A battle was fought Saturday near Ta-Tche-Kaio, attended, it is believed, with heavy losses. The progref s of the battle was watched by many people in New Chwang from the roofs of the houses. The day was clear and the, 6moke of the guns could be plainly seen. Japaaese Were the Winner. Tien-Tsin, July 25. A report from New Chwnng states that Saturday's battle was at Ta-lIsui-Tong, six miles distant and that the Japanese were successful. Within Ten Miles of Liao-Yang. Chicago, July 25.

The mikado'r men lost 2S0 in the attack. ; Kassians Report an Engagement. St Petersburg, July 23. A badly mutilated dispatch from Ta-clie-Kiao, dated July 20, which has been received here indicates that an engagement or some importance had occurred on the sea coast road between Kai-Chou and YIn-Kow. The dispatch states that the Russians made a night attack on a fortified Japanese camp at Sangoss, on the sea coast north of Kai-Chou, and were barely saved by the arrival or reinforcements at a critical moment. Next day the Russians retreated from their positions, leaving unburied. for want of time, the bodies of fifteen Japanese. BED SEA RAIDING IS STOPPED Busala Accept the British- View of ths Czar's Vol an teer Fleet. Berlin, July 25. The Russian government has ordered the Immediate release of the Hamburg-American line steamship Scandla, which arrived at Suez Saturday flying the Russian naval flag and manned by a Russian naval crew, and a dispatch from Port Said says the vessel has been released. SL Petersburg, July 25. Grand Duke Alexis ' presided at a council which Count Iamsdorff, the foreign secretary, and Vice Admiral Avellan, chief of the admiralty department, and other high naval officers, attended. The result of the conference removes all doubts concerning the present attitude of Russia with regard to the volunteer, fleet. The validity of the view expressed In the British note regarding the Irregularity of the position of the vessels was so far admitted that the council agreed to waive the right of search. . : - After a long discission, .In which Count Lamsdorff took a leading part, it was decided that the present status of the volunteer fleet was not sufficiently well defined according to Inter-' national law to render further searches and seizures advisable, and that, therefore, Russia, in 'the interects of friendly relations with the powers, should withdraw the authority given the volunteer fleet In this respect. Orders have been sent to the volunteer fleet steamers St. Petersburg and Smolensk to refrain from interference with foreign shipping. It is expected these rteamers will eventually Join the Baltic fleet and be replaced by ordinary warships. . BCSS SEIZES SOME MORE SHIPS Vladivostok Squad roo Is Busy, as Well as the Volunteers. Tokio, July 25. The Russian Vladivostok squadron has sunk the British steamer Knight Commander, which it captured off the coast of Izu province. The Knight Commander was from New York. The Russian warships were last reported to the southwest of Cape Iro, Izu province steering to the west. The Vladivostok squadron also captured a Cerman vessel believed to be the Arabia with SO.000 tons of flsur, and an unknown British stesAer. The two vessels were sent to Vladivostok In charge of prize crews. Port Said, July 25. Advices received here say that the Russian volunteer fleet steamer Smolensk fired three blank shots across the bows of the British steamer Anlova, the cargo of which consists of coal and explosives, and the vessel not stopping the Smolensk sent two loaded shots at her, cne of them passing over her amidships, and the other over her stern. The Ardova was then seized and her crew transferred to the. Smolensk. Her

Cargo is from New York, and probably consists of supplies for the United States garrison in the Philippines. This will not involve the United States, however, as the ship flies tho British flag. - ' . STILL ANOTHER NEW PARTY.

To itave a Platform Constructed Like the Farmer's Gopher Trap' "Catch 'Ein , Comin' and Goin. Chicago, July 25. The Continental party of the United States, a political organization, has been Incorporated at Springfield. III., and it is announced that a convention will be held the latter part of August, either in Chicago or Milwaukee, to draft a platform and make nominations for president and vice president. The incorporators are J. P.. -Lynch, Clark Erwin and R. C. Corey, all of Chicago. 'The party is to be made up of Democrats and members of other parties who do not favor Bryan ideas, and who do not care to follow the Democratic party into Wall street," was the statement made by Lynch. . t The platform will have a plank for reciprocity, "and be so constructed that Republicans may join us who are dissatisfied with the high tariff policy of the adminlstraton." . London, July 2(1. Cabling under date o: July 24 The Daily Mall's New Chwang correspondent describes a fourteen-hours desperate battle with heavy losses on both sides, and which resulted in the Russian position at Ta-Tche-Kiao, being rendered untenilble, by reason of which they will be compelled to retreat towards Hal-Cheng. "The battle began at C o'clock in the morning," the correspondent says, "the Russians resuming the attack on the Japanese position, on the heights east of Ta-Tche-Kiad. After a few hours the Japanese left flank from Taiping mountain captured the village of Tanghudituen, compelling the Russians to retreat to Tienghuaituen, six miles from their base. Busslans Forced to Retreat. 4 The Russians, now, reinforced, maintained the position' until 5 oclock in the afternoon, when the Japanese right flank made a sudden appearance on the hills south of Ta-Tche-Kiao and by a tremenderous fire forced the Russians to retreat. The Japanese firing line extended fifteen mils. After two more hours of an incessant storm of shot and shell they swept the last hill and the plain clear of Russians." Report of a Japanese Defeat. London, July. 20. A dispatch to a news agency from Liao-Yang reports heavy artillery fighting there all Sunday. The Russian casualties, it is alleged, were thought not to exceed 400, while the Japanese are said to have lost .more men. The Japanese, who were attacking the "southern detachment," according to the dispatch, were forced to retire precipitately, leaving their dead and wounded on the field. The dispatch lacks convincing details and names of places. TParle near Similar News. Paris, July 20. A dispatch to. The Matin from New Chwang says that heavy firing continued all day long on July 24. The battle lasted for sixteen hours. The Russians were driven back on the east side and were reported to be utterly routed on the north. The dispatch says that the Russians evacuated New Chwang, of which the Japanese will probably take possession today.

Later Xhe volunteer fleet vessels will be re-commissioned. London, July 20. The foreign office has received news of the sinking of the British steamer Knight Commander, and has instructed the British consul at Yokohama to make a full investigation of the case and report at one to Downing street. Until his report is received no action will be taken. The foreign office regrets the incident as coming at an unfortunate time in connection with public opinion here, but the officials refrain from all comment pending receipt of details. John Bull Detains a Vessel. London, July 20.

T Irr Spite of a Strikers' Ultimatum They Are Ready to Negotiate Disputes. NEW DEMANDS BY DONNELLY Employers Deny That They Have Violated Last Week's Agreement. Any trouble Could IIav Been AdJusted, They Say Bloodshed at St. Joseph, Mo. Five "Wounded. , C Chicago, July 23. The Joint council of the teamsters' union has refused to sanction the decision of packing house teamsters to Joina sympathetic strike, and instead appointed a committee to communicate with the packers In an effort to open peace negotiations. Chicago, July 23. Attempts to settle the second strike of the packing trades have faiU-d. :ind th butchers' union and allied orernnUa Hons, after a long conference, sent an -lltiinatnm to the representatives of tbe packers demanding a settlement of the strike before this morning on penalty of a general walkout of all union employes at work In the stock yards. Two conferences between representatives of the allied trades and the packers and the butchers, which adjourned failed to reach an agreement. Packers Offers to Right Any Wrong. The packers expressed a desire to live up to the terms of the arbitration agreement reached last Wednesday right any wrongs that might have been committed by their foremen and superintendents and announced to the union men the name of Samuel McLean, of the National Tacking company to represent them on the arbitration board provided for in the agreement which settled the original strike. Union Makes New Demands. The union men refused positively to consider the agreement valid, declaring that it had been broken bv the packers. They then retired to the office of the Federation of- Iibor, where an ultimatum to the packers was prepared under the direction of Michael J. Donnelly and others. The ultimatum declares that the packers violated the agreement and then demands that all the strikers be taken back, within ten days and that all strikers employed in the killing, cutting and casing departments be re-employed within fortyeight hours, on penalty of a general strike if all employes of the packing r houses. Reply of the Packers. The packers replied to tlw foregoing that they emphatically deny that there has been any violation of the agreement on their part, and that there were no deviations therefrom, but what might, have been os peeled under the . circumstances, and could have been readily adjusted; that Donnelly's action was eniiviv unjust'hed; that the packers hl a definite agree ment with their employes and are ready to carry out the same. GENERAL STRIKE DECLARED All Bands Except Teamsters Walk Oat of tho Yards. The general strike of packing house employes was duly called and executed, all hands except the teamsters quitting work. The packing houses had been making preparations for the walk-out, in view of the fact that no answer was made to the reply of the packers to Donnelly's charges. Four train loads of new men ' were landed at the packing houses yesterday and other train loads came In before this morning. All the clerical force was initiated into new duUes; stockades were erected to protect the workers from mobs, while policemen were on guard everywhere. The packers claimed to have neaTly 5,000 men with which to start operations. These men were distributed among the different plants as follows: Armour & Co., 1.5UO; Swift & Co., 1,300; Nelson Morris & Co., 900; the Ilammond Packing company, 200; Anglo-American company, 700; Llbby, McNeil & Llbby, 300. . A settlement of the strike may. . be , insisted upon by Mayor Harrison if developments show that the public interest absolutely demands it. In the meantime arbitration through the good offices of the mayor Is a remedy open to the opposing sides on request from either. Such was the position outlined by the mayor, who was called back to Chicago from Marquette, Mich.s on account of the renewal of the strike. XEGBU RESENTS AN ASSAULT rim lato His Assailants with a dan. Mortally Wonndlof One of Them. St. Joseph, Mo., July 25.

They are: Joe Welgle, shot in abdomen, may die: John Jetta, shot In body and -legs; Joe Sanger, wounded in thigh and legs; August Newmeyer, shot In legs; Steve Finnlgan, shot In legs. Kruse was arrested by" the police and is in the county Jail. He fired but one shot. The weapon was a magazJne shotgun loaded with buckshot. There had been continued turbulence on the part of the strikers, and numerous as-' saults on the men at work ever since the renewing of the strike Saturday. The strikers say they were iot Interfering with Kruse; that they were not even speaking to him, and that he fired on them from inside the packing house lines, after passing close to the pickets. Kruse says he was attacked and did not lire until he believed escape was impossible, and he thought he would be killed. John H.

Zumbaugb, ne q of nw q of s 18 t 32 r 2; $1, Warsaw Shrouded in Gloom. The Warsaw Times says the whole city mourns tbe loss of two of its best citizens. So far as the editor of this paper can recollect and be has been a resident of the town since 1845 nothing has ever occurred in the place that so sensibly schocked every one of its citizens from the youngest to the eldest of its residents as the calamity that befell it in the almost instantaneous deaths of City Marshal William H. Funk and City Engineer J. V. Godman, which took place at about 3:30 o'clock on Monday afternoon. A fire alarm rung at that hour, but everybody supposed that' instead of the announcement of a fearful calamity, it was only the usual call announcing the breaking out of a fire. When it became known, as it did in a very few minutes, that it recorded the death of two of our city officers, each of whom was held in the highest esteem, thewhole town was turned to tears and lamentation not only for the two men who had lost their lives, but in sympathy for . the bereaved women, who in a moment bad been made widows, and also for tbe children who had suddenly become fatherless. It was; not only the sudden berefting of two families of tbeir principal support, but it was a calamity that fell upon all the citizens of tbe town, one and all alike. It can truthfully be said that bad some one been designed- to select two of tbe citizens as well as officials of the town who could be least spared, it would have been tbe two who so suddedly met tbeir death in the interest of the city as City Engineer Godman and City Marsball Funk. Both were young men with all their future before them. Each In tbe respective positions they filled at the time of their sudden taking off bad won the esteem and the high regard of every citizen of the town they were serving as public officials, and it is not out of place to say that the hearts of the people were wrung in a measure and to an extent they never were before in the history of the town. McKinley' Sentiment!. Now come tbe republicans assembled in national convention In 1904, and they virtually incorporate McKinley 's words in their platform of principles, as follows: "We have extended widely our foreign markets, and we believe in the adoption of all practicable methods for their further extension, including commercial reciprocity wherever reciprocal arrangements can be perfected Consistent with the principles of protection and without injury to American industry." Exactly tbe sentiments of President McKinley, three years ago, . They are just as good today as they were then, and abate nothing of ths belief In the protective tariff principle advocated by the republicans. Women love a clear, healthy complexion.

FÜLL STORY IS TOLD

Inez Record Tells of Her Abduc tion by Two Men, One of Them White. WAS THREATENED WITH DEATH Unless She Would Go to St. LouisSupposed Dead Man Is - Alive Notes. Indianapolis, July 23. Inez Record, the 18-yeaT-old girl who was found in an unconscious condition by a searching party at the side of a country road last Tuesday night, has revived suffificiently to give her father a detailed account of her adventures. Her story supplements the statements made last Thursday to her sweetheart, when she temporarily revived from a long period of unconsciousness. Immediately after making the statement she suffered a relapse, and since then no one had been allowed to question her. White Man Did the Talking. . She reiterates her first story that a white man accompanied by a negro entered the house while she was writing a letter. Seizing her they bound and gagged her and placed her In a buggy, where she says she fainted. When she revived she was being carried Into the woods. There the men told her that she must go to St. Louis With them, and that if she refused she would be killed. While telling her of their purpose the white man, who did the talking, held a revolver at her temple. Miss Record says she told the men they could kill her, but she would not go. Taken Into the Woods Again. She was then carried to the buggy and driven by a circuitous route, she thinks, until within a short distance of where she wa3 found. Again she was taken into the woods, where the white man renewed his threats to take her to St. Louis. Finally, the girl says, he offered her $1,000 is she would go. When she refused a- knife was drawn across her throat with the threat that it would cut deeper if she did not consent to go. On hearing her refusal she was carried for some distance and lowered into .water, waistdeep, several times. After this she says she says she remembers nothing. She describes the white man as large and powerful, and wearing a slouch hat. Her recollection of the appearance of the negro is vague.

One of the really strong men of the nation is Justice Brewer, of the United States supreme court. -In a recent speech before a select New York audience be made an eloquent plea for the preservation of the spirit of education and of religion. Among other things he said. We are facing today, among other dangers, the dangers of the material development of this country. It is one of the phenomena which attracts the attention of all our skyscrapers, our tunnels, our magnificent steamboats and railroads. I am not here to say aught against this magnificent deelopment. But it is only the means to an end. We don't live to make bricks and mortar, and skyscrapers. You can go on to the banks of tbe Nile, nnd there see pyramids that are greater wonders than our skyscrapers, but they tell of nothing done for humanity. Tbe only thing tbat can save this country from the . destiny that destroyed the nations of the past Is to put into tbe life of the people the feeling that all this development is for tbe building up of our manhood and our womanhood.
