some two dozen daily at various times.
Sanitary arrangements before the
siege were good, and the barracks at
Sungshoo were roomy and healthful.
In fact the city was provided with
most modern improvements previous to
the Japanese attack.
No definite information can be gained
as to the number Of men now under
General Stoessel. Persistent reports
within the last two months have as
serted that the garrison amounts to less
than 10000. If this be the case the
siege has carried $4,000 men beyond
the hope Of aid from General Kuropat-
kin's feints southward from Mukden.
Stoessel began the defence with
these troops: The third, fourth and
seventh brigadcs of the East Siberian
rifles and the fifth regiment of the sec
ond brigade, all of whom were under
the command Of Generals FOck and
l<ondlachenko; the fifth, ninth, tenth,
eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, four
teenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, twenty
fifth, twenty sixth and twenty-seventh
East Siberian rifle regiments of infant
try; n division of East Siberian artil-
lery, and the Kwantung sapper COM
pany.
The opposing Japanese army under
General NOgi must have four or five
times as many troops, if he follows the
principle established for siegcs ut Ant
werp in 1882. This would place his
numerical strength at about 100000,
and it cannot be doubted that his army
has been kept up by additions, al
! though the secrecy Of the Japanese re-
garding the names and number of
their forces makes it impossible to con-
firm this supposition.
Knowing the resources Of the be.
leagucrcd city, the hostile movements
against it may be followed with
profit. The first engagements of the
war took place outside of Port Ar
thur harbor between theopposng fleets
and the result closed communication
from the water side, with the exception
of certain blockade runners, among
whom may be mentioned Prince Radzi-
will and the commander of the Ras-
toropny, who succeeded in getting the
latest dispatches through to st. Peters,
burg. The closing of the harbor has
been serious drawback to the Rus
slams, but it also released the sailors
to protect the operations at the land
positions.
These have been interesting. After
dead wood, in the shape of VicverOy
AleXeyeff's person, was got out Of the
way on February Is, General Stoesscl
took command and made an effort tC
forestall and meet attack by an ad
vance northward. The month of May
found his army dependent upon itself
and drawn up across the Kinchow
isthmus, about 40 miles north Of Port
Arthur. Admiral Makaroff had beer
killed by the destruction of the Petro
pavlosk, and Rear Admiral Prince Ukh
tomsky was in command of the nava
forces-and useless.
Left to himself General Stoessel had
to contend against Japanese troops

the end of the Tigers Tail. Singtse-
ying and Mantau are next in order to-
ward the mainland and Chingtau
stands at the junction of the Tail with
the Liaoti peninsula.
Besides these positions in the main
circle of forts, the Metre range lying
to the northwest of Else accomplished
the important duty of providing
against flank attack on the western
forts by force skirting Pigeon bay.
The loss of 2O3-Metre hill ON Decem-
Der gave the Japanese a position
G65,S feet high, from which the ship
ping in the harbor will be damaged, if
the Japanese can mount guns there in
the face of terrific enfilading fire.
The Chinese name of the Metre range
is Namakaoyama, consisting of several
hills named from their heights in me-
ters, and Fort Kuropatkin, whose cap
ture during the summer cut off Port
Arthur's water supply. The Russian
name Of the range is Visokaia
Altogether these positions mount 200
known guns, of which four are 3O-cen-
timeter caliber, seven are % calibcr. 81

are Is caliber and 4S are uick-firing.
The duties of the various positions
are as follows: The Golden Hill series
commands the Port Arthur approach
from the sea; the Ortung forts, whose
point of support is Petoushan Petou
HilD, and which is called by the Rus
slams the "Drakovy position" overlook
Takhe bay, protect the east, or Chinese
town from that direction and guard
against counter movements from the
/! rear against Keekwan and Golden Hill,
respectively on the north and south
the Keekwan series protects the east
town to the northward with their fire;
the Antse series (Sungshoo, Antse and
| Etse) is buttress for the new town,
and dominates the valley through
which the railroad enters the city and
in which the military headquarters
are, or were; the series running south
from Etseshan to White Wolf Hill pro-
tects the new town from the west and
from a naval enfilading fire from
Pigeon bay, as well guards the flank

manding the sea approach and could
send hostile enfilading fire into the
new town, so that it is General Stoes-
sells intention to occupy these positions
after all the others are taken.
Forts, however, are only the material
with which siege may be resisted.
When the prevalence of dysentery and
similar diseases in besieged towns is
recalled, the water supply will prob.
ably appeal to the reader as of prime
Importance. The Russians sunk arte-
sian wells on taking over the town
from the Chinese, so that their water
supply is unfailing and pure. Since
the actual investment Of the city on
July 30, the killing of live stock has
ceased, because of lack of shipments
but huge quantities of canned goods
were in the fortress. These are, in a
