in the first half the Minneapolis players had
the ball within ten yards Of the goal line, but
were unable to carry it over. 1t was lost once
on tumble behind the goalposts, which gave
touchback to the st. Paul team and they kicked
out from their 25-yard line. Minneapolis
fumbled, but held for two downs. Knoche chose
to kick and the kick was blocked, Lawler pass

With Vice Admiral Togo lowering In
the Immediate vicinity of Port Arthur
and transports loaded with troops lying
at Pltsewo, northeast of that strong
hold, Russia has braced herself for i'm
pending conflicts with the foe, in which
she will again play defensive role, this
time, 1t Is hoped, with better success,
and therefore with less sacrifice OF life
than in tho engagements on the Yalu.
The war commission sat until 2 o'clock
this morning, and ut the close OF the
session 1t was announced that there was
nothing to communicate to the public.
1t is known, however, that the Emperor
has been Informed OF the presence or a
Japanese fleet off the Lao Shan promon-
tory, and the appearance OF transports
at Pitsewo. The fact that the two events
occurred simultaneously have sgnifl-
cameo.
If landing should take place at Pit
sewo, 1t is Anticipated that Togo's bat
tleship squadron Will lombard Port Ar
thur In order to prevent the garrison
from sending reinforcements by railroad
to the troops opposing them there.
Neither tho admiralty nor tho war office
believes that a decentralization of tho
Japanese can be prevented, ms the guns
OF the Jappnese cruisers could command
the point Of landing; but after the
Japanese are ashore, then the Russians
will strike, and officers hero say, VIII
strike hard. What force they VIII be
able to bring up to resist the invaders
cannot be stated definitely. the strength
