A rumor is current at the admiralty that the Japanese battleship Yashima is on the rocks near Port Arthur. Gen. Kouropatkin is reversing Gen. Kuroki's flanking movement north of Saimatsza, by sending troops from Mukden to turn Kuroki's right wing. The Japanese forces near Port Ar thur have been heavily reinforced. It is believed that an attempt to take the fortress by assault will be made so soon as the Japanese are strong enough to invest it on the land side and at the same time protect them selves from possible attack in the rear in case the Russians send a foree from the north.

New Caps For Postie -- The Panama Hat Steps Down And Out--Steamer Crushes Into Freight Shi Spcelal Corredoonbine: 1a Priti-h Whig Boston, Mass, June 9.--Panama hats are out of style this year, and the 830 and over paid last year, and one which was to have lasted a life: time is put on the shell, and & three dollar one takes its place. This ix bad enough, but the ladies' hats cost as much as one of these everlasting Panamas and change every season, so the men on thinking the question over are not at so much of a loss as they were only caught once, It is very nice to be up-to-date, but fashions and styles come high, especially when they chang with the weather, The mail carriers and collectors have been 'treated to a new style of hat than heretofore prescribed by Uncle Sam. Up to this season grey caps have been 'worn, but the departments have given them light brown, soft felt hats, which make a pleasing contrast with their gray flannel uniforms, The building occupied for years by Kidder, Peabody & 'Co. of world famed repute in the banking system, was of an old type and only five storeys in height, and is being torn down to be replaced hy a twentieth: century skyscraper. In one corner is a portion of the undemolished structure in which the company are still carry ing on business without a roof over their heads and surrounded on all sides by scaffolding. On the front of the building is a large sign, "Open For Business." The firm cannot afford to leave the location so long occupind by them, and are going to remain in their old quarters until a scetion of the new one iv ready for ocenpancy, offices look like a contractor's store room, but instead of containing build ing material, it contains many mil lions of cash and securities, Automobiles are nearly as common as horses only of a greater variety of style, size and color, Of horseflesh There are somo fine animals owned hy private individuals' for carriage pur poses only, but the autos are used by private individuals for pleasure and by mercantile and express houses as delivery waggons, There is the palace ear kind, the small noisy runabouts with the escaping ~ steam pouring ont from the 'rear and those run by gaso lene, which can be we wl before they can be geen, All machi have to be registered and have the card with their registration number hung in a conspicuous place. According to these statistics there are over five thousand automobiles owned in the ity. The blue number is a telltale for those who think their speed is unlimited and in most cases they all have the same idea when they get the rubber suit and goggles on. For the past three summers Boston has been favored with exceptionally cold weather throughout the season. Save for a few days this year has been very cool, amd even now licht overcoats are worn in the evening. When a change in temperature takes place here it is very sudden. Last Saturday at 11 p.m. it was 76 degrees and at 2 a.m., Sunday, it was 32 de- grees, a change of 44 degrees in three hours. This is due to the cast winds, which make Boston so hard to keep in touch with the weather, as these changes come without warning. Charles L. Tucker was indicted by the Middlesex grand jury this mora: ing, at Fast Cambridge, on the charge of murder in the first degree, of Miss Mabel Page, of Weston. It is altogether likely he will be arraiened carly next week, when a date will be fixed, probably in early September, for his trial. The news will be commumnics ated to him when his brother and counsel visit him in his cell. The terms of the indictment have not been made public and will not until the arraignment. His immediate relatives believe that a trial before the jury will clear him. His mother, when in- terviewed, said. she was now fully con- vineedl of her son's innocence, and while realizing the punishment of eon. finement in jail, vet she thinks he will vindicated at the next trial. While trying to reach hor berth ina dense fog early. this morning Gover nor Dingley, of the Eastern Steam- ship company, crashed into a freight shed near India wharf, endangering the lives of several firemen from the fire boat, who were asleep and passed within a fev feet of a compartment Captain Ritchie and eleven fire min of Company 3 were asleep. The steamer was wedged in the shed amidst shattered timbers and ruined freight, amounting to several hundred where dollars. At dawn the ill fated steam- er was pulled awav by a tee and when she was withdrawn a portion of the end of the shed fell into the water entailing: a further loss of property. The damage to wharf will be about £1,000, and to the steamer S500. At the time the captain was trying to effect a landing a gust of wind, swung the bow of the boat around, which placed him in a verv danoerous position, and he had only two chane- es to save himself, one was to crash into a Metropolitan line steamer, which would probably have resulted in surprise, and it was thought that the governor's wishes would be carried out and the bill passed.
