GOVERNOR ODELL'S
HASTY PARTURE
FROM ALBANY CAUSES CONSIDER.
ABLE COMMENT.
He Feels keenly Attacks Made on
Him-May Resign State
Championship. S''''

Albany, N. Y. Jan. 2.-Former
Governor Odell departed from Albany
so hastily after the Inauguration cere-
monies today that he disappointed
many of his friends who desired to
consult with him. He saw Governor
Higgins for about five minutes before
the Inauguration, and he. did not
wait to attend the reception which
Senator Depew is giving in the Ten
Eyck hotel. Mr.. Odell feels very keen
ly the bitter attacks of the friends Of
Frank S. Black, and especially those
of Senator Bracket of Saratoga and
Cornelius " Collins of Rensselaer,,
state superintendent of prisons ~
II has been customary for the chair
man of the state committee TO spend
much time in Albany during the iegis4
latiye session, directing the scourse of
legislation. Mr.. Odell was asked be-
fore his departure voday whether he
would come back after the legislature
had been organized. @ ~
mo; I shall not" he replied, re-
peating his answer so as to give it em-
phasis. This reply has puzzled the
Republican leaders here and some OF
them believe that Mr.. Odell is prepar-
ing to retire from the chairmanship OF
the state committee. One Of the lead

THE RESUMPTION
OF sHOSTlLIT|ES
NEAR MukDEN is ANNOUNCED BY
RUSSIANS. ,at
Advices from ST. Petersburg Report
Retreat of Japanese-Proposed
Winter Campaign.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 3,-Dispatches
port the resumption of hostilities on a
large scale. The initiative was taken
by the Japanese, their center army,
under General Oku, massing north of
Shahopu and advancing to the attack
in wedge-shaped formation. Mean
while the left flank of the Japanese
right, stationed between Kwangshan
and Bentsfaputze. drew closer to the
right wing of the center army, pro-
tecting the positions which had be-
come exposed through the advance.
The japanese movement was met
with a furious counter attack by the
Russian center. Several of the
trenches and recently fortified posi-
tons south of Paitapu were abandoned
and number of Japanese detach-
ments fell into the trap. Many were
killed in the entanglements and their
comrades fell back, giving the signal
for general Japanese retreat.
The Russians thereupon re-occupied
their erstwhile positions adding to
them number of minor fortified
places which the enemy was compelled
to abandon
The opinion prevails here that the
Manchurian army will begin with the
execution of the plans for the winter
campaign which have recently been
submitted by General Kuropatkin to
the general staff. Reliable reports
place the number of Russian soldiers
now at the front at 100000 and while
Field Marshal. the Marquis Oyamas
army is not quite as large the surren-
der of Port Arthur and the conse-
quent opening up of the roads into
northern Manchuria by way Of the
stronghold, will enable him to add to
his forces in the near future. The gem
eral staff is therefore of the opinion
that General Kuropatkin, following his
advantage lover the japanese center,
will force the Japanese to the south.
According to the opinion of military
experts the Russian left wing will
soon be heard from. The Japanese
right army, opposing it, has made
progress by small stages within range
of Fansheng and the latest advices re-
port General Rennenkampffs Cossacks
engaged in checking the enemy's ad-
vance in this direction by scattering
his forces.

Chicago, Jan. 2.-The fast train from

PLANES avenue, and several persons
were painfully injured.
The engineer claims not to have
seen the stop signal, but the conductor
who was looking ahead from the step

pulled the bell. This, however, was
too late.

days. Dick is backing Governor Her.

taking advantage of the opposition to
Herrick among the temperance people
to build up state organization of his
own. Lieutenant Governor Warren G.
Harding, of Marion. is Eoraker's can
didate for governor. Harding has not
yet consented to make the race. but
he admitted today that he was almost
persuaded. ff3 .aN saso
81 am receiving as many as 40 letters

said Harding. "They come from all
inent representatives of all the var
ious factions and elements Of the Re
publican party.
81 have said that l am not candi-
date, at least not in the sense OF seek
ing the nomination, but / have made
the confession that am ambitious to

tising the strength OF the combined
opposition against him. Up to that
time the idea prevailed in many quar-
ters that the Anti-Saloon league was
the only organized interest opposing
his nomination, but since the issu-
ance of that statement, activities on
the part of these combined interests
have begun with renewed energy, and
will no doubt continue until victory
crowns their efforts.
A CLEVELAND STORY.
The situation as viewed from a
Cleveland standpoint is given by the
following from the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, which indicates that Harding
will accept IL the nomination is ten,
dered him:
The name of Warren G. Harding, at
present lieutenant governor of Ohio,
will be presented to the next state
Republican convention as candidate
for GOVERNOR This is the positive
statement of friends of Mr. Harding
and of the anti-Herrick Republicans
who have joined hands in a fight al
ready actively started to effect the re.
tirement fGovernor Herrick at the
conclusion of his present term.
Some months ago the plan of start
ing quiet work on behalf of Harding
in every section of the state was put
into operation. That the work done
in this quiet manner is having it's eff
feet is shown by the fact that 1t Is
promised that within the next three
weeks the underground tactics will
be superseded by the open indorse.
ment of Harding and at the same
time open opposition to the re-nomt-
nation of Governor Herrick.
From that time until the assembling
of the state convention it is also
promised that the tight will be waged
at the hottest kind of a pace.
The men who are working the busi-
ness end of the Harding boom under
stand that the lieutenant governor is
not as yet an active candidate, but
they also understand that he will not
refuse to listen to any call ON the part
of the Republican party.
Mr.. Harding has all along refused to
discuss the gubernatorial proposition.
Last night in connection with per.
sistent report that a public boom for
him was to be launched this week, Mr..
Harding was communicated with over
the long distance telephone at his
home in Marion.
idSl am not a candidate for COVER
nor and never have been, but am like
anybody else. would not refuse the
nomination if called upon by my par
tyi" said Mr.. Harding.
-rsFriends who may be working for
my nomination Know my position in
the matter, they know ] am not can
didate and that personally | will not
make any active canvass for the nomi.
nation"
The position taken by the lieutenant
governor is just what his friends want
| for the present. In the near future the
statement is made that the show of
things will force him to make an ac-
tive and open campaign"
In the face of the statement from
Senator Dick to the effect that Gov.
ernor Herrick will be re-nominated
without opposition, correspondence
among influential Republicans relative
to quiet work ON behalf of Harding is
| increasing A dozen letters were re-
ceived by Cleveland Republicans the
latter part of last week. AS suggest.

Unfortunate for the czar.

London, Jan. 3. = In an editorial
article the London Daily News says
that 1t is unfortunate for the czar that
his refusal to grant constitution to
his people should coincide with the
fall of Port Arthur. The two events
will inevitably be connected and the
loss of the Pacific fortress will by
many be accepted az the final proof
of the failure of absolutism.
