JAPANESE TARE, MUKOEN Russians Compelled to Retreat toward Tie Pass. THE LOSSES ARE ENORMOUS Fushun Said to Have Been Taken and Kuropatkin Driven Into the Hills to Starve. Field Marshal Oyama telegraphs as follows, under March 10: “We occupied Mukden at 10 o'clock this morning. Our surrounding move- ment, in which we have been engag- ed for some days past, has now com- pletely succeeded. The fiercest fight- ng continues at several places in the vicinity of Mukden. We captured a great number of prisoners, enormous quantities of arms, ammunition, pro- visions and other supplies. There is at present no time to investigate the number of these.” Fushun was occupied by the Jap- anese last night. The fighting con- tinues on the heights north of Fu- shun. Gen. Kuropatkin’s telegraph on the 10th to the emperor is as follows: “I am retiring on Tie pass in three columns, the first along the railway, the second along the Mandarin road, the third along a road further east.” The losses in the operations preced- ing the battle and those in the battle smproper have reached enormous pro- portions, but up to the present, neither side has attempted an estimate. They will exceed the Shakhe losses, in which the Russians alone lost in kill- ed and wounded and missing 67,000 men. Field Marshal Oyama arranged his attack so that the Chinese city of Mukden should not come within the range of battle, rather an easy task, as the Russians had no positions im- rnediately around the city, as was the case at Liao Yang, and the Russian town is two miles from the outer walls of the old city. The western -im- perial tombs were under shell, fire, but no account has been given of the damage, if any, that they suffered. | The eastern tombs, around which the | Russians had erected positions, ap- parently did not come within the range of the Japanese shells. PEASANT ARMY ON THE MARCH Burning and Looting Estates Along Their Path. An army of 300 peasants from the Orlovka district of Russia is advanec- ing southwesterly. Burning and loot- ing of estates is in progress. Eigh- teen estates already have been sacked. The Michailoffsky sugar re- finery, belonging to the Tereschanko Bros.,, has been burned and all the employes have been robbed. It is also reported the peasants have burned the Doruiginsky refinery, belonging to the Crown. A strong military force has been sent to suppress the rising. A telegram from Ekaterinoslav, South Russia, says five miners have been killed and fifteen wounded in a conflict between mine strikers and soldiers in the district of Bakmut. The strikers started looting, fired at the soldiers and threw stones at them, whereupon the troops fired a volley and order was restored. Revo- lutionary disorders have broken out at Smolensk, Middle Russia. Two men fired six shots from a revolver at the Governor of Kutais province, but he was not struck. REWARD FOR BIG FAMILY President Roosevelt Gives Deed for 160 Acres of Land. A gift of 160 acres of Government | upon | land is the reward bestowed Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Farthing of Dewey- ville, O., by President children, to 20 years. his wife 38.

They have! not yet decided upon their future home. COKE SHIPMENTS Connellsville and Masontown Fields Establish a New Recoru. Last week witnessed the greatest shipment of coke ever made from the Connelisville region—over 267,000 tons. The heaviest gains were in the eastern and western shipments, the stocks at these points having been greatly reduced during the last | g 3 month. The Masontown field, how- ever, did not fare so well, its s - ments falling off nearly 2,500 tons. Notwithstanding this the total of shipments from the Connellsville anc Masontown fields was a record-break- er, aggregating 321,979 tons. It is estimated that there are over 250.000 tons of surplus coke the yards throughout the i the firing of ovens, except where the yards are comparatively clear, will be held back until the greater part of this extra stock i shipped out.

The Iron Trade Review says: “Unprecedented consumption of pig iron and steel on the threshold of the season always marked by quickened activity raises the question whether the pace wiil be kept under control. Pig Iron output at a rate of nearly | 21,500,000 tons, and metal going into melters hands at something more than that rate presents a situation in which precedents give little help. The bessemer industry, going forward rapidly again after a marked falling | away in 1904, is a large factor in the | present movement. “In the last week the foundry n- dustry has been a larger participant in the market than for weeks, and the buying of foundry iron has been divided among a diversified and grow- ing list of consumers. “The abandonment for the time of the efforts to combine the large southern companies has scarcely created a ripple in the pigiron market as prices are sustained by natural conditicas. Discussion of advances on southern irons is answered by con- tinued selling of No. 2 foundry at $13.50 at furnace, and on northern iron the basis of $16 for No. 2 at central western furnace while aimed at, is not maintained. Southern Ohio iron has sold at $15.75, and in a few instances at $15.50. Besemer iron is less active after recent buying, but some steel works requirements for March are yet to be met. Basic pig iron at $16, Pittsburg, indicates an easier condition than has been gen- erally credited. “The steel market in billets and in most finished materials continues to present a record scale of operations. Independent producers of certain of the lighter finished materials are not getting sufficient steel to operate in full. and the prices of their products as established by the larger interests | do not warrant importations of bil- | lets and sheet bars at present prices | abroad. These would mean $29.50! for billets delivered at Pittsburg, or | about $27.50 at tidewater. { “The last week has made no large additicns to rail business, but in| structural lines the developments | have been encouraging.

The directors of the German Na- tional bank of Cincinnati adopted a resolution charging the $55,000 deficit in the government reserve fund to profit and loss. The shortage in the reserve fund has been made up from the undivided profits and the books are thus straightened. This is an admission on the part of the directors that they are convin- ced there is no chance to recover the money at present and that the loss of the money is not an error in book- keeping. They also resolved that the hunt for the missing mcaey would be to be made to detect the thief. Fatal Rear End Collision.

CHADWICK CONVICTED She Acted in Hysterical Manner when Verdict was Given. GUILTY ON SEVEN COUNTS The Maximum Penalty is $10,000 Fine and 14 Years in the Penitentiary. Guilty on seven counts in defraud- ing the Unifed States by conspiring to secure certification of checks on a national bank with no funds in the bank to her credit, was the verdict found by the jury trying Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick, after but two hours’ deliberation. Mrs. Chadwick, who is slightly deaf, did not grasp the meaning of the verdict until given the news by At- torney Wing. For a moment she col- lapsed and sank limp into her chair while she sobbed. Then she arose and defiantly asked to be taken from the court room. Reaching the hall- way her composure utterly deserted her and violently throwing off the arm of Deputy Marshal Clobitz, she shrieked: “Let me go! Let me go, I tell you! Oh, my God, let me go—I am an in- nocent woman! I'm not guilty.” Suddenly she fell against Judge Wing, who caught her: ‘by * the shoulders in time to keep her from falling into the open elevator door. With Deputy Marshal Minder, Judge Wing carried her into the elevator and bore her into the office of the United States Marshal on the floor below. Here she was laid upon a lounge and became seized with an attack of hysteria, crying and sobbing loudly for 15 minutes. Two nurses were in prompt attendance and ap- plied restoratives, and a half hour later the prisoner was taken back to jail. The jury found guilty on all the counts in the indictment allotted to their discretion. Of the original 16 counts the judge in his charge order- ed the jury to exclude nine. The maximum sentence that can be im- posed is an aggregate fine of $10,000 and two years’ imprisonment on each count, making 14 years in all. Judge Wing entered a motion for a new trial immediately after the ver- dict was rendered, and Judge Tayler announced that he would fix a date later to hear argument on the mo- tion. CZAR STILL HOLDS oUT Defeat at Mukden Has Not Brought Russia to Terms. The immediate answer of the Rus- sian government to the defeat at Mukden is the announeement that a new army will be raised and the forces in the Far East reorganized; that Vice Admiral Rojestvensky will be ordered to sail on and try conclus- ions with Togo, and that the war will be prosecuted to the bitter end. This is the present temper of Em- peror Nicholas and his dorminant ad- visers, voiced in a firm official an- nouncement that the decision of Rus- sia is unchanged and that the initia- tive for peace can only come from Japan. Field Marshal Oyama reports that 40,000 prisoners were taken, and that there were 90,000 Russian casualties in the Shakhe river district alone. Estimates place the Russian dead left on the field at about 30,000. Over 80 guns and 65,000 rifles were cap- tured. The well-informed here rough- ly estimate the total Russian casu- alties at 150,000, and those of Japanese at 60,000. It is reported that Tie pass is practically undefend- ed, and another great action garded as improbable. Taxed $10,000,000. The United States Steel corpora- tion, with a capitalization of $1,100,- 000,000, was assessed for $10,000,000 personal property by the New York This $10,- 000.000 was in excess of-its real estate and debts. The company made its formal answer, and its attorney has off all save $2,000,000 of the ssessment.

Special agents of the Federal Gov- ernment are reported to have been engaged for some time in investigat- ing public land frauds in Utah. Hun- dreds of thousands of acres of val- uable coal lands are said to have been acquired by corporations as agricul- tural and grazing land and then transferred to coal companies. In many instances, it is stated, lands have been settled on as coal lands under the law which permits every adult citizen to acquire 160 acres of coal lands by purchase, up- on payment of $10 an acre for such lands when situated more than 15 miles from any railroad, and $23 an acre when situated within 15 miles of a railroad. Later these filings have been allowed to lapse and the same lands have been acquired as agri- cultural or grazing lands at $1.50 per acre. Forty filings made in 1901 within a period of 60 days have recently been investigated, and 30 of the 40 claimants are found to have been represented by an employe of a big coal corpora- tion, exercising a power of attorney. 200 INDICTMENTS Kentucky Grand Jury’s Action Against Standard. The Grand Jury at Cynthiana, Ky., brought 200 indictments against the Standard Oil Company. The company is charged “with retailing oil from a wagon without a license.” The fine in each case varies from $50 to $1,000. The lowest possible penalty would reach $10,000. The indictments are a sequel to a recent decision by Judge O’Rear, of the Court of Appeals of Kentucky, holding the Standard lia- ble for licenses in an Oldham coun- ty case, TELEGRAPHIC BRIEFS. An attempt was made at Jackson, Ky. Hiram Centers, along the street to the court house.

State department is officially informed from Tokio that the Japanese have achieved a great vie- tory before Mukden, and that the Russian army is in full retreat. The casualties are numerous on both sides. It is officially announced that the Russians began retreating on the 7th. The Japanese armies are pur- suing them. A message from Mukden, March 8, says: The Russian army is evacu- ating its position south of Mukden. A heavy cannonading is in progress northwest of this city, causing the walls of houses here to tremble. An engagement is in progress at the Im- perial tombs. The Japanese are concentrating on the west front. This may be the last dispatch out of Mukden, as the tele- graph line is in danger of being de-’ stroyed. The battle is in full pro- gress. For ten days the Japanesa and Russian armies in Manchuria have been engaged in a mighty conflict, the issue of which has not yet been reached. Although the most of the news from the scenes of the battle comes through Russian sources and consequently may be supposed to pre- sent the facts in as favorable a light as possible for the Russian arms, it is evident that the Japanese made some gains yesterday. i St. Petersburg has zn uncfficial port that Gen. Kuropatkin’s center has been broken, and that 13 siege guns have fallen into tiie hands of the Japanese. These guns, which ares r re- of six and eight-inca caliber, wera given perman¢nt emplacement on the line of ths raiiroad nerth of Shakhe station, the fact encing the coniidence of the Ru s that the Japanese could not penetrate thither.

No confirmation has reached Lon- don of the report that Vice Admiral Rojestvensky’s squadron is returning from Madaeasecar to Jubitil, but should it prove true it will ba regardzd as a strong iadication of Russia’s desire to arrange terms of nsace with Japan. Shipping circles ars not surprised at the return of the Russian fleet to the Red sea, since recent events here indicate that the Russian government is undecided with reference to fur- ther attemnts to send the fleet to Eastern Asiatic waters.
