RuMoR PORT ARTHUR FALLEN

DIV tiit ASHOCldlcu fTtoS,
London, July PA dispatch to
Reuters Telegram company from Wei
Hal Wei dated today says:
1T is supposed here that Port Ar
thur has been captured, as the British
fleet rs returning here tomorrow"
Presumably this report is from the
same source as the dispatch from
Shanghai, reporting the Wei Hal Wei
rumor that Port Arthur has fallen.
The only basis for the report known
here is that when Russia no longer oc.
cupies Port Arthur, the British, by
the treaty, will evacuate Wei Hal Wei,
and the inference Is the British feet
is returning to Wei Hal Wei to re-
move the stores, ETC., from that place.
Not much credence is attached for the
momnt to the Wei Hal Wei report,
though similar rumors are flooding
the continent.
