not anticipate that it will have further

Japanese Report of Attempt to Block
Port Arthur.

Japanese Report of Attempt to Block
Port Arthur.
Toxic, Feb. 29.-The official report
of the attempt made last Tuesday
night to block the entrance of the har-
Dor of Port Arthur has reached Toxic.
The report was written by Vice Ad-
miral Kamimura, division commander
under Admiral Togo. The report re-
cites that at certain point near Port
Arthur number of merchant steam
ers, escorted by a torpedo fotilla, were
dispatched for the purpose of closing
the entrance to the harbor. The tor
pedo hotilla rejoined the feet at 10
a. m. Wednesday at sea at a rendez-
vous previously agreed upon and re-
ported that the steamer Hokoku Maru
had been sunk at the foot of the light
house on the left side of the entrance.
The Bushiu Maru was sunk outside,
beyond the Hokoku Maru. The Ten
shin Maru. the Buoy Maru and Jinsen
Maru were sunk at the foot of Laotche
hill. almost side by side All the
above mentioned steamers were sunk
by their own crews, who
Were All Safely Rescued.
The torpedo f!otilla was unharmed.
The torpedo Aotilla also reported that
1t discovered the Russian cruisers
Bayan and Novik, together with a few
destroyers, in the outer harbor. After
the aotilla rejoined it the main fleet
advanced slowly on Port Arthur,
where it found the Russian cruisers
Bayan, Askold and Novik slowly mov-
ing about the outer harbor under cover
of the batteries. A bombardment be-
gan at long range and at 11:45 a. m.
all the ships and batteries were re-
spending vigorously. Shortly after
noon the Novik retreated into the in
ner harbor, the Askold and Bayan
quickly following, demonstrating that
the sinking of the steamers had not
blocked the entrance of the harbor.
A bomb~rdment of the inner harbor
was then ordered and for fifteen min
utes all the heavy guns of the Jap.
anese fleet threw shells over the hills
into the harbor. The Japanese were
unable to determine the effect of the
bombardment, but saw huge columns
Of smoke arising from time to time.
