Action at
Port Arthur by
Russia
May Mean Decision
Of Cars Fleet to
Take Offensive

London, March 15.-The CORE
spondent of the Mail at New Chwang
says that after the removal of the
battleship RetviZan four Russian
steamers were ancnored at the mouth
of the entrance to Port Arthur and
sunk leaving only a small channel
available. Makaroff having previous
ly ordered the whole fleet tn remain
outside and steam up.
This dispatch, which is prominent
ly displayed by the Mail and which
the correspondent says is ION Rus
sian information" is, if true, news of
the first Importance, confirming the
idea that Makaroff will adopt the Of
fensive and make a desperate at
tempt to bring together Russia's
scattered naval forces or endeavor
to inflict damage upon the Japanese
navy. The story must. however, be
viewed cautiously, the only approach
to confirmation from any other quar-
ter being in a despatch from the cor
respondent of the Telegraph at Yin
kow. which merely says:
"Vice Admiral Makaroff has issued
orders to the effect that the saving of
coal is unnecessary, but that the big
gun ammunition in the forts must not
be wasted. Evidently this ammuni-
ton is running short"
The Mail thinks if Makaroff closed
the channel it was in order to pre-
vent the ingress of Japanese torpedo
boat destroyers, as was done at Wei
haiwei during the Chino-Japanese
war.
The Telegraph's correspondent
sends an unc0nfImed rumOr to the
effect that Japanese marines have
landed and occupied Dalny.
The Standards Toxic correspond
ent says that according to a dispatch
from Gen. San, the Russians are be
lieved to be Withdrawing from the
northeast frontier of Corea and con
centrating at Vladivostok.
To Keep England from interfering.
Paris March 15.-The st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Echo de
Paris quotes Gen. Kuropatkin as say
ing that France. Germany and Aus
tria have agreed with Russia to pre-
vent Great Britain intervening with
another Berlin treaty, adding Eve
viii never permit Great Britain to in
terfere for the purpose of depriving
us of fruits of dearly bought vic

THREE BANDITS
HANG APRIL z

Chicago, Marcn 15.-It is believed
that the car barn murderers. Van
Dine. Niedermeier and Marx will be
hanged on or before April %.
This estimate is furnished by court
officials who are convinced that the

a new trial Will not consume more
than fourteen days; that the motions
will be denied; that none of the three
bandits will succeed in perfecting an
appeal, and that when the court
passes sentence on the bandits he will
set the execution Cor three weeks la
ter.
Confronted by the certainty Of
death. Niedermeier and Marx have
resumed their Boosting. to make their
dime-aovel career more complete. Van
Dine. however, is reading religious
books and preparing to die. He does
no boasting: Niedermeier claims to
have killed twenty three men and
wounded seventeen others. Marx
places his list of victims Of five.
