Washington, D. c., June 29.-rhe
opposition to the nomination of Judge
Alton y. Parker Of New YORK for
president ON the Democratic ticket is
developing It's plans Today Colonel
James NJ. Gufey Of Pittsburg, came to
Washington and had an extended con
ference with Senator A. p. German of
Maryland, ohm r. Mclean of Ohio, and
ex- United States Senator James
Smith Of New Jersey. They met at
the home Of Mr.. Mclean at Fifteenth
and streets and spent the greater
part Of the day in a discussion Of the
Parker movement. This after
noon Senator German returned to his
home at Laurel. Md, and Colonel
Guhey left for Pittsburg. The great
est secrecy was observed and nothing
was made public at the conclusion of
the conference except that no agree
ment had been reached as to the can
dldate who viii be supported in oppo-
sition to Judge Parker.
It is known. however, that the oh.
iect of the meeting was to canvass the
anti-Parker strength and determine, II
possible, If there was a chance Of de-
feating the New York judge. The fact |
that Colonel Guffey, who controls
Pennsylvania sixty-eight votes, and |
John NJ Mclean. who may control the
fortysix votes OF Ohio, are working
for the same object assures total Of
ia votes as nucleus for the opposi.
tion movement German win be able
10 deliver about forty votes that have
been instructed for him, SO that the
plot to keep the nomination away
from Parker assumes serious proper
ions.

Toxic, June 16. 5 p. m.-The Russian
hope of relieving the pressure on Port
Arthur by threatening the rear of
Gen. Oku, the commander of the Jap
anese forces investing the Russian
stronghold, came to an end yesterday
at Telissu, a point on the railroad fifty
miles north of Kinchow and twenty
five miles north of Vafangow, when
the Russians were out-maneuvered, en-
veloped and sweepingly defeated. They
left more than 500 dead on the field,
and the Japanese captured 800 pris-
oners and fourteen quick-firing field
guns.
The Russians retreated hastily to
the northward.
The Japanese charge that the Rus
slams violated the japanese flag. Ger
tain officers aver that during the fight
ing a body OF Russian soldiers appear
ed, carrying Japanese flag. and that
the Japanese artillery. deceived by this
flag, ceased firing on that particular
body of Russians. Official dispatches
from the Japanese commanders made
specific charges of this flag violation.
1000 Japs Killed or Wounded.
Early estimates of the Japanese
losses at Telissu say that 1000 men
were killed or wounded.
The Japanese attacking force was di-
vided into right and left columns and
began the advance on Tuesday along
both sides of the railroad. They en-
countered the Russians east of Vafan-
dien and drove them back.

Russians held a line between Lung

ARKANSAS DEMOCRATS
ADOPTED A PLATFORM.
Renewed Their Allegiance to the
Kansas City Principles.

Renewed Their Allegiance to the
Kansas City Principles.
Hot Springs, Ark. June 16.-After
discussing for three hours the Plat
form Committees report, the Demo-
cratic State Convention adjourned this
afternoon after adopting the platform
as recommended. The platform says in
part:
THE Democracy of Arkansas, in
convention assembled, renews its al
legiance to the fundamental principles
of government as expressed in Demo-
cratic platforms throughout the ex-
istence of the party and accepts the
platform of principles adopted by the
last Democratic National Convention
as binding upon us as Democrats, un-
til changed by succeeding national
conventions. In view of the near ap-
proach Of the National Convention of
the Democratic party at st. Louis, we
defer to that body a more specific
declaration of principles upon national
questions and pledge the Democratic
party of Arkansas to an acceptance
and cordial Endorsement of the same"
Among the declarations of national
questions, the platform says:
I'VE condemn President Roosevelt,
among other things, especially for his
public and private conduct tending to
stir up bitterness between the different
sections of the country, and to make
the negro believe that he is the So
cial and otherwise equal of the white
man."
The convention reaffiRms the declara-
tion of former national and state Demo-
cratic conventions against trusts, pools,
combinations and conspiracies against
trade whereby prices or rates are fixed
in restraint in any wise of the freest
open competition in any line of busi-
ness. A plank was adopted to the
effect that hereafter the candidate for
United States Senator who receives
the highest vote in the primary cleo
tion shall be declared the party nominee
for that office.
The course of the two United States
senators from Arkansas is approved in
connection with the ratification of the
treaty with Panama, that makes pos
sible at this time the construction Of
the isthmian water way"
