The Chinese had fled with all poHsilile speed ever since the 13th , when their poaition waa captured by the en emy. They wero then In a rather do moralized condition, and were milking for Moukden. Katxura decided to inter cept them. He left camp the night of the 18th with his whole force, and the next morning overtook the Chinese at the village of Kong U'asai, where they made an obstinate stand, although in poor condition. They were nearly 10 000 strong, and were able to force some tierce Hunting upon the Japanese. In the midst of the battle Uehiina'a brigade from Hai Chang came np and gave Kut siira active support. The Chinese held out with surprising bravery. They faced the well-directed fire from five Japanese batteries and fought desperately, al though without ellecttve organization. The Japanese infantry charged twice through the scattered lines, but the en emy rallied. Three bayonet charges eventually won the day for Katsura after five hours of hottest lighting yet experi enced by the second army.

People of Drought-Blasted brttska Must be Helped. Ne- Niobrara, Neb., December 25. The suffering among the inhabitants of the dronght-blasted part of Nebraska, in eluding three-fourths of the residents of five counties, ia becoming more intense daily, and immediate etepe alone can pre vent many deaths by starvation. Three years ago the farmers of these drought blighted counties raised a very light crop, and the last two years the crops have been almost total failures. Many fam ilies have not enough provisions in their homes for one week's sustenance and no money with which to purchase the ne cessities of life. The sufferers cannolob tain employment and unless they receive aid very soon, it is the general opinion that many will Btarve to death, and should the weather turn very cold many will freeze to death, as it la a fact that many are barefooted and have scarcely sufficient clothing to cover their naked ness. A mother and her two babes were found dead in their cabin this week. It is supposed the mother had been con fined to ber bed by sickness and that she and her two little ones starved to death. The stomachs of the children wereopened and not a trace of food could be discov ered. SHERIFF O'MARR'S VOW. A Montana Murderer Taken Back to An swer for HI. Crime. Denver, December 25.

In the Supreme Court to-day Mr. Davis, repre senting the city of Oakland in the water front case, continued his argument. He waa followed by John K. Cowan of Bal timore, who appears for the Southern Pacific Company He confined himself to a discussion of the power of the Leg islature of California to grant the water front. He reviewed the opinion of the Supreme Court in the Chicago lake-front case, and took ground that in that case the court viewed the act of the Legisla ture of Illinois as a dedicaliou to the Il linois Central of the government's con trol ami regulation of the waters of I-ake Michigan along the city front of Chi cago. He maintained that in the pres ent case the grant by California was an ordinary disposition of the State's sulr- merged lands, made in the exercise ol the power to control public property and rights. He claimed that the act of 1852, making the grant, showed on its face the exercise of legislative discretion and the intention of the Legislature that within the line of actual navigation pub lic righ s in tidal waters should yield to the right of private ownership In order a. 1 A. 1 I 1 iil.l iL.t umt. an iinergeu lanus wiui n um mm .long hlf) route.

Cowan de clared the decision in the Chicago case so far from supporting the claims of the State of California in the present case was authority for the railroad company. BURNS HAS A PANACEA.

Mr. Burns spoke on "Trades Unions and Social and Municipal lie-form.".-Th conditions in this country, he said, surprised him, and lie saw the beginning or great proDlems aa to tne beet ineana by which the social and in dUBtrial interests ol tne producers could be subserved. He urged unification of trades unions in all social aud political questions. In citing some of the causes that had produced l ie great and grow ing disparity between the rich and poor he said : " Underconsumption, overproduction and the salamaniu selfishness of greedy monopoly have produced the vagrants and me vanuermits. ine one is an enormity and the other a monstrosity. As the per-centage of the share of the laborer in ins product nas decreased, that of the capitalist has increased. Just now the currency conjurors are kicking up a duet to blind you to the situation at the same time increasing the great disparity." As a remedy for this Mr. Burns sug gested Socialism pure and simple.
