THE Cannibal King" because he
mud over his face to act as a
sun shade. His position with Hender-

two naval battles, in both Of which
Japan was the victor, q slight bonn
bardment Of Port Arthur, and the
landing Of troops by japan at Chemul
pc and Masamphon, Korea, to march
overland to the Yalu river and meet
Russa's Siberian forces.
Stories OF the bombardment of Hak
odate and the destruction OF japanese
transports by the vladivostok fleet
have been proved unfounded. In the
torpedo action Of the japanese at Port
Arthur, Russias navy lost at least
three large vessels. which were disa-
bled. In the Chemulpo engagemeY
two large ships were sunk. The jap
anese have lost little, but it is report
ed that one of their wsrships sank Off
Port Arthur.
The loss Of life has been small on
both sides. The most severe fatality
was the accidental blowing up of the
Russian torpedo transport, Yenesei, at
Port Arthur, while laying mines,
