Bullets and Disease Took One in -Four
in Port Arthur.

Toxic, Jan. 9-In well informed cir
cles it is estimated that the original
garrison of Port Arthur numbered from
$4,000 to 100000 men, including sailors.
The killed, those who died Of sickness
and the missing, are placed at over ten
thousand. J..
The Japanese, who express great adj
miration for General Fock and other
officers for refusing parole, and stand
ing by the men of their army, are busily
preparing to receive the Russian pris7
oners from Port Arthur. The first batch
of ten thousand. are expected to ar
rive at Meji and Shemonoeski shortly.
After disinfection, they will be sent to
Kure, and probably to Metsuyama,
Nagoya, Himeji, Kyoto, etc. The gen
erals will be treated in the best possible
manner. It is unlikely any of the pris,
oners will be brought to Toxic.
The Gazette announces today that the
Russians have delivered five survivors

After Oct. 6-Amazed at
His Defeat.

Headquarters of the Third Japanese
Army at Port Arthur, Jan. 9.-Captain
Tsunoda, the Japanese staff officer who
was sent to Port Arthur to inform Gen
eral Stoessel that the emperor Of Japan
had ordered that the garrison should
be treated with the greatest considera-
ton, says:
,HGeneral Stoessel s first inquiry was
about the whereabouts Of General Kuro-
patkin. I said I did not know exactly,
but understood he was somewhere
about Mukden
6 General Stoessel remarked that he
had last heard from General Kuropat-
kin Oct. 6, saying he would come to
relieve Port Arthur soon. General
Stoessel added that he had sent out
Chinese spies who returned and re:
ported that General Kuropatkin with a
relieving army was at Kin-chou, twenty
miles north of Port Arthur.
General Stoessel was plainly in
credulous at my statements that Gen:
eral Kuropatkin had been defeated and
driven back towards Mukden, SO I pro
duced maps, showing, him the position
of the two armies near the Shak-he
river and gave Stoessel details of Kuro-
patkin 8 defeat with the loss of $4,000
to 10000 men, at which the Russian
general expressed amazement and
quickly remarked that ne had peen mis-:
General Stoessel then asked where
the Baltic fleet was and / told him
that some Of the ships had not passed
the Cape of Good Hope.
HWith a hopeless expression, Gen
eral Stoessel said: Now that Port Ar

fleet coming any further

Country for Revision.

/, Representative Tawney of Minnesota
told the conference he belieyed the
country at large desired an. pverhaul-
ing Of some of the .Dingley schedules
on the ground that Industrial conditions
had changed greatly during the eight
years. that have elapsed since the law
was framed. - H.
During these eight years, Mr.. Tawney
pointed out, the new order Of things
in industrial ism, the great corporation
or combination, had largely come into
existence. The economic excuse for
this new order was that it would cheap
en- production. It is now time to in
quire if it has done so, to inquire If the
tariff rates that were deemed just eight
years ago could not now be somewhat
reduced with advantage to business and
to the consumer. to inquired the labor
cost abroad and at home is not more
than equalized by some Of the duties,
and to inquire, moreover, with great
care and particularly, what would be
the effect of the proposed lower duties
upon the revenues Of the government.
Mr.. Tawney's argument In favor OF
a thoro investigation by the WAYS and
means committee into The present day
Industrial conditions made decided
impression upon the conference, and was
supported by others present.
