GARRISON GOES-OUT.
Surrender of Port Arthur COmplet.
ed-RuSSianS Once More Get
Full Ration.

With Gen. Nogi's Headquarters Be-
fore Port Arthur, Jan. Am long,
slowly moving columns, four abreast,
their tattered uniforms showing in pit
iful contrast with the nobby appear
ance of their Japanese guards. the
members of the garrison Of Port Ar
thur walked out Of the fortress and
crossed the glacis leading TO the camps
this morning
Some walked with difficulty-con-
valescnts who had been pressed into
men. Not man but seemed tired unto
death. Their cheeks pale and sunken,
military training gone from their bear
ing. some emaciated to skeletons, their
clothes hanging loosely about them.
Some with bandages around their
heads, others with left arms in sings
A very few of them walked silent.
The others whispered among each 9TH
or. in plain infringement upon disci-
plinary rules. There was no reproof,
however. The buzz of their voices was
as sigh of relief heaved by giant.
The days of torture and Of suffering
untold we're over. For them the Russo
Japanese war is ended.
On their horses Japanese officers rode
up and down the columns, giving or.
ders to the guards on foot. But there
was no need for vigilance. Not break
occurred in the line. They came down
the hill, their gait accelerating as they
neared the goal.
Further down they saw an imposing
display of successful power, the jap
anese office.s, who had lined up to re-
ceive them as prisoners, to call the roll
from the depleted lists and then to pro.
nounce their fate. 1t may be assumed
that the news Of the generosity Of the
victors had spread into every nook and
corner Of every fort long ere the order
to evacuate was given. The story is
told now that some few had recalled
the reports current weeks ago that the
Japanese would take terrible ven.
geance, and if they were prevented
from killing they would inf1ict suffer
ing in some other way.
Mercifully the Japanese officers in
charge Of the men shortened the bust
ness as much asc ould be done under
the circumstances. Then the order to
move was given.
Inside of half an hour every prisoner
sat in front Of full ration, something
not enjoyed by any Of them for many
weeks past. Each man was allowed
quantity of spirits. 1t was not long
before Japanese, passing Russian
with full glass, bent down and
c]inked it with his enemy. The exam.
pie Was contagious.
The Japanese have learned good
deal of Russian, and vice versa. Sol
diers understood each other, and the
one topic of conversation, Port Arthur,
its strength and it's weakness, is famil-
lar to them all. Before the sun had
much more than made its presence felt,
the besiegerss Of Port Arthur and its
defeated defenders were fraternizing.

Prosecutor Heney Talks of Oregon
and Fra,ad Matters

1ouO UoOO IbotuCGSs
San Francisco, Jan. 4.-Attorney
Francis J. Heney, discussing the land
fraud cases last night said:
1.-THE extent of the land fraud cases
in Oregon is far greater than l imag-
ined, even after learned the extent of
the Hyde Benson frauds throuhg my
connection with the prosecution Of
that case. Oregon is under the dom.
ination of corrupt political ring,
which hesitates at nothing to accom-
plish its ends. Hundreds of thousands
of acres Of the finest timber lands in
the world have been secured from the
United States within the last five years
by half dozen individuals, through
fraud, perjury and subornation of per-
jury. The good people Of Oregon will
be as much surprised when they hear
the evidence in the case against Sena.
tor Mitchell and Congressman Her.
mann as they were when they heard
the evidence in the cases of Puter, Nc.
Kinley and others. which have already
been tried, and in which the defend
ants were convicted. The case against
Mitchell and Hermann does not de.
pend in the slightest degree upon the
testimony Of Puter. The evidence is
sufficient to warrant action without
placing either of them upon the stand
as witnesses.
"The indictments already procured
touch only the edge Of the vast frauds
which have been perpetrated in Ore.
gon. The grand jury and l have fully
a months work ahead Of rs, and ex.
pect to procure the indictment of at
least dozen prominent and wealthy
persons who have prof1ted most by
these frauds. 1t may become neces.
sary for me to request the removal Of
certain other federal officers in Oregon
before we complete our investigation,
but recognize the grave RESPONSE ility
which rests upon me in making such
requests and am proceeding with the
utmost caution and will not expect the
president to act until am in posses
sion Of unimpeachable evidence of i'm
proper conduct of such officers

MAY ABOLISH 1T
PRESIDENT DiSpLEASED WITH CA
NAL COMMISSION.
Believes NemberS Should Reside in
the Zone to Properly Direct the
Work-BOard of Engineers Pro-
posed to Carry on the Work
of Construction.

Washington, Jan. 4-There is we'll
defined movement on foot to secure leg.
islation during this session Of congress
that will abolish the isthmian canal
com mission and place the construction
under the direct supervision of board
Of engineers, of which Chief Engineer
Wallace is to he the executive head,
and the other members, five in num-
Der, to be consulting engineers. 1t is
understood that Secretary Of War Taft,
who made a recent visit to the isthmus
under the direction of the president,
has recommended the abolition of the
commission, which will include the
retirement of Governor General Davis,
of the canal zone.
There is slight prospect Of any canal
legislation at this session, although it
is known that President Roosevelt feels
tsrongly in favor Of the adoption by
congress Of some working plan under
which more satisfactory progress can
be made. The administration favors
an amendment to the present Spooner
law embodying the reorganization.
Although there is strong sentiment in
congress in favor Of the abolition Of
the commission, any attempt to secure
such legislation will meet strong oppo-
sition.
The brief Limitation on the life of
this congress may enable the opposi-
ton to successfully delay reorganiza-
tion. 1t is betraying no confidence to
announce that the president is dis
pleased with the present management
Of affairs by the commission. He feels
that the members should 60 on the
ground, and not direct the construc-
ton Of the canal from Washington.
He is also displeased over the fac.
that the commission has already award.
ed contracts for supplies amounting in
value to million and a half dollars
without competitive bidding.
1t is understood that if the desired
canal legislation cannot be secured at
this session Of congress the president
has decided to order the members of
the commission to take up their resi-
dence upon the canal zone, and that
under the power given him by the
| Spooner law he will define the duties
that he desires each to perform.
There is wide diversity Of opinion
among the members of the commission
as to the methods to be pursued. No
two can agree, although they have Civ
en- the plans careful study and each
has become firmly convinced that his
plan is best. The president feels that
a closer residence upon the isthmus
might enable the commissioners to har.
moniously unite upon some plan.

Morristown, n. J.. June 24.-After protests at
his decisions from the players and the two
thousand onlookers at baseball game here to-
day between the Montclair Athletic Club and
the Morristown Field Club, players and spec
tators were frightened by the umpire falling on
the field in a dead faint. In the middle of the
fifth inning the umpire man named Newman,
said he would leave the field If there any
more trouble.
The next man up hit by pitched ball
and Newman declared that he could not take
his base The enraged players almost threatened
Newman with violence while the crowd Kissed
and hooted He walked off of the grounds. but
came back. After he took his position in the
field he cried out: My God. boys. I'm going,
and started for the side line. He tainted at
first base and in less than minute there were
a thousand people around him. Efforts to revive
him were unayailing for several minutes and
for a time he thought to be dead He
finally recovered and insisted on going on with
the game but was overruled and assisted to the
clubhouse.

Crezo of Nantasket Pulls Out Men
Rescuers Ducked.

The steamer Nantasket of the Long lslano
Railroad Company's line, ran down naph1ha
launch in midstream off North Brother isi'"'
shortly after dark last night. The launch was
overturned and sunk Three men in 1t were
thrown in all directions, and for nearly haiI az
hour the life saving crew of the steamer pattie+e
to save them and in doing so one OF the lie
boats was also overturned and James darolns'
of the crew, got duckng
Not any of the men off the launch could sw1rn'
and all had gone down for the last time when
the steamers crew picked them up exhausted
All three were sufficiently recovered when the
steamer reached 31st-st. to get off and go to
their homes in Harlem.
The crew of the steamer quite modest
about their work and it wouldn't have been
known had not some stray launch seen the
struggle in the river
Captain Carroll of the Nantasket, took the
names of the men, but abed when the news
paper men reached Pier IA, where it lands. One
of the mates said of the men gave the
name of J. B. Saunders, and an address in Har-
lem He and his son and another man were in
the launch.

planned "off North Brother Island just after 8
o'clock She had no light The wonder is that
the men were saved. Captain Carroll ordered
the Iifeboats out at once. The launch went
down in a second. 1t was fully half an hour
before we were able to drag the men aboard
They had the narrowest escape L ever saw
When taken on board the men We're not IN

their names. At midnight officers from the Old
Slip station hurried down 10 the pier, saying
they had been informed that all three men were
dead. but the men were aliVe enough 10 "aih

COSSACK KILLED BY A GIRL.
Thursday, the Feast of Corpus Christi, passed
off quietly but in the night workmen attacked
the patrols. In this fighting two officers and
seven Cossacks were killed. One Of the soldiers
was shot by girl thirteen years old.
At dawn on Friday day of terror began. The
city was given up TO bloodshed- Anarchy and
fierce street fighting prevailed all day. Barri-
cades were hurriedly constructed in the jewish
quarter at dawn. Men climbed to the roofs OF
houses, cutting telephone and telegraph wires
to use for entangIements in the streets while
others cut down telegraph poles and used them
in strengthening the barricades which already
had been constructed and in building others.
Early In the day two bombs were thrown from
the crowd into the barracks, killing or wound
ing twenty soldiers. This started the shedding
Of blood, which continued until after nightfall.
At II o'clock all the factory hands struck and
focked into the streets. Cossacks. dragons
and infantry charged the dense, surging mobs
time after time, firing volley after volley into
the thick masses
The rioters replied with revolvers, while their
comrades on roofs and in windows Joined in
tbe fusiIIade. Some dashed vitriol from points
Of vantage on the troopers in the streets below.
The burning fluid drove its victims into frenzy
and led to scenes of terrible character.
THE CITY IN DARKNESS.
Fighting continued through the day and dt-
minished in intensity only at nightfal, when
the city was plunged into darkness, practically
all the street lamps having been destroyed.
Even then occasional volleys and scattered rifle
shots were heard IN different quarters the
troops having received orders to shoot any per-
| son appearing in the streets.
! The dead were carted off to the cemeteries IN
military wagons, the troops acting as under
takers. but this morning many dead and wound
ed were still lying in the streets and court
yards.
The plight of the wounded is dreadful, for no
medical aid is obtainable and many are dying
