THE WAR IN THE FAR EAST.

The japanese have made a forward
moevment, crossing the Shakhe river,
but their advance was temporarily
checked by the arrival of supports to
the Russian vanguard. The Japanese
are said to be preparing demonstra-
ton on the Russian center.
st. Petersburg dispatches report q
heavy engagement on the Russian left
in Manchuria, where Gen. Kuropatkin
endeavored to occupy an advanced POI
sition, but was met by heavy Jap
anese force and driven back. The
losses are said to have been very
heavy.
The Japanese are resuming activity
on the Russian right, and are, appar-
emily, attempting turning movement.
Several Russian outposts have been
driven in and the advancing Japanese
are getting in touch with fortified posi-
tions.
The Japanese forced the Russians to
abandon their base at Beresneff hill.
The battle was desperate on both sides,
but the result is not yet known.
Rumors were current in st. Peters
burg that Gen. Kuropatkin had been
outfanked by a strong force Of jap
anese in the vicinity of Simintin, and
had been compelled to recede from his
strong position on the Shakhe river.

BELIEVES GOMEZ A PATRIOT.
President of Cuban Senate Interviewed
in New York.

NEW YORK, October 2S-Col Manuel
Sanguily, president of the Cuban senate ar
rived today from visit to France and
of Gen. Gomez's coming to this country and
that he would not believe he came here to
seek intervention until Gen. Gomez told him
that was his mission
Il believe Gen. Gomez is patriot" he
said, land no patriot will ask for inter-
vention. Placing myself in Gen. Gomez s
position, if, as he says, the government
closes all doors to me, and my party has
no chance, ! would seek a legal remedy"
Col Sanguily said the proposed English
treaty with Cuba had been exaggerated
and that there was nothing to which the
United States could object. Col. Sanguily
will remain in this city several weeks, and
expects to meet Gen. Gomez here.
Col Sanguily tonight said:
Il have been away from Cuba for six
months so and l really don't know what
are the provisions of the Anglo-Cuban
treaty; therefore how can l say how l will
faniHarize myself with the provisions of
the bill, and it will be discussed In any
event [ will not vote on the matter at all
unless the Cuban senate vote results II a
tie. The senate does not sit until Novem-
Der 1, and l will not get back there for
three weeks yet
Cuba owes a debt of gratitude 10 the
United States. She has not forgotten that
doht; neither have !, My duty is TO my
country, and her interests shall be mine
and shall only influence my decision, in case
/ shall be called upon to give it,"

CUNLIFFE's SENTENCE
Deferred to Possibly Recover Money
Still Missing.

PITTSBURG. Pa, October 2S.-The per-
sistent report that Mrs. Cunliffe, the Wife
of Edward G. CunifTe. the Adams express
robber. had in her possession $4,000 OF the
slo1 ,OCO stolen by her husband on October .
was confirmed today, when Supt. II. j.
Bidderman of the Pinkerton detective
agency went to the Cuniiffe home No 314
Lorenz street. West End, this city, and in
the lining of a baby carriage found pack
age containing 5000.
On the night Cunliffe was brought here
from Bridgeport Conn, where he was cap
tured, he made written confession to
the authorities that he had given his wife
5000 Mrs. Cunliffe, who in the mean
time had moved to her fathers home at
Hartford. Conn, denied that she had the
money, notwithstanding that she was
shown the written confession made by her
husband. She was repeatedly questioned
however, and today admitted to the detect
ives at Hartford Conn, where the money
could he found
The authorities say there now remains
about 5000 which has not been accounted
car
HARTFORD, Conn, October 2s-Mrs
Cunliffe tonight made the following state
ment:
Il emphatically deny that as Il result of
any confession made by me 5000 of the
money stolen by my husband was found in
a baby carriage in our home at Pittsburg
If the money was found stated by
Robert A. Pinkerton it was because of dis
closures made by my husband l main
tanned throughout the ordeal TO which
was subjected by the detectives that | had
none of the stolen money nor had | hidden
any. The allegation of Robert A. Pinkerton
regarding a confession made by me is abb
solutely false

TYPHOID FEVER SITUATION.
Analysis Of Conditions From an Off
cial Standpoint

Typhoid fever gained and lost during the
past week-gained in number of cases re-
ported as compared with the corresponding
periods ending October II and October 81,
and lost because more patients recovered
than were stricken with the disease.
In brief summary the record of the week
included thirty-six new cases reported, fifty
one patients recovered and eight deaths
The number still under treatment last night
totaled 179 Altogether since July l there
have been 500 persons stricken with typhoid
fever
1t was stated exclusively in The Star a
week ago in story recalling statements
made early in the outbreak by Health Off
Ger Woodward that typhoid fever should
show a decrease of fully 80 per cent three
weeks after the entire water supply was
furnished from the filtration plant Filtra-
ton of the total supply, 71,000,00o gallons
daily, was begun on October B. and the
period of three weeks accordingly was
ended Thursday, October 26. The reduc-
ton in number of cases has not yet become
manifest, and 1t is now stated in the abb
sence of DR.. Woodward from the city that
the full benefit of publication Of the water
will not be felt until next spring. Tenta-
tive explanation of the continued prevalence
of the disease is made on the score that the
cases now coming in developed during
previous weeks and were not reported until
the physicians In charge were sure of the
diagnosis. Only two of the patients added
to the list last week were from outside the
jurisdiction OF the District.
