ASSASSIN GETS AWAY
THE SLAYER OF MINISTER Won
PLEHvE is RESCUED BY A Il
CLEVER RusE.

London, Sept. 5.-A special dis
patch from st. Petersburg says that
by a daringly conceived coup on the
part OF his friends, S%assoneff, the muir
derer of'M. Won Plehve, succeeded in
escaping from prison.
Early Saturday morning two men,
apparently officers of high rank, ac-
companied by an army surgeon and
two gendarmes, presented themselves
at the prison with a note alleged to be
from Minister of Justice Muravieff.
The forged note sanctioned the re-
moval of Sassoneff. who assassinated
Minister Of the Interior Won Plehve
with an Internal machine a few weeks
ago.
The prison officials were completely
taken In and handed over the assassin,
who was driven away in the most de-
liberate n Nothing has been
heard since either of the assassin or
the bogus officers. The letter present
ed at the prison was a clever forgery,
written upon official paper of the min
tstry of justice.

JAPS PERsIsTENTLY POUNDING
AWAY At THE DEFENsEs OF
PORT ARTHUR.
NO REST FOR THE RUSSIANS
EACH INFANTRY ASSAULT is FOL
LOWED BY A FIERCE FIRE
FROM ARTILLERY.

Chefoo, Sept. 5.-The second general
assault on Port Arthur assumed
crushing proportions Aug. ~ and con-
tinued unabated until the morning Of
Aug. 81, when the Japanese retired
everywhere except from Palichuang,
which they have apparently firmly Sc
cured. This information comes from
q Chinese messenger sent to Port Ar
thur by the Associated Press, and it
confirms previous fragmentary adj
vices. The messenger adds that IT,
shan was r~eattacked Aug. 80 with
great fury, but the Japanese were I'M
able to secure a position. Another
Chinese who departed from Port Ar
thur Sept. 2 says that a fierce assault
was made on the left flank at 3 o'clock
that morning. The assault lasted until
6 a. m., when the Japanese retired.
The bombardment then recommencel,
the Japanese fired chiefly from Sui
chlying and Palichuang, the Russians
from Antszshan.
The Japanese losses, according to
the Russian estimate, were 5000 dur
ing the four days from Aug. q to Aug.
81. The Russian losses are placed at
5000. During the assault shells from
the field guns and rifle bullets fell in
the city. The b%attleships in the har-
Dor also participated in the firing.
A reliable authority in touch with
events at Port Arthur declares that a
week ago the garrison numbered ap-
proximately $4,000. Accepting the
Chinese report of the recent losses, the
efficient men now number 10000. The
past weeks advices confirm previous
deductions that the Japanese are
bending their fiercest energy to secure
an ingress along the railroad. The
Japanese now expect two months or
possibly more or fighting before the
fortress will be taken. They give the
garrison no rest. Assaults no sooner
cease than the artillery increases it's
thunder. The garrison is said to be
greatly worn and weary, but determin-
ed to continue resistance, always hop
ing that General Kuropatkin will soon
gain sufficient strength to come to
their relief.

S%TAKELBERG ESCAPES
EluDES JAPANESE ARMIES AND
JOINS kuRoPATkiN At His
NEW POSITION.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 6.-General
Kuroputkin, in q report dated Satur-
day, Sept. 3, Z p. m, says that the
greater part Of his army, including
General Stakelberg's force, which sue
ceeded in rejoining the main force. is
now south OF the Yentai mines, about
ten miles from Liaoyang.
The troops which were left at Lao
yang and the surrounding fortifca-
tions to cover the retreat crossed the
Taitse river Saturday and occupied
the right bank of3the river.
The report says that after the de-
cisive engagement between the armies
Of Generals Kuropatkin and Kuroki,
large numbers Of Japanese, perfectly
concealed in the Chinese corn and
grass, stealthily crept upon the re-
treating Russians and inflicted heavy
losses.
These same tactics had previously
been adopted with terrible resultA
against General Orloff's mixed detach-
ment, which was assailed in the midst
of the grass with q completely unex-
pected fire. A panic ensued. and n
regiment alone lost 1900 men. half
OF its total strength.
kuropatkin's message threw a more
hopeful light On the position of the
Russian army, and the authorities
gave signs of relief.
There is no attempt. however. to
conceal the gravity of the situation,
In view of the absence of news re-
garding what is happening Sunday.
It is not clear from the latest tele-
gram whether the Russians are con-
tinuing their retreat or if they have
been compelled to face their foe.
The wal Office say that the Russian
retreat from Liaoyang did not involve
the loss of guns, and that the abandon
ed stores at Liaoyang were set on fire
before the Russians crossed the Tai
tse river.
The Russian losses before Lia0yang
on Sept. 2, as officially computed. were
5000.

RUSSIAN GENERAL GETS AWAY
WITH HIS TWENTY-FIVE
THOUSAND TROOPS.
HINGES ON kuRokl's MOVE
FATE OF MANY RUSSIANS TO BE
DECIDED sv ACTION OF JAP.
ANEsE RIGHT ARMY.

The only direct news from the seat
OF war bearing Sundays date came by
way Of Toxic in a report from Field
Marshal Oyama saying that Liaoyang
fell completely into the hands of the
Japanese at 8 o'clock that morning,
that the Japanese casualties we're be-
.lieved to be heavy, and that nothing
was known by the Japanese concern
ang conditions on the right bank of the
Taitse river.
The only comfort for the Russians
at home was the news, conveyed in a
report from General Kuropatkin, dated
Saturday afternoon, that General Stalk
elberg's First Siberian army corps of
$4,000 men, reported Saturday as hav-
ing been cut off to the westward Of
Liaoyang, had been safely extricated
and that the corps has succeeded in
joining the main Russian body on the
right bank of the river, but no details
OF the escape of Stakelberg are Known.
General Kuropatkin also reported that
the greater portion of his army was at
the time of filing the report, south Of
Yentai (ten miles northeast of Lao
yang), and a few miles from the Yam
tai mines. where fierce fighting had
been in progress.
It is indicated that there has been a
cessation of the fierce fighting. Kuro-
patkin reported that his men were not
being much interfered with by the
Japanese in the neighborhood Of his
army.
In st. Petersburg the absence of
news is looked upon as heightening the
gravity of the situation for the Rus
SLAMS.
It was reported in st. Petersburg
Sunday night that Kuropatkin had ar
rived at Tiehling, ten miles north of
Yentai and eighteen miles south of
Mukden.

HINGES ON kuRokrs ADVANCE.
Success Of His Army Will Mean Bad
Russian Defeat.

Toxic, Sept. 5.-Beyond Field Mar
shall Oyama's dispatch reporting the
occupation Of Liaoyang and the com
nlencement Of General Kuroki's turn
ing movement against the Russian
left, nothing further concerning the
battle Of LiaOyang reached Toxic Sun
day. Neither the number of Russians
who succeeded In escaping northward,
nOr the number encompassed by Cen
eral KurOkis turning movement Is
known here. The severity Of the Rus
sian defeat hinges largely on Kurokis
movement. If successful, the number
OF Russian prisoners will be large.
The meager reports received inGi.
cate that the soldiers Of both armies
went to the limit of human endurance
and suffered terribly. It was impos-
siblc constantly to supply them with
food and water and the men have
fought for days past starving and
parched with thirst.
Although full details are lacking, the
duration of the fighting, the numbers
engaged and the losses SO far reported,
indicate that Liaoyang will prove to
be n of the greatest battles of his
tory.
The dispatch received from Field
Marshal Oyama announcing the fall of
LiaOyang had the effect Of cheering all
of the subjects of the mikado.
Throughout the rejoicing here fol-
lowing the earlier success Of Japanese
arms at Liaoyang, the more thought
full people feared the results of the ex-
posture to which the right wing of Cen
eral Kuroki's army was subjected and
it was held possible that the strength
of Liaoyang Notifications would per-
nit the withdrawal of the bulk of the
Russian forces there. Even now there
is doubt concerning the number Of
Russians who have escaped, but there
is no doubt about the character of the
victory at Liaoyang.
Toxic was brilliantly Illuminated
Sunday and joyful crowds paraded
the streets, cheering the exploits of
Field Marshal Oyama and Generals
Oku and Nodzu.
