TROOPS STARVING
General Stosssel is Now
Said to Have Given Up
Hope Of Defense.
JAps FAIL At MUkDEN
Black Sea Fleet in Mutiny-
Reform the Topic OF the
Day in Russia.

LONDON. Nov. 25, 19o4-That all
hope has been given up by General Stoes-
sci. the defender of Port Arthur, it is
stated in dispatches from Moscow, has
been revealed. It has been learned, it is
asserted, that in his last messages to the
Car, sent by the destroyer Raztoropny
to Chefoo, the Russian commander made
frank statement Of the helplessness of
the situation General Stoessel used
words which can be literally translated:
sThe garrison is being starved out"
He evidently attached great import
ance to the Gar receiving his communi-
cation in time to enable a decision to be
reached as to how he was to act in view
of the absolute certainty of the fall Of
the fortress.
Hence the sacrifice ofSthe Raztoropny
which was sunk by her commander in
Chefoo harbor after she had delivered
her dispatches, rather than to have her
fall into the hands of the japanese.
Dispatches from Toxic say that the
publication of unofficial news from Port
Arthur is no longer prohibited. The be-
siegers' works are progressing rapidly
notwithstanding numerous petty sorties,

eeive the deputation appointed by the
zemstvos meeting to present the resolu-
tions adopted, because the meeting was
not authorized by the government New
ertheless, he has not refused to submit
the demands of the zemstvos to the czar.
This will probably be done on Saturday.
The Grashranin angrily voices the bur-
eaucracy's hostility to Prince Mirsky.
Referring to his encoura cement of the
zemstvos, it says: .We are living in a
mad house. To give such opinions more
than five minutes discussion is a symp-
tom of disordered mind"
Simultaneously a sensation has been
caused by the publication of new jour
nal called Our Life,n which prints the
most vigorous and most outspoken article
ever published in Russia. 1t declares the
war has nothing to do with the nations
interests. The article concludes by say
ing that incidents of the war compel
us to cry quicker and quicker let an end
be put to the horrible butchery" Prince
Mirsky caused the paper to be conis-
Gated and has forbidden its sale in the
future
