MUST HOLD FORT ARTHUR.
Russians Apparently Fear Siege
and Bomb bardment.

st. Petersburg, March 1.-The No
voc Vremya publishes a remarkable
editorial on the parallel between Port
Arthur and Sebastopol, pointing out
that the ports are identically situated.
The editorial, however, warns the
Russians to abjure fatalistic beliefs.
Although written without knowledge
of General Stoessel's equally remark
able general order, issued at Port Ar
thur, the Novoe Vremya's editorial
cones, as a strong reinforcement-of
its purport, that Port Arthur must in
no case be surrendered. Both seem
to foreshadow a siege of Port Arthur
and a bombardment, which dispatch
from Liaoyang says, it is rumored at
Newchwang, will occur at once. Off
cial opinion continues to be that the
Japanese will make no attempt to in
vest Port Arthur Immediately, al
though it is added they, evidently are

on the Seoul road. They were met by
force OF Japanese infantry, whose
outposts gave warning Of the enemy's
approach.
The Japanese quickly opened fire on
the advancing cavalry, who immedi.
ately turned and dashed toward Anju.
The Japanese plan Of campaign is
being steadily executed. For many
days past transports have been arriv-
ing here unescorted, Japan 'being so
confident of her command of the sea,
while reports from other places show
the landing Of troops has been equally
successful.
Pingyang is the center of operations
in Northwest Korea. A large body Of
troops with many guns is encamped
there. They are faced by a huge force
OF Russians. estimated to be 10000 to
10000, with fifty guns, who have
crossed the Yalu during the past week
and. are now in touch with their ad-
vance body at Anju.
1t is apparent the Russians are de-
termined to advance still further
south. Military men at Chemulpo ex-
pect battle hourly.

JAPANEsE-koREAN TREATY.

Convention Considered Highly Satis-

Weihaiwei, March 1.-The treaty

forming to Japanese ideas Of reform,
Japan pledging the safety Of Korean
royalty and territorial independence.
Japan is authorized to resist the en-
croachments Of third party and to
occupy Korean territory If necessary
for strategic purposes. This provision
Of the treaty justifies Japan's occupa-
tion of Chemulpo and Seoul and prob
able movements northward.
The treaty is considered highly sat
isfactory by both parties. A Korean
envoy who is proceeding to Picking,
during an interview with Governor
Lockhard, expressed convictions that
the treaty would be of the highest
benefit to Korea provided Russia's en-
croachments were frustrated and that
Japan would incur Koreas deepest
debt of gratitude.

Yinkow, March L. Japan has sud
denly struck again at Port Arthur,
and the result is almost as disastrous
to Russia as the first startling blow at
the beginning of the war.
Fifteen Japanese warships appeared
off Port Arthur yesterday morning at
10 O'Clock and opened furious bonn
bardment. The cruisers Novik, Ask
old and Bayan, reinforced with four
torpedo boats, steamed out to meet
the attack but were forced to retire.
The Askold retired in sinking con-
dition and barely managed to make
the inner harbor, while the Novik was
badly damaged. One torpedo boat
was sunk and the battleship Retvizan
was again damaged.
The bombardment lasted two hours,
When the Japanese fleet withdrew in

Port Arthur, March General
Stoesse1, commander Of the garrison

recting the attention of the troops apd
Inhabitants to the fact that the Jap
anese intend to land and seize the
fortress. The general declares the
Japanese consider the seizure of Port
Arthur to be a question of national
honor and from their obstinate attacks
and bombardments of the fortress and
bays he can only conclude that the
enemy will make every effort to cap
ture the fortress, failing which the
Japanese will destroy the railroad
and withdraw. I...
"The enemy, however, proceeds
the general order, "is mistaken. Our
troops know and the inhabitants are
herewith informed by me that we will
not yield. We must fight to the finish
as I, the commandant, will never give
an order to surrender. l bring this to
the notice of those less daring and
call ON all to become convinced of the
necessity of fighting to the death.
Those who leave without fighting will
not save themselves There is no way
out On three sides there is the sea
and on the fourth will be the enemy.
There is no means of escape except
by fighting"

which is blowing the lights of Jap
