servatory reports that during the fore
noon of August 10th little rain or fog
prevailed in the direction of Port Arth-
ur. The neighboring sea, however. was
very foggy. The Russians probably
availed themselves of the meteorolo-
gfcal conditions. Considering the re-
port that the fighting lasted until sun
set and that the Japanese torpedo craft
delivered night attack, it is possible
that the Russian ships may have suffer

five of the Russian warships escaned
inside the harbor and that three took

of the Russian destroyer Resitelinni saw
that in the naval battle in the Yellow

battle ships Retvisan and Pallada were
greatly damaged and were compelled
to withdraw inside the harbor. The
Russian Squadron intended to proceed
to Vladivostok, but its present where

that unusually severe fighting took
place on the land side of Port Arthur
from the night of August 10th until
about 10 a. m. on August 18th. The
Russian troops suffered heavy casual

GREATEST OF NAVAL BATTLES.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 14~14:1O a.
n1.I.-Not since the beginning of the
! war between Japan and Russia has
anything so obviously affected Russian
ships as the gradual revelation of the
| extent of the Port Arthur squadron's
reverse. Details of Rear-Admira1
| Withoefts fatal sorties are not known
| to the general public, even at this hour
though the contents of the report of
Captain Matousevitch, Admiral Mitho-
eft's chief of staff, to the Emperor
gradually permeated official circles in
the course of the day, and the cap
tain's statement was issued late to-
night in the form of an official report.
Captain Matousevitch makes it clear
that the Port Arthur squadron fought
what was probably the greatest battle
of ironelads since steel replaced wood
in naval construction.
The effort of the Russians to fight
their way through the Japanese prob
ably would have been successful had it
not been for the disaster to the bat
tleship Czarevitch, which compelled the |
squadron to fight second battle, end |
ing in the dispersal of the Russian fleet |
in the darkness.
The awful mortality among the Off /
GERS of the Czarevitch. which was mere |
to the fact that Admiral Withoeft and |
most of his officers were gathered on
the bridge during the. action in order to
set an example to and encourage the
men, instead of remaining in compare
tive safety in the protection of the
coming tower. A Japanese shell burst
beneath the bridge, wrecking that part
of the ship and killing or wounding ev-
cry officer duty whereabouts.
One of the most important features
of Captain Matousevitch's dispatch.
aside from its grimly brief account of
the battle, is the detailed statement off
the makeup of Rear-Admiral Togo's
fleet, which consisted of six battIeships
eleven cruisers of various classes and
approximately thirty torpedo boats.
According to this statement there
We're in line of battle some ships pre-
viously reported destroyed. This gives
an indication of the japanese naval
force, which Admiral Togo has hitherto
concealed.
Nearly a score of other naval officers,
mostly on the Czarevitch and Retvizan,
were SLAIN Hundreds of seamen were
lost. Five battleships were badly dam
aged. The Czarevitch was permanent
ly disabled Two cruisers are in I'M
seaworthy fix. Two destroyers are
stranded on the rocks. The fleet is
scattered and crippled
The killing OF Rear4AdmiraI Nithoeft,
who was in command of the Russian
naval forces at Port Arthur. occurred
during the engagement on Wednes-
day.

words of Encouragement for Mrs. Rosa

New York, oct. 4-Francis J. Lantry, commissioner of corrections, went his regular weekly round of the district prisons this morning. and at the York vile court saw Mrs. Rosa De Pietro, who yesterday shot and killed Michael Rago. whose attentions were unpleas- ing to her. Mrs. De Pietro had her baby with her, and when she saw the commissioner besought him to use his good offices towards betting her to her husband. With tears in her eyes she begged him for freedom, saying in broken English that she was good woman, and that what she had done had been in self-defense. The baby crowed and held out it's arms to the commissioner.
 Taking the child in his arms the com missioner told the woman: There is a law in the land to protect women. You need have no fear, for there is no doubt but that you will be vlndicated have read the papers and it is my belief that you were perfectly justified in what you did.
