st. Petersburg Learns That Nebogatoft

Toeo's SHIPS CONCENTRATE

There are indications that French
hospitality will not be taxed much
longer by the Russian warships which
have been lowering about the coast of
Indo- China for nearly month. OFF,
cial advices have reached st. Peters,
burg which are believed to indicate
that the division under Vice Admiral
Nebogatoff has effected a junction
with the more powerful squadron COM
manded by Vice Admiral Rojestvensky,
and at the Russian capital 1t is said
that the combined squadrons will lose
no time in steaming northward to en-
counter the Japanese.
Confirmation of st. Petersburg's ex-
pectations is afforded by an official dis
patch to French naval officers an
nouncing that the Russian squadron
has left Konghai bay, it's destination
being unknown. The bay named Is
probably what is shown on some maps
as Kanh Hoa, or Mia Thrang, which
is few miles south Of Hon Kobe bay,
where the Russian ships were recently
reported to be.
simultaneously with this comes the
news that Japanese warships are con-
centrating in the straits of Formosa,
the scouting line being extended.
There has been increasing feeling in
Japanese official quarters regarding
the way in which France has construed
neutrality, and Great Britain's sympa-
thy for her ally has been evidenced in
communications that have passed be-
tween the British foreign secretary and
the French ambassador in London, as
well as between the British ambassa-
dor in Paris and Foreign Minister Del
casse.

IN CHICAGO
BOTH SIDES CLAIM GAINS
Department and Dry Goods Stores
Have Nearly Full Complement
of Teams Out-Events
of the Day
BOTH SIDES CLAIM GAINS

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, May S.-Both employers
and strikers claim gains today in the
teamsters' strike. The employers de-
clare that they have gained a decided
advantage in the number of the wagons
and the amount of business transacted.
Th strikers claim is based upon the
fact that $50 drivers for the various
furniture dealers in the city will strike
tomorrow morning, and also 150 paint
workers employed by the Heath & Mil
ligan company. The strike of the fur
niture dealers drivers was foreshad-
owed on Saturday, when at a conven-
tion of the Furniture Dealers associa-
ton 1t was declared that their men
must make deliveries irrespective of
strike conditions. They today ordered
their men to carry goods to the boy
cotted houses. and the strike tomor-
row will be the result.
The paint workers of Heath & Milli-
gan are the first members of any union
not member of the teamsters' organi-
zation to go on strike in support of
the teamsters. They have walked out
because of delivery of goods by non
union teamsters.
Business Nearer Normal Basis
The State street department stores
and the dry goods houses had nearly
their entire complement of delivery
wagons out today and throughout the
day transacted on almost a normal
basis. Fifteen hundred wagons manned
by non-union men were operated from
State street today, and the number will
be materially increased tomorrow. No
more colored men are being hired either
by the State street stores or by the EN-
ployers' Teaming company and as
rapidly as possible those now at work
are being supplanted by white men.
At the office of the Employers Team
ing company tonight it was announced
that 1876 white men had been imported
during the day from Cincinnati and
Kansas City and seventy-five more had
been secured in Chicago. Individual
contracts were made with all of these
men and they will be given permanent
employment. The rioting today was of

ST. PETERSBURG, May S.-Interest
Is once more directed to Manchuria, the
news from that point indicating that
Field Marshal Oyama Is pressing Gen.
Linevitch's advance posts east and west
of the railroad with considerable force.
as If about to undertake a general Of
fensive movement. The Russians are
offering slight resistance and are fall
ing back upon their first line of defense.
The Russian advance post covers a
front of about 100 miles, extending
from Singtmantsu, on the Lao river,
in a southeasterly direction, across the
railroad above Changtu to the Man
DARN road, leading to Kirin and to
Kamal pass, about seventy miles due
east of Tie pass. The Russian cavalry
protect both wings, small bodies being
probably beyond the Liao river in Mon
golia to guard against a surprise turn
ing movement in that direction.
Experts, however, believe that Oya-
mas purpose is to thrust in from the
east, turn Kirin and interpose himself
between Harbin and Vladivostok, pre-
paratory to the investment of the lat
ter plice. Linevitch's disposition
seems especially taken to meet such
a plan. He would not give battle along
it's present line, but would gradually
retire and draw in his forces as Oya-
mas strategy develops to the main
Russian positions. which extend due
east and west from Kirin through
Kuanchangtsu to Huaitathsien.
A considerable force of troops also
is reported to be due east of Kirin as
far south as the Tumen river to contest
the Japanese advance northeastward
toward Vladivostok.
oyama Fully Reinforced
Oyama is said to have received
large reinforcements, and he brought
up immense quantities of supplies and
ammunition after the battle of Muk-
den, both by way of Sinmintin and over
the reconstructed Manchurian railroad
But at the war office here there is a
difference of opinion as to whether
Oyama is yet ready and, ii is added,
that If he is in earnest, probably almost
a fortnight will elapse before the issue
is decided, the preliminaries of each Of
