8T. PETERSBURG,- Feb. 18. -Information
contained in the press di
pate hw -from- Washington; that Secre
tary Hay had announced the negotia
tion in connection with his note to
the powers on the subject of the integ
rity of (,'hina to be closed without
aw'ajting Russia's formal response
came as a surprise to the official circles
here.1. An official of the foreign office,
with whom a representative of the As
sociated Press talked on this matter,
appeared to be rather non-plussed.
"If this is true, it has not changed
the Russian program. Not to await
Russia's reply might, however, offend
Russia's susceptibilities and tend still
further to increase the feeling already
existing here in certain quarters, that
t be United States is not friendly to
Russia. '
"In flus connection, there is no doubt
that the government feels somewhat
embarrassed by the desire of the United
.States to install consuls in. the open
ports of Manchuria immediately. The
government does not like to be placed
in a position of putting obstacles in
the way, but that entire territory is
now under military control, and these
posts would be within the sphere of
the war operations.
"The Russian reply to Secretary
Hay's note is practically ready and
will be handed to Ambassador" McCor
ijiick in a day or two, possibly tomor
row." In diplomatic circles here, Secretary
Hay's action is considered a fine stroke

this act was intended as a feint to

to command that shore.
Simply Taken Tor Granted.
Washington, Feb.: 18. On Tuesday
last, the Associated Press quoted a
state -department official as stating
then would be no more notes exchang
ed at present relative to the neutraliza
tion of China, as the powers having
accepted and the state department felt
the chapter to te closed. This is evi
dently": the information referred to as
causing surprise in St. Petersburg.
Russia's adherence to the principle of
the Hay. note , was regarded several
lays ago as assured, although no for

ment had been received.

Russians Eager to Fight.
St. Petersburg? Feb. IS. A long of
ficial dispatch from Viceroy Alexieff
recounting the details of the fight of
February 9 at Port Arthur, was given
out today. In f he course of the report
he says: .
"It is still difficult to ascertain the
result of the buttle, but accorSing to
observations made by our ships it may
be assumed several vessels of the ene
my's fleet sustained damages,' which
explains why' they avoided further
fighting, altuough .they . were much su
perior" to us in strength. j.
"According to the. reports of com
manders,' the men fought exceedingly
well." The Admiral concludes:
"In announcing the above to your
Majesty, ' I am pleased to . be able to
add the naval and land forces in the
far East are inspired by the most heart:
felt wish to meet: their insolent foes
breast to breast in order to fill their
duty in sight of their adored ruler, and
firm and' unshakable, to fight for the
honor and glory of. their beloved fath
erland."' New Commander Named.
Paris, Feb. 18. The St. Petersburg
correspondent of the Journal says in a
dispatch War Minister Knropatkin has
been appointed to the chief command
of the troops in Manchuria. He will
be under. Viceroy Alexieff.
Departure Postponed.
Tien Sin, Feb. 18. The departure of
the Chinese -Imperial . troops from Pao

I Fired on by Russians.
Shanghai, Feb. 18. The British
steamer Hsi Ping, from China Wang
Tao for Shanghai, arrived here today.
The captain reports that she was
fired upon by the Russian ships and
forts when seeking shelter in the outer
roadstead of Port Arthur, and that she
was then ordered to Dainy, where she
was detained for four days, in spite of
the captain's protest.
The Russian gunboat Mandjur has
not gone up the river to be dismantled
as jreported. She remains sti Shanghai
in defiance of the orders of the chi-i
nese officials to leave the port.

Assembling in Force- :
Tokio, Feb. lS.-r-The reports that
hare been sent out to the effect that
Russian troops have crossed the Yula
river and are moving south with the
object of seizing Ping Yan are de
clared to be unfounded. Late relialJe
reports from Wiju state that the Rus
sians are assembling in- force on the
north side of the Yalu, but they have
not attempted to cross the river or
move further south.

Feed or Board for Five Months Past
He Is Supposed to Have Gambled
Hearily.
It is probable that unless L. C, Rea
soned, who disappeared sdsuddenly a
few weeks ago is forcibly brought
back to Halem to face his creditors his
smiling vsage will never again be seen
in this eity, much as be will be missed.
The theory that he has met with foul
play has long since been abandoned, or
that he will again appear ana mane
explanations. City Marshal D. W. Gib
son, who investigated the case decided
that he simp.y disappeared, witn all pi
the money he could gather together and
had for five months been making prep
arations for the sodden departure. He
found that although Beasoner was run
ning a good business and daily handled
a goodly sura of cash, he had not for
mhOii taLI a dollar of indebted
ness, but so far as the Chief was able
to learn in his investigations he did
nothing which would give an opportun
ity to issue a warrant for his arrest,
and thus bring him back to the city.
The property of the . "Willamette
Transfer Company, which is owned by
J. Connor, proprietor of the Willamette
Hotel, was leased by ) Beasoner for a
percentage of the net1 receipts and for
five months Mr. Connor has received
nothing, the bill amounting to about
$600. Beside this the feed bills, and
blacksmith bills were not paiu, and it
is likely that the loss of these will also
fall on Connor. Beside the acconnt held
by Connor Chief Gibson found $250
in small bills outstanding, and it is
thought his liabilities amount ; to at
least $1000. It is elaimed that he cob
lected monev from one of the nursery
companies of the city for the payment
of freight, and after his disappearance
it was discovered that the money had
not been paid over. , V f
No one thinks he took anything like
that amount of money with him, or per
haps any money at all, more than
enough to get out o,town with, as he
was a man of profligate habits and it
knows to have lost heavily at cards
just before his disappearance. Evi
dently, he i 'lunged, 1 beyond his-jleptbj
and losing constantly, dispaired of ever
being able to pay; his debtsj and ran
away. Among the debts which he left
are, five months' board which Landlord
Clark of the Leonard has been com
pelled to charge to profit and : 'loss,

The death of Edward I. Lamb, of

on High street, at 3:15 o?clock yester

illness of dropsy of the heart, without
doubt witnessed the passing away of

Always of a kindly and jovial dispo

extend succor or assistance to a brother
in need, there is not a soul whom will

deeply to learn of his demise, anil there
are many who will be surprised to
learn of his death. Although ! he has
been a sufferer of the dreadfulmalady,
of which he was afflicted for more
than three months lefore death came
to relieve him of its tortures, he did
not take to his bed until three days
