Russian Battleship In
an Engagement
ATTACKED BY DESTROYERS
Japanese Vessels Lay in Wait
Off Port Arthur Harbor.
DRIVEN OVER THE HUN RIVER
Crar's Soldiers Compelled to Retreat
After a Desperate Engagement
Lasting 72 Hours Mukden
In Wild Confusion.
LONDON. Dec 12. An unofficial report
t-om Port Arthur, according- to a Toklo
Upatch to the Dally Mall, says the Jap
anese torpedo-boat destroyers attacked
tho Russian battleship Sevastopol at the
I mouth of the harbor the night of Decem
ber Swlth -what result Is not known.
)he Dally Telegraph's correspondent
before Port Arthur reports, under date of
December 9. that there were desperate
encounters last week. The belligerents,
tb -"rrespondent adds, mutually recog
r.!ze the Red Cross, and collect the dead
find wounded during temporary suspen
sions of fighting.
The Dally Telegraph's Tientsin corre
spondent learns from official Japanese
sources that the Japanese casualties at
Port Arthur the latter part of October
were 30X killed and 10,000 wounded. The
losses In more recent attacks, tho corre
spondent adds, were much heavier.
The same correspondent has heard that
continual fighting is proceeding south of
21ukden.
3 The correspondent at Shanghai of the
Dall Telegraph, in a dispatch dated De
cember 11. says that, according to Pekin
reports, the Russians have retreated to
the south bank of the Hun River, after
T? hours' fighting, with heavy losse.. On
the fourth day of the fighting, the corre
spondent says, the Japanese assumed the
offensive.
The Mukden station Is reported to be
in a wild state of confusion. The Daily
Telegraph thinks the authenticity of the
reports from Chinese sources of heavy
fighting is very doubtful.
FLEET MAY NEVER GET OUT.
Russian Vessels Badly Battered by
Japanese Fire.
TOKIO. Dec. 11 (4 P. M.)-The batter
ing pf the Port Arthur fleet continues,
and there is but little ground for expect
ing that It Trill ever again engage the
Japanese. The battleship Sevastopol con
tinues at anchor outside, and it Is pos
sible that she returns to the harbor at
"'grit. Her anchorage is inside the outer
boom, which protects her from torpedo
attacks, besides the heavy weather re
centls has given her added protection.
Naval experts are discarding the theory
that the Russians sank any ships them
selves Tho fact that the vessels first
showed lists, the exposed positions of the
sunken vessels and the efforts of tho
Russians to save the Sevastopol are re
garded as conclusive against the theory
cf self-sinking.
A majority of the sunken warships lie
headed northward. They received the
bulk of the fire across their port sides.
The fact that at least two "showed lists
to starboard gives rise to the theory that
the Japanese shells exploding inside tho
ships, against the starboard armor, drove
the armor outward, causing leaks. In
order to ond the question .of their fu
ture availability, the Japanese are com
pelled to drop shells into the sunken
hulks.
The whereabouts of the torpedo-boat
destroyers continue doubtful. It is
thought they haveiaken shelter outside.
The weathor prevents a .good observation,
"but the Japanese are .sending a searching
fire Into nooks which cannot Te observed
from 203-Meter Hill and other heights.
Observers report that a number of tugs,
launches, dredges and small -craft have
anchored near the hospital ships 'In. the
west harbor, evidently for the purpose
cf obtaining protection.
It Is suggested that the besiegers notl

ate these vessels from the hospital ships
or take the consequences. The Japanese

hospital ships which are frequently In
the- direct line of fire.
THIRD FLEET FOR ORIENT.
Admiral Silotl, of Naval Staff, Has
Arrived at Decision.
SPECIAL, CABLE.
LONDON, Doc. ll.-The St. Petersburg
correspondent of the' Daily Mall wires
that Admiral Siloti, of the naval staff, has
derided to dispatch a third fleet to the
Far East.
This report flatly contradicts Informa
tion cabled from St. Petersburg as offi
cial a few days ago to the effect that
Admiral Rojrstvensky would not be rein
forced by any of the warships now avail
able and belonging to the Black Sea
fHiadron, whlchjs securely bottled up In
the Black Sea. It was then stated that
many naval authorities believed that sev
eral ships now available and others In
course of construction should be gotten
ready for active service and sent in small
detachments after the Baltic squadron,
with a view of insuring the success of
Admiral Rojestvensky's mission.
The truth of these reports was officially
denied, and It was added that no attempt
would be made to get the Black Sea fleet
out of the Black Sea. 4

HUNTING FOE PAT CE0WE.
Noted Outlaw Believed to Be Hiding
Near St. Joseph, Mo.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Dec 1L A force of
policemen. Deputy Sheriffs and detectives
has been scouring the Missouri River,
bottom lands north of St Joseph today
for the hiding place of Pat Crowe and
Sam (alias "Horse Thief") Johnson, who
met Detectives "Wilson and Wheeler early
this morning and exchanged a fusillade
of shots with the outlaws. Both officers
axo confident that one of the men was
wounded during the exchange of shots.
The men are belici'ed to be still hiding In
the. dense brush of the bottom lands.
Late yesterday afternoon the secret
service department received a tip from a
reliable source that Pat Crowe, the'
much-wanted alleged Cudahy kidnaper,
was at the home of Charles Christian.
Detectives Wheeler and Wilson were de
tailed on the case. Driving to the local
ity, the two officers secreted themselves
in the sandhills southwest of Christian's
house. However, nothing was seen of the
men until early this morning.
After lying on the ground -the officers
became chilled, and started to draw a
trifle closer to the Christian home. Just
at that moment two men were seen to
leave the side doorway. In the dense
darkness it was impossible to recognize
either. The two detectives posted them
selves at an advantageous position at tho
roadside. As tho two men came withln
ten paces, both officers stepped to the
road.
"Throw up your hands; we are officers,"
exclaimed AVIlson.
A curso and a volley of shots were the
answer. Both officers opened fire with
rifles. The two men sprang from the
road, firing rapidly, and emptying their
guns, and escaped In the darkness.

PANAMA CANAL PLAN APPROVED
French Engineer Says That Eventu
ally It Will Be Brought to Sea Level.
PARIS. Dec 11. Philippe Bunau-Varilla.
who before being Minister of Panama to
Washington, was the principal onglnocr
of the Panama Canal, gives an authorized
Interview relative to the building of the
canal at sea level. According to M. Bunau
Varilla, the construction of the canal at
sea level is not only possible, but It must
ultimately be so constructed, as are other
connections between oceans, like the
Straits of Bosphorus. between the Black
Sea and the Egean .Sea,. Asked if. the
Panama Canal ought to be constructed at
once at sea level, M. Bunau-Barilla re
plied:
"Not at all. To be at perfect sea level,
the canal must be free from any artificial
work; and there Is perhaps no engineer
who would be willing to accept the re
sponsibility of building It Immediately
without dams on the Upper Chagres to
regulate the floods, and without tldelocks
at Panama to counteract In the canal the
currents due to the ten-foot tide from the
Pacific The notion of a free discbarge
from the Chngres In a lockless sea-level
canal must result from experience, which
would be acquired by working a lock
canal with a central lake, such as that-1
devised in 1S32, and which was adopted
by the Isthmian- Canal Commission In
1901.
"The construction of such a canal would
give-, experimental data about the neces
sary cross-section of the canal, about the
slopes pf "the deep cut at Culebra and
about thVsedlmentajB-rthcr Chagr.es, all of
which are essential for building a sea
level passage- successfully. As to cfiang
Ing from, the lock to the" sea level form.
I gave In 18S7 a solution which I com
municated recently to Admiral Walker.
It Is an easy, practical and cheap method
of gradually transforming the lock-canal
into a sea-level canal without stopping
navigation flvo minutes. It utilizes for
the sea-level canal all tho work done for
the lock-canal, except, naturally, dams
and' locks.
"This solution entirely protects the fu
ture. In one word, I think It would be.
a great error to begin with the sea-level
plan at once. It would cost $100,000,000
more, and require twice as much time.
The lock plan will be amply sufficient
until the traffic reaches 40.000,000 tons
that Is to say, seven times the probable
traffic in the first year's operation aid
will lead by experimental and secure ways
to an ideal solution of a sea-level pass
age." RECKLESS TARGET PRACTICE.
Captain of American Liner Protests to
British Authorities.
LONDON, Dec 11. Captain Mills, of
the American Line steamer Philadelphia,
has ordered a protest against reckless
target practice carried on off Plymouth.
He says that as he approached the har
bor on Saturday with nearly 1000 persons
on board, their saTety was endangered
by a gunboat which persisted In firing
even after tho patrol launch apprised the
gunboat of the liner's approach. Captain
Mills adds that he was obliged twice to
stop and go full speed astern to avoid
disaster.

TO INSTALL NEW SWITCH.
Automatic Device to Be Given Test
by O. R. & N.
The O. R. & N. has closed a contract
with tho Hurst Manufacturing Company
for the installation of a trial specimen of
its automatic switch. The new Invention
will be placed in the O. R. & N. track near
the city. Inside of the next six weeks, and
will be given an exhaustive tost by tho
company, after which. If it is successful,
it will be Installed throughout the system.
or at least In those districts whore the in
vention would be most serviceable.
Tho Hurst automatic "switch is so ar
ranged that tho engineer of a moving
train can open it and run his train on a
sidetrack even though he Is going at a
rapid rate. At the same time, after the
train has passed onto the swlth, an auto
matic attachment working from the rear
of the train will close tho switch and
leave the track in the same condition that
It was before tho train reached tho place.
This will prove very useful In freight
switching, as it will do away to a great
degree with the work of tho switch
tender, and will save time, as the train
will not have to stop and wait for tho
brakeman to open the switch or for him
to catch the rear of the train after hav
ing closed a main-line switch when pulling
from the siding.
The new Invention Is worked with com
pressed air drawn from the same com
partment used for storing the supply feed
ing the brakes.
