THE PAST WEEK OF THE WAR.
No Positive Military Developments oe-
= 49, cIIHrAd

No Positive Military Developments oe-
CURED.
There were no positive military oe-
velopments in the far east last week.
The Japanese continued entrenching
in the early part of the week, and there
were constant outpost skirmishes. Al
Port Arthur the Japanese made a
fierce attack on Etz mountain, but the
resistance was SO obstinate that II
could hardly be said that any SUD-
stantial gain was made by the be-
siegers.
There was an engagement OF some
severity on the Shakhe on Tuesday,
when the Russians opposed to the
army of General Oku took the agrees
sive. 1t awaited nothing, for the Rus
slams were repulsed with considerable
loss. On Thursday the Japanese took
the offensive south of the Hun river
and succeeded in capturing three vii
lagos, but the Russians recovered
themselves and, taking the aggressive,
drove the Japanese back to their old
positions and recaptured the villages.
The loss was considerable on both
sides.
Throughout the week there were
several bombardments of the Port Ar
thur forts, and those of Rihlung and
Sunsung were silenced. The Japanese
continued to creep closer to the be-
sieged garrison, but nearly every adj
vance was made with heavy losses.
There was a rumor that General
Stoessel had shown willingness to
talk of an armistice, but it was not
confirmed The reports from several
of the more reliable correspondents
were to the effect that the conditions
in the beleaguered fortress were des-
perate, owing to death, disease and
lack of supplies, but there were no
signs of capitulation.

Street Car Scheme, Which Will Cost
Over $4,000, GOO.


Consulting Engineer George w.
jackson has submitted to the Chicago
council committee on local transport
tation plans for an underground loop
system. They make it practicable and
serviceable to put in operation the one
fare streetcar proposal without the is
suing Of transfers; render grade cross

able cars from different divisions OF
the city to be transferred to whatever
division they may be directed to; pro-

go underground to any station desired;
give room for municipal utilities and
appliances for corporations operating
under license as well as for utilities
they may wish to install, leaving space
for future developments; take care of
present sewers and make provisions
for new sewer system in connection
with high pressure water system.
The total length Of the subway and
routes suggested is 50,702 lineal feet,
and the estimated cost is s1S,577, 31S.
The engineer says the subway can be
completed in 80 months.

GENERAL KUROKl Is DEADI
FAMOUS JAPANESE OFFICER is
STRUCK BY SHELL.
He Died at Liaoyang on October -
Body Sent to Japan General Nodzu
In Temporary Command Of Late
Generals Army--ArmIes still Very
Close to Each Other.

Nemirovich Danchenko, the well
known Russian war correspondent OF
the Associated Press, telegraphing
from Mukden, says the reports of the
death Of General Kuroki are confirm
ed. According to his version, the spin.
ter Of a shell struck General Kuroki,
tearing out portion of his breast and
abdomen. He died October 4 at Lao
yang, and his body was sent to Japan.
"A rumor is persistently circulated that
a kinsman of the mikado, Siassinii,
literally third prince" has been ap-
pointed to succeed General Kuroki
but the actual command of the army
has been entrusted to General Nodzu,
who is reviewing operations.
For the last week." says Danchen-
ko. I'VE have practically not advanced
to any point on the whole southwest
front even verst further than we
stood on October 5. On the contrary,
we at several places have been oblig-
ed to retire several versts, but the
present lines of defenses must be con-
sidered permanent, in view of the
strong Notifications constructed. The
Japanese positions at several points
are only 800 PAGES distant from ours
and must be considered to be definite
" occupied by the former. The lat
ter's Notifications are acknowledged
by all competent persons to be skilful-
ly constructed. Their trenches in
many places are SO cleverly concealed
as not to be noticeable a short dis
lance away, the earth removed being
carefully thrown in front of the trench
es. The general position causes a
great tension on both sides.
Alarming news has been received
from Port Arthur, but the absence Of
reports during the last few days make
it evident that the movement of one
Of the other Russian armies will be
dependent upon the course of events
there.
ION November IL scouts on our
right flank attempted to pierce the
line of the Japanese Notifications, but
We're met with stubborn resistance,
and finding the enemy strongly rein
forced, retired"

STAYS WHOLE FAMILY.
Victims Are Shot Before the Torch Is
Applied.

ftPRuSos
Auburn Gait is now known that
Julius Weber, his wife, their 10 year
old daughter Bertha and their son
Paul, aged IA years, were murdered
by an unknown assassin. who set fire
to the home in an effort to cover up
his crime. Before the fire had made
any great Roadway the bodies of the
mother and two children were rescued
from the burning house. Mrs. Weber
and her boy were still alive, but died
almost as soon as they reached the air.
An examination of the bodies show
ed that Mrs. Weber and the children
had been murdered before the fire had
been started. The daughter had been
killed by a pistol wound, as had Mrs.
Weber. On the boys head were sew
eral deep cuts. He had also been
shot All efforts to reach Julius Web
er, the father, who was also thought
to be in the burning house, were aban-
doned until today, when a search was
made in the embers, and his body was
found in the bathroom. He, too, had
been shot down before being left to
be consumed by the flames.
Later Report.
Auburn, Cal.-Adolph Weber has
been placed under arrest charged with
the murder of his father, mother, sis
ter and young brother Thursday
night, and with having set the house
on fire afterwards to conceal the
crime. Weber took his arrest coolly,
but was alive to what he considered
to be his legal rights. The arrest took
place Immediately after he left the
witness stand and after he had rather
reluctantly answered the questions
propounded to him by Coroner Shep-
ard, the district attorney and several
of the jurymen.

Look Out for Them.

The following is going the rounds
OF the country press:
Agents who claim they are repre-
senting reliable houses in Portland
and Seattle are working clever
scheme to defraud the farmers.
Their game is to call on him and IN
troduce themselves as representing
certain company and solicit orders
for tea, coffee, spices, ETC. After
the agent has secured a goodly sup
ply of orders, he returns to the city
to have them filed. As matter OF
fact he has been sent out by an UNI
scrupulous house to sell their goods
under a SPECIAL brand. These goods
are of such inferior and adulterated
stuff as to be unfit for human con-
sumption. The orders for coffee are
filed at wholesale price of IL cents
per pound-the farmer paying 80
cents per pound, profit of 20 cents
on every pound, OF So. 80 for every
% pound order. All orders for
spices and extracts are filed in the
same proportions. 1t is an easy
graft to work as the farmer has
foolish old fashioned notion that he
is beng overcharged by the local
merchant of his town, and thinks he
has an opportunity to ''get back. "
AS a matter of fact it is pernic
iods form of highway robbery, to
a not only is the farmer robbed, bu
the local merchant is defrauded on
of the trade that rightfully belong
to him. The money that rightfull
belongs to the town and communlt
is taken away from it, The harI
done is unlimited and we can onl
