The Japanese have a large, number of torpedo boata In their fleet And they demonstrated their effeettvenesa in the (Derations around Tort Arthur. Naval official here tonight express the opinion that It was unlikely that such serious losses as those reported could have been inflicted ' by ordinary fire. The Orel and Borodino are of 13,61 tons displacement each, heavily armed, well pro tected and were designed to make eighteen knot. They nieaaur 337 feet by "5 feet, with n feet draught, and both have a lofty apar deck, fully thirty feet arfove the water line, extending from the bow to the quar terdeck. Forward ii mounted a pair of 12.4 Inch guns In a turret protected by eleven Inches of Krupp armor. Another pair of gun, of same alse, ia mounted aft. There are thirty other guna of the Intermediate battery and the vessela carry two sub merged torpedo tubea and two above water. A special feature of the vessela la their vertical longitudinal hulkheads of Inch armor, running thrrrughout the whol length of the ahlp at a distance of nine or ten feet Inboard from the ships' aides, designed to local is the effect of a blow from a torpedo. Togo's fleet has been almost constantly at Masampo bsy. nojeatvenaky'a Preparation. Advices from a reliable fiuarter received here are to the affect that threo Russian battleshlpa, three armored crulsera and several colliers were off Shanghai Friday. It Is believed that' Vice Admiral Rojest vensky aent sufficient ahlps to the vicinity of Shanghai In order to induce the belief that hia main fleet Was there while the major portion of it pushed on toward the Corean atraita. 8veral Rusalan colliers were at Shang hai at 9 o'clock Saturday night. Private telegrams received here from Shanghai say that aa faat aa tha cargoes of the colliers are conaumed the veaaela ara dismissed by Vice Admiral Rojeatvensky and return to Europe. American Ship I'nldentlned. TOKIO. May 28.-The nama and destina tion of the American fcteamcr which Vice Admiral Rojestvenaky. is reported to have aunk off Formosa about May 21 is unknown here. Details concerning the sinking of the veaael are expected to be made known when the crew of the ateamer reachea Japan. Al though nothing la known Here about he ease it la expected in official circles that Vice Admiral Rojeatvensky will claim that the vescsl waa cruising. Think It Naval necessity. BT. PETERSBURG.

Chemical analyaia trfila' the ' truth and the analyaia of the famous fchemista of the world show Grape-Nuts the only prepared breakfast food in which the starch part of the wheat and barley has been trans formed Into sugar and therefore ready for Immediate digestion. Why la this true? All the thin rolled flake foods are made by soaking the grains of wheat or oata in water, then rolling, drying and packing. Theae-operatlona do not cook or pre-dlgest the atarch. Contraated with thla pretenae, observe the care,, method and skill In making Grape-Nuta. The barley is Soaked about 100 houra, then It la slowly warded for aoma daya and aprouted, the dfaaUa being developed and part of the starch turned to sugar (and later on all of IDthen the. gralna are baked and the sprouts stripped off.

It certainly would not do to mix In drum, for there la a certain failure eure to come to the person depending on druga to digest food. They may do for a temporary ex pedient but pura food and digestible food la the only final resort and aafa way. So to change the remaining starch part and prpr. the other elements In this blended flour it Is made up Into massive loaves like bread, the Inside being dark cream color and ijulte sticky to the touch.

" There a reason (or Grape-Nuta and . jwvfouad ies . the Admiralty aa quite possible that Rojcst venaky may have been compelled by mili tary necessity to destroy a neutral. If he feared that to allow It to proceed and re port the whereabouts and direction of the Russian fleet would endanger hia strategic plan he had no other alternative except to take or elnk the ahlp. Such an Incident la unfortunate, but every naval officer must admit that the risk In such a crisis la too great to take any chances. If the ahlp was unjustifiably sunk from the standpoint of international law. Ruslsa. of course, will have to foot the bills; but any coat la cheap If It favored Rojestvensky'a mission. Comment of French Press. FARI8, May 2S. Intense Interest has been aroused here by newa that a naval battle has been fotight between the Rua slan and Japanese fleets. Officials and diplomatic quarters are without advices, most of the information reaching Paris coming through the Associated Press dis patches, forwarded from the United States. These dispatches are prominently displayed In the evening editions of the newspaper aad are eagerly commehted on. Tha Temps reproduces a dispatch from Rome saying that the Italian minister of marine. Ad miral Mirabello, haa received a cablegram from Che Foo giving a rumor that a battle of the moat violent ' character haa been fought. In which both combatants Buffered serious lose. All the newspapers display a tone of ex treme anxiety over the result. The Temps paya a glowing tribute to Admiral Rojestvensky'a skill In preparing his siiuadrons for the final encounter, and to hia auduclty In taking the route where the Japanese were atrongest. The Echo de Paris' St. Petersburg corre spondent Says a letter has been received from Admiral Rojeatvensky, written six weeks ago, in which the admiral said he desired to reach Vladivostok without a combat, if possible, but that he would do nothing to avijld an "encounter. Naval Battle In Prosrreas. ST.

No details are given, but the tone of telegrams from Che Foo is favorable to the Russians. The tele grams say that the Vladivostok squadron participated in the engagement. An thglish firm in fehanghal has received a telegram from Tokio to the effect that the Japanese have been victorious, but no body here believes It. There la the greatest excitement In Shanghai. All the warships in the harbor have cleared for action. . The cable to Woosung has been Inter rupted since yesterday, but the cause la not known. Numerous merchantmen have postponed their departure pending the receipt of fur ther newa. Battle Begins Saturday Afternoon. LONDON, May 9. The Times' Tokio cor respondent say that telegrams from appar ently trustworthy sources show that Vice Admiral Rojeatvensky approached Tsu Island on the afternoon of May 27, during a fog, which cleared up in the afternoon, when the Russians were sighted by the Japanese. The battle commenced between t and 3 o'clock In the afternoon. There was a strong breeze blowing with a high aea. "A" dispatch to the Times from Parla saya that. a. private dispatch from Che Foo, probably from Russian sources, reports that Rdjes'tverisky began to force a passage of the Corea atraita Saturday night, without lights, in two linea, one on each Bide of Tau island. Heavy firing is said to have been heard In the atraita .between 9 and 10 o'clock at night, when it ceased..

WEEK MORE OF CASE (Continued from First Page.) Jammed and packed and a large majority of the spectatora have been women. They are there when court convenes at 9 o'clock and they remain until It adjourns. Every movement made by Dennjaon, Mra. Dennl son, their little daughter or Shercllffe ia followed by node and glancea and . wh'la pere from the large crowds. When on the Btreeta or hi the hotel lobby they are con atantly the center of attraction. Every body In Red Oak ia talking of the Dennlson trial. A number of telegrama have been received by Sheriff Thomaa to arrest and hold' Sher cllffe for officers from other states, but theae telegrama are attracting Very little attention fir the reason that everybody knows that Shercllffe cannot be taken out of tha state unless Governor Cummins saya ao, and the governor haa announced that until after the trial and a hearing on the applications he will not consider any requi sition for Shercllffe. Dennlson has aeked viaitlng offleera to leave Shercllffe alone, at least until after the trial, for he realizes that' ahould be be arrested it would preju dice hia case.

LINCOLN, May 2S.-(Spec1al.)-The First district haa all the politics demanded by Its active politicians for the next few das. The certainty that Jurtgu Holmes, the I.an caster county candidate for the republican nomination, would secure the place seems to have vanished, although he is still ac counted a very strong candidate because of the enormous numerical preponderance of this county Recently there have been reports that Hayward of Otoe county would assist Holmes to secure the nomination. Hayward Is accounted a Union Pacific ad herent and It la claimed that the political managers of that road would assist the Lancaster county man through the use of the Otoe county delegation In order to reward him for having interfered with the plana of J. H. Ager to nominate former Speaker Paul Clark. On the other hand, there are reports of a combination among the other counties of tha district to nominate Hayward, this being the method the opposition to Holmes will employ to keep him from securing the honor. Political observers insist that it Is the Imminence of a tietip between Holmes and Hayward to the advantage of the, former, which has led the opponents of the Lancaster county candidate to make tempting overtures to the Otoe county nian. Otoe and Lancaster can nominate, but Without T.nncnfitn. ft will talrA a. Iaco j five of the seven counties In the district to rorm a successful combination, providing It Includes Otoe and Cass countiea. There ia considerable talk of some effort to take Cosa county from Pollard, who is accounted an independent and would probably not en ter Into any deal, and to give It to Repre eentatlve R. B. Windham. Eftch of the seven counties haa a candi date to go 'Into the convention to be held June 1 at Falla City, and all are actively at work seeking support. Holmes Is doing systematlo work all over the district, but A. B. Allen, private secretary to the gov ernor; Representative Wilson of Pawnee, Hayward and Pollard are all doing active work. County Attorney Ncal of Nemaha county, who worsted Tom Majors in the conteat for the county delegation, Satur day, Is not regarded aa an active condl-' date, and It la claimed that C. F. Reavla of Richardson, who has been permitted to choose his own delegation, is holding it for some friend. The defeat of Tom Majors' aspirations for the Nemaha dele gations has been anticipated for some time, since Neal has the backing of the Church Howe faction, which engineered the defeat of, Majora In the senatorial prlmariea last summer, when Senator Good won his spurs and laid the foundation for his candidacy to succeed State Treasurer Mortensen. Tennis Tournament. The championship in tennis as between Nebraska and Iowa will be settled tomor row In the doubles acheduled to begin at 10 o'clock.

The Ferrla Summer Stock company opened Ita third week at the Boyd theater with a play quite well suited to the strength of the company, and one of much Interest to the patrons, "The Danltra." Many years have elapsed since McKee Rankin and wife male us acqualuted with th beauties of thla strong picture of life in the west of nearly half a century ago, as drawn by Bret Harte, who was an observer and almost a participant In some of th stirring events of that time. Very few of the present generation recall the Danltes as anything but a myth, but to the people of those times, who sought to cross th "promised land," they were a stern reality. Harte threw up Into high relief some of the Incidents, and made a really strong play out of them. It Is of value aa giving a close view of a phase of life that haa vanished from America. Two audience that tested the capacity of the theater witnessed the performances, and grew very enthusiastic over the play and the players. Mlsa Pavey finds the double , role of Nancy Williams and Billy Piper quite to her liking, If she appeared winsome In a garb of that period, the simple gown and bonnet, what shall be said of her aa a boyf She certainly looks well In trousers, and this without appearing masculine, while she gives a sympathetic and Intelli gent life to the part. Rose Curry la very good aa the "Wldder" Brown, and makes the part a atrong on. Hattle Carmoti telle is right In her element aa Captain Tommy, and Miss Rutherford make a good Bunker Hill. Mr. Dowlan flnda In the lines of Sandy McGee something that more nearly aulta him, and gives a much more satisfactory account of himself than he has done heretofore. Mr. Barbour's "Parson" Is a capital piece of acting, and Mr. McKee docs very well aa "Judge" Wise. The rest of the cast is well placed and the setting of the piece Is quite ap propriate. "The Danltes" will be presented thla evening and Tuesday evening. the American achooner Endymlon. A. th Celtlo approached It It was given a rousing, salute of cheer and flags and handkor- I chiefs were waved by the passengers. Th Endymlon waa passed nt 10:28 a. nv, ships time, on Wednesday, and was 1,320 miles front Sandy Hook. The Hamburg, which, was passed two hours previously, was 1.357 miles from the starting line. On its arrival tonight tha ateamer Ham burg, from Hamburg, Dover and Boulogne, reported three of the yachts In th ocean race. On May 23. at 10:46 a. m.. In lati tude 46:OS, longitude 32:4, tt two-masted, black painted hull schooner, believed to be the Hamburg, waa sighted. On May 24, at 4:10 p. m, in latitude 43:08. longitude 42:21, a two-masted achooner yacht with black hull waa passed. It Is believed this vessel waa the Endymlon. Tho British vacht Valhalla waa passed by the ateamer Hamburg on May 24 at 6..20 p. ni. Ita position waa latitude 42:f longitude 42:60. The wind was from tha aouth-aouthwest, blowing a strong breeze. The sea waa rough and the weather rainy. Captain O'Hagen of the Phoenix lln ateamer British King, from Antwerp, which arrived tonight, reports that on May 23, at 6:06 p. m.. In latitude 40:47, longitude 47:68, he passed an American yacht painted white, ketch rigged mast and Jigger. Tha vessel mas the Alls. One hour later a achooner rigged yacht was passed. This Is thought to be the Atlantic or Flour de Lys. ! Toara" at the Kruig. Melbourne MacDowell began his second week of effort at the Krug yesterday, this time offering "La Tosca." I'p to date he has been unable to overturn the original plan of Sardoir and make the man the start part. Sardou's dramas were written for a woman, and the men are all subsidiary, and Mr. MacDowell's best en deavors are hardly sufficient to reverse this order. He makes Baron Scarpia a very monster of cruelty and duplicity, of low cunning and open treachery, and omlta entirely the little touches of refinemen by which other and greater actors have glossed the baron's actions. Instead of making him appear the polished gentleman who is driven to these extreme measures by the exigencies of his profession and the political necessities of the crown he Is serving, MacDowell makes him appear to take real satisfaction in his deviltry his cry of triumph, at the climax of the third act, Is the -Joyous yelp of a monster who has feasted on human suffering, and not the conscientious utterances of a min ister of the law who feels he has done his duty. In his scene with Ia Tosca In the fourth act, where the woman gets her chance, he Is the libertine In the grossest form. All in all, Mr. MacDowell seems able merely to emphasize the unpleasant aide of Scarpia, without lending It a scln tllla of the elegance that is the only re deeming feature of the part. MIsb Fuller Is even better aa La Tosca than aa Cleopatra. In this character not bo much Is demanded of her voice, and its limitations more nearly fit with the re quIrementB of the role. She haa the true perspective, and very accurately values tho situations. In the earlier scenes she is life and vivacity, with her peculiar whim aicallty that is a part and parcel of the character, and In the third and fourth acts she very nearly approachea greatness. She seems to feel all the storm and atress of emotion through which aha passea, and enacts her part with discriminating taste and Judgment, so that It rises far above Its surroundings. The others in the cast do fairly well what Is asked of them. The Bettings and coatumea are appropriate, and the per formance movea smoothly enough. "La Tosca" will be on all week, with an extra matinee on Tuesday and the regular matinees on Wednesday and' Saturday. It was witnessed by two very large and very well pleased audiences yesterday. u a Ttnnrhter of Erin" at the Oruheum Twice .vesterdav Mr. Frank Keene and his associates paid the penalty of being unknown in a large city. They offered at th Orpheum theater "A Daughter of Erin," a modern Irish comedy-drama, ana Just twice did th local public resolutely withhold Its patronage. The play varlca but little from the conventional Irish enmeriv.rirama. with the exception that it la a trifle more modern In Ita time than moBt of them and the company is quite ei-iiml tn its reau rements. It will be Ol fered again thla evening for the final per formance. Tonight is deslgnatea aa Ancieni Order of Hibernian night. Scandinavian Hnptlsta to Meet. SIOCX FALLS, 8 P., May 2S -(Special.)
