centre toward Shu-Shi-Yen and Itze-Shan and
the left from the direction Of Dalny. The first
general attack after this general advance was
directed against Taku-Shan and Siao- Ku- Shan.
The right wing then advanced to Chiao- Kia-
Weizu and sent outposts to nine forest near
Ko- Kia-Tun.
We dug trenches for our outposts. each a
metre square deep, which permitted two men to
stand in each Twenty-Five metres separate
each trench. These trenches proved somewhat
ineffective
on August 4, our artillery opened fire for the
purpose of developing the strength of the enemy.
Numerous skirmishes followed.
ON August the Russians mounted heavy
guns In the neighborhood of Yuta Shan and
sheed our artillery assembled at Chu-
Kai-Tun and responded. The duel continued
until August g. After hot fight we captured
and occupied Siao- Ku- Shan.
On August the Russians endeavored TO re-
take these positions. They made p desperate

THE RUSSIANS TRICKED.
kuropatkin's army SAID TO Be
Helpless Hitch at Shanghai.

London, Aug. 29.-The London papers this
morning have numerous dispatches from the Far
East. most of them dealing with the position of
Port Arthur. II is pointed out that the Japan

eral oyama in 1894. but that. granting that the
Japanese have penetrated far as represented,
which is considered doubtful, there still for
mdable forts to be silenced before general as
sault is possible. Equal interest is displayed
here in what is regarded the precarious po-
sition of General Kuropatkin's forces.
According to a dispatch TO The Daily Mail
from Kupang-Tse. dated August Y, Russian
staff officers confess themselves completely III
the dark to the meaning of the Japanese
movements and that consequently they have no
definite plan. Ten days ago. feeling that Lao
Yang would be surrounded, General kuropatklh
began to draw his troops northward- ihen Oh
the japanese retiring he brought them back
again but continued his preparations for erect
ing retreat. There is no doubt, says the CORE
spondent that the Russian army is now COM
pletely at the mercy of the Japanese whenever
they choose to attack.
The Liao-Yang correspondent of The Daily
Telegraph" in a dispatch dated August ~, says
that the Japanese pushing on against 'hree
sides of the city, near which there is CONTINUOUS
fighting A great quantity OF transport mas
been sent north The rumor' that the japanese
turns out to be incorrect. The correspondent
continues:
The Japanese are reported to be adopting
new method of night attack. They concentrate
searchlights the point attacked. thus pre-
venting the garrison from seeing anything
Describing recent fighting the correspondent
says
The shooting on both sides was splendid. the
Russians contrasting every inch of the ground
with all their characteristic stubbornness. The
japanese attack from the direction of the Lao
River has not yet developed.
Special dispat ches from Shanghai report that
there is hitch regarding the cruiser Askold
and the destroyer Grozovoi The Japanese
government having discovered, the dispatches
say, that the paroled crews OF the Variag and
Korietz have been drafted into the Baltic fleet,
now insists that China shall retain the crews
Of the cruiser and the destroyer until the end of
the war.

The Japanese commander. the correspondent
says has ordered that shells be thrown into

EXPECT THREE TO DIE.
Fro,,kfwter Boiler Eaplodes-
Caused BIZ Fire.

Three persons will die. the physicians at
Gouverneur Hospital think, as the result OF the
explosion of a frankfurter boiler in the apart
ment of Israel Rosensweig on the third floor of
No los Norfolk-st. yesterday. Rosensweis s
wife Pauline his Mendel, three years old.
and his baby Lena, three months Old, were
burned badly about the body, their clothing
having caught fire from burning kerosene oil
from the fuel tank Rosensweig had narrow
escape. The explosion and fire that followed
created a panic in the tenement house.
Rosensweig is a frankfurter pedler and EN-
ploys Abraham MInde. who boards with him.
The man started TO boil his sauerkraut and
frankfurters yesterday preparatory to going to
his stand. The boiler was the kitchen table.
Rosensweig filled the fuel tank with kerosene,

way He had scarcely gone when the explosion
occurred.
Rushing back into the kitchen, he found his
wife and two little children lying the floor
with their clothing afire. He picked up the
baby, tore the burning clothing from her. and
placed her on a bed in the next room. Then he
returned and pulled the burning clothing from
his wife. Mendel ran into the hallway with his
clothing fire. Men who had heard the ex-
plosion pulled off his burning clothes and car
ried him TO the street. Minde VAS not hurt.

GENERAL STOESSELs STRENGTH.
Russians Expect the Siege to Last Two
Months-Rushes Repealed.

Lao Yang, Aug. % delayed in transmission.
Numerous trustworthy reports which have
reached here through a dispatch carrier and
other persons are to the effect that, despite the
extreme Japanese measures in the last fortnight
to perfect blockade OF Port Arthur by sinking
all junks near that place, the Russians outside
of Port Arthur are considerably underestmated,
as is also the resisting power OF the fortress
which is likely to hold out for two months, and
possibly until January, under the present
strength Of the assault.
Contrary to the belief here that the Japanese
had taken the outer forts at Port Arthur It is
now understood that tho Russians up to August
IS were successfully defending five mile cir
conference, and that. though the old town was
receiving an average of twenty-five Japanese
shells daily. the restaurants and clubs. properly
safeguarded. continued open, and there was or
der through the town.
The Japanese occasionally shell the new town.
and often attempt to rush the outer trenches
sometimes getting within hundred yards of
them when they are unable TO support the at
tan<-awinR to thA mortality ia the ranks.
