HOW TALIEN FELL.
There Was no Need for the Co-opera-
tiou of the Fleet.

YoKoHoMA, Nov. 29-On the 9Th. at 6
A. M. the japanese squadrons made
for Talienwan. The main squadron headed
the fleet. 1t cOnsisl ed of the Hashidate
Che fagship). Chlyoda. Itsukushima,
Nsniwa and Matsushima. 1t was fol-
lowed by the first flying squadron, consist
ing OF the YoshiDo, Takachiho and
Akitsushims. after which came the second
flying squadron comprising the Fuse,
Katsuragl. Kongo and Takoa, and the
fourth flying squadron composed OF the
Tsukushi, Akaki. Maya, Oshma and
Chokai. All the ships which took place in
the memorable sea-battle were present ex-
capt the Hiyei and, Of course. the Saikyo.
The intention was to reduce the fallen
forts from the sea. The Second army,
which had landed near the mouth of the
Peiiew-ho. was to have arrived near Kin
chow on the 9th and commence the
attack or the town on the morning
OF the 9th. As Kinchow is not
more than 8 ri OK miles) from Talien-
wan, the squadron wGs to assist the army
from the sea. On the same day at :30P. NJ,
the squadron arrived at the entrance to
Talienwan. The British man -of-war
Severn was anchored there. She sign aled
if she should salute the Japanese flag
ship, but the Japanese declined. The
Severn no doubt took this precaution on
account of the rumors about the salute
when the Japanese squadron was about
to attack Wei-hai-wei. AS the squadron
entered the bay sounds as of distant peals
of thunder were heard; they were doubt

Klncbow. The men on board all became
high-spirited on hearing these welcome
roars. AS torpedoes had been laid in the
bay the squadron could not carelessly
enter 1t. The Boshang-ta0 forts, the prin-
cipal defsnses of Talienwan, we're still
outside the gun range. and therefore it
was necessary to destroy the torpedo
mines before approaching any closer. The
launches of six men-of-war were let down
and sent to destroy the torpedoes, and the
fourth fyipg squadron followed them TO
cover them from the enemy's fire. In the
meanwhile the night fell, and the rest of
the feet went far out into the sea.
Throughout the afternoon the sounds of
guns were heard.
Early next morning (7th) the squadron
came TO the mouth of TalienwaD. At
about A. Nj. the reports Of cannon on
land became louder and louder. The
Tsuknshi, AkaRi and Choka went right
into the bay, while the Oshima and Maya
entered the neighboring bay. The Tsuku-
shi fired twenty-six en-. she'll on the
signai-tower at the entrance to the bay.

MOVEMENTS IN MANCHURIA.
Yamagata Waiting for the Fall of
Port Arthur.

YOKOHAMA, Nov. 29.-The movements
of the army in Manchuria indicate that
General Yamagata has been under instruc-
tions to await the fall of Port Arthur be-
fore taking decisive course Of action.
The headquarters have not been moved
frcm Kiu-Lin since the occupation of that
town month ago. . but two important
columns have been sent out, one under
Major-General Oseko, along the shore
roads, the other under Major-General
Tatsumi, over the mountain courses in the
direction of MouEden. Detachments from
these columns have penetrated all the
Businesses between Kin-Lin and the city
of Lao-Yung, which stands on the high
way from New-Chwang to Moukden.
Scores of enrenched positions have been
passed, many of them not only of great
natural strength, bu; fortified with every
appliance of modern engineering skill and
abundantly provided with artillery and
ammunition.
lu no single instance has an earnest at
tempt been made to stay the progress of
the Japanese. In the mountainous regions
of Molten formidable line Of fortifica-
tions was laid out, through which no
enemy could have made his way without
desperate struggle, provided decent
show Of resistance had been made. All the
advantages were on the side of the Chi
nese. but no disposition to benefit by them
was apparent.
Scouting parties from Major-General
Oseko's division have advanced along the
coast of the Yellow Sea as far as the
point where General Oyama's second army
debarked, on the Lian-ting peninsula, so
that union between the two principal
bodies of troops can be effected whenever
desired. Moreover, as Lao Yung is in pos
session of Major-General Tatsumi's
advance guard, descent upon New
Chwang may be made at any moment in
case it is proposed TO add General
Yamagata's force to that of the conqueror
of Port Arthur. 1t now seems probable
that the operations of the first army have.

Arthur was Occupied by the japanese in
esta bl1shing an nffice of civil admiuistra-
tion in the conquered city, with a view to
restoring order among the populace. The
excesses of the Chinese soldiers had driven
the inhabitants to despair, and when it
was found that the invaders we're truly
messengers of peace and good will to all
who held aloof from the strife the joy on
every side was unrestrained. The new
local Government was placed under con-
troll of the former Japanese Consul at
Tientsin, and its rules of action were
publicly proclaimed. Notice was given
that no pillage would he praciiced; that
just payment would be rendered for all
goods required; that the rights of the
natives would be thoroughly respected.
and their customs adhered to as exactly as
possible. Such are the principles observed
by Japan in dealing with a nation which
ackno Wedges no regulations of war; {;
which sanctions the murder and mutila-
tion of prisoners; makes no provision for
the treatment of an enemy's wounded,
and exerts no effort to restrain its troops
from rapne and incendiarism. even within
its own territories.
1t may also be mentioned that attached

at all points upon which delicate ques-
tions may hereafter turn. Nothing is left
to chance and no advantage is likely to be
lost for want OF careful deliDeration and
judicous forethought
The suffering to which the people of
Chow had been reduced by the ruth
less taskmasters of their own race moved
the Japanese to pity. Many of the poorer
citizens were literally at the verge of star
