Fourth Attack on Port Arthur.

The fourth attack Of the Jap
anese upon Port Arthur is des
cribed in the followinw special
from Toxic, March 18th. Off
cial and private reports indicate
that Admiral Togo's fourth at
tack on Port Arthur on the 10th
instant was the most effective
since the first assault of a month
ago. One Russian torpedo boat
destroyer was sunk and several
Russian torpedo boat destrOyers
seriously damaged. The forti
fications and city were subject
ed to heavy bombardment
lasting nearly four hours. The
naval bombardments of the land
. works have generally been in
reflective, yet the peculiar topo.
graphical conditions of Port
Arthur make immunity from
serious loss from bOmbardment
almost impossible. Admiral
Togo's torpedo fotilla opened
the action by boldly steaming
in under the batteries and sue
cessfully placing a number of
mechanical mines at the mouth
of the harbor. Following that
there was a desperate bow to
bow encounter between the tor
pedo boat destroyers, in which
the japanese appear to have
scored a clear victory. Then
followed a long range duel be,
tween the cruisers, ending i'm
. the retirement Of the Novik and
Bayan, the only Russians en-
gagged.
The closing action was the
bOmbardment of the inner har-
Dor by. the Japanese battleships
The latter took position south
west of Port Arthur and used
'only their twelve inch guns in
the squadron of six battleships
and each gun was fired five
rounds, making a total Of 100
huge projectiles that were fired
at the city. The bombardment
was deliberate and carefully
planned. In order to aid in per
fecting the firing Admiral Togo
stationed the cruisers in a posi-
ton due east of the entrance to
the harbor and at right angle
to the battleships. The cruis-
ers observed the range and eff =
feet of the firing and signalled
the results and suggestions by
wireless telegraphy.
