News at st. PETERSBURG.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 28.-7:15 p. m.
The fragmentary official and press
reports of the fresh reverse sustained
by General Kuropatkin are inadequate
to draw a conclusion OF the magni-
tude of General Kuroki's successes
against the Russian left, but the pub
lie, as usual, is ready to believe the
worst and the city is already full of
reports that big disaster has again
overtaken the Russian arms, accord
fng to which Mukden has been out
flanked and is untenable and Kuro-
patkin is withdrawing from his strong
position on the Shakhe river. That
such reports are exaggerated is be-
yond question, but although reticent
and seeking to minimize the opera
tions of the last few days the Off
cials of the war Office are plainly dis
roki is able to drive in and turn the
Russian extreme left, his advance col
umns actually crossing the Shakhe
river.
1t is admitted that fighting was des-
perate on Sunady and Monday, while
the front was being involved, Field
Marshal Oyama evidently being util-
lied to keep the center and right en-
gagged and prevent Kuropatkin from
sending reinforcementsI to head off
Kuroki. Should Kurod cross the Hun
river, the high road to Tie Pass, 40
miles north of Mukden would be open
and Kuropatkin's retreat threatened.
Further news is awaited with great
anxiety.
Anything like decisive Japanese
victory now would probably end the
war.
General Kuropatkin in dispatch to
Emperor Nicholas dated to-day says:
''Ten attacks made by two Japanese
battalions and some cavalry west OF
the village of Tanshntong have been
repulsed. The Japanese renewed the
attack in the morning Of Feb. 27 and
were again repulsed. They left a
hundred corpses in front Of our posi-
tions. The Russian loss was six men" !"

HEIREss MURDERED BY LOVER.
Chicago Man Kills Woman and Then
Blows Out His Brains.

Chicago, Feb. 28.-Miss Mary Cath
crime Mulvell, an heiress, was muir
dered Monday by Daniel Herman, a
policeman, whose love she had refused.
The crime was committed in the
most fashionable part of Michigan
boulevard, at a time when the avenue
was filed with pedestrians and car
riages. Herman, after killing the wo-
man, made his escape, and committed
suicide in a lodging house at 3165
Archer avenue, by shooting himself
through the brain with the same re-
volver with which he had killed Miss
Mulvell.
Herman, who was "a plain clothes
man." became infatuated with the girl
through hearing her play at st. James
Catholic church, where she acted as
organist, and had for a long time an
noyed her with his attentions, con
stantly urging her to marry him. Miss
Mulvell had refused him repeatedly.
and told some of her friends a short
time ago that he had threatened to kill
her unless she married him. At that
time she expressed herself as being
afraid to walk the streets, for fear
that she might meet Herman, who fol
lowed her wherever she went

Onward March of Mlkado's Army.
Decisive Battle May End War.
Advices from both Russian and Jap
anese sources indicate that sharp fight
ing has been in progress along the
Shakhe river for a week, but the rath-
er meager dispatches which havs been
permitted to come through do not make
it clear that whole of the extended
lines of Kuropatkin and Oyama are yet
engaged.
The initiative will be taken by the
Japanese. Several heavy attacks
were delivered against the Russian
left, which apparently has been forced
back from it's advanced positions with
considerable loss, and the Japanese
have occupied some villages hereto
fore within the Russian lines. AS usual
the reports from Russian and Japa-
nese sources conflict Kuropatkin
claiming to have repulsed the Japa-
nese at several points, while Oyama
reports general success.

TEN NEGROES KILLED
IN CHURCH DISASTER
Floor of Building Collapsed By
Breaking of Beams.
UPWARDS OF FIFTY ARE INJURED
Those Who Were Not Injured Become
Panic Stricken and Terrible Scene
Ensued-Negroes Were Attending
Funeral Service.

Funeral Service.
| New York, Feb. 28.-A searching in
vestigation was begun today by the
county and borough authorities of
Brooklyn to ascertain the cause of the
collapse of the floor of the Fleet Street
African Methodist Episcopal church of
Zion, last night when ten persons were
killed and upwards of SO injured.
1t was ascertained today that the
cause of the collapse was the breaking
of a heavy beam supporting the floor
and running lengthwise of the church
| near the south wall. Under the weight
of the great number of people gath
cred above it snapped square in two
midway between the front and rear
of the church.
Coroner Flaherty, of Brooklyn, to-
day began his investigation and soon
afterward declared that the disaster
was due to gross negligence on the
part of some one, and asserted that it
is his intention to fix the blame for
it upon those guilty.
Three hundred persons were crowd
ed into the pews and aisles of the
church last evening to attend the fuA
neral of Sidney Painter, when a sec
ton of the floor, about 40 feet square,
fell into the basement 10 feet below,
which was used as a Sunday school
room. Into that hole the throng Of
people fell until they filled it to the lev
el of the floor, 10 feet above. Those
underneath were crushed to death by
the weight of those above.
Eight of those killed were negro wo-
men and a similar large proportion
of the injured were women. Those
who were not either killed or badly in
jured became panic-stricken and ter
rible scene ensued when their frantic
efforts to es cape from the building in
the absolute darkness and clouds of
dust from splintered flooring, added
to the horror of the disaster.
Two hundred of the funeral party
and members of the negro order of
Elks, who we're assembled in the base
ment below the main floor of the
church, were not under that portion
of the floor which fell, and so escaped
injury.
A revised list of the dead follows:
Bertha Green, Theresa Ellis, Samuel
Chisholm, Anna Dean, Benjamin Clark,
Anna Sulia, Anna Louise Smith, Fred
erick H. Voorhees,, Harriet Nelson and
Ruby Thorpe.
OF the injured there are ten in the
hospitals suffering from fractured
limbs, broken bones and contusions,
but none of them is believed to be fa-
| tally injured.

When child I had very severe at.
tack of Diphtheria, which came near prov.
ing fatal. Upon nrecovery the glands of the
neck were very much enlarged, and after
the free use of iodine, the right one was
reduced to its normal size, but the left
one continued to grow-very slowly at
first, until it was about the size of goose
egg, which began to press on the wind
pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be-
came very painful. An incision was made
and large quantity of pus discharged.
The gland was removed, or as much as
could with safety be taken out. For ten
years wore little piece of cloth about an
inch long in my neck to keep the place
open. During this time I had to have it
cut open by the doctor every time 1 took
cold or the opening clogged. In the Spring
or early Summer of 1884 was persuaded
by my wife to use S. S. S., which I did,
strictly in accordance with directions. /

Baltimore, Feb 28.-Dr. William
Osler of Johns Hopkins university,
who recently made some declarations
concerning men older than 40 or GO
have given out this signed statement
with the view of correcting errors
which have arose from Interpretations:
81 have been SO misquoted in the pa

following statement:
First, that l did not say that men
at sixty should be chloroformed. That
was the point in the novel which
referred, and on which the plot hinged
Secondly, nothing m the criticisms
has shaken my conviction that the
telling work of the world has been
done and is being done by men under
40 years Of age. The exceptions which
have been given only illustrate the
rule.
Thirdly, 1t would be for the general
good if men at so were relieved from
active work. We should miss the en-
ergies of some young old men, but
on the whole, it would be Of the great

NIcARAGUAN VOLCANO ACTIVE.
Shower of Ashes Fall Upon Ship sc
Miles from Coast


San Francisco, Feb. 28.-For sever
al hours on the night of Jan. 29, a
shower Of black ashes fell ON the deck
of the Pacific mail steamer San Jose,
off the coast of Nicaragua At mid
night the officer on watch made out
the flaming torch of the volcano of Mo-
ttomobo, 80 miles inland from Corin-
to and so miles in direct course from
the San Jose and he understood that
the fall of ashes came through from
the erupting mountain. For several
hours the volcano and it's flame were
in sight. On the return trip, which
the San Jose called at Corinto the
facts about the eruption were learned
1t was also learned that the destruc.
tion caused by the volcanoes outburst
at first believed by the Nicaraguans
to have been extensive, had been re-
markably slight. Momotombo was
then Only smoking, as of old.

New York, Feb. 8.-Argument on

tiorari obtained for Nan Patterson,
who is charged with The killing of
of Caesar Young, was postponed to-
day until tomorrow by Justice Gaynor
in Brooklyn at the request of the dis
trict attorney to allow the assistant
district attorney to be present.
Miss Patterson was present in court
accompanied by her father. She ap-
peared in high spirits. There was
an immense crowd in and about the
courthouse, when the prisoner arrived,
and the scene SO displeased Justice
Gaynor that he only granted the re-
quest for postponement under the un-
derstanyding that it would be unnec-
essary to again bring Miss Patterson
to court.
