to bombard the main position (it Llandlan
slan. The Russian losses altogether were
l,4BO killed or wounded.
A long official telegram has boon received
at the War office, but It docs nut give a
hint of whnt In transpiring today. It Is
more tlian probable, however, that the Jap
anese have rimumcil their attempt to roach
Llao Yang. The silence on this point of the
special dispatches lllej at Liao Yang this
morning ruther confirm this view.
The hottest fighting occurred In the v.'il
ley of the Llan, a small tributary ofthe
Taltse, around Tacgow, a place between
Anplng and Llondlaiislun. Ueneral Kuro
kl's first ulm apparently was to separate
the two principal Russian positions, as fore
casted In these dispatches August 2ti. The
Russians In the- valley of thu I. Ian lost
1,41 men. General Kurokr"army ndvanoed
. In three strong columns, one northward
along the valley of Sindahlu, a tributary of
the Tultse, as far us Lluodinta, whence a
portion of these forces marched westward
to Mlao pass, threatening Anshanshan, the
.other portion pushing up the stream to
Tunslnpu, four miles southwest of Llan
dlunslan, where It waa stopped by General
Konropatkln's Cossacks.
The second column marched along the
high road and occupied Krdahe, whence
the Japanese batteries shelled Llandlanslan,
a couple of miles northwest, until the tire
of the Kusslan guns silenced them. Sev-
' . Japanese batterlej were completely
tled and were abandoned by their
jTS.
jrtie fighting at Tsegow was of the most
desperate description. The Japanese had
the advuntuge of the mountainous country,
advancing along a ridge extending from
Tantslaputzy to Slnlnlndsy. The latter
place Is situated on the high road, ten
miles southeast of Lluo Yang. Possession
of this point would render Llandlanslan
and Anplng untenable. It Is nof Improb
able that General Ktirokl will therefore
repeat his attack In this direction.
Tho Japanese, advance was characterized
by the greatest stubbornness and arouses
the belief Irt military circles that General
Kurokl hns1 received considerable reinforce
ments or (General Kouropntkln has sent the
greaterportion of his nriny north, leaving
only acouple of corps at Llao Yang.
TkA n V. n . . . . .. T

as It would expose the attackers to being
cut off by General Kquropntkln's main
army from the north.
no Not Think Japs Enter Port.
8:48 p. m The rumor that the Japanese
had effected an entrance Into Tort Arthur
does not obtain credence at the Wnr office,
although It Is admitted thnt no news hnd
been received from General Stoessel since
August 22. though possibly a telegram
reached the emperor Just before he started
for the Don this afternoon. It Is pointed
out that If tho rumor Is true It would sig
nify the rapture of the fortress, which
trould be unable to hold out against the
s jperlor numbers of the besiegers If any
portion of the permanent defenses Is lost.
Towards the southeast the battls was
especially severe. Bayonets were used
and there the Russians lost 1.C00 men.
A dispatch from General Kouropatkln to
Emperor Nicholas, dated August 2tl, and
referring to the fighting of August T5, says
tho Japanese took the ofTenslvo only
gainst the troops on the Russian left. The
strength of the Japanese was estimated
at two divisions of infantry with numerous
guns. The Russian losses in killed or
wounded were about 100. The dispatch con
cludes: "At dawn August 2(1 the Japanese as
sumed the offensive along the entire front
Of our army.
Kurokl Joins Oku,
stAO YANG, Aug. 27. General Kurokl
fias Joined forces with General Oku In an
attempt to cut the Russian line between
Anshanshan and Llandlanslan.
The battle of August 25 raged along the
eastern front. A strong Japanese force at
tacked the Russian positions at Mlao puss
eleven milea ea3t of Anshanshan, and ut
Bnndiatzl and Tfegow, twelve miles south
east. Nine batteries of six guns each bom
barded the Rusriun outpoats. At thee
points the combat repeatedly developed
Into hand-to-hand fighting.. The Ru.slans
itubbornly held the outpesta tho whole day,
falling back on their main position at night.
Tho chief artillery engagement was In front
of Llandlanslan. the Japanese concentrating
the fire of ten butteries and simultaneously
advancing on Torlntspu, four miles south
west of Llamllansian, but they were ar
rested by Cossacks, who were afterward
relnforcod by Infantry and artillery.

i The Japsnese resumed U e bombardment
early August 28, devoting most of their at
tention to Llandlanslan. The Russian field
guns were very effective. They dismantled
tblrty-two Japanese guns, mostly mountain
pieces. The casualties have not been ascer
tained. ' Toklo lias Little Sews.
TOKJ.O, Aug. 27.-9 p. m It Is reported
here that General Oku commenced the at
tack upon the Russians at Anshanshan
yesteiday at the same lime that General
Kurokl commenced to attack them at
Anplng.
Anshanshan Is midway between Hal
Cheng and Llao Yang, and Anplng Is thir
teen miles southeast of Llao Yang.
No tidings of a definite character from
Port Arthur or Llao Yang have reached
the public today.
It Is understood that a lull followed the
desperate fighting of the earlier half of
the week nt Part Arthur. The lull was
fo.- the purpose of allowing the tired men
to rest, arranging certain things In the
plan of attack and for completing prepara
tions for pressing the attack home.
The Japanese guns continue to shell the
fortress, but the majority of the forces are
not engaged. Port Arthur Is proving
harder to reduce and capture than the gen
eral public of Japan expected. The pub
lic which has been confidently awaiting
the fall of ths fortress dally for the last
month, Is disappointed at the delay. Much
regret Is expressed at the heavy losses,
but the nation Is unwavering In Its grim
determination to hammer and harrass Port
Arthur until It falls, and Is prepared to
pay the cost, however heavy It may be.
' Buttle Mar De Derisive.
The belief Is growing here that a great
and decisive battle will be fought at Llao
Yang. General Kouroratkln, who had an
opportunity to abandon Llao Yang and to
remove the bulk of his stores and the ma
jority of his army from that place, evi
dently has chosen to remain and give bat
tle. He has concentrated his forces and
entrenched them carefully. The country
is drying up speedily after the torrential
rains, and so soon as It Is possible to re
sume operations the Japanese may be
counted upon to act vigorously and aggres
sively wherever the conditions permit.
Confidence is felt here by the Japanese
that the commander-in-chief In the field,
Marshal Oyama, with his splendid united
armies, will outgeneral General Kouropat
kln and force him to give battle on at
least two of his fronts, nnd eventually suc
ceed In defeating him decisively.
Juns Tuke Another Fort.
CHE FUO, Aug. 27. Noon The latest re
ports received from Port Arthur are to the
effect that the Japanese, In the attack
during the night of August 22, captured
Poyodo, a fort midway between Takushan
und the eastern defenses and reduced an
other fort immediately east of thu rail
way. Poyodo mounted only two small
guns when the Russians were in possession
of it. The assault was preceded by heavy
artillery fire from Takushan, where tho
Japanese have big naval guns. The Rus
sians ,lost considerably before they were
compelled to retire. The fort was not
occupied by the Japanese, as It is behind a
moat, which the Japanese in no instance
have been able to cross.
Recent arrivals here who were In Port
Arthur as lato as AuguBt 24 believe that
the Russian resistance will prove success
ful for some time yet.
They explain that the Japanese are un
able to occupy Etseshan fort. The Jap
anese feinted constantly In attempting to
do so, and In tho meanwhile, by tremend
ous labor, raised the summit of a smaller
hill behind It to the level of Etseshan hill
by means of sandbags, and ther they
mounted guns which assisted materially
in the reduction of the fort east of the
railway. This fort is the northernmost
of the eastern defenses, and without its
positions reduced or occupied renders the
Japanese position In the vicinity of the
railroad threatening to the Russian hopes.
It '.s obvious that the Japanese expect to
enter Port Arthur from the north.
Confirmation has been obtained of the
announcement made in these dispatches
August 18 to the effect that the Japanese
drove the Russians from their positions at
Louisa bay nnd Pigeon bay, the Japanese
vanguard, numbering W0 to 800 men, pene
trating Into the fort situated on the highest
hill of the Llaotl mountain, the southern
most mountain of the Kwang-Tung penin
sula, incidentally capturing an Incompleted
battery on the west shore of the Llaotl
promontory and then retired. The Japa
nese fleet during the attack made a demon
stration against the main Llaotl fort.
It Is also confirmed that the Japanese
silenced a small fort near Golden hill.
The J.iranese line on the west Is ap
proximately, according to the advices re
ceived here, three nnd a hnlf miles from
the European, or new town, where there
has been no conflagration, although nu
merous Individual fires have occurred.
When the last arrivals left Port Arthur
there was little firing. The strength of
the garrison Is now estimated to be 1&.0O0
efficient men.
On August 23 the Russians arrested four
Japanese spks within the fortress and shot
them. No Chinese, except outbound ser
vants, are allowed In the European town,
the Russians being afraid of spies.
6ince August 21 the Russian ships have
not been firing shells. On August 22 a
Japanese shell fell In the dockyard, causing
some damage.
Only the Chinese shops of Port Arthur
j are doing business. The lack of vegetables
is severely felt.
Rnaslana to Send Xevr Arm.
BERLIN, Aug. S7.-A dispatch to the
Tageblatt from St. Petersburg says the
Russian government if determined to as
semble a second great inrmy in Manchur.a,
consisting of thrje or four corps, under the
command of General Raron Kaulbars or
General Soukhomllnoff. Its headquarters
will be at Mukden. The object of this step
Is to meet the situation that will arise
should Port Arthur fall, thus releasing the
besieging army for operations northward.
The Tageb'af. correspondent names the
various commands out of which the new
army will be formed and says he beileves
that more rapid transportation of troops
will be possible owing to approaching com
pletion of the raiiioad around Lake Baikal.
Ulana linn .o Instructions.
SAIGON, French Indo-Chlna, Aug. 27.
The Russian cruiser Dluna, which anlved
hervAugust 20 with a shell hole below Its
water line, received In the naval battle off
Port Arthur August 10, has not received
Instructions from the government at St.
Petersburg to disarm or repair Its damages,
which are slight. Another Japanese shell
killed an officer of the Diana and three men
and wounded twenty-three others. The
cruiser tried to reach Shanghai, but encoun
tered some Japanese torpe'do boats. The
latter discharged nine torpedoes without
effect at the Diana.
The officers of the cruiser declare that
General Ftoessel will never surrender Port
Arthur. When the Diana left the harbor
General 8toefscl had 40,000 men.
Hn.ialnn Anxious to Fight.
ML'KDEN, Aug (Undated.) The Associ
ated Press correspondent here made the
rounds of the Russian positions in front
of Llao Yang Just before the Japanese
began their advance. The Russians, the
correspondent says, have a semi-circle of
splendid positions from Anshanshan to
Mukden. Fresh troops and guns are ar
riving continuously and the Russian force
is stronger than it has been at any pre
vious time since the commencement of the
war. Tho arrival of fresh European troop3
has increased the enthusiasm of the men
who are tired of retreating. The road and
the railway between Liao Yang and Muk
den are crowded with transports of all
sorts.
It Is said that Chinese regular troops
assisted the bandits In the fight which
occurred north of Mukden August 23.
It is rumrrod that Marqulj Oyama, commander-in-chief
of the Japanese forces In
Manchuria arrived at Halcheng August 23.
JA PAItr SK.MIS 1SOTE TO T1IK POWERS
Russian Warships at HlianKhat Must
Be Disarmed Forthwith.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-Japan has ad
dressed a note to the powers Informing
them that unless Russia forthwith dis
arms Its warships In Shanghai, Japan will
be forced to take whatever steps It deems
necessary to protect Its Interests. Mr.
Takahlra, the Japanese minister, called at
the State department today and left with
Mr. Adee, the acting secretary of state,
the communication of the Toklo govern
ment. To a correspondent of the Associated
Press Mr. Takahlra said tonight:
"While Japan sincerely hopes that the
reported Intention of Russia to disarm tho
Arkold and Grosevol at- Shanghai will
promptly be executed, my government has
felt that It was advisable to Inform the
powers what must necessarily be its at
titude in the event that the disarmament
of the Russian ships Is delayed. The con
ditions at Shanghai are peculiar because
of the International Interests there and
my government Is desirous of giving these
Interests every consideration."
In State department circles the opinion
la expressed that the Russian ships will
soon be. disarmed and both at the State
and Navy departments Information has
been, received that the Incident Is regarded
In Shanghai as practically closed. It was
suggested tonight that the effect of the
Japanese note probably would be to
strengthen the determination of the Chi
nese officials to maintain the neutrality of
the Peking government, not only at Shang
hai, but at other points where an attempt
.nay be made to violate it.
WILL BROOK SO MEDIATION
Caar Is Determined toFlwht Despite
Possible Reverses and Losses.
LONDON, Aug. 27. The Associated Press
learns In connection with the revival of
the rumors of mediation that Emperor
Nicholas only recently announced in the
most positive terms that he would permit
peace negotiations should Port Arthur fall
and General Kouropatkln be driven back
to Harbin. This fact, well undersf-.o'. In
official circles, ha prevented the British
government from taking any steps in the
direction of mediation. It Is known here
that Germany understands this attitude
as well as Great Britain and other powers.
Therefore the reports from P-ls that Em
peror William Is prepared to suggest peace
Is dismissed as'groundless, for the present
at least. If General Kouropatkln, how
ever, should win a decisive victory at Liao
Yank, which in a measure would rjstott
Russian prestige, it is believed here tint
the restoration of peace would undoubtedly
be materially facilitated.
Beyond the acknowledgement of the re
ceipt of orders to search for the Russian
volunteer fleet steamers Smolensk and St.
Petersburg the admiralty here has not
heard from Rear Admiral Durnford, in
command of the Cape of Good Hopo sta
tion. The admiralty denies the statement
published here that Admiral Durnford has
been ordered to shadow the Smolensk nnd
St. Petersburg and see that they do not
violate the Instructions of their govern
ment. It Is pointed out that such an act
would show suspicion of the good faith of
Rusi-la, which Great Britain does not care
to doubt after the delivery of the orders
the British cruisers which are searching
for the volunteer fleet stfamera, will re
turn to port and cable to London the fact
that they have executed their commission.
