opinion Is that Stevenson is endeavor-
ing to break into the ranks Of the
Whitman county delegation for votes
against the railroad commission bill.
'The effort of Stevenson to
break into Whitman county is sur
prising to politicians here because Of
the strong platform which the Whit
man county republicans adopted on
the commission question.
The attempt of Stevenson to secure
votes In Whitman county is looked
upon as an indication that the claim
of the railroads that they control the
senate is hot air and that they are

JAPs AGAIN ATTEMPT
TO BOTTLE UP RUSSIAN FLEET.
Their Fireships Are Discovered and
Sunk by Torpedo Boats and Land
Batteries.

According to advlces from ST.
Petersburg. Vice Admiral Togo made
another desperate attempt TO block
the entrance to Port Arthur Monday
night. but failed.
Viceroy Alexlcff reported officially
that the Japanese sent eight FIRE ships
To block the entrance. but they were
all sunk by the Russian torpedo boats
and the fire from the land batteries,
leaving the channel clear The vice
roy also reported that the Russians
sank two Japanese torpedo boats.
The fire ships were discovered by
soarchlights Of the batteries and
guard ships. creeping toward Port
Arthur from the east and southeast.
shortly after midnight The torpedo
boats and torpedo boat destroyers
were ordered out, but none OF the
larger warships. Admiral Alexleff
himself went ON board the coast de-
Tense vessel otvashni. The guard
ships at the entrance of the harbor
and the forts opened fierce FIRE on
the FIRE boats, which lasted until
o'clock in the morning, when the last
Ere ship went down.
The official report does not specify
the exact spot where the steamers
were sunk but II is plain that the
Japanese attempt TO cork the entrance
To Port Arthur has again failed. The
steamers were armed with Hotchklss
and Maxim guns and responded hot
ly TO the Russian fire. The Russians
succeeded In saving n few members Of
the fire ships, including two officers
