advancing. The japanese are already
in touch with Tie Pass.
The Russian forces evidently are con-
fused and exhausted and are possibly
short of food and ammunition. and it
is believed here that they will be un-
able to resist strong attack. Succeed
ing reports from the field increase the
extent OF the Russian disaster. and it
is believed that it will require months
TO resupply and reorganize the Russian
armies
1t is estimated that the Russian cas-
ualties and captfves will reach 40 per
cent. of the number engaged in the re-
cent lighting. Their artillery losses es-
pecially are heavy. The numerous
stores and munitions of war captured
are valued at millions Of dollars. The
RUSSIAN loss materially adds to the
Gripping of their armies
The Japanese people are receiving
the details of their victory with calm
ness. Toxic and other cities are ex-
ceedlngly quiet. A recent admonition
TO refrain from spending money in
celebrations and devote it to savings
and war charities is being generally
followed
NO PEACE TERMS TO OFFER.
The press and leading men. discus
sing the possible effect Of the recent
Victory upon peace, declare that Japan
Will continue vigorous prosecution OF
the war and that she has no sugges-
tion to make to Russia, either directly
or indirectly.
In the general elation over success,
the Japanese find a special source of
satisfaction in the celebrity In flanking
operations, the quick seizure of advan-
tages and the speed in pursuit mani
tested by their armies. After last
summers campaign there was a gen.
eral admission Of the truth in the re-
peated criticisms that the japanese
troops failed In those respects, and
there was a general avoval of a de-
termination to redeem these faults
during future operations.
Against the Russian left a portion OF
the Fifth army marched forty miles in
one day, greatly aiding In the achieve
ment of victory.
The captives taken in the recent bat
tie will make the total Russian pris-
oners taken during the war $4,000, and
the care of these prisoners is becoming
large and expensive problem for the
japanese Government. Plans are be-
ing considered to establish military
prisons on the islands of the inland sea
TO remove all the prisoners to them.

two key experts accompanied the party

WAIT FOR CABLE MESSAGE.
Up to an early hour this morning the
local police authorities had not received
the long looked for cable message from
Detective Reynolds in Honolulu. Why
he has not reported TO his chief as he
was instructed to as Socn is he had
personally satisfied himself that Mrs.
Stanford's death was due to poison is a
mystery. Although the press dispatches
from Honolulu early last night posi-
lively stated that all the officials in
Honolulu and the friends of the late
Mrs. Stanford who are now there, and
who have conferred at length with De-
tectives Reynolds and Callundan, sent
thither to thoroughly investigate the
death, are now agreed that Mrs. Stan
ford was poisoned with strychnine,
Captain Burnett has not yet been so
advised by his representative and is
impatiently wondering why the detec
tive does not enlighten him as to the
condition of affairs there.
The silence in Honolulu arouses the
suspicion in the mind of Captain Bur-
nett that Reynolds and Callundan are
gathering together important facts that
they will not reveal until they feel safe
in sending them over a cable.

PLANS A GLASS BUILDING.
II Is to Be Built in Classic Design
for National Bank of
Des Moines.

Des Moines, lac T., Eastman has
submitted plans to the officials Of the
Des Moines national bank for bank
building OF classic design to be built
of glass, after his new plan of glass
construction. The building. IL con-
structed. would be most unique, and
would be especially attractive with its
heavy columns ofwire glass. The build
Ing would front on Walnut street and
extend along Sixth street for half q
block.
Mr.. Eastman's scheme Of glass con-
struction has provoked much comment
throughout the country. some Of It most
encouraging. The general plan fol-
lows:
II consists OF steel framework. sup

beams of the floor, In duplicate, maxi
ing two walls OF opalescent wire glass.
the glass being set in the steel frame
work.
The glass walls are approximately a
foot apart. making an insulating dead
air space TO prevent loss OF heat In win
ter and to prevent undue heat In sum-
mer
This system OF construction allows Of
any arrangement of floor plan. because
windows are unnecessary; and for the
same reason the exterior will admit
of any style OF treatment entirely free
of the restrictions of fenestration.
Mr. Eastman believes windows TO be
an insurmountable evil in buildings be-
cause of the admission OF air through
them, which is responsible for the dust,
smoke, doors. insects, leakage Of heat.
danger of falling out, admission of rain,
not to mention the danger and neces-
sity Of washing them, loss OF papers,
colds from draughts, etc.
The wall is fire resisting to practical
degree, as II has been demonstrated
that wire glass will resist a hot fire
and, though necessary to replace It, the
fire damage would be local and easily re-
placed
The inside treatment allows OF a
marble wainscoting halfway to the
ceiling with glass over so that the wall
space is available for desks, counters,
shelving. etc, on ell sides OF room.

The inner construction Of the build

New York.-By its annual report, just

on the triviality of the causes producing
tragic results and otherwise during the
year ending December /, 1904. says the
Herald, Of this city.
Never before" says the committee,
have little things played so prominent
a part In the important affairs as this
year. A very careful investigation Into
almost numberless cases has shown that
instead Of the great passions, love and
hate. this year petty things have held
the center of the stage"

happenings do not necessarily come un-
Ter the title of unexpected, yet they
have thrown this investigation In al
good measure, so to speak.
The number OF homicides that have
been caused by such petty things as cold
coffee, burned beefsteak and pies such
as mother never could have made are
only surpassed by the number they
might have caused" says the commit
