Japanese, which occurred last Mon
day, is the elimination of one of the
most terrific and fierce siege battles
fought in modern times. 1t caused
the widest enthusiasm among the
japanese people and caused CORE
spending depression among the gov
eminent class of the Russians. 1t
puts to rest any further doubt of the
ultimate result OF the conflict-in fact
it practically decides the conflict.
The terms of surrender were liberal
yet unconditional. All Russian SOL
diers, marines, volunteers, also Gov.
eminent officials at the garrison and
harbor OF Port Arthur are taken
prisoners. All forts, batteries, war
ships, other ships and boats, arms,
ammunition, horses, all materials for
hostile use, Government buildings,
and all objects belonging to the Rus
sian Government, are transferred to
the Japanese army in their existing
condition. A provision is however
made whereby all Russian soldiers
who will sign written parole pledg-
ing that they will not take up arms
and in no wise take action against
Japan until after the close of the war
may return to their country.
