CHEFU. Aug. 15.-That a general
land and naval attack was made on
Port Arthur to-day is indicated by in
formation from various sources. The
statement that the naval attack was
made at 4 o'clock in the morning comes
from an authoritative, but not diplo-
matte, quarter.
Junks which arrived here to-day say
the Japanese recently occupied the
Liauti hills and Sushiyen, which is two
or three miles north of the fortress.
Five warships and seven torpedo
boat destroyers, according to the junks.
returned TO Port Arthur on the night
of August 10.

cupied new positions on that day. The
firing at Port Arthur was heavy, but
intermittent, and indicated that the

declare that the commander of the
japanese feet before Port Arthur in
formed the Russian commander of the
place that if the warships which re-
turned to the harbor after the sortie
Of August 10 were sunk by the Rus
slams the Japanese would shell the
town with lyddite.
