FOR CONTROL OF PARTY
New York Bosses PIatt and Black Sale

New York, April 12.-The Sun. which
for years has been friendly to Senator
Thomas G.. Plat and has supported him
in his efforts to lead the republican
party in the state, says today that an
offensive and defensive alliance has
been entered int between the senator
and former Governor Frank S. Black,
with the object Of contesting the cor

Former Governor Black was Odells
candidate for senator to succeed De
pew this winter, but Depew won. hanos
down, and the sincerity Of Ode,Is sup

friends and others. An alliance with
Black would probably give the anti

ter disorder, lost their formation and
went fligzag. The Japanese closed
in and pressed them towards the Ne
gotta coast
The fight lasted until Z o'clock in
the evening. The correspondent con-
tinues:
Togo risked nothing and lost moth
ing. Darkness brought glorious
night with smooth and transparent
seas. The Russians were edging
northward with the powerful Japan
csc fleet in a horizontal line across
their bows, forming an effective bar
rier. Then under searchlights and
the cover of the big guns of the war
ships, the Japanese torpedo f1otilla
began like locusts to sting and sink
the enemy, the Russians continuing
to return the gunfire. At o'clock in
the morning the fighting was fierce
and intense and no rest was allowed
the Russians.
with dawn of Sunday the Japan
csc fleet came into still closer range.
All day long the battle continued, and
by evening was raging off northern
Nagoto. The Russians were power
less to offer any effective resistance"

London, June 3.-The Toxic CORE

of him RojestvensKy was practically
defeated within few hours, and was
caught in a trap which had been wait

He displayed hesitation in his tactics

concentration of fire reached its zen
it'll in the afternoon AS the Russians
advanced in the direction of Vladi-
