RUSSIANS LACK NEWS.
No AdUices from Peninsula-The
Increment South.

St Petersburg, June S.-The government. 1t is
suthoritatively said tonight, has more in
formation than the public Of happenings in the
neighboThood of Port Arthur. The lack OF Of
hcial news from Southern Liao-Tung bred the
usual number OF rumors yesterday, among them
the reports from Che-Foo and elsewhere that the
Russian squadron had made sortie from Port
Arthur. and that the japanese had begun land
attack upon the fortress.
The general staff could neither confirm nor
deny these stories any more than similar ones
in the last forty-eght hours 1t was pointed
out, however that while preliminary Smelling
OF the land defences of Port Arthur was not i'm
probable, ii was too early 10 expect news OF
serious assault which could not be pressed with
any prospect Of success until siege guns had
been landed at Dalny, brought overland twenty
miles. emplaced. and all the arduous preliminary
work OF systematic advance against the outer
works Of Port Arthur completed.
81. Petersburg. June while It is undoubt-
edly true that a very active Russian force is
operating on the Liao-Tung Peninsula in the
hope Of impeding and possibly Gripping the
Japanese army commanded by General Oku the
number and character OF this force are shroud-
ed in mystery. Figures are freely banded about
but It is impossible to ascertain the facts It
is doubtful even if the general staff Is fully adj
vised OF General Kuropatkin's intentions. Ac-
coroing 20 accepted stories here, Viceroy Alexie.
insisted that Kuropatkin should not leave Port
Arthur 20 its fate, and the advance Of troops
may be due 10 his pressure.
Two thirgs are certain-the strength OF the
main army at Liao-Yang has not been appre-
ciahly weakened by the force sent south. and the
movement was not ordered by Emperor Nicho-
las The Associated Press is assured by a men,
Der OF the Emperor's suite that the stories that
the differences between Viceroy Alexef and
General Kuropatkin on this subject were re-
ferred 70 the Emperor. who In turn submitted
them to the Council OF War which agreed on
the adyisability Of ordering an advance are
absolutely false. The informant reiterated the
statement. made on June 3. that the Emperor
is not attempting TO impose his views upon
kuTopatkin, saying, further that the EN-
peror considered that the military situation has
distinctly improved I'm regard 10 the future.

PORT ARTHUR WELL SUPPLIED.
Vladivostok Stores Sent to Fortress-New
Gold Field on the Amoor.

Vladivostok. June Gail is quiet here. It can
be stated that Port Arthur is abundantly sup
piled with provisions and munitions of war
The bulk Of the supplies there was sent
from here before communication was cut off
Vladivostok not weakened by sending
these supplies. and there is plenty of everything
remaining here except sugar. Kerosene also is
scarce among the civilians, but the quantity on
hand is adequate for the needs OF the garrison
Trade with the interior is improving. A train of
ten cars laden with miscellaneous goods is dis
patched daily The railway is open and the
traffic in ordinary freight is considerable
Much excitement has been caused by the re-
ported discovery Of gold near the mouth of the
Amoor River. Several hundred prospectors have
already gone there and others are starting
