Tie Pass is now in the hands of the
Japanese. and the broken Russian
army continues its retreat to the
north. The ultimate fate of the rem
nant of Kuropatkins force is still
problematical Another successful
flanking movement on the part of the
Japanese would probably seal its fate,
but it may be that the Japanese are
not in condition to accomplish such a
feat after their exhausting efforts of
the past two weeks.
General Kuropatkin evidently left
Tie Pass Thursday, and reports to St.
Petersburg that his army is falling
back in good condition. The next
town of importance in the line OF the
Russian retreat is Kaiyun. some 20
miles from Tie Pass, but its strategic
value is not known.

TURNS BACK ON ENEMIES
TO FACE HIS EMPEROR

st. Petersburg, March 17.-1:05 p.
ml-With the Japanese charging on
the heels and flanKs of the remnants
of the broken, defeated Russian army,
General Kuropatkin, the old idol or
the private soldier, has been dis
missed and disgraced, and General
Lincyitch, commander of the first
army, is appointed to succeed him in
command of all the Russian land and
sea forces operating against Japan.
The word disgrace is written in large
letters in the laconlc imperial order
gazetted which contains not single
WORD of praise, and also disposes of
the rumor that Kuropatkin had asked
to be relieved. The Russian military
annals contain no more bitter imperi-
al rebukes. While it was known that
the war council had already decided
to supplant Kuropatkin after the Muk-
den disaster, the decision to confer
the task of saving the remainder Of
the army Linevitch in the very
midst of its flight. came as surprise.
II is Up to General LineVitch.
1t transpires that Emperor Nicholas
upon the advice of General Dragon
iroff and War Minister Sakharoff de-
termined that the measure was neces-
sary when it became apparent yester-
day morning that huropatkin, while
concentrating for stand at Tie Pass,
seemed unaware that the Japanese
had worked around westward again
and practically allowed himself to be
surprised. Old reports brought by
General Grippenburg regarding Kuro-
patkin's falling mentality also had in
fluence. Under the circumstances,
therefore. it was considered impera-
tive in view of the exceeding perilous
position of the army to turn over its
command to Linevitch, who alone had
been able to bring off his army in or
der after the battle of Mukden. His
record during the Chinese war had
also demonstrated his capacity as
commander. Kuropatkin will return
To st. Petersburg forthwith.

Alleged Murderer.

Deputy Sheriff J K Winter has
been having strenuous time late
ly. But that doesn't sidetrack
Joe-not any; he rather seems to
thrive on that sort of thing.

He left there about noon on Sat-
urday, August 26, going to Pine in
search of a couple of men who had
broken quarantine. The following
Monday evening he called up Post
master Arthur Golden of Rocky
Bar, by phone, inqulring as to
general conditions since he left,
and was informed that four new
cases of smallpox had appeared,
making total of 10.
About II a. m. Tuesday (Aug-
ust 29) Deputy Winter received a
telephone message from Sheriff
Ross, telling him to be on the look
out for Billy West. who was said
to be wanted by the authorities OF
Idaho county on the charge OF
murder. Winter was not &C.
quainted with the man who was
wanted, but little things like that
never bother Joe any. ne began
to "snoop around" and before old
Sol got good start on the after
noon toboggan he had his man in
custody - found him in Tate'f
camp.
Shortly before noon the Deputy
Sheriff and his prisoner started fol
