Toxic, Dec. 1.-The emperor for.
mally opened the second war diet dur.
Ing the day. He rode through the
crowded streets in state coach, es-
corted by troop of lanciers and ac-
companied by the crown prince, his
staff and some members of the impe-
rial household to the house of parlia-
ment, where both houses were assem-
bled in the chamber of representa-
tives. The diplomatic corps and many
prominent government officials were
present.
The emperor ascended the dias, from
which he read the following address:
1--WE hereby perform the ceremony
Of opening the imperial diet and an.
nounce to the members of the house
of peers and house of representatives
that to their profound delight our rela.
tions with all the neutral powers are
continually growing more amicable.
I'VE have directed our ministers of
state to submit to you a scheme for
meeting the extraordinary expendi-
lures necessitated by the war, together
with the budget for the thirty-eighth

st. Petersburg. Nov. 28.-General
Kuropatkin telegraphs a description
of Japanese attack on Nov. "a
against a Russian detachment near
Esinkhetchen (Yensienten?) on the
front of the left flank. "The fighting"
General Kuropatkin says. was fierce,
almost amounting to a bayonet en-
gagement; but the enemy were every
where repulsed and suffered severely.
The attack was renewed the following
morning, the Japanese having been
reinforced, but again was repulsed, and
at 4 O'Clock in the afternoon bliz-
zard and fog greatly hindered artil.
lery fire. The Japanest continued to
advance under cover of the fog, but
our forces held their positions, and
the firing subsequently slackened.
The Russian losses were nine killed
and fifty-seven wounded.
"On Nov. 26, the Japanese resumed
the offensive and endeavored to en-
velope our left flank whilst advancing
against our center.
II have received no later reports. -
General Kuropatkin also describes
the bayonetting of twenty japanese
belonging to a patrol during recon
noissance the night of Nov. 25.
