FAILED TO BURST

Lyddite Shells Poured Into . Vladivostock Do Little Damage. A SUNDAY ENGAGEMENT Japanese Fleet Suddenly Appears Off Important Russian Port and Opens Heavy Fire. For Some Reason the Sheila Fail Explode and the Ammunition AVas Wasted. to Action Thought to be Effort Japan's Part to Expose the Enemy's Position. on Vladivostock, March 7. A fleet of five Japanese battleships and two cruisers appeared off this place at 1:25 o'clock Sunday afternoon and bombarded the town and shore batteries for fiiiy-five minutes. The fleet approached from the direction of Askold Island, at the east entrance to Ussuri bay and about thirty-two miles southeast of Vladivostock. Entering Usuri bay the enemy formed in line of battle, but did not approach to a closer range than a mile and one-third. They directed their fire against the shore batteries and the town, but no damage resulted, as most of 'their 200 lyddite shells failed to burst. The Russian batteries, commanded by Generals Veronetz and Artamonoff, did not reply, awaiting a closer ap proach of the enemy. The Japanese lire ceased at 2:20 p. m. and the enemy retired in the direction of Askold Island. Simultaneous two torpedo boat destroyers appeared near Askold Island and two more near Cape Maidel. The Japanese ships were covered with ice. The attack resulted in no loss to the Russians, but cost the enemy 200,000 roubles ($100,000) in ammunition. Most of the projectiles were Bix and twelve inch shells. The population of Vladivostock was warned Sunday morning of the presence on the horizon of a hostile fleet and the prospect of attack during the day but it remained tranquil. Official Report of It. St. Petersburg, March 7. A communication from Viceroy Alexieff to the czar from Mukden bearing Sunday's date, says: "I most humbly inform your majesty that the commandant at the fortress at Vladivostock reports that at 8:50 this morning seven vessels were sighted south of Askold islands. At 9:45 they were seen to be war ships making for Askold island. About noon the enemy's squadron was midway beween the coast and Askold island, making for Ussuri oay. They were out of reach of the shore batteries. At 1:30 the enemy opened fire. Two vessels in the squadron were probably the first class cruisers Id;: urn and Yakumo, but the names of the other vessels are unknown." OBJECT OF mTTACK Probable That Japs Wanted to Test Enemy's Position. St. Petersburg, March 7. Official dispatches received here concerning the bombardment of vladivostock by a Japanese fleet Sunday afternoon do not mention any Russian losses, but private advices say that five were killed, four sailors and the wife of an engineer. It is apparent that the Japanese were afraid to risk exposing their ships to the plunging fire of the land batteries, and it is considered probable here that the attack was really for the purpose of drawing the fire of the Russian forts, compelling the Russians to disclose the position and caliber of their guns, and also for the purpose of ascertaining whether the Russian squadron is in port. If this was the object of the Japanese it is believed to have failed signally, as the batteries did not fire a shot, and if the squadron is in port it could not be seen from the Japanese position in the bay of Ussuri on account of the high land which rises from the coast on that side, obstructing the view of the harbor. Rnssia Squadron Not Located. London, March 7. Only Russian reports on the bombardment of Vladivostock have yet been received, and these give no indication as to whether the Russian squadron is still there. According to a report from Tokio the squadron was seen off Gensan, Korea, last Thursday, but on this point there is no reliable information. . Speculation, however, mostly inclines to the belief that the Russian squadron is not in port at Vladivostock, as neither the official nor other reports of the bombardment mention Russian battleships. Port Arthur dispatches of Saturday and Sunday say that everything is quiet there and on the Liao Tung peninsula. Russians Fortifying Antung. Tokio, March 7. The Russians are briskly fortifying Antung which Is believed they will make a base for resistance. Scouts near Anju are being withdrawn towards Kasan.

"ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS"

This Is the Slogan That Is Now Re sounding Through Indiana. Indianapolis, March 7. The growth of sentiment in favor of the Fairbanks vice-presidential boom seems to be very rapid throughout the state. It is significant now of the public feeling that the Republicans are openly indorsing Senator Fairbanks. At the county convention at Lafayette he was enthusiastically commended for the nomination. "Roosevelt and Fairbanks" already seems to be an attractive slogan throughout the state. Senator Fairbanks' friends for a long time were opposed to him being seriously considered for vice-president, but they seem to have made up their minds that he should take it, as the country regards him as the logical candidate. An item 'almost buried in one of the local papors has caused considerable discussion among Republican leaders. It was to the effect that the Hon. John K. Gowdy, consul-general to Paris, has asked the state department at Washington for a leave of absence so that he may come home. "Oom Jack" Gowdy, as he was widely known when he was chairman of the Republican state committee in 1894 and 1896 was appointed consul-general under the first McKinley administration and reappointed four years ago. He has made an excellent official but it has developed since he applied for a leave of absence that there is a determined feeling among many party leaders in Indiana that he should give up the position voluntarily and permit the next administration to name some one else. The feeling is so strong that it may be stated that a hard fight will be made if necessary to prevent him securing the place again. However, "Oom Jack" will receive a cordial welcome when he returns, for he has been away eight years. Senator Albert J. Beveridge spent Sunday here. He expects to leave tonight for Washington. He has been working hard as usual but he is looking well and is in excellent spirits. He has been engaged for several days in hearing the testimony in the case of Senator Smoot of Utah whose ad mittance to the senate is strenuously opposed because of his religious convictions. Senator Beveridge is naturally deeply interested in the Alaskan question as he is chairman ot the committee which has it in charge. The matter will be called up during the present week. The senator is much pleased with the enthusiastic endorsement he is receiving throughout the state. Party leaders are beginning to hear a clamor from over the state because no final decision has been rendered in the case to test the constitutionality of the legislative apportionment act. The various counties are anxious to make their nominations but are hesitating because they may have to do the work over if the candidates are named now and the act is later held void by the supreme court. It is the general impression that the act will be set aside but as long as there is any uncertainty only a few nominations will be made. Both parties aro anxious to have the matter determined as soon as possible. PORTRAIT IN EVIDENCE Prosecutor in Gordon Forgery Case Scores a Point. Portland, Ind., March 7 Prosecutor Roscoe D. Wheat has scored a point in the Gordon forgery case. He succeeded in inducing Gordon to identify the picture of Robert K. Knox, now held at Columbus, O., as the man who had given him the raised checks of $1,500 and $5,000 to cash. An affidavit with the picture attached was then drawn up and the signature of the prisoner, H. B. Gordon, was attached to die affidavit. Gordon at first hesitated about signing it. This places such strong evidence against Knox that probably it will be impossible for him to secure release from prison at Columbus, on habeas corpus, while the return of Governor Herrick is awaited. Gordon was arraigned before Justice Lewis and waived examination. Bond was placed at $10,000, in default of which he was remanded to the jail to await the action of the grand jury. Trains at Last Released. Lewistown, Mont., March 7. Threa stalled trains on the Montana railway, after three weeks, have been found between Harlowton and Ubel and two trains are tied up near Summit. The passengers, about twenty in all, were rescued by stages, which shoveled a path over the hills to the track. Snow plows are unable to buffet the billiards and nothing but a thaw will open the road. Evansville Again Has Water. Evansvii.e, Ind., March 7. The water famine in Evansville ended when the new intake pipe that is to do service until general repairs can be made at the water works, was commissioned, giving the city its old-time supply of water. The authorities say that all danger is now at an end. A regular Intake is to be constructed, but will not be completed Until next summer. Child Caught by Streetcar. Indianapolis, March 7. While spinning his top on the street in company with several of his companions, James Kavanaugh, jr., aged six, son of James Kavanaugh, G12 East Ohio street, was run over by an east-bound East Michigan street car and Instantly killed.

SOLDIERY OF JAPAN

Rapidity and Efficiency of the Mikado's Army. FBAKOE AUD GERMANY ITS TUTOES Mixed Or! Kin Reflected In the Army's Carli Japanese Seem to Iio Everything at the Doable and Msrht With a. Speed of Downright Eagerness. Their Buttery Drill Amusingly Quick. Tradition is stronger than fact. Despite the lessons of the struggle with China and the yet more recent lessons of the Boxer uprising, some of us are still thinking of Japan at arms as a fit subject for comic opera. Japan evolved too suddenly. We cannot get the picture of the dazzling feudal warrior out of our minds. It is scarcely more than thirty years s!,"-o disappearedthat 'iridesct r w r beetle," with his awful war : his lacquer armor, his nnck:.; . ider c:.:;:ic v his gorgeous dragon embroideiw . his fan! And already we are asked to believe in an eminently modern, occidental, natty and thoroughly practical standing army of Japan an arnij which might march through any town of continental Europe without being remarked as foreign. It was a long step from a hereditary class of gentlemen fighters to a modern army organization, says the Boston Transcript However, when, in 1SG8, the Flowery Kingdom set out to make itself over it did not stick at trifles. Away went the daimios, the feudal lords and with them their soldier retainers. No longer should it be said that in Japan to be a gentleman one must fight and to tight one must be a gentleman. Universal conscrip-' tion set the ricksha wman instantly upon a level with the haughty samurai and the shopkeeper upon a level with both. What Europe did in a century or two Japan did at one neat skip. Wanting a military system, Japan did not wait to develop it, but quietly took possession of the military system of France. Later on she went to school to Germany, and the resultant army is part German and part French. The mixed oricrin is reflected in the army garb. The emperor's bodyguard serves in the full uniform of the French lancers, and the emperor himself wears the scarlet kepi and trousers of a French officer. But all other arms of the service go clad like the Germans in dark blue, with distinguishing bands of red or black or yel low on their flat German forage cups. The Japanese drill is German;- the gymnastics are German; the discipline is German. Yet it is far from commonplace. After all, a system is not an army. There is the common soldier to be accounted for. Drill him, dress him, discipline him how you will, he remains a Japanese under his skin, and like a Japanese only he fights. Mobility one would expect of him, and that he has it was proved in the war with China. As the Japs march, so they fight. Says George Lynch, who watched them with the allies in China: "It is simply wonderful how quickly they move. They seem to do everything at the double." It is the speed not of nervousness, but of downright eagerness. They fight for fighting sake. When they charge, they break into a brisk, impatient trot, chanting in step time, "Itehi-nih. itchi-nih" ("one-two, onetwo") to balance them for the final run, which they deliver, shouting, with a great, glad alacrity. Never were such hilarious fighters. Says Lynch, "My goodness, how they did enjoy it!" All this is true of the foot soldiers. For the Japanese cavalry not so much can be said. The Jap is not built for horsemanship; like the Scotchman who could not get into the highbinders, "he hasna the legs." His riding is bad. Captain Younghusband says that the pony Is usually master of the situation. The horses are small, vicious and slow. In shock tactics they would be practically useless. Considered as mounted infantry it is all very well, but as cavalrywell, frankly, it is contemptible. Not so the artillery, or at least that part of it which depends upon the men. Like their maneuvers afoot, their battery drill is amazingly quick. Norman describes them in action: "Two batteries came up at a gallop with perfect steadiness, wheeled, halted, unlimbered, came into 'action front,' loaded and fired with a smartness and coolness and rapidity that could hardly have been excelled." A good soldier is twice as valuable If he has good care, and this, among other things military, the Japanese have learned. Everything which goes to make for the efficiency of the troops is scrupulously attended to. The rations are of the simplest rice, dried fish, soy and sometimes meat but they are always ample aiul always the best of their kind. The medical corps could give points to Europe. Japanese camps are singularly free from contagious disease, and the army physicians have done valuable pioneer work in bacteriology. As for the hospitals, no one can say enough in their praise. As for administrative detail, Japan manages that with the nicety of clockwork. The transport is unbelievably perfect. Japanese camp stuff packs into one-third less space than the outfit of any other army, and if always turns up on time. The commissariat is wonderfully efficient. The intelligence department has sown the whole cast with its spies. Its maps are miracles of accuracy. The field telegraph, though its poles are bamboo, is every bit as practical as if managed, by Europeans. The engineers and sappers do their work in masterly fashion. Nothing Is wanted to make the Japanese army a powerful fighting machine.
