LONDON, Nov.. 30. According to a
Toklo dispatch, to the Standard, there is
mi -official -iairaor that ihe Japanese have
hauled .large caliber guns to the top of
203-Metef -Hill, -whence their Are has a
gweep of the -whole liarbor. This report
doubtless goes "beyond the facts; but
-various dispatches indicate the progress
the Japanese are making in the reduction
of Port Arthur. Japanese here explain
the great importance of the capture of
203-Meter Hill, which, besides giving com
mand of the harbor, will serve as a wide
breach made by the wedge the Japanese
had previously driven In between the Etz
group and the Russians' last retreat In
the ravines of Laotle Mountain. They
declare that retreat to Laotle will be
effectually cut off, and It is not unlikely
that Laotle will be simultaneously at
tacked in the final assault.
Bennett Burleigh wires to the Dally
Telegraph from Chefoo that in the last
assault the Japanese lost 400 men in one
hour's fighting. They claim to have cap
tured two more of the nortneastern fort3
and a third, which is part of the "West
Kekwan fort. They assert, Mr. Burleigh
adds, to have effected a lodgment at
Pigeon Bay, thus turning the fort on
203-Mete.r.Hlll, and that they are now tun
neling from the gorge below Laotle Hill,
which they hope first to damage and then
rush. The dispatch continues:
"Desperate lighting Is proceeding dally,
and the losses are admitted to be ex
cessive, but the Japanese insist that
Port Arthur must fall within 21 days."
The Morning Post's correspondent at
Shanghai telegraphs that wireless com
munication has been re-established be

and the Port Arthur garrison.
Russia Fears Crisis Is at Hand.
ST. PETERSBURG. Nov. 30, 3:28 A. M.
Foreign reports o the fighting at Port
Arthur are accepted here very seriously.
If the Japanese have taken 203-Meter
!Hill, as reported, commanding the whole
Siarbor, It is believed that the situation is
critical. Experts on Port Arthur topo
graphy assert however, that it is more
likely that the Japanese have occupied
some positions at the base of the bill, and
believe that owing to the concentrated fire
of the covered forts the Japanese will find
the top of the hill untenable if they ar
rive there.
Declare Attack Has Ceased.
BERLIN, Nov. 30. A" dispatch "-from
Toklo to the Tagllsche Rundschau reports
that the Japanese storming of Port Ar
thur was abandoned on November 28, be
cause, though large breaches had been
made in the Sungshu, Rihlung and Kek

enter on account of the heavy fire from
the other forts and the resistance of the
garrison.

LIBERALS TOO BOLD
Leading Editor Says Russian
Reforms Will Be Delayed,
AUTOCRACY MUST PREVAIL
Foremost Spokesman of the Policy
Goes On to Say People Have No
Conception of the Meaning of
Constitutional Government.
ST. PETERSBURG. Nov. 29. Prince
Meschersky, editor of the Crasbdanln,
and the foremost spokesman of the
autocracy, holds that the Inauguration
of such reforms as are at present pos-
slDle In Russia has been actually preju
diced by "the. irresponsible agitation
for a constitution which is now in
progress." Autocracy he considers vital
to the life and future greatness of
Russia as a nation. Liberal reforms, he
maintains, are necessary, but they can
not be introduced except by the. au
tocracy. Moreover, declares the Prince, a
broad plan of reform was already
mapped out for gradual Introduction
-when the whole work was thrownHbto
confusion by the Liberal reboundamc-
companied by the discussion of a in
stitution, which followed Minister von
Flehve's death. Speaking to the Asso
ciated Press today. Prince Mestchersky
said:
"The question is often asked, why not
introduce a constitution? Russia might
as well ask an American or a Briton
why not introduce autocracy? A con
stitution Is just as necessary to Great
Britain or the" United States as au
tocracy Is for Russia. Russia without
autocracy would cease to be Russian.
The greatest contemporary Russian
statesmen, men of the most command
ing intellect like M. WItte, aro of this
opinion.
Constitutional government Is impos
sible in Russia for the simple reason
that the vast majority of the peoplo
have not the slightest conception of
Its meaning. There are, perhaps, 100,000
Russians who want a constitution, and
as they do all the talking, while the
remaining 150,000,000 are voiceless, the
impression goes abroad that the sen
timent of the majority of the nation
desires a change in the form of gov
ernment Would Be Shortlived.
"If a constitution were Introduced to
morrow, it would be shortlived for the
simple reason that it would not be
based upon the ideas or wishes of the
people, and therefore it would only
Impede real and lasting reforms. Con
stitutional government would prove an
actual danger, because tho nation in
cludes races like the Poles and those
of the Baltic territory, who are more
advanced and developed that the rest
They would consequently soon obtain
a predominence in the Parliament
which would call forth the opposition
of the great mass of the population
and lead to tho disintegration of the
nation.
"Wo want reforms;, not a constitution.
I contend that reform is attainable only
through autocracy. The Imperial mani
festo of February, 1901, laid down a basis
of reform, which the government was
carefully preparing and gradually but
Burelyr carrying out when Von Plehve's
untimely end put & sudden stop to the
work. The fundamental Idea of this re
form Is to extend local government by
the creation of a small Zemstvo, thus be
stowing the widest possible measure of
self-government The project contemplat
ed a complete reorganization of the pres
ent form of ZcmstvoB, whereby local af
fairs would be submitted to the control of
those Immediately Interested, and ques
tions affecting the provinces at large
would be referred to a representative pro
vincial council under the presidency of
the Governor.
"Once local government should be estab
lished upon a firm basis, it was the in
tention of the sovereign to reform the cen
tral administration at St Petersburg. This
would probably be begun with the Intro
duction of Ministerial responsibilities. The
Council of the Ministry, which Is now
purely a perfunctory body, would sit un
der the presidency of the sovereign, thus
doing away with the irresponsibility of
Ministers. At present each Minister has
his own programme or policy, often in
conflict with other Ministers.
"The reforms would next Include the in
troduction of representative members in
the Council of the Empire, giving the
nation a voice in legislation. The Sen
ate would be restored to the primary func
tion for which It was created by Peter
the Great of controlling the administration
of the law and thus becoming a strong
safeguard against arbitrariness In admin
istration.

CHINESE ORDERED DEPORTED
Ngum Lun May Is Unable to Convince
Commissioner Siaden.
Ngum Lun May, a Chinaman, had his
hearing before United States Commis
sioner J. A. Siaden on the charge of
illegal residence, and was ordered de
ported. The caso was Btubbornly defended
and Ngum Lun will take an appeal.
The defense submitted that May had ar
rived In this country In 1SSS and that dur
ing the registration period he wa3 a mer
chant In San Francisco. It was contended
that under such circumstances it had not
been necessary for the defendant to take
out registration papers and that he had
not done so for this reason.
Tho testimony on the point of May's
career as a merchant was not sufficient
to satisfy the commissioner, and the fur
ther fact that May Is now a laborer
brought the order for deportation. The
appeal will bring the case before Judge

workmen in the world can
do so much or use the same
intelligence that our own
American work -men and
women are capable of. That is why
America is now beating the world in
manufactures: all due to the brain
and muscle of our Yankee men and
women.
Unfortunately where there is smoke,
dirt and dust and little sunlight there
also can be found the germs of dis
ease. Nature's great disinfectant is
sunlight Sunlight and fresh air pro
mote the growth of animals and plants
but kill the germs of disease. Air,
free from dust, such as we have on
the sea, never permits the germs of
disease to have any chance for growth
and development. It is in the fac
tory, the work-shop, the office, that
men and women suffer from diseases
which are in the dust and the bad
air. Such disease germs enter into,
the blood in two ways, either through
the lungs or stomach. If the blood
is pure and rich, the liver and stom
ach in healthy active condition, the
germs of disease cannot find a resting
place there to multiply. Disease of
the lungs, bronchitis, and consump
tion, are very apt to spread through
a factory where there is much fine
dust in the air. The lungs become
irritated and the germs, find a fertile
field for growth. Extreme weakness,
feelings of aervous exhaustion, coughs
and colds are the warning signals
which should be heeded. One should
put the system in the very best possi
ble condition right away.
After years or experience in an zc-t
tive practice, Dr. Fierce discovered, a
remedy that suited these conditions
in a blood-maker and tissue-builder,
which at the same time alleviates the
cough. He called it Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery an altera
tive extract that assists in the diges
tion and assimilation of the food in
the stomach so that the blood gets
what it needs for food and oxidation,
the liver is. at the same time started
into activity and there is perfect
elimination of waste matter. When
the blood is pure and rich, all the
organs work without effort, and the
body is like a perfect machine; if,
however, any part is allowed to rust,
and this human machine does not
get its full supply of rich red blood
(which acts like oil on machinery),
then new fields are created in which
the bacteria or germs of disease thrive
and multiply. The germs of grip,
malaria, catarrh or consumption find
a fertile field if the body is not kept in
perfect order and the blood pure. No

religions. When friends approached
Chauncey M. Depew, her guardian, he
said he approved the choice made by his

"Tho Count is a- very anle-jnan," said

long as he has one."

Mr. Roy A. Reed, of Casper, Wyoming,
writes : "For eight years I had catarrh
of the throat in the very worst form ;
could hardly speak above a whisper for
two years. Tried nearly a dozen patent
medicines withoutTrclief: " I was'sodis-'
couraged that I just about decided ca
tarrh could not be cured with any medi
cine. My father, however, advised me"
to try Dr. Pierce's medicines before giv
ing up. I followed his advice and com
menced using the medicine on the twen- '
tieth of December. I was surprised to
note-the result of the first month's treat
ment After using six bottles of Dr.
rierce's Golden Medical Discovery, I
was perfectly cured. It has been months
since I took the last medicine, and I
have not had the least return of my
trouble. I have felt better during the."
past two months than for seven winters
previous to this time."
Mrs. Lydia James, of Ogdensburg,
Wis., writes : "In regard to your medi
cine will say that the 'Golden Medical
Discovery' is a God-send to suffering
women. I was sick in bed with liver
complaint and kidney disease arid fever
when I began to take Dr. Pierce's Gold--en
Medical Discovery. In ten davs'
time I was so I could begin to get around
the house, and gained right along. After
that, took about five bottles of it and am
sure. I would have been in my grave by
this time had it not been for this1 rem
edy.. I would advise all suffering women
to use Dr. Pierce's medicines."
C P.- Spencer, of Piano, Ofcla., wrote :
"I can hardly express ray thanks for the
benefit I have received from taking' Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and
Pleasant Pellets.' They worked like a
charm in my case. Am m better health
now than for some time, and will not fail
to recommend your medicines to my
suffering friends. I hope you will re
ceive my thanks for the good your med-
icine has done me."
