Sensational Denouemept.

Lisbon, Nov A sensational case,
with an equally sensational denouement,
has stirred Portuguese court circles.
A well known Portuguese baroness
recently sued her husband fer separation
on the ground of prodigality. When the
trial opened it was discovere that the
baroness herself was not guiltless. Her
amours with Heading actor were brought
to light. The baroness at once fled to
Paris, while the actor was arrested.
The great wealth and beauty of the
baroness, who is but 25 years of age,
and the conspicuous position of the
couple in the best society, has caused
a great scandal.

Two musketeers we're recently charged
at Dessau with rioting and assaulting a
superior officer This officer, Sergeant
Heine, entered a dancing saloon, intoxi-
Gated. and iostled and insulted the
wives Of the musketecrs, who, on pro-
testing. we're attacked by him with drawn
sword. They wrested the weapon from
him, tor which the prosecution asked
that they be sentenced to five years at
hard labor, dismissal from the army and
loss of civil rights. When the prisoners
counsel asked whether it was cOntended
that soldiers had no right to act in self
defense the prosecutor answered: "Selt-
defense is a conception which does not
exist in the relations between soldiers
add their superiors. 1t is absolutely
necessary that a soldier should allow
himself, if necessary, to be Slaughtered
by an officer, though the latter be max
ing illegal use Of his weapon" The
court pronounced sentence as demanded.
Germany is military country in which
direction the United States is rapidly
drifting, though the people have their
eyes wide open.

Desperate Eighiinp.

Desperate fighting at Port Arthur con-
tinues. AT japanese Imperial headquar-
tiers, at TokiO, the announcement was
made last night that a general assault
was made Saturday afternoon upon the
Sungshd Mountain forts, but the Rus
slams stubborn resistance prevented the
japanese accomplishing their object.
Trained bodies of swordsmen, led BY Gen.
erals and Nakamura Saito, charged int e
several forts and engaged the Russiau4
in bloody band-to-hsnd fighting.
Simultane )usIy with the latest general
assault at Port Arthur, Marshal Oyama's
forces in Manchuris Saturday began a
movement 20 envelop the Russian left
flank aud attack the Russian center.
General Kuropatkin, in a report to the
Russian War Office yesterday, said he
had received no later reports of these
operations, but he also reported an at.
tack on the front Of the Russian left
flank near Yenslenten on November "a,
which he said was repulsed. The Jap
auese renewed the attack on Friday in =
blizzard and then advanced under COW
er of a fog.
1t appears from the Russian command
er-in-chiePs reports that the JapaLese
have at last begun general movement
which is likely to develop into another
desperate engagement and determined
advance Of Marshal Oyams's forces
upon Mukden.
Premier Katsura, of Japan, in discuss

man and our last cent. Russia must see
that the war cannot be concluded by tho
issue of a lew battles. With us the war
