THROWING UP EARTHWoRKs.
Russians Will Resist Jap Landing
Near Port Arthur.

st. Petersburg, March 24.-The cor
respondent of the Novi Krai of Port
Arthur, who is proceeding TO the Yalu
river, writes that he saw crowds of
Chinese coolies throwing up earth
works on the frowning, impregnable
heights at Kinchow, north of Port
Dalny. This shows that the Russians
are determined to resist the japanese
attempt to land on the neck of the
Liaotung peninsula.
The correspondent adds that the
Chinese officials. who had invariably
made official calls on the occasions
OF the Russian and Chinese New
Years, failed to do so this year, be.
lieving that the japanese are going TO
drive out the Russians.

RUSSIAN COMMANDER PREPARES
FOR NAVAL ENGAGEMENT
BUT NONE OCCURS.

st. Petersburg, March 24-Japanese
torpedo boats appeared off Port Arthur
at midnight of the night of March
21-22 and the shore batteries and
guardships shelled them for twenty
minutes
The Japanese retreated. but reap
peared four hours later, when they met
with the same reception, when they
retired again.
AT 6 a. m. Japanese squadron OF
two divisions, consisting of four and
eleven ships and accompanied by eight
torpedo boats, appeared and the Rus
sian squadron sailed out from the
outer roadstead to meet them.
AT 8 a. m. the Japanese battleships
having fired several shots at Lioa
tishin and sheltered behind the prom
Ontory, commenced a bombardment OF
Port Arthur.
The dispatches to the emperor from
Viceroy Alexieff and private infofma-
tion show that the Russians sustained
little damage, having only five soldiers
killed and ten wounded.
Jap BattIeship Struck.
Vice Admiral Makaroff claims that
one of the Japanese battleships was
struck by a shell.
1t is believed here that the reappear-
ance OF the Japanese fleet merely was
for the purpose of letting the Russians
know that the japanese remain III the
vicinity and thus causing the Rus
slams to stay at Port Arthur, and also
to cover Japanese landing operations,
When the first official dispatches
were received the belief gained ground
that Vice Admiral Makaroff had put 10
sea and that a naval fight had taken
place. While this would be in keep
ing with his character as an intrepid
officer, which is further indicated by
his use of cruiser as his flagship. it
was not in accordance with the plans
OF the Russian authorities
Later advices established the fact
that the admiral had simply gone with
the undamaged portion of his fleet TO
the outer roads. where he could more
effectively support the batteries and at
the same time take advantage of any
weakness which might develop in the
enemys attack

Russian troops have been landed there

Ii was admitted that this report

by Japan for five or six weeks. It is
said that the roads in Northern Korea

promised further showers unsettled
weather conditions being noted in all dis
tricts of the cotton region. Fears were
entertained lest there be too much rain.
European advices were of a bullish ma
ture, resumption of full time being prom
ised fer next week in the Oldham dis
trlct and It was cabled from Liverpool
that the continent was large buyer
there of new crop arrivals, which was
also the case in America. Manchester

expected to be very bearish and in an

deeming feature of the report for longs.
