TOKIO, July 6, 11 a. m.—Supple- mental dispatches indicate that the fight at Motienlin Pass on July 4 was a desperate hand-to-hand affair. A majority of the Japanese injured were wounded by bayonets. The Russians surrounded the outposts of the Japan- | ese, who fought until relief came. The Rufsians left fifty-three dead and forty wounded on the field. The Japanese left nineteen killed and thir- iy-eight wounded.

A few nights ago Admiral Togo at- tempted to repeat the Japanese exploit with torpedo-boats at Weihaiwei dur- ing the Chinese-Japanese war by send- ing torpedo-boat destroyers into the harbor of Port Arthur for the purpose of sinking ships at their anchorage, but the attempt ended in disastrous| | tailure, Four torpedo-boat destroyers succeeded in creeping into the harbor, which was not protected by booms, but only one escaped. Two were sunk by the shore batteries and one was crip- pled. The reckless bravery of the Japan- ese in going to almost certain destruc- tion excites nothing but admiration here. The channel at Port Arthur is S0 strewn with wrecks that evidently it was regarded as unnecessary to use (@ boom. On account of the difficulty |of getting into the harbor the feat | Is considered in naval circles to be fully as daring as that of the Japanese at Weihaiwei, where Japanese torpedo- hoats, in a storm and covered with ice, were jumped over the booms protect- irg the harbor and destxoyed the Chi- nese warships. So far as known the Japanese torpedo-boat destroyers did Lot even succeed in launching torpe- does. The exact date of the attack is not ascertained, but it is said to have oc- curred Saturday. No further detalls are obtainable. Though it is believed other destroyers participated in the at- tack, only four succeeded in getting in. The method whereby this information reached the authorities is not disclosed. 1f was announced from Tokio, July 3, | that a belated report from Admiral recorded a desperate and suc- cesgful torpedo attack at the entrance of Port Arthur during the night of June 27, in which a Russian guardship and a Russian torpedo-boat destroyer were sunk. PORT ARTHUR, July 3, 9 p. m., via | Tientsin, July 6.—Four Japanese tor- pedo-beat destroyers which made a de- termined attempt to enter Port Ar- thur were discovered by the shore bat- teries. One was sunk under Golden Hill andwanother under Twenty-two Battery. Another had its funnel shot | away and the fourth retreated. The spirits of the men composing the | garrison are excellent and food is plentiful. On Saturday fifty Japanese spies were captured at a place the name of | which is not given. Trains are running in both directions for a distance of sixteen miles from Port Arthur. g o AR RELATIVES OF JAPANESE PRISONERS ARE INFORMED Reports Are ~ Forwarded Through American Embassy to Mikado's Berlin Minister. ST. PETERSBURG, July 6, 6 p. m. Information for the relatives of Jap- anese prisoners is being forwarded through the American embassy to the Japanese Minister at Berlin. Since the inauguration of the prisoners’ bu- reau regular reports have been made. The British gunboat Espiegle has arrived at Newchwang, but the en- | trance is mined and she was unable to enter the mouth of the river. On her personal account the Em- press, since the opening of the war, has sent 10,000 packages containing coffee, tea, tobacco, etc.,, to the of- ficers and 300,000 packages to the men in the Far East. ; There is no information here con- firming the reports from Tokio and Newchwang that the Japanese are north of Kaichou. —_————— BERLIN, July 6.—The exports of Germany to the United States for the fiscal year were £103,450,620, a decrease of $14,450,154.
