JAPs MASTERS OF LIAo-TUNG.

London, May 1S.-The Daily Tele-
graphs New Chwang correspondent,
cabling under date of May II, says:
''The Japanese with a large fleet of
transports and warships appeared at
Kai- -Chau yesterday morning and
opened a terrific bombardment
against the shore defences, which
were silenced by o'clock in the af-
ternoon, the Russians retreating to
Tashichao. The Japanese troops
landed and are advancing rapidly,
outfenlling Tashichao and New
Chwang."
st. Petersburg, May 1S.-Advices
received by the general staff show
that the Japanese are practically
masters of all the southern end of
the Lio-Tung peninsula, save Port
Arthur and the territory commanded
by its guns. This result, so promptly
brought about, is due to the failure of
the Russians to make opposition of
any consequence to the Japanese ad-
vance.
New Chwang, May 1S.-The Rus
Sian evacuation of this city has been
completed. Nothing remains but the
destruction of the gunboat Sivouch.

RUSSIANS ARE oUTNUMeERED.

London, May 17.-In the absence of
actual news from the seat of war in
the far east, London newspapers com
ment on what is believed to be the
precarious position of Gen. Kuropat-
kin. The Standard, which is rather
inclined to be pro-Russian in it's
views, admits that Kuropatkin has at
his disposal south of Mukden at most
100000 troops of inferior quality, only
$4,000 of whom are available for Mill
tary operations, while Gen. Kuroki
certainly has 10000 first class troops,
the equal of those in European armies.
London, May 1.-THE Shanghai
correspondent of the Morning Post
says that according to a native report
from Port Arthur the Japanese are
vigorously besieging the fortress night
and day by land and sea.
