NEGROES ALARMED.
Whitecaps in Jefferson and Lonoke

Pine Bluff, Ark, Jan. DIR. Glib
son and d. B. Nivan, Of Jefferson

in conference with Sheriff James
Gould regarding protection to the ne
groes of Jefferson and Lonoke coun-
ties who have been warned by the
~whitecaps who style themselves the
"Lonoke County Club" to leave the
country. These gentlemen say that
other notices have been posted on the
negro cabins in that section, in
which the negroes have been given un-
til January 10 to get out of the coun-
ty, and that the negroes are very
much alarmed. Thus far no actions
to enforce the order from the Club"
have been made, but the whites fear
that trouble will result. Sheriff
Gould has promised protection to the
negroes In this county.
About six or eight years ago a sim
liar move was made by the w~hitecaps
in this section, and much harm re-
suited. Serious trouble is feared un.
less the officers can apprehend the
meu who posted the notices.

Follows a Month of Reverses.

FOLLOWS a WJflLi VI NNeElSNo'
London. Jan. 1.-The news that the
Russian forces at Port Arthur have
been reduced TO such a strait that at
last the heroic commander has been
forced to propose surrender, iOi'
lows upon a month of reyerscs. The
siege began almost with the firing OF
the first gun in the war, now nearly
eleven months ago, and when perhaps
the greatest stronghold in the world
was g]arrjs0ned by 10000 Russian sol
diers supported by n formidable
squadron of modern battleships, cruz
sers and torpedo boats. These war
ships have been destroyed or dispersed
until but a few torpedo boats remain
in the harbor. The garrison at latest
accounts had been reduced to about
$1,000 men.
On December 4 High t203 Meter
Hilll one Of the most commanding po-
sltions in the series Of forts, was TAX
en- and held by the japanese after a
severe fight, in which the loss on both
sides was enormous. 1t was from
this hill that the deathblows were
dealt the warships that were then re-
naming in the harbor and afterwards
the japanese guns were trained on
the town and such forts as were with
in range.
On December 19 the kekwan fort
was taken by the Japanese, atfording
them another advantageous position
from which to assail other forts in
the chain Of defenses, Mining and
sapping we're important factors in the
capture of this position, as they were
also in tho fall Of the Rihlung fort
on December 20, All these achieve
ments served to cut communications
between the Liaotie fort, destined to
be the last Glitch Of the defenders,
and a great part of the chain OF forts.
From the hour Of the fall of East
Kekwan events have seemed to be
fastening to their elimination, for
on December 81 Sungshu mountain
fell into the hands Of the Japanese,
and only II few hours later the H
fort, another strong position, was cap
tured.
The report that the non-combatants
of Port Arthur had been accorded asy-
lum behind Liaotie' mountain may
have been an indication that the Jap
anese commander foresaw that the
surrender of the Russians within a
very brief time was assured.
