St. Petersburg, May 26.-News of a successful cavalry raid by Lieutenant General Mistchenko comes in the fol- lowing dispatch from Lieutenant Gen eral LineVitch to the emperor dated May 25: "A cavalry detachment com manded by Lieutenant General Mist chenko, composed of a portion of the south Caucasian brigade and the Trans Baikal Cossacks while engaged May r in repulsing the enemy to the south ward approached Sinlountchouan.

WHY THERE'S NO RUN
The Collapsed OakdaIe Bank Had No
 DepOsitors.

Stockton. Calif., May 2G.-The latest developments in the affairs of the Oakdale bank, the cashier of which Louis Kahn, is lying at the point Of death from a self inflicted buller wound, which it is generally conceded even by his relatives. was fired with intent to commit, suicide. are that the bank has totally collapsed. State bank commissioners are at work on the books of the bank today.
 It is believed now that the loss of the bank is due to loans which Kahn made to himself in the course of bus mess and which will amount to $50,- 0O0. The loss will fall upon the stock holders, as there were no depositors to speak of, and it is this fact which ac- counts for the absence of a run on the concern when news of the shooting of Kahn spread about Oakdale.

with bricks and stones and scores of air rifles, were brought into play. A bullet from one of these weapons ser iously wounded Policeman James Fitz- patrick in the head. Two policemen drew their revolvers and fired over the heads of the rioters holding them at bay until the drivers managed to reach their destination at the yards of the RittenhoCse and Embree Lumber com pany.
 The strike today spread in a small degree throughout the building trades. There were a number of instances where wood workers refused to re- ceive material delivered by non union teamsters and walked out. This move in every instance was made by men as individuals. No official action was taken by any of the material trades unions, looking to an active sympa- thetic support of the teamsters' strike. Several of the labor leaders in the ranks of the material trades have de- clared within the last twelve hours that there is no prospect in their opin- ion of any complete tie-up of the building trades by the strike of the men.
 There is no movement at present looking towards a settlement of the strike. Mayor Dunne today, for the first time, since the commencement of the teamsters strike declared he knew no contemplated plans for peace. The mayor talked as though he had aban- doned hope of a settlement. Alderman Dever. chairman of the city council peace committee, appointed a week ago, said tonight that he had practically ceased work as the committee could see no avenue in the controversy look ing toward an adjustment of the differ ences between the teamsters and em- ployers.
