JAP TORPEDO DESTROYERS
MAKE BRILLIANT ATTACK
IN PORT ARTHUR HARBOR
-Four Vessels Sent in at Night in Attempt Duplicate tie Fea
Against The Chinese at Watai.Wei But With Different
Resulis-AnOther Sea Battle Progressing.

ST. Petersburg. July Ga few
nights ago Admiral Togo attempted to
repeat the Japanese exploit with tor.
pedo boats at WeiIIai-We, during
the Chinese-Japanese war. by sending
torpedo boat destroyers into the har-
Dor Of Port Arthur for the purpose OF
sinking ships at their anchorage. but
the attempt ended in disastrous fail.
urc
Four torpedo boat destroyers sue
ceeded In creeping into the harbor,
which was not protected by booms,
but only one escaped. Two were sunk
by the shore batteries ana one was
crippled.
The reckless bravery of the Japan
ese in going to almost certain destruc-
tion excites nothing but admiration
here.
The channel at Port Arthur is so
torturous and strewn with wrecks
without that evidently it was
regarded as unnecessary to use a
boom.
On account of the difficulty of get.
ting into the harbor. the feat Is con
sidered in naval circles 10 be fully as
daring as that Of Che Japanese at Wei
Hai-Wei, where Japanese torpedo
boats, in a storm and covered with ice
were jumped over the booms protect
ing that harbor and destroyed Chi
nese warships.
So far as known, the japanese tor
pedo boat destroyers did not even sue
ceed in launching torpedoes.
