ROOSEVELT HOME SUNDAY.
Thousands Of People Peer Into White
House Windows.

President Roosevelt passed the first
Sunday after his Inauguration quietly
at the White House. Surrounded by
the members of his family and his
house guests, he spent the day in re-
cuperation from the fatigue incident
to the heavy mental and physical
strain which he underwent during the
inaugural ceremonies.
1t was expected that the president
would attend religious services and in
anticipation of his leaving the White
House thousands of people gathered
in and about the White House grounds
as early as $3.50 o'clock.
No restrictions were placed on en-
frances to the grounds. and throughout
the day innumerable thousands of peo-
pie wandered near the historic man
sion. They swarmed about the main
entrance and peered through the
closed glass doors and windows.
The White House. of course, was
closed to all visitors except the per
sonal friends and relatives of the
Roosevelt family. During the day the
president and Mrs Roosevelt received
informal calls from many of such
friends and at both luncheon and din
ner large companies we're entertained.

CAPTURING MUKDEN
JAPANESE FORCING The RUSSIAN
ARMY BACK FROM CITY.
Jsps Fought NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Communication Still open--Japan-
csc Prisoners So Tired They Could
Not Move General Noei's Great
Effort.

St Petersburg. March 6, 1925 a. m.
The fate of General Kuropatkin and
his army hangs in the balance today,
depending on the result of the fight
ing almost in the outskirts of Mukden.
According to latest reports this morn
ing the fighting went well for the Rus
SLAMS, who beat back the wave that
threatened to roll over Mukden as it
had over the Notifications of Port
Arthur, but nothing is known as to
what is going on beyond the line of
breakers; whether part of General
Nogi's force, is in full career for Tie
pass or whether the Japanese have
staked all in cast against Mukden.
The imminence of the peril on the
west wing has withdrawn attention
from the operations on the center and
left where the fighting has been ex-
Lremely heavy, and on the left, es-
pecially, where the Japanese gains are
sufficiently great to cause apprehen-
sion.
In other respects the situation also
resembles that at Liaoyang, the Japan
csc making a costly demonstration to
hold the Russians in their fortifica-
tons on the center and throwing away
the lives of thousands in order to give
the thanking forces an opportunity to
administer a telling blow.
A feature of all accounts of the fight
ing reaching st. Petersburg is the
emphasis laid on the awful carnage.
There is reference after reference to
dead, piled high on the ground over
which an attack was delivered, strew-
ling breastworks, almost hiding abat-
It's from sight and even being used by
Japanese to construct hasty entrench-
ments. The Russian losses on both
tanks are conceded to be enormous,
but it is claimed that the defenders Of
the center suffered comparatively lit
tie by the Japanese bombardment and
beating off the Japanese attack.
The attacks delivered by General
Nogis soldiers were marvellous in view
If the forced marches which they made
for five or six days. recalling the rec
ords of Stonewall Jackson's foot cav
airy They entered the battle with
the greatest dash and fought day after
day with vigor, but those of them who
were taken prisoners dropped to the
ground utterly exhausted and hardly
able to speak. They had not eaten
for two days which accounts in part
for their utter fatigue.
General Kuropatkin's line of COM
munications has not been touched,
though it is in extreme jeopardy.
At the close of yesterdays battle on
the west front the Japanese who were
taken prisoners were unable to walk
or remain awake on account of ex-
haustion, and lay like dead under the
guard. This incident shows the ire
mendous effort back of General Nogi's
engagement.

TURN CAPITAL INTO FARMLAND
Magnificent Ball, Fireworks and Lights
inaugural Night.


Washington, d. c., March 4.-Turn-
ing from the pageant of the inaugural
events of the day. the doubled popula-
ton of the city disposed itself for the
three imposing spectacles of the night,
the promenade at the pension office,
misnamed a ball; the fireworks on the
White House lot and the dazzling
street decorations in honor of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The attendance at the
ball was limited to 10000 or $4,000.
The street decorations were viewed by
solid marching column filing the
wide pavements of the avenue and the
street itself and reaching for two miles
and half
No such brilliant scheme of decora-
ton and illumination was ever wit
messed before in this country or any
other The dome of the capitol stood
white against the darkness. the illu-
limitations of searchlights in the top
of Washington monument being visi-
BILE for many miles. The fireworks
exceeded all previous displays. There
were no ordinary pieces.
The decorations of the ballroom sue
cessfully conformed to the agreement
that every Inauguration should exceed
all previous efforts. All was accom-
plished that could be effected by ex-
tended masses of color, spreading all
about and over the immense room and
its galleries, with miles of evergreen
vines, cart loads of cut flowers, flags
in artistic combination, electric lights
by the thousands upon thousands, and
electric pieces large and small, of I'M
rivalled proportions, carrying 5000 var
led cOlored lights woven into a most
beautiful design.
Instrumental music and the trained
chorus of 500 voices filled the vast
building to its remotest recesses with
the perfection Of musical attainment
In Difference to Sunday all ceremonies
stopped at midnight, but it was well
toward morning before the lights were
turned down on the most brilliant
spectacle that Washington had seen in
its long line of notable occasions. Till
long after midnight the gathered thou
sands walked, wandered and enthused
on Pennsylvania avenue, through long
reaches of fairyland.
With the wee small hours the lights
faded and the citizens rested after
their months of labor
Grandly had the District of Column
bia entertained the nation.

JAP SCOUTING PARTIES MEET
Russian Army Believed to Have Been
Surrounded.

Newchwang, March s.-The last
news from the front is that General
Kuroki's scouting parties have Joined
those of General Nogi, and that they
are already in touch with each other
back of Telling. This at once tells the
peril which besets the Russian COM
mander and at the same time hints at
means which may prove his saliva
ton.
Reports early Tuesday morning show
that the supreme crisis of the great
battle is at hand The vast armies
will, in the course of the day, enter a
great engagement, the issue of which
must be the signal victory of one and
the utter Gripping of the other.
General Kuropki, commanding the
japanese right flank, has thrown his
right wing to the east and northeast of
Mukden, while General Nogi has hur-
ried his powerful briagdes of veterans
TO the west of Mukden, and cooperat-
ing with the much extended and weak
ened japanese lift flank, has, by joining
communications with Kuroki, COM
pleted the envelopement of Mukden.
If this be so, Kuropatkin is sur
rounded and may be caught in hope
less trap. The Japanese forces may
be said to describe circle in 70
miles in circumstances. Its left flank
on. account of its attenuation, is weak
while the extreme left wing, composed
of Nogi's veterans, is believed to be
very fatigued form the rigorous forced
march made from Port Arthur.
Kuropatkin may be surrounded, but
he has a powerful army and a chance
of being able to hurl his troops against
the Japanese left before it can be
strengthened from the center, and there
is bare possibility that the Port Ar
thur veterans may succumb in their
present condition to desperate attack
from the encircled Russians.
