JAP FLETES GIVE UP AND
WILL TIE UP FOR WINTER

Lonon, Oct. 1.-The failure of the
latest Japanese attempt to drive out
the Port Arthur fleet and reduce the
fortress has led, according to the Tele
graphs Chefoo correspondent, to the
decision that the Japanese must go in
to winter quarters, the Japanese Off
GERS admitting that General Stoesser
is making a superb stand.
Accordingly" the correspondent
says, permanent Notifications offer
ing excellent shelter are being con,
structed outside the Russian main line
of defences and warm clothing is be,
ing brought up for the troops. Rein
forcements are continually arriving.
Finding it impossible to hold the outer
forts, even when they are captured,
owing to the enfilating fire, the only
alternative left the Japanese is to cut
off the supplies and communications. -
The Posts report of a general en-
gagement, in which the Japanese were
victorious, at Mukden, is not con-
firmed in any quarters. 1t is probably
an exaggerated version of outpost af-
fairs.

Washington, Oct. 1.-The condition
Of Postmaster General Payne CON
tinued extremely grave throughout
yesterday. There were times during
the day, notably in the early morning
end late in the afternoon, when the
attending physicians believed the end

heroic remedies applied and seemed
to regain some of the lost ground.
Last night at about s o'clock he fell
into a restful sleep, which continued
some time. The doctors regarded this
as encouraging for a peaceful night
The greatest cause of alarm during
the day was the feebleness OF heart
action and 1t was found necessary
to administer a saline solution and
nitroglycerine to stimulate that organ.
The response was gratifying. The
most hopeful sign of the case is the
fact that he has been able to retain
