Russians Hold Their Ground Well and
Troops Of the Mikado
Retreat.

St. Petersburg, March 22.-Another
attack by the Japanese fleet at Port
Arthur, beginning with operations by
torpedo boats and ending with Il bonn
bartlmcnt by battleship and cruisers.
took place between midnight OF last
night and this morning.
The dispatches to the Emperor from
Ficeroy Alexien and private Informal
ticn show that the Russians sustained
no damage and had only five soldiers
killed and 10 wounded.
Vice Admiral Makarorf claims that
one of the japanese vessels was struck
by a shell.
The Emperor received tie first mes
sage regarding the attack, this after
room. but nothing was allowed to
reach the public until 10 O'Clock, to-
might. All information which has
reached st. Petersburg shows that the
offenders of Port Arthur have taken
seriously to heart the coup of the Jap
ancsc torpedo boats at the beginning
OF the war and were maintaining
sharp lookout.
The Japanese torpedo boats were
twice discovered sncaking toward the
harb3r entrance under cover of dark
ness. but both times they were detected
far out at SCH and were driven off by
the hot fire opened upon them. The
breaking of day necessarily prevented
further torpedo operations and Admiral
Togo brought up his battlcships ana
cruisers. The division of his fleet was
for the purpose of making a cross fire
upon the harbor in the hope Of destroy
ing the town and OF damaging the Rus
least of dcmoralizing the personnel OF
the defending force.
Tho bombardment of March Q. showed
to the Russians the advantage to the
enemy Of the position off Liatshin,
which Vice Admiral Togos ships took
up, this morning, and Vice Admiral
Makaroff sought to minimize this adj
vantage by so stationing the battleship
Rcvizan that her shells could reach the
japanese battleships. The fact that
tn" Retvizan was used for this purpose
proves the falsity of the report that her

sea.
When the first official dispatches were
received the belief gained ground that
Vice Admiral Mararoff had put to sea
and that a naval fight had taken place.
While this would be in keeping with his
character as an intrepid officer. which
tected cruiser as his flagship, it was
not in accord with the plans of the
Russian authorities. Later advices es-
tablish the fact that the admiral had
simply gone with the unchanged por-
ton OF his feet to the outer roads where
he could more effectively support the
batteries and at the same time take adj
of any weakness which might
develop in the enemy's attack.
