STORY OF GREATEST
OF H|STORY'S BATTLES
Francis McC ullagh's Tale of
Mukden to be Printed
Next Sunday
WILL MAKE SENSATION

The battle OF Mukden, fought in Man
churia in March of this year, was the
greatest conflict in the history of the
world. There were engaged in it over
1000 600 men, and the Russian army fled
like a crazy mob, helpless before the
pursuing and victorious japanese. The
Russians lost 200, 900 men.
The only history yet published of this
great combat has just been written. 1t
is told by Francis McCullagh, a corre-
spondent, who went into the battle with
the Russian forces, and was captured
during the fight by the Japanese.
Mr.. McCullagh Vas an eyewitness OF
the battle from both sides, and, knowing
the story, knows how to tell it. He has
written it all all graphically, as only an
eyewitness can. He has not gone into
the labored work of the military expert,
but tells his story for the man who wants
to read it in good clear English, letting
the horrible facts themselves stand out
to adorn it and point it's great moral.
Mr.. McCullagh's history has been Sc
cured for publication in Pennsylvania by
| the Philadelphia North American. 1t
will be published in two instalments, and
the first instalment of eight pages will
appear as a special supplement added to
the Sunday issue of the paper for July 2.
It will be. completed on July 8.
The newspaper reader who is watching
the course of peace negotiations initiated
by President Roosevelt will be able, after
reading Mr.. McCullagh's story, to see the
necessity for a cessation of hostilities in
the East, for the stopping of the dumb
slaughter of drunken Russians driven by
incompetent officers.
OF revelations there are scores in Mr.
McCullagh's history. He saw what tn,
papers have never printed and has pu
into concrete form all of the scattered bit
of stories that were published. Withou
doubt, Mr.. McCullagh's account of thi
battle is the one to which the future will
look as the one true historical account O
this struggle Of giant armies.

A County Asylum

In response to the invitation OF VIM.
j. Casper, President of the Alrishouse
Trustees, the County Freeholders paid a
visit to the County A~lmshouse, which is
located midway between Salem and
W~oodstown, last Thursday. 1t was the
first time in years that the almshouse
had been visited by the Board and con-
ditions in the Insane Ward were found to
be even worse than reported.
Twenty five insane patients were found
huddled in one small room, divided into
20 narrow cells, and poorly ventilated.
A narrow aisle between the cells furnish
es the only place for daily exercise. One
woman, about 80 years old, was found
who had been confined to one of these
cells for over a year, and who has had
little, if any, exercise in that time.
DIR. John Ward, Superintendent of the
State Asylum, has expressed his dissatis-
faction with the condition and treatment
OF the county patients, claiming that the
law is not being complied with, in that
both the male and female patients are
kept in close proximity, and that ever
the law of humanity is disregarded, and
that some steps must be taken by the
county to remedy the difficulty, or the
place will be condemned.
President Casper, of the Almshouse
Board, proposes that the county erect an
asylum similar to those of Cumberland
n Atlantic Counties, and bring home
the patients from this county now at the
State Hospital for the Insane at Trenton.
The county is now paying about $4,000 a
year for the maintenance of these patients.
10 keep all the patients in this county
would cost about about $40, 1000, of which
the State would pay S $4,000, leaving a bal
ance Of $4,000. Adding to this latter sum
$1,000 interest on a $40, 600 county hospi-
tai would make the total coat to the
county $4,000. The county already has
an ideal site for a hospital on the county
farm, and judging by the views of the
Freeholders, they are unanimously in
favor of President Casper's scheme.

Ramsey Removed.

Joseph Ramsey was yesterday re-
moved from the presidency of the Wa
bash Railroad Company at a special
meeting of the board of directors held in
New York. F. A. Delano was elected
as his successor. Eight directors, in
Guiding Mr.. Ramsey, were present at the
meeting.
Mr.. Ramsey has been engaged in
contest with Mr.. Gould for the control oi
the road. Mr.. Ramsey, after the meet
ing said his removal was entirely illeg-
al for the reason that the meeting had
not been properly called. He made a
protest before the board, saying that the
bylaws required five days notice Tor a
special meeting Of the board, and that
the notices for this meeting were mailed
only Wednesday night. His protest was
overruled, however. President Delano
took charge of his Office at once. "Mr.
Ramsey and l have always been friends
hitherto in the railroad business, "
said he. "and | do not want to come In
to this controversy in any way. AS Ia
Mr.. Ramsey's charge about the liiegaii'y
of the meeting, I}Ican say nothing; am
not lawyer. But there were several
good lawyers on the board at the meeting
and presume that they would not at
tempt anything illegal. 1t was the gen
eral understanding that this was an ad
iourned meeting"
When shawn the dispatch from New
York regarding the removal OF JosePi
Ramsey, jr., from the presidency OF tn
Wabash Railway at the special meeting
of the directors in New York, f. W
Lehman, a St Louis attorney, represent
ing Mr.. Ramsey in the application re
Gently filed for writ of temporary IN
junction against the eholding of meeting
IN Toledo, October 10, said: "Thls i
certainly news to me. All | have to sa.
at this time is that the action in Nev
York yesterday will not in any way at
feet our action in st. Louis for an injunc
ton. We will proceed just as had beel
decided upon"

wanted to Burn Negro.

Men and women worked up into a
frenzy of excitement yesterday afternoon
clamored for the life of negro and
fought determinedly with squad OF
Philadelphia policemen to gain posses
sion of their prisoner. Bricks, stones
and clubs we're hurled at the officers and
scores of angry men made frantic efforts
to break through the police line in order
TO wreak vengeance on the prisoner,
who was accused of assaulting 4-year-
old girl.
The negro's name is Joseph Stanley.
He halls from Boston, but is employed
as cook on a steamship now at Phila-
delphia. Stanley came ashore yesterday
morning and at Second and spruce
streets approached several small chill
dren. He offered to buy them candy
and ice cream if they would accompany
him. One of the children, Marie
Schwartz, years old, said she would
20. and Stanley led her of. The other
children suspected all was not right and
told Marie's mother. =,
Mrs. Schwartz dropped her household
work at once and ran TO the place where
the negro aud the child were last seen
together, but they had disappeared. Un-
able to find them, the distracted moth
er went TO the Delaney street station
house and reported the matter to the po-
lice. Stanley was soon located by Police
man Frederick in an clubhouse at Second
and Spruce streets. The negro still had
the child in his possession. Frederick
locked them in and summoned the patrol
wagon. Before it arrived the crowd who
had Joined the mother in her search
learned of the capture and dashed upon
the scene.
Frederick stood guard over his prison.
er. but the men and women, who num-
bered hundreds, had been worked up in
10 frenzy at The horrible outrage and
demanded that he surrender Stanley to
them that they might kill him.
Frederick stood his ground, aud as
the crowd grew in numbers and their
frenzy increased he prepared TO defend
himself. The wagon arrived just as
concerted rush was made for him and
his brother officers were compelled to
fight their way to him. 10 the struggle
F:ederick's clothing was torn to shred'
and he was badly beaten. He fought
courageousIy and protected his prisoner
Someone cried: "Burn the niggerP'
The CRY was taken up and swelled TO
great roar. 1t was with the utmost diff
Guilty that Stanley was taken to the
Lolice station. Several times the crowd
assaulted the policemen, and was finally
cowed by pistol shots.
