Captain Halvorseo says that the Vladivostok system of lortlricati ;ns tegins maoy mil's outside the city proper and grows tUonger as tbe city Is approached. Mjlps laden with food, cannon, ammuDpicn and all sorts of mili tary kupplles frequently arrive at Vladivostok, according to Captain Haltorsen, who says that f ve ships engaged in unloading tbelr cargo s were in port when the fungsu sailed. Tbe captain Is unable to estimate the strength of the garrison, but he says that everybody at Vladivostok seems tc be either an officer or an 'Tdlnary soldier. Ti e Eur pf an residents of Yladi v stok show their confidence In the security of the city by evidencing an unwillingness to leave it. If tbe Japanese make an attempt to capture Vladivostok, it Is the be lief of Ciptalo Halvorsen that they will find It to be a second Port Ar thur. Captain Halvorsen says be he leves that submarine boa's have arrived at Vladivostok, but adds that I e Is r ot, positive In this belter r r the reason that at present the Kus sian naval si-crets are closely guarded. Tbe barboi of Vladivostok he says, has been mined for a distance of some seven miles. In four miles of this area contact mines have been I il l, while iti the remaining three miles electric mines have been planted. Certain of a Plot. ST. PET Efts HUU' J.

ST. PETERSBURG. Tbete Is a scuriejy veiled feeling or relief t.'iroi:ghout St. Peteisburg that tbe day has passed without bringing nws of the fall of Port Arthur. There bad been a considerable fi ar that tbe Japaoese might push home the final attack It Is now felt that there mav come another period of riSvite. The authorities stale tl at they are wphout dir ct news f: on. I'ort Arthur and everyone Is depend ing up in foreign sources for tidings of the devoid g'irison. Nothing of imporlai co has develop ed in the region of Muaden. CUE FOO. Port Artt ur Is do m- ed. The correspi n ler:t of the Associated press has received Inf-ir-niation, the reliability of which Is beyond quvtlian, that the Japanese now occupy o-ju s which place the east side tt town at their mercy. lhe last assault has gained for them pillions which insure their ahillty to enter the main east forts whenevei they are teady. The Japanese calculate that If the Russians do not surrender now they will lie capable of prolonging the fighting br making their final s and at Liioti promontory and Tiger's Tall for a month longer, with the mere hore of coullnulng tbe strug gle. Long before the second Pacific squadron arrives In the Pacliic the Japanese flag it Is now believed, will wave over the wrecked citadel. This will ei.t Viceroy AiexietT.s d'eani of an unconquerable city. The Japanese have not occupied the main forts and highest points of the ia-t bills, bur. they oecuny In over helming numbers positions' wii ch ill enwble them to drive the Rus tans back whenever Ihey desire. When the Japanese ocru.iv the east port rldiie they will completely dominate thi other Russian forts wltn their artillery. Japanese arriving from Dalny re port that the Japmsee have captured Rlhlung mountain and Suugshu mountain, which IP'S between the ralroad and lilhlung mountain. They also report th 't the Japa-i se hive captured East Keekwan moun tain. Conservative Japanese, realiz ing the Int. nse desire of the Japan ese for good news on the emnen r's birthday receive the above reports with reserve. Regarding the captme of Kiolung and Sunishu mountains tbe report Is not consld"red Imoroh abl", but Japanese say that It Is not Intended to occupy P -st Iv ekwan mountain. In August me Japanese succeeded In entering East Ke kwan' fort, as ws related In these dis ;rc "s t that time, hut, ir der the c ce ratd hre of the other forts tl J ore compelled to retire. panese ofllce'S here say that It S Imposnlhle to boll East Keekwan, ai d that therefore an attempt on I bat position Is presumah1 only a fi lnt. When the Japanese occupied the Rus lin treehcs on Hh'lu'.g m- tin ain it Is said that lhe R issuins turn d a current of water Into the trenches hut that th" JapHnesp held f st.
