 Admiral Togo and Vice Admiral Ka- nirnura then proceeded to- the palace to report to the emperor. They will probably remain in Tokyo about one week for the purpose of consulting with the general stan and perfecting plans for future operations.
 The headquarters of the army be- Rieging Port Arthur telegraphs that after the occupation of Rihlung fort a small body of Russians still offered re- sistance in the passage between the siege gun line and the gorge.
 At 8 o'clock in the morning they were dislodged entirely, and the occu- patton of the fort became secure. According to the statement of three prisoners, the defenders of Fort Rih- lung numbered about 500 besides some sailors. A majority of the defenders were killed
 The trophies captured with Fort Rih- lung are fifty guns, including four large caliber guns, eseven small caliber guns, thirty-seven millimeter guns and two machine guns and much property as yet unenumerated. .s-
 A Siapanta dispatch says that Rus sian artillery engaged in an action against the Japanese south of Shakhe and near the railroad bridge, the firing continuing till six o'clock in the even ing. The bombardment of the Japa- nese position was effective. The Japa- nese replied very slowly with shrapnel and shimose shells and did very little damage.
 The navy department at Tokyo has published n letter written by am of1- cer of the battleship Sevastopol which had fallen into the hands of the Japa- nese. The writer despairs of relief of the fortress and tells of the destruc- tion wrought by Japanese shells He says the Russians are resigned to their fate and are determined to fight to a finish rather than suffer the shame of surrender.
 A dispatch from Port Arthur states that the Japanese have mounted eight guns commanding positions north of tha Etse forts. The Russians have abandoned the new town, but the Jap anese have been unable to occupy it because of fear that it has been mined.
