A Naval Fight at Port Arthur.

While awaiting positive and reliable news
of the land operations in the vicinity of
kai Ping and Hal Cheng. where the joint
armies OF Generals Kuroki and Oku are
confronting the forces of Kuropatkin the
uncertainty rega riding the situation at Port
Arthur has been somewhat dispelled by an
official report dispatched today from
Tokyo. Admiral Togo announces that on
Thursday his scout boats reported the pres
ence Of the Russian fleet at the mouth OF
the harbor. evidently massing for an at
tempt to dash out under cover of the night.
Instead of allowing them this chance. Togo
closed in with his entire force. and when
darkness fell attacked the Russians with
his torpedo fleet and inflicted severe loss
upon them before driving them back to the
Inner harbor. He reports that the Russian
battle ship Peresviet destroyed and the
battle ship Sevastopol was disabled, while
cruiser Of the Diana class was seriously
damaged His own fleet was very slightly
injured
Just whether there is any connection be-
tween this attempt of the Russians to leave
progress Immediately north of that city
must be left to conjecture. 1t will certainly
be the wise course of the Russians to pre-
vent the capture OF their warships by either
the naval or land forces of the Japanese.
Whether they will accomplish this by the
mere destruction of the vessels at

Admiral Cervera at Santiago. remains to be
seen. The effort of Thursday TO escape
from the harbor suggests that the latter
will be their course. Certainly any enter
prise calculated to weaken the enemy, even
at the cost of a total loss of the whole
naval force at Port Arthur. would be the
best war policy on the part of Russia.
Some of the Russian reports have indi-
Gated that the besieging army in front of
Port Arthur had been materially weakened
by the reinfurcements sent to the aid of
the japanese commander at Nafangow, and
that tie assault upon the city had been
thereby postponed This effort of the fleet
to escape would seem 10 indicate that the
Russians in the beleaguered city do not feel
any sensible diminution of the pressure
from without. but rather anticipate an early
assault by land

keenly from the summer heat and insects.
He needs close attention and care. almost
as much as does his master. He needs his
frequent bath to keep his skin and coat
clean and fresh. If mutilated he is almost
as helpless before the attacks of flies as
his master would be with his hands ampu-
tated or tied.
The merciful man will attend to such
matters without being urged. To all others
the true friends Of the horse should per-
sistently press the case OF the suffering
animal. Let the neglectful horse owners
but put themselves in the place of their
patient dumb servitors. and they will soon
see the need If not the charity of adopting
humane methods. For the horse that Is Ill
treated In summer loses certain part OF
his value to his owner. just as surely as

lessons his own vitality and chances OF

Mr.. Cannon,

The country without regard to party will
hear with regret that Mr.. Cannon is under
the weather. But there is scarcely room
for surprise. He has been an exceedingly
busy man for the past seven months. and
obliged by reason Of his office and personal
popularity to participate In many social
functions The adjournment Of Congress
brought him little leisure Upon his return
nome he became a leading figure in the eff
forts for the pacification of the republican
factions, and he presided over the two try
ing state conventions held at Springfield
He was leading figure also at Chicago.
and the long siege has told on him. The sea
voyage proposed will probably however, set
him up again. His party will need him in the
campaign, and If he enters it in good physi-
cal FORM he Is likely to be the republican
star or the stump. AS vote catcher his
style of speaking is worth more than all
the studied rant of the professional rheto-
ricians.

dispatched promptly an evidence of the
vigorous measures which would follow a re-
fusal or failure to comply with the demand
for Perdicaris immediate release. The ne
gotiations proceeded slowly and disclosed
the utter decentralization of Moroccan af-
fairs and the intrigues of the European
governments for influence at Tangier and

danger that the bandit chieftain. Raisouli,
would Stay his captives rather than yield
from his demands modify the conditions
which he had imposed upon the release.
