The damage done by the bombardment of the Japanese fleet Is said to have been Insignificant. Viceroy Alexeiff' will return to Mukden on Tuesday.

It i generally believed the Japanese will not attack Nleu-Chwang. It Is thought that thej.p opportunity has passed. The Russian forces are ready and prepared to defend the plate.

IN MANCHURIA NEW YORK. April 4. Supplies are plentiful in Manchuria and the Russians are doing everything to encourage the natives to furnish provisions in the future, sajs a World dispatch from Yln-Kow. It Is said they are even paying farmers half-price in advance for this year's product. The Russians are paying well also for transport, giving five roubles ($2.00) a day for carts aud forty roubles for cart-hire from LlaoYang to the Yalu river. There Is not the Fliehtest sign, the correspondent avers, of ill feeling toward the Russians among the natives. RUSSIA CONCEALING ' NEIVS OF OPERATIONS ST. PETERSBURG, April 4. As the time approaches for the opening of land operations on a large scale tho Russian authorities are exercising greater vigilance to prevent the news of their plans for the disposition of troops in the theater of war from going abroad. For ten days not a crap of Information, except such as Is contalm-d in olficial dispatches, has been given out or has come from the front. There practically exists an embargo upon news dispatches. It is as if an impenetrable curtain had suddenly been rung down on the stage of war In east Asia. Uehind this curtain the greatest activity prevails. quarters in Llao-Yang, Is directing the .exquarters in Llao Yang, is directing the execution of his plans, moving troops, strengthening tho positions selected and otherwise looking after th organization and innumerable wants of the army in tho field. That the general's plan of campaign has been worked out, and that It Involves the playing of a waiting game until the disposition of the army has been completed, can be stated with positlveness. It can also be statei that these plans are progrcsfing even more rapidly than expected. Every day Is now considered a distinct "gain for the Russians and as distinct a loss for the Japanese. For this reason it caa be confidently predicted that the Russians will not do more than harass the Japanese advance In Korea. The gradual withdrawal cf the Russians does not mean anything as determining the fighting capacities of the men of the respective armies; it is part of the Russian tactics. Tho melting of the snow in a mountainous country will render Impassable in the vprlng the roads over which the Japauesa must come and this is considered to be almost as effective an opposition as a Russian army corps. The Russians also count upon a Japanese flanking movement in connection with a frontal attack, and therefore -a Russian force has been disposed along the Tumen to prevent the entrance Of a Japanese column here. Another flanking movement is expected at the head of the Liao-Tung gulf near Nleu-Chwang and everything there Is Wing prepared to receive the enemy, but for the present the hirts For Spring Wear A larger line of light, figured, all whites and the new steel gray effects in Madras and Oxford Cloths than ever.

Russian military authoritis believe that the Japar.es- game at this point has been blocked by the failure of the attempts to bottle up and render Immovable the fleet of Vice Admiral Makaroff which, while free, will be too great a men: ce to the movement of Japanese transports into the gulf of Pe-Chi-Ia. Another t ffort to block i'ort Arthur is consequently expected daily. One of the principal reasons for Viceroy Alexieff's vteit to Port Arthur Is understood to have ben to consult Vicx; Admiral Makaroff with a view to devising plans for defeating those attacks. It is hinted in hip,h quarters that the next time the Japanese appear off I'ort Arthur they will rind a surprise awaiting thrm. Viceroy Alexieff has returned to Mukden.

ARREST OFAHIT füll! UHCQVEB BAD PLOT Chicago Officials Suspected of Illegally Making Citizens of . Foreigners.

TALE TOLD BY ITALIAN NEW YORK, April 4. Arnold Waebcr, a young Italian, was arrested by the immigration authorities at Ellis island to-day on the charge of having fraudulent naturalization papers in his possession. If the story he tells is to be believed some Chicngo officials have been making citizens of foreigners who have not been in this country the required time. Waebcr says that while living in San Francisco he married and started for Italy. lie reached Chicago about a year ago on hi3 way to New York. On the night of April 2, 1003, he went to an Italian political club on Clark street with about a hundred of his countrymen. They were asked to hold up their right hands and swear that they forever renounced the King of Italy and "would be for all time to come a subject of the king of the United States." Each man in turn, the Italian swears, was then handed a certificate of naturalization. Waebcr says they were asked no questions as to how long they were in this country, nor were they required to pay any fees for the issuance of the papers in return for the "free papers." Waeber says each man promised to vote at the municipal election in Chicago a week later and to register a vote against Mayor Carter Harrison. The Italian says he left the following clay with his wife and a fellow-countryman for New York, where all three took a steamer for Italy. After remaining in Italy nearly a year, Waeber and his wifo decided to return to the United States. On arrival he informed the immigration authorities that he was a citizen, and produced his papers. Being asked when he came to this country, he gave the correct date, which disclosed the fact that he was not legally entitled to -the citizenship papers. His arrest followed. When arraigned to-day before United States Commissioner Shields Waeber waived examination and was bound over to the ciext federal grand jury.

MISSIOHMf WRITES OF COIDITIK 1ST SEOUL Women and Children Prepare to Leave, as City Is Filling with Soldiers.

SUPPLIES RUNNING LOW NEW YORK, April 4.-Mrs. M. F. Scranton, a missionary to Korea of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, who is now at home on leave, received a letter to-day from Miss Josephine O. Paine, principal of the Methodist girls' schools at Seoul dated March 1. The letter says, in part: "I venture to say tho morning papers cannot come too early for you these days, and yet when it does reach you it is fur from satisfactory. The' reporters who arc here say they do not know if what they send home goes as it is sent or not. Quite a number of reporters reached here while passenger steamers were still running. One correspondent got as far as Mokpo and then came from there to Chemulpo. It took him a week and he had a hard time, but as he left fifty other reporters at Mokpo who are still there trying to find some way by which to reach Seoul, I suppose he feels repaid for his efforts. "First, about our Ping-Yang missionaries. The women and children have everything packed ready to leave as soon as they can be brought away, but as yet a transport can go no further north than Hai-Chou. Dr. Allen, the American minister, says that if it becomes necessary he will have them come overland to that place and have the transport meet them there. On Sunday morning the Japanese met a number of Bussian scouts somewhere near Kija's grave (near Ping-Ynng), but they retreated as soon as they were tired upon. The Japanese are .keeping the ground warm between here and Ping-Yang. Every day for more than two weeks they have been pouring into Seoul, and every morning for the past week or ten days they have been leaving for Ping-Yang. "We are feeling a little anxious about the people at Syen-Chun. Dr. Allen telegraphed for the women and children to go to Pyeg-Yang. "They telegraphed back for coolies and said they must bring their food to last going and coming. Dr. Allen has word thatMrs. Kearns and Miss Samuels have reaciK-d Ping-Yang, but as yet Mrs. Roose, Mrs. Sharrocks, their four children and Miss Shields (these ladies are. Presbyterian missionaries) had not yet arrived. Mr. Noble had a place on tho district about lß5 Ii from ring-Yang, where he thinks the native workers will be safe, and that many of the native Christians are going there. The Ping-Yang missionaries may be taken direct to Shanghai, and we may have to go, too. "Seoul is full of Japanese troops. They are even quartering them on the Koreans. In all the large towns the women have been put in the back rooms and the front rooms have been given to the soldiers. I do not need to mention prices, for we are paying' war prices. About the 1st of January, when Miss Frey and I saw what was coming, we bought rice and beans enough to keep the school children from being hungry until late spring. Our store TO?! ,,a In a very Sood condition, which is fortunate, as the stores are already running out of things. It has been almost a month now since anv cargo or passenger steamers have come from Japan The very last to come was the Russian steamer Sunpari. which brought the bishop (David II. Moore), and you have already heard of its fate. The mail is being brought on the transports, for which of course, we are devoutly thankful, but that is all they bring, except soldiers." BROTHERS WHO BEAT WOMAN ARE KILLED ATHENS, Tex., April 4. Jim Hering and Walter Hering were killed while resisting arrest by the city marshal at this place.

XO AID TO CIVILIZATION FAR1S, April 5. A correspondent of the Figaro cables an interview with Count Tolstoi on the subject of the war, in which the author declared that the first duty of thinking beings was to abolish war. He refused to admit that a Russian victory would mean the spread of civilization, ani said he was not convinced that civilization was found In Europe merely because tho Europeans had created artificial need?, such as railways and telegraphs, adding: "It Is not by these modern Inventions that we must judge the development of the human mentality." Asked whether he bad not made tome reservation on the subject of the practical application of the ideas which he preached. ToI.tol said: - "To be quite sincere, I am not entirely freed from the notion of patriotism and I feci that It persists despite myfelf, owing to atavism and educations but when I cxamine my fundamental duty I say unreservedly that no reasons In the world stand before the reasons of humanity. a"nd my conscience tells me that slaughter under whatever pretext Is execrable, that war is a monster scourge and that everything leading to war is to be utterly condemned."
