power company was unwilling to con-
cede a reduction in street car fares and

WHAT ORDINANCE PROVIDES.
Full Text of the New Measure Before

An Ordinance.

The following is the fun text Of the
compromise ordinance.
Arizona republican., 1905-03-06

The Japanese on Friday advanced on the Russian position at Snakhe village, but were beaten off. Twice they at tackled PutnoG, but both attacks were repulsed.
 At OUbenspusa a Japanese guard of over twenty batta.ions made thirteen attacks on the night of March 3 and the morning Of March 4 stormed the redoubts furiously. All these attacks were repulsed with heavy loss. The ground in front of the redoubts was strewn with heaps of Japanese corpses.
 The Japanese and Russian artillery are engaged in the heaviest duel of the war. Russian mortars are fired at the Shakhe bridge and the Japanese H. inch guns are in full play but the Rus sian Notifications, on which the Rus sians have been working all winter, of fer fairly secure protection. There is little news of General Kuropatkins op- eratiOnS on the extreme eastern line.
 The carnage at the center and on both Hanks has been enormous. The Japanese in many places simply threw away their lives against the Russian powerful Qualifications in attacks which in the center apparently were intend ed chiefly as a demonstration to cover the driving home of General No~is blow.

RELATED DISPATCHES

Mukden. March 2-CDelayed in trans mission. )-The fighting at PUulolt Hin and on the center closed at dark on Thursday. when 1t was confined chiefly to the west, where the Japanese were re-occupying Smmintin. Two companies also dashed up the Mukden road from Sifangtai without being ar rested. though the Cossacks had been in touch with the Japanese advance posts for two days.
 on March 2 several divisions gave battle west of MulSden from which city the bursting Of shrapnel could plainly be seen. Mukden, which was thrown into confusion. recovered today when it became known that the Japanese had been repUlsed.
 The prisoners captured show that the Imperial guards division. formerly of General Kurokis army, with q few other troops, made the two attacks of the last sixty hours on .he Russian center which have already been report ed. and kept up furious demonstra- tion while the Japanese Hanks pushed back the Russian right and left Hanks.

FOOD ADULTE2ATIONS.
Some of the Results of investigation in
 Connecticut.

New York, March 5.-Of 5000 sam pies of food products of sixty-one diff ferent kinds examined during the last year at the Connecticut agricultural experiment station at New Haven, more than one third were found to be adulterated. according to the ninth re- port, just issued. Cetrain staple ar ticles such a. flour, sugar, cheese, con- densed milk and> tea, says the report have not been found adulterated in that state.
 Most forms of food adulterations at the present time are quite innocuous, apparently, as far as health is con cerned, but are frauds, and consist for the most part of cheap and worth less make weights added to increase profits or meet competition in price. In this clas are ground coffee, spices and cream of tartar.
 Among the forms of adulteration dangerous to health, the report finds that chemical antiseptics, borax and formaldehyde are used largely with milk "as a substitute for cleanliness in the dairy" Of eighty-one samples of tomato catsuo and chilli sauce exam ined seventy one were coiored red with dyes and seventy seven were preserv- ed with salicyIic or benzoic acid.
