ratary of War Taft addressed a Re
publican rally In armory hall here this
afternoon. The secret ary tn defending
President Rooaavelt, aaldi
“No man ever oat In the presidential
chair more anxious to avoid war or
onfllct with foreign nations than doss
President Roosevelt. Ills Impulsive
lees of manner and hts quickness of
thought end speech co-exist wit
real Conservatism of action that makes
It aa certain aa It was under Mr. Mc
Kinley that no policy will be followed
heedlessly expoalng the Interest of the
th«- country to the peril of war. It Is
difficult to answer such a gratultoui
■uggeatlon. finding, aa It must be. the
assumption that n man like Theodore
Roosevelt, whose candor and honesty
are so patent that he almost thinks
aloud, hna been playing a part for three
years and la only awaiting the success
at the election to throw off tho mask.
It la too ridiculous for dlscuaelon.'
Mr. Taft took up the Philippine
question, saying: "The Republicans
hope that the tlmo may come when
they may be granted Independence and
think that It will come, but the reason
why they are not In favor of promising
that, la because such a promise will
•ally mislead the Filipino people and
>atly complicate the situation In the

COTTON TRADE.
President Master 8plnnsrs Association
Expresses His Views.
MANCHESTER Aug. 26.—W. C.
Macara, president of the Master Cot
ton Spinners' Association. In reviewing
the position of the cotton trade, said
that In the past eight months the
short time move had proved to be the
most successful effort made In the
cotton trade, an average of nearly 90
per cent of the members of the Federa
tion of Cotton Spinners having loyally
adhered thereto. He estimated that
the total reduction In the consumption
of American cotton throughout the
world whs not far short of n million
hales. These experiences President
Macara said should convince all growers
and handlers that If the prices should
be raised, cither by scarcity or by (HI
nlpulatlon to so high on averuge as
that which obtained during the season
of 1893-4, the consumption of manu
factured products would be correspond
ingly reduced. He said the hopeful
prospect for the future was that cotton
users In all directions were at least
realising tlielr power.

Used Fire Alarm for Letter Box.
ATLANTA. Aug. 26.—Timothy
Bailey, of Newberry, Fla., ahould pro
vide hlmaelf with & guardian when
aver he leaves home for the purpoae
of vialtlng large cities. He came to
Atlanta ft few days ago and this morn
ing when he strolled out upon the
streets for the purpose of finding
letter box In which to deposit a letter,
rung In a fire alarm and brought out
the entire fire department. Asking
aome one on the atreets where he could
find a letter box. thla supposed friend
pointed out a fire alarm box and told
him to turn the handle and the door
would fioy open. He turned the handle
hut the box did not open. Instead he
waa soon the center of attraction for a
half hundred angry firemen, and a aim
liar number of cltlxens. who lost no
time In making all the fun possible out,
of him. Bailey was gathered by a big
policeman, and would have been locked
up but for the kindness of Chief Joy
ner, who. realising that the man had
been mnde the subject of n joke,
■tructed the officer to make no enso.
Bailey had never seen a fire alarm box
before, and In consequence was enally

August 26.—Af-
tor four weeks* Interval the Japanese
:- ive resumed their advance against
Gen. Kuropatkln*# positions. The op
posing armies are In contact east, and
south of Lino Yang and fighting has I
en in progress since Wednesday.
nce the rains ceased a week ago j
*re have been continued intimations
that Gen. Kuropatkln was about to
hsume the offcr.stve, but Instead of
that It was the Japanese who attack-
J the Russian commander’s Eastern
and Southern positions.
Japanese column, 30,000 strong,
reported on Tuesday to be march-
up the right bank of the Lianhe
which would seem to indicate
that three Japanese armies are co
operating in enveloping three sides of
■jao Yang. From the accounts receiv-
1 it appears that Gen. Kurokl select
ed Tantzlapudzy as the point for his
attempt to drive the wedge into Ku-
ropatkln’s outer defenses at Anping and j
Llandaiansla, which are situated res
pectively ten miles West and South
west of Tanzlaputzy, the latter being
on the Lianhe river, eight miles above
the confluence of Tqltse river, whence
a mountain ridge runs Westward.
The fact that the Japanese are pre
paring pontoons at the Taltse river
was noted In these dispatches several
days ago. The capture of this ridge j
will be the first object of the Japanese
and will entail severe fighting In which
th* Japanese probably are counting on |
the superiority of their mountain guns, j
If they aro successful the Russian po
sitions ot Anping and Liandlansian
will become precarious. The opera- }
lions on Anping ore supported from
Gutciatsy, three miles higher up the
Lianhe rlvor and along the Taltse river. j
as shown in the dispatch reporting that
tho Russians* fort South of the T<ze
river was engaged and that Oen. Ku-
roki was simultaneously moving on
Ltanadlslan along the high roads, as
reported from Liao Yang last night,
and by the fact that another Japanese
column Is moving on Liandlansian
along the South road from Staollndaey,
ten miles Northeast of Halcheng. That
Oen. Kuropatkln had foreseen these
various moves is shown by'the manner
In which the attack on Tanzapu was
met and by the repulse of the Japanese
at Slaollndsey.

Japs Advance to Russian Front.
KANT8ERLUN (seven miles south
east of Liao Yang). Aug. 20.—Contrary
to the expectations of tne Russians, tho
Japanese are beginning to advance
along the whole line of the Russian
enatern front. On the morning of Aug.
24 there, was a rifle skirmish and the
next day the Japanese artillery opened
fire. On both days the firing ceased
at dusk and the small energy- displayed
by the Japanese might have been taken
to Indicate that It was merely a dem
onstration or a reconnolsaance In force.
On the morning of the 26th, however,
the rifle and artillery fire was renewed
with an energy that left no doubt that
severe buttle was Intended. The
Japanese pushed their attack against
the Russian right flank and concen
trated their fire upon the first bnttory
of the third brigade.
Tfirce officers and seven men were
wounded early In the day. but the bat
tery held Its position and replied to
the Japanese fire with such marked
effect that General Ivanoff (who com
mands the late Genoral Count Keller’s
corps) sent n congratulatory message
to Its commander.
The Japanese several times attempt
ed to cross the Tankcho (Llnnk river),
but only a few succeeded, and these
were forced to hide In the fields of
Chinese corn. At 2 o'clock In the af
ternoon the artillery became as hot as
If waa at Vnfangow. but it fluctuated
considerably and occasionally the Rus-
slon fire almost silenced that of the
Japanese. Rain fell In torrents nt 4
o'clock, but It dl not stop the fighting.
un*l late In the evening Severn! Rus
sian companies moved forward to the
attack. It la not yet possible to state
definitely the result of the battle, but it
la claimed that he Russians were suc
cessful. There la a prospect of more
fighting tomorrow.

Destruction of tho Bsstllo.
It la not generally realised, says the
Manchester Guardian, that the de
struction of the famous Bostlle. the
anniversary of which has just been
celebrated In France, had been decided
upon by the government of Louts XVI,
before the people took the business In
hand themselves In so drastjc a fash
ton. As a matter of fact, however, it
is shown by contemporary documents
that the "Royal Castle of the Baatlle'
had for some time been earmarked by
the authorities for demolition. In 1788
Its governor had suggested that
should be pulled down and the prt
•oners taken to Vlnelnnes. A little
before that the architect Corbet had
brought forward a plan by which
“public square to the honor of Louis
XVI" was to take Its place. An equqs
Irian statute of the king was to have
stood where now stands the Column of
July, and round It a whole new suburb
of Paris waa to have been built. In
June. 1789. another similar scheme
waa proposed by Davy de Chevlgnc.
Including a column. Imitated from that
of Trajan, 170 feet in height. The docu
ments In question show that one or
other of these prospects would cer
tainly have been adopted had not tha
revolution settled the matter before
the official mind could moke itself up.
The Rest Czsr.
A high Russian official has re
according to a writer In the <
Harper’s Weekly, described the «
believing seriously that he is
I lenten;.ut on earth ;that he Is
under divine guidance, and can do no
wrong. He has long ceased to read
books, and Is Incapable of listening to
sound advice. This picture, thinks tha
Weekly writer, may be exaggerated or
false, “but U corresponds with the Im
pressions that prevail at this distance,
that the young exar la a dreadfully
ovvt weighted man. not at all up to his
tremendous job. not able to choose and

Unless a number of terms, more
beneficial to the city's treasury, aro
made pretty soon. It la doubtful that
the Forepaugh-Bells' big circus will
play here during the coming Fair.
Yesterday Mr. 8. II. Semon, who
Is the advance agent of the big show,
was In Macon and was present nt a
meeting of the executive committee of
the Fair Association. His purpose was
to arrange matters so that the show
might be installed within the race
track paddock. He made a number
of offers to the committee but aa yet
nothing definite has been decided.
It la the Intention of tho Fair direc
tors to so arrange matters, that, ahould
the clrcua be granted the park privi
leges, the local end ot the deal will
come out better than was the case Inst
year. Mr. Semon was not asked to
close any specific deal with the Fair
men, but will probably do so today.
