b an echo OF the teaiousies and divi-
sions among the officers OF the garri-
son, which the military tribunal which
tried the men denounced as having
worked largely to the downfall Of the
town.
Smirnofr. from the beginning. was
Gen. Stoessel's bitterest enemy. and
after the war and durinG the trial of
the former commander Of Port Arthur
he lost no opportunity to orit1oiss Stoes-
Gel In a spe~acular manner. On tho
other hand. Fock was a partisan OF
Stoessel. and it was his evidence at the
trial, in which he upheld the com
mander's judgment and prowess. that
caused Smirnoff to call him the Russian
for q shorter and uelier-"a liar and
vaanglorious boaster," according to an
exact translation.
Made Secret Report.
Gen. Smirnoff was acting comm andant
OF the Port Arthur fortress during the
siege and at the time of It's surrender
TO the Japanese After his return TO
Russia ne prepared a secret report o'
the defense Of Port Arthur, which was
the basis OF the Indictments on which
Lieut.-Gen Stoesse. Lieut.. Gen. Fock
who commanded the Fourth East ST.
berian Division N Port Arthur. and
Ma jor- Gen. Reiss. chief of staff of Gen.
Stoessel. were tried for their lives be-
fore the supreme court-marual.
Stoesse! was accused OF cowardice and
incapacity. and Fock. according TO the
Indictment, displayed thorough inca
pacity and want Of judgment. He was
charged with disobey!ng Stoessels or
de-s to defend Ts!n-Chau TO the last
extremity. His incompetence. accord
t,asy to Smirnoff. resulted in the Russian
defent at this point, and he induced
stoessel to order q retreat by declaring
the Russian troops to be in a most crit
ical position when this was not the fact.
He was further approached with every
kind Of pettiness and ,mischievous criti-
oism of the various commanders at
Port Arthur.
Bitter Against Them.
smirnoffs report has been character
lied as extremely biased and breathing
the most bitter personal enmity toward
the high officers OF the Port Arthur gar
rison.
The outcome OF the trial was the SEN
tencing TO death OF Gen. Stoessel. but
this finding vas later commuted to ten
years Imprisonment. while Fock was
ordered to be reprimandcd for dis
ciplinary offense.
sm'rnoff also was on trial before the
court-martial. charged with having
failed to remove S'ock from his COM
mand. although he suspected an agree
ment between Stoesscl and Fock to sur
render the fortress. He was acquitted
OF this charge.
During the trial Fock was reported
as the only one of the officers who pre-
served the ferocious demeanor and un-
rufrled dignity which are results OF the
training OF Russian soldiers. Stoessel
and Salirnoff frequently wept, especial
" when they We're denounced. and their
friends often showed much emotion.

Dear Sir:-I am in receipt Of your
letter of congratulation on being cho-
sen as nominee for governor OF the
great state of Arkansas by a majority
of the people. Also your tender offers
of assistance to fight the common enc
my, the Republican party. In answer
to your offer of assistance l wish to
say that the leaders in whose hands
the Democratic convention shall place
the cause of the party will, l am sure
consider carefully such assistance as
they may need.
referring to your statement in
Your letter that Il am especially pleas
ed at the result of this election, be-
cause, if the statements of both the
leading candidates and their friends
are to be believed, it was simply a
choice between Jeff Davis men-your-
self and Kirby and, that the people
selected me in belief that they were
selecting a jeff Davis man, l wish to
refer you to the third paragraph in
my open speech at Morrilton on the
7th day Of last October, and which
reads as follows:
Concerning the unfortunate recent
friction within the Democratic party
of Arkansas l have never been iden-
titled with any of them. l never will
be- | wear no mans collar. l pro-
pose to give every man square deal
on his merits as a man and citizen,
irrespective Of factional alliances in
the past.
(Signed) Yours,
GEORGE w. DONAGHEY.

George w. Donaghey, Arkansas next

ter written to him by United States
Senator jeff Davis, in which the lat
ter congratulated Mr.. Donaghey on his
success in the recent campaign, and
at the same time stated, Il am espe-
cially pleased at the result of his cleo
ton, because, if the statements Of
both the leading candidates and their
friends are to be believed, it is sim

men-yourself and Kirby"
This statement aroused the ire of no
small number of Donaghey followers
who are anti-Davvis people and who
did not relish the idea of hearing Sen
ator Davis call their champion a Davis
man.
Mr.. Donaghey made formal an
swe.r. He denied the allegation that
he is a Davis man" by referring Sem
ator- Davis to portion OF his opening
campaign speech in which he declared
that he was identified with no faction
of the Democratic party of Arkansas
and never would be; that he proposed
to give every man a square deal but
that he would wear no other mans
collar. His statement follows:

claiming that 1t can jump bitches ten
