my MVAL FLAWS Hov the Mikado's Fleet Is Divided for Offensive Purposes. IN SEVEN SQUADRONS The 3iajority of These Keep an ISye cn Port Arthur, the Others Are Divided. Two Squadrons Are Cruising BeI tween Northern Korea and Vladivostock. London, April 7. A Seoul correspondent says he learns from a Japanese sailor who participated in the attacks on Port Arthur that the Japanese fleet is divided into seven squadrons. Four of these are watching Port Arthur, the fifth patrols the Korean coast, and the sixth and seventh cruise between Vladivostok and north Japan. Two torpedo boats were much damaged in the engagements, but otherwise the fleet was little injured. The damages to the Japanese cruisers Iwate and Yoshino have been repaired and the vessels have joined the fleet. A Wei Hai Wei correspondent says Russian warships are patrolling the gulf of Pechili, and that the London Times steamer was stopped and searched thirty miles outside of Port Arthur yesterday. A Tien Tsin correspondent says Paul Lessar, Russian minister to China, has protested to the Chinese government against the presence of Japanese instructors with the Chinese army, which he regards as a violation of neutrality. A correspondent has had an interview with a high personage closely connected with the emperor of Korea, who left his native land because of the administrative reforms introduced through the influence of the Japanese. Apparently reflecting the views of the emperor, this personage said: "I saw the Japanese action. It is an attempt to apply to Korea the policy which the British have adopted in India. My country has reason to sympathize with the Russians, knowing the justice of their policy toward the natives of Amur, where many Koreans labor." The sailors of the fleet who distinguished themselves in the recent Japanese attacks were decorated with the Cross of St. George by Vice Admiral Makaroff in the presence of Grand Duke Cyril, cousin of the emperor. Vice Admiral Makaroff's leadership has inspired the men of the fleet with the highest confidence and love. People arriving trorn Liao Yang report that the troops are impatient to attack the Japanese. The soldiers say they did not come east to lie on their backs, and that it is time to march. The Novi Krai suggests that necessary measures be taken to prevent those epidemics which are usually the accompaniment of war. 8ighted the Enemy. Port Arthur, April 7. The Russian battleship Peresviet reports that she Bighted the enemy today in Kwan Tung waters. All is quiet here. SANTO DOMINGAN AFFAIRS Morales Protests Against Activity of Jiminez. Cape Haytien, April 7. President Morales of Santo Domingo has arrived here on his way to Port au Prince to request that the government of Hayti prevent General Jiminez from landing war supplies on Haytien soil. It is reported on good authority that General Jiminez's departure from the scene of his operations was lor the purpose of seeking money and supplies and, the report .says, he will return in a few days. Before leaving General Jiminez left General Demetrio Rodriguez in command of the revolutionary troops. General Clenavarro has been captured and is imprisoned at Monte Cristi. President Morales says that he greatly fears Generals Guellito and Picardo, who are advancing with strong forces. An Interesting Party. Newport News, Va., April 7. General Cronje and 200 Boers, accompanied by 120 British soldiers who saw service in the Boer war, fifty women and children and twenty Zulus, Kaffirs and Zambesis, have arrived here on the steamship Doune Castle from Cape Town. The burghers in the party were with Cronje at Paardeburg. General Viljoen awaits JLhe party at St. Louis. Restrictions Removed. Washington, April 7. The following bulletin has been posted at the navy department: "The restriction of the battleship squadron of the Philippines has been withdrawn, and the commander-in-chief authorized to permit his squadron to cruise with discretion, not going north of Fuchau on the Asiatic coast. Counterfeit From the Orient. Seat lie, Wash., April 7. Counterfeit talf and quarter dollars are being manufactured in China and shipped through Seattle into the United States. The imitation is very nearly perfect. The coin is of the standard degree of fineness, the weight is from one to ten grains short and the design Is almost perfect. .

SNAP JUDGMENT

Is What Hearst Followers Charga Against "Reorganizers." Indianapolis, April 7. Oscar Henderson, manager of the Hearst boom, and others who are connected with the movement, are continuing the charge that snap judgment was taken in calling the primaries for Friday afternoon to name the delegates to the state convention. They are not very hopeful of winning anything here or in the Fourth district, where Chairman O'Brien resides, but elsewhere they have strong hopes. They are not, however, specifying any of the districts they expect to carry. Henderson was asked today to name .some of their candidates for delegates, but he said he would not make any names known for several days. It is possible they will have candidates for delegates at large in fact Henderson says they will have candidates all along the line. At this time both sides are manifesting a desire to Keep the names of their candidates from the public, probably in hopes of getting their fences securely built before "the other fellow" catches on to what has been done. Democratic National Committeeman Taggart was here again today. He met Chairman O'Brien, J. G. McNutt of Terre Haute, chairman of the Fifth district, and several other party leaders. The boss's smile is more genial than ever, and he is not the least bit worried lest the Hearst forces undo his organization and capture the Indiana delegation. At the Hearst headquarters it was said today that a candidate may-be brought out against Taggart for . national chairman. He does not care if he does have opposition from the Hearst crowd, as he does not fear the result. Taggart is not boasting as to what the organization will do in the way of electing delegates, but he is very confident that the state will be for Parker. The Taggart organization is very strong here, and it will not have to do much work to carry a sufficient number of wards to control things. The names of the men who have been selected by the organization to stand as candidates for deleates here have not been disclosed. It seems that the agents of the Hearst presidential boom are not gaining much ground among the real leaders of the party in this state. It was naturally expected that men like Senator Cyrus E. Davis of Bloomfleld would favor Hearst. He was a most enthusiastic Bryanite. During the last two sessions of the legislature he lost no opportunities to stand up for the principles of the Chicago and Kansas City platforms, but during a visit here today he declared that he is against Hearst. He does not regard the latter as a true exponent of Bryanism, and he does not expect that Hearst will get the loyal support of the Bryanites. The Second has been regarded as one of the strongest Bryan districts, yet it is now in line with Parker, according to the statement of many wellknown politicians. It will hold its congressional convention at Spencer next Thursday. Davis was looked upon for J a long time as a possible opponent o! Representative Miers of Bloomington, but he says that Miers will have no opposition. DISAPPOINTMENT PROMISED Seats for State Convention Will Be Limited. Visitors Indianapclis, April 7. There will be many disappointed people during the Republican state convention because of their inability to get seats. Chairman Goodrich and Secretary Sims are anxious to furnish every one of ' the visitors with tickets but the number will have to be limited. Since the last convention a great pipe organ has been erected at the back of the stage making it impossible to build the elevated platform that was so convenient in other conventions. Then a sort of elevated tier of seats has been erected under the balconies curtailing the floor space which was formerly given to the delegates and alternates. There will be 1,488 delegates and as many alternates, so if they should all appear they would take up nearly the entire space. Then the local and visiting newspaper men must be provided for. Secretary Sims, who is looking after the arrangements for the convention says he is "up against it" for space and that he don't know how he is going to make out. Can't Get Together. Terre Haute, Ind., April 7. The subscale committee of the miners and operators of the Indiana district has adjourned, to meet again at the call of th officers of the miners' and operators' organizations. The adjournment was due to the failure of the miners to conform to the Indianapolis agreement to work pending an agreement upon the scale. The operators made the point that before the miners' officers assumed to make a scale for the men they had better demonstrate their authority over them. The officers of the miners will go over the district, explain the situation to the men and get them back to work. It is said that while an agreement has not yet been reached, that the members of the committee are approaching an agreement. Most of the operators have left town. Insolvency Is Alleged. Chicago, April 7. All the business and assets of the S. D, Kimbaric company, one of the largest wholesale hardware firms in Chicago, have been placed in the hands of a receiver by Judge Kohlsaat of the United States district court. This action followed the filing of a petition by three credl1 tors of the firm, alleging insolvency.

MAKES IT BINDING

President Smith of Morm6n Church Issues Manifesto on Polygamy. DENIES LATE REPORTS Bays That the Church Does Not Sanction Plural Marriages and Provides Penalties. Church Indorses His Joins in Resolve to Offenders. Edict Punish and Salt Lake City, Utah, April 7. A notable feature of the closing session of the 74th annual conference of the Mormon church was the official declaration by President Joseph F. Smith on the subject of polygamy. The statement follows: "Inasmuch as there are numerous reports in circulation that plural marriages have been entered into contrary to the official declaration of President Woodruff of Sept. 26, 1890, commonly called the manifesto, which was issued by President Woodruff and adopted by the church at its general conference, Oct. 6, 1890, which forbids any marriage violative of the law of the land, I, Joseph F. Smith, president of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints, hereby affirm and declare that no such marriages have been solemnized with the sanction, consent or knowledge of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and "I hereby announce that all such marriages are prohibited," and if any officer or member of the church shall assume to solemnize or enter into any such marriage he will be deemed in transgression against the church and will be liable to be dealt with according to the rules and regulations thereof and excommunicated therefrom." This statement received the full indorsement of the church members assembled, who unanimously adopted the following resolution introduced by Apostle Francis M. Lyman: "Resolved, That we, the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, in general conference assembled, hereby approve and endorse the statement and declaration of President Joseph F. Smitn, just made to this conference concerning plural marriages, and will support the courts of the church in the enforcement thereof." , A committee was authorized to take steps toward the erection of a suitable building as a monument to the memory of the prophet Joseph Smith. Although Utah abounds with memorials of Brigham Young, there is at present not a single monument or building in honor of the founder of the church. ENTHUSIASTIC GREETING Given Members of Canal Commission by President Amadore. Panama, April 7. The members of the United States canal commission received an enthusiastic welcome on their arrival here from Colon. They were met at the railroad station by a REAR ADMIRAL JOHN G. WALKER. . Chairman Panama canal commission. number of special representatives of the government of the republic. At the palace the meeting between Presi dent Amadore and the American com mlssloners was most cordial, and the commissioners were entertained at luncheon by the president. After the luncheon the members of the commis slon went to La Boca, from which point they returned to Colon. Coal Strike Threatened. Louisville, Ky., April 7. The con ference between the, delegates repre senting the Kentucky coal miners and operators, to which President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers was a party, eaded in a disagreement and a strike seems inevitable. Despite the efforts of President Mitchell to bring them together, each side held to its original terms, the miners demanding the full Indianapolis scale, and the ODerators demanding an average re duction of 4 per cent. A $200,000 Blaze. York, Pa., April 7. Fire of unknown origin today totally destroyed the large plant of the York Carriage company entailing a loss of about $200,000, part ly covered by insurance. Two hundred and sixty men are thrown out of work Several adjoining properties were damacfid.

THE LYNCH EH AUN CASS Points Involve Interpretation of Extra dition Treaty. Washington, April 7. Argument Is

being heard in the case of Thomas Walsh, or James Lynchehaun, involving an Interpretation of the extradition treaty with Great Britain. Lynchehaun is an Irishman ' who, while reBiding on Achill Island in 1894, made a murderous assault on his landlady, Mrs. Agnes McDowell, and was sentenced to imprisonment for life. Escaping in 1903, he came to the United States. When arrested in Indianap olis, Ind., he denied his identity, but the courts held that h had not succeeded in establishing that he was not the man wanted. The United States commissioner, however, refused the man's extradition on the ground that the crime was political and therefore not extraditable under the treaty. The question before the supreme court, therefore, deals especially wit'i the character of offense. The case was argued for Lynchehaun by Ferdinand Winter and for the British government by Charles Fox. Mr. Fox contended that the crime was in the nature of an ordinary assault with intent to kill, while Mr. Winter argued that it was the result of resentment against landlordism in general and therefore political. Arbitration Was Successful. New York, April v. The emergency committee of the Building Trades Employers association has ratified the resolution adopted by the general arbitration board. This resolution pro vided that 15,000 bricklayers on strike should return to work pending arbitration of all existing differences. The bricklayers' delegates were parties to the agreement. The Laborers' Union Protective society, through its council, also decided to accept the terms of the resolution, and an order has been issued to members of the laborers' union to return to work at once. Wants to Avert Bloodshed. London, April 7. Indian Secretary Brodrick has received a dispatch from Colonel Younghusband, the poltical agent with the -British expedition into Tibet, in which the colonel says he expects to reach Gyangtse (1C0 miles from Lhassa, the capital of Tibet) within a week, and there meet the Chinese representatives and high Tibetan officials and make a settlement by which further bloodshed will be prevented. State Senator on Trial. Grand Rapids, Mich., April 7. A jury has been secured in the superior court for the trial of State Senator David E. Burnes. The defendant is charged with accepting a bribe of $200 to influence legislation at Lansing in connection with the Lake Michigan water deal, which resulted recently in sensational disclosures of municipal corruption. Double Bank Failure. Marshalltown, la., April 7. The Ex change Bank of Dow City and the Bank cf Buck Grove, Crawford county, have failed with reported total lia bilities of half a million dollars and assets of only $150,000. Both banks are owned by E. H. Greene of Dow City. Appeal in Good Cause. ' Cleveland, O., April 7. The Marcus A. Hanna memorial chair of political science association has sent out 10,000 letters of appeal for contributions to that cause. The letters are being sent to nearly every prominent city in the United States. Motion for New Trial . St. Louis, April 7. A motion for a new trial in the case of ' Lord" F.
