Ruby robbed LeWee of a two-base
hit in the seventh inning and capped
the climax iR1the fielding contest that
had been going on during the entire
Decatur game. The barker at a show
would say that the single performance
was worth the price of admission, if
the Islanders did lose the game in the
10 innings of play by a score of , to 9.
The work OF Ruby and Carlisle and
thornton and Swacina in the outfield
and both Of the infields has been the
feature Of the series. Near the close
of the last game Lewee hit one that
appeared from the grand stand to be
going over the fence. But il came
down just on the inside and would
have hit the wall had il not been for
Ruby's mitt that was there waiting for

OnIC0QOs
Chicago, March -Overturning
high in the air on the Lake street ele-
waited railroad passenger coach with
eighty persons aboard escaped being
dashed to the granite pavement below.
One woman was pinioned on the
tracks within few inches of the
deadly electric third rail and though
finally extricated alive is fatally in
jured. Forty other passengers were
injured but not seriously.
The upset was caused by the Sec
ond car of an accommodation train
missing switch. Miss Judith Strom
Of Austin, ILL.,, fell out of window
and rolled under the heavy trucks of
the car, which held her shoulders to
the tracks close beside the fully
charged third rail. The screams of
the unfortunate woman could be heard
for more than a block. One passenger
named j. P. Henry had particularly
narrow. escape from death. Henry
was standing on the front platform of
the second coach. When the car was
turned he was pitched out. His body
struck the elevated structure and was
rolling off into the street below when
he grasped a rail and clung suspend
ed above the street. until fireman
raised ladder and carried him down.

Cincinnati Bank loses $4,000 Of lt'
Reserve Fund.

Cincinnati, March S.-The German
National bank OF this city is S55,hGn
short in It's government reserve fin1,
according to a story published here.
While this fund still contains muci:
more money than the national banSiii.s
laws prescribe it shall possess as a
national bank that amount has ar-
parently been stolen from its special
vaults.
Oficials say that the robbery is one
of the boldest and most puzzling ever
known in this section. On Dec. 13 the
reserve fund was counted and found
to be intact. Four weeks ago the short
age was discovered and the most thor
ough investigation has been carried on
ever since without results.
The German National bank is one Of
the strongest banks in this section,
with q capital Of 35o0,O0o. surplus
Of $500, 900, undivided profits of $780,
1856 and total resources Of nearly
$7,OOO,O0O. Prssident Bohrer said the
loss was comparatively small and that
1t might be found later to be a matter
at bookkeeping.

FEAR RETREAT IS GUT OFF
POSITION OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY
GROWING INCREASINGLY
DESPERATE.

st. Petersburg, March S.-All hope
hat General Kuropatkin will be able
to turn defeat into victory is rapidly
vanishing. The position of the Rus
sian army has been growing increas
ingly desperate during the last twenty
four hours. The gravest danger is
from the Japanese left, which has
been pushed northward on the Sin
mintin road to a point eight miles
northwest of Mukden, where it has
Joined a ftanking column from the
west around the village of Tatchekiao
which is located at this point.
The battle ragged with terrible bitter
ness throughout Monday with all the
reserves hurried to the scene to block
the stroke at the Russian line of com
munications.
General Baron Kaulbars, who is de
Tending this wing, is only able to hold
his own. On account of the desperate
situation there General Kuropatkin has
not attempted to drive home his coun'
ter stroke at the Japanese center and
his offensive, which was abortive, has
been abandoned. At the same time,
encouraged by the progress of the
main turning movement west, General
kuroki again pressed forward from
the east against General Linevitch,
forcing the Russians to give ground.
1t is rumored that Kuropatkin has
already given the order to retreat and
that he is gradually withdrawing
forces from the center, but experts are
inclined to believe that he has waited
too long, that he must fight it out in
his present position and that it is i'm
possible to extricate more than the
remnants OF his army.
At the war Office it is said that the
Japanese siege guns from Port Ar.
thur, with range of eight miles, are
causing terrible punishment. Nothing
can stand up against them.
