Hazardous Undertaking to Carry Supplies for Relief of the Garrison. LR LIAOYANG, May 14.—Nemirovich | Danchenko, the Russian war corre- | spondent, concludes his personal nar- rative of his escape from Port Arthur, | the first part of which was cabled yes- | terday as follows: “Having reached the flaming vil- lage of Wafandian, I wished to pro- ceed thence to Liaoyang and afterward join General Zassulitch eastward. With nightfall from the hills outlined against the blaze of fire, shots were heard occasionally. The locomotives showed no signs of starting. Chinese approached us with complaints against the Governor, who had executed eight more of our friends. The Chinese frightened, huddled around our camp- fire. The telegraph wires were work- ing all night with headquarters. At daybreak a monster ammunition train, drawn by several engines, arrived. It was essential to take that train through to Port Arthur, an exception- ally dangerous undertaking in view of the reappearance of the enemy. Two squadrons of “frontier guards were sent out to reconnoiter the neighbor- hood. double row of rails against rifle fire and had on board a company of Balkal engineers. “A locomotive was sent ahead to act as a scout, in charge of Lieutenant Zavadasky, who acted as engineer, and Lieutenant von Roop, two armed stokers and the correspondent of the Associated Press. Our mission was to ! signal the train, which was following ten minutes behind, if there was any danger that it would attract the | enemy’s atention, in which case the | train would have been blown up by | the Russians. Colonel Spiridorof | | (who, with a force of officers and men | | of the Amur Railroad battalion, had | come over the damaged line, repairing | it as he came) gaye the signal and we moved off, with the engine swathed in clouds of smoke from the burning station of Wafandian. ““As we drew close on both sides were verdure covered slopes, with blue hills in the distance and occasional glimpses {of the emerald sea. Chinese villages and mintature gardens alone relieved | the monotony of the picturesque scene. | The typhoon had passed and there was nothing to prevent the enemy's land- ing, Doubtless it was proceeding not far away. “I saw Chinese women and children fleeing with their families and valu- ‘ahle& We eagerly scanned the treach- | erous nooks and gorges of the hills, { where the enemy might be lurking. A single successful shot from a hidden | battery might blow up the mammoth train behind. There was no sign of life at Polandien. | “The charred station-house was as desolate as the grave. We overtook the cavalry scouits and thereafter act- ed as our own outposts. We found the bridges, one of which had been re- paired by Colonel Spiridorof on the previous day, were still guarded by our sentries, who reported that the epemy had not appeared. The loco- motive steamed on quickly, without encountering any sign of life, as far as Sanshilipou. There the troops were drawn up to meet us. We heard the good news that thirty-six men who had been surrounded by the enemy the previous day and who had been vainly sought by the Kinchou garri- son, had succeeded iIn breaking through the enemy’s lines unaided. | “After again starting we saw a de- tachment of cavalry in the midst of a cloud of dust, near the seashore, and stopped to see whether they were friends or foes. Through fleld glasses | we recognized Russian uniforms. It was a squadron sent by General Fock to meet and escort us. The soldiers | hurrahed and galloped forward with | Joytul faces. “At Kinchou General Fock and his | staff came to offer their congratula- | tions on the accomplishment of such | a dangerous and important mission. | “‘Now that you have fed Port Ar- ! thur in every sense we need have no The cars were armored by a | ADVERTISEMENTS. of the place of purchase and upward. upward. aN A Word About, Clothes To the Man Who Brings His Wife The wife as a rule knows more about cloth quality and is a better judge of style.

Let Russia, it is added, not give way to excitement, but leok forward cheerfully. “Fresh troops are arriving uninter- ruptedly. The Siberian soldiers have a splendid appearance. They are great- ly superior to the troops from'the Cen- tral Russian provinces. “Liaoyang is packed with supplies. “The Russian commanders do not believe the enemy will prove very en- ergetic. They think the Japanese move against Port Arthur was a ruse, and that their chief attack is intend- ed to be made on Liaoyang.” ———————— Caiifornians in New York.

He says that when the detachment of the Fourth Regiment of the Impe- rial Guards, which occupied Kasan, re- ceived the counter attack from the Russlans three Japanese soldiers fell | into the handsof enemy and were taken | prisoners. The mutilated corpse of one of them, named Tatsujiro Watanabe, was afterward found, according to the correspondent, hanging to a tree on the bank of the Yalu. “The dead mdn's face had been stripped of its skin," continues the correspondent, “and his feet had been cut. The mutilations were horrible. It is believed that the other two men met the same fate, but that when the corpses of the three were rolled over the bank only that of Wat- anabe caught on a tree, the others fall- ing into the river.” | The publication of these charges | has caused iIntense indignation. PRI R AT TALKING OF PEACE. [TURKS DESTROY MANY VILLAGES PARIS, May 14.—The Foreign Of- fice here is without additional detalls of the widespread devastation wrought by Turkish troops in the Sassoun dis- trict of Armenia. The French press advices giving the number of killed as 100 on each side are considered to be far short of showing the magnitude of the affair. The burned villages oc- cupied the most inaccessible portion of the empire and officials here say it probably will be impossible to secure | details before a month has passed. The scene of the affair is in a valley surrounded by mountains. The natives have been constantly agitating against Turkey. The Sultan therefore wished to exterminate this disorderly element, but while not countenancing Armenian agitation, the signatories of the Ber- lin treaty have strongly disapproved of Turkey’s methods in crushing agita- tion. It is the belief in official circles that the international Armenians will use the new outrages as a lever to induce the civilized powers to unite in deci- sive action against Turkey. e e——————— HEAVY PAYMENTS MADE.

Her orders were simply to come to Chefu. Rear Admi- ral Stirling sald that the reason for his coming and his future movements are unknown to him. In view of the pre- vious order that no ships should come north of Shanghai, the movement of the New Orleans is consillered signifi- cant here. One interpretation of the arrival of the cruiser is that the United States ‘will insist upon the neutrality of Newchwang when the Russians evacuate that place. The New Orleans is too large to ascend the Liao River. The cruiser New Orleans is at Chefu in accordance with a recent order for- warded from Washington to Rear Ad- miral Cooper, commander in chief of the Asiatic squadron. Owing to the danger threatening Newchwang from hordes of bandits who were awaiting the departure of the Russians to begin depredations, it was deemed advisable | to protect American and other foreign interests there until the Japanese ar- rived. A cruiser and gunboat were ac- cordingly ordered to. Chefu to hold themselves in readiness for service at Newchwang, the gunboat to be util- ized in shallow waters. — e Burned by Blazing Oil.
