RUSSIANS SAY JAPS LOST $4,000.
RidicuIe The Statement That Losses at Port
Arthur Were $4,000.

Chefoo, (By Cable The statement OF
tn e censored dispatches from CORE
spondents with General Nogis army
that the Japanese lost only $4,000 men
in taking the fortress is declared to be
Assured by Russian naval oficreS here
Their lowest estimate, they say, based
both OH personal observation and on
stories told by prisoners, is that the
Japanese lost 10000.
Advices from Japanese sources say
that the condition of Port Arthur is
chaotic, but that General NOgl and Cen
eral Stocssel are rapidly systematizlng
affairs there.
General Nogis is prepared, through
agents who have been recruiting Tor
months, TO put a horde of Chinese coolies
at work in the terrifying OF Port
Arthur Immediately that the Russians
are disposed of. Vast quantities OF
cement and timber are ready on the
Yalu River for this purpose, while steel
plates are ready in Japan for trans
portation to the fortress.
The Japanese are confident that the
identification of Port Arthur will place
he fortress i'll better condition than
ever. with the Russian defects elimi-
mated. long before Russia can besiege 1t,
if such a thing ever occurs at all.
Ammunition, food and medical sup
plies to last for years will be sent to
Port Arthur. Japan being heedful of the
mistakes made by the Russians

Admirals at ChefoO Ia Disguise.

St. Petersburg (By Cable).-A dis
patch from Chefoo says it is reported
that Rear Admiral Prince Ouktomsky
and Rear Admiral Dochinsky have ar
rived there disguised on board a launch:
Prince Ouktomsky assumed command
of the Port Arthur squadron after 40
mirsl Makaroff was drowned as a re-
suit of the sinking of his flagship, the
battleship Petropavlovsk, at the entrance
of Port Arthur April 10. Later the
Prince was replaced in command OF the
squadron by the late Rear Admiral Wit
hoft, and after the latter was killed dur
ing naval battle of August 10, Prince
Ouktomsky again assumed command OF
the squadron, and, it is said, contrary to
orders, returned to Port Arthur, tor
which, it was alleged he was to be
tried by cOurt-martial.
This, however, was denied. but the
Prince was succeeded in command OF
the naval forces by Rear Admiral Wren.
Recently it is understood, Prince Ouk-
tomsky has not been attached to any
of the Russian ships.
The name Of Rear Admiral Dochln-
skv has not figured in the cable dis

for an envoy extraordinary and minister
plenipotentiary to Morocco. He urges
that the establishment of such mission
should not be delayed Our relations
with that country are growing, he says
and there are possibilities for large
volume of trade. Forcasting import
ant changes in Morocco, Secretary nay
saws that potential commercial interests
of the United States should be safe
guarded.
The representative Of The United
States in Morocco is a consular. ofhcer'
while nine European powers have min
listers who are permitted to see the
Sultan and impress him with sense OF
the significance and power OF the gov
ernments they represent. The Secretary
says the consequence is those who en-
joy American protection in Morocco are
not treated with that degreee OF courtesy
and Justice that is accorded to those
who are under the aegis of any OF the
nine European nations which have dip,
lomatc representatives in that country.

CITY OF DEAD AND WOUNDED.
NovI Reports That 10000 Out Of $4,000 Are
Disabled.

Toxic (By Cable The following re-
oort was received from General Nogi:
"Order is maintained at Port Arthur
by the officers. The people are quiet.
"Our minute investigation was not
finished until Tuesday night.
"The total number of inhabitants is
about $4,000, of whom $4,000 are SOL
diers or sailors. The total number OF
sick or wounded is 10000.
Common provisions and bread are
plentiful, but there is scarcity OF meat
and vegetables.
"There are no medical supplies at
Port Arthur The Japanese are siren
uously succoring the people.
"The equalization committees are
pushing their respective works"
The Gar has -cabled to General
Stoesse saying that the giving OF Their
parole or the alternative Of imprlson-
ment is optional with the Russian Off
GERS.
The weight of opinion in Japanese
official circles is against belief III the
early conclusion of peace, and doubt IS
expressed that the fall of Port Arthur
will materially affect the situation. One
of several high officials, who discussed
the question, voiced the sentiment OF
the majority when he said:
1--WE are confronting situation winch
continues to be purely military. The
present problem is created by General
Kuropatkin's army and by the Russian
second Pacific squadron. We are de-
voting all attention to them. 49,,
1--WE anticipate that the Russians viii
renew more determinedly than ever their
effort to drive Field Marshal Oyama
back and that they will strive TO gam
supremacy at sea. We are preparing
to defeat both these objects.
"The situation makes talk OF peace
futile
The Jill, discussing the capture OF
Port Arthur, reviews the price paid IN
lives and says:
"We ought to keep Port Arthur III
Our hands so long as our Empire eX-
lists. Port Arthur is the key to peace
in the Far East, and it is our duty to
keep the city in our hands"
Commander Pelem and lieutenant
of the Russian torpcdo-boat destroyer
Rastoronpy, who were captured on board
the British steamer Nigretia and taken
on board of her to Sasebo, have con-
fessed their identity before the naval
court there. Heretofore they posed as
German super-cargoeS, bit when con-
fronted with the results of the Japan
csc Investigations at Shanghai, conceal
ment was impossible. They have been
designated as prisoners of war.
No contraband of war has yet been
discovered on the Nigretia. Her cargo
consists of kerosene and the prize court
is still undecided upon what action to
take in her case. 1t is probable If the
ship is condemned it will be solely ow-
ing to connivance in the escape OF the
Russian officers.

Great Britain and Germany Nearly
Broke

Berlin (By Cable).-The National
Liberal leader, DR.. Paasche, addressing
his constituents at Creuznach, made the
astonishing statement that Germany and
Great Britain were on the verge of war
last week, referring evidently to the
representations which the German For
eign Office made to Great Britain re-
garding a bellicose threat against Ger
many in the Army and Navy Gazette
DR.. Paasches words we're:
81 know with absolute certainty that
Germany and Great Britain last week
were much nearer warlike complications
than many people dream. Our dlplo-
macy succeeded in averting the danger,
though with difficulty"
Referring to the American duty on
German wines, DR.. Paasche said he had
mentioned the matter to Chancellor Won
Buelow, who had promised to do every
thing in his power to prevent it. Never
theless. he added, the Americans were
;ncensed against Germany because OF
difficulties thrown in the way OF the M
portation of American goods into Ger
many.
