Nfovements in the Ear East

London Jan. 27.-It is reliably stated
ia diplomatic circles this morning that
General Kuropatkin's offensive mov' :
ment, reported from General Kuroki's
headquarters, is due to orders which he
has received from ST. Petersburg to take
this step 10 create diversion and draw
attention from the internal Russian
affairs. If this statement Is authentic,
there is every probability that the
forward movement at the Shake will be
an extensive one, despite the bitter cold
and the consequent suffering of the
soldiers.
St. Petersburg, Jan. 27.-The Gar has
sent six sacred pictures to the third
Baltic squadron at Libau, which, it is
nov announced, has arranged to sail
tomorrow. His majesty also sent a
telegram ex blaming that be cannot
personally bid God speed to the officers
and men The announcement that the
vessels will sail tomorrow is given no
credence here.
st. Petersburg, Jan. 27.-General
Kuropakin, reporting on the resumption
of the offensive by the Russians, to the
south of Muk len, says in right flank
advance two hamlets were occupied and
200 cattle captured.
Berlin, Jan. 27.-The Lokal Anzei-
ger has dispatch from Mukden stating
that General Kuropatkin's advance and
the consequent fighting, have assumed
the proportions of general engagement.
There have been heavy losses on both
sides. The battle, the dispatch says,
is being most holly fought in the centre.

STSTERSVILLE, w. Va. Nov. IS.
The last grand jury sitting for Ty.
Ter county returned an indictment
against Theodore Morrow, of Lincoln
district, charging him with having
committed heinous offense upon a
young woman by the name of Ella
Shuman, who is about twenty years
old and resides with her parents at
Pursley. six miles back in the coun.
try from this city. 1t appears from
the evidence given before the grand
jury that on the night of the 4th day
of July, 1905, Morrow and the young
woman left Sistersville on horseback
for their home or the place where the
young woman was working at that
time, which was six or seven miles
away, and on the road considerable
of whiskey was drunk by both par.
ties. sufficient upon the part of the
young woman to produce intoxica.

helpless AMI without any power of

criminal assault was committed upon
her by Morrow and most of the night
spent. Morrow surrendered himself
at once ana gave bond to the sum of
$1,000 and was released.
The first information of this crime
having been committed was given
publicity by the finding of an indict.

such grave character, that con
