MADE DASH FOR SAFETY
Russian Raiders Forced to Beat a
Hasty Retreat

TOXIC, Jan. 1S-In military circles
here it is not anticipated that there
will be any further difficulty with
Lieut.. Gen. Mistchenko's Cossack raid
ers. 1t is believed that the raiding
troops were probably limited to those
which attacked Newchwang and Nieu-
chiatun.
There is no evidence to indicate that
the Cossacks were strongly supported.
Steps were taken to. block their re-
treat but they evidently found it ne
cessary to retire as swiftly as they
came in order to avoid being captured.
1t is believed here that the Cossacks
planned dash on the railroad for the
purpose of intercepting Gen. Nogi's
big guns which are on the way to the
Shake river and also to upset Field
Marshal Oyama's transport communi-
cations.

DISCUSSES RUSSIAN NOTE
Russian Ambassador Calls on Secre-
tary Hay at state Department

tary Hay at state Department
By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.--Count Cas-
sini, the Russian ambassador, called
at the state department today to talk
with Secretary Hay respecting the for
NAL and general protest made by Rus
sia against alleged violations of neu-
trality by China during the present
war.
The ambassador had been informed
by his government by cable that the
full text of the Russian circular note
or protest was now on it's way to him,
and he was instructed to submit it to
Secretary Hay upon receipt.
Upon the first announcement of Rus
sia's intention to file this protest it was
apprehended here that it might be the
the part of Russia which would vi
tiate the agreement entered into by the
belligerents at the outbreak of the war
to restrict hostilities to a certain we'll
defined area, which undertaking was
effected through the United States gov
ernment with the early cooperation Of
the powers and of China.
Now, however, the belief obtains that
the action of Russia in dispatching
this note to the powers is intended,
not to indicate immediate action to-
ward obliging China to remedy the
matters complained of at present. but
rather to have on file record of q
grievance against the Chinese govern
ment, which can be brought up for
consideration at the conclusion of hos
tilities and during the negotiations
which will effect permanent settle
ment of the eastern question.

Rx Aasnclai.d Press.

by AHt0CtHNeu fGesst
NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Brodie l..
Duke, half brother of the president of
the American Tobacco company, whose
recent marriage resulted in his COM
mitment to a sanitarium, was brought
into the supreme court In Brooklyn to-
day on a write of habeas corpus. and
after hearing. was sent to the Long
Island home until Thursday next. on
that date a commission appointed by
Justice Gaynor is to meet to inquire
into Mr.. Dukes condition and make a
report as to whether he is insane.
Mr.. Duke was not questioned, nor
did he offer any statement during the
proceedings. An attempt was made to
question MIR. Duke as he entered the
carriage to go to the sanitarium, but
the physicians prevented it. AS the
carriage started, however, Mr. Duke
leaned out of the window and shouted,
II am going to fight this thing to the
last"
Before Mr.. Duke was taken to the
sanitarium he was in conversation
with three physicians at the court
house. At the conclusion of the talk
one Of the physicians said Mr.. Duke
was apparently sane, but in weak
ened physical condition.
The writ of habeas corpus on which
Mr.. Duke was brought into court to-
cay was obtained by w. G. Bramham
of Durham, N. c., who has acted as
private secretary for Mr. Duke. Coun-
sci for Mr.. Bramham argued for an
immediate examination of Mr.. Duke
in court to determine whether or not
he was insane. This was objected to
by Delancey Nicoll, who said he repre-
sented members of Mr.. Dukes family
and who insisted that Mr.. Dukes san
ity should be determined by conf
mission appointed by Justice Gaynor.
Mr. Bramhams counsel insisted up
on an immediate examination by the
court but Justice Gaynor refused and
ordered Duke committed to a sanitar-
ium until January 10.
AS the proceedings were about to
adjourn, Mr. Nicoll requested that Mr..
Duke be transferred from Sandford
Hall to the, Long Island home. This
request was granted by Justice Gaynor
and the proceeding was closed.

Correspondent Finds No Lack of Food
at Port Arthur
BY Associated Press.
LONDON, Jan. 14.-The correspond
ent at Port Arthur of the Times says:
"The total number of soldiers, sea-
men and civilians in Port Arthur at the
beginning of the siege was $4,000.
There are no signs of privation,
There was food sufficient for two
months and the surrender of the Rus
sian garrison seems inexplicable."
The Daily Mails correspondent gives
a story to the effect that all the money
in Port Arthur was divided among the
officers and when this was discovered
bitter feeling arose in the army and
navy, which feeling was largely re-
sponsible for the fall of the fortress.

the hands of the United States sena-
tors.
