JAPANESE TORPEDO BOAT SUNK AND
RUSSIAN DESTROYER GOES DOWN.

any, the emperor may nave, is not
known
Military and naval circles are mysti-
fled at the purpose Of the appearance
OF Japanese torpedo boats during the
previous night, as it was not accom-
panied by a serious attempt upon the
Russian ships.
The bombardment Of the fleet from a
position off the Liaotishin promontory,
which is five to six miles from Golden
hill at the entrance Of the harbor, is
believed TO indicate that the Japanese
were afraid to risk frontal attack
under the guns of the land batteries.
Ii is considered doubtful whether any
OF the guns of the Russian batteries
command the location from which the
japanese We're firing. 1t is pointed
out that dropping shells into the har-
Dor and town even for fun is accom-
panied by danger and this haphazard
work is explicable perhaps only on the
theory that it was meant as diversion
to cover more serious operations else
where. Still, some of the experts here
declare their belief that the only OBJ
ject of the japanese was to keep the
garrison and feet worried.
