St. Petersburg, March 14. It was

changed and that the reports that that
place had been evacuated by the Rus
sian forces are without foundation,
Referring to the last bombardment,
it Is said the Russian and Japanese tor

the encounter. One of the former was
surrounded and captured by the Japs
who had to let It go as it was sinking,
and It soon went down.

Toklo correspondent says: "Kind
treatment of the wounded Russian sea

Kurtz Family Were Victims of At
tempted Robbery in Salem.
There was an attempt at robbery in
North Salem Friday night, says the
Salem Statesman.
Miss Millie Agee, of Roseburg,
daughter of Hon. Ben. Agee, formerly
sheriff of Douglas county, is visiting
with her Bister, Mrs. C.J. Kurtz. They
were alone at the home of Mr. and Mrs,
C. . J. Kurtz, on North Commercial
street, on Friday night. They were
aroused at about midnight, by some
noise, and In their half wakened con
dition they realized that there was a
light in the next room. Miss Agee
had been sleeping in the front part of
the bed, and Mrs. Kurtz on being
aroused realized that her sister was
gasping for breath from an application
of chloroform. Mrs. Kurtz was not
badly frightened, but she made the

MISSING MAN
J. C. Conn Has Disappeared
From Silver Late.
NO TRACE CAN BE FOUND
Case is Mysterious as He Was Well
Known and Well Liked in ,
The Community.
Hod. D. S. K. Buick received a letter
yesterday from his son, Walter Buick,
who lives at Silver Lake, Oregon,
giving some details relating to the
mysterious disappearance of J. C. Conn
from that place. This letter relates,
among other things, that Mr. Conn left
his store in the town of Silver Lake
about 7 o'clock a. m. on Friday, March
4th, without saying anything to his
clerk, Frank Paine, as to his intended
departure. The weather was cold and
the ground frozen, yet he took neither
overshoes nor wraps of any kind. Ho
was last seen going toward the bridge
over Silver Creek, northwest of town.
As Mr. Paine supposed he had gone
awuy to attend to some business matters
no special attention was given to htu
absence during the day. As he failed
to return to the store the next morning
Mr. Paine became alarmed and about
noon started two men out quietly to in
vestigate, still thinking Mr. Conn had
perhaps only gone out to some of the
adjacent stock ranches and stayed ovor
night. No trace being discovered, the
whole community was notified and a
general search begun. This was kept
up from day to day and the whole sur
rounding country was thoroughly gone
ovor, and even the creek was dragged,
but up to 0:40 p. m. Tuesday, March 8,
no trace of the missing man had been
found.
Theories of both accident and suicide
have been advanced, and in connection
with the latter it was re mo in be red by
some that a shot was heard in the
vicinity of the bridge on Friday morn
ing. An old pistol is also missing from
the store, although Mr. Conn's two
good revolvers woro still there In tholr
usual place. Mr. Conn had apparently
been despondont over tlio Ions of his
threo fine frolght wagons, vulued at
9IRK), which were recently burned, and
the death of a very valuablo horse.
Hut these circumstances, uf course,
prove nothlngr His business in the
store Is, said to be excellent. Inter
mittent chi nooks had swelled the creek
almost out of its banks since Mr. Conn
disappeared, making any search there
in very diflliuilt. Ho was a highly es
teemed citizen and Mr. Buick expresses
it the desire of al! that he may yet be
found In safety.
Mr. Conn was formerly a resident of
Douglas county and as widely and
favorably known here. Four of his
brothors: Hon. J. W.Conn, IJ. S. Conn,
Henry Conn and Frank Conn, now live
a few miles northwest of Itoseburg.
He was unmarried.
Mr. Frank Conn was in town today,
but bad heard nothing about the dis
appearance of his brother, except what
was In the letter received by Mr.
Ituick.

very successful. He Berved as County
Judge from 18S0 to 1884. In connection
with L. E. Young and Gov. George E.
Chamberlain, Mr. Flinn purchased the
