ANOTHER WAGE CUT
of 10 Per Cent. to he Made by FAN
River Mills.

River Mills.
Fall River, Mass, May Pa move
ment in favor Of a general reduction
of 10 per cent. in the wages of the tex
tile operatives of this city was for
mally set on foot at a meeting of the
Fall River Manufacturers Association
to-day. The Executive Committee
was instructed to secure signatures
binding the thirty-five corporal ations
represented in the association to abide
by a cut down in the schedule. The
majority of the manufacturers favor
an immediate cut down, as they con-
tend they are being undersold in the
open market.
The operatives, of whom at least 25,-
900 would be affected by a change in
the pay schedule, are uneasy, and
there is much strike talk In the air,
but should a cut be made 1t is thought
the mill hands would eventually accept
it in view of the unsatisfactory trade
conditions.
A general reduction Of 10 per cent.
was made here last fall.

JAPANEsE ATTACK ON PORT Ar.

THE RUSSIANS ADMIT.
ONE TORPEDO BOAT DESTROYER
SUNK AND SEVERAL OTHERS
PUT OUT OF ACTION.
FoRrlFlcArioNs OF CITY SUB.
JEcTED TO A FoUR-HoUR
COMMANDMENT.

Yinkow, March 15.-Much damage
was done by the Japanese lombard,
ment of Port Arthur Thursday morn
ing. Thirty-eight persons were killed
and over 100 wounded. A Japanese
12.inch shell landed in the lower land
fort, killing and wounding one officer
and forty-two men. The Russian feet,
all the vessels of which lay inside the
harbor, took no part in the fighting.
The Retvizan was hit as she lay in
the naval basin by three shells and
sustained several casualties. After
action the captain, Prince Lieven. took
the squadron of torpedo boat destroy
ers outside for scouting purposes and
returned at midday.
In order to raise the Retvizan two
steamers in the Chinese Railway COM
pany's service. the Hallar and the Har-
bin, were brought round to Port Ar
thur from Dalny. One was sunk on
each side of the battleship. The
steamers were then pumped out and
the Retvizan was thus successfully
moved into the naval basin. The dock
Is too small to hold her and so it will
be impossible to repair her at Port
Arthur.
General Stoessel has been ordered
to the Yalu and will be replaced at
Port Arthur by General Smirnoff. The
garrison consists of 10000 men.

onselai Story Of Torpedo Boat En-
oa0ement.
st. Petersburg, March 14.-The story
OF Fridays naval battle In which q
Russian and japanese boat were sunk
is told in the following report made
to the car by Viceroy Alexieff:
admiral Makaroff, commanding the
feet, reports from Port Arthur as fol-
lows:
"Six torpedo boats went out to sea,
encountered the enemy's torpedo
boats, followed by cruisers.
"a hot. action ensued in which the
torpedo boat destroyer Vlastini dis
charged a Whitehead torpedo and sunk
one of the enemy's torpedo boats. On
the way back the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Stereguschtchi sustained dam
age; her engine was disabled and she
began to founder.
when the critical position of the
Stereguschtchi became evident hoist
ed my flag on the cruiser Novik and
went with the cruiser Novik and the
cruiser Boyarin to the rescue.
But as five Of the enemy's cruisers
surrounded our destroyer and as their
hattleship squadron was approaching
did not succeed in saving the Stere-
guschtchi. which foundered. Part of
the crew were made prisoners and
part were drowned.
ION the ships which participated in
the night attack one officer was sc.
riously and three others were slightly
wounded, two soldiers were killed and
eighteen were wounded"

japanese Commander Describes Attack
on Port Arthur.
Toxic, March 15.-Official and pri-
vate reports both indicate that Ad-
miral Togo's fourth attack on Port
Arthur on the 10th inst. was the most
effective since the first assault of q
month ago.
One Russian torpedo boat destroyer
was sunk and several Russian torpedo
boat destroyers were seriously dam
aged. The Notifications and city were
subjected to a heavy bombardment,
lasting nearly four hours.
Admiral Togo's torpedo fotilla
opened the action by boldly steaming
In under the batteries and successfully
placing number Of mechanical mines
at the mouth of the harbor. Following
that there was desperate bow to
bow encounter between the torpedo
boat destroyers, in which the Japanese
appear to have scored a clear victory.
Then followed long range duel be-
tween the cruisers, ending in the re-
tirement Of the Novik and Bayan, the
only Russians engaged. The closing
action was the bombardment Of the
inner harbor by the Japanese battle
ships. The latter took position
southwest of Port Arthur and used
only their 12-inch guns. There were
twenty-four 12-inch guns in the squad
ron Of six battleships and each was
fired five rounds, making total Of
12O huge projectiles that were fired at

Russians Rescued by Japs Did Not Be.
long to the Stereguschtehi.
Toxic, March 15.-A supplementary
report from Vice Admiral Togo, con-
corning the efforts r.ade by the crews
of the Japanese torpedo boat destroy
ers in action off Port Arthur on the
10th inst. to rescue the crews of the
disabled Russian torpedo boat destroy
ers, reached here during the day. Cap
tain Shojiro Asai: commanding the flo
tilla of torpedo boat destroyers, states
that the japanese would have been
able to rescue many more of the en-
envy but for the deadly fire of the shore
batteries and the close approach Of
the Russian cruiser Novik.
The report also explains that four
men rescued were not part of the crew
of the Stereguschtchi, as originally re-
ported. When the japanese cruisers
reached the Stereguschtchi only the
dead remained on board and it is be-
Eeved that the living members of the
crew jumped overheard and persisted
in the sea. Three of the rescued Rus
SLAMS are engineers and the fourth is
a torpedo operator. Two of the cap
tives were slightly wounded. They
were all placed on board a Japanese
battleship and were given food and
medicine

Chicago, March 14.-Hanging for all
was the Verdict Of the Jury in the MUIR
der case against the so-called "car
barn bandits Harvey Vandine, Peter
Neidermeyer and Gustave Marx, who
attained notoriety by a desperate all
day battle that started in a dugout
near Liverpool, Ind, where the trio
had taken refuge after a series of re-
markable crimes, including the MUIR
der of two employees Of the Chicago
City railway at one of the company's
barns in this city, the motive in each
instance being robbery.
