Washington. March 2l.-The follow

legation Monday.
Respecting the capture at Sinmintin
by the Japanese garrison Of a Russian
officer who repaired there in breach
of parole. a ST. Petersburg semi-oficial
telegraph agency published the excuse
to the effect that in returning home
from Shanghai 20 Russia he took The

were liberated upon the surrender of
Port Arthur. had each and all sworn
in writing. according TO the terms of
capitulation. 10 the effect that they
would not act contrary TO the interest
Of Japan. The japanese government
being convinced that the returning to
Russia OF such officers through the
war zone IS detrimental 10 the MILF
tary operations. decided that they
should not in any Ease be allowed to
take that route. and the decision was
expressly communicated to them at Tho

dispatches from Manchuria indicate
that the retreat of the Russian army
Is being conducted uneventufullv. The
last few days were unmarked bv any
lighting OF a serious nature. Both The
Russians and the japanese. at this

marching is more important than
fighting. The Russians. however. are
neglecting no precautions to impede
pursuit and hamper the construction II

The Russian rear guard is retreat

skirmishes. II has now reached a 20

course OF the retreat the Russians are
destroying bridges. the railway road
bed and highways. and carrying OF
stores and demolishing buildings and
everything moi portable. Reports of a
wide turning movement by the Jap
anese are no longer being received.
There Is increasing difficulty In se-

The Red Cross depot under the
auspices OF Grand Duchess Elizabeth,

Hired Girl Wins Old Mans Heart
And Purse.
Thousands of Dollars Spent in
Fruitless Search.

A man, a hired girl and fortune
claiming the attention of two men and
their families, are figuring in an at
tempt to locate man by the name of
Schapesteak who for Number ofyears
was supposed to have been Il resident
Of this city.
The quest for their father has driven
his two sons over most of two CONT
nents, and has caused them to expend
many thousands of dollars, and still
there is no definite information as to-
the old mans whereabouts. The two
men were in this city Friday and
Saturday and were active in their
search for any information that woulS
lead to their father.
1t appears from the story given b,
the two men that previous to the time
the old man left the fatherland he had
IN his employ a vinsome German girl
whose attractions he was unable to
withstand and one morning he was
missing and from that time to this he
has not been heard from.
1t is known that be came to New
York, and having arranged his affairs
in the old country SO that they did not,
require his attention, he had most of
his fortune in cash.
They discovered what they thought
was a clue in the name of Schapesseak.

who was supposed to have been in the.
