this plan, giving a reason that It would r a direct .violation of the peace treaty. The treaty would only be broken were the representatives of his Imperial Highness to offer commission to members of the regular annv of the United State?.

HOLLY AFTER THE CONTRACT. -Mr. Holly, in an .interview concerning the plan of the Chine&e government to secure American officers for its troops, said: "Our company is trying hard to secure the contract for transporting the men who accept the offers of General . English . to accept commissions in the Chinese army. I have just cabled to our representative at Hong-Kong, Mr. Henry Chwang, to submit bids for the work. "I have talked to General English and he seems to be confident of his ability to secure hundreds of competent officers for the imperial forces. I know that letters have been sent broadcast throughout the United Etates to former commissioned officers-of the volunteer army, and General English is receiving a number of acceptances. Prince Iu Lun. who appointed General English, Is the personal representative of the dowager Empresa, and the plan is being worked out with the full approbation of that wonderful woman."

FLOWER OF THE RUSSIAN ' ARMY REVIEWED BY CZAR Forty-Thousand Soldiers Pass Before His .Majesty on the Champs De Mars.

SPECTACULAR CHARGE ÖTV PETERSBURG. May 11. There were scenes of martial splendor on th; Champs de Mars to-day when Empcrrr Nicholas held his annual review of the detachments of all troops in the military district of St. Petersburg, which include every regiment of the imperial guard. The foreign military attaches scrutinized with more than ordinary care the defile of crack regiments of the empire which is now battling to maintain its position in the far East, and the general verdict was that no better body of soldiers could be seen in Europe. The field on which the review was held presented a stirring picture. Drawn up on the vast plain were 40,OjO of the finest troops in the empire arrayed in brilliant uniforms. Stretching back from the front like waves on a sea were the foot soldiers, rank upon rank. Behind them were great parks of artillery, while back into the radiating streets as far as the eye could" see were the fluttering pennants of the splendid cavalry. Preceded by the generals in lambskin caps and followed by an imposing entourage, which included the military attache?, among whom were Capt. B. T. Mott and Major Macomb, representing the United States, the imperial cortege moved through the summer garden to the plain. The Empress and the Empress's mother role In an open state carriage with Cossack footmen and drawn by six white stallions. The Emperor was mounted on a coal-black charger and wore the dark-gn-tn uniform of a colonel of Foot Guards, with the blue" sash of the Order of St. Andrew across his breastr his being by far the most modest uniform In the imperial procession. Like a shuttle the cortege passed back and forth as the Emperor inspected the various regiments. "Good day, my children, was his universal greeting. "Good health, your imperial Majesty," w-as the unfailing response. When the inspection was completed the Danjls were massed opposite the imperial pavilion. The Empress took. her place with t L i? antl moved some distance to the right. Out in front, alone save for a busier and two Circassians of the guard in bright crimson, the Emperor sat his charger like a statue. He looked strong and well. Then he dellle of splendid battalions began, the bands playing regimental airs throughout the review. Tl!e revlew concluded with the charge of 10.0) cavalry at full speed across the plain. With a front half a mile wide the magnificent horsemen in strange and multi-colored uniforms and with Hags and pennants streaming, shot forward like one man at the command of Grand Duke Vladimir, who is. commander-in-chief of all the guard regiments. The very earth seemed to tremble under the thunder of horses' hoofs. - On they came at tuch a mad pace that it seemed as if they must carry down all before them. Instlnctlrely those in the boxes drew back, but scarcely live paces beyond the Emperor Grand Duke Vladimir threw up hl3 sword and the line stopped dead, many horses being thrown upon theii haunches, but-not a man or beast went down. A great burst of applause came from the spectators. Then, In accordance with custom, the commanding officers moved up to hear the Emperor's criticism, and at the same time the senior noncommissioned officer of each detachment of troops repaired to the imperial pavilion to pay his respects to the Empress She rewarded these noncommissioned officers by directing the distribution of three roubles to each and one rouble to each man participating in the review. Grand Duke Michael, the heir apparent to the Russian throne, marched with one of the. foot guard regiments In which he is a lieutenant. RENEWS HIS REQUEST FOR HOSPITAL REPAIRS Dr. E. C. Reyer Says Sum of $16,000 Is Needed to Make Building Safe. " Dr. E. C. Reyer, president of the City Board of Health, has renewed the request cf the Health Board for the appropriation of 25,000 to be used in repairing the City Hospital. Members of the board do not fa-, vor the ordinance drawn by City Controller Dunn, which provides for an appropriation of $2.000 to construct lire escapes at the hospital.

REMARKABLE GAMBLING STORIES TOLD IN COURT but some months afterwards the court circular announced that the presentation Was canceled. This Sievier attributed entirely to the fact that he had been a bookmaker In Australia. Through all the phases of his checkered career, from the time he "smacked Lord Deerhurst's face" in a Melbourne racing club (the same Deerhu.-st who married Miss Bonynge, of San Francisco, and who then was aid-de-camp to the governor), up to the present day, Sievicr's life was mercilessly dissected. But Sir James Duke's counsel did not put forward any evidence tending to show that Sieview was guilty of card sharping, pulling Sceptre or other horses, thieving or murdering. Sievier married Iuly Mabel Bruce, sister of the fourth Marquis of Ailcsbury. She had arranged to marry another man but two days prior to the wedding. She ran off with Sievier. "Bob" Sievier, the former owner of Sceptre, is classed as the most daring speculator ever seen on the English turf. W. K. Vanderbilt in May, 1902. was reported to have offered Sievier 5210.000 for Sceptre, winner of the 2,0"u-guinea stakes and of the 1.000-guinea stakes that year. Sievier is well born and well educated and has b"en in turn a bookmaker, artor and man9ger of a betting agency. He has been stranded financially but is now a wealthy landowner and possessor of the best horses on the turf, all acquired with the results cf sensational plunging. Iu his younger days Sievier was h celebri on the turf at Melbourne, where he was a bookmaker until he became involved in a difference with Ijoul Decrhurst. He has traveled in most of the British colonies and Is well known as a dead shot, both in elephant and in lion hunting. Vatican Dm ten Report. ROME, May 11.

(CONCLUDEDFROM FIRST PAGE.) Grand Treasurer Charles" "L. Hutchinson were heard. Without exception the reports of these officers showed the organization to be in the best condition since the year of its organization. Grand Commander Glass said that the year just closed eclipsed all past records in the Increase of membership, there being an increase of sixty-five more this year than at any other time before. Among the changes recommended in the regular order of business Grand Commander Glass advised that the time for the annual election of the, subordinate eommanderies bo changed from December to June. This was thought best because the many festivities attending the Christmas holidays tended to take the time and detract from the interest of the members when the order should receive their greatest consideration. "Elections held just prior to the holidays," he said, "find a great many of our most enthusiastic Sir Knights so engaged that they are deprived of the pleasure and privilege of the meeting and the commandcry does not get the benefit of their presence and assistance at the annual conclave." It was also suggested that the law reQuiring biennial elections be changed, refjuiring inspections once only in three years. Concluding his report Grand Commander Glass paid a tribute to the organization and expressed his hearty appreciation for the many courtesies that had been shown him while In office.

. . . Knights Templars which Is to be held this morning in the Masonic Temple. The officers feel confident that the routine work and the election of olhcers will be over by 1 o'clock. According to the Knights Templars cus tom, one officer succeeds another in order i of rank, and therefore the real contest in . the election is concentrated about that of the warder, which is lowest on the scale of advancement. As the other elections are taken as a matter of course, the following officers will be elected this morning: Fredcrick Glass, of Madison, will become past grand commander, and Charles Goltra, of Crawfordsville, will become grand commander. Vestal "V. "Woodward, of Indianapolis, will become deputy grand commander, and his office of generalissimo will be tilled by N. L. Agnew, of Valparaiso. Oliver Gard, of Frankfort, will become grand captain, and Charles Day, of New Albany, the present junior warden, will be advanced to senior warden. W. R. Hosford. of South Rend, will become junior warden, and Luther Short, of Franklin, will be male standard bearer. John L. Rupe, of Richmond, the warden for whose place the contest will be held, will become the swerd bearer. Several names of prominent Indianapolis Knights Templars are mentioned as likely candidates for warder, but as the election is by ballot, the strength of the candidates is unknown. In all probability Charles L. Hutchinson and Calvin I Prather, of this city, will be re-elected treasurer and grand secretary, respectively. The Knights will re-elect their prelate, Bishop White. The morning session will convene at 8:30 o'clock and the reports of officers and committees will be heard. The main interest in the meeting will be drawn to the reports of various committees which were appointed yesterday. These committees are on necrology, jurisprudence and oh the consideration of the address of the grand commander, Frederick L. Glass. Several changes which the grand commander proposed deserve special attention, and the committee appointed for that purpose will make recommendations. The committee will consider the advisability of changing the time of the elections of the subcommanderies, which are now biennial, to triennial. The proposed change of the time of these elections from December to June will also be considered. Such a change has been proposed that the different corps throughout the State may attend the inspection, the date of which now conflicts with the time of their elections.

General Kuropatkin has sent the following dispatch to the Czar: "Reconnoissances between Salltszaipidza and Feng-Wetig-Cheng failed to discover Japanese troops. A Japanese column of considerable strength advanced from Feng-Wang-Cheng May S in the direction of HaiCheng. Tulen-Cheng station is occupied by our frontier guards .and the damage to the railroad by the Japanese as far as Sanchilipu has been repaired. All the work has been carried out under the supervision of Lieutenant Colonel Splrldonoff, of the Fourth Railroad Battalion. This gallant officer undertook to get through to Port Arthur with a trainload of ammunition which had arrived at Liao-Yang after the landing of the Japanese at Pitsewo. Every preparatlon. was made to blow up the train In case of necessity in order to prevent its falling into the hands of the Japanese. The task was carried out and the selfsacrifice of the men of the Fourth Railroad Battalion was crowned with complete success. "Shortly after 4 o'clock in the afternoon the train arrived at Jin-Shau Station (forty miles from Port Arthur), where it was handed over to General Jokoff, who immediately dispatched it under proper protection to Port Arthur. Lieutenant Colonel Spiridonoff returned on a locomotive. "After landing at Pitsewo the Japanese began marching toward Kin-Chow. The night of May 10 their forward guard, consisting of about two regiments of infantry, passed- the night on the heights above Sanchflipu (on the railroad, about sixty miles from Port Arthur.) "About thirty Japanese vessels are lying north of Cape Terminal (on the east coast of i.he Liao-Tung peninsula below Pitsewo.)" RUSSIANS SAID TO BE DESTROYING WARSHIPS TOKIO, May 11. Admiral Togo reports that since the 6th of May many explosions have been heard coming from the vicinity of Port Arthur, but their cause has not been ascertained. The Impression here is that the Russians, despairing of their ability to defend Port Arthur, are destroying their ships before evacuating the place. CHE-FOO, May 11. An unofficial Japanese dispatch has been received here to the effect that the Russians have destroyed thejr fleet in Port Arthur. ST. PETERSBURG, May 11. The idea that the Russian squadron at Port Arthur is being destroyed to prevent its falling into the hands of the enemy is scouted at the Admiralty. "We are not going to repeat the mistake made at Sebastopol," said Vice Admiral Rojestvensky, commander of the Baltic fleet. "If the worst comes to the worst the squadron will put to sea, engage the enemy and inflict as much damage as possible before going to the bottom. But you can say that it is a little early yet to talk of such desperation." It is Impossible to give an accurate list of the effective Russian warships at Port Arthur, but some-idea of the state of the fleet can be formed from the orScial report of Viceroy Aleileff to Emperor Nicholas concerning the engagement of April 13. in which the Petropavlovek wa sunk and the Pobie'da was seriously damaged. In this report the viceroy said: "The whole effective squadron at Port Arthur sailed out." He then enumerated the first-class battleships Peresviet, Pobieda, Poltava, Petropaviovsk and Sevastopol; the armored cruiser Bayan, the first-class protected cruisers Askold and Blana, the second-class protected cruiser Xovik, two torp?do cruisers and five torpedo boat destroyers. It will therefore be seen that on April 14, the day after the destruction of the Petropavlovsk, the Russians at Port Arthur had available three battleships, one armored cruiser and three protected cruisers, whereas on Feb. 1 they had available at Port Arthur seven battleships, one armored cruiser, five protected cruisers and one torpedo transport. The number of torpedo boats or torpedo boat destroyers effective or disabled la not known. RUSSIAN DEAD ROBBED , BY THE CHINESE LONDON, May 12. The Dally Mall's correspondent at the Japanese headquarters in describing the battle on the Yalu testifies that the Russian position there, if properly held, ought to have been impregnable, even with the sacrifice of ten thousand men. The correspondent says that the battlefield afterwards presented a sickening spectacle, but that the wounded bore their sufferings with the most heroic stoicism. Judging from their disheveled appearance the correspondent infers that the Russians must have been in the trenches for several days. He continues: "The Japanese are showing the greatest kindness to the wounded prisoners, and the captured Russian officers are being treated by the highest among the Japanese as respected guests. In the hour of victory the Japanese soldiers show able restraint and sobriety of demeanor. "A painful Incident or tho Yalu battle was the robbery of the Russian dead and wounded. After th3 action many Chinese roamed the battlefield, stripping the Russians. The Japanese general is greatly grieved and is establishing a system of patrols to check a repltltion of the occurrence, and threatens severe punishment." CASUALTIES AT THE BATTLE OF THE YALU ANTUNG, May 6, via Seoul, May 11.

A Danish Lutheran missionary, the only foreigner living at Antung, read the funeral services over the remains.
