HOW MONKS 'ARE EXPELLED
At Namtra It Become-a Kreeisarr for
Ofllcera to Vmm Ffro
Hose.
PARIS. July O (Rpeclal Cablegram to
The Bee.) A remarkabl e scfne occurred thlt
week at Nantes during the expuUlon of tha
Tremontre monk from their monastery.
The town 1 to a. very large extent a
Roman Catholic ' one, and when It was
known that tha monks i were to be ex
pelled feeling ran high. For 'several days
past caipenter and locksmith . hnve been
busy strengthening the door of the mon
astery, which is In the 8t. Doneteln quar
ter of the town About a hundred young
men, partisans of tha monks, took up their
residence In tha monastery and barricaded
themselves inside.
At sunrise an Imposing force of police,
gendarmes and soldiers surrounded tha
building. Then the official' liquidator, ac
companied by the police magistrate, ap
peared at the main entrance and knocked
at the gate, after which, as a matter of
form, the judgment was read out.
The monk were commanded to open the
door, but they were In their chapel at
matins, and the young men within the mon
astery mad no response. Having been
warned of the approach of the military
they wer looking on from the upper win
dows. ,
Five minutes later a couple of saprers
began dealing tremendous blows on the
heavy door, and found after half an hour's
labor that there were strong barricades
within. .'")'
In another fifteen minutes the Inner bar
ricades were sufficiently battered down to
leave a breach. The police magistrate
ordered the soldiers to stand aside, and the
local fire brigade, which had taken up its
position a few yards off, to pour a stream
of water through tne opening.
The defender found it Impossible to re
sist the powerful Jet; the planks which the
defenders were piling up behind the breach
were hastily dropped, and the monks and
their assistants got out of the line of fire
a fast as they could. The attacking party
then advanced to the Inner door, behind
which the defender were gathered, and
there a similar scene was enacted.
The hose was played upon the little band
unmercifully, until at length, after two
hours' siege, the- liquidator entered the
flooded premises.
The superior, surrounded by hi monks,
received the liquidator and tha police
magistrate In the refectory.
'Gentlemen,'" said the former official, "I
am sorry to make 'such an unceremonious
entrance, but you are wrong In resisting
the law, and you see It Is of no avail."
With dignified meln the superior, who was
drenched to the skin, said, "We protest as
free citizens against thla Invasion and con
fiscation of our property. We have re
sisted as a matter of form, and only In
tended to give way to force."
Then the wet and shivering little band
filed out Into the street, where a crowd of
S.fiOO or 4,0(10 people cheered the monks as
they moved off to the adjoining church
sinking hymn:

MCKOLN, Monday, May JO.-(Spec!nl
Correspondence of the Herald Special to
The Eee.f For the last two boura the air
has been filled with the whistling of loco
motives on the railway, which runs at a
short distance from tha Lema temple, In
which I am writing; and this sound will
probably continue, with hardly a break,
for the rest of the day and for all the
coming night, as it has. continued for
months past.
. Sometime It la a short, hnrp scream;
oftcner It Is a prolonged wall. Put, what
ever form It takes, there Is no sound ave
the sound of grins, that escltes more' Inter
est and apprehension in Mukden at the
present moment than the whistle of the
ordinary railway locomotive.
I need not point out why this I the case,
for In no war that ever was waged has
the railway been such an Important factor
na In the rresent conflict. On a single
line of railway Russia depends entirely for
success; on the chance of that railway
proving Inadequate Japan declared war In
February last
Russia ha accordingly told off an army
merely to guard that long railway, 'while
all Japan's efforts, the attacks on Port
Arthur, the Invasion of Manchuria and
the landing along the lAno Tung coast
have had for their object tha cutting of
that frail but formidable line of steel.
The European's God.
The attention the Russians have bestowed
on their' railway since the outbreak of the
war has been such that the Chinese might
be excused for believing that the railway
locomotive is the "European's god," and
that If not watched day and night by
fervent worshipers with rifles in their hands
that Iron deity might inflict some dreadful
punishment on Its recalcitrant worshiper.
After Japan began the war something
like a panic seized upon the Russian with
regard to their railway, and Cossacks used
to ride along the line by night carrying
flash lights, by means of which they could
ascertain If the rails had been tampered
with anywhere.
Admiral Alexleft even Issued a proclama
tion calling on the Chinese to protect the
line, but I do not think that this proclama
tion had the slightest effect.
The elaborate measure taken to protect
the bridge ar already known to the pub
Ho. A considerable body of soldiers Is
generally stationed . on each side of
brliigo, which is also protected by at least
on field piece. The approaches to the
bridge are lined by sandbags, which ome
tlmss extend down the river bank for a
dlstano of several hundred yards. Nobody
is allowed to approach the bridge unless
he 1 a Russian officer In uniform and Is
provided with all sorts of permits, signed
and countersigned by dozens of officials.
Uvery beam of a bridge la watched day
and night by anxious eyes, the owners of
whtoh are. well aware of the fate whlcn
awaits them In case the bridge sustains
Injury while they are not looking.
Even little bridges jnly a few yards
across are protected by two soldiers, who
watch In turn, the m. n off duty reposing
in a little straw hut Just capable of accom
modatlng two persons and a teakettle, built
close to the railway track,
An Aoreatsre,
Although provided with full credential
as a war correspondent nnq wtin a con
spicuous red brassard, I have twice had
difficulties tn crossing the line becaus I
crossed it within about half a mile of one
of these tiny crldgdS. vvnat wouiu nave
happened to me If I had crossed within
sight of a big bridge I shuddor to contem
plate.
On one of the two occasions on which I
passed near a small bridge 1 had with me
a Chinese "mafoo," who looks suspiciously
like a Japanese, being small, wearing cor
duroy and generally rearing -his queue
wound Up Inside of a European bat.
As soon as the soldier on guard at tfie
bridge saw me cross the line he summoned
his companion, and they asked who I was.
I explained to them In my beat Russian,
and at aw distance of about 10 yards, that
I was a war eorrespondont -ind that every
thing was In order. Gut they were not
aatlBficd, ' ;
Thfy wanted to get a rearer view of me,
and accordingly ordered me to come closer.
I obeyed with alacrity, as they had guns hi
their hatTds, but I wondered what would
hapiien to a man who, under Mmllar rlr
cumsiMnc.es. did not unow enough Russian
to understand them and .continued to ride
on. ' . ' ' "
Nortb of Hiikiln.
' About the time I w. thus stopped on the
railway several bodie of mounted Japn
lies. each party numbering several thou
sand, had actually found their way, In
direct Imitation of Dewet when he Invaded
Cape Colony, as, fur ns thirty miles io the
north of Mukden, their object being pre
sumably to ascertain as much, as they
could of the disposition of- the Russian
forces and at the sarao time to Injure the
railway.
Repeated attempta were made by them
to carry out thla lattir i.rt of their pro
gram, and althnutrh these attempt In
variably failed, thev naturally Increaaed the
solicitude with which thi Russians looked
after their line.
Pln-llir attempts were mode between
Mukden nd Lino Vane-, and only a few
days ago lx Japi-t" cavalrymen were
cantured In the vlclnl'y of the latter town.
The Japanese nrf nply send mounted
scout In uniform to sttack the raltwry.
thev also send peaceful nnd heavllv p.ild
Chinamen, ss well r.n Jo miimw dresed as
Chinamen, nnd bsnds of Chinese nl.t.ers to
attempt the same dall-nte operation.
Sometimes . the encounters between fh
Ttusslans who want to guard the line and
the Hunghnsc". Wo wsnt to wreck 1'. at
tain eerliua rtMnenstoos Abcut a week ago
a band of Chinese Hunsh"s attacked a
Coack attachment nnd did not retreat
un'll they hid lost twenty of their num-
t-e.
These attempta make evervbody In Muk
den anirtnu.lv n-t-n for, the whb'tl'pe; of
the rel'wey locomotive, ho fr. aa I hve

body who does not see the trains go past.
I have never seen a more lmioslng ex
hibition of the power and might of Ru"'e
than I have witnessed day after day dutl'ug
the last four week at Mukden.
The endless procession of Implement of
destruction and of men to make use of
them dwarf Into utter Insignificance any
procession that I have ever seen, although
at times I cannot help asking myself aa X
watch them rolling swiftly past how many
of theso brave young fellows will ever
come back.
A partial answer to my question Is sup
plied by the hospital tralna These tralna
consist of epollcRsIy Tlean, white carriages,
with a red cross painted outside and Red
Cross nurses flitting about Inside Ilka
angel of mercy. Instead of being, ss on
would expect, abodes of pain, they are
QlleJ with .light and cheerfulness.
Woanded Well Cared For.
I have never yet looked on one that I
did not envy the occupante. None of theta
were seriously wounded, for d.uigeroua
cases had to be treaty! as near the front ae
possible, and all (t amed to be perfectly
happy and contented. ,
Aa I walked about the Mukden railway
station on a warm, sunny day. looking at
hospital train, I could not help thinking
that these smiling Invalid, in their neat
carriages, were enjoying the happiest
period In their Uvea.
They' were heroes: they had done their
duty manfully to Russia and the cr.ar.
Many of them wore the coveted St.
Oeorge'e cross and other decorations, ant
all looked aa If they were already In tha
Elyslan fields.
The private soldier had clean faces npil
wore clean linen, so that they seemed quit
different from the unshaven, grimy war
riors whom I have been accustomed to
meet at Port Arthur, Inkor. Llao Tan
and Mukden.
The highest degree sf buruan felicity
consists of getting slightly wounded anil
being sent to the rear, to be regarded with
moist eves and waited on with sisterly
solicitude by the handsome girls of tha
Russian Red Cross. .
For several weeks after I cam to Mult.
den the trains ran dally north and soutls
with such regularity that on got to ex
pect their passage as a matter of course.
Just as one expects the rising and setting
of the sun. One day this comfortable con
dition was rudely upset.
Last Trala from Port Arthur.
A train steamed Into Mukden station
with bullet marks all over It. I went, oa
the platform to see it as It stood ur-
rouflded by a crowd of curious speotatora
like a steed that has escaped from a dis
tant battle.
The marks of the Japanese bullets were
very numerous on the armored portion of
the carriages, but these bullets must hava
been fired from a great distance and most
of them must have been "rtoochets." as)
they generally did nothing more than knock
off little rings of paint. '
Some, however, penetrated the roofs anil
windows- of the carriages, wounding sev
eral passengers. It was a silent, anxious
group of men that stood around that train
examining It. It waa evidently the last
train that would come through from Port
Arthur for some time.
The great Manchurlam railway, which had
cost Russia so much money and which had
been one of the greatest triumphs of Mus
covite diplomacy, was about to be cut by
the Japanese. v
- It seemed as If the sun had suddenly
ceased to shine in the heaven', or that
some other natural law had suddenly failed
to operate. The fact seemed to mlte
everyone present suddenly, rudely like a
falling stone.
The pasaengers on the train had not
mych to say. They related that the Jap.
anese had fired on them from a jdlatanoa
of three or four versts. , - -
A "no-Man's Lend."
From that time to the present a veil '
ha been interposed between Port Arthur
and Mukden. Trains only go as far south.
as Tan Ehlh Chiao, near New Chwacg. Be
low Tan Bhlh Clilao lies a "no man's land,"
neither Chinese nor Russian, swarming
with Japanese soldiers and with Chines
bandits; a land In which a light by night
or the sound of a horse's hoofs excites
the attention of sentries and patrol and
in which a man is given a very short timo
wherein to make up his mind to stop or
to be fired on; a land which Russians will '
neverthleas continue to cross at the risk
of their lives. In order to convey informa
tion backward and forward between Port
Arthur and the viceroy's headquarters.
I am writing thl letter near the north

about the weather or say: "Bonjourl com

The Japanese Advance.
The Japanese aeern to have learned Very
soon of thl condition of affair, for sooa
after they had cromsed tfc Talu mounted
bands of them each band being several
thousand strong swept over the country
to the east of the raijroad.
Considering that the Japanese are no
toriously bad horsemen, riding Indifferent
homes end pitted against the finest rider
In the world, with practically the whole
of the great horse breeding region of
Mongolia at their disposal, their temerity

damage inflicted on the Japanese lines of

I might mention, by the way, in this

roaming though Muncnu.ia, supporting
themselves on the country, getting Informa

disposition of the Russian force from the
friendly inhabitant, and breaking the
railway and telegraph lines as often as
