Other Information of Jap-
 aReSe Disaster
CAMP PAIGN IN THE NORTH
Not Many Days Will Pass Before KuropatKin Will Engage in a Decis- i've Battle or Break Ground to Lure" the Japanese Farther On.

St. Petersburg, July 13.-A special dispatch received from Mukden today dated July F, repeats the story of the Japanese repulse at Port Arthur with a loss of 30O00 men. The dispatch says: News has been received from d relia- ble source that the Japanese third army on the night of July II attacked Port Arthur and was heavily defeated, an immense number being killed by the Russian mines. The total loss Is about 30OO0.'
 There was great anxiety throughout St. Petersburg all evening for further details of the disaster. It has develop ed that the official report which was at first supposed to emanate directly from Viceroy Alexieff was not specifically fathered by him, but was given out as a report reaching his headquarters from Japanese sources What these sources are has not been yet explained. Possibly the report was intercepted by wireless telegraph, but it is more likely that it came from the Russian consul at Che Foo or the Russian cc=sul at Tien Tsin.
