TORPEDO BOATS DESTROYED
RUSSIANS AND JAPANESE GO AT
EACH OTHER ON WATER.
Zach Side Lost a Boat -Japs lombard
ment at Port Arthur Was Terrific
Some Fort Guns Siienced - Smoke
Seen to II afse rom the City-Num-
Der of Lives Lost.

Mukden, March ia Admiral Ma
karoff, commanding the Russian fleet,
reports from Port Arthur as follows:
"Six torpedo boats, which went to sea
encountered the enemy's torpedo boats,
followed by cruisers. A hot cotton en-
sued, in which the torpedo boat des-
troyer Vlastini discharged a torpedo
and sank one of the enemy's boats. On
the way back the torpedo boat destroyer
Stereguschtchi sustained damages, her
engine being disabled and she began to
founder. BY clock in the morning
five of our torpedo boat destroyers had
returned.
"When the critical position of the
disabled boat became evident, hoisted
my flag on the cruiser Novik and went
with the Novik and the cruiser Boya-
rim to the rescue. But as five of the
enemy's cruisers surrounded our de-
stroyer, and as their battleship squad
ron was approaching, did not succeed
in saving her. She t1oudered and part
of the crew were made prisoners and
part were drowned.
ION the ships which participated in
the night attack one officer was SER
iously wounded and three others were
slightly wounded; two soldiers were
killed and ~ were wounded.
"At 8 O'Clock ID of the enemy s
ships assembled before Port Arthur and
bombardment was began with heavy
guns of their battleship squadron at
long range.
"This lasted until O'Clock in the
afternoon. 1t is estimated that the
enemy fred 1874 10 inch shells. The
damage to our vessels was insignificant
and they are again ready for battle.
Our losses were one officer slightly
wounded, one soldier killed and four
wounded.
1.-THE illumination Of the sea at
night by the searchlights was most sat
isfaotory, and several times shots from
our batteries forced the enemy's torpe-
edo boats TO retire.
with the commencement of the
bombardment at dawn the guns of the
fortress replied to the enemy's fire.
THE crews of all the ships engaged
gave proof of remarkable GOODNESS in
action. Below decks the work of the
day followed its ordinary course, in
spite Of the shells falling between the
vessels and covering them with frag-
ments.
"a bombardment at such a distance
must be regarded as ineffective, but the
japanese cruiser Takasago is reported
to have been seen to suffer serious dam
age, the extent of which, however,
was impossible to ascertain at dis
lance of five miles. Many shells fired
at long range of seven and half
miles.
