CONTINUOUS

eeIIigerents Are Unable to Bury Their
Dead-Russians Are contesting the
Ground Inch by Inch and Even the
Boys Are Fighting In the Ranks
Nearly All In.
London, Aug 26.--The correspondent
of the London Daily Telegraph reports
a resumption of the general Japanese
attack upon Port Arthur, the predicted
final onslaught being evidently in pro-
gress. The correspondent says: 1.-THE
attack is being pressed on all sides
simultaneously.
'The Russians are fighting inch by
inch.
"The fignting Is continuous and the
belligerents are unable to bury their
dead, hence the stencil from the decom.
posing bodies is making life in the
town unbearable."
The Russians are making desperate
efforts to stall off the attack. Reports
from Che Foo state that boys ara
fighting in the Russian ranks.
Golden Hill, White Marble mountain
and Lao III mountain Notifications are
the only main forts about the town
securely held by the Russians.
Others are occupied by them but
they are subjected to an artillery fro
which renders their tenure uncertain.
Fort No. s, which has refquently
been reported taken by the japanese
and re-taken by the Russians, is again
said to be in the hands of the Japan
ese.
The new European section Of Port
Arthur is reported to be in flames. As
the houses are built Of mud and brick
1t is probable that the fire is not gen.
eral.
According to trustworthy information
the Japanese are using 300 heavy cal
ibre guns taken from the defences OF
Kobe Nagasaki and Yokohama, while
the Russians, besides heavy guns, havs
constantly at work 100 light and Quicl
firers to the westward. ..

BECAUSE OF THE KID
The Gar Relaxed His
Orders

London, Aug 26.-The Standards st.
Petersburg correspondent has learned
from what he considers good authority
that Immediately after the christening
Of the Russian heir, the car command
ed the ministry of marine to issue or
ders to the cruisers of the volunteer
fleet to cease the interception of neu-
trail vessels and the search of their
holds for contraband.
The cessation of the recent action
of the volunteer fleet was foreshadow-
ed in yesterdays dispatches and it was
apparent that as soon as the vessels
could be reached, orders to that effect
would be given.
Consequent upon the assurance given
to Great Britain that neutral vessels
would not again be interfered with,
Great Britain offered to convey these
orders to the volunteer feet and the
offer being accepted, two British
cruisers were sent on this mission.

HEARST SUFFERED AN
OVERWHELMING
DEFEAT
In Massachusetts District
Conventions
6 DELEGATES OUT OF %

Boston, Mass, April 26.-William
Randolph Hearst was overwhelmingly
defeated this afternoon and tonight,
when the Democratic congressional
district conventions were held
throughout the state to elect twenty
eight delegates to the National con-
vention at st. Louis. OF this num-
ber, Mr.. Hearst has pledged to him
six, while 21 of the remaining num-
ber are for former Secretary Of State
Richard Olney and one delegate, elect
ed in the first district at Pittsfiela
is in doubt.
The Hearst supporters expected
nothing in Boston and Olney carried
each Of the four districts by large ma
jorities. Only in the third district at
Worcester, the sixth at Salem and the
seventh at Lynn did Hearst win, and
these three elected two delgates each,
pledged to his candidacy.
The defeat of George Fred Will
liams, the Hearst leader in this state
in his district-the twelfth, was COM
plete.
Ten Of the fourteen conventions
were held this afternoon while the re-
naming four added their votes for
Olney tonight.
