stOesseI pefends Hls surrender.

London, Feb 16.--rhe correspondent
at Port Said of the Standard gives an
interview with General Stoessel, chief
ly denying the charges made by the
Pel0in correspondent of the Times con-
corning the surrender of Port Arthur
and its defensive condition.
General Stoessel attributed the Jap
anese success in great measure to the
|superlative quality Of their drilling
tools, as compared with those OF the
Russians, which quickly detegdorated
when used against hard rock. The Gem
eral emphatically declared that all the
public descriptions of the second line
of forts were purely Imaginary. These
forts, he said, were only temporary de-
fences.
General StOessel further declared that
the strength of the garrison never
amounted TO $4,000 men. AT the end OF
April. before investment became total
the Russian forces on the Kwantune
Peninsula were only 19.6ss. He adhered
to the original reasons given for the
surrender. and throughout the inter
view appeared to be bitter Whenever
the navy was referred TO.

ALCOHOL
and BLOOD
Nasty Cutting ARRAY
in the Mountains in
which three are hurt.

A sensational cutting affray occurred
at tho home of Anton Slette in the
mountains northwest of here on Sat-
urday night or early Sunday morning.
It was thought for time that Anton
Slette would die but at this time he
seems on a fair way to recovery.
The trouble started from a Jug of
alcohol which one Ronning brought
to Slette' early Saturday evening" At
this time Mrs. Slette and her son
were at home. Ronning and young
Slette drank freely. The elder Slette
came from town about eight clock
and drank three punches. The young
men got noisy and he tried to put
them out and general fight followed.
The step son says the old man tried to
get gun and Ronning used knife.
The injuries we're pretty we'll dis
tributed. The elder Slette got cut
on the right arm. another over right
lung and into second rib, another on
left side that caused hemorrhage. He
is also badly bruised about the body.
The stepson was stabbed in right side
the knife penetrating the lung. Mrs.
Slette got cut across palm of the left
hand in trying to stop the fight.
Mrs. Slette and her son left the
house after the fight ended and spent
the night at Iver Listoe's. Ronning
went to neighbor's and being asked
regarding the blood on his hands said
he fell down and hurt them.
Ronning and young Slette we're ar
rested on Sunday. They are quite re-
ticent about the cause of the quarrel
but the Slettes claim Ronning is res
ponsible for all the knife wounds.
There seems to have been no i'll feel
ing between the parties prior to the
drunken row on Saturday night.
