IEGeneral Stoessel's dispatches

q II am happy to inform your
majesty that on November 20,
after an increased bonn bardment,
the Japanese attacked one of the
forts on the northeastern front
and leaped with a portion of their
forces on the parapet. They
were annihilated by rifle fire and
the bayonet and thrown back in

perseverance, a passage between
two forts situated on the north
eastern front. At $50 O'Clock in
the evening of November %, af-
ter heavy firing, the Japanese
suddenly hurled themselves
against several works on this
front and seized portion of the
trenches, but they were thrown
back by the reserves after a
fierce bayonet struggle. They
returned to the assault at mid
night and again occupied a part
of the trenches. but were annihi-
lated by our bayonets. At 2
O'Clock in the morning all was
over and your majesty's heroic
troops were able to rest and
start repairing the damage caus-
ed by the bombardment. .

Double Daily Service.

The post Office department
has given the people along the
line of the A. & B. railroad an inn
portant increase ia mail facili-
ties by placing mail agents on all
the passenger trains between
Wavcross and Montezuma.
Early in the spring the editor
of the Enterprise, representing
the Cham Der of Com merce,
took the matter up with Supt. l..
NJ. Terrell, of the railway mail
service, and secured his promise
that the additional mail SER
vice would be put on July 1st,
but instead they gave US simply
an increase in pouch exchange
between important points on the
line.
We again urged the necessity
for the mail clerk service but
found that it would be necessary
to take the matter up with higher
authorities. We wrote TO Con-
gressmeu Brant1ey and Lewis
who in turn took the matter up
with the department with the re-
suit that he service was put on
yesterday.

ANSWERING RED CROSS INQUIRIES.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir A number OF inquiries have been made in re-
gard TO rendering aid to the Red Cross societies OF
bellgerent nations. In regard to this the NTH ar-
Gle Of the resolutions Of the conference Of Geneva
OF 1853 states that the Red Cross committees OF
bererent nations "can solicit the assistance OF the
committees belonging 70 neutral nations
When this is done it is customary for the commit
tee rendering the aid to obtain through It's State
Department the consent OF the other belligereut
power. II the assistance is volunteered 1t Is the
fnvariabIe custom Of the Red Cross societies TO oer
this aid impartia1ly to the Red Cross societies or
both or more beIlgerent nations
AS at present much interest is shown in the Rus
sian and japanese Red Cross societies, these brief
statistics gathered from late reports are enghten
ing. Russian Red Cross funds n 1s01 were about
S650lo0 besides 100000 in real estate. 1t had over
six hundred committees and Institutions, and also
about four thousand trained nurses. Japan has
over 100000 in its Red Cross treasury, an annual
income Of over s. 10000 from the dues Of its esht
hundred thousand members. etc, and over twenty
FIVE hundred trained nurses. It has also two hos
pital ships as most Of its wounded must be brought
home by sea-
The last report OF the American National Red
Cross gives the balance IN its treasury as S24, and
gives no equipment Of personnel or Of supplies for
active service. -
