JAP COMMANDER PREPARED TO
ASSUME THE OFFENSIVE ON
A LARGE SCALE.
PRELUDE TO ANOTHER BIG BATTLE
ADVANCE DIVISIONS OF MlKA.
DOS FORCES IN CONTACT
WITH RUSSIANS.

Fenghushshieng, Mapchuria, May S.
Field Marshal Oyama seems ready
to assume the offensive on a large
scale and activity already has begun
against General Linevitch's left. This
may be the prelude to another general
battle. The Japanese have concen-
trated heavy columns on the Lao river
and their advance divisions have been
in contact with the Russians, who are
holding the main road from Fakoman
TO Bashienchen.
On Thursday the japanese cavalry
suddenly attacked a Cossack division
in overwhelming force, compelling the
latter to retire. Then, supported by in
fantry, the Japanese advanced and
drove the Russian infantry out OF the
village of Palitoun.
A Russian reconnoitering party
twenty miles further west fell into an
ambush and all except five were killed.

APPEAR OFF HOkkAlDO.
Vessels of vladivostok Fleet Burn
Small Sailing Craft.

Toxic, May 8.-Four Russian tor
pedo boat destroyers from Vladivostok
have appeared westward of Hokkaido.
They seized and burned small sail
ing vessel and imprisoned the captain
and disappeared to the northwest.
They were evidently returning to
Vladivostok. There is possibility
that they have destroyed other small
craft, although no reports to that ef-
feet have been received.
The object of their visit is not clear.
1t is thought that probably they hoped
to torpedo the Japanese patrol at
night and it is also suggested that the
vladivostok vessels plan a diversion
to assist the feet of Admiral Rojest-
vensky.
Although none has been sighted 1t
is believed the larger vessels OF the
Vladivostok squadron accompanied the
torpedo boats. 1t Is doubted that the
torpedo boats would venture across
unescorted in the heavy sea which
was running when they burned the
sailing vessel.
All the crew of this vessel except
the captain, who was captured, sue
ceeded in landing, but steamer dis
patched to the rescue OF the burning
derelict was forced to return on ac-
count of the storm. The Russians
poured kerosene ON the deck of the
sailing vessel and withdrew after hav-
ing ignited the surface of the oil.

NINETEEN HUNDRED MEN OUT.
Actions of Four Laborers Cause Of Ex-

workmen have been thfowl out OF en-

Taylor street where q model cooper
atiVe Industrial establishment covering
a large area is being built at cost OF
several million dollars. NGI.l on the
buildings is practically at a stand
still.
a remarkable feature of the strike
is the fact that the officials OF the
unions to which the men belong are
strongly against the walkout and most
of them will demand that the entire
force return to work CT face trial
boards.
According to the best Incarnation
obtainable four men for two days
mingled with other laborers ordering
them to quit work. The reason as
signed was that the well diggers Or
caisson workers were being paid but
As cents an hour, whereas il was said
the price should be so cents.
The management refused to pay the
extra 8 cents and the quartette is said
to have urged general walkout ON the
part of the laborers, the other union
workmen having to quit of necessity.

She told of ride she took with DR..

and got out to hunt along the road.
The horses became frightened and
started to run away, but Koch stopped
them When the doctor visited her

a scratch on his hand.
Miss Fitzpatrick said Koch called on
her the night of the murder and left
