The other, if not already on shore, will

ARE SHY OF LAND BATTERIES
Russian Naval and Military Experts
Confess Themselves Mystihed BY
the Movements of the
Japanese.

st. Petersburg, March 11-2:45 D. m.
Up to this hour no further news is
obtainable of the bombardment of Port
Arthur, which was progressing, &C
cording to the latest advices. at s a. m.
Whatever later information, if any,
the emperor may have is not known.
Military and naval circles are mysti-
fled at the purpose of the appearance
OF Japanese torpedo boats during the
previous night, as it was not accompa-
MED by a serious attempt upon the
Russian ships. The bombardment of
the fleet from a position off the Lao
Tishin promontory, which is five to
six miles from Golden Hill, at the en-
trance of the harbor, is believed to in
dictate that the Japanese were afraid
to risk a frontal attack under the guns
OF the land batteries. 1t is considered
doubtful whether any of the guns of
the Russian batteries command the To-
cation from which the Japanese were
firing. 1t is pointed out that dropping
shells into the harbor and town even
in fun, is accompanied by danger, and
this haphazard work is applicable per-
haps only on the theory that it was
meant Is a diversion to cover more
serious operations elsewhere. Still.
some of the experts here declare their
belief that the only object of the Japan
was keep the garrison and fleet wor-
ried.

CAPITAL FOR PHILIPPINES
Secretary of War Taft Holds Con-
ference in New York.
Capital to the Islands In Order
to Develop Railroad Facilities.

New York, March 11.--Wm. H. Taft,
and had a prolonged conference with
several men prominent in railroad and
financial matters, including Sir Will
lam C. VaLHorn, chairman of the
board of the Canadian Pacific railroad;
Vice-President Turnbull Of the Guar
antee Trust Co.; E. r. Hartman, presi-
lent of the Union and Southern Pacific
railways; George Peabody, Lindon w.
Bates, Miner Green, a railroad build
err; Col. Edwards, chief of the bureau
of insular affairs; James Speyer and
Charles H. Tweed, of Speyer & Co.
The representatives of the Speyer
firm were with the secretary for an
hour and a half. The conference was
held in the Office of Former Secretary
of Wal Root.
After the conference Secretary Taft
said that it had been called to consider
the possibilities of steam, and electric
railroad development in the Philippines,
and that no conclusion had been
reached.
There gentlemen have been here at
my invitation to talk over the condi-
ton which may attract capital to the
| Philippines We want to get capital
to go over there and help develop the
islands"
Asked what was the disposition of
the capitalists he had seen, the secre-
tary laughingly replied:
"Well, l must say they are not biting
quite as hard as we would like. Still,
some of them have displayed interest
He admitted that the purpose OF the
conference was to get information for
use in framing laws regarding fran
chises which would give the Philippine
commission here powers, looking to the
proper development of the islands.
This information We have been get
ting Thursday is to be used in drafting
the bills that may be put before con-
gress." He said there was no desire
to make the concessions too liberal. 1t
is not intended to limit development In
the Philippines to these industries. 1t
was first the intention to confer on
steamship routes and lines too, but it
was decided not to do this Thursday.
Mr.. Taft, who left for Washington
Thursday night, said he would make a
report on the subject to Il congressional
committee Saturday next. ]. j. Hill,
president of the Northern Pacific, was
to have attended the conference, but he
was in the south.
