NO MORE ARRESTS
MADE IN CINCINNATI.

Cincinnati. Nov. 23.-No additional
arrests were made here to-day in con-
nection with the alleged plot of strik-
ing molders to destroy the Eureka
Foundry with dynamite.
The day passed quietly at the foun-
dries. Chief interest centered in the
arrest of Joseph F. Valentine, pres
ident of the Iron Molders' Union of
North America, in Cleveland. The
charge against Valentine is aiding and
abetting in the malicious destruction
of property. The warrant for his ar
rest was sworn to by President Henry
G.. Gosiger of the Eureka Foundry
Company a personal friend of the ac-
cused. A detective from this city
started for Cleveland late this after
noon. to bring Valentine back to this
city.
Another detective went to Detroit for

The cases of Fred Rauhauser Jr.,
and Fred Rauhauser. Sr., John Hook,
Joseph Hollowell and Joseph F.. VAL
entine were called in Police Court to-
day, and on motion of their attorneys
their trial was set for Dec. ID. All
Of the above named are now in GUS
tody except Hollowell, who has not yet
been arrested. There are eight cases
in all, William Friend, alias Patton,
being already indicted for the murder
of Samuel Weakley. Friend, in an in
terview to-day, denied all knowledge
of plot to kill Weakley or any other
non-union molders. He said he killed
Weakley in self-defense.
Young Rauhauser to-day repeated his
confession made yesterday. He insists
that BOOK made the arrangements
with him to place dynamite cartridges
in the molds at the Eureka Foundry.
Hook later brought i'm Hollowell, who
he claims went with him to Valentines
Office, where the latter agreed to pay
him 800 X he succeeded in destroying
the Shear punch. He stated that the
dynamite cartridges were given him by
Hollowell.

OF A BIG BATTLE.

ENpecteu Ihnt the Initiative Will

St. Petersburg, Nov. "a, 2:25 a. m.-
Appearances again point to the possi-
bility of big battle south of Mukden.
The japanese, according to an official
report, have received a severe setback
in the vicinity of Sintsintin, in which
direction they apparently were at
tempting to execute a wide turning
movement.
Military opinion here scarcely be-
lieves it possible that the two great
armies can winter less than a rifle
shot distant from each other, though
the heavy defenses on each side make
it extremely difficult for either to as
sumo the offensive. 1t is believed, how
ever, that if the deadlock is to be
broken Gen. Kuropatkin will let. Field
Marshal Oyama take the initiative, as
the Russians have the better of the
present position, namely strong line
of defense and Mukden behind them,
making satisfactory winter quarters,
where the Russian achievements are
now accommodating for an advance next
spring.

commissariat wagons have been OBJ
served going eastward, and some artil-

Gen. Kuropatkin has permitted men
who have captured horses to sell them

families of men killed in battle.
Fodder is becoming exceedingly

The spirits of the men are good and
the food is satisfactory. The rations

night, as it would be impossible to do
so during the day, because the Japa-

FIVE SUBMARINES HAVE
REACHED THE JAPANESE

Toxic, Nov. 2S.-Five submarine
boats arrived at Yokohama to-day.
The submarine boats referred to in
the dispatch from Toxic are probably
the five boats shipped from Quincy
Point, Mass, early in October over
land to the Pacific coast. They were
valued at nearly $4,000, 900 and were IN
derstood to be intended for Japan.
The boats occupied seventeen steel
nat cars and six box cars. They were
shipped in sections and each car was
carefully covered with canvas. which
concealed the contents. There was not
the slightest mark on any of the cars
to indicate the contents or the destina-
ton and those who made inquiries on
the subject received the stereotyped
answer that the covered masses were a
part of a large shipment of machinery
destined for the West
