Here's a special bargain to open school days with St. l'etersburg, Sept. 3.—There is not a ray of light here upon the war. This is the gloomiest time St. l'etersburg has known since Togo's tirst success at I'ort Arthur was Hashed to this city. The government either has no fresh news or the dispatches are of such a character that it is deemed best not to make tlieni public even In skeleton form. Yesterday afternoon It was announced that a belated dispatch from Genernl Kuroputkln on Thursday night would be made public at 12 o'clock. After waiting until nearly all St. l'etersburg had gone to bed the war oflleB announced there was 110 news from the front that would be made public.

The Brotherhoods of Locomotive Engineers and Firemen by a unanimous vote have decided to quit work unless their demands for a union scale of wages in the subway are granted at Children's Slack Bibbed Hose, 12'4c pair. Railroad, It Is Expected Tokyo, Sept. .1.—It is expected that the main strength of Field Marshal Oyaina's forces to the southward will succeed today in crossing the TaUriver. General Kuroki yesterday captured a portion of the heights commanding Heiyingtal. and it is hoped that lie will dominate the railroad today. Memphis, Tenai., Sept. 3.—Fire Fire started at one o'clock this morning in the building of the Oliver Finney Grocery Co., and the flames spread rapidly to the neighboring buildings. Within a few hours six large business buildings had been ruined, causing a loss that it is believed will reach fully a million dollars. Russian Dispatch Says Japs Were Repulsed The Russians appear to lie gathering Rt Yentain colliery, northeast of Liao- J-ang. An elegant quality with double knee, comes in all sizes,a nd guaranteed good wearers. I t is an unusually good bargain. . The Japanese are confident thnt they liave already swept back the strong Russian force with which tliey have been engaged, and it is probable thnt when the details are known it will be found that a great tragedy has been enacted along the Tai river. This was n severe blow to the army officers and those in official life who were prepared to hear of reverses, but had not toned themselves up to a point where they could conceive that the government had news,too bad to make, public. A Royal Betrothal Berlin, Sept. 3.—The newspaper Tageblatt announces the betrothal of the German Crown Prince, Frederick Wilheltn, to the Duchess Cecilio of Mecklenburg Schwann, sister of the TOKIO REPORTS ARE HOPEFUL PEOPLE'S STORE, The river is flooded and cannot be forded. General Oku, in command of the Jnpanese left army, has directed his energies to forcing the Russians to tiie river, and it is probable that many were drowned there. Following the announcement that General Kuropntkln's dispatch of Thursday would not lie given out came another from the general staff that not a line had been received from the seat of war during the day or night. The only construction that could be put upon this is that flic communications have been cut north townrd Mukden and that General Kuropntkln's army, like that at Port Arthur, is cut off from all outside resources. The very worst is feared here, but there is still a dogged confidence in General Kuropatkin. It is believed that his abandonment of IJnoynng, if true, was caused for strategic reasons. There is no proof that the bulk of his army has retired from I.iaoyang, and it Hs regarded as more probable that he was compelled to send his left wing across the Tai river hurriedly iu order to meet the flanking movement of Gen- reigning grand duke. \ « NEW 'PHONE 5152 St. Petersburg Officials Says Liao Yang will be Abandoned Unless Victory is Won Immediately.

This statement is not confirmed officially. The tires are believed to result from the Japanese shelling or from the efforts of the Russians to destroy their stores preparatory to (he evacuation of Liaoynng. with the additional hope of injuring the city as a future Japanese base. 44444 -****C C******* Wl ***** Funeral of Mrs. Catherine McHale, The funeral of Mrs. Catherine Mc- Hale occurred this morning from the family 'home on Market street..

This morning the Russians began preparations to retake the position. The advance against General Kuroki was also begun, which was met by a strong rifle fire from the Japanese center. An attempt by the Japanese to capture the Liao Yang railway station was repulsed with great loss." ►nee.

Experts who are familiar with vlic nature of the intricate and powerful defenses constructed north of the Tal by General Yelitchko, one of Russia's foremost army engineers, believe that the Japanese are facing an almost impossible task iu attacking them, especially with divided forces. The men cheered themselves hoarse when the result of the ballot was announced, and most of them expressed themselves as against further delay in ordering the strike.

Memphis, Tenai., Sept. 3.—Fire Fire started at one o'clock this morning in the building of the Oliver Finney Grocery Co., and the flames spread rapidly to the neighboring buildings.

Russian Dispatch Says Japs Were Repulsed The Russians appear to lie gathering Rt Yentain colliery, northeast of Liao- J-ang. An elegant quality with double knee, comes in all sizes,a nd guaranteed good wearers. I t is an unusually good bargain. . The Japanese are confident thnt they liave already swept back the strong Russian force with which tliey have been engaged, and it is probable thnt when the details are known it will be found that a great tragedy has been enacted along the Tai river. This was n severe blow to the army officers and those in official life who were prepared to hear of reverses, but had not toned themselves up to a point where they could conceive that the government had news,too bad to make, public. A Royal Betrothal Berlin, Sept. 3.—The newspaper Tageblatt announces the betrothal of the German Crown Prince, Frederick Wilheltn, to the Duchess Cecilio of Mecklenburg Schwann, sister of the TOKIO REPORTS ARE HOPEFUL PEOPLE'S STORE, The river is flooded and cannot be forded. General Oku, in command of the Jnpanese left army, has directed his energies to forcing the Russians to tiie river, and it is probable that many were drowned there. Following the announcement that General Kuropntkln's dispatch of Thursday would not lie given out came another from the general staff that not a line had been received from the seat of war during the day or night. The only construction that could be put upon this is that flic communications have been cut north townrd Mukden and that General Kuropntkln's army, like that at Port Arthur, is cut off from all outside resources. The very worst is feared here, but there is still a dogged confidence in General Kuropatkin. It is believed that his abandonment of IJnoynng, if true, was caused for strategic reasons. There is no proof that the bulk of his army has retired from I.iaoyang, and it Hs regarded as more probable that he was compelled to send his left wing across the Tai river hurriedly iu order to meet the flanking movement of Gen- reigning grand duke. \ « NEW 'PHONE 5152 St. Petersburg Officials Says Liao Yang will be Abandoned Unless Victory is Won Immediately.
