The perils that beset the war cor
respondent in his labors for the en-
lightenment Of mankind are well illus
trated in the incident which took place
between Shwan-Tai.Tse and ErdikO
last week. Lewis Etzel, OF the London
Daily Telegraph, was slain outright by
Chinese soldiers and Ernest Brindle,
of the London Dali Mail was wounded.
II was not IN battle that the shots
we're fred which struck these men.
Had il been in battle perhaps the Incl
dent would have been classed as one
Of the expected incidents Of war. But
to be killed or wounded away from the
smoke and roar Of the fight; to be
shot down by hands nor engaged in
the war but merely itching for human
blood seems a fate altogether unsuited
for the active and courageous war cor
respondent.
While the incident seems incon-
grnoas to the average newspaper
reader, IL will not strike the CORE
spondents generally as anything out
Of the ordinary. Such things as being
assassinated when safety seen- as
sured are expected by them. They
take their life in their hands the mo-
ment they approach the war zone and
from that time until they leave it is a

be in all places at once and exposed
to dangers unknown to the actual
belligerents.
The life Of the war correspondent is
cloaked in romance so far as the pub
lie cansee, yet beneath the CLOAK
thore is ever the rough garment Of
hardship and suffering that must be
worn in silence and kept from view.
Seldom do the readers oI war news
know at what cost the descriptions OF
battles were gathered. Perhaps the
well rounded sentences and the
graphic details we're written as the
correspondent sight grew dim with
hunger or thirst or fatigue Nothing
Of the labor spent in getting at the
news or in shaping it up for the cables
to transmit is permitted to creep into
the story Only the fight. the charge,
the repulse. the slaughter must be
shown there. What does the public
care for one mans trials when there
Is a story Of a thousand men slain?
II Is only when his labors are end
ed by bullet or death in some other
form that the correspondent comes in
for his share Of the public attention.
Even then his share is usually para

HEARsr CLAIMS A LAD.
(Globe Democrat.)

A1i1bt AttAAONl dls
William r. Hearst figures out that
he is still ahead in the race for the
Democratic nomination for president
According TO the head Of his literary
bureau, the New York editor has $50
delegates of those already chosen,
while Parker has IFS, German has AZ
and Olney ard Wall have smaller num-
bers This is not exactly the way
that the rest Of of the political arith.
metic men outline the situation, but
the Hearst boomers give some figures,
and possibly in the grand roundup
they will turn out to be correct.
It is certain that the Parker move
ment has not acquired anything like
the momentum that many persons ex-
pected. The judge is picking up dele
gates every few days, but he Is not
making srch gains as his supporters
predicted. There are good reasons 10
suppose that he will lack a majority
Of the cony yention on the first ballot,
whatever may turn out to be the case
on the subsequent divisions. Some of
the olney men are saying that Park
er's canvass has had the effect OF
rallying the conservatives against the
radicals and that thus 1t will have a
salutary influence in the campaign.
They declare, however, that some
strong and outspoken man will get
most of Parker's vote after the first
ballot and that the judge will be
dropped.
Whether this view be correct or not,
Hearst is reasonably sure OF getting
heavy roll in ST. Louis. He has said
that he viii support the candidate OF
the convention, whoever that person
age chances to be His friends are
saying that this promise is easy, for
he expects to be the candidate him
self. He is getting delegates with
some regularity, even if not with the
rapidity which some of his friends
promised a few weeks ago, It is GER
tain that he has not given up the con-
test, as few of his enemies said re
Gently he would do before the conven-
ton met. Hearsts chance lies with
the uninstructed delegates, who are
far in the preponderance among those
already chosen. His friends are do
ing some missionary work among
them, and nobody can tell how this
will leave the division on the first bal
lot. The New York editor has many
skiTfuI workers among his retainers,
and some of these will be busy with
the uncommitted delegates from this
time to july G. It 10 too early to pick
the winner at st. Louis yet.

TRADE REPORT.

Dun's Weekly Review of Trade says:
Business improves steadily, and there
is no evidence of anxiety regarding the
future. Payments are more prompt
ly met, tending to stimulate prospects
for coming trade, and the disposition
to limit purchases to immediate needs
is gradually disappearing Conserva-
tism during the summer and autumn
had beneficial effect, reducing stocks
to low point. AS demand broadens
this scarcity Of supply operates for
quick delivery and prices are strength
ened. Aside from imitation caused by
speculation, there is no better sign OF
commercial progress than advancing
commodity markets.
All the leading branches of manufac-
ture are in better positions.
Wholesome progress is recorded in
the iron and steel industry, sentimen-
tai improvement being succeeded by
actual business.
Limited supplies maintain hides in a
very strong position, and some lines
are bought on advance of sailing.
Raw wool has again advanced and
is an important factor in the situation.
Commercial failures last week in the
United States were 229.

JAPANESE WORKING HARD ON

Gates the Japanese to Force Russians
Out cf Mukden-Want II for Winter
Quarters.

Mukden, Nov. 7-Quiet continues
here. The Japanese are still working
hard entrenching their front. which
begins to look like continuous fort.
1t is believed they are preparing seri-
ously to advance, making their front
strong, possibly in order that it may
be held by small force while the
heavier force engages in fanking
movements. The japanese have learn
ed by bitter experience not to expect
much from frontal attack They are
obliged, however, to maintain a strong
front to prevent General Kuropatkin
from breaking through their line and
carrying the war to their rear
There is considerable evidence to in
dicate that the Japanese will make
every effort to force the Russians out
OF Mukden, not only for the moral
effect on Europe. but on China as well.
Mukden is extremely important to
them as winter quarters.
The Japanese continue to receive
reinforcements, and it is believed by
Russian military men that their only
chances for success in an advance
movement lie in that fact.

STREET CARS WRECKED.
Los Angeles Electric Road Cuts Up a
Score Of Passengers.


Los Angeles.-At least 40 persons
were injured, some of them seriously,
in rear end collision on the Long
beach electric road. The car from this
city to Longbeach had stopped at a
crossing just this side of Compton to
take on a passenger. There was a
dense fog prevailing. The car contain
ed 33 persons.
Hardly had it stopped when a work
car containing about 40 Mexican la
borers and two foremen, which had
been closely following, crashed into it
at full speed. Not a person on the
passenger car escaped injury and some
of them have received frightful cuts
and bruises.
Motorman Seamons of the work car
was badly and perhaps fatally injured.
He stuck to his post and yelled to the
men on his car to jump. Some of them
did so and were injured in that way.
A car bound to this city from Long
beach was stopped opposite the wreck
and many of the injured were placed
aboard it.
While standing there a work car
which had been following it through
the fog bumped into it and more peo-
pie were injured. some of those who
had received injuries in the first col
lision being again injured in the sec
ond one. So far there have been no
deaths. The injured are being brought
to the hospitals in this city as fast as
possible.
Both the cars in the first collision
were smashed to kindling wood and
the passenger car which received the
impact of the second accident, was
badly shattered, but was run to the
city,
