ONAITACKlNGPORTAR ARTHUR
MILITARY STUDENTS BELIEVE
AssAPLT is IMMINENT.
Heavy Hombardment Of Russian Fort
usually Precedss strong Attack
Japanese Siege Works Are Com.
pIeted--They realize that Delay il
Too Profitable to Russians.

Chefoo. Sept. 19.--Local students OF
the military situation at Port Arthur,
basing their deductions upon recent
developments there, are Of the opinion
that another assault is either occur
ring at the present time or is i'm
minent. This opinion is based on the
very heavy bombardment of the Rus
sian stronghold that occurred on Sep
tember l6, for such a bombardment
forms the usual prelude to an assault;
on the arrival here of important mes
sengers from Port Arthur at a time
when the running of the blockade is
extremely perilous; on a recent au-
thoritative statement that the Japan
csc siege works are completed, and on
reports from Japanese sources that at
Port Dalny an assault was expected
to take place in few days. These
reports We're received last week.
In addition to the foregoing there is
the common knowledge that the Jap
anese realize that their continued in
activity increases the resisting power
of the Russian garrison and their con-
sequent desire is to make such a Pc
Rod Of Inactivity as brief as possible.
1t is asserted in a dispatch from
Toxic to the London Daily Press that
the Japanese are vigorously Smelling
the Russian defenses at Mukden, pre-
apratory to general assault, and en-
deavoring by wide turning move
ment to cut off General Kuropatkin's
retreat. The Japanese armies, the
dispatch adds, are disposed in the
same relative positions as in the fight
ing before Liaoyang.

Proposals to ordonez.

Buenos Ayres.-Advices received
here from Uruguay state that Basilio
Munoz. successor to General Saravia,
as the head of the revolutionary forces,
has written to President Ordonez OF
Uruguay, expressing his belief in the
futility of further bloodshed, now that
Saravia is dead, and asking the Presi-
dent to propose conditions of peace.

desiring a cessation of the struggle,
the government was not prepared to
make conditions, though 1t stood ready
to entertain reasonable proposals.

ENckE,s COMET NOW VISIBLE.
Famous Fiery Phenomena May Now
Be Seen.

Famous Fiery Phenomena May Now
Be Seen.
Encke's famous comet is now APP
preaching perihelion and is visible to
Inland Empire people with telescope.
This comet is famous In that 1t has
the shortest period of recurrence,
about three and on-fourth years. It is
named for Johann Franz Encke, Ger
man astronomer, who discovered the
remarkable shortness OF its period,
but the comet was really first observed
by Pons, the famous French astrono-
mer in Marseilles in 1878. 1t has APP
peared with great brilliancy on several
occasions. Astronomers say that 1t
will again describe the long fiery tail
resembling that Of a fish that has char
acterized its former appearances. It
is gradually getting nearer and nearer
the sun, and the general belief is that
it will one day fall into that body
and be consumed.
The comet at the present time is in
the southern part of the constellation
Cetus, rising above the southeastern
horizon at about 7:45 in the evening,
so that 1t is in good position for OBJ
servation about $3.50 p. M, but is not
visible without the aid of q telescope.
1t is slowly moving in a southwesterly
direction and will reach perihelion, or
make it's nearest approach to. the sun
January 8, 1906. 1t is noted as being
nearest the sun of all known comets,
as having the shortest period Of re-
currence lS.303 years., and as having
its period shortened from two hours to
two and one-half hours with each re-
turn to pehihelion.

SUBMARINE WINS A VICTORY.
Shark Gets Close Enough to Column
bia to Have Sunk Her.

Newport, r. 1.-The submarine tor
pedo boat Shark, which left here for
No Mans Land with the torpedo boats
Tingley and Winslow, returned later
and reported that she made success
full attack on the cruiser Columbia OF
the north Atlantic training squadron.
The Columbia, together with the Min
neapolis and Prairie, is engaged in tar
get practice of No Mans Land, and
the officers of the vessels had been APP
prised that an attack was to be made
by the torpedo boats, but it was not
known which of the warships would be
made the target. Just after dark,
while the searchlights of the three
warships were actively at work, the
Shark. commanded by Lieutenant G.
T. Nelson, succeeded in getting within
SO or SO yards of the Columbia and
was awarded a victory, having tech
nically sunk the cruiser.

Since he ceased to be foreign min.

Elopement With a Princess.

An incident that nearly wrecked
Prince Bismarck's career and that
caused the old chancellor annoyance
was Prince (then COUNT Herbert's
elopement with Princess Carolath
Beuthen, the wife of Prince Karl, the
head OF that distinguished Silesian
house. Prince Bismarck at that time
was his fathers private secretary.
Count Herbert lived with the princess
in southern Italy for few weeks, and
then. at the command of his father,
returned to Germany. The princess
was divorced and has since died.
The title of Prince Bismarck and
the large fortune of the deceased will
go to his seven year old son, Otto.
The late Emperor Frederick gave
to Chancellor Bismarck extensive at
Friedrichsruh, which have since in
creased in value, and the chancellor
gave to Prince Herbert $2,4O0,O00 in
securities and cash. The estate is now
estimated to be worth 100000.
