The Death Penality.
A little thing sometimes results
in death. Thus a mere scratch, in-
significant cuts or puny boils have
paid the death penalty. It is wise
to have Bucklen's Arnica Salve ever
handy. It's the best salve on earth
| and will rrevent fatality, when
r Burns, Sores, Ulcers and Piles
threaten. Only 25c, at all druggists.

London. Atiff. 29.—The Dally Mall't
correspondent at Kobe In n. disptach
dat-d Saturday last, says:
"Following Is the position of Fort

all the outlying fortifications, but the
Russians Mill hold tb citadel on Ante-
shan. Golden Hill forts and the forts on
Tiger's Tail and Liaoti mountain. The I
Japanese aie In possesion of the pa-

j Anteshan forts on the outskirts. The
fall of Pott Arthur is believed to lie

riaon will tnnk.? a desperate sortie be-

According to a dispatch to the Daily
Mall from Koupangt/.e. dated Aug. 27.
Russian st-flT officers confess them-
selves In the dark as to the meaning
of the Japanese movempritu, and that
consequently they have no definite
plan.
The Chronicle's correspondent with
General Kuroki, cabling under date of
Aug. 25, says: "The fall of Port Ar-
thur is imminent. The Japanese are
now within th^ main defenses, and their
guns command the town. Desperatie
fighting occurs night and day, and the
losses on both sides are enormous. The
Russians are making furious counter
attacks, but the Japanese at"? clinging
to the position they have won at so
great a cost."

GAME OF CHECKERS.
This l What Mayor Harrison Says of
Strike Situation.
Chicago, Aug. 29.—The labor leaders
to-night announced that In all proba-
bility the packinghouse strike would be
"settled peaceably" before Wednesday
of next week. They declined to explain
their belief but were positive in their
statement that the strike wouldn't be
called off. President Donnelly, of the
Butcher's union has called all the
members of the butcher's executive
board to meet in this city next
Wednesday.
Union leaders and packers conferred
with the committee appointed by the
city council to seek terms of settlement
of the stock yards strike.
The packers gathered at the office*
of Nelson, Morris & Co., where a con-
ference on the proposed attempt to set-
tle the strike by the aldermen was dis-
cussed. The conference was a private
one, but Alderman Thomas Carey was
admitted and remained for almost an
hour.
"It Is a game of checkers," said May-
or Harrison, at the end of an hour's
conference with President Donnelly,
I and his committee. "The strikers have
| not changed their positions," said the
mayor, "and the meeting resulted only
In the aldermen being given a full ex-
planation of what their position Is.
Piasi lent Donnelly told of the history
of the original strike, the agreement
to resume work and the strikers side
of the renewal of the strike."
