especially the elege guns, and ' enormous
quantities of supplies and munitions.
Of tha present situation of the army
whether It Is utterly routed or merely
beaten, of the proportion of Russians left
In Japanese hands, or of the prospect of
tha escape of the remainder St. Petersburg
at .thla moment knows less than the small
est hamlet In America. Blncethe Asso

the brief official announcement of the re
treat has come from the Ruentan army,
General Kouropatkln'a preceding dispatch
giving the last details aa to tha positions of
the army having been written at 9 o'clock
Thursday ' evening. The members of the
general staff when asked for information
said:
We know nothing. We hone he will bring
the army oft safely, but we do not know
how he will do It. We only know he has
commenced to retreat, that Is all.
Peace Talk Is Revived.
Every one now Is discussing peace, which
many of the staunchest advocates of the
war, bureaucrats and officers, now declare
to be Inevitable. It openly Is bruited that
Rojestvetuky's fleet has been recalled and
Is now on the way homeward. The Ad
miralty when asked If the report were true
said:
"We don't know. Call again tomorrow,"
and declined to comment on the significance
of the cancellation of the purchase of col
liers or the direction of Rojestvensky's
voyage from Madagascar waters. It can
be stated, however, that no overtures for
peace yet have been made and none are
likely to be made for a few days before
the extent of tha disaster has developed.
Aside from peace defeat may bring other
changes In Its train. That an enormous
impetus has been given to the reform
movement Is plain even to the reactionary
conservative, but the Immediate result
chiefly dreaded la the effect on Internal
disorders, not only In the capital, since 8t.
Petersburg Is not Russia, but upon the
millions of peasants In the vast agricultural
regions, among whom the spirit of revolt
now Is Incubating' and already has hatched
pillage and arson In a few districts. It Is
believed, however, that the government is

Outwardly St. Petersburg takes the de
feat unconcernedly. A stranger in the
streets would never know that armies de
fending the honor and prestige of Russia
had juai sustained a crushing reverse.
There were no crowds lost night, no
demonstrations, no changes from the ordi
nary street life. Newsboys were hawking
extras on the streets mere dodgers with
three lines of General Kouropatkln's dis
patch surrounded by wide margins of blank
paper but there was nothing to indicate
that the extras were mora important than
those In which for a year General Kouro
patkln's dispatches have been issued. The
government made no attempt to palliate
the ahoek' or explain the significance of
the retreat, but simply sent the dispatch
when It was Issued by the general staff
lata In the evening direct to the papers
with authorisation to print. At the clubs
a rxl In private houses the situation was
, discussed and redlacussed, conjeoture added
to the fact, and tha Invariable query was:
"What further?"
One circle of liberals on receiving the
news called for wine and solemnly pledged,
"New Russia."
Moarmlngr 1st Many Families.
But generally the defeat cuts deeply and
Is keenly felt, especially by families repre
sented In the endangered army. The spirit
of unpatriotic exultation will do the lib
erals no good at this time, as the defeat.
Which one Russian correspondent describes
as ."slaughter, not battle," entails the
sacrifice of so many thousands of Russian
lives the people fear to count up their
losses. It is realised that in the fighting
before' Mukden was evacuated the death
roll of the battle of tihakhe must have
been far exceeded, and the streets of St.
Petersburg, where every third woman
wears crepe, will present a sombre sight
when the casualty lists arrive.
Bids People Not Despair.
4:30 a. m. The Russ, in an editorial ar
ticle this morning strikes a stirring note,
uot minimising the extent of the defeat In
Manchuria, but bidding the people not de
spair. The article contains no word about
peace, Its whole thought being uncom
promising prosecution of the war, though
it laj realized that this means months of
preparation for another battle and that
perhaps Tie pass may follow Mukden. It
does not even demand Goner! Kouropat
kln's removal, but says it Is first necessary
to determine whether Russia has a better
general. While holding up the hands of
the government in regard to the continua
tion of the war, the Russ solemnly warns
It of the necessity of Internal reforms.
, Other Influential papers are apt to take
the same stand and voice a patriotic de
mand to crown the war with victory and
.rally all forces for the prosecution of the
Dt Storm at Mnkdea.
- tip till this time no further dispatches
of yesterday's date have reached St. Peters
burg, the censors releasing, however, a be
lated dispatch dated Wednesday afternoon,
giving details of the retirement to the
Hun, river and describing the duststorm,
under the cover of which General Kouro
patkln arranged the dispositions of his re
treat "We gasp for air," the dispatch

says, "but breathe not lr, but a fine pow
der which is filling space. Irritating par
tick's of fine, yellow dust. Every gust of
wind raises and swirls this TJust. The fog
drives In denser columns before It while at
five or fix paces It-Is Impossible to distin
guish objects."
During the retirement on March 8 the
Japanese did not press the Russian rear
guards and the columns reached the Hun
positions practically unmolested. At dawn
a cannonade was opened against several
southern positions and fighting began at
several points northwest of Mukden, of the
progress of which little could be ascertained
because of the raging duststorm.
Mukden was the scene of nervous uneasi
ness, shops being closed, hotels and restau
rants ceasing to feed customers, Chinese
painting over their signs and business be
ing at a standstill. It was almost Impos
sible to get snythlng Jo eat. At the station
heavy artillery and wounded soldiers were
being loaded on trains, the overtaxed rail
road operatives, who have been working
uninterruptedly for ten days, dispatching
as best they could an average of forty
trains north dally. From March 3 to March
S over 1,300 cars loaded with artillery and
supplies were dispatched to Tie pass,
ays Peace Is Far Off.
LONDON, March 11. The announcement
of the fall of Mukden was discounted In
London by the reports chronicling the prog
ress of the great battle, but the actual oc
cupation of the capital of Manchuria by
tho Japanese is the subject of comment
everywhere, especially In diplomatic circles.
The Foreign office declined to comment on
the event, but there, as elsewhere,- there
was intense Interest In the result of the
Japanese encircling movement and Its pos
sible effect on the future progress of the
war.' Few who are well .informed were in
clined to the belief that Oyama's magnifi
cent victory and successful strategy would
bring peace within measurable distance, the
opinion being that while the Russian fight
ing force Is disabled and probably will be
obliged to retire further than Tie Pass, or
even Harbin, the fighting spirit of the Rus
sian nation would be Increased rather than
deterred by the defeat, and that only com
pulsion will bring the nation to Its knees.
Baron SuycmatsU, formerly Japanese
minister of the Interior, In the course of an
interview said that whether the victory In
dicated an early termination of the war
was a question that Russia alone could
answer.
The Japanese legation has been Inundated
with congratulations and everywhere the
prime note was the praise of the genius of
Oyama, which was conceded even by the
most pro-Russian observers.
Discussing the possibilities of peace and
Russia being cowed by the great defeat the
Spectator thinks that "despite historic
precedents It does not follow that the em
peror will make peace. He is credited with
saying that It is only necessary to retire
behind Baikal, refuse peace and rebuild
the forces till he Is again ready for ag
gressive action; and he may well consider
this course preferable to the inexpiable
shame of being beaten by an Aslatlo nation
and the possible dangers to his dynasty in
volved In making peace on the hard terms
Japan is likely to demand."
Negotiations Already Be stub.
This difficulty of predicting what line
Emperor Nicholas will take Is admitted on
all sides; but there is still in some quar
ters an opinion that peace will ensue. Ac
cording to the Dally Graphic, overtures
have already practically commenced, the
emperor's readiness ta negotiate having
been intimated to the French government
and communications having passed be
tween the British and French governments
with a view to Great Britain opening com
munications with Japan. It Is Impossible
at present to confirm or verify the state
ment of the Dally Graphic, which declares
that the decision Is due not only to the
defeat of Kouropatkin, but also to the al
most Insurmountable difficulties Russia
met in the last attempt to negotiate a
loan in Paris.
There is intense anxiety here to learn the
fate of Kouropatkln's force and . whether
the chain Oyama has drawn around them
will be strong enough to hold them. The
Russian forces must be in a terrible plight
and a repetition of all the errors of Na
poleon's retreat from Moscow Is regarded
as among the possibilities. On the other
hand, the condition of the Japanese armies
which must be suffering from exhaustion
might possibly enable Kouropatkin to
gather his forces and break through. He
Is said to have been a spectator at Sedan
and It Is believed the memories of those
days will suffice to convince him of the
hopelessness of the struggle.
No further news of any kind has reached
Londoni According to one report Kouro
patkln's last dispatch was sent from Tie
pass and that he will almost immediately
transfer his quarters to Harbin. The Daily
Telegraph's Tokio correspondent asserts
that the Russians were completely igno
rant of the movements of the Japanese and
that the appearance of the latter In the
Stnmlntln district was a complete surprise.
Kouropatkln's disaster, the correspondent
adds, was largely due to an Inefficient In
telligence department.
Yellow Peril Talk Revived.
BERLIN, March 10. Lieutenant General
Baron von Gayl, Count von Walderaee's
second in command In the China expedition,
took occasion at a meeting of the German
Asiatic society tonight to express bound
less admiration of Japanese military
genius. His remarks were called out by a
paper on "The Yellow Danger," In which
the writer had polntod out Germany's pre
carious situation in China if the Japanese
should form a rapproachment with China
and reorganise an army on Japanese lines.
"What that island people accomplished In
the last few days," said General von Gayl,
"merits the highest astonishment. 'It was
absolutely a phenomenal achievement, con
sidering the fearless, brave opponent that
the Japanese army brought to this pass.
The leadership was that of genius, and
words fall for the bravery and devotion of
the troops."
Referring to fears that China will now
engage Japanese military Instructors, Gen
eral von Gayl said: "I know not where
they can get better ones than among the
officers who captured Mukden."

PRINCE OF MODERN CROOKS
Smoothest Confidence Man in America
Again Under Arrest
SOUGHT FOR IN OVER FORTY CITIES
College Graduate, Skilled Lawyer,
State Seaator aad Mlllloaalre, Cost
vlcted Eleven Times and
Served Oae Tear.
The annals of crime In sll countries are
full of examples of men who drift Into
wrongdoing either through environment,
mental troubles, desperation, drink or the
example of criminal parents. But there are
few well authenticated cases in which no
table criminals 1 ave set out on their car
reers with absolute deliberation, when
they had no reason whatever for taking
such a course.
Alonxo J. Whlteman, the smoothest con
fidence man In America, whose escapades
have kept police officers, bankers and de
tective agencies worrying for fifteen years.
Is of this latter unusual, type. A study of
his case is full bf Interest.
Whlteman'a arrest a week ago at his
home in Dansvllle, N. Y., was brought
about after four months of careful plan
ning on the part of Buffalo police officers
and Ptnkerton detectives, following his es
cape from a moving train when being taken
to Buffalo to answer for his latest crime.
He is now in Jail awaiting the hearing of
his case and It does not seem within the
bounds of possibility that he can escape a
long sentence. But nobody who knows the
astonishing ingenuity of this man In dodg
ing conviction and his long list of success
ful appeals to courts all over America, both
before and after conviction, is any too cer
tain of the result of his present arrest.
Baak ladling His Forte.
Whlteman'a whole criminal career, which
began in 1890, has been confined almost en
tirely to the swindling of banks, bookmak
ers and gullible friends. He has accumu
lated and spent In this period considerably
over $1,000,000. The astonishing feature of
his case is that when 'he launched out In
his criminal career he was 'possessed of
large wealth, an honored family name, as
sured public position and the friendship of
many prominent men throughout the coun
try. He has been arrested In the last fourteen
years forty-three times, Indicted twenty
seven times and convicted eleven times,
With penalties totaling to fifty-one years in
the penitentiary, and during all this period
has served a sentence of but one year. The
only conviction against him that held was
secured In this City In IMS. He appealed
this case and gave bond, but vanished.
Over a year later, however, he was again
caught and served In the house of correc
tion from November, 1899, to November,
1900. The specific crime on which this con
viction was based was the passing of a
worthless draft on the Grand Pacific hotel
for 1260.
Whlteman Is a bright, Intelligent man,
cultivated, a good talker and with a talent
for making friends rapidly. He Is a church
goer and has been known to attend serv
ices while the police of the city he was in
at the time were searching for him high
and low. Once, after a conviction In Blng
hamton, N. Y., he appealed to the courts to
suspend sentence, announcing that hewaa
about to begin a series of evangelical serv
ices, that the passing of the particular
check for which he had then been arrested
was "an error of Judgment," and that If he
were locked up his Christian work would
be seriously Interfered with.
The court suspended sentence and White-
man actually did start in on an evangelical
tour -In various small towns of New York
state and converted a number of people. It
was proved afterwards that In the -middle
of this work he got away with the bank
account of a Presbyterian church amount
ing to over $4,000.
Collects Duiiki (or Theft.
The twists that Whlteman has made to
escape conviction when It seemed certain
have been remarkable, and his daring in
securing money has for years been the
talk of every police department In the
country. His operations, have not been
confined, either, to the United States. He
is "wanted" in at least twenty-seven
American Cities and in fourteen cities of
Europe.
In 1893, while he was being searched for
by the police of Chicago to serve out his
sentence for the Grand Pacific crime,
Whlteman passed a worthless check on
the Columbian bank of New York for
31,500. When the case came to trial it
seemed impossible that he should escape
conviction, but he brought four farmers
In his defense who swore that he was eat
ing dinner in company with them 200 miles
away from New York at the time when
he was supposed to have passed the check.
The alibi seemed perfect, and- he was dis
charged. Immediately beginning suit
against the Columbian bank for 310,000 for
false imprisonment.
The bank officials were thoroughly scared
and quashed the proceedings by payment
of 33,0oa A week later William Plnkerton
met Whlteman on the street in New York.
"You know you got that 31.600," he said.
"Sure," said W.hlteman, "and I got the
33,000 too. But a man has to protect his
good name. The truth of the matter is
I was with those Jay farmers twenty-four
hours before they swore to. but I made
them believe it was twenty-four hours
later."
Probably the most remarkable instance
")f Whiteman's audacity occurred in Chi
cago nine years ago, at the Washington
race track. Ninety bookmakers were do
ing business that day at the track. Get
ting hold of a leather sack, Whlteman
slung it over his shoulder and started In
to , collect 33O0 license money from each
of the bookmakera. He had actually col
lected from three, but when he approached
the fourth the man looked at hira a mo.
ment and aald:
"Who are you?" "
"Why." said Whlteman. "I am the of
ficial representative of Alonxo J. White
man. Good day." And, dodging in the
crowd, he disappeared with the 3900 and
got safely away from Chicago.
Defeads Himself la Pamphlets.
Whlteman, who never attompt to ex
cuse himself for his crimes to those who
know him Intimately or do anything in
private but glory In his escapes from con
viction, seeks at all times to give the gen
eral public the Impression that he la a
bitterly persecuted man. After almost
every occasion in which he has successfully
evaded punishment he has got out a hand
somely printed "brief," spending part of
his gains In "roasting" the Judge and pros
ecuting attorney In the particular caaa and
declaring his own Innocence. Copies of
these volumes he Invariably sends to every
chief of police In the large cities and to
ths Plnkertons.
His last effort In this direction Is en
titled "The Great Conspiracy." in it he
not only pays his respects to the Judge
who was compelled to release him on a
technicality (this time In Boston for rais
ing a draft from S3 to $2,000). but goes at
great length Into his family history says
that his brother-in-law Is the worst man
unhung and announces that "several spot
lessly pure gentlemen I could name" have
for years been engaged In a terrible plot
to ruin his good reputation, "which," he
concludes, in a final burst of enthusiasm.

he was, arrested for passing- a worthless
check for $260, but pleaded that he had

Whlteman Is wanted In New York, Phila
delphia, Pittsburg, Chicago, Boston, Brook
lyn, Ban Francisco, Omaha, New Orleans,
Minneapolis, London, Vienna, Paris, Mar
seilles, Southampton, Exeter. Manchester
and several other cities. The charge on
which he is now under arrest is that he
forged a draft on the Leather Manufac
turers' bank of New York, raising the
amount from $9 to $9,000 and then drawing
almost the entire sura out In a checking
account from the Fidelity Trust company
of Buffalo.
A glance at his record shows that there
Is a possibility pf his getting out of this
trouble by tie identical legal quibble that
he used flva years ago In Denver when,
after being, convicted for a term of four
years In the penitentiary, he won his case
on appeal by showing that he had been
convicted of "forgery" when in reality tho
signature on the draft was genuine, the
crime having been In the raising of the
amount. It Is unfortunate that the Buf
falo Indictment also charges aa "forgery"
this identical orime, though the New York
law permits the amending of the wording of
the charge.
Father Left a Fort one.
Whlteman was born In Dansvllle In 1861,
his father, Reuben Whlteman, being one of
the leading men vpf the town, president
of the v Whlteman Pulp and Paper com
pany and of the Merchants' and Farmers'
National bank and the owner of large
timber tracts in the west When he died
In 1888 he left an estate valued at $760,000,

Minn., where his latner owned large prop
erty Interests, and rapidly made friends.
In 1884 he was nominated for the state
legislature and carried the city of Duluth
by the biggest majority ever given to any
candidate for an elective office at that place.
In 1886 ha was nominated and elected to
the Minnesota senate, and while Id that
body he drafted and seoured the passage
of an election -law which wW known by
his own name and which served as a model
for several states before the adoption of
the Australian ballot system.
Whlteman was then made chairman of
the slate democratic committee and was
afterward a delegate to the national demo
cratic convention in 1888. In 1889 he was
an unsuccessful candidate for . congress
from the Fifth Minnesota district Unsuc
cessful, however, only because of a large
normal republican majority.
He did not seem to take his defeat very
greatly to heart .With what his father had
left him and his own large earnings In
speculations Whlteman had by this time
amassed property valued at over $1,000,000.
His wife, daughter of a retired general in
the United Sattes army, was as universally
admired aa himself. Whlteman was an ar
dent church worker and probably tha most
popular man In Duluth.
There can be no question that Whlteman
is a criminal from deliberate and cold
blooded choloe, without necessity of any
kind to spur him on. His brilliant talents,
flung for pastime Into the perpetration of
crime, have kept him for years out of the'
hands of justice.
But retribution, though she Is a slow
moving force, hangs with dogged patience
on the trail of such as these. Her chase
will only be stayed when Whiteman's future
prospects are bounded by the cold walls of
a penitentiary cell. Chicago Record-Herald.
