LONDON, May 6.-A Port Arthur dispatch says the Japanese squadron under Admiral Togo is behind the Liaoshan promontory, south of Port Arthur
 The Japanese appear to be closing around Port Arthur. A special cable dispatch from Tokyo reports that they are preparing to land troops at New chWang. Transports have appeared off Pitsewo and in Kinchow bay, indi- eating their intention to cut off Port Arthur by landing on both sides of the peninsula at once. London special ca ble dispatches say the fall of Port Ar thur is there regarded as certain.
 Russia's Vladivostok fleet is out again, and dispatches say it has engag- cd Admiral Kamimura's squadron off Wonson, at which place heavy cannon Going has been heard far out to sea.
 Transports with Japanese troops on board have arrived at Pitsewo, north east of Port Arthur, with the object of making a landing.
 Five Japanese warships, with large number of transports, have been seen near Kinchou bay, on the west coast of the Liaotung peninsula, north of Port Arthur
 A report from Chefu says that Chi nese juaks which have arrived there report that fleet of forty Japanese warshipS and transports was seen of Weihaiwei, steaming northwest.
 ViceroY Alexeieff's departure from Port Arthur is interpreted to mean that the place ia in imminent danger of tsola ton, and the Japanese prepara- lions for landing are considered as con- Hrming the belief that Port Arthur has been sealed up, probably by two of the sunken ships which Russia ''failed to locate" It is supposed that the Japa- neSe will make a supreme effort to cut off Port Arthur before the arrival of Vice Admiral Skrydlof.
 A dispatch from St Petersburg says a runner is current there that a second battle has been fought at Kiulien- cheng, in which the Russian loss was 1000, the Japanese loss 10000 men and resulted 1n the Japanese being driven back in disorder, but a report from St. Petersburg says General Kuropat- kin has gone to the front from Liao- yang to inspect the situation person ally. Troops are being hurried for ward from the Liaoyang and Mukden line to position near Fengwangcheng.
 Viceroy AIexeief has left Port Ar thuY to confer with General Kuropat- kin at Liaoyang, to which place the general will return immediately after an inspection of the troops at Feng wangcheng Rear Admiral Wittsoeft, chief of staff to Viceroy Alexeieff, has been left in charge of the naval forces at Port Arthur.
 The effect of the disaster to Russian arms on the Yalu upon the Chinese is being watched with keen interest and considerable apprehension.
 The danger of an antiforeign move ment throughout the Chinese empire exists not only for Russia but for all the powers, and Russia has at least three times since the outbreak of the war addressed the powers on the sub ject, the last time being less than ten days ago. The answers received uni formly show a full appreciation of the need of exercising a restraining infiu- ence on Picking, and all the powers are cooperating to this end
 The Russians are reported from St. Petersburg to have abandoned their in- tention of holding Fengwangcheng and to be retreating north toward Liao- yang The Japanese are in hot pursuit, and fighting is almost continuous
