JAPANESE TORPEDO BOAT SUNK
AND RUSSIAN DESTROYER
MEETS SAME FATE.
ADMIRAL MAkAROfF IN COMMAND
COMPLETE CHANGE OF TACTICS
SINCE HIS ARRIVAL FROM
ST. PETERSBURG.

St Petersburg. March 12.-The Rus
sian torpedo boat flotilla left Port Ar
thur at broad daylight and attacked
the Japanese fleet One Japanese tor
pedo boat was sunk and one Russian
torpedo boat destroyer, the Bezposht-
chadni, was sunk. The fate Of the
latter's crew is not known.
Admiral Makaroff inaugurated his
assumption Of the command of the
Russian fleet at Port Arthur by COM
plete change of tactics. AS soon as
he appeared he ordered the removal of
the battleNlip Retvizan, which was
stranded at the mouth of the harbor
and barred the channel at certain
stages OF the tide, making the egress
OF battleships impossible. During the
morning he directed sortie OF the
torpedo boat flotilla, supported by a
part of the Russian squadron, against
the japanese squadron. The details
are not yet known except that the en-
counter resulted in the loss of one
japanese torpedo boat and one Rus
sian torpedo boat destroyer.

MYSTlFIED BY JAP ACTION.
Russians Do Not Understand Object of
Bombardment.


St. Petersburg, March 12.-No fur
ther news is obtainable OF the bonn
bardment of Port Arthur, which was
progressing, according to the latest
advices, at O'Clock Thursday morn
Ing. Whatever later information, If
any, the emperor may have, is not
known.
Military and naval circles are mysti-
fed at the purpose OF the appearance
OF Japanese torpedo boats during the
previous night, as 1t was not accom-
panied by serious attempt upon the
Russian ships.
The bombardment of the fleet from a
position or the Liaotishin promontory,
which is five to six miles from Golden
hill. at the entrance of the harbor. is
believed to indicate that the Japanese
were afraid to risk a frontal attack
under the guns of the land batteries.
1t is considered doubtful whether any
of the guns Of the Russian batteries
command the location from which the
Japanese were firing. 1t is pointed
out that dropping shells into the har-
Dor and town even for fun is accom-
panied by danger and this haphazard
work is explicable perhaps only on the
theory that IL was meant as diversion
to cover more serious operations else
where. Still, some Of the experts here
declare their belief that the only OBJ
ject OF the Japanese was to keep the
garrison and feet worried.

owned by the Pere Marquette and Bes-
semer Dock and Navigation company,
was entirely destroyed by fire off this

fatal injury OF Engineer Morrell. The
beat was one of the largest OF her
kind on the Great Lakes. valued al
$3.50 goo, and had a carrying capacity
of twenty-six cars. The fire is sup
posed to have resulted from an explo-
sion of oil in the engineroom.
The vessel attempted to make trip
from here to Port Stanley early in
January, but was caught in the heavy
ice. She finally succeeded in working
her way back into the Conneaut break
water, where she has remained frozen
in by the ice ever since.
When the fire was discovered ii was
found that she was too far out to be
reached by the local fire department.
Engineer Morrell was the only mem
Der of the crew awake when the flames
broke out Finding that the fire was
beyond control he hastily aroused, the
others on board and all escaped but
the fireman, McCarter. Upon discover
ing that McCarter was still in the
hold of the vessel Morrell returned TO
awaken him. He was caught by the
flames and before he could be rescued
was so badly burned that he will prob
ably die. McCarter's body was con-
sumed by the flames.

tion was the result Of conspiracy

Just Oxygen.

Liquozone is simply liquid oxygen-no
drugs, no alcohol in it. 1t is the discovery
of PAUL., the great German chemist, who
spent 20 years on it. His object was to
get such an excess of oxygen in staple
form into the blood that no germ could
live in any membrane or tissue.
Oxygen Is life to an animal-the very
source of vitality. We would die in three
minutes without it. In this liquid form
its effects are exhilarating, purifying,
vitalizing. But germs are vegetables, and
this excess of oxygen is deadly to vege-
table matter.
