Mukden Reports That Positive
Information Shows Japanese
Not Ready to Do Battle
Mukden, Nov. 19—The position at
the front Is unchanged.
Positive Information received here
contradicts previous reports and says
that the Jupariese hafe decided not
to begin a serious opel-atlon on Muk-
den befohe there Is a definite result at
Port Arthur, either the fall of the fort-
ress or a necessity for the Japanese
to bring up re-inforcements from Ja-S
pan and rercommence the arduous
work of the Beige. Until then they In-
tend to confine themselves merely to
holding the Russians in check.
* Opinion is divided regarding the pos-
sibility or the intention of the Japan-
ese making a flanking movement. The
desultory cannonading .today did not
signify anything.
In th«® absence of all reliable*news
the expectations regarding Port Ar-
thur being takfti have so far subsided
that the possibility of the garrison
making a last stand against time at
the Golden Hill and Tigers tnil forts
Is discussed. Ofllceri who have Just ar-
rived here from the extreme right say
that the fighting which has commenced
there shows that the Japanese are ap-
parently testing l* th the Russian
flanks in turn.

by a Dutch engineer named Kooy, who \y
connected with the wireless telegraph
system Kamchatka, belonging to Vioe-

shortly after the Kamchatka anchored at
Skagen for coal. « wireless message was
received stating that four torpedo boats
which had been purchased by Japan hart

St. Louie, Nov. If.—The Missouri state
building was destroyed by Are tonight,
resulting from the explosion of> a hot
water heater In the basement. Instantly
the flames shot up through the rotunda
and the north wing and cupola were a
solid mass of flames within ten minutes
aft^t the explosion. The loss cannot be
estimated accurately, owing to the tem-
porary nature of the construction ma-
terial which baa no salvage value*
The principal loss la In the contents
of the building. The building cost $145,-

Eight streams of water poured into the

said:
"The building as It stood, with nil the
