Japaneses PRESSING Russians.

st. Petersburg, May 8.-Interest is
once more directed to Manchuria, the
news from the front indicating that
Field Marshal Oyama Is pressing Gen
eral Linevitch's advance posts east
and west of the railroad offensive
movement. The Russians are Offering
slight resistance and are falling back
upon their first line of defense.
The Russian advance post covers a
front of about 100 miles, extending
from Singtmantsu on the Liao river
in the southeasterly direction, across
the railroad above Changtu, to the
Mandarin road, leading to Kirwin, to
Kamal pass, about 10 miles due east
Of Tie Pass. The Russian cavalry
protect both wings, small bodies be
ing probably beyond the Liao ring in
Mongolia, to guard against a surprise
turning movement in that direction
Experts believe, however, that Oya.
mas purpose is to thrust in front the
east, turn Kirin and interpose him
self between Hardin and Vladivostok
preparatory to the investment of the
latter place. Linevitch's disposition
seems especially taken to meet such
a plan.

at first asked for similar order
and then opposed it. Judge Foster took
the matter under advisement.
Lawyer Abraham Levy of Miss Pat
terson's counsel, received a letter
which had been sent in the mail tC
Mrs. J. B. Patterson, Nan Patterson
mother in Washington, D. c., in which
Miss Patterson's life was threatened
The letter says in part:
Il am sorry to cause you some pain
but you will not see Nan. Although
She cheated justice Of the law, she has
more to deal with, and she will never
go far away from the Tombs. l am
the victim of another, a woman, as
your daughter, and not only has my
money gone, but I am slowly dying.
Wednesday night if the jury had ac-
quilted Nan l could have shot her as
she left the Tombs. If she was con
Victed, could have committed suicide
as | have wished to for the last ten
months. But my name will be famous
yet as a lover of justice. The Ameri-
can people shall know that one man
had the courage to avenge Young's
murder. I write this so you will know
that am in no way connected with
Young's friend. Yours in death, Ar
meddi Beaupartar."
Lawyer Levy said that if the letter
had not been written by a crank he
would regard it as important. He
added that it evidently was written by
man who knew the name of Ma
PattersOns father who has been
known throughout the trial as 81

is John Bartlett Patterson.

British Press criticises France.

ed. An official said:
'It is universally known that the
Japanese intelligence department is
exceptionally efficient. Therefore, If
various specific breeches of netral-
ity really exist the Japanese govern
ment would have presented specific
charges to the French government So
far, however, Japan's official action
has been confined to requesting France
to exercise strict neutrality.
"She has not made any specific
charges nor have any specific acts OF
violation of neutrality yet been
brought to our attention. The japanese
government asked in an amicable spir-
it that we observe neutrality and we
answered that we had done and are do
ing everything possible to that end
The reports to the contrary we be
lieve to be Misrepresentation"

Chicago, May S.-Today, the thirty
first day of the teamsters' strike found
both sides prepared for an even more
intense struggle during the week to
come-the week in which President
Roosevelt is to visit Chicago.
The committee, composed of Prof.
Graham Taylor, Towner X. Webster
and William G.. Boyden, appointed by
Mayor Dunno to investigate charges
of graft and blackmail on the part of
union leaders and of efforts to incite
trouble on the part of the employers,
has made detailed plans for beginning
the inquiry
The merchants have made plans for
more strenuous efforts to bring the re-
calcitrant team owners into line, and
the Federation of Labor, on the other
hand, has resolved to seek the in6Ict-
ment of the officials of the Employers
association for this effort, calling it
conspiracy.
The strike committee, which was to
begin work this afternoon power Of
subpoena, and all the information it
gets will of necessarily be volunteered.
The union leaders declare they will
submit volumes of testimony bearing
on the charges that the employers
have fostered the war by aiming to
extend the strike through score of
trades.
On the other hand the employers
are not enthusiastic over the project,
seeing no good that is likely to come
out of it, though Chairman Taylor was
assured the merchants would do noth-1
ing to block the inquiry.
Little trouble was reported at an.
of the employers company barns.
Unlike the corresponding time last
week, few persons were about thej
stables. Even the Peabody Coal CON-
pany, against which there has beeni
special fight, sent out today cara J
vans of loaded coal wagons without
molestation. Police and deputy sher-I
ifs, however, continued to guard all
or nearly all vehicles driven by non-V
union teamsters.
