ENJOYING ROYAL SPORT.
Secretary Loeb Tells of the Presidents
 Hunt. ..* 54


 Glenwood Springs, Col, April 20.-- That President Roosevelt is enjoying royal sport in his hunt for Rocky Mountain grizzlies is attested by Sec- retary Loeb, who returned from the camp late to-day, after having spent last night with the presidents party.
 While the only game pulled down thus far is a bear shot by the president, and lynx, or bob cat, shot by Dr. AL exander Lambert, of New York, there has been plenty of recreation. Every day the dogs have followed trails that looked promising, showing that there are more bears to be found in the re- zion now being hunted, Camp will not be moved until Saturday. Then the party will settle on West Divide Creek, within twenty miles of the present camp and four miles nearer Newcastle.
 The point towards which the party is working is Redstone, where camp is scheduled to be broken on May IA. The private car Rockett will pick up the president at Redstone,' and he will spend night at Glenwood springs. The start home will be made on May 15, it is planned, with stops of one day each at Denver and at Chicago.

MAY REOPEN sULLY CASE.
Several Important and Sensational
 Points to be Settled.

Points to be Settled.
 New York, April 29.--MacGrane Coxe, referee in bankruptcy in the Daniel J. Sully case to-day sent to Judge Holt of the United States district court an opinion which, if approved by the court, will reopen the sully case entirely, and bring up for adjudication several inn- portant and almost sensational points.
 The opinion Is given upon appliea- tion of two sets of petitions, one from Edwin Hawley and Frank H. Ray, who have been sued by Sully's trustee in bankruptcy for certain sums alleged to have been lost through participation with Sully in alleged cotton pools and the others from creditors VITO are not members of the cotton exchange.
 Three questions were brought up: First, whether s1,000,0o paid on Satur- day, March IS, 1904, was a preference and so illegal; second, whether the Fri days or Saturdays prices should de- tsrnine the amount the Sully estate owes, and third, whether transactions on the cotton exchange are gambling transactions.
 The opinion of the referee is that the case should be re'opened. If Judge Holt decides in favor, this will reopen the whole question, and if the claims are decided it will make an immense difference in the amounts due.
 If it is proved that cotton exchange transactions are gambling transactions. Suly is solvent and will not owe 8 cent.

in Jewish Paper-Then Told
 Relative.
 Chicago, April 20.-Samuel Eisenberg, who says he saw Caesar" Young kill himself while in a cab with Nan Pat terson in New York, was seen tonight, at 567 West Fourteenth street, where he is living with relative, B. Rosen. Eisenberg is a Russian Jew thirty-five years of age and unable to speak of write English. It was necessary to take to the house a Russian interpreter to procure his story.
 Eisenberg, who was a tailor, says that on the day of the shooting of Young he was walking along West Broadway, on his way to State street, when he passed a cab in which a man and woman were Quarreling. The Wo- man was crying and both of them were greatly excited. Their conduct inter- ested Eisenberg and he followed them to see the outcome. At one time, he said, the two engaged i'll struggle, but 1t was of short duration. Finally the woman, who was crying all the time, laid her head on the mans shoulder. The man then reached around to rear pocket and drew a revolver with which he shot himself. Eisenberg de- clares that he became excited by the act and hurried away, as several peo- pie were hastening to the cab, and there was no apparent need of assist ance from him. Being unable to read English, he saw nothing of. the case in the papers, and had nearly forgot ten all about it, until the other day when glancing through a Jewish paper he saw an account of the Patterson trial and concluded that the couple he saw in the cab must have been Young and Nan Patterson.
 Eisenberg has been in Chicago only two weeks, coming direct from New York.
 He did not know tonight whether he would return to New York to testify in the case as he had received no sum mons, and had not talked with any body concerning the case. He could not understand, he said, how 1t could be known in New York that he had knowledge of the case, as he had not talked with the police concerning it.,
 After hearing Eisenberg's statement that he did not know how, the New York authorities heard of his Knowledge of the case, Rosen said:
 q wrote to the police in New York. Sam told me about what he saw, and I knew of the Patterson case, and I thought it might be the same thing, so II wrote to New York and told them that I knew of a man who had seen the man kill himself in a cab" ,'ti

In order to reach the straits of For mosa from Kamranh bay the Russian second Pacific squadron would have had to traverse about 800 miles of wa ters which are much frequented, and it is scarcely within the range of possi- bility that fifty or more vessels steam ing together for that distance should not have been reported by ships touch ing at such portions as Turan, Kiung- chau and Hong Kong.

 ent Punderford Speaks on Trolley
 system--A Most Enjoyable Affair.
 "A large number of members and in vited guests of the New Haven Busi- ness Mems association assembled in their new quarters in the Leffingweii building last evening to observe the informal opening of their headuuarters. The affair was most enjoyable one, and those present spent very socia- ble evening. The evening was occupied with addresses by various members of the association concerning the welfare and progress of the organization.
 President Samuel E. Dibble opened the meeting with few remarks He spoke of the necessity of organization in general for the advancement of large associations. He touched on the work of the directors in connection with the competition of itinerant vendors, which
 he characterized as an unfair competi- tion. Had it not been for some of the directors, he declared, the law against inherent vendors would not have been strictly enforced. The organization has played great part in the association's progress.
 Edward I. Atwater, chairman of the committee on new quarters, congratu- lated the organization on the opening of a permanent home. No doubt you are aware, 2 he said, of the fact that the association has a higher standing in the community than ever before. Its membership is larger and it's finances are in splendid shape.''
 Present Conditions of the Associa- tion'' was the subject of Secretary and Treasurer Linsley. His address was largely a statistical account of the or ganization during the past few months. The present membership Is S09. a gain of 34 since last December. As it's share fthe profits of the exposition at the armory last winter the association net ted about $1,500. MT, Linsley also re- ferred to the splendid work of the col- Booth.
 Mayor Stuylley was present but at his own request was excused from speaking.
 To George B. Johnson was assigned the topic "Reminiscences He showed that the efficiency of the collecting de- partment was of a high order by the fact that about one-third of the claims referred to it have been collected. He also spoke of the adoption of a bylaw by which the matter of advertisements and donations is dealt with. The as sociation's influence has also been strong in the matter of obtaining the passage of the law reducing the limit of attachment on wages, which has been changed from $50 to $E5. ffeoutiu,,ed m Eyfth pa pa H ' 7El

WAS KUR0PATklN
KILLED OR TAKEN?

st. Petersburg, June 2S-Something
of a panic was created here last
night by the circulation of report
that General Kuropatkin, command
ing the second Siberian army, had
been either killed or captured. l.
was also reported that General Nogi,
commanding the Japanese left had
succeeded in isolating General Kuro'
patkin's command and that as result
a fight followed in which the former
minister of war was killed.
At the war office 1t was stated that
no such report had been received
there and that the rumor was un'
doubtedly fabrication. Despite this
denial there are many persons who
believe that the Japanese have won
another great victory In Manchuria
and that the annihilation of General
Linevitchs command is certain.
