INVOLUNTARY MANsLAUGHTER.
Manager of Iroquois Theatre Indicted
BY Grand Jury.

Chicago March 5. - indictments
against Will j. Davis, formerly resi-
dent manager OF the lroquois theatre:
William Laughln, deputy building in
spector of Chicago, and George Viii
llams, city buliulng commissioner,
were returned yesterday in Judge Nc
Ewen's court, and capiases were imme-
diately ordered issued. The true
bills" voted are based on the testi-
mony given by persons who witnessed
the theatre fire which resulted in the
loss of nearly 600 lives.
Evidence was also presented by
States Attorney Healy against Messrs-
Klaw and Erlanger, owners of "Mr-
Bluebeard, Jr."; Harry Powers, part
owner of the Inflated theatre; James
e. Cummings, stage manager; Thomas
A. Noonan, treasurer, and Harry Sail
ers, a city fireman Fgno was detailed
at the theatre, bat in their cases the
grand jury refused to indict on the evil
dence submitted.
The indictment against Davis
charges involuntary manslaughter.
The other men are charged with meg
lect of duty. In general the indict-
ments against Davis, Laughlin and
Williams are similar to those drawn
up by another grand jury, but all the
immaterial points passed upon by
Judge Kersten and Judge Green have
been eliminated

Awful Carnaqe,

ST. Ptersburg, March 4, 5 p. M
The battle raging at the front has as
sumed enormous proportions. Already
one of the Associated Press Russian
correspondents places the Russian
losses at 10000 men and those of the
Japanese at 10000.
One of General Kuropatkins staff
officers said to the Associated Press
correspondent: "Oyama's strategy is
to break the center and then inclose
the wings and compel demoralized
retreat, but until now the Japanese
attacks against the center have BEEN
only measurably successful.
"Sanlinpou, which is the key to our
position on the right, was the scene
of awful carnage last night. The jap
anese concentrated on it the fire OF
over 100 guns and then attacked with
the bayonet. According to the reports
coming in they were repulsed and in q
counter attack captured seven ma
chine guns"

General Wilson at Head.

Generul John Wilson Oh the army,

sioner West, and the inaugural COM
mittee of rs citizens, with Lieutenant
General Chaffee at the head of it's mil
itary affairs and Z. G. Glover respon-
sible for it's finances. These perfected
and carried through an Inauguration
which for variety of detail, complete
ness of every part and splendor of the
whole stands without rival among it's
notable predecessors.
1t was the first national Inaugural
ton since the civil war. The south
sent up it's warriors and it's state of
ticials. Men who fought each other
for years under different flags; men
who fought together in the war with
Spain under one flag; executive off,

The whole city was a garden bios

the line of march artistically decorat-

but no street in the city was without

suggestion from the inaugural commit

quested its 10000 school children to
see that each one of their homes dis

Everything Harmonious.
A committee on street decorations,

artistic taste and transformed two
miles and half of the city's noted
avenue into a fitting highway for the

bodies to march as an escort to its

not black with people banked high
above the pavement, crowding all win

is impossible to form anything like 4
correct estimate as to the respective
losses, though it is believed that the
Russians have suffered casualties in
ne neighborhood of 100000 probably
more, as at this time, it is reported
that Kuropatkin's right wing has been
turned and is in pellmel retreat. The
Russian left is holding it's own, accord
ing to the latest reports, but cannot
last long, it is believed, with the sup
port of the right gone and the rain OF
japanese shells constantly pouring
upon them, The Jap casualties, judg-
ing from reports of wounded, amount
to about 10000, which number, how
ever, is considered small in view OF
the immensity of the movement
