A correspondent of the Associated Press, on crossing Lake Baikal, writes: "The stories of soldiers frozen to death while crossing the lako provoke mirth. . Personally I am convinced that the men are not suffering from the. cold. Huts at intervals of a few versts provide warmth and refreshment, and the weaker men are driven across in slelgh, well wrapped in furs. Others march the distance, forty versts? .(about twenty-six miles) comfortably in a day, and are glad of the opportunity to stretch their limbs fter Ihe railroad Journey. The huts ere provided with bells, which are rung during snowstorms, and lanterns hung on telegraph poles show the way at night, the Ice railroad conveying the baggage cars, which are drawn by horses.

RUSSIAN fflR EXPERTS THII JAPAHESE LIE

Ridicule Official Reports Made by Admiral Togo on Fighting- at Port Arthur. STUCKELBERG'S STORY ST. PETERSBURG. M;rch lS.-Th? war experts here are questioning the truth of the Japanese official reports, asking, for instance, how the torpedo boats of Vice Admiral Togo, the commiinder-in-chicf of the standing squadron, could lcfy mines, weighing 4' pounds, in the heavy sea, which Admiral Togo admits was running, even if the boats had room for them aboard; how fire could break out on the Russian torpedo boats, which carry nothing intlammable, and how a Japanese torpedo boat preserves its full rishtiag capacity if a steam pipe on board burst, and the Russian boats got away. Admiral Stackel'rjerg. who. on account of Illness, turned over the command of the Vladivostok squadron to Captain Reitzensteln, haä arrived In St. Petersburg. He gives an entirely dlllerent version or some of the reports, emanating from -Japanese sources, regarding th events before he left. The cruise of hiu squadron on Feb. rj to l eb. 10. in Japanese waters was made by order of AImlral Stark, for lis effwt upon the population of northern Japan. Admi-al Stackciberg denies that he fired upon Japanese merchantmen in Sangar strait?, lie says the . ships were captured and that while attempting to convey them to port a terrlhc blizzard sprang up and, not wishing to endanger the Russian cruiser?, after taking off the crew3 and passengers from the merchantmen one of the latter, loaded with contraband rice, was sunk. The other, which was a worthless tramp steimtr, was released to carry to the Japanese the story of the presence of the Russian warships in those waters for moral etTect. There never whm any bombardment of Hakodate, which is heavily fortified. The admiral adds that he cannot understand how such a stupid story was credited. He expressed the opinion that the war will be of long duration, judging from the extensive Japanese preparations, which were thoroughly understood at Vladivostok, where war was expected much earlier than it came. An expert in the military organ says that even presuming there are four divisions of Japanese at Ping-Yang, Korea, they could not venture to advance till reinforced by two more divisions, which would renuire another month "or six weeks. The writer contends that they could not advance more than seven miles a day, owing to the condition of the roads. He compares PingYiing with Plevna, and says the great drawback to the town is that it 13 surrounded bv marshes, which iv-m htw. in sects and malaria when the warm weather comes. Thje Admiralty has no confirmation of the reported loss of the torpedo boat destroyer Skori off Port Arthur. NEGRO EXPIATES BRUTAL CRIME 0M1E GALLOWS Henry Williams Hanged at Roan oke, Va., for Assault and Murder of White Woman. ROANOKE. Va.. March IS. Henry Wil liams, a negro, was hanged here to-day.

' The crime for which Mott was hanged was the shooting of his wife on Sundav. Jan. 4, 1W3. "For months previous to the murder he had been addicted to the use of liquor and drugs, causing a depressed mental condition. While East on a business trip his wife sold his laundry business in Missoula. He became greatly angered on his return, brooding constantly over his wife's action. On the day of the murder he became involved in a lengthy quarrel with his wife, which Was followed by his shooting her four times with a revolver, while she fwas fleeing from the room.

Alexieff Tells Czar Ping" " Yang Is Occupied by Japanese

(CONCLUDED FROM FIR ST PAGE tion and sought an asyium. Minister Allen declined to receive them and urged them to remain at their homes, stating that nothing would happen to them if they followed his advice. None of them has been molested. - , Hak Sang, who went -between the Emperor .nd the legations and was a frequent caller at the American legation, took refuge In the palace of flowers, which belongs to the Emperor, but is kept by a German woman and flies the German flag. Marquis Ito is now accommodated there. Hak Sang thereby Increased the suspicion that he was pro-Russian, and in view of Japanese successes he decided to flee from the country. He asked Minister Allen to allow him to go to Che-Foo on the Cincinnati. Minister Allen declined to do so, unless Japanese Minister Hayashi had no objections. Hayashi offered him transportation on a Japanese boat but Hak Sang being afraid to accept refused the offer and renewed his appeal to be allowed to go on the Cincinnati, to which Minister Hayashi consented. MISSIONARIES AT FUSAN NOT IN DANGER WASHINGTON, March 15. The following report has been received at the State Department . from United States Minister Griscom dated Tokio, Feb. 20: "In view of the fact that there are some twenty American missionaries in Fusan and that they are unable to communicate by telegraph with Mr. Allen In Seoul, I deemed it advisable to mention the matter formally to Baron Komura. In reply to my inquiries Raron Komura stated that ample measures were being taken to protect all foreigners in Fusan and the Japanese consul has been instructed to use every effort to this end. An additional number of Japanese police are being sent to Fusan to be at the disposal of the consul. In view of these precautions it seems hardly likely that the foreign residents at Fusan will be liable to any ill treatment other than that to which all noncombatants In time of war are subjected." MARQUIS ITO GREETS EMPEROR OF KOREA SEOUL, March IS.-Marquis Ito had a formal audience with the Emperor this afternoon In the council hall. The cere monies were conducted in the presence of the court. The Emperor wasJn his most affable mood. TsutsukI, secretary of the Japanese Privy Council, who accompanied Marquis Ito to Korea, told the Associated Press correspondent that the visit of the marquis was made purely in behalf of the Japanese Emperor to express sympathy with Korea in the present troublous times ajid contrary to the general impression it had no political object. Marquis Ito had not come to discuss the political or war situations, although his visit may have some consequence which will develop later. Tsutsukt admitted that Japan expected a prolonged war, but Japan had to meet Russian aggression and it was better to do so now than later. Marquis Ito will have several audiences with the Emperor.

The work of undocking the Russian gunboat Sivoutch has begun, so as to enable her to enter the Liao river at the earliest possible moment.

The above facts, together with the Russian demands for a market here for lumber and grain bags, is taken to indicate the proposed execution of plans to fortify the east bank of the Liao river from the railway station to the forts and the coast line to Kin-Chau. Official denials of the reports prevailing in Japan that Vice Admiral Makaroff iears the loss of his Meet if he remains at Port Arthur and therefore contemplates an attempt to escape, were sent to Tokio to-day.

BATTLE - SCARRED SHIPS ST. PETERSBURG, March IS. A correspondent of the Associated Press who has just visited Port Arthur telegraphs to-day from Mukden as follows: "Despite the various bombardments at Port Arthur, the external aspect of the city remains unchanged, although the enemy fired an enormous number of projectiles. The marine monsters in the harbor look like enormous black bulls, and the battleships and cruisers bear the marks of the fighting. The black clouds of smoke from their stacks overhang the town. Tho cruiser Pallada stands almost ready in the dock. "Near the entrance of the harbor can be seen the charred wrecks of the Japanese fire ships. Aboard one of the farthest out was found the body of a Japanese officer who had shot himself. Beside him lay a chart showing the course of the ilreships and the spot where they sank. "Six hours of firing by the heaviest guns during, the last bombardment did not demolish a single building, but cost a few lives. The husband and child of the Baroness Frank, who was decapitated by fragments of shell flying in through the window, were unharmed. "The enemy, in endeavoring to stand as far as possible outside the range of the Russian batteries, rendered their own fire ineffective. The people are getting used to the bombardments, and the Japanese squadron cruising in the offing causes little alarm. Occupations are resuming their wonted course, and many stores have been reopened. "Not a few women heroically refuse to leave Port Arthur, regardless of . the tragic death of Raroness Frank. During the height of the cannonading one woman, armed with dressings for wounds, wandered the streets, ready to afford aid to the wounded. "A branch of the Russo-Chlneso bank is doing business, and many wives of the officers and soldiers are returning äs sisters of mercy. The land defenses are being strengthened every day, and the troops are eager to fight.- The gayety and good spirits of the troops is surprising. "During the engagement between the Russian and the Japanese torpedo boat destroyers the boats came into very close quarters, being withiu only a few fathoms length of each other. A torpedo from the Russian destroyer Vlastlni tore off the stern of one of the enemy's destroyers, her captain standing on the bridge as she sank, amid wild cries. "The Japanese squadrion Is now reckoned to consist only of the battleships Shikishima, the Hatsuse, the Yashima, the Mikasa, the Ashi and the Fudashi. "Port Arthur Is exceedingly gloomy at night, all lights being out. Pickets patrol the streets, stopping pedestrians. "Three Chunchuses (Chinese bandits) a few days ago attacked a house in the center of the town. The master of the house killed two of the bandits, and a third was killed by the officers. .. "The understanding at Port Arthur is that the Japahese are proposing to effect a landing west of the Liao river." FIRE RAVAGES THE BATSON OIL FIELD BEAUMONT. Tex.. March IS.

CHICAGO IS SAID TO IE SLOW III RAISING $75

00

Has Not Yet Subscribed Money Promised the Republican National Committee. MEETING MAY BE HELD WASHINGTON. March lS.-It was said to-night by' a member of the Republican national committee that Chicago had not yet placed to the credit of the committee any part of the $75.CmX) which Samuel Raymond, one of the local committee which secured the convention for Chicago, agreed should be put up to guarantee expenses. Shortly before Senator Hanna's death Senator Hanna notified the Chicago committee that J 15.000 or $JO.0öO should be deposited subject to the check of the secretary of the committee to defray preliminary expenses of the committee. Some bills having arrived for expenses of the committee on arrangements, which recently isited Chicago, the matter again was brought to Mr. Raymond's attention, whereupon the latter replied that the local committee had been disappointed in collecting subscriptions and did not have the money asked for, but Mr. Raymond requested the committee to draw on him for uny expenses that might be incurred meanwhile. This reply was not acted on, but two days ago another letter was sent, directing the deposit at once of J-VViK) in a trust company of Chicago subject to the check of the corqmlttee on arrangements, and it Is said if a response is not received that this has been done tho executive committee of the national committee will be called together to decide what should be done about the matter. CHIC AGO ANS SAY THE MONEY WILL BE READY CHICAGO. March IS. It is positively denied by members of the Chicago committee that visited Washington for the purpose of securing the national Republican convention that any of the demands of the national committee have not been complied With. State Senator Daniel Campbell said tonight after being shown the Washington dispatch: "It is not true that Chicago has refused any demand of the national committee, or has failed to meet its calls for money. The national committee has not made any demands, and it would be somewhat difficult to refuse a request that has never been made. Some time ago the national committee intimated that it might be well to place in one of the Chicago banks 110,0" to the credit of the committee. The matter was not represented as urgent and the money has not yet been deposited. That matter need not worry the national committee, for the reason that several of the members of the Chicago committee when in Washington told the national committee that they would personally stand for any necessary drafts if they should be mode before the money had been raised by subscription. That Is about all the national committee need care about. It can have the money when it calls for it." Dr. T. N. Jamieson, another member of the committee, with Mr. Campbell, corroborated the statements made by the latter.
