RUSSIANS BUILD RAILWAY
Evidence of Plan to Attempt Turning
Japanese Right

BY Associated Pr1ss
TOXIC, Feb. 20.-It is reported that
the Russians have constructed two
light railways, one connecting Fushun
and Yenling, and another extending
from Fushun to the upper Salthe. This
railway building, in connection with
other activities, and the heavy concen-
tration of troops indicates plan to
turn Gen. Kuroki's right.
Gen. Kuropatkin is continuing his
operations of increasing his entire de-
fenses and gives indication of a reso-
lutte intention of retaining his position
when the expected great battle occurs.
The Toxic newspapers print the
statement that 1926 Japanese who were
captured at Heikoutai were roped to-
gether and paraded through the streets
of Mukden. This information comes
from Chinese sources, and it is impos-
sible to obtain verification here.
1t IS expected that there will be an
official inquiry into the matter and
that the Japanese government will
make protest if the report is found to
be true.

be completed in order that the gov
ernment may be carried on. There re-
mains in committee the last of the ap-
preparation bills-the general de1ci-
ency, which is held back for emerg-

The statehood bill is to be considered
in conference during the week, but
there Is nothing to indicate that an
agreement will be reached before the
session is in it's last moments.
The public buildings bill is to be
matter of contest during the week

enthusiastic in its support.
A combined movement on the part
of the committee on rules has been
organized for the purpose of securing
a rule for the passage of this bill.

CELEBRATES A "PANNICHIDA"
Impressive Scene Enacted at Russian
Cathedral in New York
BY Associated Press.


BY Associate Press
NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-At the Rus
sian cathedral of st. Nicholas pan
nichida' or requiem masb for Grand
Duke Sergius of Russia was celebrated
today. The scene was most impressive
as the great congregation holding
lighted candles responded to the chants
Of the black-robed priests officiating
at the catafalque, which had been
placed in the center of the edifice.
Rev. Alexander Hotovitzky, the
pastor. in his sermon said that the as.
sassination of Grand Duke Sergius
was a sad blow against the real free
dom of Russia that the act of the
assassin would not bring about bet
terment of conditions, but that violence
would retard the liberal tendencies OF
that country; that the act furthermore,
was not perpetrated by Russians or by
men who had the welfare of Russia at
heart, for no real patriot would throw
a bomb into the Kremlin, which is a
sacred place. Russia, said the preach
er, was maligned and calumniated
throughout the world, and many of the
infamous charges against the Russian
government were wholly untrue and
other happenings were exaggerated fol-
political purposes.
