In the House.

Before proceeding with the postof-
flee appropriation bill, which has the
right of way the house today took
up several matters of routine charac-
ter, among them being the appoint
ment of Edwin P. Hammond, of In
diana, as member Of the board of
managers for the national soldiers
home at Marion, Ind.
The house adopted the conference
report on the Notifications bill which
was only a partial agreement, as the
senate amendment requiring detailed
estimates was still in dispute. A
further conference was ordered. The
bill carries $6,747,S93.
Consideration Of the postoffice ap-
preparation bill was then resumed.

FIFTEEN STATES REPRESENTED.
Wholesale Grooer's Association Holds

New York, Feb Fifteen states
have been represented at the annual
meeting here of the presidents of the
various state Wholesale GrocerY asr
Sociation, comprising the National
Grocers' association.
The meeting was considered by
those present as one Of the moat Inn

matters connected with the trade

salers' interests.
The supporters of the plan urged
that single national meeting of the
character would be more productive
than a large number of state meet
ings in that it will get representative
and influential grocers of the country
together and thus start a movement
that will be simultaneous.

Commission still In Session.

Paris, Feb. 1.-The North sea com,
mission continued it's sessions today.
Lieutenant Ellis, of the Russian bat
tleship Alexander III, gave circum'
stantial evidence Of seeing torpedo
boat among the British trawlers in
the North sea. He said he first saw
a torpedo boat miles off, steamina
swiftly toward the squadron ON a
course to intercept the flagship. AS
the torpedo boat advanced searchlights
made her plainly visible, and a heavy
cannonade was opened on her. The
torpedo boat, the witness continued,
was evidently damaged, drew off to
starboard and disappeared.

Noon, via Tien Tsin, Feb. 1.-Oe-
layed in AFTER three
months of inaction there is now a
prospect that the armies of General
Kuropatkin and Field Marshal Oyama
will soon join in what will likely prove
the greatest battle of the war For
some days past the Russians have been
quietly massing troops on General
Oku's left, evidently preparing for an
attempt at turing movement.
For three days past a heavy artil
gery fire today toward the center.
The japanese have not replied to the
cannonade, awaiting an attack by the
Russians who have been heavily re-
inforced. 1t is believed now that
they have numerous divisions along
the Shakhe river.
The Japanese force has also been
increased and everything now seems
ready for the greatest conflict yet re-
corded in the history of the present
war

ably the revolutionary outbreak in
Russia has determined General Kuro-
patkin to make a desperate effort to
gain victory before the outbreak in
Russia becomes known to the army
The utter failure of the recent cav
airy raid by the Russians on the rail-
road shows the futility of further at
tempts of the kind. With the ground
SO sOlidly frozen the troops on the
advance would have great difficulty
in entrenching to secure the slightest
cover. The advantage of the sun
would be entirely on the side of the
army on the defensive. With the
thermometer at zero and the ground
covered with snow, a battle when
fought would be over a great plain,
where the south sun can be of no ad-
vantage to either side.
