blow against the Japanese center,
Selling railroad bridge across the
Shakhe river. These reports, there
fore, give n more hopeful aspect to the
situation, as the Russian army, though
driven out of Da pass, appears to have
succeeded in stopping, at least for the
moment, the further advance of the
Japanese eastward and beaten off the
attack on the center.
The effect of Tuesdays develop
ments on General Kuropatkin's re-
ported intention to withdraw from the
ShalShe is problematical. Retirement
in the face of an nemy, which Is ex-
tremely hazardous under any circum-
stances, is doubly dangerous when the
armies are graphing in general en-
gagement: but if General Kuroki sue
ceeds in rolling up the Russian left
much further the perilous eXpedient
may become necessary. The counter
strokes on the right and center may
possibly be intended to cover the with
raxing trains and stores.
If, however, General Kuropatkin is
determined to stand and fight out the
battle on the line which he has held
during the winter, and if he should be
able to administer vigorous check to
General Kuroki, he has secured good
position for his second move in the
great game.

CHECK JAP ADVANCE
RUSSIANS ALSO SIEZE TWO PO-
sITIoNs FORMERLY HELD
BY ISLANDERS. aa 30

Mukden, March 1.-The Russians
have seized the head of the bridge
across the Shakhe river in the center
of the Japanese lines, assisted by ar
tillery firing of particular energy from
Putiloff hill and Novogorod hill.
The seizure of the railway bridge
across the Shakhe river was the occa-
sion of a sharp combat. The Russians
succeeded in surprising the Japanese
bridge guards and, reinforced, beat off
all attempts of the Japanese to regain
possession of it. The Japanese are
using heavy siege artillery in the bonn
bardment of Putiloff hill and Novogo-
rod hill and this is believed to be pre-
liminary TO an attempt to storm them.
The losses to the defending forces
are insignificant.
The roar of artillery firing is echo
ing from the hills eastward to the low
fats of the Hun river valley, the
scene of General Gripenbergs repulse.
The fight appears to be developing in
intensity along the whole line.
Ten determined attacks opposite
Yangsintung and west of Vanupudzi
were all repulsed with heavy loss.
The situation on the Russian left
flank is unchanged as compared with
Monday evening. ~sr @I,H
Fighting is in progress along the
whole line, the Japanese attacking
everywhere. All attacks Tuesday
morning were beaten back and the
Russians made counter attacks at
many places. On the right flank the
Russians occupied the village of Boa
talzsi. which is close to Sandiapu, and
from that position hurled hand gre
nades across the intervening ravine
into the Japanese trenches in Sandal
pu, causing heavy loss and great dis.

NEW DOMESTIC JAP LOAN.
Expected That It viii Be DoubIy Sub
scribed.

ScrlEed.
Toxic, March IA meeting of bank
ers and financiers was held during the
day for the purpose of discussing the
subscriptions to the new domestic
loan should it be found to be over
subscribed when the list is opened.
At the close of the meeting the as
ISOLATED bankers announced that they
would take 60,00O,0OO yen, abor!. $780,
600, 900. The imperial household will
take 100000 yen, and other corpora
lions and individuals 100000 ven.
It is expected that the loan will be
doubly subscribed. Count Okuma, ad-
dressing the meeting, said that the
Japanese domestic financial capacity
was astonishing even to it's friends.
He expressed the belief that the slight
disturbance in financial conditions de-
spite the enormous expenditures, was
due to the fact that agriculture fur
nished the country's great wealth.
Continuing, Count Okuma said that he
believed the country would continue
the war without any feeling of en-
barrassment.

Discussion of the Measure Occupies
Time of the Senate.

Washington, March 1.-The senate
spent almost the entire day consider
ing items in the Indian appropriation
bill which were not passed on Monday
and extended the session into the
night for that purpose. There was
quite lengthy discussion of the COM
mittee amendment prohibiting the use
Of tribal funds in the support of secre-
tartan schools. The provision was
modified SO as to allow individual mem
bers of tribes to use their proportion
of funds in support of such schools and
as thus amended was agreed to. Many
other features of the bill were also de-
bated. -pl a.5
Another feature of the day was a
speech by Mr.. Kearns of Utah on the
Mormon church. He charged that the
church controls the politics and bust.
ness of Utah. He denied in emphatic
terms that he had paid Lorenzo Snow,
the president of the church, for sup
port of himself for senator.

Davenport, Ia, March because

though one pleaded guilty and the
other was under Indictment:
Judge j. w. Bollinger of the district
court here during the day held that the
law was defective because it failed to
provide punishment and he ordered
the indictment of M. Beuthien quash-
ed. Arnold Beuthien had pleaded
guilty, but he will withdraw this plea
and will be liberated. The Beuthien
bank failure involved more than $780,

COSTLY FIRE IN OHIO
Property Worth Half a Million
Dollars Is Destroyed.
Third Bad Blaze This Winter
at East Liverpool.
Six Fine Buildings and Several
Small Ones { 0Rsumed.
Heavy Losses in Most Cases
Covered BY insurance.

East Liverpool. o., March 1.-The
third destructive blaze here this win
ter and by far the worst in the history
of East Liverpool, broke out at z
o'clock p. M. and by midnight, when
the firemen had gained control, six
fine buildings and many smaller ones
were in ashes while others were
scorched or damaged by water, caus-
ing a total loss of more than 100000.
The blaze started in the shoe store
of w. II. Gas in Market street and
spread with rapidity. Numerous bust
ness offices were burned out. The
square bounded by Diamond and Null
berry alleys, Fifth avenues and Mar
ket street was completely cleaned out,
not a building being left standing. The
fire leaped across both alleys and
buildings on the opposite side were de-
stroyed or damaged. Scarcely any Of
the occupants of the buildings burned
saved any furnishings of value. On
account of the danger to firemen from
live wires, the electric lights were shut
off and the city was without light,
save that furnished by burning build
ings. For blocks around the fire, how
ever, the streets were as light as day.
Among the heavy losses, which are
in most cases covered by insurance,
are:
Milligan Hardware and Supply COM
pany, $130,0O0; A. S. Young. owner of
the Boston Dry Goods store, $4,000;
Wasbutsky Bros, dry goods store,
$4,000; Cummings & Ikirt, 100000;
Buckley club, $4,000; Fraternal Order
of Eagles and other lodges, 100000.

BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
Large Number CT Bills Passed by the
House.

Washington. March 1.-The session
of the house during the day was de-
void of any incidents such as marked
the closing hours Monday. On the
contrary, the proceedings were order
ly and without particular note.
AS an evidence of the approaching
adjournmeH, large number of bills
were passed by unanimous consent
and an evening session was held in or
der to discuss the general deficiency
appropriation bill.
During the day the bills amending
the homestead laws as to lands in
South Dakota and Colorado, so as to
permit the entry of $40 acres instead
of 160 were discussed. Final action
on them, however, was prevented by
the dilatory tactics of the opposition.
