INVESTMENT or PORT ARTHUR.
Japanese Conduct Q Slow Engineer
Ing Advance.

I.iao Yang, July 30.--A Russian cor.
respondent OF the Associated Press, who
has Just arrived here after two months
stay at Port Arthur, gives an import.
ant and interesting narrative Of the stu
alton at the beleagured fortress when he
left there, July Ia which shows that
the Japanese operations until then bad
not advanced 80 far as supposed. Sew
eral Russian successes are chTonicled,
but the report Of japanese reverse,
with loss Of $4,000 men, 10 definitely
disposed Of, not being even mentioned
by the correspondent, who says:
"when put to sea In q junk the
land position on the Russian right flank
surrounding Green and Semaphore
hills, which the Russians had lost, had
been reeaptured by assault. The
heights Of Huinsin, which the Japanese
defended desperately, alone remained
In their hands. But / am convinced
that this position also has since been
retaken. The very morning Of my de-
parIurc, July IL, the position was be.
Ing bombarded by six.ineh Howitzers
and shells were falling repeatedly into
the Japanese works, causing great dis.
order.
ITO sum up, by the fighting OF July
8, 4 and D. when evidently the Russian
forces were acting on the offensive, the
Russians iegained on the land side the
positions they had held In front OF the
fortress previous to the battle Of Kai
Chou.
1.-THE main forces Of the beseigers
are on the average at distance Of 20
miles from the perimeter OF the fortress
on the Russian right, but the japanese
have approached 20 within IL miles on
the Russian left. As far as Inchente
station, IA miles from Port Arthur,
the railroad is working. Between 40,-
600 and 90 900 men are operating be-
fore. Port Arthur. The troops maintain
q constant exchange of skirmishlng FIRE,
but the field or other guns are usually
silent. The japanese are apparently
conducting slow, engineering advance.
"0iten In the morning the Russians
discover fresh trenches, The Japane-e
ave compelled to abandon this work In
the daytime, as the Russians regularly
open fire on them as soon as daylight
discloses the works" !"

OREGON NEWS OF INTEREST
SHEEP swARnING IN.
Thousands are Being rioved OHIO
Cascade Forest Reserve.


saIem--The news has reached this
city TO the effect that the country in
the neighboThood Of Breitenbush, in
the western part OF the Cascade forest
reserve, is threatened with devastation
Of vegetation by reason Of the encroach-
ment Of the Eastern Oregon sheepmen,
with their enormous focks OF sheep.
Already hundreds Of sheep are 10 be
seen in the vicinity oi Detroit, and, II
Is said, there will be no less than 12,.
600 head in that part Of the reserve be-
fore the grazing season closes.
There is quetsion Of whether the
grazing permits contemplate the en-
croachment upon this territory, and
the settlers in that section are vigor-
ously protesting against it.
Hon. John Mimic has returned from
visit to Mimic pass through the Cas-
eades, and reports The encroachments
OF Eastern Oregon sheepmen on the
western part Of the forest reserve
are alarming the people Of that part
Of the country. Minto said that be-
tween Warm Springs and Detroit, a
distance Of l6 miles, be passed through
six miles Of sheep, 1,70O in number
Mimic considers 1t an outrage, as he
does not think the sheepmen have the
rights so far west as they are coming,
but they claim they have a stretch two
townships wide there, and will bring
$1,000 sheep into the district.
Summer cutters and others there are
worried, thinking the sheep will de-
stroy all pleasure, and also the oppor-
tunity for keeping domestic animals.

RAIDS TO CEASE
Protests Of Britain and Germany

st. Petersburg, July 27.--Grand
Duke Alexis presided at yesterdays
council, which Count Lamsdorf, the
foreign secretary, and Vice Admiral
AvelIan, chief Of the admiralty depart
ment, and other high naval officials at
tended.
The result Of the conference removes
all doubts concerning the present atti-
tude Of Russia with regard to the vol
unteei feet. The validity Of the view
expressed in the British note regarding
the irregularity Of the position Of the
vessels was go far admitted that the
council agreed to waive the right Of
search.
After long discussion. in which
Count Lamsdorff took leading part,
it was decided that the present status
Of the volunteer feet was not sufficient
ly we'll defined according to intelna-
fional law to render further searches
and seizures advisable and that there
fore Russia. in the interests Of friendly
relations with the powers should With
draw the authority given the volunteer
feet in this respect.
