Russian People Not Aware Of the Fall
of Port Arthur

Of Port Arthur.
st. Petersburg, Jam 3.-The news
that Gtneral Stoessel, after sustaining
eleven months siege, has at last yield
ed to the inevitable is not yet known
to the Russian public, the announce
ment being forbidden until it is Off
cfally confirmed from Russian sources.
But the best Informed circles at the
war Office, which are in possession Of
unpublished portions of dispatches
taken by the torpedo boat destroyers
to Chefoo describing the state of af-
fairs in the beleaguered garrison, ac-
cept the news as true and it is not too
much to say that it was received al
most with q sense OF relief, and the
fact that the remnant of the heroic
defenders is not reserved for sacrifice
at final storming and perhaps to be
subjected to horrors and excesses does
not meet with a word of criticism in
Russia. Even in defeat General Stoes-
sells wonderful defense of Port Arthur
has earned for him an impershable
name in Russian military annals. Ever
since confirmation was received of the
destruction Of the Port Arthur squad
ron it had been felt both at the ad-
mlralty and at the war Office that the
main reason for the sacrifice of tha
last man in the defense of the fortress
had gone and the progress made by
the besiegers during the past fort
night eliminating in the capture of
Wantai (SignaD hill, which broke the
chain OF inner eastern forts, made it
certain that the end was at hand.

RUSSIA'S PACIFIC FLEET
PRACTICALLY WIPED OUT.

The defense of the position, which
fell to her as heritage after the
Chinese-Japanese war, has cost Russia
practically her entire fleet in those
waters. Her ships lie from Port Ar
thurs inner basin to Chemulpo, in
Korea, and along the Shantung penin-
sula, battered hulks of once proud ves-
sells; or, ignominiously dismantled,
are interned in neutral Chinese har-
,bors. Save the three or four cruisers
and some lesser craft that lie in the
icebound refuge of Vladiyostok not a

sells since the morning of Feb. 8, when
ne hurled his fleet at the Russian ships
IN Port Arthur'S roadstead
The siege of Port Arthur properly
dates from May 27, when, after engag-
ing the first army landed by the Japa-
nese at Pitsewo, Stoessel was forced
back from the neck of the Kwangtung
peninsula. The Japanese landing was
begun on May and the Russian COM
mander elected to give battle at his
northernmost line of defenses The
engagement was severe one and
drove the Russians back to the first OF
the main defenses of the position. A
few days later, on May 80, the Japa-
nese occupied Dalny and on June 14-16
General Stakelberg, advancing to the
relief of the Port Arthur army, was
defeated by General Oku at the bat
ties of Vafangow and Telissu With
Togo's ships lying like watchdogs
around Port Arthurs seaward side
and Nogi advancing slowly but relent-
lessly by land the famous stronghold
was under siege, and from then on un-
I'll General Stoessel, on New Years
day, sought terms of capitulation. the
operations have been marked by al
most ceaseless fighting, bombardments
by the feet alternating with desperate
attacks by land, or assaults by the
combined naval and military forces.

at Cnlnese Port.
Chefoo, jan 3.-The Russian tor
pedo boats Skory, Stratni, Flastni ana
Serdity, now in port, have been dis
armed and the japanese destroyers
which followed them in have left the
harbor.
The departure of the ships was de-
cided upon at the council of war at
which it was determined to negotiate
for a surrender of the fortress. Rear
Admiral Wren asked General Stoes-
sells permission to save the destroy
ers, etc., which was readily granted.
The destroyers, a transport and a
launch crept out of the harbor between
6 and IL Sunday night without encoun-
tering the Japanese. It was deter
mined to disarm the four destroyers,
which lashed themselves together.
In the absence OF a Chinese warship
the commissioner of customs took
charge of the Russian craft. The lat
ter ordered the crews of@the torpedo
boat destroyers and c number of in
valid Russian soldiers who were on
board of them to go to the Chinese
fort. where quarters for them are
available.

her innocence of any wrongdoing. His
only response was, .sI hope So"
Trust me, trust me" was the con-
stant cry of the woman.
The doctor was dazed for moment
