A Menace to Peace.

LONDON, May 3O-There is only one opinion in diplomatic circles of Russia's action in enlarging her field of operations to Mongolia. It is off cially announced at St. Petersburg that by a special treaty arranged with China, Russian troops will cross the frontier into Mongolia in order to pre- vent the Japanese fanking movement to the west. This is regarded as the gravest menace to the general peace that has arisen since the war began.
 Taken in connection with the devel- opments in St. Petersburg in the last few days, it is interpreted as the de- iberate intention of those in control of Russia's policy to cover her defeat by embroiling the other powers. Such certainly has been the desire of i'm portant leaders of the Russian reaction ists since the recognized helplessness of Russian arms. Count Lamsdorff, however, succeeded in gaining the Czar's support in his pacific attitude
 and the militant party failed for the time being in their nefarious de- signs.

CLOSE SALOONS ID GO ID THE
 POLLS

LOS ANGELES, May 30-If the plans of the leading saloon keepers are carried out next Friday, the day of the "no saloon" election will be exceedingly dry. A plan is being fos- tered to close all the saloons on Thurs day evening at o'clock, five hours in advance of the usual hour, and to keep them shut until the polls are closed Friday night. Several owners of the larger places have subscribed to the program. They are trying to con vince their fellows, the owners of the small places below the "dead line," that such a move would be to their ad- vantage.
 The reasons are two-fold. Every saloon man will be needed at the polls. So will all the paid workers. To close the saloons would add to their forces an army of at least 500 ardent work CTS. More than that, it would elimi- nate any possibility of any of the paid workers from becoming hors de combat through too strong fiirtations over the mahogany. It would also cut out any display of drunkenness on the streets on the eve of election.

FUR A LAMP COSTS
 LIFE

SAN FRANCISCO, May 30-Death was merciful to Jennie Caldagarie, the pretty bride who passed away in terrible agony yesterday noon, after having been frightfully burned late on the previous day.
 The young woman's suffering was so intense, her body so horribly roasted and eharred, none could wish to see her live longer, while no hope of reeov- cry existed.
 The little flat where Mrs. Caldegarie met with the fatal accident, had been occupied by the bridal couple only few weeks before. From parlor to kitchen it is furnished costly and taste fully. Caldagarie took particular care to install beautiful gas fixtures.
 But Mrs. Caldagarie would not use the gas. She preferred a lamp, and that preference in her case proved fa- tai. With all her suffering the young woman remained conscious to the last. She was therefore able to tell what had happened.
 She sat alone Friday night reading a newspaper. She read until about II o'clock in the parlor beside table on which sat lamp. Then sAs fell

RIzoNA, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3I. 1905.

serts that Madame Rojestvensky, the wife of the commander of the Russian fleet, received telegram from Vlad- ivostok signed by her husband, saying that he arrived there on the cruiser Almaz and was severely wounded in the neck, back and abdomen.
 Japanese Also Suffered.
 VLADIvOSTOK, May 30 - The Russian protected cruiser Alman, and the torpedo boat destroyer Grozny, have arrived here. The officers of these vessels report that during the naval battle two Japanese battle ships were sunk, and two Japanese cruisers were dangerously listed head down when last sighted by the officers dur ing the battle Saturday afternoon.
 A heavy fog then dropped, and pre- vented them seeing more of the result.
 The Grozny Made Record.
 vLADIvOSTOK, May 3O-The AL mag bears the scars of battle. The missenmast is shot away, and one of the smoke stacks is pierced by a cannon ball.
 The Grozny, although engaged for several hours in a running fight at short range with long Japanese de stroyer, shows no signs of the fray. Af- ter her commander, Captain Andriff-s ski was wounded, and an officer and three men killed, she succeeded in sinking her opponent by lueky-plaeed shot,
 They say that the Russian fleet was in sad plight when they last saw them. Several of the battle ships and cruisers were destroyed, and the tor pedo boats were clinging around while the other disabled crippled ships were like angered wasps darting in again and out again to discharge their fire.
 Nearly Annihilated.
 TOKYO, May 30-Admiral Togo has wired to Yamomoto, minister of the navy, that the "Main force of the Rus sian second and third fleets is nearly annihilated. Please feel assured of it."

No Thought of Peace.

WASHINGTON, May 30-"Until some word of peace comes out from Tsarko Seloe, Nippon has but fight on.'
 This epigrammatic remark of M. Takahira, the Japanese minister, was made tonight with the details of the Japanese victory before him. It ac- curately sets forth not only his opi- nion but that of Washington and other neutral governments regarding the effect of the battle on Russia 's pol icy.
 Count Cassini, the Russian ambas- sador. in a conversation with the cor respondent of the Associated Press, strongly discouraged any hopes of peace.
