U'flaiASg SCORE , REAL, M CCESS Assert that In the Xlakt They -reeded III Torpedolaa; Crelser. MAO TANO. Saturday. May 14. (Delayed In transmission.) Th Russlsn fleet scored Ita first distinct aucreaa of the war on May 10 by the torpedoing and crippling, though Dot the alnklng, of an armored Japanese cruder In Tallen Wan ba. The Russian attack waa carefully planned on May 10. while the Japanese squadron waa concentrated outside Dalny, devoting Ita attention to Tallen Wan bay and waa ear rlea1 out the aame night. The attacking fere waa not a regular torpedo boat, but waa only a email naphtha launch in com mend of young naval officer, who had with him three Jackie. The launch meunted a email machine gun and tarried thrir torpedoes. When darkness fell the launch crept out of Port Arthur, hugging the shore with no lights aboard and no glow from the engines to betray Its presence. It waa late . when It gained the outer line of the Japa nese squadron. Slipping through the tor pedo boat pickets and selecting the nearest warship, a big armored cruiser. It stole toward It and succeeded In exploding .'against Ita side a single torpedo. A deafen '. Ing roar followed the explosion, which echoed far ashore. Immediately flame en "veloped the cruiser, which evidently wis badly crippled. Tha crew of the cruiser waa seen to be 'fighting the Are, which they at laat suc ' reeded In extinguishing. A sister ship took the damaged veasl In tow and disappeared to the southeast. The launch escaped the hot fir directed against It by the Japanese ships, but being unable to return to Port Arthur or to get Into Dslny, It waa beached not fat1 from Dalny. Only a few of the higher officers were ware of the plan, the success of which de pended ' on secrecy. The achievement ralaad tha spirits of the Russians afloat and ashore, and the young naval officer, who waa the hero of the exploit, waa feted and recommended for the cross of 8t. George. ' The 'Russians on May 11, apprehending that tha presence of a Japanese squadron meant an attempt to capture Dalny, blew up tha plera and quietly evacuated the place. Two thousand Japanese have reoc cupled the road to Sanchlllpu again cutting off Port Arthur. A strong force Is advan cing against Polandlen. Bandits ReromestBolder. Chinese bandits are becoming bolder and are causing considerable trouble to the Russian outposts. A swarm of the bandits at noon on May 13 attacked the coal mines on the branch Una east of Yantal station, ten miles north of Llao Yang, the mines which supply the whole railroad were guarded by 200 riflemen and 100 Cos sack. In a fierce fight the Russians repelled the bandit and then charged them, the bandits fleeing to the hill and to neigh boring villages. The troops surrounded the village and demanded tha surrender of the bandits. The surrender was at flrat refused, but fearing that the Rus sian would destroy their home the vil lagers finally revealed the hiding places of tha fugitives. The bandits fought with the desperation of entrapped rats and fifty of them were speared and killed. The Russians suffered no loaa. ,- Among seventeen prisoner taken by the troopa were two Japanese officers, who had eacaped from the Russians.

CttwOt THREE STRAIGHT FOR OMAUA Lut Gam with Dar Goal to on a tld, Pa'i BOTI MOUNTAINEERS NEVER TOUCH RANGERS Despite C'eastaat Rala Nearly Three Tfcoasanal rata Bee Pep Eyler Fall Before the I-oeal Slegger. Did It ralnt Borne. Did Omaha and Denver play ball Just the same? They did. Did the rain make any trouble for Pas boys In making three etrstght from the men from the hills? Well, not enough so you' would notice It. And Is Pop Eyler such much, after all? Not according to the latest advice from the seat of war. 1 . The fact that nearly 1,009 people went to the Vinton atreet grounda yelterday after noon. In the rain and sat through eight Innings of a ball game ahows Pa Rourke what he may expect In the line of support from hi home town so long as the quality of the ball that'he furnishes keeps up to the standard of that of. the last few daya. If It had not rained it I safe to aseert that the attendance would have been nearer 10.000 than 8.000. Those who did go were more than repaid for the chances they took and the discomforts they endured. In spite of tho wet ball and the wetter grounds the game was high class In every particular. McCarthy was oq the slab for the home tesm and made good In a way that more than surprised his most ardent admirer. For six red hot Innings he held the mighty men from the mountains down to one little scratch hit and no runs, gav only one baae on balls and smoothed over the muffing of two long flies by Dusty Miller In the second and third Innings, re spectively. To be sure, every man on the tesm wss all over the ground and the two error by Miller were made on two desperate chances that a leea ambitious player might not have taken and none missed had the ground been dry. Hard to Pitch In Rain. By the time the seventh Inning wa on the grounds and balls were In such a con dition thst the best pitcher In the world would have msde sn occasional foosle and then they touched McCarthy for three scat tering hits, Including a twe-bagger by Hal lam, that netted them ope run. Eyler made another In the visitors' half of the eighth that; was thrown away and then I'mplre Keefe called the game. - In the third Inning Shlpke started the music by .lamming It over to the right pasture for three bags. -Johnny Gondlng followed this with a single to center, but died on second on McCarthy' attempted sacrifice to Eyler.' Then foxy Nick waited and walked and Dusty Miller squared him self with the fan by slamming It down Into the green gras In Ketcham' diatrlct. sending two men over the plate, Shlpke having scored on Gondlng' hit. ' Harry Welch tried but was; thrown out from third, ending the Inning.' In the next Jack Thomas got the fever and leaned up against the first one that Eyler "sent hta way. When the ball got back from center Jackie wa sitting on the third cushion and scored a moment later on Eyler' wild pitch. Dolan made hi customsry hit and he, Welch and Howard divided the fielding honors. Today la "ladlea' day" with the St. Joseph players for victims;. Dlmick'a orchestra will be In attendance and Ffeleter In tho box for the homo team. Score: OMAHA. AB. R. H. Pp.
