London, Feb. GA dispatch to a
news agency from St. Petersburg says
the official report of Major General
Plug, chief of staff of Viceroy Alexief,
Oh the details of the attack on Port Ar
thur during the morning of February
25th is as follows:
THE enemy's squadron of sixteen
warships approached from the Dalny
side toward the harbor of Port Arthur
about II o'clock this morning, and at
once opened fired on our three cruisers
outside the roadstead. namely, the Ask
old, the Bayan and the Novik, and
also against the land forts. The bonn
bardment lasted half an hour. At the
conclusion our cruisers retired into the
harbor. The enemy then bombarded
one land battery for several minutes.
Then the enemy also retreated, remain

I'm the meanwhile. four Japanese
cruisers separated from the enemy's
main squadron and went Into Golubins-

on one of our torpedo boats stationed

of the fort sent troops to this point,
but no landing took place. The COM

Japanese cruisers retreated. The loss
on our side this day was one man
wounded in one of the land batteries.

JAPANESE FLEET ATTACKS PORT ARTHUR.
KUROPATKIN WANTS FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND MEN

The surprising and almost astound-
ing latest news is that General Kuro-
patkin will not go to the front as was
previously announced in three days
time, but not for several weeks. The
reason for this, is that 1t is not worth
while for him to go there until 400. 900
Russian soldiers are gathered at the
seat of war. In fact, he cannot take
the offensive until that number is
forthcoming. The present force avail
able outside of the heavy contingent
guarding the railroad does not exceed
100000 men.
General Kuropatkin, 1t Is remem-
bered. was recently in Japan. where
he formed n very high opinion of the
efficiency of the Japanese troops. 1t
may also be recollected that he be-
longs to the anti-war party. At a re-
cent audience with the Emperor. Gen
eral Kuropatkin spoke very openly
about the necessity OF his having a
large number of troops, and he is fur
ther credited with having said: your
majesty will need me back soon to
look after European developments"
and very propably the key to this Is
given in the statement OF a widely
known Russian international jurist,
who says it is quite possible that Rus
sa will wage war concerning the Thi-
betan question. but with Thibet the
only ostensible cause to be used in
case England should make any move
of too friendly nature toward Japan.

FRANCE EXPECTS
RETURN OF PEACE

Paris, Feb. 2S.-Reports of interna-
tional entanglements growing out of
the war continue to occupy promi-
nent place in the sensational press.
But within n week the officials OF
the government who are in close and
constant touch with the cabinets OF
other capitals, have satisfied them
selves. first that no international COM
plications are imminent, or likely at
least for the present; second, that
France is in no present or prospective
danger of being embroiled in any In
ternational complications.
The recent bourse panic brought
about a rather thorough survey of the
situation throughout Europe. as the
heavy decline in securities resulted
mainly from fears that the European
powers might be drawn into the con-
tlict.
The inquiries disclosed that. while
the possibilities OF unexpected compli-
cations are always present, there is no
immediate reason to expect European
complications. the military activities
at various points being the natural re-
suit of war between two great powers.
Concerning the ability of France to
hold aloof from the war, the officials
base their belief on the experience Of
the first few weeks of the hostilities.
At first the determination to observe
neutrality brought out sentimental
reaction favorable to Russia, %ith pop
ular demonstrations and subscriptions
in behalf of that country.
The authorities have now been able
to take into account all the various
currents, the result being firm con-
viction that France will not have her
hand forced by international agitation
or external complications.

Russians Badly Alarmed.

New York. Feb. 27.-The Herald pub
lishes the following from its St. Peters
burg correspondent:
After days OF anxious waiting for
news the people here have at last set
tied down to the idea that 1t is useless
to expect tidings from the seat of war
for some time-weeks at the least.
That is the official intimation.
The men OF the moment, General
Kuropatkin and Admiral Makaroff, will
probably not reach the seat of war for
a month, and operations. on land al
least, are not likely. that is. as far as
Russian desires are concerned. to com
mence until General Kuropatkin has
had time to thoroughly take in and
sum of the situation.
AS has previously been indicated
there is great probability that the Jap
anese may avail themselves of the very
state of unpreparedness in which the
Russians find themselves to hurry on
their military operations.
This is much feared here. The result
of what might happen under such cir
cumstances hangs as nightmare over
Russia's peace of mind. Meanwhile
all are hoping fervently that the Jap
anese will stay their hands.
Russia is pushing her military prep
artions, tardy though they be, with the
utmost haste. but single railway line
and not very strongly laid one al
that, forbids an enormous traffic being
sent along, for the line will neither
stand great weights nor high speed
Even with the greatest care. it is rec
ognized that breaks on the road are tc
be numerous.
Lake Baikal so far has proved the
weak spot on the line. There has beer
great delay in getting the much-desiret
rails laid over the ice.
Owing to the cold there is a very
large demand for felt. which is largely
used in lining the wagons in which sol
diers are conveyed. The price has gone
up from 20 kopecks to l ruble so ko
pecks per archin. The price of proyis'
ions is going up all along the line ant
especially does meat command higf
rates.
