LOOK FOR A DEFEAT
RUSSIANS At ST. PETERSBURG
DESPAIR OF kURoPATKiN
BEING VICTORIOUS.

ct. Petersburg, March S.-That the
tory with Liaoyang in the long list of
Russian defeats is the almost univer-
sal belief in pessimistic st. Petersburg,
which has forgotten the meaning of
the word victory. The war Office does
not admit that the issues Of the great
battle, which already exceeds in mag
nitude of operations and losses that OF
shahhe. has been decided, although it
is positively stated in high quarters
that kuropatkin has telegraphed to
Emperor Nicholas that it will be i'm
possible to hold Mukden and that the
withdrawal of the army northward has
already been begun. Nothing from
General kuropatkin later than Mon
day has been given out, but advices to
st. Petersburg newspapers and dis
patches to the Associated Press dated
at o'clock Tuesday night indicate
that the position of the Russian army
after a day of furious and unprecedent-
ed fighting is desperate but not abso-
lutely hopeless, some Russian CORE
spondents even predicting Russian
victory soon, and one affirming that
the extreme Japanese left has already
begun to retire southwark.
Everything probably now depends
on General KuroDatkin's reserve.
While the Japanese hurled them
selves forward at every point Tuesday,
their main energies were behind the
blow west and southwest in an attempt
to enyelop the Russian right and drive
wedge through the line at Madya-
pu, but General Kuropatkin seems to
have been able successfully to change
front on the line of his shattered right,
aligning from northwest to southeast.

and at night1all. it was reported, he

Barley Seed From Turkey.

Interesting experiments are to be
made this season by farmers living
northwest of Sioux Falls with barley
seed which was shipped from Smyrna.
Turkey in Asia. The seed was secured
IN that far off land by man interest
ed in the improvement of crops raised
in South Dakota and he is confident it
will, both as to quality and yield. sur
pass any grain of the kind ever raised
In the state. If the experiment proves
this to be the case great quantities OF
additional seed will be shipped from
Smyrna to South Dakota next winter.

Cattle Prices to Be Hioh.

Cattlemen generally throughout the
range are feeling much pleased over
the outlook for the seasons shipments.
They believe that the price of stock
will be high, owing to the scarcity Of
shippers and to the agitation now in
progress against the packers. One
prominent cattleman estimates that
there are not over 100000 head Of all
sizes Of stock on the Western range
between the Missouri river and Cen
tral Montana, which is a third less
than might have been found in the
elehties.

It will be of interest to know that the University of Arizona has received an endowment from the famous Milo s. Bennett es- tate even though the amount is not large, only $500. Thisis the estate of which William J. Bryan was named as executor in the will and a portion of which was left by MT. Bennett for education al purposes, to be used as MT. Bryan should direct It will be remembered that there was ano- ther document left by MT. Ben nett in which a sum was named as a bequest to Mir. Bryan per-, sonally and concerning which there has yet been no final decis- ion of the contest instituted by the widow.
 But of the sum MT. Bryan was to devote to educational pur- poses $500 was allotted to Ari- zona and sometime ago Presi- dent Babcock of the university received a draft for the amount from MT. and Mrs. Bryan, with the explanation that it was to be invested or held in trust by the university and, and the inter- est was to be used in the main- tainance of scholarship for de- serving girls.
 President Babcock, though having no fears about the money being tainted, was not certain he. had any legal right to accept the gift and laid the matter before, the attorney general who has row decided that he may legally retain it.-Douglas Dispatch.

BERT ALV0RD TURNED
 LOOSE
Federal Authorities Not Aware of His Release until He
 Had Hid Out

Somebody has made blunder and as a result Bert Alvord, the notorious outlaw, is a free man and Mexico mourns the loss of a desperado whom she yearned to punish for a series of crimes com. mitted within the borders ofthat republic while he was fugitive from justice of this territory.
 According to the data of the United States officers, the prison gate at Yuma was to have open ed for Alvord on Oct. 26, and a marshal was to take charge of and deliver him to the Mexican officials.
 Through some misunderstood ing, Alvord departed the peniten- tiary a free man on October 9, and thls was not generally known until he made his appearance in Los Angeles a few days later and submitted to an interview. and has made himself scarce since.
 Evidently, he knows of the longing the Mexican officials have for him; and he realizes that they are prepared to deliver him to Mother Earth.
