 The resolution concludes with the state-
 ment that unless the demands are granted by 2 p. m. March 3. they will
 refuse to elect fifty representatives, and if granted acceptance of the condition is to be pfacarded on the factory walls. The president of the convention re- viewed with remarkable lucidity the pc sition of St. Petersburg workmen. He said they must have the right to strike. which Is the most important

He pictured starving men begging on their knees for means to support their starving families and said that If they had money and the right to organize they would be strong. whereas with famisaed families and without organi-

A number of men rushed to the plat | form and protested. They said they were not there to discuss religion. These found much opposition from the audience. It was impossible for the chairman to do anything. as he was | ignorant of rules of procedure and allowed every one to talk at once; but. as the business of the meeting was really over. adjournment was secured and the delegates filed out of the hall still arguing the religious phases of their demands.
 Notwithstanding the difficulty aris- ing from this ignorance of methods of parliamentary procedure the con- vention plainly showed that represen- tative Russian workmen are able intel- ligently to discuss public affairs.

 St. Petersburg, March 1.--Lieutenant General Stoessel arrived in St. Peters, burg this morning from Moscow. A quarter of an hour before his train was due 1t looked as if not more than a hundred persons would be present to welcome the defender of Port Arthur, but their number augmented rapidly and when the train steamed Into the depot many hundreds of people, espe- cialIy women crowded on the platform. War Minister Sakharoff and Admiral ziiotti in behalf of the admiralty well corned General Stoessel who was loudly cheered and presented with flowers.
 After receiving the personal congrat- uaitions of friends, the General look ing bronzed and in good health. tra- versed the cheering crowd to recep- tion room stopping now and then to shake hands with admirers. Behind the General came Mrs. Stoessel leaning on the arm of a military officer She looked to be even more bronzed, than her husband and smiled happily at the warm welcome accorded him. It was remarked that the Generals hair had turned quite white.
 In the reception room General Bog danovitch welcomed General Stoessel He reIerreO po thS AutcIhoh SAVaDASo, saying that when General Stoessel left Russia calm prevailed while now an internal enemy was endeavoring to un- dermine the prestige of the state.
 Replying General Stoessel said he had heard while at Constantinople of the disorders in Russia and since then he had travelled in South Russia. had spoken to the people and had noticed their tranquility of mind, especially their loyalty to the Emperor. He was confident that the people would remain loyal and that Russia would issue vic- torious from the present crisis.
 When the reception ceremonies were over General and Mrs. Stoessel entered an open carriage and drove through the Nevsky Prospect to the residence of Lieutenant t-General Prince Viam- esky, a member of the imperial council where they will stay, Crowds in the streets Justify cheered the general. The absence of military and naval offi- cers from the platform was very mo- ticeable. Only a few military men and none Of the officers except Admiral Zilotti were present A large force Of police surrounded the railroad sta- esky's residence was patrolied by nu- merous attachments of Cassaeks and life guards apparently in expectation of a hostile demonstration. Altogether the generals welcome was by no means in the nature of a popular demonstra- ton and lacked genuine enthusiasm Two months ago ali Russia was sing ing the praises of the defender of Port Arthur. yet when he came home com paratively few people assembled to cheer him,

 Oubenepusa. Feb 2S.-via Mukden, March Lone of the coidest and most cheerless operations of the winters warfare in Manchuria was the thir- teen mile retreat of the Tsinketchen division on the night of February 26. from Da Pass to Oubenpusa. All day General Rennenkampoff's soldiers. wearied by a week of continued fight ing and disheartened by the abadon- ment of Tsinketchen, had flung off at- tack after attack by overwhelming numbers of Japanese in order to cover the withdrawal of supplies which had been accumulated in large warehouses at Solun.
 Solun is eight miles in the rear and at the head of horse car line which was constructed from the base at Muk- den in order to provide the advanced position on the left flank. It is five miles north of Oubenepusa where the road from GaG Pass to the eastward joins the main Tsinketchen and Fushun highway. At 6 o'clock on the eve- ming of February 26. the commander of the battalion on the Gao Pass road sent word that he was unable longer to hold out against the Japanese ad- vancing in that direction; but the com- mander of the division was deter mined to hold on until the last wagon should have left Solun. Word was re- ceived at o'clock that the withdrawal had been safely effected and then the dreary retreat began. The The wind was high. the cold bitter and snow was falling heavily. We7~' aad Eupperless the soldiers scare juId see their file leaders. Every m..lIte the rattle of musketry on the Gao pass road became louder and the bursting of shrapnel occasionally illuminated the heights to the eastward. It became evident to every man of the command pIodding through the deepening snow that the danger of being cut off was imminent Only the coolness and lcour- age of the commander averted disaster
 The retreat was so timed that the rear guard reached oubensenpua just in time. The force retreating on the easterly road had been driven in on the villages and the forces, uniting. hx- ed bayonets. turned about and in utter darkness drove the Japanese back two miles. On February 27 the Japanese renewed the attack, but the Russians rapuIsed repeated assaults. Today Feb- ruary 2s. there was desperate fighting, hut the Japanese succeeded in retaining possession of the village.
 The Japanese fought with fanatical bravery. making several night attacks and charging under cover of darkness and a fierce snowstorm. almost up to the muxzles of the Russian batteries. which. met them with canniSter and grape.

 Members of the House sub b-committes who have been investigating the management and operation of the Panama Railway have heard just enough curious and interesting facts about affairs on the isthmus to iead to n desire to broaden the scope of the inquiry and continue their work throughout the summer A joint resolution from the full committee on interstate commerce was submitted to the House today asking that 1t be authorised to investigate ''ine isthmian canal and the Panama RAILWAY through sub-committse to sit In the United States and at Panama The resoiu- tion carried ang appropriation of ss.ooo to pay the expenses of the investigation
 One of the subcommittee said today
 we have heard enough to make us want to know more. Many charges have been brought to our attention which we have not had time to investigate. Allegations have been made which have not been supported by proof. and we wish to prove them"
 The committee Is particularly anxious to learn something definite about proposed pipe line across the isthmus and the iden- tity of the bsckers of the scheme. The pro- ject has come to the surface several times during the recent hearings but its diff ferent sponsors have not shown themselves. There gre contracts of one sort and an- other for supplies about which the com mittee is anxious to secure details. Inter- esting developments are expected through the summer. as some of the important mem hers of the committees are determined that the scandal that marked the progress of the old French company shall not charac- terise our affairs on the isthmus It is thought. too. that early scrutiny will have statutory effect in nipping any grafting schemes that may be under way.
