WOMAN DESCRIBES FLIGHT
FROM PORT ARTHUR.
The wife of naval officer gave graph
ic account of the bombardment of Port
Arthur February 9. and the flight of wo-
men and children the next day. She was
awakened in the middle of the night by
the heavy reports of the guns, and her
first thought was that they were due to
blasting operations at the dockyard, but
when the guns of the fortress began to
boom she awoke the servants, who were
terror-stricken. She then went out on
the balcony and saw the searchlights
wildly swirling. The town was deserted
except in front of the residence of Vice
roy Alexieff.
The officers wife, with an infant. took
a train from Port Arthur in the morning,
and she describes the awful crush at the
station and also at Dalny. where she
learned of the fate of the Varig at Che
mulpo. Great hardships were suffered by
the travellers until they reached Irkutsk.
eighteen days later.
The trains and stations were crowded.
and the woman found 1t impossible to even
lay her baby down on the floor of the car,
which was covered with baggage. She
says that mothers fought to get food for
their children.
