OCCUPY ALL THE FORTS AROUND
PORT ARTHUR EXCEPTING
GOLDEN HILL.
SITUATION is VERY CRITICAL
RUSSIANS BELIEVE THAT kURO
PATKlN MUST GIVE BATTLE
OR RETREAT.

Chefoo, Aug. IA Japanese mer.
chant has received word from a Chi
nese whom he trusts, to the effect that
the Japanese have occupied every po-
sition surrounding the besieged fort
ress of Port Arthur, with the excep-
ton of Golden Hill. The Chinese
states that both sides suffered tre-
mendous losses in the operations nee
essary to bring about this state of at
fairs.
The members of the Russian intelli-
gence bureau here, while denying the
report that Port Arthur has been cap
tured, are inclined to believe the re-
ports true to the extent that the Japa-
nese have made great progress in
their operations about the besieged
fortress. The party of Russian refu-
gees expected here today have not as
yet arrived.
Reports brought here by Chinese
refugees from the neighborhood OF
Port Arthur agree in stating that a
general assault in full strength is be-
ing delivered against the Russian
fortress, and IN appalling artillery at.
tack is being made. The hail of steel
that is being poured into the citadel
surpasses anything of its kind ever
witnessed in the history of war. -Four
hundred heavy guns, all posted in ex.
cellent positions, are at work.

REFUSE TO REVEAL IDENTITY.
Russian Police Reticent Regarding As
sassin Of Won PIehve.


sassin Of Won PIehve.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-The muir
derer of M. Won Plehve has been re-
moved from the hospital to the wy
borgsky prison. The police know the
alias under which he travelled, but say
that they are not vet satisfied regard
ing his identity, and decline to reveal
the alias on the ground that it might
defeat the ends of justice. w.
There is no longer any doubt that
the police for some time have had
knowledge of the existence of a plot
by a band of international anarchists
In Paris and Vienna. The leading
conspirator, it is said, was a man
whom the Russian government tried
to extradite from Paris last fall. Some
of these conspirators arrived here a
week ago, and the police thought that
all of them had been taken into Gus
tody. The far-reaching character OF
the machinery of the ministry of the
interior and the urgent necessity for
dealing with many pending matters,
render it imperative that the en-
peror select a e to M. Won
Plehve Immediately, and it is consid-
cred certain that he will do 81 this
week. Influence hostile to M. White,
president of the council Of ministers,
in spite of his acknowledged great
ability and the general belief that he
is the man for the position, seem to
render his appointment increasingly
improbable.

Front Of Russian Army.

Front Of Russian Army.
St. Petersburg, Aug. Lieutenant
General Sakha1otf i'll a dispatch to the
genelal staff dated July 80, reports
hat there has been no change in the
front Of the Manchurian army up to
midday Sunday. The Japanese are
concentrating strongly on our southern
front"
General Sakharoff then refers to
General Oku's account of the battle Of
Tatchekiao and declares that the Rus
sian forces were not al large as Cen
eral Oku represented, adding:
"Our position was occupied solely
with a view Of keeping the enemy in
check and with no idea of ~obstinately
defending it. We did not throw up
any special defenses. We held all
our positions against the japanese at
lacks and then retired because the
commanding officer did not deem it
possible to accept battle the following
morning while defeifding a position
with a front of ten miles. The evacua-
tion of our position was a complete
surprise to the Japanese"

SITUATION is SERIOUS
RUSSIANS FEAR THAT KUROPAT
KIN is IN A DANGEROUS
POSITION.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-Although
public attention has been distracted
from the events of the war during the
past week, first because of the fear
of international complications, and,
Minister of, the Interior o Plehve,
the situation at the front is regarded
as critical.
The enveloping movement of the
three Japanese armies Of Generals
eral kuropatkin's position appears to
line of the Japanese seems to be the
only drawback to concerted action.
It is realized here that the Russian
general must now either fight or with
draw the whole army northward. He
is being closely pressed at Haicheng.
At that place General Kuroki's north
ern column makes it extremely dan
gerous to remain there, because, while
holding the position to give battle
against the Japanese, whose advance
is VIGOROUSLY always slow and care
full, General kuroki might push
through and cut his railway communi-
cations to Liaoyang.
While nothing is definitely known
there are some unofficial indications
that matters are rapidly maturing for
either a battle OF retreat. For in
stance, the refusal to accept further
press kilograms at Haicheng is shown
by the fact that n correspondent
had to ride through to Mukden to file
an account of the Tatchekiao fight.
Perhaps Indicates a Retirement.
This might be construed either that
precautions are making for a retire
ment or that the wires are very
crowded incident to a concentration
at Haicheng or Liaoyang. A few days
are expected to determine which
course General KurOpatkin has elected
to pursue.
There is no inclination here to doubt
that there may have been pretty Sc
we're fighting at the outer positions OF
Port Arthur, possibly accompanied by
a bombardment from the sea, but 1t is
not believed that the Japanese are
yet ready to storm the fortress. Rear
Admiral Without, in command Of the
naval forces at Port Arthur, is relied
on to put to sea if the condition of the
fortress becomes desperate. While
no definite information is obtainable,
the report that the fortress is short OF
ammunition is considered by the pub
lie as the most disquieting feature OF
the situation there.
The indications are that the Baltic
squadron is on the v of an important
movement. Nothing regarding this
can be a~scertained officially but many
of the officers already have said fare
we'll to friends and families and are
holding themselves ready for instant
service. The emperor had arranged
to inspect the squadron, but his plan
was given up, owing to the assassina'
ton of Minister Won Plehve.

have been taken out by Fremont d.
