Russian Warships at Port

ed and that only the torpedo boat de-
StrOycrs remain.
According to unofficial reports the
crews Of all the Russian war vessels

parently no effort was made TO move
the vessels. The Japanese have now
turned their attention to the torpedo
boat destrOyerS, and when these have
been destroyed the guns will be di-
rected against steamers and transports
in the harbor.
Mukden adviceS say that the Rus.
slams continue TO lombard the Japa-
nese positions with both heavy and
light artillery. The japanese response
is feeble.
The Russians have experienced much
difficulty with their shfdpuei, which
should have eGcctually checked the
japanese attacks during the battle of
Shakhe, but failed in many eases.
Some Of the cOnsiguments of shrapnel
sent to the front appear to have been
