Newohwang, April 12,—The first surprise of the campaign probably will come from eastern Manchuria. General Kuropatkin's delay in coming east caused wide comment here among those not in the secret of his war plans. His stay in Moscow of several days after his departure from St. Petersburg for the seat of war caused criticism among officers of the general Manchurian staff, but news disclosed here yesterday makes it appear that the commander in chief of the army was directing every movement from the time he left St. Petersburg. The movement of troops south from Harbin has not averaged 0,000 a week, and two-thirds of these have not come farther south than Mukden. Those who have tried to estimate the advantage of one force as against another have predicted that in the beginning the Japanese would win because of superior numbers.

Washington, April 12.—By a strict party vote of 40 to 19, the Senate today laid on the table the Gormafi amendment to the postofflce appropriation bill providing for the appointment of a Joint Congressional committee of eight to investigate the postofflce department. Diapoaition of Ruaaian Troopa. Today the information is very clear that Generals Kuropatkln and Linevltch have not been sending their main forces south to Llauyang, but that the main bodies of cavalry and Infantry have bean sent southeast from Harbin and Mukden to control the great valley stretching from northern Korea between the Sungari and the Kirin r?ad toward Vladivostok. It Is now known that five regiments of Cossacks, under command of General Rennenkanpff, went southeast from Chanchun, between Mukden and Harbin, In the second week of March, followed by a brigade of Siberian Infantry and several battalions of artillery, and that since that time this division has been re-enforced, so that it occupies all strategic points, on a fork, directly south by the Hunger! river and southeast on the road from Kirin to the western point of the Tumen valley. This force, it is believed, will be sufficient to meet any offensive movement by General Kurokl's army, from the northern point of Korea, especially as the enemy wM have to fight its way across several small rivers and through mountainous lands before it can reach the main valley between Mukden and Harbin. I to ex- Gentleman of the Convention—I thank you for the distinguished honor you have conferred upon me. The Republican party of the state of New York assembles In convention confident and aggressive. It Is unanimous and enthusiastic in the support of Its Issues and Its candidates. Sines we last met four years ago death has removed the great leaders of that campaign. McKlnlejr, the beat beloved ol presidents; Hanna, the most extraordinary organiser and political leader of ow period, and Thomas B. Reed, who rescued the house of representatives from chaoa and by his genius enabled it to transact public business. All fell in the prime of life and In the midst of their usefulness. Leaders may die, but the great party which followed them, after worthy tributes to their memory, passes on to grapple with and solve, as It has ever done, the problems which always arise in free governments, and to solve them in the interest of the party.

Officials of the prison, beooming'suapicious of the negroes' actions, instituted a search and fonnd dynamite, caps and pivot cartridges hidden in the shoe shops, where the men worked.

The problem of 400 years seemed about to be settled and the two oceans united by the canal across the Isthmus. With the growth of our Pacific coast states and the possession of our islands across the ocean and the trade of the orient the building of this canal became a necessity Of paramount Importance. All other measures dwindled into insignificance compared with the opening of this highway. The situation was intense and the changes dramatic. The accomplishment of the desired result depended only upon the formality of the ratification by the Colombian congress of the treaty proposed by the United States.

The city, he said, is impregnable, except for a long siege. The earthworks are so perfectly arranged that a surprise by land is rendered impossible, while a sea attack is, to a large dogree, precluded by the countless mines and torpedoes which guard the harbor. Thirty-fourth dlstrlot, J. E. Merritt, vioe Timothy E. Ellsworth (deceased). Fierce Fire in Oil District. New Line From Kansas City to Duluth. Kansas City, April 12.—The Times today says that plans are now in progress for the building of a railroad from Kansas City to Duluth, with a cross line from St. Louis to- Sioux City by way of Council Bluffs and Omaha and a connecting branch from Marceline, Mo., through Des Moines, la., to connect with the Duluth line at Coon Rapids, la. The company is said to have floated $80,000,000 with French capitalists at 80 cents on the dollar. Batoum, Russia, April 12.A destructive Are has broken out in Roman district, at Baku. Sixteen oil wells aro burning furiously. Evans Bros. Oovernor Odell, Senator Piatt, Senator Depew, Colonel Dunn, William Warren, George W. Aldridge and several others of the prominent party leaders held a conference, at which the platform was discussed. It was decided early in the meeting that the platform should commend the national and state administrations generally, without dwelling upon any particular issue, leaving that to be done by the chairmen of the convention in their speeches. The platform will be very brief in form. It will not make more than 1,500 words. But the dictator, now president, had congress called together for that purpose and saw a superb opportunity of a holdup in the necessities of the United States. Day after day the warning went forth from Bogota from the representatives of the department of Panama and to Bogota from Panama Itself that If the treaty was rejected Panama would reassert the Independence which had been violently taken from her eighteen years ago. When Panama fulfilled the threat known to all the world for months and successfully accomplished her revolution the president acted within his constitutional privilege with the directness, courage and wisdom characteristic of his whole public life. The opportunity was presented, and he seised it. He might have let a war go on between Panama and Colombia. He might have commenced fruitless negotiations with Nicaragua and Costa Rica. He might have transferred the whole question to congress, weakly abandoning his executive responsibility, but the mandate of the American people was upon him to build the isthmian canal, and the congress by the unanimous vote of the senators and members of the house of representatives on the Republican side and a large number of senators and members of the house on the Democratic side have affirmed the wisdom and the constitutionality of his course.

He was rash when a* assistant secretary of the navy he paralysed the bureau officers by ordering the navy to burn powder in target practice. But that rashness materialised in the highest conservatism when those gunners under Dewey sank the fleet at Manila bay in fifty minutes and Cervera's fleet at Santiago In sixty. All of his acquaintances said he was rash when he threw up a comfortable berth In the navy department to take upon himself the perils of the campaign in Cuba; that he was rash when at the head of his regiment he encountered volleys of Spanish bullets in battle, but that rashnesB displayed the qualities which make the American people both trust and love him. He has probed deeply the great departments of the government and prosecuted those of his own household of faith who were found guilty. He enforced the law when dire predictions of disaster were made and by doing so lost the favor of some of the ablest and strongest of our financial leaders, but the supreme court has sustained his action, and the markets have rebounded with that phenomenal rise In the securities affected which demonstrates the judgment of the investors of the country.

New 8tate Committee Member*. . n _ iscrs £ State Convention Assembles Her Tre tween I ADVANCE OF JAP8 BLOCKED Information Received at Newohwang Make It Claar That General Kuropatkin Has Been Managing Military Affairs Since He Started From Ruaala. Newohwang, April 12,—The first surprise of the campaign probably will come from eastern Manchuria. General Kuropatkin's delay in coming east caused wide comment here among those not in the secret of his war plans. His stay in Moscow of several days after his departure from St. Petersburg for the seat of war caused criticism among officers of the general Manchurian staff, but news disclosed here yesterday makes it appear that the commander in chief of the army was directing every movement from the time he left St. Petersburg. The movement of troops south from Harbin has not averaged 0,000 a week, and two-thirds of these have not come farther south than Mukden. Those who have tried to estimate the advantage of one force as against another have predicted that in the beginning the Japanese would win because of superior numbers.

Diapoaition of Ruaaian Troopa. Today the information is very clear that Generals Kuropatkln and Linevltch have not been sending their main forces south to Llauyang, but that the main bodies of cavalry and Infantry have bean sent southeast from Harbin and Mukden to control the great valley stretching from northern Korea between the Sungari and the Kirin r?ad toward Vladivostok. It Is now known that five regiments of Cossacks, under command of General Rennenkanpff, went southeast from Chanchun, between Mukden and Harbin, In the second week of March, followed by a brigade of Siberian Infantry and several battalions of artillery, and that since that time this division has been re-enforced, so that it occupies all strategic points, on a fork, directly south by the Hunger! river and southeast on the road from Kirin to the western point of the Tumen valley. This force, it is believed, will be sufficient to meet any offensive movement by General Kurokl's army, from the northern point of Korea, especially as the enemy wM have to fight its way across several small rivers and through mountainous lands before it can reach the main valley between Mukden and Harbin.

The Republican party of the state of New York assembles In convention confident and aggressive. It Is unanimous and enthusiastic in the support of Its Issues and Its candidates. Sines we last met four years ago death has removed the great leaders of that campaign. McKlnlejr, the beat beloved ol presidents; Hanna, the most extraordinary organiser and political leader of ow period, and Thomas B. Reed, who rescued the house of representatives from chaoa and by his genius enabled it to transact public business. All fell in the prime of life and In the midst of their usefulness. Leaders may die, but the great party which followed them, after worthy tributes to their memory, passes on to grapple with and solve, as It has ever done, the problems which always arise in free governments, and to solve them in the interest of the party.

All other measures dwindled into insignificance compared with the opening of this highway. The situation was intense and the changes dramatic.

The company is said to have floated $80,000,000 with French capitalists at 80 cents on the dollar. Batoum, Russia, April 12.A destructive Are has broken out in Roman district, at Baku. Sixteen oil wells aro burning furiously. Evans Bros. Oovernor Odell, Senator Piatt, Senator Depew, Colonel Dunn, William Warren, George W. Aldridge and several others of the prominent party leaders held a conference, at which the platform was discussed. It was decided early in the meeting that the platform should commend the national and state administrations generally, without dwelling upon any particular issue, leaving that to be done by the chairmen of the convention in their speeches. The platform will be very brief in form. It will not make more than 1,500 words. But the dictator, now president, had congress called together for that purpose and saw a superb opportunity of a holdup in the necessities of the United States. Day after day the warning went forth from Bogota from the representatives of the department of Panama and to Bogota from Panama Itself that If the treaty was rejected Panama would reassert the Independence which had been violently taken from her eighteen years ago. When Panama fulfilled the threat known to all the world for months and successfully accomplished her revolution the president acted within his constitutional privilege with the directness, courage and wisdom characteristic of his whole public life. The opportunity was presented, and he seised it. He might have let a war go on between Panama and Colombia. He might have commenced fruitless negotiations with Nicaragua and Costa Rica. He might have transferred the whole question to congress, weakly abandoning his executive responsibility, but the mandate of the American people was upon him to build the isthmian canal, and the congress by the unanimous vote of the senators and members of the house of representatives on the Republican side and a large number of senators and members of the house on the Democratic side have affirmed the wisdom and the constitutionality of his course.

He was rash when a* assistant secretary of the navy he paralysed the bureau officers by ordering the navy to burn powder in target practice. But that rashness materialised in the highest conservatism when those gunners under Dewey sank the fleet at Manila bay in fifty minutes and Cervera's fleet at Santiago In sixty. All of his acquaintances said he was rash when he threw up a comfortable berth In the navy department to take upon himself the perils of the campaign in Cuba; that he was rash when at the head of his regiment he encountered volleys of Spanish bullets in battle, but that rashnesB displayed the qualities which make the American people both trust and love him. He has probed deeply the great departments of the government and prosecuted those of his own household of faith who were found guilty. He enforced the law when dire predictions of disaster were made and by doing so lost the favor of some of the ablest and strongest of our financial leaders, but the supreme court has sustained his action, and the markets have rebounded with that phenomenal rise In the securities affected which demonstrates the judgment of the investors of the country.
