WAR NEWS SUMMARY.
Reports of Magnitude of Disaster to Rus.
sian Fleet Confirmed-Admiral
Roiestyensky Missing.

Latest advices confirm the magn1-
tude of the disaster suffered by the
Russian fleet and point to the fact
that Russia 5 hopes, SO far as this
war is concerned, now lie in what
ever may be accomplished by the
army III Manchuria. An official re-
port received from Toxic by the
japanese Legation at Washington
Monday evening says that the Rus
slams losses definitely known in
clude two battleships, coast de
Tense ship, five cruisers, two spe-
cial ships and three destroyers sunk,
and two battleships, two coast de-
Tense ships, one destroyer and one
special service ship captured, while
over 5000 prisoners have been
taken, including Rear Admiral
Nebogatoff. The Japanese, it would
seem, are still pursuing the Rus
sian, and it may be some time be-
fore the final is known.
There is nothing to indicate
clearly the extent of the japanese
losses and it IS suggested from one
source that the Toxic Government
is waiting to hear from Admiral
,Rojestvensky by way of Vladivostok
before announcing to what extent
its feet has suffered. The news OF
the disaster has caused deep de
preston in official Russia, though
it is not yet known generally among
tte Russian people. Rojestvensky 5
defeat has given rise to renewed
talk of peace. It is pointed out by
the Associated Press st. Petersburg
correspondent that Russia in this
crisis will turn to France through
It's Foreign Minister, Delcasse,
while from Washington comes in
formation that President Roosevelt,
In accordance with his promise an
nounced a long time ago, IS taking
steps to do all in his power to bring
about peace negotiations.
Nothing has been heard from
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky. In
TOXIC there is some belief that he
has persisted, while another source
saws he was rescued by torpedo
boat and that he is wounded.
According to the London cor
respondent of the Daily Mail at
Seoul, Corea, early on Saturday
morning Vice Admiral Togo with
practically all the powerful fighting
ships of the Japanese navy was at
Masampho, Corea, when wireless
signals from his scouts, between
Tsu and Quelpart islands, announc-
The Brownsville daily herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1897-1910, 1905-06-02

ed the approach of the Russian
fleet in full force.
A few hours later the scouts re-
ported that the Russians were not
ascending the western channel, as
had been anticipated, but they were
coming up the eastern channel,
which caused some surprise.
Admiral Togo Immediately start
ed at full speed around the north
of the Tsu island, and when he
doubled the island he saw the Rus
SLAMS coming IN two columns. He
then brought terrific fire to bear on
the flank of the port column, and
as the Russians fell into disorder,
he forced them steadily eastward
toward the Japanese coast, where
they were attacked by every vessel
that few the japanese flag.
Repeated torpedo attacks were
delivered, some OF them with the
greatest success. The vessels that
the correspondent says,
will probably be able to reach
Vladivostok, and he adds that other
operations of the utmost impor-
lance are proceeding.

The Kelliher.Turner case.

When the demurrer in the case of
the State Of Oregon against Kelliher
and Turner came up for argument yes.
terday afternoon the attorneys for the
defense moved TO withdraw the demur-
rer and fled a motion to set aside the
indictment. After listening to the an.
gument of the attorneys on both sides,
which occupied nearly the whole Of the
afternoon, Judge Burnett took the case
under advisement.
The question TO be settled, and which
may determine whether or not these
men can be tried, is whether applica.
tion to purchase school land is a con.
tract, and whether the forging Of such
and instrument constitutes a crime.

Killed by Live wire.

While assisting in the rescue Of her
lS-year-Old son, who had been rendered
unconscious by an electric shock, Mrs.
Mary Jane Price, a well-known resi-.
dent of Butte, Montana, was electro
cuted Wednesday. The boy was seri-
ously burned, but he is expected to
recover. Samuel Price, husband Of the
deceased woman, suffered severe
shock while dragging the boys body
from the wire, and Arthur Merrick was
knocked down by the current Of elec.
tricity, while attempting to rescue
Mrs. Price and was seriously burned.
The children were playing about the
yard during the afternoon, and had
hooked a section Of baling wire over a
feed wire carrying 92OO volts. The wire
is used to feed arc lights, and the pow
er was not turned on until short time
before the accident The boys had

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,, Oct. 20, 1905.

Casing weather which has prevailed
during the week has given dealers their
first opportunity to gather cured sam
pies of their purchases made in the
fields some weeks ago and to make crit
ical examination of the merits of the
goods. To all appearances their guess
has been a good one for the leaf is show
ing up as we'll as the most sanguine
could expect. Whatever buying is be-
ing done in country districts now is
largely the work of the American Cigar
Co., whose men are in the market for
all grades of new leaf remaining unsold.
An active demand for cured leaf is
maintained in the local markets. From
New York comes the information that
the Boscobel and Stoddard '04 packings
of M. Fl. Bekkedal of 35OOcs have been
sold to the United Cigar Manufacturers.
Mr.. Neuberger of Bremen, who has been
in the state during the week, has sue
ceeded in picking up quite quantity of
goods suitable to his trade. Among
local packers E. G. Hopkins reports the
sale of 200cs: Mcintosh Bros, 10Ocs; A.
Jenson & Sons, 150cs of 'O4. K E. Ons-
gard sold Goes lot of 'O3 to Cans of
New York
Some tobacco has been removed from
the poles during the week for stripping
though farmers generally are not yet
ready to devote much time to this work.
The shipments out of storage reach
but 500cs for the week from this market
to all points.

1904 thinner Spanish for 13c to Davis
Sons Co. of Cincinnati. Jacob NJ Bak-

deal of tobacco for.the American market.

have been more inquiry and more act

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

We have experienced one of the best
periods for curing tobacco in the barns.
The mornings have not been unusually
cold and throughout the entire time the
days have been warm and sunny. In
the middle of the day the sum has shown
very hot at times, making it almost
July weather. The conditions of the
middle of the week have been fortunate
for those having late tobacco, as it will
cure more in one such day than a week
of cloudy, wet, windy weather.
But in the opinion of many growers
the tobacco will be better if it should be
dampened few times before it is strip
ped and put in the bundle. Stripping
has advanced in this vicinity quite con-
siderably and to my eyes the colors are
to my eyes the colors are good and no
large amount of pole sweat is indicated,
but as | have examined only few crops
[ may not have seen the worst. 1t has
been reported that in some barns the
leaves are actually falling off the stalks
from their own accord, and IN some in
stances the ground was literally covered
with leaves. | think the papers have
rather overrated the damage to the crop
from pole rot [ have heard that the
leaves slip off the stalk from handling to
some extent. In some Of these lots hard
ly leaf shows a mark of pole sweat
Our correspondents report as follows:
Wethersfeld, Ct.: "Not much doing in
the tobacco line. Some of the earliest
cut is nearly cured, and will be taken
down at the first damp. 1t is curing
a good color and promises to be of good
quality" North Hadley, Mass: The
fine weather of tne past week has put
the tobacco beyond the danger of pole
sweat, and the late cutting is curing
nicely. Not many sales yet but buyers
are expected when damp spell comes.
Some of the early cut tobacco was slight
ly darkened by the long rains, and it is
expected that some pole sweat will be
found" North Hatfield, Mass: mo
sales in this vicinity for number of
days, but there is some riding, and buy
ers are feeling our prices, and in most
instances were told that they did not
care to show the goods until the tobacco
was in the bundle. ."-Cultivator.

Leaf dealers are still taking things
easy and once in a while one may be
found busily engaged in making ship
ment. The long stretch of rain that oc-
Cured on Tuesday has ended the fear of
the hanging leaf of curing too rapidly.
Other from this but little is taking place
to excite the mind of the dealer for the
present.

gagged of late sampling large lot of

The principal business of the week
was done in Gebhart, Pennsylvania BIS

Wisconsin were heaviest, despite the
fact that some of the large firms have
not yet received samples. One firm re-

The presence of considerable damage is
admitted, though the bulk of the tobac

NEW YORK, Oct. IA, 1905.

NEW YORK. Oct. IA, 1905.
Quite boom seems to have swept and
is keeping on sweeping over our market
For transactions in seed leaf during the
past week or two equaled in volume
those as the very height of any season.
These transactions concern chiefly Wis
consin and Pennsylvania. From eight
to ten thousand boxes of Wisconsin
moved off the market during the past
two weeks and thousands of cases of
Pennsylvania were eagerly absorbed by
buyers and the advanced prices were
paid to. And those who paid them may
we'll be satisfied with having bought bar
gains. A very small portion of the 1904
Pennsylvania came tc the open market
anyhow, and it is unlikely that box
will remain on sale after the first of the
year. It is therefore probable that next
year the same grade of goods will bring
from 16 to Is cents. Wisconsin rules
the market with like sternness. Those
who made light of the predictions of the
U. S. Tobacco Journal months ago as to
the coming condition of the market are
realizing now to the great detriment of
their pockets the literal correctness of
our predictions, and those who are still
wavering to put faith in our market re-
ports will still be worse off when they
will be compelled to replenish their ex
hausted stock few months hence. From
month to month the cigar industry is in
creasing it's output with such steadiness
that record breaking year in the cigar
industry may be expected and the more
cigars are being turned out the less ade
quate is the supply of leaf A child
therefore can reckon out the conseouen-
ces. AS for the Sumatra, now that the
inscriptions for the year are over, a more
hopeful view may be entertained. There
is no wrapper leaf in the country to take
it's place as whatever there was of Con-
necticut and Florida leaf has mostly
been absorbed. Of course higher prices
will have to be paid for it, but higher
prices are rather the rule than the ex-
ception in times of prosperity. Similar
conditions prevail in the Havana market.
Prices for Remidios are soaring up to a
dollar per pound, which though consid-
cred abnormal now, was but the normal
figure but half generation ago. And
there is still stronger tendency for rise
in Factory Vegas, as the clear Havana
cigar output is proportionately advancing
faster than that of the seed and Havana
cigar. Notwithstanding the higher
prices, business in the Havana market is
steadily on the increase. journal.
