for the voluntary disarmament Of the Russian
cruiser Askold and the Grozovoi, now at Shah-

that the repairs would entail such a stay at

RUSSIANS IN THE DARK.
No Ne1cs from Fortress-Ihe
Northern Army Strengthened.

ct. Petersburg. Aug. 24.-In spite of the anxi-
ETY. which is felt regarding the fate of Port Ar
thur, the War Office and the Admiralty were
practically closed to-day on account OF the
christening, and official dispatches were given
out.
So far Els can be asccrtained, no further news
of the progress OF the fighting before the be-
leaguered fortress has been received, except
that contained in reports from foreign sources
These latter are conflicting. of them rep
resenting that the Japanese assault has become
exhausted and others saying that the Japanese
have captured Itse-Shan fort belonging to the
western line of defences. If this position has
been taken and occupied, IT is realized that un-
less the Japanese are at once dislodged the
chain of forts will be preached and the position
of Port Arthur rendered critical. The report,
however, is considered as requiring connrma"
ton.
The fact that the day to which large por-
ton of the public looked forward with super
stitious dread passed without the fall of The
fortress encourages the popular hope that the
christening of the CZarevitCh Will mark turn
in the tide.
Reports that General Kuropatlin is about TO
make an important move continue to be clrcu-
lated but the character of the diversion is not
limited at
Since his retirement from Si-Mu-Cheng and
the Yangtse Pass it is estimated that more
than thirty-hve thousand reinforcements have
reached General Kuropatkin.
Nothing has been received from Russian
sources confirming the report that the battleshlp
Sebastopol struck a mine outside Port Arthur
