night published series of extended reports
covering operatiOns against Port Arthur to the
end of July The reports cover the operations
between the battle of Nan-Shan, May 70. and
the actual investment of Port Arthur, which be-
gan on July 30.
The reports are chiefly interesting as showing
that the Russians desperately resisted the Jap
anese advance southwark along the peninsula.
Indeed. the Russians assumed the aggressive
during July. and attempted to drive the Jap
anese back and retake Dalny. The Russians
erected an elaborate series Of fOrtifCations on
the hills skirting the eastern coast. and also
along the railroad. by means Of which they de-
layed the actual Investment of Port Arthur two
full months.
Many desperate encounters marked the slow
advance of the Japanese southward early in
June. The Russians erected works east Of

London, Oct. 10-The new phase of the war

Gently, the Russian plan Of campaign was repre-
sented 70 he TO draw the Japanese northward
in order 20 attenuate their communications and
hence there is greater surprise at what is con-
sidered remarkable order.
Various reasons are advanced by the critics
as having possibly actuated Kuropatkin: FIRST
that Japanese inactivity led him 70 SUPPOSE that
he stronger numerically; second. that in
trigues connected with the appointment of a
new commander in chief may have determined
Kuropatkin TO precipitate matters. and third
and according to the English critics. by far
most acceptable explanation. that he again has
been overruled from st. Petersburg and is act
