RUSSIANS' LOSE 700 MEN Attackers Make Several Desperate Chargeson the Position, but Are Repulsed Military Ware house Is Bombarded. CHEFOO, Not. 10. Itz Mountain, according to Chinese, 120 of whom-arrived here today from Port Arthur, is proving a costly obstacle to the Japanese. On tho mornings of November 5 and C fierce as saults on the position were made by the Japanese, who were repulsed. During the second assault a shell, soaring over the other hills from Pallcbung, dropped on Itz Mountain and demolished a mine and the mine-controlling station and exploded other mines. The Russians were holding the trenches on the boundary of the mined sections. Between COO and 700 were killed or wound ed. The Japanese, having not reached the place, were unhurt. Itz Mountain owes the best part of its strength to the peculiar topography of the surrounding country, which prevents a di rect artillery fire and does not enable the Japanese to advance trenches with the success evident elsewhere. The Japanese advanced on it In both Instances from behind distant hills, with the fullest forco the ground would allow, but in the long distances which they were compelled to traverse in the face of ma chine guns their ranks were melted. Both times thejJapanese broko the wire entan glements in places. One soldier with a leg torn off was seen trying to bite the wires. ALEXIEFF IN ST. PETERSBURG. Comrades of the Viceroy Enthusias tically Welcome Him Home. ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 10. Admiral Alexleff, Viceroy In the Far East, ar raved in St. Petersburg this evening. In anticipation of his arrival, tho Nevsky Prospect was -crowded with sightseers, but access to the railway platform was restricted to officials and newspaper correspondents. When a man of short, stout figure tnd bronzed vlsago emerged from one of the cars of the special Tales of the Street and Town ES, SHtBE," began the head waiter, "you'd say there was : hean o human nature In the world If you was to sling hash a while In a restaurant. That bill o' fare Is one proof of It. Dr. Dingle, who eats here, was telling me the other day that every man, woman and child has exactly the same number and kind o' nerves running from their brains to their palates and tongues, but that they's all got differ ent brains. Which Is why them'ere nerves make some people think 'they llker sau sage and sauerkraut, and others that they don't." He brushed a crumb off the table and gazed pityingly down at me, as I dug Into a platter of corn- beef-and-cabbage. "That's why you've gotto have a long list "There's a heap o of different kinds o human nature In grub an different the restaurants." ways of "cookln the same thing to satisfy all them different kinds o' brains. "There's a heap o human nature in restaurants, as I was sayln. Even wait ers have some of It, though most patrons look on 'em as a kind of machines. They forget that a hasher's got feelings, an that he sees and hears and thinks same's everybody else. Some people generally would-bes and and bo rn-sos think they should treat waiters an clerks an work ing people generally just a little differ ent than they should lawyers an' doctors and gamblers and ministers and such. Now, there's things happens here every day that would make a book, If you could write It." fKfOU know. Southerner, the fellow I that runs the little cigar-stand up street?

" 'No, says I, 'It's $3.15.' "Well, he Just Insisted, and finally he demands to look at my little book, for the Items. I pulls out the drawer and gets the book. Just then I recollected that when I put the first item down last week I couldn't think of Southerner's name,' so I'd written ' his nickname Nosey' which we give him here, at the top of the page. Well, I pretended to give a quick glance at the account, and then said: '"You're right It's 52.90.' "and flipped the book back Into the drawer quick as a flash. I had to put 25 cents from my own pocket Into the till to pay for that break." DUT that isn't what I was goln' to D talk about. Restaurant and hotel patrons are a heap too brash about sayln' they've left packages and umbrel las and demanding that the' chap that waited on 'em be made to give Up what they lost. "Hardly a day passes but somebody In sults us by practically charging us with stealing. " Then they go 'way mad and come back an hour later saying that 'It's all right,' they 'found It on the piano,' or 'behind the door' at home.' "Joe Pendleton ran In yesterday and says to me: " "Give me my umbrella. I left it on the counter here when I paid my check.' " 'Excuse me says I 'but if you'd left that umbrella there. Mr. Pendleton, I'd seen it and taken care of It for you. I've been here all the time." " 'But I know I left It here. It was solid gold-headed," and T wouldn't take $50 for it."

Men With Tools and Materials Ap parehtly Intended to Make Sure There Were No Flaws. Contractor Rlner, who built the new Tanner-Creek sewer, was apprehended at midnight last night by Officer Ogg at the manhole of the sewer at Sixteenth and Ai der streets, where the contractor had a force of men and materials, apparently to repair flaws in the sewer before the in spection by the committee appointed to inspect the sewer for the city. The sewer has been completed and ac cepted by the City Engineer. A pecial committee, however, was ordered to Inves tigate the sewer before It was formally accepted by the city. .Councilman Sigler was chairman of the committee, and It came to his ears that there were certain bad flaws In the sewer which rendered it unsatisfactory. It is said that as eoon aa Contractor Rlner learned of the Impending investiga tion, he planned to descend upon the sewer in the dead of night, have men and mate rials ready, and repair the flaws before the committee's investigation. Mr. Siegler heard of this also and journeyed, last night, to the Police Station, where he un folded the plot, and asked Captain Moore, to have an officer etop the work, should It be commenced. Mr. Sigler explained that, as the City Engineer had accepted the sewer. Contractor Rlner had no business on the premises. Captain Moore detailed Officer Ogg, and Officer Ogg descended npon the conspira tors just as Contractor Rlner and his men were about to lower materials in the man hole and commence work. Officer Ogg or dered the men away, and then stood guard until relieved at 1 o'clock this morning by another police officer. If there are flaws In the sewer the .members of the committee will now find them when they make their visit. TOTJSG GULLS ABE A2LBESTED Charges! With Sustaining Improper Relations With Foreigners.
