 DaIny Docks Not Destroyed.

Chefoc, May 25.-10 p. m.-A part of the Japanese fleet bombarded Port Ar thur at Il o'clock yesterday morning. The attack was witnessed by French man who left Dalny on the night of the 22d, arriving here tonight. He says that eight large warships circled be- fore the entrance of Port Arthur far- bor for one hour, firing broadsides at intervals of ten minutes. Up to the time this Frenchman left Dalny every thing was quiet there, but an attack on the part of the Japanese was expected hourly. The military and civil officials of Dalny were ready to leave. Only a few civilians remain there. Four Jap anese cruisers and fleet of torpedo boats and torpedo-boat destroyers pass ed midway between Port Arthur and the Miao Tao islands at 4 o'clock this morning.
 The attempt made about a fortnight ago to destroy the docks and piers at Dalny was not successful, and, after the receipt of the news of the loss of the Japanese battleship Hatsuse, Lieuten- ant General Stoessel, commander of the military forces at Port Arthur, ordered that the docks and piers be not de- stroyed.

 Jackson, Miss, May 25.-All the busi- ness houses of any importance, large number of private residences. the prin- cipal hotel and the passenger depot in Yazoo City, town of 5000 population, were to-day destroyed by fire.

The financial loss will be the heaviest in the history of Miss issippi since the war. The fire was three blocks wide and twelve blocks long. The city was putting in new system of waterworks, and the old sys- tenn, which had wooden mains, was wholly inadequate to meet the demand. Pipes burst all over the city, and 1t was impossible to get the water even to the first floor of buildings. A man named Chambliss, a citizen of this place, was killed by falling walls, and Mayor Holmes was very badly hurt.
 In the afternoon the fire jumped the bayou and reached Latonia, resi- dence suburb, where it destroyed some of the finest homes. Tonight about sixty families are homeless. This af- ternoon Governor Vardaman ordered out the Greenwood militar company, directing it to go to Yazoo City to pro- tect property. He and Adjutant Gen. eral Fridge followed on the next train and are there tonight. The only com munication with Yazoo City tonight is by means of long distance telephone.
 The latest reports from Yazoo City place the loss at figures between $2,000, 900 and $2,500,00O. Some estimates are even as high as s3,00OO00. The total insurance is between $SO0,OOO and s1,- 00c,00c.

DESTRUCTION IN RUSSIA.
Correspondents Sensational Statements
 Regarding Internal Conditions.

Regarding Internal Conditions.
 London, May 26.-The Standard pub fishes a dispatch from a Russian cor respondent, in whom the paper says it places great confidence, containing most sensational statements regarding the alarming condition of Russia as the outcome of the war. The correspond ent asserts that disturbances in various cities have been followed by wholesale executions without any civil trial. It is stated that 500 persons have been hanged in Warsaw alone, and that many others have been hanged in Cronstadt and Moscow. At the latter place the troops buried eighty coffins containing the bodies of those who had been hanged. The bodies were buried secretly, in the dead of night, presum- ably in the woods.
 This correspondent asserts that the war has resulted in the utter paralysis of all business, and says that even the most sober-minded are dreaming omi- nous from the fact that regiments sta- toned in European Russia have been retained in their places, and that only reservists have been mobilized for the front
 The Standard in an editorial says it publishes this correspondents state ments under all reserve, but it thinks there are many indications, such, for instance, as the sinking of the battle ship Orel, that the normal disaffection of the population of Russia has been greatly stimulated by the war.
