ST. PETERSBURG. -Lieutenant
General istoessel, commanding tbe
Russian forces st Port Artbur, re
ports by telegraph tbat 00 tbe rjlgbt
of September 16 tbe garrlsno repelled
two attacks on the redoubt protect
ing tbe water works.
The text of General Stoessel's dis
patch Is as follows:
TOUT ARTHUR. -The enemy
continues dally to bombard tbe forts
and batteries Inside tbe fortress,
but still without showing any great
activity.
"The wounded are recovering and
eagerly resume their places in the
ranks. They are heroes. The troops
are In excellent spirits.
SHANGHAI.-Tbe general attack
on Port Arthur, which has hrgun
and In which the Japanese fleet is
c operating, has been resumed. The
Janaoese tieet captured two Im
portant ports on either side of Sue
Iszeylng, north of Port Arthur.
C1IK FOO.-Autliotltatlve Infor
mation has been received here of a
general attack upon Port Arthur by
the Japanese forces which begun he
fore daybreak and continued until
dark. All indications point to an
effort to capture certain of the north
east main forts.
This is the attack for which Jap
anese have been preparing for the
past nineteen days, with slight hope
of success. As forecasted In these
dispatches the Japanese attack on
l'ort Arthur Is directed against the
northeast fort. The main ob)ct Is
to capture tho formications on
Kikwan mounlaln. Ribbing; moun
tain and tiie Intermediate forts.
The foregoing comes from a Rus
sian of standi eg whose previous Infor
mation has been correct. He adds
that the attack -at the end of Aug
ust, which was reported as two
separate assaults, really constituted
a ten days' b.itt'e, the lighting be
ing the heaviest during the first
three days and the last lour days of
that period. Although the Japanese
retired August 31 along tbe greater
part of their line they remained in
four supplementary forts on tbe
northeast front, which they had
captured from the Russians. These
include two forts fifty yards from
Rlehlung mountain and two others
at a somewhat greater distance.
Since August 31 the Japanese have
bombarded very slightly, while the
Russians have been throwing ap
proximately a thousand shells dally,
chiefly against the four Japanese
positions tuenlloutd. .Small sorties,
as referred to by the Nov! Krai of
Port Arthur In the efforts to recap
ture tbe positions have been of al
most nightly occurrence and have
been uolfornially unsuccessful.

Citizens of Ewlng have asked that

CnE FOO. Accordl ngtoLleutea
ant Prince Radzlvll of tbe Russia
army, who reached bere from Port
Artbur bearing dispatches from
Lieutenant General Steossel, the
commander-in-chief of the forces of
the Russian strongbold, to General
Kuropatkln, the temper of the bel
ligerents at Port Arthur has reached
absolutely merciless stage.
Prince Radzvll served wltb the
British Jn the Boer war, and he says
that until be became aware of the
state of affairs at Port Arthur ba
had no idea that war could be se
horrible.
1 1 was set forth in these dispatches
somo weeks ago tbat suspicions
were entertained by both belllgor
ent9 that the other was misusing tbe
Red Cioss flig. These suspicions
have been Increased by the commis
sion of various acts by the soldiers
of both faroilles until now even flags
of truce or surrender are not re
spected oy either side.
Tne prince declares that tbe men
of both armies are absolutely veno
mous io their antagonism. Lieu
tenant General Stoessel has addressed
his garrison, that the present mood
of tb" Japane-e indicates clearly the
necessity of leslstir.g tbem
to the last drop of Russian bl 01.
because If the Japanese sildieis en
tered the fortress, it undoubtedly
would be impossible for their officers
to control them and prevent a mas
sacre. For this icason Lieutenant
General Stoessel Is making no ob
jection to civilians leaving Port
Attnur. Wheo the three hundred
women who are in Port Arthur en
gaged In hospital work were advised
to leave, tbey replied tbat they
would rather face the possibility of
massacre than desert tbeir posts.
Iq coosequence of tbe fact that
flags of truce are Ignored numbers
of Japanese dead who have been
lying 00 tbe slop's of tbe bills of the
northeast deafness for weeks past
are still unburied, and tbe stench In
Port Arthur from decomposing
bodies when the wind Is in tbe right
direction is almost unendurable. Tbe
Russian soldiers who are in some
cases posted only fifty paces from
heaps of decaying dead, have con
stantly to wear over their noses
handkerchiefs soaked in camphor, ut
otherwise they would be unable to
remain at their posts.
Not the Train Robbers.
WIN HELD, la. ATter a night
iu the sweatbox Harry Anderson
and James King, the suspected train
bandits, caught by a posse at Brigh
ton, are believed to have had do
connection with the Rock Island
robbery. Tbey have been identified,
however, as the men seen In VVIn
fleld shortly after the the holdup
answering the description ol En
glneer Dunhtrn the .oen who forced
bim to cut his engine loose from
the train. Dunham has been sent
for for the the purpose of Identifi
cation. The two suspects have been
eogagi d In the sale of spectacles In
the vicinity of the holdup. It Is
oolleved they are not members of
the gang discovered by a farmer in
a strawstack near here.
Bloodhounds were taken to the
place where the live men were seen
and started a the trail.
Bloodhounds have traced supposed
Rock Island bandits in a zig-zag
course two and one-half miles from

seen sleeping to a point south of

ST. PETERSBURG. General Ku
topalkln reports tbat reconnaissances
have established tbe fact Ibat tbe
Japanese are massing near YeLlai
and Bensi itputze. Banda of Japan
ese are also moving la the Llao river
valley.
News from tbe frentls exceedingly
ai eagre and tbe present lull in tbe
operations in Manchuria Is expected
to continue for several weeks. Iver
since General Kuropatkin's retreat
definitely accomplished tba best IB
formed military circles were convin
ced tbat Field Marshal Oyama could
not Immediately lenew bis aggres
sive tactics. Ail tbe information
since received regarding tbe condi
tion of tbe Japanese armies bas
strengthened tbe conviction tbat
Oyama will require a considerable
time to organise a Dew advance,
and it is dow believed tbat he prob
ably will wait reinforcements of
men and guns to make good bis
los.es at Liao Yang. These, it Is
iepo'ted, will be ready to leave
Japan at tbe end of tbe month.
Moreover, It would create no sur
prise bere It a Japan diversion is
attempted in tbe direction of Vlad
ivostok to prepare tbe way for a
renewal of aggressive operations
against Mukden. Id tbe meantime
Kuropatkln is slso obtaining rein
forcements. A laige number of
guus and some Independent troops
sre on their way to the front and
the Hrst detachment of the Odessa
corps Is expected to be on its way
east ly train soon.
There Is considerable anystery
about Kuropatkin's plans. Although
all the information obtainable In
dicates thai tho bulk of his army is
still around Mukden and the official
Intimations are that Kurnpatkin
does not contemplate retiring further
at present, there is considerable
skepticism on these points. About
all that is definitely known is that a
considerable number of his troops
have already gone north; that the
heights near the Liao river at 'lie
pass have oceo fortified; that tbe
pass bas been secured and that
cavalry is scouting wide on the Rus
sian flanks to signal tbe first indi
cation of a new turning movement
on tbe part of tbe Japansse. Only
outpost skirmishes of little impor
tance have been reported.
Tbe Japanese are not expected to
redouble their efforts before Port
Arthur, hence the news received Is
not encouraging. Iu spite of tbe
success wbicii bilherto bas attended
the defense, tbe Russian lines are
being drawn closer, tbe garrison Is
undergoing severe privations, and
Its resisting power Is weakening un
der the strain. A final sortie of the
Russian squadron at Port Artbur
may be expected at any time. When
the command of tbe squadron was
turned oyer to Rear Admlial Wiren
be received strict instructions that
If the fortress falls not one of the
Russian ships must fall into tbe
bands of the Japanese.
A telegram from Harbin says tbe
following nport has been received
from Port Arthur:
"Our garrison is In good spirits
and there is no prospect of provisions
railing. Port Arthur is prepared
to make a long, obstinate defense.
The Japanese are strongly fortifying
their positions near Kin Cbou isth
mus, and are entrenching before
J'oit Arthur."
The Russian military critics, an
alyzing General Kuropatkin's ex
tended report of the tattle of Liao
Y'ang, seeem to unite In consider
ing that Field Marshal Oyama's pur
nose having failed, the honors be
long rather to Ku opatkln than to
the Japinese commander-in-chief.
The Novoe Vrfmya draws a parallel
between Llao Yang and Borodino,
where General KutusoffV abandon
nieit of Moscow to Napoleon was
followed by tbe disaster ous retreat
