PREFER DEATH TO CAPTURE.
Stories of Unparalleled Heroism
Told by Japs.


Port Arthur, May 6.-The Japanese
displayed desperate courage in their
fire-ship attack on the nignt of Tues
day. The ships, as they approached,
were divided into three groups, all
heading straight for the entrance Of
the harbor.
While still far from the shore they
ran on the Russian mines and they
were under murderous fire from the
Russian batteries.
Three torpedo boats followed the
fre-ships TO pick up the crews Of
the latter. When the first ship
floundered the crew clambered up the
mast cheering for the emperor of ia
pan as they went down.
From the masthead of the second
vessel, as she began to sink, her crew
waved lanterns to indicate her course
to those astern. Their small boats,
though soon riddled, did not raise the
white flag
A Japanese sailor, who came ashore
at Electric Hin, when summoned to
surrender, sprang forward with a re
yolyer in his hand and died fighting
Another Japanese sailor, who was
pulled out of the water, tried to throt
tie himself with his necktie.
One of the Russian row boats
which approached a sinking ship fol
the purpose of saving her crew wa!
met by a small arm fire.
The Russian sailors showed ever!
consideration for the Japanese cap
