KUROPATkIN And
OYAMA REAPPEAR
Russian Artillery Gets Busy,
but Snow and Fog
Hinder

GEN. KUROKTS HEADQUAR-
TIERS, JAM 27 (via Fusan) n).-Regular
Manchurian weather prevails tonight,
intense cold with snow. Sounds of bat
tie were heard at intervals along the
sian artillery was feeling the whole
Japanese line.
1t is uncertain whether this will
bring on general engagement or not.
The japanese guns refrained from re-
plying TO the Russians except on the
left, where the fighting, which ceased
at dark yesterday, was renewed this
morning. The clouds and snow made
it impossible to see more than a few
hundred feet away. The Russian fire
was largely guess work Early this
afternoon the firing stopped. If the
Russian operations were preliminary
to a general attack. as appears possi-
BILE, their plans were frustrated by the
storm and fog. They could not have
chosen worse time.
Autocracy chuekIes
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 2S. - The
news of Gen. Kuropatkins successful
repulse of the Japanese advance comes
most opportunely. The belief exists
here that Field Marshal Oyama sought
to take advantage of any depression
prevailing in the Russian ranks as the
result of the news from st. Peters
burg to launch an attack against Gen.
Kuropatkins right; but the Russian
commander-in-ch chief seems to have
turned the table, inf1icting considerable
loss upon the japanese Thursday and
taking several positions westward
along the plain of the Hun river.
Evidently Gen. Kuropatkin is fol-
lowing up his victory, the latest dis
patches from the front, dated o'clock
in the evening of Jan. 81, indicating
that there is battle in progress ex-
tending along the center and becom-
ing more and more serious. However
it seems to be confined to artillery. Ii
the fighting develops into a general
engagement military men here believe
that it must reach out to the tanks.

KOCH is RELEASED
ON $4,000 Bail
New Trial of Gebhard's Alleged
Slayer Is Fixed for Feb. Z
at Mankato
Special to The Globe

Special to The Globe
NEW ULM, Mimi, Jan. 27.-The al
legged slayer of Dr.! L. A. Gebhard is
out on bail. DR.. G. r. Koch, who has
been confined in the Brown county Jail
since Dec. 8. 1904, was released this
afternoon, being admitted to bail in
the sum of $4,000. The new trial will
take place at Mankato, beginning.
Feb. z.
The arguments were heard by Judge
-Webber this afternoon and over an
hour was consumed by Attorney L. L.
Brown and Gen. III. w. Childs. DR..
Koch was in the court room, attended
by a deputy sheriff and Attorneys
Brown, Someryille and Abbott. Very
few people had an inkling that the
matter would come up today, as the
court had decided to hear the applica-
ton for bail tomorrow. As the attor-
neys for the state and defense were
in the city the judge was prevailed
upon to grant them a hearing at once.
Cites Points for Prisoner
Attorney Brown presented an aff1-
davit signed Drs Fritsche, Scoch and.
Weiser stating that the defendant was
greatly emaciated because of his in
generation and had become frail of
body and that his health was greatly
impaired as he had been accsist to
exercise and the close confinement had
wrought great bodily injury. He laid
particular stress on the disagreement
of the jury and said it had been the
custom under similar conditions to
grant bail by courts in other states
He stated that upon the nature Of
the proof in this case, which cannot
move the mind beyond the region of
doubt on the question Of the guilt of
the accused, it cannot be said that the
proof is evidence or the presumption
great and the disagreement of the jury
ought to be clear that the defendant is
entitled to bail as matter of right
and it should be granted, in the dis
cretion of the court"
chiIds Opposes
Gen. H w. Childs, for the state, OBJ
jected to the granting of bail. He said
that criminal intent was especially
strong in this case and there was an
abundance of evidence which created a
strong presumption of guilt. There was
a correlation of remarkable series of

New Orleans, oct. 13.-Owing proba- bly, to the publication yesterday of sensational story in a new afternoon paper a run began today on the Ger mania savings bank and many small depositors gathered at the institution and withdrew their deposits. A force of policemen kept the crowd in order and each depositor was promptly paid as he presented his book, the omcers of the bank having made provision against the run.

Few or the depositors knew the reason for the run The officers of the bank said that the bank was in an impregnable condition and that all who desired would be promptly paid, business men generally having shown their confidence by of fering large sums of money to the in stitution. The story printed was to the effect that the bank held $SO,00O or the mortgage bond of the Rushmire Planting Company in which Nice- President Blaffer of the bank Is in torcsted and that the company had de- ftulted MT.

 Recent mild weather might have been expected to retard business, but freight blockades and several similar condi- tions testify to the contrary, and the last half of the week brought sea sonable fall in temperature. Higher rates for money tend to prevent eX- cesses in Wall Street; yet there Is no difficulty in securing funds for mercan, tile undertakings.
