marine declared that tha revival of the
martial spirit at Port Arthur since the
arrival there of Vice Admiral Makaroff
was apparent, and he expressed the hope
that the Russians would emerge boldly
from the harbor and attack the Japanese
fleet.
The house unanimously adopted a resolu
tion encouraging the government, praising
the navy and pledging Itself to spare no
eost In the prosecution of the war.
In the House of Representatives Count
Katsura, the premier, warmly thanked the
members because the attempt made to
effect the expulsion of M. Ogawa had not
resulted successfully. M. Ogawa Is the
member who recently moved to the expul
sion of Editor Aklyama, another member
of the house, who was charged with being
In the pay of Russia. Friends of Aklyama
declared In the discussion today that there
was more reason to suspect Ogawa than
Aklyama of having accepted Rusplan pay.
After a brief and boisterous debate the
motion to expel Ogawa was sweeplngly de

Russians Will Not Permit Correspond
ent to Stay In Port Arthur.
ST. PETERSUURG, March 29. A war
correspondent of the Russky Vledomostl,
writing from Harbin, Manchuria, says he
has not been permitted to proceed to Port
Arthur, and adds he will not be allowed
to go to the front from Hurbln until April
1. All the correspondents have been ex
pelled from Port Arthur because one of
them mentioned In his dispatches Impor
tant information regarding the movements
of Russian troops. ,
. Forecasting the result of the war In the
far east the Novostl declares there is no
'more doubt as to who will be the eventual
victor than there was at the commencement
tf the Oreeco-Turkish, the Spanlsh-Amer-
lean or the Boer wa.
."For Japan, tha war ts a life and death
struggle," continues the Novostl. "It places
everything On one card. For Russia, It Is
really only a colonial war, and even de
feat would leave the empire not greatly
affected, while success would be sure to
'Mean a great, . stimulus tp the Russian
colonisation of Manchuria, where.it Is rea.
so nubia to suppose many soldiers will settle
After the struggle la over. -,
"But," adds the paper, "Russia should
not pay too high a price for this colonial
Empire and, therefore, should conserve aa
'fas aa possible the army and the fleet."
' .The Novostl publishes a long article on
rthe Jewish question, combatting the Asser
tions of some antl-Bcmltlc newspapers that
the Odessa Jews are doing everything to
precipitate a repetition of the Klshlneft
. affair by expressing sympathy with ti.e
Japanese. The Novostl-denounces the alle
gations as monstrous falsehoods, declaring
tbat the Jews throughout the empire have
patriotically volunteered their servloes, and
attacks the antl-semitlcs for attempting
COhstantly to sow race hatred. .

I LONDON, March 29. Tho Associated

ha no Intention of protesting against the
Russian action in declarlag martial law at
New Chwang. An endeavor will be made
In th ordinary way and after the cessation
ot hostilities to secure compensation for
such Brltlah merchant a are pecuniarily
affected.
It his not yet been decided whether the
British consul will remain at New Chwang,
but this matter is not considered of serious
Importance. It Is pointed out at the for
eign office that neither th United State
nor Great Britain aver considered New
Chwang neutral, and when Secretary Hay'
note was received It was tacitly admitted
that New Chwang might quite likely be
one of the points of a Japanese attack and
the Ruaslana are considered quite within
their right In taking the necessary step
to prevent polble Japanese aggression.

TOGO'S nKPORT OF NAVAI FIGHT.
Lost Four Men in Attempt to Bottle
' l'p Port Arthur.
WASHINGTON, March 29 The Japanese
legation has received from Toklo the fol
lowing official report made ' by Admiral
Togo respecting the second attempt to
bottle up" the Port Arthur squadron:
About 8:30 a. m. of the 27th of March th
bottling up" squadron, composed of four
ships, escorted by the torpedo boat dn-
stroyer flotilla and torpedo tooat flotilla,
reached, outside of Port Arthur, and, with-
out minding the searchlights of the onemy,
steered straight towards the entrance of
the harbor. .
At about two marine leagues from the
entrance the ."bottling up" squadron was
discovered by the enemy. Thereupon the
shore batteries and guardshlp showered
hot fires upon the squadron, but In splto
of the terrific fire the ships made their
way Into the Inner roadstead, one arter the l
other. '
The steamer Chlyo Maru, anchored at a
position about. a half. a cable from the
Golden hill, blew up Itself and sunk. The
Fukul Maru passed a little ahead of the
Chlyo Maru by Its left side and at the
moment when It was lowering anchor was
shot by a torpedo from tne enemy s oe- I
stroyers and sunk In that position. Rachl-

Russian embnssy point out that the ne
gotiation following the progress of Sec
retary Hay's note on China left Manchuria
within the tone of military operation. and
they say that the substitution of military
for civil authority followed a a result of
the military regime In Manchuria.
It la also pointed out that Rula gave
notice to the foreign governments before
laying torpedoes in the harbor of New
Chwang and gave notice also of other
defensive measures. It is maintained that
since this brought no protest, Russia's right
to adopt all the necessary defensive meas
ures la conceded.
FIRED FIRST SHOT OF THE WAR,
Thla Honor Claimed by the Korlets,
Which Japs Stink.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 29 According
to a letter received from an officer or
the Russian gunboat Korletx. which was
destroyed by the Japanese at Chemulpo,
his ship technically fired the first shot of
the war, but this shot was not flred until
after the Japanese had fired three tor
pedoes in an effort to sink the Korelti.
The officer writes that on February 8,
without knowing that there had been even
rupture In diplomatic relations, the
Korelta left Chemulpo for Port Arthur with
dispatches from M. Pavloff, the RuHttlnn
minister to Corea, and met the Japanese
cruiser and torpedo squadron while still
In neutral waters.
Being unsuspicious the Korelts steamed
between the two divisions of the squadron
with the tarpaulins still covering its guns,
when It was noticed that the cruisers were

WASHINGTON. March 29. Minister Con
ger has cabled the State department from
Peking that the Russian authorities have
declared martial law at New Chwang and
have so formally notified all foreigners.
Mr. Conger's message makes no reference
to the reported hauling down of foreign
flags by the Russians. The officials here
assume that If this had been done it Klmply
means that Russia has assumed the re-
eponslbility for the protection of foreign
property belonging to the belligerents, but
that no effort will be made to Interfere
with the consular flags. Nor does Mr.
Conger refer to the reported notice from
the Russian authorities at New Chwang

of the Davis boy, who Is an orphan. The
