Hand To Hand Conflict. Murray, Wash., July .13 The Third Oregon retrieved its losses of last Satur day this morning in defending old Fort Niequally from attack by the First Bri gade, routing the enemy in a way that left no question of doubt in tho minds of the umpires to whom tho victory be longed, although there were no dead left on tho field at the end of tho struggle. It was in a clash near Huggins' Cross ing, about four miles south of Murray, that the Third mado its stubborn de fense and held the enemy from taking tho fort, where the Idaho regiment had been planted. The forces engaged today included every man in the encampment, except ing guards about the camps, and it was "up to" the First Brigade's entrenched position. The Oregon boys had been placed at the most vulnerable point, where it was expected the enemy would surely try to strike its most effective blow. The Eighth Battery and part of tho First Oregon Artillery grove of firs, opened fire on the attacking force, headed by the Tenth Infantry and the Twenty-sixth Artillery, and a portion of First Oregon. Had it been actual war fare, the Tenth would ha-e been a thing of the past, and there would have been little left of the brave Twenty-sixth, so destriutive and sudden was the own ing of hostilities by the defense. A pla toon of tho Ninth Cavalry also assisted in harassing the enemy. The feature of today's maneuvers was a hand-to-hand engagement between two trcops of the Ninth Cavalry, the colored men getting into such close con tact that when stopped by the umpires they were taking away the ammuni tion from each other. Several prisoners were taken. JOSEPHSON'S THE BIG STORE Owing to the success of this venture we will continue the same offer during this month.

The news of the loss of 30,000 Japanese in an attack on the outerworks of Port Arthur, received confirmation, in an official message from Viceroy Alexieff this morning. Alexieff says the news of the engagement has been received bv him and adds that the rejorted casualties of 550,000 are believed to be in no sente oyer estimated The Japanese charged en rectly over a territory that had been completely mined in anticipation of such an emergency and received the full force of the explosion of these mines. A telegram from St. Petersburg this morning says that a sensational rnmor is enrrent there to the effect that the Japanese, after the terrible repulse in which they lost 30,000 men, rallied their forces and Monday night charged with anb.ited zeal, almost fanatical in its fury, upon the contested outerworks. After severe fighting they are report ed to have, captured and occupied the positions. No mention of casualties is made in the report.

The mill is ono of tho largest in the county and was closed down on account oi tno iiign rates on lumber made by tho Southern Pacific railroad.

Armitage and John Nodurft of Myrtle Creek were transacting business in Roseburg Wednesday and favored the Plaindealer with a pleasant call. Bv Mr. Armitage we were informed that at a depth of nearly 1503 feet, a string of tools was lost by the driller in the oil well at that place, and ho has been given thirtv days in which to remove the tools from the well or forfeit his con tract. Strong oil seepages have been encountered since the well reached a depth of 1200 feet and thero is every in dication that oil in paying quantities would be found at a depth of not more than 2000 feet. These delays through carelessness in drilling operations have become very vexatious as well as expen sive, it being found necessary to abandon one well at the depth of 1500 feet on ac count of inability to remove a string of tools lost in it. With tho removal of the present obstruction in the well, there is but littlo doubt but what tho drill would soon penetrate into good oil sands. B. W. Strong having resigned as man ager of the Roseburg Theater, after sev eral years of efficient service rendered in that capacity, it will be gratifying to the many patrons of Roeeburg's popular play house to learn that the Roseburg Orchestra has succeeded to its manage roent.
