It Is Reported That Generals Oku and
kuroki Have Combined.
Lao Yang, June 25.-It is reported
that Generals Oku and Kuroki have
Joined forces and are attacking from
the direction of Vafangow. There is
talk of a serious engagement shortly.
1t is also rumored that the Japanese
forces which were recently advancing
in this direction have fallen back on
Feng Wang Cheng.
The state Of tension existing may
be illustrated by the fact that the
value of the rouble fell mysteriously
at the Russo-Chinese bank. At first
this was thought to be the effect OF
the result of the battle of Vafangow,
but 1t was discovered later that Chi
nese from Port Arthur had declared
that the fortress had been evacuated
and that all of the troops had sailed
of on a number of British vessels
The value of the rouble has now re-
turned to the normal
1t Is reported from Yin Kow that the
Japanese are recruiting a number OF
Chinese bandits and are paying them
good wages.

ness In Trade.
New York, June 25.-Bradstre III
weekly review of trade today says:
There has been some enlargement in
demand at the West this week, but the
betterment as yet Is largely one OF
Tone and is predicated upon the un-
auestionably better crop advices re-
ceived from nearly all sections. Re-
ports from the leading industries are
not significant of any particular reac-
ton from the dullness noted hereto
fore. The iron trade appears to be
grounding upon the bottom as regards
prices, and curtailment is becoming
widespread. From the leading textile
industries the story is one of almost
midsummer dullness and of waiting
disposition upon the part OF manu-
facturers. Prices generally, except
cotton and textiles, show few import
ant changes and really evince consid-
cradle steadiness. Railway earnings
for the elapsed portion of June prom
Use to make rather more favorable
comparisons than the early spring
months, while bank clearings betray
irregularity, coincident with varying
influences affecting bank operations at
different centers, and are below last
week and last year. No particular Inn
provement in collections is yet to be
seen, and long spell of warm weather
is still regarded as necessary II retail
trade in seasonable goods is TO be
stimulated.

TO STOP REVENUE WASTE
AND START GOOD ROADS
Representatlve-Eleet Tubbs Going Az
ter Coal oil and Clerical Help.

Jefferson City. Mo-: The matter of
good roads is one which will probably
attract considerable attention at the
coming session of the general assem-
bly,. At least one bill looking to the
creation of a good-rOads fund will be
introduced, that by Representative
Alonzo Tubbs of Gasconade county.
Among other of its provisions. as the
measure is now being prepared. will
be one restricting the inspection of
coal oil and other illuminating fluids
to certain cities and the reduction of
expenditures in the legislature for
clerical hire, the saving I'm both in
stances to go into the goOd-Toads fund.
It will propose that the inspection of
oils be restricted to the following
cities: st. Louis, Kansas City, st.
Joseph, Hannibal, Sedalia. Spring.
field and Joplin. The inspectors at
these points. the bill will provide,
shall be placed upon salaries. to range
from $500 to $500 per annum. All
fees received by these inspectors are
to be turned into the state treasury,
and one-third of the sum so derived
is to be for the benefit of the general
revenue fund, in that way reimbursing
the state for the salaries paid to the
inspectors, and the remaining two
thirds is to be placed in a Specially
created fund, to be known as the good
roads fund. This will form the nu-
cleus. DR.. Tubbs thinks. for the fund.
Then he goes into the expenditures
for clerical hire during a session of
the general assembly, and makes these
figures:
The forti-th general assembly expended
about 100000 on clerical and other help.
Tho Observation-Disclosures the sessi IN

Euture Of Democracy.

One result of the recent election is
apparent in the tendency to return to
the discussion of fundamental, prin-
ciples. In this line the Houston Chron-
icle, after saying that the Democratic
party is founded on immortal princi-
ciples and will never die as long as
men are permitted to govern them
selves and select their own public ser.
wants, says:
mo party can endure permanently
which Is built on foundation of a dol
lar. Commercial and industrial panics
will inevitably come and dollars will
hide and the foundation be swept from
under that party and 1t will go down in
defeat, but the party which holds to
the fundamental principles of consti-
tutional government, of equality of
taxation, of economy in government,
of freedom from foreign entangle-
ments and stands for equal rights to
all and special privileges to none,
will survive disaster and live to re-
deem this nation. The Democratic
party is not dead, but with principles
unchanged, faith mistaken and cour-
age undismayed, will be ready for
1908"
