GET PASI TOGO Big Squadron Leaves Post Arthur and a Sea Fight Has Been Fought. -- -JAPS GO AT ONCE IN PUESTJIT Xnroki Waits Too Long to Force a Big Land Battle. Kuropatkin Retreating North or Uo-Yang-Tokio Advices Deny the Ileportetl Heavy Jap , Losses at Tort Arthur. Tokio. Ans. 11. The Russian fleet merged from Tort Arthur Wednesday, and a severe engagement with the Japanese fleet, lasting all day followed. The Japanese destroyers attacked the Russians at night. The results of the engagements are unknown. The Russian battleships ICetvizan and Pobie--da were seen outside Port Arthur this morning. Chefoo, Aug. 11, 750 a. m. A Russian torpedo boat destroyer entered Chefoo harbor at 550 o'clock this morning and reported that six Russian battleships, four cruisers and half of the torpedo boats escaped from Tort Arthur yesterday morning. The torpedo boat destroyer left Tort Arthur last night, bringing in five passengers who stated that the Japanese fleet Is pursuing the Russians and that a battle on the open sea is expected. RomIkd Army lias Fallen Hack. London, Aug.-11. A correspondent of The Daily Mail who visited Siumintin, which Is on neutral Chinese territory about thirty miles west of 3Iukde.n, cables the following under .date of Aug. 10: 'There is an enormous garrison at Mukden, reinforcements having arrived very rapidly. There are no Japanese north of the ity. A force of some strength lies twenty-five miles to the south, and there is another Japanese army live milest east of Liao-Yang.' 1 learn from a reliable source that the main Russian ar uy has fallen back on ChiuTsu." Japs Have Delayed Too Long:. St. Petersburg, Aug. 11. Again the chance of a decisive battle between General Kuropatkin and the commander of the Japanese armies seems to be disappearing. According to a statement issued by the general staff rains are again falling over a wide area In Manchuria, with the prospect of impeding operations; but even more important is the information reaching the Associated Press from an exceptional source that the Japanese have -delayed too long. General "Kuropatkin Las now withdrawn the bulk of his Army safely north of Liao-Yang, and is still retreating leaving only a strong rear guard line southeast of LiaYang to contest the advance when it comes. Jap Stories of Port Arthur. Tokio, Aug. 11. Official confirmation Is lacking, but the Japanese Mail, in a summary of the Port Arthur stories current here, says that It is probable that all of the Russian outer "works there have been captured and that the Japs are now in easy rang of the main defenses, anl are mount Ing heavy guns. It is also alleged that the stories of tremendous Japanese losses in the assaults on tbv outer defenses are false. ATTACK BT CHINESE BANDITS 3talana Reported to II are Lout Heavily in Men and Supplies. London, Aug. 11. The Tien-Tsin correspondent of The Standard says that 3,000 Chinese bandits attacked the Russian camp In the Tieh pass, Aug. 2. The Russians were taken unawares and had many killed. They also lost a quantiliy of ammunition and supplies. St. Petersburg, Aug. 11, 3:30 a. m. Telegrams from the front are not only badly delayed, but are arriving with little reference to the sequence of their filing. A dispatch from LiaoYang, dated Aug. 7, reports that there was continued fighting Aug. 6 and 7 at lloutsiatsze, but gives no details The dispatch adds that a battle was expected at Aisyadzkan. A dispatch to the Bourse Gazette ct St. Petersburg, from Liao-Yang on Aug. 0, said auother great battle had been fought in the neighborhood of lloutsiatsze (on the railroad about fourteen miles west of Liao-Yang), In which the Japanese losses were esti mated to have been from 10,000 .to 13,000 and the Russian losses Insig nificant. A dispatch to the Associated Press from SL Petersburg on the same day aid that The Hourse Gazette dispatch was believed to refer to the fighting of July 30, July 31 and Aug. 1. The war office had not received any re ports of later fighting and the officials pointed out that Iloutsiatze was a couple of miles westward of Yushu pass, whence the Russians fell back on Anplng after the battle of July 31. President in Political Confab. Washington, Aug. 11. President Roosevelt had as his guests at dinner Secretaries Hay and Morton. Attorney General Moody and Secretary Loeb. Following the dinner there was a political conference lasting until after 11 p. m. Chefoo, Aug. 12, 0 a. m. The Russian protected cruisers Askold and Novik and one torpedo boat destroyer en tered the Kiau-Chau bay last night and exchanged salutes with German vessels. Crcnstadt, Aug. 2. Admiral Birileff, in command of the naval forces here, has ordered Vice Admiral Ro jestvensky, commander of the Baltic fleet, and his staff to take up their quarters on board the battleship Souvaroff, and to be hr readiness to sail

Chefoo, Aug. 12, 850 a. m. At 320 o'clock this morning: the Japanese torpedo boat destroyers Asashio and KasnmU which entered the harbor under cover of darkness last night, sent a boarding party against the Russian torpedo boat destroyer RIeshitelnl, which had previously been disarmed by the Chinese. After a fierce fight

the boarding party hoisted the Japan ese flag on the Rieshitelni and towed her out of the harbor in a northerly direction. Of her crew of forty-seven only seventeen have been accounted for. Captain Reported Killed. Captain Shestakovsky is reported killed. Seven .swam ashore, landing near the United States consulate. Some were picked up by sampans, and three, including a lieutenant, were rescued by a light 6hip. The Japanese allege that they sent in a gig to the Rieshitelni under a flag of truce a lieu tenant and interpreter who made a demand that the Russians come outside and fight. Russians Charged with Treachery. The Russian captain replied that his ship had been disarmed, her engines disabled and that the whole matter was in the hands of the Chinese. The Japanese were asked to investigate the disarmament and sent a party on board. The Japanese interpreter al leges that he overheard 'the Russian captain give a hurried order Jn a low tone, the words not being distinguish able to the interpreter. Immediately following the captain seized the Japanese lieutenant and Jumped over board with him. Then the Fight Began. Meanwhile the Japanese had their searchlights turned on the Russian ship. From the deck of the lightship observers could see this act. which was followed by the shooting of rifles and saber strokes, and Russians jumping overboard. The fighting had lasted ten minutes, when an explosion followed. The explosion blew away the main bridge, but did no damage to the hulL The Russians by this time were mostly overboard. The Japanese at once hoisted their flag. Complications Are Looked For. Presently a searchlight from the Chinese cruiser Hal Chi disclosed a Chinese cutter alongside the Asashio. It remained there only a minute, and then went alongside the Kasumi. where it stopped an equal length of time. The cutter then returned to th6 Hai Chi. The inaction of the Chinese fleet is unexplained so far. It is believed serious international complications will result from the incident. There are unconfirmed stories In circulation that the Japanese fired at the Russians when they were in the water and that they refused to rescue any of them. i . . FACTS PRECEDING THE FIG LIT Jap Eaters the U arbor Hungry for a Whack at the Run. As soon as the Rieshitelni arrived here the Chinese authorities demanded that she be dismantled or that she leave port. Her engines were already disabled. The Russian commander agreed to the demand. Two large Japanese torpedo destroyers which had been hovering outside the harbor entered under the cover of darkness last night, showing no lights, and anchored a quarter of a mile from the Russian torpedo boat destroyer, which had been moved to a permanent anchorage. The correspondent of the Associated Tress was not allowed to board the Japanese vessels. The Japanese offices said they would depart at daylight. It is understood that the Chinese admiral discovered the presence of the Japanese torpedo boat destroyers and presented the same demands to them that he had earlier given to the Russian destroyer Rieshitelni namely, either to leave port or disarm. Darkness prevented a close Inspection of the Japanese destroyers, but outwardly they' appeared to -be In good condition. A Japanese officer who was talking over the side of one of the vessels with the correspondent of the Associated Tress was reprimanded by a superior officer, and compelled to cease. NAVAL BATTLE HAS BEEN FOCGQT Nobody Seems to Know Bow It Resulted, Howerer. Washington, Aug. 12. The state department has received the following cablegram from the United States legation at Tokio, dated yesterday: "Yesterday the Russian fleet which has been harboring at Port Arthur came out and there ensued a battle with the combined Japanese fleet which continued throughout the day. The re sult has not yet been officially an nounced." Chefoo, Aug. 12. According to the latest information obtainable the Rus sian squadron has not returned to Port Arthur. On the night of Aug. 9 heavy cannonading was heard at sea In the direction of Port Arthur. Advices from the fortress say that the Japanese bombarded the town, placing their batteries in dense kaolin fields, where they were effectually masked. The shells dropped mainly in the west era basin, where the squadron was an chored. Many of the shells fell upon the battleship Retvizan, but no serious damage was done either to the town or the fleet Later the forts got the range of the Japanese field batteries and drove them out from their shelter in the kaolin. On the morning of Aug. 10 the squad ron put to sea, where heavy cannonading was heard for several hours. The result of the battle is not known and nothing definite has been learned regarding either squadron. It is reported that the Japanese protected cruiser Kasagi was sunk off Round island in the fleet engagement. Captain Shestakovsky, of the Russian torpedo destroyer Rieshitelni, which emerged from Port Arthur with the fleet Wednesday morning and arrived here, says that the large Russian warships left Port Arthur but refuses to say that the fleet has gone on an extended cruise, leaving the inference in a long interview that the warships expect to Join the Vladivostok squadron, which he said had been recruited by. the purchase of ships from the Argentine republic. Captain Shestakovsky has stated that the recent firing heard at Chefoo evidently occurred at Port Arthur, where the Japanese continue to attack daily with scarcely less energy than

they manlfesTed during the severe three days fighting the latter part of July.

BOUND FOR VLADIVOSTOK Squadron There to Meet the Fleet That Fought with Togo. St Petersburg, Aug. 12, 1:37 a. m. Public anxiety regarding the fate of the Tort Arthur squadron which has reached the highest pitch re mained unrelieved when the people of St Petersburg retired tonight The news of the dismantling of the tor pedo boat RIeshitelnl at Chefoo has not caused surprise. It is understood that she was deliberately sacrificed so that Vice Admiral Shrydloff might be apprised of the departure of the Rus sian vessels from Port Arthur In or der that he might start out with the Vladivostok squadron for the purpose of meeting them. It is denied at the admiralty that the squadron left Tort Arthur because the situation of the fortress was desperate. The admiralty authorities say it is more than likely that with the Japanese close up to the perimeter of the fortress the warships were unable to render further effective aid, and that their safety was endangered by the plunging shells dropping from the Wolf hüls, St Petersburg, Aug. 13, 4 a. m. It is stated here that both France and Germany are supporting at Peking the protest of the Russian government against the action of the Japanese torpedo boat destroyers in attacking the Russian torpedo boat destroyer Rieshi telni In the harbor of Chefoo. Tokio, Aug. 13. Admiral Togo has reported as follows: "On Aug. 10 our combined fleet attacked the enemy's fleet near Gugan rock. The Russian vessels were emerging from Port Arthur trying to go south. We pursued the enemy to the eastward. Severe fighting lasted from 1 o'clock WednesREAR ADMIRAL WITHOl T. rCommander of Port Arthur nLl day afternoon until sundown. Toward the close the enemy's fire weakened remarkably. Ills formation became confused, and then his ships scattered. The Russian cruisers Askold and Novik and several torpedo boat destroyers fled to the southward. Other of the enemy's ships retreated separately toward Port Arthur. Czarevitch Probably Sank. "We pursued them, and It appears that we Inflicted considerable damage. We found life buoys and other articles belonging to the Russian battleship Czarevitch floating at sea. The Czarevitch probably was sunk. We have received no reports from the torpedo boats and the torpedo boat destroyers which were engaged in the attack on the ships of the enemy. The Russian vessels, with the exception of the Askold, the Novik, the Czarevitch and the cruiser Pallada, appear to have returned to Port Arthur. Our damage was slight. Our fighting power has not been impaired." Reports of Casualties. Tokio, Aug. 13. The casualties in the Japanese navy on Wednesday, Aug. 10, numbered 170. Shanghai, Aug. 13. The Russian protected cruiser Askold arrived at Woosung yesterday with her fifth funnel gone close to the deck, all the funnels riddles with shell holes, one gun on the port side dismounted and several large shell holes above the water line.

A late report from Tslngchou says that the Russian warships there are the battleShip Czarevitch, the protected cruisers Pallada and Novik, and three torpedo boat destroyers. The Czarevitch, which is badly damaged, is being repaired with German assistance, it Is alleged. A report has also been received here to the effect that Admiral Wlthoft was killed in the naval battle of Round island last Wednesday. A strong detachment of Japanese warships is reported to have sailed sonth for the purpose of intercepting the Vladivostok fleet, which it is believed has not yet effected a junction with the vessels reported to have been purchased by Russia from the Argen tine government Noon. A message has Just been received here saying that the Russian cruiser Novik escaped from Tslngchou at the expiration of the time limit of twenty-fourhours set upon her remain Ing there. London, Aug. 13. According to the correspondent of The Morning Post at Shanghai the Russian torpedo boat destroyer Grosovoy has reached there. CUTTING OCT OF TBE RIESHITELNI Chinese Admiral Charges the Japs with Violation of Their Word. Chefoo, Aug. 13. Interviews with Admiral Sah and Captain Ching, who is in command of the Chinese war ship Hai-Yung, indicate that the Chi ,nese naval authorities were more ac tive in the matter of the cutting out

-1 t V"4 T Mir äW

of the Russian torpedo boat destroyer here than was at first supposed. When the first Japanese torpedo boat destroyer, towing the Rieshitelni, departed to the northward the second Japanese destroyersteered a course past the flagship and the cruiser Hai-Chl. The latter cleared for action and signalled to the destroyer to stop. This was done. Admiral Sah informed the commander of the Japanese destroyer that the Rieshitelni must be returned, as neutrality had .been, flagrantly violated. To this the commander of the second destroyer replied that he would overtake the first destroyer and return to Chefoo. Admiral Sah accepted the word of honor of the Japanese commander, and allowed him to depart. The Chinese admiral Is deeply chagrined at this occurrence and is ill as a result

RUSSIA FILES A PROTEST International Question liaised by the Jap Break at Chefoo. St Petersburg, Aug. 13. The Associated Press is able to announce that Russia already has protested formally to Japan, through France, against the action of the Japanese toryedo boat destroyers in attacking the Russian torpedo boat destroyer Rieshitelni at Chefoo and towing her away from that port, and that the protest has been communicated to the powers. All arms had been removed from the vessel and her engines had been made useless. Aside from the questionable right of an uninjured warship to seek a sanctuary in a neutral port when not forced to do so by weather conditions or lack of coal and provisions, ull the diplomats agree as to the absolute illegality of belligen-nt ships entering neutral ports ana there committing hostile acts. Washington, Aug. 13. The capture by the Japanese of the Russian destroyer Rieshitelni in the harbor of Chefoo has caused concern, for it Is realized that there Is In this Incident the possibility of serious international trouble. Berlin, Aug. 13. The Boersen Courier tempers its declaration that international law has been defied by Japan by the seizure of a disarmed ship in neutral waters by intimating that the Russians were perhaps the aggressors. The Vorwaerts is the only dissenter from the general view that the Russian ships at Tslngchou must either depart within twenty-four hours or be disarmed, alleging that as fugitives they must be disarmed and that there is no other alternative. London, Aug. 13. The general opinion of the London morning newspapers is that Japan will make atonement for the Rieshitelni affair by restoring the ship to the Chinese authorities. Paris, Aug. 13. The Rieshitelni incident Is severely commented on by all the Paris morning newspapers, and the lack of action on the part ofthe Chinese is much criticised. Dally Fighting at Port Arthur. Chefoo. Aug. 13 A junk which has arrived here, having left Port Arthur on Aug. vS, brings confirmation of previous reports of severe fighting, day and night. One Japanese shell struck the corner of a building in Port Arthur aud killed or wounded U00 people. It is roughly estimated that the Japanese are from five to eight miles from Port Arthur. Final Assault at Port Arthur? Tieu-Tsiii, Aug. 13. It is believed here that the Japanese are delaying the general engagement at Liao-Yang until after the fall of Port Arthur, where the final assault is thought to be taking place. Populist Notlflers Named. Albany, X. V., Aug. 13. Jay W. Forrest, chairman of the Populist noti fication committee, says that Thomas E.

VETS TO RUN A ROAD

Street Railway To Be Built Out to the Lafayette Soldiers' Home. STEEP GRADE ON THE LINE Company Refuses to Run the CarsSnake Story That Takes the Belt State Notes. Lafayette, Ind., Aug. 12. The war Teterans at the Indiana State Soldiers Home, north of the city, will operate street cars. A new line will be built up the hill to the home, and while the service will be under the supervision of the street railway company the old soldiers will run the risk or operating the cars. The street car company would not assume the responsibility of running up and down the steep grade, and the only way in which the veterans could secure the service was to operate the cars themselves. The company is under contract to lay tracks on the new roadway to the home grounds, but it cannot be compelled to operate cars. No I.Ioe Is a Money Barer. The street ear line ends at Tecumseh trail, and since it wastaken away from the top off the hill three years ago the old soldiers have been practically imprisoned in the home grounds. Some of the veterans have been growing feebler all the time, and trips to and from the city are growing more and more infrequent Commandant Smock states that the veterans at the home 800 in all have more money now than they used to have when the car line ran direct from the grounds to the city,' and the leaves of absence have been issued at greater intervals than heretofore. Vets Have Been Accumulating. The pension money which goes into the home is the only means of support that many of the veterans have, and some spent it almost as fast as they received it. Now the savings department conducted by the home officials is in a flourishing condition, and many of the veterans have accumulated several hundred dollars in the last three years. The operation of cars in the home grounds is expected to besln about Nov. 1. The legislature provided $15,000 for the construction of a winding roadway, which was planned to do away with the steep grade. The car line will parallel the roadway to the summit of the hill.

The hired man was called, and he climbed to the roof and at tempted to dislodge the reptile with a club, but failed. Then a fire was started in the grate, and after a time the snake fell from the chimney, smothered by heat and flame. The reptile was four feet in length and mottled with yellowish and dark brown pots. Near the tail was a pair of ciimbeTS. It is the first of Its specie ever seen in this country.
