Port Arthur, March General
stoessel, commander Of the garrison
here, has issued a general order tdi-
recting the attention Of the troops and
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
ture9 the fortress failing which the
Japanese will destroy the railroad
and withdraw. ''',E <.s'sN l.

were Lowered into the Water.
One of them. in charge of Second
Steward Savage, got under the guard
and was stove in and later upset, the
other boats going to the rescue.
Il do not know just how many peo-
pie there were in the various boats
lowered, though possibly sixty. The
boats we're out in the open until $50
O'Clock, when, believing we had the
fire under control, blew three whis-
ties, signaling the boats to gather
around tho ship, and by $3.50 all save
those lost were on board again.
"The men in the glory hole, when
called on the discovery of the fire,
came up through flames and binding
smoke. Three lost their way and
rushed into the cockpit, where they
were suffocated or burned to death.
"At the time the fire was discovered
the wind was blowing from the south
west, probably fifteen miles an hour.
There was nasty choppy sea running.
I have no idea as to the cause or origin
of the fire. 1t appears to have burst
forth very suddenly and but for the
heroic work of the crew and passen'
gers in fighting it the ship, with all
on board, would have been burned"

MUST HOLD PORT ARTHUR.

Russians Apparently Fear a Siege
and Bombardment.
St. Petersburg, March 1.-The No
voc Vremya publishes q remarkable
editorial on the parallel between Port
Arthur and Sebastopol, pointing out
that the, 4 orts are identically situated.
The editorial, however, warns the
Russians to, abjure fatalistic beliefs.
Although written without knowledge
of General Stoessels equally remark
able general order, issued at Port Ar
thur, the Novoe, Vremya's editorial
comes as o. strong reinforcement Of
its purport, that Port Arthur must in
no case be surrendered. Both seem
to foreshadow siege OF Port Arthur
and bOmbardment, which, a dispatch
from Liaoyang says, it is rumored at
Newchwang, will occur at once. Off
ctal 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
determined to force matters as rap
idly as possible. In 1894 they landed
on the northern part of the peninsula
and the Chinese made no resistance,
still it took twenty-eight days before
Port Arthur was really Invested. The
object of the Japanese now may be to
avoid this preliminary delay by disem-
barking their troops at Pigeon bay.
If they d." said naval expert:
they will meet with opposition which
will render their plan impracticable."
