New Methodist Church.

The finishing touches are now being
put on the new Methodist church, and as
soon as possible the carpet will be put
down and the pews put in. The moving
of the pipe organ from the old church
will be a big job and one that must be done
by an expert. The officials of the church
are now getting prices on the job of NOV
ing it and setting it up in the new church.
1t will likely be month yet before ser
vices will be held in the new church. As
soon as the use of the otd church is dis
continued, Mr.. Jno. 81. Cope, who bought
the building and lot, will have the house
torn down. he will use the material to
erect some cottages for rent on New
Bridge street.

The result Of the fortnight's fighting
south Of Mukden is the worst disaster

SHE MAY REPAIR AT MANILA.
United States Will Protect Blockade
Runner Carlisle from Japanese.

Washington, March Upon the
advice of the department of State, Sec
retary Taft has cabled to Governor Gen.
eral Wright at Manila permission for
the British steamer Carlisle to remain
in Manila harbor until she has made
necessary repairs to her machinery. In
adopting this attitude in anwser to the
appeal of the ships captain, the State
department has added new construc-
tion to international law relative to
rights Of belligerent ships in neutral
harbors.
The Carlisle is a British ship, but
she was chartered by the Russian gov
ernment and loaded with arms, ammu-
milton and food supplies for the Russian
garrison at Port Arthur. She sailed
from Vladivostok November 20 last,
but so effective was the Japanese block
ade that she was unable to reach Port
Arthur. While cruising outside the
blockade line, she lost her propeller.
In disabled condition she drifted into
the harbor of San Miguel, Luzon.
The captain and supercargo, the lat
ter a Russian, went to Manila and
sought protection for their ship. The
State department was consulted by ca
BILE and granted the request, so the Car
Isle is to wait at Manila, where she
could be more carefully watched. 1t
is probable that, as Japanese warships
are reported outside of Manila harbor,
she will be permitted after making re-
pairs to intern on the same conditions
as were imposed on in the case of the
Lena at San Francisco.

NEW YORK WILL BE PARALYzEo.
All Employees of Elevated and Subway
Roads on Strike.

New York, March 7.-The long
threatened strike OF the employees Of
the Interborough company, operating
the subway and the elevated railroads
of Manhattan, was determined on at a
meeting of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers and the Amalgamated
association Of Street and Electric rail-
way employees, held III Harlem tonight.
This action followed the receipt from
General Manager Hedley, of the Inter
borough company, tonight of a letter
declining to agree to the terms of the
amended demands of the representatives
Of the men at meeting held with the
officials Of the company today. The
strike has been ordered to be put into
full operation at 4 a. m. About 5000
employees of the subway and elevated
system are affected by the strike, which
will tie up all the traffic except surface
troliSy lines.
The utter impossibility of the multi
tude OF travellers in the upper part Of
the island reaching their places down
town tomorrow il one of the most ser.
ious features of the situation, and it il
feared will be the cause of much dis

improvement in the condition of traffic

so in the subway, in which express
service was established this evening and
affairs almost resumed their normal
aspect. On the elevated lines service
was more irregular, but continued to
improve. There was practically no
disorder, and only few minor acci-
dents occurred during the day.
Officials of the Interborough company
expressed confidence that they had the
situation we'll in hand and that a few
days would see full resumption of

This was positively denied by Presi-
dent Pepper, of the Amalgamated Asso-

are already In touch with one another
back OF Telling. This at once tells the
terrible peril which besets the Russian
commander and at the same time hints
at means which may prove his saliva
tion. The Importance Of this news lies
in the fact that 1t shows conclusively
that Kuroki, commanding the Japanese
right flank, has thrown his right wing
far TO the east and north OF Mukdep,
the storm center Of the present opera
tions, while Nogi, battle scasrei from
Port Arthur, has hurried his powerful
brigade Of veterans TO the west Of Muk-

Battle Bloodiest of War - Railroad is
Cut North Of Mukden.
Toxic, March 9.--The great battle in
Manchuria ragged all day yesterday
along the entire and enormous front.
The japanese were generally victorious,
and they drove the Russians from a
series Of important positions. BY
nightfall it seemed imperative that
General Kuropatkin would have tn
withdraw his shattered legions to avoid
a complete disaster. Indeed, it APP
peared impossible for him to effect Q
reteat without heavy losses of prisones,
guns and stores.
The continuous battle is already the
bloodiest Of the war. Upon the ground
that General Oku alone gained are
5000 Russian dead. The reports from
other armies are expected to triple this
figure. 1t is estimated that the Jap
anese have lost $4,000, making the
lint slaughter thus far exceed 100, 900
men.
Details Of the combat are lacking,
hut it is believed that the japanese
have cut the railway north of Mukden,
leaving only the roadways and light
railway from Fushun to Tie pass as
avenues for the retreat of the Russians,
but army headquarters refrain from
affirming or denying report to that
effect. 1t is thought that Mukden is
still in the hands of the Russians.
