FIRE DRILL SAVES PANIC.
Deaf and Dumb Institute Pupils
March ont litter Explosion.

More than a hundred deaf and dumb girls
gave an exhibition of good discipline and cool
ness in ST Josephs Institute for the Deaf and
Dumb, on the north side of One-hundred-a
eighty eghth-st., eanr Third-ave., yesterday,
when a fire followed explosion in one of the
buildings. One hundred and eighteen girls
coolly fell into line on seeing the fire signal
waved by the teacher. and marched quietly out
side the buildings.
Three buildings are in the institute grounds.
In the centre is the main building, to the east is
the school building. and to the west the dor
mitOry, where the explosion and fire occurred.
The main building is connected with the small
er structures by covered passageways at the
second floor
Workmen left connected a gaspipe with plug
in one end TO stop any gas flow This plug,
which was in the dormitory cellar, became
loosened and the outflow of gas exploded when
1t came in contact with the furnace fire The
explosion not of much force but it made
loud report.
Bernard McCabe, the engineer found the fur
room in flames He reported to Miss
O'Connor the superintendent, who turned in
alarm from the institute box. Then Miss
O'Connor hurried to the second floor and told
the fifteen teachers there, and sent two of them
through the covered passagewaS 20 the main
building and through that structure to the
school building to tell the three teachers in
charge of the 11S deaf and dumb girls then in
the building enjoying a play hour, to march
them out.
The teachers gave the fire signal, waving a
red handkerchief. AS they had been trained to
do. the girls quietly formed in three sections.
Each section. led by a teacher. marched out OF
the building into the institute grounds. The
fremen arrived after the girls reached the
open air and soon eXtinguished the flames

RUSSIANS RETRE1TING.
Report That Only Forts at Port
arthur Are Manned.

London Dec 10.-According to 1.-THE Morning
Posts Shanghai dispatches. the Port Arthur
forces. with the exception of those manning the
forts. have already retreated to Lao-Teai-Shan.
Details continue to filter in of the capture Of
2O3-Metre Hill. The Daily Telegreph's" CORE
spondent before Port Arthur explains that the
final capture was due to a strong and sustained
japanese feint against the eastern Notifications
on the night OF December >, and, the position
of 203- Metre Hill being enflading one. forced
the Russians to evacuate without a contest a
parallel line of semi-permanent defences ex-
tending eastward and irregularly over the slopes
within half mile north Of Else Mountain.
The Japanese casualties at 203-Metre Hill
alone exceeded the total of the battle Of Nan
shan, according to The Daily Mails" Toxic
dispatches. At o'clock in the afternoon of
November % a Tomoyasu detachment with
battalion of infantry and a company of en-
gineers, received orders that they must capture
203-Metre Hill, while a Yosid detachment of
the same strength had similar orders to capture
Akasaka Hill. On November 30 it became nee
essary to reinforce the attackers with a de-
tachment under Major Shzuta. The cold was
so intense that many of the men were frost
bitten, as il was necessary to pass the night
without shelter. The japanese, after the capt
ure of 203-Metre Hill. anticipated a terrible
bombardment from the Russian forts and made
prepare tons accordingly. but the Russians re-
manned strangely quiet.
The same correspondent says that the Rus
slams at Port Arthur December { resumed
mine clearing operations. presumably to enable
the torpedo boat destroyers to attempt to escape
and join the Baltic Squadron.
The Daily Telegraph's" Ten-Tsin correspond
ent reports that General Oku, after three days
artillery engagement drove the Russians
Sunday out of the small. lofty island OF Gushan,
in the river. ten miles north of LiaO-Yang- The
Russians. 1t is added. abandoned a quantity of
suppliesrand several guns and retired to po-
sition eight miles northwest whence they
heavily bombarded the japanese, setting fire on
Tuesday to kerosene storehouses and causing a
great fire which did not cease until Wednesday.
The japanese are still CALAMITY holding the
island with handful of men. Their casualties,
il is said number 1000.
