to French sympathy for the Boer cause

Chefoo, July 14, 8 a. m.—Private
advices just received from Newchwang
indicate that the long expected battle
between Kai C'hou and Ta Tche Kiao
is now in progress.
Chefoo, July 13 —A dispatch receiv-
ed from Lloyd's agency at Newchwang
says:
"Japanese scouts were seen this
morning at Blackwoods Pond, six
miles south of here.
"General Oku with 50,000 men is ad-
vancing rapidly between this place
and Ta Tche Kiao.
"Shipping and trade are progress-
ing as usual."
Ta Tche Kiao, July 13 —A Russian
correspondent of the Associated Press
in the field, describing the fighting
which preceded the capture of Kai
C'hou, says that the Japanese did not
display their customary prudence.
They advanced in open formation with
cries of "Banzai," meeting the hail
of artillery and rille fire from Maj.
] Gen. Kondi-atsvitch's m?n and being
| literally mowed down. The dead and
wounded were so thick that the red
cross and coolie burial parties worked
the whole night.
| During the fight, the correspondent
j says, the Russians took prisoner a
; Japanese arrayed in Chinese dress
j who was on a hill hehographing all
j the Russian movements.
j It is the belief of the correspondent
. that the Japanese are doing their best
to conceal their main objective, wlth-
| drawing, advancing and shifting po-
i sltions in tbe most puzzling fashion
until it is Impossible to tell where
they will strike a blow.
He also reports the activity of the
Chinese bandits in the valley of the
Liao river, especially at Yin Kow.
The Sin Min Ting railroad, the cor-
respondent believes, is under the com-
mand of the Japanese with consent of
China.
The few days of rain and the subse-
quent neat have fouled the available
water, but the soldiers after a hot
days ma.-ch cannot be restrained from
drinking it. The troops often sleep
on marshy ground, breathing the un-
wholesome atmosphere.
Ths correspondent repeats the re-
port that the Japanese are suffering
from cholera and dysentery.
St. Petersburg, July 12.—A dispatch
from a Russian correspondent at Muk-
den, dated July 12, says:
"According to intelligence received
here the Japanese last night attacked
positions near Port Arthur and were
repulsed with enormous losses, not
less than 3<),000, it is said.being killed
or wounded by our mines."
St. Petersburg, July 13, 7:30 a. m.—
The general staff has received no in-
formation regarding the reported at-
tack on positions near Port Arthur
and the loss of 30,000 Japanese killed
or wounded by Russian mines.
London, July 13.—The Morning!
Post's Shanghai correspondent says
that the Japanese casualties by land
mines at Port Arthur Sunday night
are reported to have been 28,000, but
none of the many special war dU-1
patches mention a Japanese disaster
at Port Arthur.
Chefoo, July 13, noon.—A French-
man, who arrived here on a junk from
Port Arthur this morning, reports
that on July 7 the Japanese captured

PACKING STRIKE SITUATION.
Kansas City, July 13.—Meat prices
have advanced In Kansas City and in
nearly all of the other large cities.
The Armour and Fowler and Swift
packing houses are killing on a very
1 small scale.
•r.h3 central body of the unions in
Chicago Is discussing the possibility
of arbitration as a means of settling
the strike.
The packers generally are ffeHIuiT-
ready to resume with non-union labor,
Tbe foregoing states briefly the con-
dition of the packing house strike to-
| day. The advance in meat prices was
I not unexpected. In Kansas City the
packers have advanced prices on only
a few classe3 of fresh meat, but unless
I there shall be a change in the situa-
tion by tomorrow greater advances
may be expected. The packers say
i their supply of fresh meat is small
and will only last a few days unless
1 replenished and that all of thein have
trade that must be protected. They
have plenty of ham and bacon and
! those who don't want to pay the high
j prices for beef will have a chance to,
! live on cured pork products for a few
! days, possibly a few weeks,
: Another thing that will discommode
; tbe meat buyer is th ■ fact that it won't
. lie long before he will have to buy
only such fresh meat as he can get.
He won't have much choice. He may
have to eat liver when he wants por-
I terhouse, and he may be compelled to
• content himself with Texas beef, grass
fed, when he wants corn fed Kansas
beef But such inconveniences come
in a time of strike and the packers
' tbink they will be doing well to fur-
nish any kind of fresh meat. They
also say that the strike came in a good
time for the people, as beef is less
used in hot weather than at any other
time in the year
