STATEMENT SUBMITTED BYg
 ADVERTISER CORRESPONDENT

Davis and Moseley before they made the threats. Thus 1t ap- pears to me that Colonel Berry has been misinformed on some points and not informed on others. Also 1t ap- pears that his remarks are calculated to shield and encourage officers of the law to insult a newspaper man when he goes in pursuit Of police news. But this may be much ado about nothing, for. forsooth. Colonel Berry was ruled out of order.''
 The failure of the Council to take drastic action last night by no means indicates that the matter will be allow ed to cool. By legal process and by all justice to the policemen against whom charges have been made they must be given official notice of five days.
 This the Council did and Policemen Moseley and Davis will stand trial next Wednesday night, the City Council being the tribunal.
 Since the occurrence at police head quarters Monday the Selma newspapers have been commenting on the alleged rash and unwarranted act of the police men, and public sentiment in favor of punishing the two policemen is today as marked as during the first of the Wetk. ABdin toody pOtu papers oe- voted their leading editorials to an ap- peal to he Council to bring about bet ter conditions in the police depart ment In its account of the address of Councilman Berry to the Council last night The Journal today says:
 Mir. Berry argued that the officers had not done anything that any other man would not have done under im- portunities for a statement.
 Colonel Berry seemed to forget that the remarks of the newspaper man were addressed entirely to Oficer Smith and not to the suspended men,"
 The supplemental report of the Mayor to the Council follows:
 "Complyig with certain statutory provisions I submit the following for your consideration.
 Tn the matter of the suspension of Officers Ben Mosely and J. B. Davis l submit the following charge: That said J. B. Davis and Ben Mosely did use language in the police room on Monday, the 18th inst, to a citizen that should not have been used and that their conduct on said occasion was such as was conducive to a breach of the peace. instead of preserving the same, conduct unbecoming an officer"
 (Signed) V. B. Atkins, Mayor"

com, the American minister at Toxic,

contraband of war has been sunk by
the Japanese, whereas the Russians
sent to the bottom nine Japanese
steamers and four small sailing ships.
The minister states that no vessel
was captured by the Russians. who
resorted to sinking the enemy's craft.

own ships for the purpose of blocking

is regarded as possible that further
developments in the Venezuelan situ-
alton may be forthcoming in a few
days, but it is not believed here they
will add to its seriousness.

sANTo DOMINICAN AFFAIRS.
Cabinet Decides to Make No Change
i'm Present Status.

Washington, March 25.-The cab
met discussed the situation in Santo
Domingo and it was the general opin-
ion that nothing there warrants any
change in the present method of pro-
cedure The agent of the United
States government will make an in
yestigation for the purpose of obtain
ing the information asked for by the
senate.
The failure of the senate to ratify
the treaty with the Dominican govern
ment has embarrassed the admins
tration and nothing now will be done
except to initiate an investigation into
the affairs of the island government
with view simply to obtain definite
information. The present status on
the island, so far as this government
is concerned, will not be disturbed.

RETIRE BEYOND HARDIN
RUSSIANS WILL GET OUT OF DAN.
GER OF HAVING coMMUNI-
CATIONS SEVERED.
NAY RETREAT TO THE AnUR RIVER
SEVERAL LOCALITIES SPOKEN
OF AS THE NEW POINT OF
CONCENTRATION.

ct. Petersburg, March 25.-The
news from the front continues TO in
dicate preparations for a withdrawal
of the main portion of the Russian
army beyond Harbin so as to place 1t
out of danger of having its communi-
cations with Russia severed If it Is
found impracticable to attempt TO
hold the line at the Sungari river.
Tsitsihar, 900 miles west of Harbin,
is mentioned by several correspond
ents in a fashion to suggest that 1t
will be the new point OF concentra-
tion, although others speak of the
Amur river.
A light flying column of Japanese
cavalry is reported to be moving
hastily across the country towards
Tsitsihar, while a heavier column is
going northeast in the direction OF
Eladivostok.
One correspondent at Gunshu Pass,
Manchuria, intimates that the Japa-
nese may adopt the tactics of reliey-
ing the direct pressure on General
Linevitch in the hope of inducing him
to concentrate as far as possible be-
low Harbin, which would give Field
Marshal Oyama the advantage of pre-
pairing his next blow without greatly
lengthening his line OF communica-
tons. Linevitch's decision to be pre-
pared to place his main army beyond
the reach of a decisive stroke while
awaiting reinforcements may have
been taken in order to avoid just
such trap.

BUFFALO BILL LOSES SUIT.
Court Denies Application for Divorce
From Mrs. Cody.

@oGIh bcHicS NPplSdttoH ioi 1'sSiSS
From Mrs. Cody.
Sheridan, Wyo., March PA de-
cision in favor of Mrs. Cody has been
handed down by Judge Scott in the
suit for a divorce instituted by But
falo Bill. An appeal will be taken to
the supreme court of the state. Buff
falo Bill charged desertion and also
claimed that Mrs. Cody tried to poi
son him. In handing down his de-
eision Judge Scott said
"The law of the state does not
make incompatibility ground for
divorce, but it does read that ex-
treme cruelty rendering the condition
OF either party to the marriage con-
tract intolerable is sufficient grounds
to allow the granting of divorce.
The first cause of action in this case
is the charge of poisoning on Dec. 20,
1900, or some time prior thereto. The
evidence wholly fails to support this
issue but shows the defendant was
trying to rescue the plaintiff )m
state OF intoxication and administered
not poison, but remedies which she
deemed beneficial to him. His inabll-
ity to speak on this occasion did not
come from these remedies, but came
from his excessive use of Intoxicating
LIQUORS at the banquet board and was
as humiliating to the defendant as
to the plaintiff"

BUSINESS HOUSES CLOSING.
Women and Children Also Reported
to Be Leaving Harbin.

Gunshu Pass, March 25.-The wo-
men and children are reported TO be
leaving Harbin and the business
houses are closing. The stationary
hospitals are being moved back and
the entire railroad east and south OF
Tsitsihar is being prepared for the
next stage of the war.
: The conviction exists that General
Kuroki is now directing toward the
northeast for the investment of Vladl-
vostok, changing his base for that
purpose to Gensan.
While the Manchurian railway is
employed to supply the main army IN
its advance on Harbin the Japanese
seem still partial to the plan OF keep
ing close to their sea bases and in
stead of following the Russians some
Of the military experts are OF the
opinion that the Japanese may re-
lieye the pressure upon General Line
witch and thus induce him TO concen-
trato in the region between Santoupu
and Tie pass for another battle. But
throughout the campaign all the
ADMINISTRATIONS of experts regarding
the plans of the Japanese failed, the
aspirations of the Japanese consls-
tently fattening upon the victories
achieved.
The rank and file OF the Russian
army show peculiar ability to con-
form with the new conditions aad
accommodate themselves to the
wishes and intentions OF the COM
nander-in-chief and the government.

either alone or in conjunction with
other powers having differences with
Venezuela TO take vigorous measures

sailors illegally imprisoned for seven
months in that country.

change in the situation in the Far

ships maintaining neutrality in the
Dutch East indies can be transferred
to Venezuelan waters in May.
