TOGO MAKES REPORT
CAPTURED SHIPS REACH JAPAN
JaPan's Losses Very smaII-None Of
Her Warships or Destroyers Sunk
Emperor commends Togo and

Toxic, June Admiral Togo re-
ports that all the captured ships sent
to Sasebo have arrived and that their
crews have been landed. Admiral Ro-
jestvensky has entered the naval hos
pital.
The report that Vice Admiral Enquist
was captured proves to have been a
mistake, caused by the misinterpreta-
ton of wireless kilograms.
Admiral Togo also reports that two
Russian hospital ships, which accom-
panied Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet
into the straits of Korea May 9th,
were suspected of violation of The
Hague convention and besides, owing
to the greatest necessity for strategic
protection, he detained them tempe
rarily and conveyed them to Sasebo
May 28th.
By direction of the Emperor, Ad-
miral Ito has instructed Admiral Togo
to allow Vice Admiral Nebogatoff and
other Russian officers to transmit a
report of the battle and a list of cas-
ualties and prisoners to the Emperor
of Russia. The officers of the battle
ships Orel and Nikolai and the coast
defense ships Admiral Apraxine Senia-
vim, are to be permitted to return to
The damage to the Japanese fleet,
Admiral Togo says, was slight. Only
three torpedo boats were lost. No war
ships or destroyers were sunk
The Emperor has issued the follow
ing rescript to Admiral Togo:
Our combined fleet encountered the
enemy's fleet in the Korean strait and
after several days desperate battle
annihilated it, accomplishing an unpre-
eedented defeat
I'VE are glad that by the loyalty of
our officers and men we have been en-
obled to respond to the spirit of our
ancestors.
Though the war be long. we hope
that you will be loyal and brave and
secure a successful result"
To the navy the Emperor issued the
following rescript:
Our navy with the best. strategy
and greatest courage annihilated the
enemy's squadron and answered our
hope. We appreciate deeply your
splendid success"

Denies Loss of eromoboi.

ST. Petersburg, June 1.-The admir-
atty denies the report telegraphed to
the London Express that the cruiser
Gromoboi of the Vladivostok squadron
had been sunk with nearly 500 men on
board. A message from Captain
Broussikoff, her commander, was re-
ceived last night, which. it is believed,
was sent to Vladivostok by wireless
telegraph.
Vice Admiral Skrydloff, who was re-
ported to be on board the Gromoboi, is
In St Petersburg. The Gromoboi
sailed out Of Vladivostok Saturday, as
soon as Admiral Rojestvensky was re-
ported to have arrived in the Straits
OF Korea, but the admiralty declines
to say whether the Gromoboi was en-
gagged.

PORTLAND FAIR OPEN
LEWIS AND CLARK EXPOSITION

Vice President Fairbanks Makes Prin-

Touches Electric Button and Starts
Machinery.
Portland, Ore, June with the
gentle touch of a hand upon a golden
telegraph instrument President Roose-
welt, from the White House, yesterday
gave the signal which formally opened
to the world the Lewis and Clark cen
tenEial exposition, monument to the
memories of Captains Merriwether
Lewis and William Clark, the pioneers
who. 100 years ago, blazed the trail
which opened up to the world the "old
Oregon country"
more suspicious day for the open
ing of the exposition could not have
been desired. The literary exercises
which preceded the formal opening of
the fair were of extraordinary excel
lence. The speakers were Vice Presi-
dent Fairbanks. Speaker Joseph Can
non of the House of Representatives
man Tawney of Minnesota, Mr.. H. A.
Taylor, assistant secretary of the
Treasury Department, Governor Cham
berlain of Oregon and Mayor Williams
of Portland
When President Goode of the Lewis
and Clark Exposition took his posi-
ton on the speakers stand to an
nounce that the ceremonies were
about to commence he was greeted
with terrific applause from tens of
thousands OF people. and similar DEM
onstrations of happy people greeted
all the speakers of the day, perhaps
the greatest enthusiasm being aroused
by the appearance of Mayor Williams
and Speaker Cannon upon the rostrum.
The program was carried out with
but few changes in the original idea.
A feature which was looked forward to
with great expectancy, the playing of
America" upon the Ginning bells in
the government building, was unavoid-
ably omitted. the electric apparatus by
which the chimes are operated being
found out of order at the crucial mo
ment.
When all was in readiness for
President Roosevelt to give the long
awaited signal from the White House
f-TtSlutHl bOUut VI the tApOolllOh iOi-
warded him the following telegram:
president Goode of the Lewis and
Clark Centennial Exposition extends
greetings to the President OF the
United States, and has the honor to
announce that the exposition manage
ment awaits President Roosevelt's
pleasure in transmitting the electrical
energy to ring the chimes in the
United States government building
and start the machinery of this ex-
position"
Almost instantly. through thousands
of miles OF wire, flashed the single
"click" which formally opened the ex-
position. releasing hundreds of flags to
the breeze and setting the machinery
in motion
Mr. Goode received the following
telegram from President Roosevelt:
Il congratulate you and those asso-
ciated with you in concentrating
this occasion. | hope and trust that
the great enterprise you have under
taken will be fitting memorial to the
sturdy explorers, who, in the service
of their country. faced the perils and
hardships of vast unknown territory.
| send greeting to the representatives
of foreign countries who are co-operat-
ing with us in fittingly celebrating the
100th anniversary of this event, which
means so much for the expansion OF
our country in the far Northwest.

How often do we hear women say: 1T
seems as though my back would break, !"
or Don't speak to me, 1 am all out of
sortsp" These significant remarks prove
that the system requires attention.
Backache and " the blnes" are direct
symptoms of an inward trouble which
will sooner or later declare itself. 1t
may be caused by diseased kidneys or
some uterine arrangement. Nature
requires assistance and at once, and
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound instantly asserts its curative
powers in all those peculiar ailments of
women. 1t has been the standby of
intelligent American women for twenty
years, and the ablest specialists agree
that it is the most universally success
full remedy for woman's ills known to
medicine.
The following letters from Mrs.
Holmes and Mrs. Cotrely are among
the many thousands which Mrs. Pink
ham has received this year from those
whom she has relieved.
Surely such testimony is convincing.
Mrs. ] G. Holmes, of Larimore. North
Dakota, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:--
81 have suffered everything with backache
and womb trouble-I let the trouble run on
until my system was in such a condition that
/ was unable to be about, and then it was

much suffering would have saved, should
have taken it months sooner-for few
