TWENTY THOUSAND SLAIN
RUMORED JAPANESE REPULSE IN
AN ATTEMPT TO STORM
PORT ARTHUR.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 4.-The first
Russian report Of the stOrming oper
atoms at Port Arthur has just been re-
ceived from the consul of Russia at
Chefoo. 1t says general attack be-
gan Saturday, with the Japanese in
immense force. There were two days
of a bombardment of unprecedented
violence. The Japanese, at the time
of sending this dispatch, the consul
adds, had everywhere been repulsei
with great loss. The Japanese casual
ties possibly reached 10000, but the
Russian losses were insignificant
The consul further reports that the
Russians have an abundance of am
munition. The telegram does not men
ton naval operations, but it is here
considered possible that the Russian
warships participated in Smelling the
beSiegerS from the sea.
The exact date of the events re-
ported in this telegram is not clear,
as the method of transmission is not
disclosed. 1t is possible that it was
wireless message reporting events
which have occurred since last Sat
urday.
On the other hand the message may
have gone by junk to Chefoo. in which
case it refers to events of week ago
and practically covers the reports
mentioned in the Associated Press dis
patches from Chefoo.

TO AVOID COMPLICATIONS.
russia Makes Partial Concession O
DardaneIles Question.

London, Aug. Ain order to avoid
complications which might have the
effect of extending the area of war
Russia has made a partial concession
to Great. Britain in, connection with
the Dardanelles question Replying to
British representations regarding the
closure of the Dardanelles to vessels
of the volunteer feet intended for war

Count Benckendorff, the Russian am
bassador to Great Britain, it is learned,
has advised Foreign Secretary Lans-
downe that his government consents
to waive the right Ito send ships
through the straits during the present
war, but at the same time Russia
makes no concession in relation to
the general principle involved and re-
serves TO herself the right to take such
action as she deems proper when the
war with Japan terminates. The Brit
ish government would like complete
settlement of the principle, but Russia
does not propose to negotiate on this
subject, if avoidable, while the war is
in progress. q. ii

SEIZURE OF AMERICAN GOODS
State Department Not Vet Ready to
Define Its Position.

Washington, Aug. 4.-The state de-
partment is in Geographic commune
cation with it's agencies abroad re-
specting the Russian seizures and de-
struction of American goods, but it is
not yet ready to define precisely its
position as to the whole subject Of
seizures. These exchanges are not
confined to St Petersburg and Wash
ington, but are intended to develop the
purposes of the governments Of other
nations and particularly of Great Brit
ain and Germany, whose shipping has
suffered more than that of any other.
The loss of part of cargo is in
point Of international law an issue Of
far less magnitude than the destruc-
ton of ship, and so far the British
and Germans have lost their ships and
the Americans only the cargo. This
fact is believed to justify the state de-
partment in proceeding more leisurely
than would otherwise be the case,
leaving it to- the larger sufferers to es-
tablish their own policies respecting
/ seizures. 49,. .s.,r

Russian Forces Form SemicircIe.

The Russian forces constitute COM
pact chain in the form of semicircle
around Liaoyang, extending from An
shanshan, half way between Haicheng
and Liaoyang, to Anping, which is
only thirteen miles east of Liaoyang
Unless the bulk OF General kuropat>
kins army has already been with
drawn north of Liaoyang it is difficuls
to see how he could now do SO With
such great pressure, the Japanese be
ing almost upon his main lines. mas
much as portions of four army corps
were engaged in the fighting so far
and as these corps comprise three
quarters of the whole Russian army,
it seems certain that nothing except
q portion of the stores and munitions
have yet been removed. Nevertheless,
well informed military attaches eX
press the opinion that General kuro
patkin will get away with the bulk of
the main army if he finds the chances
against him.
Intense anxiety prevails in all cir
cles. All newspaper specials from the
front are suspended, which is consid-
cred Omincus.

Cold blooded people, who have little

drinking certain amount Of hot water
every day throughout the winter season.

proves the circulation and benefits coughs
and insomnia
Before going to bed is very good time
for this practice, as it warns up and re-
lakes the system, thus preparing the way
for a good nights sleep.
Many cases of indigestion, headache,

cured in half an hour by drinking slowly
one or two pints of water so hot that it
almost burns the throat.
