must be.
They are, good stock, have
either light or weltcd soles, and
should wear very well.

National Committeeman Homer 3..
Cummings of Stamford was in New
Haven. yesterday, having come up in
company with Chairman J. J. Walsh of
the democratic state committee to at:
tend the meetings of the national i
delegates to the St. Louis convention
1nd also that of the state central
committee at the Tontlne hotel. The;
national committeeman is entitled by
courtesy to a seat in the meetings ofi
the state central committee. His capa-
city is an advisory one and he has no
vote.
Mr. Cummnigs held what might al-
most be termed a levee in and in front 2
of the Tontlne hotel which was head-i
quarters of the 50 prominent demo-l
crats who gathered here. This was his 3

(Sentiment from iirst paw”
The assertion that the Japanese
troops had violated the Red Cross
rule as provided by the Convent call
of Geneva undi'l‘he Iicgue. by iltln on
a train of wounded at Polandlen about
ioriy miles north of Port Arthur. on
May 0. has been proved to have no
foundation In fact. 0n the contrary.
according to an investigation made by
the military authorities, at the request
of Minister of Foreign Affairs Komu-
mun, if there was any violation of the
rules upon the occasion mentioned. the
guilt must be charged to the Russians
themselves and not to the Japanese.
The officers in command or the hp
nneae column advancing on Polandien
report that when approaching that
place on May ti they discovered a train
moving northward from the dlreclion
of Port Arthur which bore none of
the marks required by the Red Cross
and had Russian troops on board,
which opened fire. to which the Japan-
one promptly responded. Suddenly
the train stopped and displayed the
Red Cross flag. The Japanese troops
immediately stopped firing and moved
forward to investigate. when suddenly
the train started ahead full speed and
escaped.
Japanese Crowded on Transports.
SEOUL. Monday, May 9, via. snang-
hai. May iii—The second Japanese
army. numbering 70,000 men, left Chin-
ampo on 83 transports May 4. The sol-
diets were crowded on board the ves.
sels in the closest manner, one ship
having 3,800 men on board. The men
were so closely packed between decks
that exercise was impossible and very
little air was obtainable. But. In spite
of these discomforts. there was no
grumbling among the troops.
Every precaution was taken to pre
vent news of the departure of the army
from leaking out. The residents of
chinampo were strictly disciplined and
no one was allowed to enter or leave
the town. Three Americans, howev-
er, succeeded in escaping from Chin~
ampo on board a junk. Twelve days
later they reached Cbemnlpo.
The Japanese will probably compel
the emperor of Korea to resume his
residence at the Kauvei Palace, from
which he had after the fire broke out
at the palace April it and sought ref-
uge in the Ksuisenkeln building. This
would make Japanese influence over
the emperor supreme.
The Japanese merchants, soldiers
and coolles are becoming arrogant and
the Koreans are subordinated and
helpless. ‘
The Japanese have established a na-
val base at Port Lazaref, on Broughton
Bay, a short distance north of Gen-San.
The entrance of Port Lazaref la de-
fended by mines.
The Russian squadron at Vladlvis-
lot: is practically bottled up by the
Japanese fleet. Japanese scouting
vessels are watching the harbor.
it is asserted here that only one di-
vision of the second army will be
landed on, the LtaoTpng Peninsula.
and it is asserted that the rest of this
army will go ashore at Talia-Shah.
Russian Situation Serious.
ROME. May 13.—A secret report re
celved from St. Petersburg depicts the
internal situation of Russia as .ecom-
ing most serious as regards the preser-
vation of the present institutions, the
military failures in the Far East hav-
ing strengthened the opinion that the
evils are due to the present organiza-
tion of the country, in which a change
is necessary.
The hope is expressed that the em-
peror himself, seeing the danger,.will
be induced to grant the country a con-
stitution. In which event. it is assert-
ed, the enthusiasm of the people will
become so great as to render it pos-
sible to raise an army and collect the
mass necessary . to defeat Japan.
Otherwise. the report says, it is be.
lieved, all the eiforts made at St. Pct-
ersburg will remain futile, as besides
the war In the Far East Russia will be
obliged to face a latent if not an open
revolutionary movement at home, do
privlng her of the assistance of the
most progressive elements of the em-
pire, such as the Poles and Finns.
Russian Denial of a Fight.
NEW CHWANG, May 13, noon—The
Russians deny the report circulated in

Kore atkln's Plans Guarded.
ST. PE ERSBURG. May lit—«2:25
p. m.-—Empcror Nicholas will leave
Tsarskoye—Selo (16 miles south of this
city) Sunday evening for Moscow and
Kharoff and will return to Tsarskoye-
Solo, Msv 22.
Much uncertainty exists here as to
s’xactly what is occurring at the thea-
ter of war. as much in regard to the
Russian movements as to those of the
enemy. General Kuropatkin's plans
we moat carefully guarded. Although
he is believed to be concentrating
mops near Lino-Yang very little act-
ual information on the subject is ob-
tainable. The general impression,
however, is that heavy fighting will oc-
nr within a fortnight.
Advices received by the general
stud indicate. that the Japanese are
pushing the campaign in Southern
Manchurla with great energy. The
rainy season, which will render the
roads almost impassable, begins in six
weeks..and the latest beliefhere is
that the enemy hopes to make his po-
sition secure by a decisive engagement
before the rains set in. The army 0r~
gun believes that at least eight divis-
ions of the enemy not counting 20,000
men in the lower part of the Liao-Tung
peninsula, are in South Manchuria. As
to the force advancing along the Lit-
toral from the Yalu, where it Is believ-
ed another army has landed, informa-
tion is very Incomplete.

All ofthese forces. at their rate of
traveling, are due at their destination
Sunday or Monday. The Russians'are
in the. dark as to the place where to
await the Japanese attack. It is co -
sldered probable that the normal
force will be heavily reinforced and
that a simultaneous attack of the
southern division will clear the 1.11“}
road to New Chwang and permit the
enemy ”to move directly northward and
strike the Russian hank at Lise-Yang
or Multden, in co-operation with ,tib
force which was at Samats‘y Wednsb- ,
day. The Russians intend to make at:
attempt to hold one or two stations-on
the railroad, but which of them is not
known. . 7
