Japanese Accused of Atrocities.

New York, Dec. ia cable to the
World from Yokohama says the Japan
ese troops entered Port Arthur Novem-

butchered in their houses, and their
bodies unspeakably mutilated. There
was an unrestrained reign of murder,
which continued three days. The whole
town was plundered, with appalling
atrocities. 1t was the first stain upon
Japanese civilization. The japanese, in
this instance, relapsed into barbarisn.
All pretenses of circumstances that justi-

lied world will be Mortified by the de-
tails. Foreign correspondents Mortified
by the spectacle left the army in body.
