CABLE FROM THB COKRESPOND EXT OF THE LONDON TIMES AND PORTLAND ORBGONIAN. "WEI HAI WEL June 3. I have just re turned from an extended trip on board the steamer Haimun to Kinchou Bay, where I was able to glean many addi tional facts relative to the recent engage ment near that place. I was fortunate enough to meet an eye-witness to the entire battle, and he cleared up a num ber of doubtful points regarding the move ments preliminary to the ordering o the general assault. At mid-day o May 26, the KinchOu Peninsula presented "a scene of unprecedented activity, and a military spectacle seldom equaled, -40,000 Japanese troops being massed behind the western spur of Mount Sampson and under such email cover as was afforded by the Suchia tun Twin peaks. The Japanese forces -were actually within 2000 yards of the Kusstan works, and there was so little room to deploy on the isthmus that en tire batalllons of tho Japanese troops had to stand waiting waist deep in the sea until enough of their comrades had fallen before Russian "bullets to secure for them a foothold on land. Waiting Time Most Trying. The waiting time was most trying, the shells from the Russian batteries massed upon me neiguts. piougning ww. m j batteries were brought Into action from Chlllcnwang and the Ka.uchlayan flats, while the guns of the fleet kept the lino of Russian works fringed with bursting projectiles, which eventually saved the main body of the Japanese Infantry. It was mid-day when the Russian fire from the peaks of Mauchiaying village seemed to slacken, and almost immedi ately afterward the Japanese batteries mado their appearance between the Suchlantun range. They were to make a desperate effort to carry the nearest Rus sian works. In tho open, absolutely with out cover, they poured an accurate fire into the Russian position, and a half hour later tho order for a charge upon Mauchiaying was given the waiting infan try massed upon the isthmus. Like hounds released from, the leash, the little brown men started across the intervening space while tho guns of the Russians poured down hundreds of ex plosive shells, but without In any way checking the onslaught. Mowed Down Like Grass. Reaching the first lino of hills, which afforded slight cover, the Japanese infan try halted long enough to fill up the gaps In their shattered lines, and then swopt up the slope toward the Russian guns. Human power, however, could not have carried the Russian position at this time, and tho Japanese infantry was hurled back, shattered and defeated. Bullets from the Russian infantry In the trenches and from the machine guns at the top of the slope mowed down the Japanese like grass. A few who seemed to bear charmed lives managed to stagger half way up the hill to what seemed to be a depression that would afford cover from the rain of bullets. But it was a vain hope, as it was here that the Russians had strung their barbed wire obstruction, which it was 1m possible to pass. The Japanese column melted like solder before a plumber's blowpipe and within 15 minutes tho entire body of men engaged in the charge had ceased to xlst, except as a trail of mutilated bodies at the foot of the Russian entrenchments. Seeing the failure of this movement, the' Japanese gunboats and supporting artillery concon trated tholr whole fire on the one point where General Oku had determined to drive homo the wedge with which he ex pected to open the entire structure of the defense. Tho flro was so doadly that by evening the works were practicable for a general who had such troops as the Japanese, and who was willing to .take the respon slblllty of such fearful losses as must necessarily follow. The second charge was successful, as tho Japanese were able to get within bayonet length of the enemy and the latter fled, leaving their cannon to the foe. I learn that it was the mining ship Amur which laid the "mines that destroyed the Hatsuse. On the morning of the catastrophe a Japanese gunboat flotilla cut her and her escort off. I can learn nothing more of their fate, but suspect that they succeded in slipping back into Port Arthur. Port Arthur refugees state that the na- live and civilian population get only such food as arrives on junks from Chinese ports, or what thoy have received secretly. The military authorities requisitioned all available food. On half rations, it is est! mated that the garrison has enough for five months. The five damaged warships moored at the Port Arthur jetties have been de nuded of everything movable. Lieutenant General Stoessel retains a large number. of Junks in the roadstead. The object of this measure can only be conjectured. STARTS SUBMARINES TODAY. Russia Will Rush Eight Crafts to Vladivostok. SPECIAL CABLE TO THE LONDON TIMES AND PORTLAND OREGONIAN. ST. PETERSBURG. June 3. Two sub marine boats will be started for the Far East today; two others tomorrow; two more within a fortnight, and two more within a month. Their destination is Vladivostok, where it is hoped they can be used against the Japanese fleet, which is hovering off that port. The naval contractors who are refitting the Baltic fleet have been warned that all work on the vessels composing it must be completed by the first week In August. This means that this fleet, if it actually goes to the Far East, cannot reach there before December. Chinese Will Cut Railroad. SPECIAL CABLE TO THE LONDON TIMES AND PORTLAND OREGONIAN.

LAVA ASH VERY PRODUCTIVE Prinevllle Will Receive Immense Benefit When Settlers Occupy the Reclaimed SoilGovernor Addresses Mass Meeting. PRINEVILLE, Or. June 2. (Staff Cor respondence.) A glance at the altitude of tho different portions of Crook County, between Benham Falls and Prinevllle, shows why it is practicable to take water out of the Deschutes River and reclaim 250,000 to 400,000 acres of land. Tho sur face of tills whole region slopes toward the north. "Wnile there are, of course. some small tracts that have a different slope, the general character of the sur face is such that canals can be construct ed to carry water over the arid plains and distribute it so that all the land ex cept a few buttes can be irrigated. Benham Falls is ten miles south of Bend, in the Deschutes River. Tho water at the Falls does not take a precipitous drop, hut flows in a torrent down a steep and rockjr canyon. The altitude at tho point where a dam can be built to divert the water is 4100 feet above the sea level. This is 400 feet 'Or more higher than tho point above the town of Bend, where water is now being taken to irrigate 25,000 acres of land on the cast side of the Des chutes and Crooked Rivers. Nearly a Mile High. The following altitudes will show the general slope of tho country toward the north: Feet. Benham Falls , ........4.100 Bend .-....-.3.G0Q- !MrmTillo. J3hjfT.i .r. ;-.T. . .:3.200 Crooked River near Cross Keys "3,000 HaystacK .flaws z.soo Agency Plains 2,600 The distance from Benham Falls down to Bend Is ten miles, from the Falls to Prinevllle 40 miles, from the Falls to Hay stack Plains 45 miles, and from the Falls to Agency Plains 55 miles. The plan of the Deschutes Irrigation & COLONEL OBJECTOR VEATCH If I Could Get in Those Tracks I Might Get to Washington. ' i- : - .'- s i ii i ni t Power Company is to take the -water from ' tho Deschutes River at Benham Falls and cary it in an easterly direction to a point nearly south of Prinevllle. Tha canal will then circle around toward the north. bringing the water to the tablelands south and west of this city, and even to the city Itself if occasion requires. In this manner a canal will be construct ed, following around the edge of the foot hills at such a height that laterals can distribute the water from the main ca nal to all the region, enclosed by the ca nal arid Crooked River. The waste water, if any, will be turned into Crooked River, where it will return to the Deschutes, as may be seen by reference to tho map published in Wednesday's Oregonlan. In Its- general character the land be tween Bend and Prineville Is a great' plain, with very slight undulations. The soil is commonly called a lava ash, and Is very productive when watered. The whole tract, in Its natural state, la covered with sagebrush, with scattering Juniper trees on most of it. Of this whole tract, containing 250,000 acres of vacant land, 140,000 acres can be irrigated with water taken from tho Deschutes River, three miles above Bend. Further Contract Desired. In addition to this 140,000 acres, for tho reclamation of which a contract- has. al ready been let, the Deschutes Irrigation & Power Company has applied to the State Land Board for a contract to -irri gate 80,000 acres lying south and east of the original tract. This 80,000 acres, and probably a considerable portion of the 140,000-acro tract, will bo watered from the Benham Falls Canal. North of Crooked River are tho Haystack and Agency Plains districts, which, .together with other lands in private ownership. will make another 150.000 acres of arid land that can bo reached by the Deschutes company's canals. This will make a total of 400,000 acres that will come under tho Deschutes sys tem. Much of this will not ho reached for many years to come. Because of its proximity to Priuevllle.'-tho Benham Falls Canal project is of particular interest to the residents of this city, Prineville Will Get Benefit. The members of the State Land Board visited Prinevilio yesterday on their re turn from a tour of all the land which is to be reclaimed. In the. evening they were tendered a reception by the people of th city, wbn they explained in brief addresses the benefits that will follow the successful completion of the irrigation system. As Governor Chamberlain intimated in his address, some people of Prinevllle have been Inclined to look with some Jealousy upon the development of an en terprise which promises to build up a sec tion of the country remote from the city that has been for so many years the bus ines and political center of the county. Though no organised effort has ever been madB.-to place anything in tha way of .thopDeschutca enterprises,, noma residents oT'Prlnei'itio have -felt 'tUt -the building of a populous community in the western part of the. county would make Prineville of relatively less importance, and, per haps, impair her commercial interests. No Ground for Jealousy. In his address Governor Chamberlain sought to discourage any feeling of jeal- (Concluded on Page 12.) IS IF! CHARGES Roosevelt Picks Man for Alaskan Mission. OFFICIALS ARE ASSAILED Governor Is Represented to Be Non-Progressive. JUDGES ALSO HELD AT FAULT Although. Terms of Brady, Brown and -Wickersham Will Expire Mon . -day, No Changes Will Be Made Until After Investigation. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash ington, June Z Notwithstanding the terms of Governor John G. Brady and Judges, Melville C. Brown and James wicKersnam, or Alaska, all expire on Monday next.- their-successors will not be appointed until the latter part of Sum mer, and possibly not before Congress convenes in December. Meanwhile, the incumbents will serve, as if their terms had not expired. The delay Is occasioned by the deter mination of tho President to know all about the past administration of these three officials, all of whom are resting under more or less serious cha'rges, and whose conduct has been more or less vig orously assailed. The President and Attorney-General Knox have been, for some time, looking for some reliable man to investigate the Alaskan offices mentioned, and today se lected United States Attorney James S Young, of Pittsburg1, who has been tem porarily appointed an Assistant Attorney General, while on duty In Alaska. He will particularly investigate the charges against the two Judges, who are candi dates for reappointment, and will also look into Brady's administration, which is assailed as nonprogressive and more or less Inefficient. Young will also look into the conduct of the office of Judge Alfred S. Moore, who succeded Judzb Noyes, "some "pi wh"oTo subordinates -arc charged with incompetency and wrongdoing-. He will report to the President the result of his investigation, which is to begin as soon as he can reach Alaska. Signal Officer Going to Alaska. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, June 2. Captain Leonard D. Wild man, signal corps, has been relieved from duty in the office of the Chief Signal Of ficer, to take effect July L when he will proceed to St. Michael and Nome, for the purpose of installing a signal corps sys tem of wireless station at Nome and for duty pertaining to the installation of a wireless system across Norton Sound. POTTER MAY BE TRANSFERRED Charges Against Chemawa Official Still Under Consideration. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, June 2. It is quite probable, in case Superintendent Potter, of the Che mawa Indian School, is not dismissed, that he will be transferred to some other school, where he will havo less respon sibility, and where ha will receive less salary than at Salem. While no disposi tion has been made of the case, it is evi den that the department views Potter's offenses more gravely than do the inspect ing officials, who recently sifted affairs at Salem. Potter's position is one of the most im portant in the Indian service, being one of the four largest school superintenden- cies. Department officials are Inclined to regard Some of his violations of regula tions as inexcusable, and of a. serious na ture, and for this reason are not favor able to allowing him to retain his pres- sent position. Indian Commissioner Jones has not re turned, hence no action has been taken on the case. National Bank for Dallas. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, June 2. The application of R. W. Hoyt, R. L.

Tacoma, by Her Cruise, Performs a Great Service to Navigation. SAN FRANCISCO, June 2. The United States ship Tacoma, Captain R. F. Nlch ols, from Honolulu -ay 19, arrived here today, having spent four days, from May 24 to May 23, cruising in search of doubt ful shoals, heretofore reported in the neighborhood of 17 degrees north latitude, and 136 degrees west longitude. The Ta and saw no signs of land. Jame3 D. Hague, of New York, who, by authority of the Secretary of the Navy, accompanied the Tacoma for the purpose of participating in the search, says this result is absolutely conclusive, so far as it concerns the ocean area actually seen from the track line of the Tacoma. Tho area thus examined is about one-third of the questionable region where islands have been occasionally reported. The search of the Tacoma was restricted to four days by her limited coal supply. A3 she carried no appliances for deep-sea soundings, her explorations were wholly superficial. The results afford no hoped-for light on the loss of the United States ship Levant, which disappeared mysteriously In 1S60 on her voyage from Hawaii to Panama, and is now believed to have been wrecked on rocks somewhere in her track. In other respects, the result of the Tacoma's cruise is beneficial, since it tends to the ulti mate removal from the charts of an ex isting menace to navigation.

Hun areas or prospectors and miners hav taken locations within the past few day on Nipple Mountain, about 13 miles south of this district, where a gold-bearing lode Id feet wide has been discovered. Samples of ore from the dike which have been assayed run from $12 to $100 per ton in gold. It is estimated that 1000 claims have already been staked in the new dis trlct.

WILD SCENE AT CONVENTION Only the Police Prevented a Fight at Springfield. DEADLOCK STILL UNBROKEN Republicans Try Hard to End the Struggle, Cannon Makes Strong Plea, but Last Vote for Gov ernor Shows No Change. SPRINGFIELD, HI., June 2. A desper ate effort on the part of Republican lead ers to break the deadlock in the State Convention failed today, and at 8 o'clock tonight the assemblage took a recess un til 10 A. M. tomorrow without having nominated a candidate for Governor. The attempt to bring the break about was a spectacular one. Ex-Congressman Walter Reeves, chairman of the commit tee on resolutions, and Chairman Cannon engineered the plan, which was made pos sible by the report of .the committee on resolutions, which presented tho resolution it originated, and which was referred to the committee at yesterday's session. This resolution was to the effect that the dele gates be released from instructions, and when it was presented, Mr. Reeve3 called upon the candidates one by one to come before the convention and express their opinion regarding it. Each declared in favor of the resolution, speaking in the order named: Frank O. Lowden, Governor Richard E. Tates, Charles S. Deneen, Attorney-General H. J. Hamlin, Lawrence Y. Sherman, Congress man Warner and John H. Pierce. Cannon Urges a Compromise. - Congressman Cannon demanded the at tention, of the convention, and eloquently pleaded with the delegates to break the deadlock; He declared the delegates must compromise and called attention to th -fact that the convention by its .action wa Injuring, tho Republican ,party, not only " Illinois, hut in the entire Nation. " "Let us adopt'this resolution," he sa'id, "and nominate a ticket, and let us do it today." There was not a vote against the reso lution, but when the roll was called for the 67th ballot, there was no substantial change from the ballots of the previous day. On the next ballot taken before tho noon recess, a number of the unlnstructed delegates voted for Judge Sherman, whoso speech before the convention had made a good impression, and he received 80 votes. When the convention reconvened for the afternoon session, the long-expected break from Yates to Lowden came, and he got tho vote of Speaker Cannon's district, as well as the votes of several other coun ties, and some scattering delegates. For several ballots his vote Increased until ho reached a vote of 631J&. Then the tide turned and on the closing ballot, the TSth, his vote had dropped to 532. It re quired 752 to nominate. Yates' lowest vote during the day was 362 and his closing vote was 405. There was no material change in the vote of the other candidates. The last ballot tonight, the 78th, re sulted: Tates . t.t.n. 405 Lowden 5324 Deneen ....... 3G5 Hamlin 102 Warner ........... 2S2 Sherman .: 45 Plerco 24 Only Police Prevent a Fight. Much excitement prevailed during the afternoon session. Lowden shouters started several demonstrations in efforts to stampede the convention and they made a great din. When Lowden began to fall back, the Yates people began a demon stration and let down from the girders a great banner bearing the quotation, "Hold the fort." Chairman Cannon ordered it taken down. Sheriff Bralnerd, of Springfield; W. J. Bntler and other Hamlin men leaped upon the tables, tore it from its fasten ings and threw the wreck into the Morgan County (Yates) delegation. A free-for-all fight was prevented only by the interfer ence of the police. The banner, after its rescue by the Yates men, was hung, up in the rear of the platform. Speaker Can non made a statement, saying Yates was not responsible for the incident. Penrose Succeeds Quay on Committee WASHINGTON, June 2. Postmaster General Payne, as acting chairman of tho Republican National Convention, has ap pointed United States Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, a member of the commit tee, to suceed the late Senator Quay. In speaking of the appointment today, Acting Chairman Payne said it was per fectly natural for him to do what he knew was in Senator Quay's mind. In fact, he said, Senator Quay, anticipating that his illness probably would prevent him attending the Convention, some time ago, had delivered his proxy to his col league in the Senate.
