8T. PETERS Hl'KQ, Aug. 6.-3:10 a. m.
The fact that General Kouropatkin'a re
cent dispatches have not mentioned C3cn
ral Btajtelbcra; or General Zaroubaleff
leads to the supposition that their forces
to the southward may have had their com
muulcations cut by General Nodsus' army.
ALLKUE JAPAMK ARE RKSTI.NG
KnaropalLIn Says Division and One
half Were at Slmonrhniu.
ST. PETERSBURG, Auk. 4 ; p. m.
General Kurnpalkln's official details of
the fighting July 31 at Slmouscheng say
that only a division and a half were en
gaged. The report docs not mention the
loss of guns', neither was Lieutenant Gen
eral AlexleVt In command, as stated In the
dispatch from ,. Toklo yesterday. General
Alexleff, who commands the Fifth East
Biberian division of General Stacktlberg's
corps, was posted on the other side of Hal
Cheng July 31.
The War office does nqt Intend to publish
the name of the actual commander at
Slinoueheng for reasons of military expedi
ency. The War office does not expect the
Japanese to resume their' advance for sev
eral dnys.
Now they are probably again preparing
for a flanking movement on a. large stale
and possibly awaiting the marching up of
b strong column from New Chwang.
The failure of the Japanese to follow up
their success Is evidently the cause of
great satisfaction to the general staff here.
Whether this feeling Is due to the fact that
the delay will give General Kouropatkln
breathing space and enable him to arrange
his concentrated dispositions for the com-
'lng battle, or because It will allow him the
requisite time to effect his withdrawal
north Is of course unknown, the general
'staff not even admitting that the com-raander-ln-chlef
Is contemplating escape.
In either event, however, the Russians will
profit by the declination of the Japanese
; to pursue their advantago.
JAPANESE WAIT1J FOR SUPPLIES
Supposed Reason for the Inactivity of
the Invaders.
, ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 6.-8:10 a. m.
The fact that there Is no further news
from, the front beyond General Zausalitch's
account of fighting at Slmoucheng on July
. 31, bears out the Associated Prem expla
nation that the Japanese are halting to
bring up supplies, especially ammunition,
of which a modern engagement entails an
extravagant use, and without which it
would be Impossible even for a victorious
army to follow up its successes.
The official estimate of the loss of more
than one thousand agrees with the figures
In a belated dispatch from Llao Yang, re
lating to the same fighting and which says
the Russians were fully prepared to hold
their positions when commanded to retire,
which waa carried out In perfect order.
The tropical heat continues and there
has been many sunstrokes. The receipt of
General ZaHsalltch'a dispatch was gener
ally known today and gave rise to extra
vagant rumors of further fighting around
Hal Chang and several press dispatches
f were sent off describing a fresh battle be
tween the forces of General Zassalltch and
General Oku.
. There 9 no apparent Justification for
sueh report. Tho best Informed military
authorities declare that there has been no
fighting since the Russians fell back to
LlandianBlan, Anplng and Anshanshan.

PRIME REQUISITE FOR GOOD SOLDIER
la rase of War Volanteer la Mala
Reliance and If He la a Good
Marksman Making Him a,
oldler Is Mack Easier.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. -Under the au
thority of the War department the Na
tional Bo.irl for the Promotion of Rifle
Practice has announced the plan adopted
for the formation of a national reserve
of qualified riflemen. No step In military
circles within the past decade, at least,
has been fraught with the significance that
attaches to this effort to Induce all male
citlxcnn of the United States capable of
bearing arms to familiarise . themselves
with the use of firearms, and especially the
government weapon which will be em
ployed In time of war. It is estimated
that there are at least 10,000,000 Americans
who would be eligible to a draft, of which
only a small percentage know anything
about rifle practice.
Skill with the beBt weapon Tias always
turned the scale In favor of the nation
employing the same even wilh Inferior
numbers. The victories of the English
with their broadcloth arrows at Polctiers
and Aglncourt, of the Americans under
Jackson at New Orleans, and the more
recent ones of Santiago and Manila are
directly ascrlbable to the marksmanship of
the victors. Consequently, the effort to
arouse the lnteest of the great mass of
citizens of the republic In rifle" and pistol
practice and to equip them with the
knowledge of the use of firearms that is
absolutely essential to the soldier regular,
volunteer or conscript Is one which should
and will command the respectful attention
of every one who has his coyntry'a In
terest at heart.
Plan for National Reserves.
The national board has prepared a plan
for the national reserve, the main -points
of which are as follows:
All members of the National Rifle asso
ciation and pf affiliated organisations are
eligible to compete; they must be citizens
between the ages of 18 and 45; the United
States magazine rifle or a rifle viewed and
stamped by 'the National Rifle association
must be used, together with the United
States service ammunition or private
makes that come within the rules; all thoae
who qualify, will receive a National Mark
man's button.
In Introducing thla subject the board
points out that as our permanent mili
tary establishment or regular army must
be small,- in event of a war with one, or
more of the first-class powers of the
world, we must depend very largely, upon
the militia and the volunteers for our
fighting force. With, the modern long
range small arms it Is all important that
the soldier should know how to shoot and
to hit what he shoots at. If he cannot
do this the chances are ten to one that
the shot is lost,
"By the plan proposed," says the report
of the board, "we believe that the United
Btates will within a few yearn have more
than 1,000,000 men who will have for prac
tlal purposes on the line of battle nearly
all the requirements for the most efficient
soldiers In the world. That Is, we propose
to educate our young meh and boys over
16 years of age to be an army of expert
rifle shots. To those who are accustomed
to the use of firearms we believe ond thing
la-' evident -beyond ' all question,' .and 'it is
that a high degree of skill In' rifle and
revolver shooting and the confidence which
a knowledge of this skill gives will make
a timid man brave and a brave man more
courageous."
The board proposes to encourage rifle
practice "In the state militia where neces
sary," "In military find other schools" and
"among those Individuals who may be
called upon to serve In time cf war."
Teach loan to Shoot.
Under the last heading the report of the
board points out that it is especially de
sirable to induce practice by the younger
men, because by far the lurger part of an
army in the Held will be made up of very
young men, so that every endeavor should
be made to carry on more particularly the
practice of young civilians.
This, it recommends, should be dona by
means of shooting galleries and Acid ranges,
and suggests, in treating of the former,
that In erecting, armories for the National
Guard additional range facilities can be
provided at little additional cost. As for
out-door ranges, the report says: "It
would appear to your committee that a
most careful study should be given, and
at once, to the matter of eventually estab
lishing sufflVlent range facilities to permit
of quite general civilian rifle practice, and
for the purpose Of this study there should
bo assumed an active rifle practice by say
600,000 to 1,000,000 Individuals, and a definite
plan should be formulated which will
eventually provide facilities for the number
of men above named.-'
The plan above briefly set forth was de.
vised by a committee of the board of which
Assistant Adjutant General' W. P. JIall,
General Bird W. Spencer, president of the
National Rifle association, und I. A. Has
kell, .vice president ct the National Rifle
association, were meiifbers, and after being
adopted by the National board,' of which
Assistant Secretary of, War Robert Shaw
Oliver Is president, at Its meeting on June
11, has been approved by Secretary of War
Taft and officially promulgated by the War
department as circular No. 29, copies of
which can be obtained by addressing the
office of the military secretary, War de

NEGRO PLANK IS DROPPED
West Virginians Taat Effect It Will Ha?e

DAVIS KEEPS EYE ON THE COMMITTEE
4
Supervises Plaaka of the State Demo
cratic Platform that Might Dear
on the National Sltaa-tloa.
PARKERSRURG. W. Va., Aug. 4 A
plank opposed to negroes In politics was
not Inserted today by the West Virginia
democratic convention and Henry G. Davis,
candidate for vice president. Is credited
with keeping the plank out for fear It
would Interfere with the success of the
democratic national ticket.
While nearly every delegate, It is said,
favored a "white supremacy" plank, only
87 out of 974 delegates voted for such a
plank because of Davis' desire to avoid the
negro question. Davis was with the com
mittee on resolutions from start to finish,
to supervise. It la said, the planks of the
platform that might bear on the national
situation.
Colonel McOraw, national Committeeman
from West Virginia, and a candidate for
United States senator to succeed N. B.
Scott, secured all be wanted on the state
ticket and the state organisation. As to
national affairs the platform devotes the
first plank as follows:
"Democrats of West Virginia, In con
vention assembled, declare: 'That m-e In
dorse the platform adopted by our national
convention at St. Louis and pledge our
devoted support to the candidates of that
contention, Judge Alton B. Parker, a safe
guardian of our property and political
rights, and Henry G. Davis, our honored
fellow citizen and trusted counsellor.' "
Deals with State Iasnes.
The remainder of the platform Is de
voted to state issues. It arraigns West
Virginia republicans for extravagance,
fraudulent election tactics, failure to en
dorse a registration law, corruption In of
fice to retain power and defeating a poll
tax- law.
Chairman Dailey had no sooner finished
reading the platform than cries were
heard of "Where Is the white man's plank?"
,John J. Davis, as a member of the com
mittee, dissented on the proposition which
did not specify taxes on oil, coal and other
products.
George Byrne offered an amendment to
the unanimous report, which added the
"white man's" plank that had been so
much talked about during tne week, and an
animated discussion began on that Issue.
The following is the amendment of Byrne:
We believe that the destinies of West
Virginia should and must be sheped and
controlled by the white people of the state,
and while wcxllsclnim any purpose to do
any Injustice whatever to the negro popu
lation, yet we announce without reserve
our fixed purpose to preserve, In every con
servative and constitutional way, the so
cial and political supremacy of our own
race, believing that by the frank avowal
and conftimmatlon of such purpose .alone
can mclal contention and confllcto be per
manently avoided.
Byrne spoke In support of his amend
ment. Chairman Dailey replied, admitting the
condition that confronted the state, but In
the Interest of the national ticket that this
Was riot a time for such expression.
' The first ballot for governor resulted as
follows: Cornwell, 287; Thompson, 388; Ben
nett. 2S6.
No nomination resulted and the conven
tion proceeded to take a second ballot, as
follows:
" Corn wollrfrWJ' Thompson.' 887: Bennett, 274.
-Before the result of the third ballot had
been announced mnny delegates changed
.their votes so that Cornwell was nominated.
After Cornwell delivered his address of
acceptance the convention adjourned until

SEVERAL ' CALLERS AT ROSEMONT
Senator Bailey Believes Allarnment of
States Will Be Chan-ted.
ESOPUS, N. Y., Aug. 4.-,Alnost all pf
Judge Parker's visitors today were from
the south. Senator Bailey of Texas was
the first to arrtve. He was accompanied
by Mrs. Bailey and their son and left
Rosemont with expressions of the most
cordial admiration for Judge Parker and
of hopefulness as to the outcome of the
campaign.
. Governor A. J. Montague of Virginia
came down from Lake George, where for
several dnys he has been visiting George
Foster Peabody, the appointed treasurer
of the national committee. National Com
mitteeman H. D. Clayton and H. H.
Hatcher of Alabama constituted the re
mainder of the southern delegation. Other
visitors to Judge Parker today were
Charles R. Crane of Chicago and Alfred
Henry Lewis.
Tonight the steam yachf Sapphire brought
Judge Morgan, J. O'Brien and John P. Mc
Donald from New. York City. Judge Par
ker tonight dined on the Sapphire with
Judge O'Brien and Mr. McDonald. Senator
Bailey gave the Impression that he re
garded the coming campaign as crucial In
New York, Indiana and New Jersey. He
said:
I differ with nil of my colleagues as to
the alignment of the states In their respec
tive columns. There are states which
they call doubtful that I believe are surely
democratic and states they rail demo
cratic which I believe to be surely repub
lican. He did not say what states he had fn

TALK POLITICS AT CHtmraX'A
H 1
Cona-ressnMn . Brrie aad Wade Speak
at Fremont.
FREMONT, Nob.. Aug. 4.-(Speolnl Tele
gram.) The principal event of the Chau
tauqua today was the Joint debate between
Congressmen Bede of Minnesota and Wade
of Iowa. Mr. Bedo had the opening of
thirty minutes, in which he laid down the
proposition that the object of government
was the greatest good to all governed and
proved from the record of the republican
party that their policies had accomplished
this object. He paid a compliment to
Mr. Bryan, whose democracy, unlike that
of Judge Parker, he said, meant something.
Judge Wade, In his thirty minutes' reply,
arraigned the administration for not push
ing the prosecution of the trusts. These
topics furnished the subjects discussed
during the balance ot their time. A good
slsed audience nearly filled the tent and
both received close attention and generous
applause. As In the case of all Joint politi
cal debates, the partisans of each are sure
the ether fellow got the worst of It.

ANNEXATION NOT
SI CCESS
Governor Carter Points Ont Where
Hawaiian Inlands Snffer.
SACRAMENTO, Cal., Aug. 4-In an In
terview today Governor G. C. Carter of the
Hawaiian Islands said:
"The annexation of the islands to the
United States has not been a commercial
success so far as the Islands are concerned.
6lnee we have been United States territory
we have not made great progress. One
reason for this Is because the laws by
which we are governed are not suited to
the country.
"For Instance, we have to. obey the
United States land laws and cannot rent
government land for a period of more than
five years at a time. As It takes from two
to four years to raise a crop In our climate
we cannot find anybody that will rent Inn 1
for such a short period as five years. Thus
we nre deprived of a big Income from gov
ernment lands.
"Since we have been "annexed congress
has never dredged our harbor. It Is filling
up and thus prevents the landing ot the
larger vessels. As a result of thla otir
truffle Is falling off. ' We have dredged the
Hnrbor at out own expense since we have
been annexted, but unless It Is dredged
again we will lose much of our traffic.
"Annexation has cut off all our Internal
revenue. On the other hand, from' Uncle
Sam's point of view, annexation has been
s decided success. Over 14.250,000 has been
paid Info the United States treasury from
the Islands. The whole cost of annexation
waa only 14.000,000."

sults In purely secular studies only in our
Catholic schools, our teachers receiving
their salaries as other teachers receive
theirs; to ascertain the results let our
