after October 9TH.

The board of consulting engin-
GERS composed of Attorney Morris

ey will come to North Yakima to
consider the material that has been
prepared by the engineers on the
Tietan project.
While no member of the cossul.-
ing board has intimated that he
will advise the construction Of this
project, it has been intimated from
time to time as the engineering
work progressed that the chances
were good for developing scheme
that the engineers would recon-
mend. 1t is probable that the cost
of the Tietan canal will be larger
than has been supposed. 1t is
said that the figures will be around
$40 per acre, including the cost of
dam for storage purposes. This
is considerably higher than some

Story of the Fight .

London, May S0.-According to the correspondent of The Daily Mail at Seoul Korea, early on Saturday norn- ing Vice-Admiral Togo with practically all the powerful fighting ships of the Japanese navy, was at Massampho, Korea, when wireless signals from his scouts between Tsu and Quelpart Js- lands announced the approach of the Russian fleet in full force. A few hours later the scouts reported that the Rus sians were not ascending the western channel, as had been anticipated, but that they were coming up the eastern channel. which cahsed some surprise.
 Admiral Togo immediately started at full speed around the north of Tsu is- lands and when he doubled the islands he saw the Russians coming :n two columns. He then brought a terrific fire to bear on the flank of the port column and as the Russians fell into disorder he forced them steadily east ward towards the Japanese coast, where they were attacked by every vessel that flew the Japanese lag.
 Repeated torpedo attacks were de- livered. some of them with greatest success. The vessels which escaped. the correspondent says. will probably be able to reach Vladivostok and he

THE CHICAGO STRIKE.
POLICE HAVE COMPARATIVELY AN EASY DAY.
Employers Announce Their Intention to Urge More Active and Aggres- sive Fight on Union Labor
 CTS This Week.

Chicago, May 29.-Renewed aggres. siveness on the part of the employers in the teamsters strike Is expected or Wednesday,. Taking advantage of tht legal holiday which will come tomofs row.. plans will be formed for exten. ~~~ely increasing the amount of de1iv. cries to be made from the lumber districts. The down town business houses. where strikes exist. have al present about 400 unemployed drivers These they cannot use on account oi tho inability of the police department to furnish protection for them and or Wednesday these men will be sent ts the firms in the lumber districts whjcf are in need of drivers and q strone and determined effort will be made tS increase the volume of business dons in that section.
 The lumber dealers had two hun dred teams in operation today. There was but little disturbances during teh day and none of the fights was suf- ficiently serious to call for the Inter- ference of any large body of police.
 Practically all of the teamsters em- ployed in the hardwood dealers in the lumber district are now out and the soft lumber dealers arc tied up, com. paratively speaking, with the excep- tion of one firm which continues to do business with union teamsters. Notwithstanding the shortage in lum- Der deliveries, the building contractors express themselves as highly confi- dent that there will be no strike of their men and no tie up in the build ing industry. In this they are borne out by the statement of the business agents of the various building trade unions which ar to the effect that no strike will be called by any union on account of the delivery of material by non union men. In the event of a strike, however, by any number or men in the building trades union, their walkout will be their individual act and will not receive any strike bene" fits.
 The May grand jury commenced to- day an investigation into the strike, directing its inquiry particularly to that feature which Is said to involve the payment of money for an attempt to bring about a sediment of the diff ficulty by a number of the labor leaders. It was also proposed to in- oulre into the existence of an alleged blacklist against the striking express wagon drivers. The general agents of the express companies were subpoe- naed but all of them informed the jurors that they had no knowledge whatever of the existence or a OlacA list. -..
 The day failed to bring out any new or sensational evidence and the Jury adiourned until Wednesday.
 In the hearing before Master in Chancery T. V. Cavanaugh, an offcer of the team owners association denied the statement made by Robert J. Thorne. assistant secretary of Mont gomery Ward and Company, and oth- CTS interested in the present strike 10 the efSect that there was an under standing or conspiracy between team sters and the members of the team owners association.

Third report received Monday, May 29. Main force of our combined squadron continued pursuit since the 27th and attacked 2sth near Ilancourt rocks (northeast of Okinoshima) a group consisting of Nicolai I (battle- ship) orel (battleship). Senyavin. Ap- rexin, and Izumurud. Izumurud fled, while remaining four vessels surren- dered. No damage to our ships. Ac- cording to statement of prisoners ves- sells sunk in engagement May 27 were Borodino (battleship). Alexandra III (battleship), Zemtchug. and three other ships. Rear Admiral Nebogatoff and about 2,000 other Russians were taken prisoners.
 The following are damages suffered by the enemy In addition to those given above since commencement of battle as reported by commanders not under immediate command of Togo and by observation stations:
 Sunk, Admiral Nachimoff, Dmitri Donskoi. Svietlana, Admiral Usakoff, Kamchatka. Irutshush and three des- troyers. Captured. Vladimir Monomach. foundered afteF capture, one special service ship, whole name unknown. and destroyer.
 Russian losses definitely known so far nay be classified as follows: Two battleships, one coast defense ship, five cruisers, two special ships, three des- troyers were sunk; two battle ships. two coast defense ships, one special ship, one destroyer were captured. It Is not yet clear whether three vessels as stated by prisoners to have been in cluded are included or not in above list. There are more than. 1000 prison CTS, beside 1000 taken by main force of combined squadron.
 The, naval engagement Is still in pro- gress, so that 1t will take some time before the final results can be known.

The Emperor Breaks Down and WeepS When He
 Hears the News.
Nothing Definite Known as to Fate of IlI-starred Commander, One Ru- mor Saying He Has Perished. More Talk of Peace is
 Being Heard.

Latest advices confirm the magni- nitude of the disaster suffered by the Russian fleet and point to the fact that Russia's hope so far as this war Is concerned lies in what may be accom- plished by the army in Manchuria.
 An official report received from Tokio by the Japanese legation at Washing ton Monday evening says that the Rus sian losses definitely known include two battIeships, a coast defense ship. i've cruisers, two special service ships and three destroyers sunk. and two battleships. two coast defense ships, one destroyer and one special service ship captured, while over 5000 prison- CTS have been taken. including Rear Admiral Nebogatoff.
 The Japanese, 1t would seem, are still pursuing the Russians and 1t may be some time before the final result is known.
 There is nothing to indicate clearly the extent of the Japanese losses and it Is suggested from one source that the Tokio Government is waiting to hear from Admiral Rojestvensky by way of vladivostok before announcing to what extent its fleet has suffered.
 The news of the disaster has caused deep depression in official Russia, though it is not yet known generally among the Russian people. Rojest- vensky's defeat has given rise to re- newed talk of peace.
 It is pointed out by the Associated Press St. Petersburg correspondent that Russia in this crisis will turn to France. through its foreign minister, M. Delcasse, while from Washington comes information that President Roosevelt, in accordance with his promise, announced a long time ago. is taking steps to do all in his power to bring about peace negotiations.
 Nothing has been heard from Vice Admiral Rojestvensky. In Tokio there is some belief that he has perished. while another source says he was res- cued by a torpedo boat, but he is wounded.

FRANCE DEPRESSED.
Public Opinion Fairly Stunned by News
 of the Battle.


 of the Battle.
 Paris, May 29.-The magnitude of the Russian naval disaster has fairly stunned French public opinion which had hoped that late advices would show that Japan had also suffered some share of the losses However, despatches showing that the Japa- nese fleet escaped practically un- scathed from the encounter dispelled the hope entertained that Vice Ad- miral RoJestvensky, by sacrificing a portion of his fleet, had succeeded in crippling Vice Admiral Togos fleet to such an extent that the Japanese would be placed in a position of inferiority. Therefore, the disaster is generally discussed by the officials, the public and the press in tone of depression. the prevailing view being that Russia now will be compelled to seek some means of terminating the war.
 The Bourse first gave evidence of a strong peace sentiment by the buoy ancy of the market The leading jour nals, including the semi official Temps, urged peace, declaring that Russia has played her last card. The officials, however, took a conservative view maintaining it was too early to forsee the effect until Russia's side had been heard and fuller details were avail able.
 It was stated in diplomatic quarters tonight that while the result of the battle would contribute to eventual peace, 1t did not give any immediate prospect of the opening of negotia- tions to that end. It was pointed out that the obstinacy of the character of the Russians would probably impel them to turn their hopes toward Lieu tenant General Linevitch and await the result of another land battle.
 It was said in this connection that the land situation would not be likely to permit Field Marshal Oyama to strike another decisive blow within two weeks thus prolonging I1Issias hopes on land and deferring her will ingncss to ask for peace
