seems probable that Russia will
acouiesce in the decision to disarm her.
There is no disposition here to criticize
the course Of the United States so far as
it is revealed in the press dispatches.

ROOM FOR BUT ONE s...
CONSERVATIVE PARTY
Fight of the Future Likely to Be
Between Republicans and
Socialists.
BY w. w. Jermane.


Washington, Sept. 14.-The opinion is
destinies of the democratic party, have
attempted the impossible in this cam
palgn. For eight years, they say, the
party has been party OF radlcallsm,
and even before that the personnel of
its leadership was such as to make it of
that cast, regardless of platform dec
larations. 1t has been the party out
of power, the party of the opposition,
and in the very nature of things it must
have been the radical party. To con-
vert a party of radicals into an ultra,
conservative party, by the capture of
the delegates to it's national conven-
ton is not possible, which fact, it is
commended, is being demonstrated in the
present campaign, and will be finally
proved in November.
Some democratic voters will follow
the party name and fortunes, but there
must be a sloughing off of the radical
vote, which is always floating and in
dependent. The true conservatives
will prefer to cast their fortunes with
the conservative party which is now in
with the organizations of socialists and
populists, as, in many communities, they
are already doing.
Following this movement to- its
ultimate conclusion, there are, those
who see. in the present trend OF affairs

not room for two conservative parties
in the country, is the basis for this be-
lief. Surprising. as is not improbable

ANOTHER GUARD ON LENA
American Naval Engineers Will Inspect
Vessel Today.

San Francisco, Sept. 14.-Another
and more thoro inspection of the Rus

by naval engineers in order to furnish
the state and navy departments with
more complete data concerning her
boilers and seaworthiness.
In the event that the Lena is dis
mantled she will probably be laid up at
the Mare Island maynard. Rear Ad-
miral Goodrich has been directed by the
navy department. to offer the hayward
to Captain Berlinsky for that purpose.
The watch kept on the Lena is even
more rigid than at first. The gunboat
Bennington has moved nearer to her
and the patrolling launches are relieved
every day.
It is reported that Japanese Minister
Takahira has censured the local Japan
ese consul, M. Uyeno, for demanding
that Japanese inspectors be permitted
to inspect the Lena and pass on her
