St. Petersburg, April 20. —Viceroy Alexieff has applied by telegraph to the emperor to be relieved of his po sition of viceroy in the far east. It Is expected that the request will be im mediately granted. The immediate cause of the vice roy's application is reported to be the appoin»ment of Vice Admiral Skryd loff, one of Admiral Alexieff's strong est enemies and sharpest critics, as successor to the late Vice Admiral Makaroff in command of the Russian navy in the far east. Vice Admiral Skrydloff had an in terview with the emperor yesterday and discussed with his majesty the question of his (Skrydloff's) relations with Alexieff. Skrydloff has not hesitated in talk ing to his friends to charge Alexieff with responsibility for the disasters to the Pacific squadron by his division of the fleet, which segregated four armored cruisers at Vladivostok and stationed the Variag and Korietz at Chemulpo. It is said that Vice Admiral Skryd loff in his interview yesterday let his majesty understand that he does not care to assume command of the fleet until Alexieff has withdrawn. There fore the two men will not meet at Port Arthur. FLANK MOVEMENT BY JAPS. St. Petersburg, April 21. —What may turn out to be the anticipated flanking movement of 'the Japanese troops is the appearance of a number of Japanese ships off Potinsa, near the Gulf of Ching-Tai Tse, as re ported to the emperor Wednesday by !len. Kuropatkin. Military experts ( >ere have long regarded that vicinity is the probable point of disembarka tion of the second Japanese expedi tion. It is not far away from Taiku shan (12 miles to the east) and con nects by road with Port Arthur, (150 •niles to the southwest) and Feng Huan Cheng (50 miles to the north west), where the Russians will make their most obstinate resistance. Though the Japanese are building entrenchments on the Yalu, it is be lieved that they will advance soon. The arrangements for a turning movement are complete and experts say that such a movement could properly begin at Takushan, as Feng Huan lies at the angle of an equilate ral triangle, with Takushan and the mouth of the Yalu as the base of the triangle. The Japanese disembarkation will undoubtedly be covered by a warship and the Russians recognize that it will be impossible to prevent it. "We will strike after they have landed," grimly said a member of the general staff. Gen. Kuropatkin is aware of the •strategic importance of the vicinity of Takushan and it is understood that he has made his arrangements ac cordingly. Paris, April 21. —The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Journal says a friend of Gen. Kuropatkin has re-1 ceivea a letter from him in which the i general says he Intends to await the arrival of another hundred thousand men before risking a battle with the Japanese. Seoul, April 21.—The Japanese au thorities here admit that constant skirmishing is occurring between the .opposing armies on the Yalu river. ' MANY RUSSIANS DROWNED. London, April 22. —A correspondent of the Times cabling from New chwang says that a messenger has ar rived there from the Yalu river with the information that the Russians are fleeing north across the river in over crowded boats and are losing hun dreds by drowning. St. Petersburg, April 22. —The ad miralty intends to fit out two ships purchased from Germany, which formerly were in the trans-Atlantic service, together with a number of ships of the volunteer fleet, with rapid fire guns, and send them to the Pa cific to prey upon Japanese commerce Harbin, Manchuria, April 22. —The two officers of Japanese general staff who were arrested 18 miles from this place on April G, were found guilty by court-martial and sentenced Convicted of Forgery. New York, April 22.—James N. Abeel, who through a letter purported to lie signed by J. B. Van Every, vice president of the Western Union Tele graph Co., secured an introduction to Miss Eleanor Anderson, a telegraph operator in the Grand hotel, under tho name of J. Ogden Goelet, jr., and subsequently became engaged to her was yesterday adjudged guilty by a Jury of forgery. The statute fixes tho penalty for this offense at imprison ment foi not more than five years. Abeel was brought back from Canada ,«j»ue months ago. to be hanged. The officers asked that their lives be spared. Gen. Kuropat kin confirmed the findings of the court, but taking into consideration the fact that the accused were sol. diers, he ordered that they should be shot instead of being hanged. TWENTY-ONE RUSSIANS KILLED. St. Petersburg, April 23. —The em peror has received the following tele gram from Viceroy Alexieff bearing Friday's date: "I respectfully report to your maj esty that to-day during the placing ol mines by some steam launches, Lieut. Pel! and 20 men were killed through a mine exploding prematurely under the stern of one of the launches." London. April 23. —A dispatch from Port Arthur says news has been re ceived there of the complete destruc tion of a Japanese column on the Yalu river. No details were obtain able. Rumors of severe fighting on the Yalu are reported from various sources. For instance, the Shanghai correspondent of the Times says he hears that the first Japanese army has crossed the Yalu almost without opposition, and the Daily Chronicle's representative at Seoul says that heavy fighting has occurred, Liao Yang, April 23. —Gen Kuropat kin is expecting that the Japanese will soon attempt to cross the Yalu. There was a skirmish Thursday on an island opposite Wiju which tlit Japanese occupied in order to pave the way for the laying of pontoons. Rnussian troops in boats were at tacked and driven back, Capt. Sneiz in, who was in command, being badly wounded. SMOOT INVESTIGATION. Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections Resumes Its Sessions. Washington, April 21. —With the reopening of the investigation in the Reed Smoot case, before the senate committee on privileges and elections, yesterday, the prosecution devoted considerable time to drawing from Brigham H. Roberts the character of the oaths which are said to be neces sary for a Mormon official to take in order to have the support of the church for political office. Members of the committee showed an equal interest in the obligations which are said to be taken by Mor mons who "go through the endow ment house." Along both lines much evidence was brought out. It was shown by Mr. Roberts' testimony that without the consent of the Mormon church he failed of election to a seat in congress, and later with church recognition of his candidacy he was elected. In relation to the endowment house obligation Mr. Roberts was extreme ly reticent. He said that the sacred ness of the ceremony was such that he could not reveal it to the world. Washington, April 22. —The feature of Thursday's hearing in the Smoot •iase before the senate committee on elections was the testimony of Angus M. Cannon, for 25 years president of the largest Mormon stake in the world. The testimony was of a per sonal character, dealing with the con viction of the witness on charges of polygamous cohabitation, and was dragged from him under protest that he be protected from any liability to , prosecution for what he revealed When assured that his plural mar riages under the statute of limitation could not bo used as evidence against him, he answered most of the ques tions asked. The sensation of the hearing oc curred when Mr. Tayler examined Mr Cannon in regard to his various mar riages. The witness confessed to hav ing six wives. Washington, April 23. —A thorough review of Mormon interference in the political affairs of Utah was given Friday by Judge O. W. Powers, the only witness before the senate com mittee on privileges and elections, in tho investigation of the protests against Senator Reed Smoot. Several times efforts were made by counsel for the defense to show that his story was based on hearsay, but the at tempts were met with an array of facts taken from si»;ned statements of members of the church. Arrest of a Smuggler. Detroit, Mich., April 23. —Alonzo Burrows, a traveling salesman, has been arrested here by Treasury Agents Lewis, Dowling and Parsch elsky, on the charge of smuggling $3,000 worth of Sumatra leaf wrap per tobacco across the river from Canada to Ecorse, a suburb of this city. He was given a hearing before Commissioner Davison and the offi cers say he broke down and confessed to his connection with the smuggling and also with two other smuggling af fairs. Burrows was released on SI,OOO bail. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, APRIL 28, 1904.
