BATTLE UNDER PORT ARTHUR.
japanese Lose Heavily Ia Trying to Capture
Galleries Under Meats.

Headquarters Third japanese Army
in the Field, before Port Arthur, via
Fusan (By Cable).-By a general at
tack on the eastern fortified ridge on
October 80 the japanese gained the
moats of the principal forts assaulted.
These were wider, deeper and
stronger than had leen supposed, and
were defended by caponieres or gal
leries running NORTH of the Keekwan
forts. The galleries were captured
after desperate fighting under ground.
The Russians still hold parts of the
moats, but the Japanese are engaged
in sapping to dislodge them, after
which the capture of the forts should
be easy.
The casualties on the japanese side
in this engagement were 1000.
The casualties in the attack of the
Japanese on the EASTERN fortified ridge
on October 80 were 1900. 1t was an
unsuccessful assault The powerful
East Keekwan Fort was gained, but
the Russians were reinforced and
drove the Japanese down to the foot
of the hill. The Japanese are now
sapping toward the crest of the hill
The capture of this fort would give
the Japanese the key to the eastern
fortified range, as artillery mounted
there would dominate the forts in
front of the ridge and enable the
Japanese to place infantry in a posi-
ton to sweep the ridge.

POSITION NOT TO HIS LIKING.
Commissioner Of Pensions Ware Resigns
Will Return to the Law.

Washington, D. c. (SpeciaD =
Commissioner of Pensions Ware ten
dered his resignation to the Presi-
dent, and it was accepted, to take eff
feet January I.
When seen Commissioner Ware re-
fused to discuss his action in any
way except to state that the newspa-
pers of the county had been resign
ing" him for the past two years. For
at least one year, however, it has
been definitely known that Mr. Ware
would retire from his office soon after
the fall elections and return to his
home, in Kansas, to resume his law
practice. 1t is believed here that
Commissioner Wares action was not
due to any suggestion that the sew
erance of his relations with the Pen
sion Office would be agreeable to the
President. On the contrary, it has
been no secret that Commissioners
Ware, soon after assuming his duties
found the duties of his office distaste-
full to him and that this distaste stead
lily increased. There is no intimatior
as to who his successorSw will be.
