ORIOFF'S PUNISHMENT.
KuropatIin Decides to Send the
General to Russia.

Ct Petersburg. Sept 24-The Associated
Press learns ON unquestionable authority that
Major General Orloff, whose precipitaney IN
leaving Yentai 10 join in the attack on the
heights of Sik-wan-Tun exposed General Kuro-
patkin's left flank and forced the abandonment
of Liao-Yang. will be detached from the Man
churian army and either transferred to COM
mand in European Russia retired. The de-
tachment of General Orlon was ordered by Gen
eral Kuropatkin, who has power TO do so without
resorting TO a court martial
The official report that Brigadier General
Fomin. of General Orloff's division. was dead
and the subsequent development that he is only
severely wounded reveal the extent of con-
fusion into which Orlof's division thrown
General Fomin is In hospital at Hardin.
The rumor that General Stakelberg was in
cluded in the disgrace of Major General Orion Is
not true. General KurOpatkin amended his
original report. in which he criticised General
StakeIberg. and now e3oneTates the latter from
all blame for the Russian reverse at Yentai.
adding that General Stakelberg displayed the
greatest bravery.
1t is rumored that General Grippenberg. COM
manding the troops at Wilma, has been selected
TO command the second Manchurian army in
place Of Lieutenant General Linevitch.
General Kuropatkin has Just presented colors
to the Ninth Siberian Division. commanded by
GeneraI kondratoVitch, which was formed Just
before the war. There was no time previously
to prepare colors for this division. which fought
bravely at Wafang-Kao without them.
An admiral writes to the "NOvoe Vremya" be-
wailing the lack Of enterprise and determination
in the management OF the Russian navy. to
which he ascribes the failures of the squadrOns
in the Far East in their operations and of the
auxiliary cruisers recently commissioned to stop

BIG GUNS SHAKE DALNY.
Fierce Bombardment of Port arthur
ON September 10.

Che-Foo. Sept. 24.-A Japanese who has ar
rived here from Dalny says that the battle which
began at Port Arthur September 10 continued
during September 20. but he is unable to give
any details On September 81 and - the jap
anese bombardment was slight.
The Japanese further said that there were un-
verified rumors at Dalny that the japanese had
made some gains. The bombardment of Septem-
ber 10 began at o'clock in the morning and
lasted one hour. At dawn the volume of firing
increased to an extent hitherto unknown. Some
of the heavy guns which have lately been placed
opened fire from quarter which has previously
been silent During the fiercest firing the heavy
guns were fired at an average of twice minute
Every window In Dalny shook.
Chinese from village near Port Arthur con-
firm the foregoing and add that while off the
Mao-Tao Islands yesterday they heard firing
from 10 o'clock in the morning until 4 o'clock in
the afternoon.
The steamer Victoria, which arrived here this
evening from New -Chwang. heard two hours
heavy firing on the east side of Port Arthur this
morning The steamer twice stopped by
Japanese warships but was only briefly de-
layed.

"MATIN,S" STORY DENIED.
Emperor Without Ne1cs of General
assault on Port arthur.

ST. Petersburg. Sept. 24.-There is no truth IN
the story published by the "Matin," or PARIS
this morning, 20 the effect that telesrarls
reached the Emperor at 4 o'clock this morning
announcing that the Japanese were engaged IN
a general assault on Port Arthur and that the
whole of Admiral Togos and Vice-AdmraI
Kamirnura's squadrons aiding IN the
struggle which it was asserted it was feared
would be final. No such kilograms have reacned
Peterhof.
Although no confirmation has been received
at this hour al either the War Office or the Ad-
mralty of the report from Tsng-Chau that
cholera had broken out at Port Arthur. II Is
admitted that possibly it is true. owing to the
number of decaylng corpses there. 1t is hoped
however, that even if the report is true the
outbreak will turn out to be a mild one, and
that 1t will be quickly checked by rigid discipline
and the isolation OF suspicious cases Port Arthur
has been free from cholera for several years,
thanks To constant precautions The chief dan
ger lies In the overcrowded Chinese quarters
but il is believed that comparatively few ma
tives are left at Port Arthur. 1t is pointed out
that if the epidemic. despite all precautions,
obtains a foothold II is likely to affect the jap
anese as well as the Russians.
The Admiralty has not yet received any con-
frmation of the report that vessels OF the Vladi-
vostok squadron have put to sea.

RUSSIA'S POLICY IN TIBET.
Great Britain Likely To Be Asked to Define
Her Position.

Paris, Sept. A.-Information reaching the
highest quarters here indicates that Russia will
probably request Great Britain for a protocol
defining the British intentions in Tibet 1t is
confirmed that Russia and Great Britain had
urittan understanding relative to the British
expedition 10 Tibet. 1t at first supposed
that the recent British-Tibetan treaty carried
out this understanding, but the publication OF
the text of the treaty leads to the belief in off,
cial Russian quarters that Great Britain seeks
a political foothod beyond the terms OF the
understanding. Therefore representations have
been made with view TO obtain a protocol ex-
actly defining and limiting the British sphere.
This is expected 10 be accomplished by annie
able exchange of notes. not involving a renewal
OF the Anglo-Russian tension.
