WAR NEWS.

London, Feb. 26-War correspond
nnts and Europeans in Japan, com
manting in amazement on the success
of Japanese officials in preserving Sc
crecv regarding all the operations or
war, declare this conspiracy OIL 81
lence' is not confined to government
and service circles, but that it extenus
to every section of the community All
classes of people are submitting Win
marvellous patience to being deprived
of news. which hardship they recognize
&c inoneratiye to the success of the
cause. 1t is undoubtedly in pursuance
of this policy that no japanese &C
count of the Port Arthur attacks mas
vet been published, and none Is s.
pected till Admiral Togo has comple1-
ed his designs there.
In the meantime, if the report from
Yin Kow Of a japanese landing near
Vladivcstok should prove correct
| most inportant and new development
in the Japanese operations Will nave

on Vladivostok, from which Possle'
hav is only a little over seventy miles
distant. The report that the rallroau
has been cut between Harpln anu
Vladiyostok may possibly connect Win
these operations, but until more rella-
HE information is forthcoming, TINS

It has already been reported from
TOXIC that certain Russian forces were
concentrating on Possiet bay.
