St. Petersburg. March 1- The Russian cause in Manchuria is practically lost. The Japanese have broken the center oi the Rus sian !inc and captured l3 sirge guns. making Kuropa kin's posi- tion most desperate. All reser ts are being rushed to the center, and the western wing of the Russian forces has been completely cut of from the balance of the army. The Japanese are HOW crushing Gener- al kaulbaI's forces north of Muk- den, where the Muscovite lines have been penetrated and the Japs firmly established. Kuropa;kin is making last desperate stand to save his army from being entirely enveloped. It is probable that Ovama will succeed in capturing the whole Russian army.
 Denver, March, 6-Senator Nor gan announced to-day in the sem ate that he hqd been given $50 and promised $500 more if he would vote for Adams. He de- clares that he will file charge, against those giving the bribe. The democrats deny the statement. claiming that it is plot of the re- publican conspirators.
 Cincinnati. March 1- Fifty thousand dollars in bills and five thousand in gold has been stolen from the vaults of the German National Bank. The money was counted in December, and there is no clue to how it could have been removed since then. Detectives have been unable to find any trace of the thief.
 Tokio, March There is great rejoicing here over the news from Mukdcn. The people are jubilant over the quick work done by Oyama in defeating the Russian forces.

The governor, in his annual re- port, speaking of the amendment of Platt to the delegate bill, which says: Nothing in this act shall be construed to imply that Alaska shall at any time become a state," says "The proffered amendment, In text and spirit. proposes to make Alaska a political inferno that all who enter are to leave hope be- hind. If Senator Platt speaks as the representative of the people of Connecticut, it must be of that deterioYated stock which has been so much discussed in the press of that state, and not the stock of the hardy New Englander from t..e time of John Adams down to Charles Summer" This is one statement of the Governor that the opposition press of Alaska, much as they hate to, will have to admit Is exactly right. If there ever was a twaddle headed senator in congress, Platt, with his obstruetionist prin- eiples, is surely the man.

stumped the Secretary.

When Richard Olney was secretary
of state he frequently gave expression
to the opinion that appointees to the
consular service should speak the
language of the countries to which
they were respectively accredited.
II is said that when a certain
breezy and enterprising western poll.
tician who was desirous of serving
the Cleveland administration in the
capacity of consul at one of the
Chinese ports presented his papers to
Mr.. Olney, the secretary remarked:
Are you aware. Mr.. Blank, that I
never recommend to the president the
appointment of a consul unless he
speaks the language of the country to
which he desires to go? Now, sup.
pose. you do not speak Chinese?"
Wberupon the westerner grinned
broadly. "If. Mr. Secretary" said he,
"you will ask me a question in Chinese
l shall be happy to answer it,"
He got the appointment.-New
