ATTACK BRITISH VICE CONSUL
WORK OF GROUP OF HUSSARs IN
STREETS OF WARSAW.
He Received Severe Sword Cut Across
His Face--consul Murray Had Mar
row Escape-Anarchy Rules in War
saw-Russian Government Called on
to Explain.

London, Jan. 30.-The correspond
ent at Warsaw of the Daily Mail tele-
graphs as follows:
A group of hussars ran down Brit
ish Vice Consul Muoukain Saturday
night in Mashalkovsky street. Two
swords, inaicting severe cuts across
his face and lower lip. Dripping with
blood Muoukain was conveyed to the
hospital, where he is now doing well.
British Consul General Murray had a
narrow escape from being similarly
run down in Wierzbova street. 1t ap-
pears that the incidents were due to
a company of hussars getting drunk
and running amuck.
The same correspondent describes
Warsaw as being in a state of COM
plete anarchy. "Many have been killed
or wounded in charges by troops and
the recklessness of swashbuckling
hussars," he says.
The only conveyances moving in
Warsaw today have been military sup
ply carts, ambulance wagons and tum-
Drills for the dead. The attempted ris-
ing of workmen has failed and the
great demonstration timed for today
has been postponed. After some fight
ing the wrecked and distraught city
pauses to see what night will bring.
The Daily Nails st. Petersburg cor
respondent reports that Sir Charles
Hardinge, the British ambassador, has
asked the Russian government to make
inquiry into the outrages on the Brit
ish consul general and vice consul at
Warsaw.
The strike disorders are becoming
more serious. The ordinary life OF
the city is quite suspended. On Satur
day the strikers stopped the streetcaI
service, but remained otherwise or
derby. Today, however, they began
wholesale pillage. The majority of the
| shops in Marshalkovski street and the
state vodka shops were looted. All the
factories, shops and schools and the
, aters are closed and the street lamps
are extinguished. There have beer
+ several collisions between the police
I and the strikers, and many arrests
have been made. Peaceabiding citi
! zens are terror stricken.

PAST WEEK OF The WAR.
Russians Getting Active-Weather Is
Bad.


Bad.
During the past week the Russians
have made the first important move
ment since fall. There was a flying
cavalry raid under Mistchenko not
long ago, but it was not particularly
significant either in its purpose or
results. The present movement APP
pears to be somewhat different. The
entire Russian right wing seems to
have been active, and there are pre-
dictions that it may develop into a
general engagement all along the line.
Just what General Kuropatkin hopes
to attain is Lot clear. The weather is
decidedly unfavOrable for opening a
campaign, and it is said that the hard.
ships already encountered are the
worst since the war began. Some OF
the European papers say that the Rus
slams have taken the aggressive on
orders from st. Petersburg, the object
/ being to draw attention from the pres
ent internal upheavals and possibly to
4 awaken a little enthusiasm by bril-
liant military stroke at the front.
Russian correspondents in the field
predict that a battle will be fought
that will overshadow those on the
Shake river and at Liaoyang, but, un
der existing circumstances, it would
be unwise to put too much faith OF
these predictions. 1t is evident, how
ever, that the engagement which be
lerov, ic q
and while it may not affect any nota
BILE change in the positions of the TIVE
armies that have been in winter quar-
tiers, it is likely to result in sever
losses for both sides.

MARYLAND is A SPEEDY BOAT
New Armored Cruiser Makes 22.3o6
Knots Per Hour.

With the wintry northwest wind
striking her abeam, the armored cruis-
er Maryland, which was built by the
Newport News Shipbuilding & Dry
dock company, made on her official
trip an average speed of 22.906 knots
an hour, thereby exceeding her con-
tract requirement of % knots. The
Maryland is the fourth and last of a
type of fast cruisers to have a trial
off Cape Ann. OF the three which
have preceded, the Pennsylvania, the
speediest, averaged 22.43 knots an
hour.
The Colorado, which made 22.4 knots
and the Pennsylvania were built by
the Cramp Shipbuilding company OF
Philadelphia. The West Virginia, a
sister ship, was built by the Newport
News company, and it averaged 22.14

OMAHA PROPERTY BURNS.
Great Business Blocks Burned to the
Ground.

Ground.
Omaha Neb., Jan. 30-A fire which
has destroyed property estimated at
approximately $7Ov, 1000 started at 10
O'Clock Saturday night from what is
believed to have been an overheated
stove in the commission house of G.
H. Mullen & Co., located at Eleventh
and Howard streets. The flames spead
so rapidly that Chief Salter of the fire
department at once turned in a gem
eral alarm, which brought the entire
department of the city to the scene,
not, however, until the flames had got
ten quite beyond control. Five COM
mission houses were located in the
building where the flames were start
ed, and all of these were enveloped in
very short time.
Across the alley to the north a five
story building occupied by a large
manufacturing and jobbing shoe con-
Germ caught in the upper stories and
the fire soon spread to the lower
floors and the entire stock was de-
stroyed
The block in which the fire occur
red was in the wholesale district, and
contiguous to it were large number
of stores.
AS soon as the firemen discovered
the building could not be saved, they
turned their attention to adjoining
buildings. Despite their efforts, how
ever, the flames continued to spread.
At 1880 the flames had totally de-
stroyed a half block of five story build
ings containing valuable stocks of
wholesale and retail commission firms,
and at that hour were burning with in
creased fury. Despite the efforts Of
the entire fire department, with half a
hundred streams playing on the flames
they continued to spread.
Next to Snyder's commission house
on the north were four other commits
sion houses and the fire had enveloped
those places before streams could be
started on them.

Old Vancouver Fort Site Was Never
Recond For.

Old Vancouver Fort Site Was Never
Recond For.
Washington, d. c., Jan. 31.-The
house committee on private land claims
has favorably reported Representative
Jones' bill directing the treasurer of
the United States to pay to the treas
urer Right Rev. Bishop Of Nesqually,
of Washington, as trustee Of the mis-
sion of st. James, the sum of $45, 900
upon the filing in the proper depart
ment of q release to the United States,
to be approved by the attorney general,
full claim to the land embraced in the
cession to the mission of st. James,
under the act of congress approved in
1848, and full claim for damages for
destruction of property on the said land
by the United States troops or volun-
teers, or Indians, at any time anterior
to the date of the filing of the release.
The United States supreme court has
upheld a decree adverse to the claims
of the Catholics for payment of $780,
900 for this tract of land. The COM
mittee, however, quotes tho precedent
of the Missionary society of the Meth
odist church, which was reimbursed in
the sum of 500. 900 for the land in Ore
gon taken by the United States for
military purposes. This land in near
ly every respect, as regards ownership,
corresponded with the land at Vancou'
yer. Figuring at the rate paid the
Methodists, the committee thinks the
Catholics should be paid $40, 900.

London - The Daily Telegraph
Toxic correspondent says the Russian
casualties in the engagements from
January 1 to January 30 are now esti-
mated at between SO, 900 and 1900,
and those of the Japanese at 1000.
The japanese advance against the
Russian left turns out to have been
merely a demonstration. The Japan
ese fell back as soon as the Russians
brought up reinforcements. The only
fighting of any consequence occurred
at Chonhai pass at 3 O'Clock the morn
ing of January 30. Two japanese
batallions tried to capture the village
of Tingai. A bayonet engagement en-
sued and the Japanese were driven off
leaving 80 dead and eight wounded.
The Russians lost 10 killed and 36
wounded.

Russians Lost 10000 Men and Japan
anese 1000 Daring January.
Muk den. Feb. There is apparent
connection between the starting of the
battle of January 26 and the domestic
excitment at st. Petersburg, ror orders
just issued to abandon the planned ad-
vance against the Japanese positions.
The effect OF the trouble in Russia is
as yet imperceptible here. The facts
are not generally known. Officers in
possession of information of occur
rences at home say that the disaffected
are probably using the present war as
pretext for their periodical demon
strations which, when known, are re-
garded no more serious than formerly.
The commander in chiefs orders to
abandon the advance are reported to
state two reasons for stopping the adj
vance-first, the losses sustained; Sec
ond, the failure of quick attack, up
on which the advance depended. The
precise meaning of the above is not ap-
parent.
Notwithstanding the order to cease,
tenacious conflict continues in the
vicinity of Sanchiapu, fortified out
post on the japanese left, where it is
reported the Russians have taken the
outer works.
Berlin. Feb. 1.-The Russian often
sive movement, according to the re-
ports received by the general staff al

continues to develope, and the result
can not be forecasted. These reports

formation without congratulations OF
descriptions, affirm that the Russians
have not attacked the Japanese left
wing in force, but that only skirmishel
have taken place ON that wing and thu

Yachting Trophy, Her
OzCner and Designer.

The victory of the three masted
schooner Atlantic in the recent interna-
tional race for the kaiser's cup has
given still greater glory and prestige to
American yachtsmen. yacht builders
and yacht designers. The Atlantic's
record breaking run, with Captain
Charley Barr AT the wheel, was even
more notable than the winning of the
German rulers 5000 trophy. In ad-
dation TO establishing a new record
BAL miles-for a days run, she broke
the worlds record for five days sail
ing.
Wilson Marshall. the owner of the
victorious yacht, is young in years,
but a veteran of the sport. He has
been a member of the New York Yacht
club since 1880 and in this time has
owned many vessels. the one proceed
ing his present craft also bearing the
name Atlantic. Born in New York not
more than thirty-four or thirty-fiye
years ago, he has from youth been fas-

bilities of yachting. As he grew older

was induced through the gradual de-
veIopment Of his love of the sport to

The elder Marshalls will be recalled
by New York's oldest citizens, as they
were identified with its stages and
stage routes, giving TO the people the
transportation from point to point in
Gotham now so much improved by the
trolley and subway lines.
The Atlantic was completed in the
last days of 1903 and in the early win
