PROGRESS or RUSS0- JAPANESE WAR;
Latest Dispatches Show That Japs Are
 Still B0mbarding Port Arthur.

St. Petersburg. June 9, via St. Michael, June TIA dispatch from Lao Yang states that Chinese bring news that the Japanese June 2nd attacked Port Arthur by land and sea, but repused with loss of $500 and four vessels Judging from accounts given by the Chi it torpedo boats that destroyed Other dis patches give of great naval battle between the fleets in the Gulf of Pechil and definite report of bombardment in Liao Tung gulf Ka Ping, which may
 oreshadow Japanese landing there for the purpose of cutting the railroad back of the Russian troops operating around Waandian. It is considered strange here that this movement has been deferred long, as until now, New Chwang and the division of Kuropatkn have had railroad communication with all China.

A FIRE IN THE
 TENDERL0|N

Monday evening about II o'clock an alarm from box 24 called the fire de- partment to one of the shacks in the tenderloin district at the rear of the Northern saloon, where slight fire had been started by an electric light wire from which the insulation had been worn, or burned away. The fire amounted to practically nothing, but the woman occupant of the shack was nearly electrocuted.
 The wire parted and fell from the ceiling, the insulated portion striking her on the back and head, burning away a portion of her hair, and leaving its mark for nearly the full length of her back in severe burn. It is said that she received one hundred and ten volts, from the effects of which she was unconscious for long time. She will recover.

 Our retreat is being carried out under heavy pressure and with the Japanese on our heels. The task is additionally dif- ficult owing to the terrible condition of the roads, and the rivers, which are flooded.
 'The fighting has now been almost con- tinuous since August 24, and how much longer 1t will last. it is impossible to say as the initiative is in the hands of the Japanese.
 'The number of lives sacrificed and the loss of supplies by burning, bridges blown up etc. can only be explained when we once more have concentrated, and this will occupy us for some days
 Do not be under any mlsapprehension; we will live through these heavy days and still more alarming nights, for de- spite recent failures, we have steadfast faith in the future, and the spirit of the troops is unyielding.
 There are numberless stories of hero ism, collective and individual which It Is impossible to relate by wire.
