The War win Co Right On.


Paris. Jan. According to official
advices received at the foreign office
regarding the terms of capitulation
of Port Arthur signed last night, the
Russian officers. but not the rank
and file, will be permitted to return
to Russia, but this is not positive
Russian officials here strongly incline
to the view that the war will go
right on without reference to Port
Arthur. The Russian naval attaches
say that the mission of the Russian
second Pacific squadron was to save
Port Arthur Therefore, since the
mission cannot be accomplished the
squadron will probably wait until re-
inforced by the third and possibly
the fourth squadron. They believe
that Russia will re-take Port Arthur
by assaults on land and sea. This
will require time for adequate naval
and military concentration, thus pro-
longing the war one or two years.

the entrance to the harbor of Port
Arthur and dispatching torpedo boat

directly opposite to the opinions ex-

probably would have felt compelled
to act in a similar manner, and fur
ther he said that if Stoessel had been
Japanese he would probably have
committed suicide after dispatching
the destroyers and blowing up the
ships remaining in the harbor. He
