Will Die Fighting.

Paris, Nov. 4.-Dispatches received
here from st. Petersburg report that
news from Port Arthur Is as bad as 1t

ing with irresistible energy. More re-
liable reports do not confirm these
statements, but the Toxic report of
the capture of Wantai hill, dominat-
ing fort within two miles of the rail-
way terminus, shows that the Japanese
are making rapid strides.

semi circle of forts defending. Port Ar

of the semi-circle, between the Antse
mountain forts and Sungchow fort,
