VOL. LXXIII. XO. 122. FURTHER LOSSES JAPANESE Another Battleship Said Have Been Sunk at Port Arthur to 2RECKIN LIAO TUNG GULF DANGEROUS TO NAVIGATION Russians Report the Sinking of a Small Gunboat and Two Torpedo Boats By Associated Press.

Chefoo, May 23. The captain of a Russian merchantman, who left Tort Arthur on May 20th, and is among the recent arrivals from Dalny, says in an interview that the whole of the Japanese fleet had not returned to Port Arthur since the 15th instant, when besides'the battleship Hatsuse, an other big vessel struck a mine and was towed away disabled. Gunboats and torpedo boats returned off the port on the 20th instant, when the Russians succeeded in sinking a small gunboat and two torpedo boats. The Russians are now confident of holding Port Arthur with the thirty thousand men now stationed there, exclusive of the navy and the crowds of mechanics working on the damaged warships, all of which except the Czarevitch and the Retvian are ready to rejoin the fleet. These will also be ready for sea service by June 1st.

The Japanese have reported to the Consuls here that a wreck in the Liao Tung Gulf is dangerous to navigation and it is possible that this is the other ship said to have been damaged at Port Arthur on the loth instant as the Japanese fleet is known to have entered the gulf after the disaster to the Hatsuse. A JAPANESE DESTROYER HIT BY A RUSSIAN SHELL Tokio, May 23.

JAPANESE CONCENTRATED NEAR FENG WANG CHENG St. Petersburg, May 23.

General Kuropatkin reports as follows: "Our cavalry patrols, which are re connoitering on the further side of the Finchouling Mountains, seventy miles northeast of I'eng War.g Cheng, report that the. first Japanese army is concentrated in the neighborhood of Feng Wang Cheng. The Japanese cover their dispositions by small advance guards, consisting sometimes of a regiment of infantry with artillery and cavalry along the roads, but with no more than two companies at unimportant points. Their cavalry is seldom seen. "According to reports received on May 20th there were two divisions at Feng Wang Cheng and a division at Hahalin, midway between Siuyen and Feng Wang Cheng." THE ROBBER BANDS LED BY JAPANESE OFFICERS By Associated Press.

Berlin, May 23. A correspondent of the Frankfurter Zeitung, writing from Harbin under date of April 15th, says: "The robber bands have grown bolder and more active than ever. Within a few weeks of the date of the letter a band numbering 2,000 men attacked a well guarded railway station. The Piussians asserted that they positively recognized Japanese officers in command of the assailants." Continuing, the correspondent says that ferocious bitterness prevails throughout the Chinese population against the Bussians. After saying that the Russian settlers regarded the natives as being far lower than clogs, the correspondent says Russian officers assured him that tne peasant settlers tested their new rifles by taking a native as a target.

"One engineer with whom I traveled," he asserts, "did not salute a well known officer because the latter had shot down eight of the engineer's best laborers in mere wantonness. His complaint remained unanswered." CHINESE HEAR OF DEFEAT OF JAPS AT PORT ARTHUR By Associated Press. St. Petersburg, May 23. According to reports which have reached the Russian headquarters at Liao Yang from Chinese sources, the Japanese have been repulsed in an attack on Port Arthur with heavy loss.

Willis Hoover, pastor of the United Evangelical Church on Harris street, in his evening sermon yesterday made an earnest plea for the removal of Albright College from Myerstown to this city, which project is'now being considered by the Board of Trade. He said not only would the bringing of the college to Harrisburg add to the city's population and business, but it would, through its influence upon the youth of town, do much for the moral standard of the community. The Board of Trade committee on college transfer is hard at work and will have a report to make at the June meeting of the board. The members hope to raise the money desired. II BOYS Killed After a Chase Clark on Pasteur Treatment A black setter of unknown ownership, supposed to have been mad, bit Adam Atkins, ten years old, and Theo dore Carlisle, of Hanna street; snap ped Mrs.

John Adams' dress, and bit two dogs Saturday evening in South Harrisburg. Adam Atkins, father of the bitten boy, chased the dog and stunned it with a brick. A bullet from the rifle of Jacob Zimerman did the rest. Young Clark, who was bitten some weeks ago by a dog on Allison Hill, is rapidly recovering in the Pasteur institute of Baltimore. Relative to hydrophobia and the Pasteur treatment his father, S.

D. Clark says: "In my visits to Baltimore on account of my son Frederick, who is a patient in the Pasteur department of the City Hospital, 1 cannot help but reply to some, of the statements made by some of our honored men in regard to hydrophobia being a myth and the Pasteur treatment a fake. There can be no doubt, says Dr. Keirle, head of the Pasteur department, that there are not. a few, but many cases of genuine hydrophobia.

There can be no doubt about the specific infectious nature of rabies, though up to the present time its cause has not been developed. "Many have labored upon the problems of hydrophobia but no name is so well known or so justly honored as that of the great pioneer in bacteriology, Pasteur. The profession and laity are alike familiar with his name and work, and although at times the newspapers and certain members of the profession have opposed the method of treatment which he suggested (however, the doctor in Washington mentioned a few evenings ago who had an offer of $500 standing for a genuine case of rabies, was Dr. Rosse; he is dead, but prior to his death he had a few practical specimens, but refused to put forth the cash). We cannot bqt feel that this skepticism and opposition are due to ignorance of the principles upon which Pasteur reasoned.

"Hydrophobia, Lyssa or rabies, is a specific infectious toxic disease to which dogs, wolves, skunks and cats are highly susceptible, and which, through their saliva can be communicated to men, horses, cows and other animals. The. means of communication is almost invariably a bite, hence the specific organism must be present in the saliva. The infected animals manifest no symptoms during a varying incubation period in which the wound heals kindly. This period may be of twelve months' duration, but in rare cases may be only a few days.

The average duration of the period of incubation is about six weeks. "Toward the close of the incubation period an observable alteration occurs in the wound, which becomes reddened, may suppurate and is painful. The victim has a sensation of horrible dread, which passes into wild excitement, with paralysis of the pharyngeal muscles and inability to swallow. The wild delirium ends in a final stage of convulsions or palsy. The convulsions are toux, rarely clonic, and finally cause death by interfering with respiration.

They have many strange and pathetic incidents to relate of patients who were brought in too late for the treatment and who succumbed to the horrors of hydrophobia. "I plead through this article that our boys and girls, men and women of the city of Harrisburg, may receive protection from the hundreds of mongrel curs running on our streets. Will Councils act quickly and wisely in regards to some stringent measures? I claim that the dog on the street unaccompanied should be muzzled, and the one found not so protected should be killed. I am not for the extermination of the canine tribe, but for the protection of humanity and the good dog. I have confidence in our eouncihuen, and know through investigation that the people of Harrisburg are in sympathy with the movement.

My son Frederick and Walter Stine, son of Rev. Mr. Stine, D. are getting along nicely. The former will be dismussed on May 30th.

the latter June 2d. Hydrophobia is a reality; the Pasteur treatment a success (because only one patient lost out of 500 and some treated and that not entirely due to the treatment), and the muzzle lawr a necessity." FOUR FEET OF WATER IN HOSPITAL ANNEX CELLAR Four feet of water flooded the cellar of the new extension of the Harrisburg Hospital last night about 10 o'clock. The leak was in a four inch water pipe, which feeds the steam boilers, and it was necessary to pull the fires. several hours' work the leak was stormed. The damage was small.

ill nARRISBURG, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 23, 1904. ONE CENT. SLEEPING IN MURDERED fii NEGRO ROBBERS Five Burglars Attacked Four Slavs in Enola Boarding House THREE WOUNDED MEN TELL STORY AT INQUEST In Bed, They Were Awakened at Mid night by Storm of Bullets Steve Baltich was shot to death and his three cousins, Pete, George and Nik Baltich, were wounded in what is believed to have been an attempt on the part of five negroes to rob a boarding shanty near Enola late Saturday night. The four men were employed on the Enola railroad improvements arid occupied one room in a boardinghouse about an eighth of a mile above West Fairview. The story of the attack and murder was told by the wounded men at the coroner's inquest yesterday afternoon.

Five negroes, they testified, entered the room while the men were asleep. GeorVe was awakened by one of the intruders extinguishing the lamp near his bed. The negro shot him in the breast, the bullet glancing off. The four other negroes then opened fire at the. sleepers.

Pete, with a bullet in his shoulder, fought the robbers bare handed and received a six inch gash in he back of his neck. Nik was shot in the right arm. Steve was shot three times and died instantly. One bullet entered the intestines, one in the right' hand and a third in the left leg. The robbers fled without securing any booty.

It was not until morning that Constable Hippensteel was notified and he at once sent Dr. E. W. Snyder, of Marysville, who dressed the men's wounds. At the time of the inquest yesterday the men still occupied the blood stained cots beside the dead body of their cousin, who was dressed for his funeral in the best suit of clothes he owned.

The dead man was of powerful build, about thirty five years old, and was unmarried. Outside the shanty the other laborers made merry with music and dance. Peter Coble, of Bridgeport, was deputized to act as coroner, and he empaneled the following jury for the inquest: William Rider, Robert Sadler, Charles Burns, William Hippensteel, T. J. Newcomer and Hiram Dunbar.

The verdict was that Steve Balt ich had been murdered by persons who had come from outside the shack. This, one of the jurymen said afterward, was the only verdict that could be reached in view of the sworn testimony of the three wounded men. There is a suspicion in the minds of some that the story of an attack by negroes was invented to cover the fact of a fight among the Slavs themselves. MOTOR CAR HUNG ON EDGE OF BANK lttf Seven Llnglestown Passenger Held Their Breath for a Minute A trolley car on the Linglestown branch of the Central Pennsylvania Passenger Railway Company jumped the track some miles east ot Progress yesterday and fifty seven passengers aboard held their breath as it bounded along over the tracks for a minute and finally brought up, nicely balanced on the, edge of an embankment. The accident was caused by the newlv laid tracks, not yet ballasted, spreading beneath the wheels of the heavily burdened car.

The car was movinc down a gentle grade without power when the accident occurred and was easily controlled, else it would have gone over the bank. It is thought that the heat caused the rails to expand sufficiently to allow the rails to spread under Heavy pressure HOMF AFTER TRIP OF 8 000 MILES Bishop Hartzler Visited Churches from Pennsylvania to Oregon Bishop II. B. Hartzler, of the United Evangelical Church, returned on Saturday from a trip of more than 8,000 miles, during which he visited churches and presided over conferences from Pennsylvania to Oregon. His means of conveyance varied from a Pullman palace car to a buckboard on a stony mountain roaci.

The Church is flourishing and grow ing in all parts of the country. The growth is particularly noticeable in the newly settled districts of the Hest and the need ot aid in spread ing the gospel there and assistance tor young churches is greatly leit.

SUPREME COURT REVERSES THE SUPERIOR COURT By Associated Press. Philadelphia, May 23.

The Supreme Court to day reversed the Superior Court in liquor license cases from Potter county. In 1899 the Legislature passed an act repealing an act of 1866, which prohibited the sale of liquor in Potter county, but the act contained a proviso that it would not go into effect until approved by a majority of the voters of the county. An election was held and licenses received a majority; A number of licenses were then granted by the county court. An appeal was taken to the Superior Court, which reversed the lower court on the ground that the act of 1899 was unconstitutional, because the Legislature had delegated its powers to the voters. DR.

HILL MAY SECURE IMPORTANT APPOINTMENT The name of Dr. J. Wesley Hill, pastor of Grace Church, this city, is prominently mentioned for the position of secretary of Sunday school publications of the Methodist Church, the appointment to be made by the General Conference, now in session at Los Angeles. Dr. Hill is recommended for the place by Dr.

Dr Hill is attending' thejeonfer ence Son in law Hit Her With Bottle Says, Mrs. Rhiver Catherine Rhiver, of Lochiel, applied at the Harrisburg Hospital for treatment this morning for her head, which bore an ugly gash and which she said resulted frohi a whiskey bottle, which was thrown by a son in law. According to the woman, her dutiful son must have played good base uan in time, for he threw a small bottle over two wide backyards and caught his mother in law on the head. The wound is not serious.

For probably an hour, she delighted the attaches and nurses at the hospital with details of a family row which must have threatened the foundation stones of some of the blast furnaces in the. near vicinity. She said she has a daughter who is mar ried to Zacharias Jackson's wife son, the last named of whom refuses to allow his wife to go home to see her Harrisburg a Lively Town, Says New York Man "Harrisburg is one of the liveliest and most prosperous towns in the LTnited States. My business takes me all over the country and in no city, large or small, is there so much commercial and business activity as here." This was the remark of a representative of a large New York concern and he further observed that in no city that he visits has there been such improvement as he notes here. Citizens of Harrisburg sometimes forget that they are highly favored owing to the provision which was made for the great public improvements and the great expenditures which are being made by the railroad companies in the classification yards at West Fair view and the Cut Off on the western side of the river.

The financial arrangements to carry forward these great improvements "No Settlement; It's Blackmail" Said Spayd Through an overheard conversation in the office of Alderman Spayd this morning, George Hamilton, of Y'ork, is in the Dauphin county prison to answer the charge of blackmail. His wife and John Bair, alias Myers, are in the same place, on serious charges as the result of an unusual modifica tion of the old "panel game." Two weeks ago, Hamilton, who was then working in Y'oriv, appeared before Alderman Spayd and made information that, Bair had eloped with his wife, who is a rather good looking woman, and that a warrant should be issued for his arrest. The setting of Story of Removal of School Was Only a Fake Special to the Telegraph. I Carlisle, May 23. "The story that the Carlisle Indian School is to be transferred to Helena, is a fake," said Colonel R.

H. Pratt, superintendent of that institution to day. "The Carlisle school has been established by law," continuetl Colonel Pratt, "built up and appropriated for twenty five years and can only be removed by action of. the power that established and has kept it going the Congress of the United States. "Doubtless, the Montana Wesleyan University would be glad to unload its property on the government, and that is probably the moving influence.

The allegation of economy of transportation is absurd. The pupils would have to be transported to that school and its supplies would have to be transported much farther. "It would be a good thing if the sum total of the yearly expenses and average attendance of all the various Quickly Slew the Man Who Murdered His Wife Dubois, May 23. A disagreement over a friendly wrestling match led to the murder of a woman and the subsequent killing of the murderer by her husband at the little mining town of Cardiff, near this place, on Saturday evening. Frank Paul, a storekeeper, was visiting Saverio Pellet; vino at the lat ter's boardinghouse.

They engaged in a friendly tussle, which ended in anger. Paul departed with hot words, leaving his hat. He was afraid to return for the headgear and his wife went to the boarding place to get it. As the young woman stooped to Editors at Williamsport The Pennsylvania State Editorial Association will hold its annual outing at Williamsport and Eaglesmere on June 27th to July 1st.

He was hurried to the Harrisburg Hospital, where the surgeons saved the little fellow's life. mother.

Last Wednesday the daughter got away from her husband and paid ner mother a delightful visit. Sometime later, the woman says, the husband heard of it, and for a time the melee was most distressing and finally resulted in the daughter calling for help from the eminence of the Philadelphia Reading railroad tracks. This being so, the Rhiver woman, who is indeed a mother in law, asked for explanations and the only cne she got, so far as she remembers, was a brown whiskey bottle floating through the air and striking her on the head. She told the hospital people n.at she lay unconscious for three hours, immediately after the accident yesterday, suffering awful pain, and she vowed she would have her assailant arrested. By that time she was properly bandaged and she was sent on her way of mercy.

give Harrisburg the assurance of continued prosperity throughout the year. There is absolutely nothing on the business horizon to cause any apprehension. Thousands of men are regularly employed at good wages and while there may be reductions of forces here and there these reductions will be by reason of completed work and will be only temporary at the worst. The paving of streets, the construction of a filtration plant, the building of sewers, the erection of a number of large buildings, not including the Capitol, and scores of dwelling houses will give steady employment to a large proportion of our population this year. All the industrial concerns in this section are in operation and the situation for the most part is entirely satisfactory.

the game was the Keystone Hotel, Slate street, and all the evidence was quietly obtained and ready for delivery this morning at a hearing before Alderman Spayd. Mrs. Hamilton and Bair were each held for court and while the alderman was making out the commitments, Hamilton drew Bair to one side and offered to withdraw the suit for ten dollars; otherwise to push the case to the limit. The alderman overheard the conversation and before the mpn had a chance to agree on the was being heard on the cnarge of blackmail. The evidence was convincing and another commitment was made in favor of Hamilton.

Indian schools, East and West, were shown, say for ten or twenty years back; also, what each school is doing to make young Indians competent to hold their own individually in American life. "The outing system at Carlisle," concluded Colonel Pratt, "which is probably the best feature of any and all the educational systems of the government, is just about as large as the outing systems of the other schools combined." Washington, D. May 23. A report pronounced absolutely without foundation reached here from Montana that the agents of the Interior Department have been in Helena some time looking1 over the ground with a view of transferring the Indian school at Carlisle, to that vicinity.

Grabbing a reyolver, he met the murderer as he attempted to escape from the house. Pellegrino retreated up stairs, Paul firing after him. Paul then got a shot gun and waited.

Finally Pellegrino looked out and Paul nearly blew his head off. He then picked up the dead body of his wife and carried it into his home, where he was, with his three little children, weeping when arrested by the officers. JUDGE BIDDLE IS OUT 1 OF THE FIGHT TO STAY Special to the Telegraph. Carlisle, May 23. Judge E.

W. Bid die is with Mrs. Biddle at the St. Louis Exposition, but it can be stated as an absolute fact that his decision not to be a candidate is irrevocable. His friends here declare emphatically the report that he even considered allowing his' name to be used as a candidate is without foundation.
