Great Rejoicing in Toxic,

Toxic. June 26.-Tokio is in a fren-
zy Of enthusiasm over the tremendous
naval victory won by the Japanese
fleet under Admiral Togo at Port Ar
thur on Thursday, fresh details of
which are arriving hourly.
Every additional dispatch brings
confirmation of the utter rout suffered
by the Russians.
The entire fleets of both powers
were engaged. and a naval battle that
will live in history was fought in tho
gathering twilight Thursday night
The engagement resulted from a
desperate attempt of the Russians to
escape from Port Arthur and effect a
junction with the Vladivostok squad
ron.
The most thrilling gallantry was dis
played. The Russians also fought with
courage and desperation born of re-
peated defeats, but their gun practice
was bad, which accounts for the tritling
damage which the Japanese ships sus-
tained during the engagement.
Shells from the Russian ships CON
stantly exploded in the air, or in the
water just too short Of the mark or
just beyond the enemy's ships.
II was the torpedo boats of the Jap
anese fleet that inflicted the greatest
damage. A torpedo struck the PereS-'
Wet midway in the engagement, and in
five minutes later, with a roar like an
exploding magazine, she sank beneath
the waves.
A well placed shell STRUCK the other
battleship. the name Of which has not
yet been ascertained, just after the
boiler. and put her ont of commission.
The cruiser was hit by a torpedo and
disappeared toward Port Arthur. ap
parently in a sinking condition.
Meanwhile the smaller guns on the
Japanese ships were spreading havoc
among the torpedo boats Of the en-
emy.
For more than five hours the battle
lasted. The moon rose over the scene
OF the terrific struggle and showed a
blurred and REDEEMED face among the
flame and smoke Of the conflict.
Slowly the Russians backed away
from the Japanese ships, describing
great loops to keep out of range. and
with difficulty making the entrance TO
Port Arthur into which they retreatcd
under cover Of the guns Of the fort
resS.
The ships Of the Japanese sustained
stroyer Shrakumo was hit by a shell
which fell in the cabin and thre2 men
were killed and three more injured.
These were the only casualties on
board the Japanese feet ,

Garment Workers Strike.

New York. June 29.-Leaders in the
strike of garment workers declare the
tie-up to be complete and estimate the
number of persons out at $4,000 to
10000. In day or two 10000 finishers
mostly Italian women who take the
work home, will be added to the ranks
of the idle.
In whatever way the trouble may
end, it is the biggest clothing strike
that New York has seen for at least
six years. Since the last big strike
the population and the business have
enormously increased, and it Is esti-
mated that there are at least 10000
more clothing workers in the city than
there were six years ago. No wage de-
mani has been made. the stfike Aeing
