BY CHICAGO POLICE.
Alleged Bandits Captured After Des.
perate Encounters.

perate Encounters.
Chicago, March 22.-In one of the
most desperate encounters between
police and alleged desperadoes since
the capture of the notorious car barn
bandits four men. suspected of being
implicated in the murder of Fritz
Kreuger, saloonkeeper, early Sunday
morning, were captured by the police
during the day. Almost the entire po-
lice department of the West Side, as
we'll as Central station detectives, par
ticipated in the roundup of the alleged
robbers.
Frank Kreuger, one of the captured
men, was shot through the ear, a. bull
let having furrowed its way along the
back of the skull. It was subsequent
~ reported to Inspector Revere that a
man answering the description of
Frank Papinlienski, Jr, who escaped
during the fight after it was thought
he had been wounded, had been arrest
ed at Waukegan. The man, it is said,
was suffering from a bullet wound in
the back.
The suspects we're arrested at their
respective homes and in every case,
1t Is claimed, the police were forced to
break down doors to make the arrests
and desperate resistance was shown.
Many shots were exchanged between
the officers and the suspected men,
but no officer was wounded.

sER OF MISSING.

Brockton, Mass, March 22.-Under
gloomy skies and with. snow and rain
falling upon them searchers contin-
ued during the day to turn over the
cinders and charred timbers of the
Grover shoe factory in the effort to
find bodies of those who periHhed by
the terrible boiler explosion. The
work, which night had not been suf-
fered to interrupt, was carried on with
greater celerity after daylight and by
an increased force, but the results
seemed to indicate that few bodies re-
mained in the ruins.
Up to o'clock only two additional
bodies had been found, bringing the
total number up to fifty-five. OF these
sixteen had been identified. A few
of the persons reported missing were
accounted for during the day, the list
of employees heard from at noon num-
bering 253. There was still doubt as
to the exact number of persons in the
factory at the time of the explosion
and until this question is settled by
an examination of the books in the
factory vault more definite estimate
of the number lost cannot be made.
Bodies Reduced to Ashes.
Medical Examiner Payne, who has
been at the ruins of the factory almost
continually, said he was convinced
that nothing but ashes remain of many
of the operatives who were caught in
the factory, so that undoubtedly many
victims never wilt be accounted for.
The fingers of many of the victims
laid out at the morgue are worn down
to the second joints, indicating des-
perate efforts to release fettered limbs
before the onward rush sof flames
reached the victim.
When the boiler ploughed its way
upward through the factory many op-
ieratives were blown to pieces, it is
believed, and this is offered rs ac-
counting In part for the discrepancy
between the number of bodies recov-
cred from the ruins and the number
reported missing.
At the Brockton city hospital and
the relief hospital it is reported that
all of the injured passed fairly COM

as could be expected. "a.

CONTINUE TO FALL BACK
RUSSIAN HEADQUARTERS EsrAs.
L,sHEp At CROSSING OF
suNeARl RIVER.

st. Petersburg, March 22-General
Linevitch's headquarters has been es-
tablished for the present at Chenchia'
watzu, situated at the crossing of the
Sungari river, whence he is directing
the retreat of the three armies and
dispos,ng of the fresh troops of the
Fourth corps, just arriving from Euro
pean' Russia. The protection of the
Sungari bridge is vital to the saliva
tion of the army, as the river is not
fordable below Kirin and once the
line of the river is passed and the
bridge blown up the Japanese pursuit
will be effectually checked.
At the same time the Second army
is falling back of the line of the rail-
road, while the First and Third, with
the transport, are retreating along the
mandarin road to Kirin, both destroy
ing bridges and roads and denudfng
the country behind them and making
it impossible for the Japanese to live
in the immediate wake Of the retreat
without their own commissariat. The
japanese are advancing over the grand
trade route twenty miles west of the
railroad. However, they could prob
ably live on. the country, the road just
before the opening of navigation OF
the Lta0 river being crowded with Chi.
nese provisions ON the way to market
southwark
Apparently it is a question as to
which army will outmarch the other,
although the general staff seriously
doubts the ability of Field Marshal
Oyama's fatigued soldiers. with the
difficulties of getting guns, ammuni-
tion and provisions over the ruined
roads, to continue the pursuit ener-
getically.
No information is available regard
Ing the strength of the japanese col
nmn advancing along the grand trade
route, but the war Office says it Is
hardly large enough to constitute q
menace, with the dispositions Line
witch tse able to make of fresh troops.
Nevertheless, St. Petersburg is in the
dark as to the exact situation and,
considering the resourcefulness of the
japanese, there ia constant fear that
they may manage to get astride Of the
railroad and bar the Russian retreat.

Toxic, March 22.-No reports of the
Russian retreat or Japanese pursuit
were received during the day, which
is strengthening the belief that the
Russians plan to hold the line from
Changchun to Kirin. The Japanese
continue to closely follow General
Linevitchs rear guard, but the dam
aged bridges impede their progress
and possibly will create sufficient de-
lay to permit the Russians to recon-
centrate. reinforce, partially reorgan-
ize and construct works at Changchun
and Kirin.
1t is reported that portion of the
Vladivostok garrison has been with
drawn and hurried to Harbin, but no
confirmation of the rumor is obtain
able.
The first Mukden prisoners are ar
irving in Japan. The government has
chartered and fitted out forty steam
