Command of Army Before Mukden.
Motoow, Nov. 1& -General Kuroki, the fameus commander ef tho Jap
anesa army In front of Mukden, Is dead. Kuroki's death followed wounds
eelved during ths recent fighting. Prince Siastinil will sueoeed him, a
though Nodsu will have actual command of ths army.
' Ths news of the death of ths famous commander comes in a telegram
received today from Memirovltch Danchenko, ths well known Russian war
correspondent of ths Associated Press, who wires from Mukden that the rc
ports cf Kuroki's desth have been confirmed. Some time ago it was rumor'
ed that Kuroki had been killed, butlittle credence wee placed in the story.
Now, however, comes confirmation cf the report.
Aocording to Danehenko's version, Kuroki was struck by a splinttr
from a shell, which tore out a portion of the breast and abdomen, inflicting
fatal wounds. Ths general Is said te have succumbed at Lise Yang, Ooto
bar 4, and It is statsd in ths ditpstch from Danchenko that the body hss
been shippsd to Japan.
"The rumor is persistently current," Danchenko telegraphs, "that
kinsman of ths mikado, 8iastinil, literally the third prince,' has been ap
pointed to succeed Kuroki, but actual command of the army has been in
trustsd to General Nodxu, who is reviewina the operations.
"Alarming newt has been received from Port Arthur, but the absence

of events there."

Ditabled 8ohooner Said to Have Been
8stn Off ths Cosst, but Tugs
Sssroh in Vain.
A rumor was current yesterday that
derelict three-mastsd schoonur had
been sighted off the Oregon const. The
report came from Seaside, where per
sons were said to have seen a disabled
vessel about a mile off shore. Ac
cording to the story, the vesacl seem
ed to be in distress, and a bot con
taining several man waa alleged to
have put oft from her. They weie
said to have been unable to effect a
landing, on account of the heavy surf.
The report was at once communicated
to the masters of the revenue eutter
Perry and the lighthouse tender
Heather, who went outside yesterday to
search for the derelict. No trace of
any disabled vessel could be found. The
report had It that the derelict waa
seen near Tillamook rock about 3
'clock Friday afternoon. Aa the light
house tender Heather was In that
vicinity at the hour named, the story
has been set down aa groundless. The
report emanated from the source which
recently reported a derelict which prov
ed to be a floating tree, and It Is the
belief of local shipping men that the
latest wreck reported was imaginary.

The Seaside saw mill Is still closed
down and there la no Immediate pros
pect of resumption of operations there.
It Is stated authoritatively that the
mill lost $60,000 last year and the
Minnesota Arm which is Interested Is
not anxious to sink any more money In
the plant. The logs delivered at the
mill during the year are said to have
cost $12 a thousand. The manager of
the plant,' who holds some $15,000
worth of stock In the company, has
made an effort to Interest Mr. Ham
mond, but . thus far the president of
the Astoria road has not seen fit to take
hold. Indeed, It Is said the chances
of Mr. Hammond taking the plant are
extremely remote, as the affairs of the
oompany are not In shape to assure
him control of the plant The close'
down has worked a decided hardship
on Seaside, and many people have mov

the Seaside Sentinel would suspend
publication shortly after January 1 if
the mill la not started again. Several
attachments have been placed on the
plant, which is In charge of a keeper.
