 LONDON, Dec 2.-A special from Chefu says that the attack on Meter hill resulted in heavy losses ,to the First division of the Japanese storm CTS and that simultaneously stormers of the Ninth and Eleventh divisions ad- yanced and menaced the Rihlung and Keekwan forts. a ..e.#.4
 Within the last twenty-four hours the Japanese casualties have totaled 15,OOO, and it Is asserted that attacks have been planned to continue until Dec. 10, when, it is hoped, the capture of Port Arthur will be completed.
 A Mukden report says that a. de cidedly hot skirmish has taken place on the Russian right between the will lages of Chjantan and Syackchen, the latter place being occupied by Russian troops. Several companies of Japa- =nese, with cavalry, taking advantage of night, tried to cut the Russian com munication in this direction, but border scouts inclosed the Japanese on two sides and routed them capturing ten rifles and several horses. The Russian loss was five killed or wounded. < The Japanese loss is supposed to have been much heavier.
