iHE END NOT YET IN SIGHT
NO PROPOSALS OF PEACE ARE
LIKELY.
Russia Insists Japan Must Recognize
Her Right to Free Transit OF
Ships Through Waters Of Far
East.

The people of st. Petersburg have
received with composure the news,
known to the rest of the world day
earlier, of the fate Of Port Arthur.
The event had been anticipated and
under official direction the minds OF
the populace were prepared to re-
ceive with resignation the announce
ment of the fact by the publication OF
dispatches forwarded last week by
General Stoessel describing the
straits to which the garrison had been
reduced.
The expectation in some quarters
that the surrender of the fortress
would be followed at the capital by
anti-war demonstrations has not been
realized. So far as there has been
any expression of feeling it has been
for carrying on the war with all the
vigor possible.
At Toxic the surrender Of Port Ar
thur was celebrated by lantern pro-
cession and a general illumination.
The Japanese diet will formally ex-
press the thanks of the nation to Gen.
eral Nogi for his conduct Of the siege.
Among the Russian officials there Is
a feeling that any proposals of peace
that may be made must be with the
fact in view that in order that peace
must be lasting Japan must recognize
Russia's right to free transit OF its
ships through waters of the far east.
High Japanese officials declare that
there is no probability of advances
coming from their government looking
toward peace negotiations.

= Did Not Suppress Gambling.
George H. Williams. ex-chief jus.
tice Of Oregon territory; ex.United
States senator from the state of Ore
gon; attorney general in President
Grants cabinet. and the first choice
Of the president for the chief Justice
ship of the United States; mayor Of
Portland, and a. man with the snow
Of eighty-three winters upon his
head, was indicted by the county
grand jury of Multnomah county at
Portland. Wednesday, on the charge
Of malfeasance in Office.
The indictment states that on July
10, 1904, Judge Williams was mayor
of Portland, and while acting in that
capacity refused to enforce the stat.
utes regulating gambling. This law
was passed at the last session Of the
legislature and was signed by the gov
ernor on January %, 1903. It gives the
mayor power to close disorderly
houses within four miles of the city,
and it Is alleged that he failed to avail
himself of that power.
An indictment against Chief of Po-
lice Hunt Is almost identical with that
returned against Mayor Williams.

Noted Musician Dead.

Theodore Thomas, the noted Or
chestra leader, died Of pneumonia at
his residence in Chicago, Wednesday.
He was 70 years Of age. Death came
to the world-famous director almost
at the hour of achieving his ambition
of years-the establishment Of the
Chicago orchestra in magnificent
permanent home. Mr.. Thomas lived
to lead his orchestra in but four con-
certs in the great new hall, built by
popular subscription. His last appear
ance was at the concert on Saturday,
the day before Christmas.

PORT CLOSED BY JAPANESE
FOREIGN VESSELS ARE NOT Al.
LOWED At PORT ARTHUR.
British Vessel With Hospital Stores
and Surgeons is Turned Back, az
Japanese Expect to Care for Rus
sian Wounded Themselves.

The British cruiser Andromeda
which sailed from Weihatwei or
Wednesday for Port Arthur with hos
pital stores and surgeons to assist the
sick and wounded, returned Thursday
not having been allowed to make 9
landing at Port Arthur. The cruiser
proceeded to q small bay ten miles
north of Port Arthur, where she met
with some Japanese. The latter re
fused all assistance or stores Of any
kind and declined to allow the ships
officers to approach closer, the reason
given being the presence Of INDICATED
mines.
A Chefoo dispatch says:
Sympathy for the sick and wounded
Russians at Port, Arthur is wide
spread, but an idea to care for them
at Chefoo, Tie Tsin, Shanghai, Weihai
wei and Tsingtau has led to an inquiry
which developed the fact that the com
bined facilities of the places named are
equal to harboring only very small
percentage of them.
Some time ago Russian residents OF
Chefoo collected a fund in anticipation
Of this emergency, but at a meeting
today of the British and Japanese con.
suls and the local health Nonicer the
fact was developed that the present
conditions Of Chefoo are equal to car.
ing for only sixty. The conditions at
Shanghai and Tien Tsin are proper.
tionately inadequate.
The general opinion here is that the
great mass Of the sick and wounded
will be compelled to remain at Port
Arthur until they are sufficiently con.
valescent to return to Russia.
The refusal of the Japanese to &C.
cept the aid rendered by the British
cruiser Andromeda was an error born
Of their desire to show to the world
that Japanese humanitarianism was
lully equal to the occasion.
The statement in the censored dis.
patches from correspondents with
General Nogis army that the Japanese
lost only $4,000 men in taking the fort
tess Is declared to be absurd by Rus
sian naval officers here Their lowest
estimate, they say, Is based both on
personal observation and on stories
told by prisoners that the japanese
lost 10000,

fore They Surrendered.
Some interesting statistics concern
ing the defense of Port Arthur were
brought to Chefoo by the fiotilla OF
Russian torpedo boat destroyers which
carried numerous chests containing
complete records of General Stoessels
army.
Originally the army numbered 35,-
900. Eleven thousand have been
killed, 10000 are wounded or sick,
while 5000 remained In the forts, Of
whom, however, 1000 were unable to
fight.
It is learned that when General
Stoessel wrote to General Nogi re-
garding the surrender of the fortress
he said:
Il have 5000 men in the forts and
5000 of these are able to fight. If you
do not accept my proposal, these men
will die fighting, but it will cost you
three times their number to kill them"
The Russians estimate that the
taking of the fortress has cost Japan
500, 100000.

teller, was assaulted by a negro in

badly injured. A detail of police was
at once sent to the scene and four Of

STORM CAUSES SEVEN DEATHS.
Terrific Blizzard Visits New York,
Causing Much Suffering.

IcTTiHC 6iZZdTO VISITS NeW VOTK,
Causing Much Suffering.
Not in several years has New York
been visited by a storm of such pro-
portions as that which commenced
Tuesday and continued until early
Thursday. Nine inches of snow fell,
paralyzing traffic, and the marked
drop in the temperature brought un-
told suffering to the city's poor. The
blizzard caused seven deaths in New
York and vicinity, while many per-
sons, overcome by the cold, dropped
to the street, some of them receiving
fractured bones. Five of the seven
men who met death from results of the
storm died from exposure, another
slipped on the icy platform of an ele-
waited station, fell in front of an ap-
preaching train and was ground to
pieces. The seventh, L. w. Eller,
conductor on the Pennsylvania rail-
road, blinded by the driven snow,
stepped in front Of the Congressional
limited train at South Amboy, N. j.,
and was instantly killed.

SHORTAGE OF PROVISIONS.
Stores at Port Arthur Diminished by
Long Siege.

The following report twas received
in Toxic from General Nogi at 3
o'clock Wednesday afternoon:
"Order Is maintained at Port Ar
thur by the officers. The people are
quiet.
"The total number of inhabitants is
about $4,000, Of whom $4,000 are SOL
diers or sailors. The total number
of sick or wounded is 10000.
Common provisions and bread are
plentiful, but there is a scarcity of
meat and vegetables.
There are no medical supplies at
Port Arthur. The Japanese are siren
uously succoring the people.
"The capitulation committees are
pushing their respective works."

that Patrick Dunn, an aged storekeep'

murdered in his place of business,
where he had apparently lain for two
days. His head was crushed to
pulp. From the appearance Of the

the crime, which was doubtless In.
duced for purposes Of robbery. 1t
was known that Dunn had accumulat-

TO REGULATE TRUSTS.
Bill Proposing a National Board to
Control Corporations.

A national board to exercise super
vision and control over corporations
is provided for in bill introduced in
the senate by Senator Hepburn. 1t is
proposed that congress create a new
department Of the government to ex-
list in connection with the department
Of commerce and labor, to be known
as the national board of corpora
tions." This board shall consist of
five persons, four to be nominated by
the president, for terms of four years
each at salaries Of $4,000 annually,
and the fifth member shall be the Sec
rotary of the department of commerce
and labor.
Authority far greater than that en-
joyed by the department now entrust-
ed with the regulation of so-called
trusts and monopolies will be given to
the national board If Senator Hey
burns bill becomes a law.

BOAT BLEW UP.
Ten Men Rescued Out Of Crew Of
Twenty-eight.

Ten Men Rescued Out of a Crew Of
Twenty-eight.
The boilers of the big tow boat De-
fender blew up in the Ohio river near
Huntington, w. Va, and of a crew Of
twenty-eight only ten or twelve have
been rescued alive, and they are in
jured.
In few minutes the big tow boat
was a mass of flames, the fire even
spreading to the twenty barges in tow.
The boat was in tow of Captain
James R. Woodruff of Pittsburg, who
was hurled into the river by the ex-
plosion, but was later picked up, not
seriously injured.
The only dead body yet recovered
and identified is that of Thomas Duff
fy of Pittsburg, fireman from Corio-
polio, Pa, name unknown.
Robert Holland of Pittsburg and Jo-
seph Moore of Oakland, Pa, were
picked up by the rescuing parties and
are now in the city hospital. They
are horribly injured and can give no
details of the accident.
An engineers young son is said to
have been killed and one woman,
who was aboard, name unknown, is
horribly injured. The steam tug
burned for more than an hour and
the smouldering hulk settled down
just above the city wharfboat. The
Defender was owned by the Pittsburg
Towboat company.
