ATTACK HAS FAILED
RUSSIANS MEET WITH REPuLsE
Battle Still Continues, With e5,ooo
Russian Troops Massed on
Iapanese Left.

Toxic, Jan. 30. l 80 p. m.-The Rus
SLAMS are massing about G5,000 troops
on the Japanese left and bombardinG
the left flank and center. Small forces
of Russians are attacking all along the
line.
Manchurian headquarters of the Jap.
anese army report that on Saturday
the Russians occasionally bombarded
the right and center armies, following
up the bombardment with attacks
which the Japanese repulsed. In the
direction of the left wing Japanese
detachment were victors at Chenchieh-
pao and occupied Liutiako and Lichia-
wopeng on Saturday, the Russians re-
treating north and west.
The Japanese occupied with infantry
position southwest of Heikoutai on
Saturday, and are now assaulting the
main position.
Another detachment dislodged n
regiment of infantry, brigade of cav
airy and twelve guns occupying Haerh-
pao, five miles south of Heikoutai.
The Russian strength opposing the
Japanese left flank Is roughly esti-
mated at eight corps, consisting of the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth infantry di-
visions. the Second and Fifth brigades
of European rifles, the Ninth infantry
division of the Tenth corps. part of the
Sixty-first infantry. part of the First
Siberian corps and the First and Ninth
brigades of rifles.
A dispatch from General Kuroki's
headquarters. via Fusan, says that the
Russian attempt TO turn the Japanese
left has resulted in a complete failure.
The Russians chose the worst weather
of the season. depending perhaps upon
their familiarity with a snowy country,
to aid them in their operations.
Their artillery attacks on the Japa-
nese permanent linewere, 1t is thought,
a demonstration to prevent the with
drawal of forces for the purpose of re-
inforcing the japanese left.

STEPHEN EfGHT-HoUR BILL
Passes Second Reading House Of Rep
resentatives.

Denver. Jan. 29.-The Stephen
eight-hOur bill passed second reading
in the House of Representatives yes
terday morning. the opposition
evinced being weak. Mr.. Garcia of
Conejos led the opposition. but had so
little support that his efforts went for
naught.
Mr.. Bromley spoke against the gen
eral provisions of the bill. but when
1t came to the test of n vote. decided
to go with the majority and vote for
the bill Just as 1t passed the House
two years ago and was introduced in
the present Assembly by Mr. Stephen.
The House refused to give considera-
tion to any amendments. voting them
all down without ceremony.
Rather than risk any amendments.
and taking the word of Mr.. Stephen
that the bill had been drawn carefully
to cover every possible legal point. the
House adopted 1t Just as introduced.
Loud cheering greeted the final action
in committee of the whole. The vic
tory was considered a personal one for
Mr.. Stephen, who had labored earn
estly through all the days of the ses-
sion up to the present to secure hear
ing for his measure. His campaign in
its behalf had been managed in an en-
ceptionally able manner.

South From Durango.

Denver. Jan. 27.-The Republican
this morning says: Sixty miles OF
railroad are to be constructed by the
Denver & Rio Grande through one OF
the richest portions of Colorado and
New Mexico now without railway IA
cilities. The line is to run from Du'
range, Colorado. to Pennington. New
Mexico, and construction work will
begin at once. This was decided upon
at a meeting of the directors of the
road held in New York on Wednes-
day. This is said to be only the pre-
liminary work of opening up the rich
territory now lying idle in that sec
tion. Before very long it is expected
that the road will be continued on
through a very rich agricultural sec
tion which awaits railroad communica
tion. That the country to be tapped
lis valuable is shown by the fact that
several corporations have already
planned to build railroads in the dis
trict. notably the Phelps Dodge syndi
cate. The Denver < Rio Grande ex'
poets to be first in the field.
Several lines have made preliminary
surveys from Durango south. but moth
ing definite was decided upon. Now
the Denver & Rio Grande has stepped
in and will build at once. Preliminary
surveys have been made but the exact
route has not been selected.

Contest for Governorship.

Denver, Jan. 29.-The probable
course of the contest of Peabody VS.

direct evidence probably tomorrow.
Counsel for Governor Adams will then

Here is a new definition of seri-
ons phrase which. though perhaps not
strictly scholarly in tone, will doubt
lcss make strong appeal. Mr.. NAL
colin Ford was recently obliged to call
in an expert electrician to advise him
in building operation. AS IT proved.
the man could tell nothing about tho
profession he tMr. Ford) did not al
ready know. His fee. however. was

ence that Mr.. Ford conceived the fol-
lowing definition:

Cold Interrupts Battle.

General Kuroki's Headquarters, Jan.
27, via Fusan-Regular Manchurian
weather prevails tonight. intense cold
with cutting winds and swirls of snow.
Sounds of battle We're heard at inter
walls along the entire front this morn
ing. The Russian artillery was feeling
the whole Japanese line. 1t is uncer-
tain whether this will bring on a gen.
eral engagement or not. The clouds
and snow made it impossible to see
more than a few hundred feet away.
The Russian gunnery fire was largely
guess work. Early this afternoon the
firing stopped.
If the Russian operations were pre-
liminary to general attack, as ap-
pears possible, their plans were frus-
trated by the storm and fog. They
could not have chosen 4 worse time.

DEATH OF JULES VERNE
Famous Author Passes Away After
Stroke of PARALYSIS

Amiens, France, March 25.-Jules
Verne is dead. He had been helpless
since he was stricken with paralysis
several days ago.
NJ. Verne had been subject to chronic
diabetes, but II did not assume a crit
ical aspect until March 10. Since then
he gradually failed. and the end was
fastened by a stroke of paralysis COW
ering his right side until his tongue
was affected. The sick man retained
consciousness until shortly before his
death, his brain being the last organ
to fail. He calmly foresaw death, called
the members of his family to his bed
side and discussed his departure. The
publisher of NJ. Verne's works was
among those who were admitted to his
bedside during his last hours, but NJ.
Verne did not recognize him.
Following the announcement OF VI.
Verne's death kilograms were received
from many quarters, including distin-
guished authors.
