It was rumored some weeks ago that William H. High, one of the Bank Commissioners, had been tendered the position of manager of the International Bank -Corporation of this city, vlpe Colonel F. Beck, The rumor was well founded ah4 Mr. High has had the matter under consideration ever since and has been In negotiation with the head office in New York. It is presumed that the conference has terminated satlsf actorily, as the announcement of his appointment to the position has just come to band from New York.

i Mr. High is absent from the city In the performance of bis official duties. He Is serving as a Bank Commissioner under a four-year term, for which he was appointed by Governor Pardee on June 30, 1903. So far as known, he has not resigned from that office, but as the new position Is considered a more lucrative one and likely to be more permanent, his action In the matter can be easily, surmised. A ILL CONTEST Joseph Mcllwalnes contest of the will of his late mother, Margaret Elizabeth Florilla Jellett Mcllwaihe, provoked this morning the filing by the heirs of an answer to his contest.

Mrs. Mcllwalne left an estate valued at about $80,000 to her husband and children, her brother J. Jellett being named as executor. The executor, was to supply Joseph Mcllwalne with needed funds for expenses, but the young man declared that Jellett would not even advance money sufficient to purchase clothes in which he could attend his mother's funeral. Other features of the affair were not to Joseph taste and he prepared to contest the will, alleging that his mother was not of "sound and disposing mind" when she made her will, that the father, Joseph Mcllwalne SrM unduly Influenced the dying motlw er in cutting off young Mcllwalne, thai she sustained a shock many years ago which so affected her mnttal faculties that she could not be considered sound mentally when she made the will.

The heirs, who are Sarah, Elizabeth, Martha and Maria Mcllwalne, deny all their brother's assertions, and pray that the will of their mother be admitted to probate.

FIERCELY Japanese Tried Hard to Capture Port Arthur. CHE FOO, October 4. :50 p. m.

A private letter received today from Port Arthur, dated September 23, gives further details of the fighting from September 19 to September 22. attack began with a heavy bombardment directed against nearly all the Russian outposts and many of the main forts. The shelling of the redoubts protecting the water supply of Port Arthur was tremendous Nightfall September 19 found the waterworks redoubts reduced to mere heaps of debris. The garrisons of the redoubts thereupon retreated safely to the main fortifications under the cover of darkness. At four o'clock the same afternoon, the Japanese assault on "High Hill" began.

The Japanese plan of attack never varied. First a bombardment and than an assault and when repulsed a bombardment again and then another assault. The desperate determination of the Japanese to capture this position amounted to fanaticism, their efforts never ceasing during four days. One battalion of Japanese having retreated into a valley, were exposed to the Russian shrapnel fire and were almost annihilated. Eventually the Japanese succeeded in placing one field gun and two machine guns in position behind hastily made barriers.

Their tenure of the position, owing to the fire of the inner forts, was very insecure and when Lieutenant Poggorsky and the volunteers charged the tide turned against them. One battalion, composed of the remnants of two companies, was annihilated in trenches, which they refused to desert. Another detachment was driven into the Russian entagleuoents, where Captain Sychaff's force was waiting and completed Its rout. Two other attempts made by the Japanese to retake the positions failed.

OAttLANP 4-? iV' ILL IT FIGHT jKuropatkin Said to Be Ready to' Run Again. ST. PETERSBURG, October 65 p. m. Emperor Nicholas returned to St.

Petersburg to-day. from the south an dthe Associated Press hears on veryj high authority that the appointment of a commander-in-chief will be announced within forty-eight hours. Whele General Kuropatkin's friends still Insist that he will be appointed, members of the Emperor's entourage express no doubt that Grand Duke Nicholas Ndcholaievltch will be chosen. The official advices from the front to-day report that all Is quiet along the whole line of the opposing armies. A slight Japanese movement has been observed at Feng Tal Pu, about sixteen miles southeast of Mukden, but there has been no collision.

The War Office apparently does not anticipate any fighting on a large scale in the immediate future. The principal cause of alarm at the War Office is occasioned by the lack of definite, information regarding the exact whereabouts of Field Marshal Oyama's right. The Russian scouts have lost touch wit hGeneral Kuropatkin's main army which may give Increasing Importance to the flanking west under General Oku, which hither to has been regarded as a feint for the real turning movement to strike at General Kuropatkin's line of communication from the east. It also may conttain the potentiates of a big surprise. Ten days ago Kuro-patkln and the War Office were convinced that the Japanese were concentrating at Sianchan and that an immediate advance was imminent in force.

Accordingly the Russians fell back from the passe sot the Da mounttain ranges without offering resistance. Kuropatkin's plans are carefully guarded. While he Is disposing his forces to take advantage of any situation that may offer the best opinion is that he will not accept a general engagement but will withdraw to Tie Pass, where the bulk of his army Is massed.
