CHEFU, July 7 (noon).—In fighting which occurred on July 4 for the pos- session of one of the hills northeast of Port Arthur the Russians lost accord- | ing to Chinese one hundred men killed and fifty men wounded. Fifty Chinese were sent out to bring in the Russian dead and wounded. The Japanese, having occupied the second range of hills around Port Ar- thur, are now massing men to march on the Russian marine camp that com- mands the principal pass through the hills, which is directly back of Port Ar- | thur. This camp is considered vital to | the safety of the fortress, and it is | guarded, according to the Chinese, by | twenty thousand marines and sailors. | In the Chino-Japanese war the Japan- | ese occupied this land for seven days | before they took Port Arthur. | The last junk to leave Port Arthur | was towed out of the harbor, and her passengers were compelled to remain below until she had cleared the harbor entrance. This measure was adopted to prevent the passengers from obtain- ing knowledge of conditions at the en- trance to the harbor. From a thoroughly reliable source it has been learned that ammunition at Port Arthur is plentiful, and at the ent rate of consumption it probably last longer than the provisions sup- ply There are enough of the latter to {last one year. Chinese say the en- trance to the harbor of Port Arthur is unsafe for the passage of vessels. Russian warship was slightly damaged while coming out recently. as a resuit of striking a sunken wreck, and two other warships collided in the entrance and had to undergo repairs. — DENY STORY OF A BATTLE. Russian Officials Discredit Report of an Engagement Near Liaoyang. ST. PETERSBURG, July 5:03 p. m.—The War Office denies that a sattle is in progress as reported by the Liagvang correspondent of the London | Telegraph, who in a dispatch says that a severe battle was proceeding twenty-five miles from there and a | number of wounded were being brought in from the mountains. The officials of the War Office say -that |the correspondent probably referred to the reconnaissance in force made Lieutenant General Count Keller July 4 in the direction of Motien Pass, | east of Liaoyang, full details of which were telegraphed the same day in a | long dispatch from General Sakharoff, | to whose army General Keller's corps | belongs. General Sakharoff reported | that the Russians lost more than 200 | officers or men in killed or wounded. | The report of the Daily Telegraph cor- | respondent was doubtless due to his seeing the stream of wounded brought in. The War Office has no news of fur- ther fighting of importance. R | JAPANESE HOLD THE PASS. Column of Brown Men on the Road Leading to Liaoyang. | TATCHEKIAO, Wednesday, July 6. | (Delayed in transmission.)—The Jap- {angse swarmed over the mountain crests early this morning and ad- | vanced on Kaichou, compelling Gen- eral Chirikoff with the center of the | Russian vanguard to fall back. A | whole brigade of Japanese, with | masses of cavalry, followed and oc- cupied the village of Nantay, driving out two companies of Rusisan infan- try and two companies of Cossacks, who were entrenched there. The Jap- anese arived within five miles of Kai- chou. It was then nightfall. General amsonoff made a heroic attempt to heck the Japanese, galloping out with guns to shell the Japanese left, and inflicting great loss on them, but fearing his retreat would be cut off, he fell bagk and is now holding Kal chou. General Chirikoff's force is sta- gioned southeast of Kaichou. The plans of the Japanes remain a mystery to the Russian commanders. ——a ?Rnsshns Capture Japanese Supplies. ! LIAOYANG, July 7 According to a’ trustworthy report, Major General Misichenko on July 5 captured a large convoy of Japanese provisions, prin- cipally of rice. In the convoy were fifty head of cattle. In view of the ex- treme heat most of the moving of troops is done at night. One | number of guns of the besiegers, as well as their positions, details of past operations and future plans are secrets which probably will not be revealea until the final and decisive action. Fragmentary information from vari- ous sources, especially Chinese, reaches Japan, but its publication here or the sending of it abroad is forbia- PEREE R ERLERRRREY RERRERE BERERRE RRAREY, RERRR RRRRERE RRRRRRE RRRERERRRRY RRRRRe e den under severe penalty. ) . No foreigner accompanies either the | Japanese forces which are besieging rthur, the army under Generai | Oku, or the army which was landed at Takushan, and the newspaper corre- spondents and foreign attaches with General Kuroki are made to remain within a circle having a radius of a | little more than half a mile. The Russians are forced to travel | afield along a Japanese front which | extends for 250 miles in order to deter- mine, by actual scouting, the positions and the strength of their enemy, and added to this they must discount a series of clever feints and ruses de- | signed to deceive them. Many false reports concerning the war operations are being sent abroad; these the Japanese welcome as being Jjust so much more chaff and sand In the eves of the enemy The curtain now down over the | theater of war will, however, soon be raised, and it is confidently expected that the lifting will reveal the Japan- ese to be in po: on of splendid | strategical advantages, with men and | Buns enough to carry the present cam- | paign to a successful conclusion. | = ST. PETERSBURG, July 7, 1:06 p. m. | It is reported that the Emperor will leave St. Petersburg Saturday for the | Volga region and will visit Kaizan, Penza, Samara and Syzran_to bid fare- | well to the Fifth and s;x‘: Siberian | army corps, which will be held in re- | serve at Irkutsk and Omsk. | According to official information re- | ceived by the War Office the Japanese | began their advance toward Liaoyang | June 25, one column moving along the main and the other over the direct road, the former reaching Ouhfang- | kou, ten miles beyond Fenshui Pass, and the latter reaching Llaokhol Pass, twelve miles northwest of the Motien Pass. They halted at these points un- | i1(1 July 3, the Russians falling back to | | Langtse Pass, thirty miles from Liao- { yang. The Japanese advance guard, consisting of 1500 men, was only two | miles east of the Russian position. The next day occurred Keller's reconnais- | sance in force, when the Japanese were discovered to be trying a flank move- | ment in the direction of Liandiansian. This is the last fighting reported north- ward, but still farther north a Japan- | ese column is continuing to hold an- other Fenshui Pass, twelve miles northwest of Saimatsza, on the road leading to Liaoyang and Mukden and 857 miles east of the latter place. At this time the Japanese main forces are on the Siuyen-Haicheng and Kaichou- Tatchekiao roads, at Vandiapudze and Ahiaheouya, respectively, thirty-seven | miles from Haicheng and fifty miles from Tatchekiao and Kaichou. ——— VISIT GENSAN. | Port A | RERER IRRRERY RRRRERE RRREEREERRY.

LONDON, July 7.—A dispatch to a news agency from St. Petersburg says Vice Admiral Skrydloff has reported that on July 8 the Russian cruisers commanded by Vice Admiral Bezo- brazoff met a Japanese squadron con- sisting of three battle-ships, four pro- tected cruisers and torpedo-boats in the Korean Gulf and turned back. The Japanese pursued the Russians | and fired on them without result. | Japanese torpedo-boats then attacked ! the Russians, which returned the at-| tack, and Admiral Bezobrazoft be- | lieves that two or three torpedo-boats were sunk. The next morning the | Japanese had disappeared. The Rus- sians sustained no damage. Admiral Skrydloff also reports, the news agency dispatch continues, that Russian torpedo-boats have again vis- ited Gensan, burned a tug and de- stroyed numerous other boats. Ja; anese troops fired at the torpedo- boats, which replied. The Russians sustained no losses. The same dispatch says that Ad- miral Skrydloff confirms the capture of a third British steamer, which the | admiral says, was loaded with timbers and sleepers for the Fusan and Seoul railroad. | The foregoing dispatch may be the Russian report of the meeting July 1 between the Vladivostok squadron | and the Japanese squadron command- ed by Vice Admiral Kamimura which | was cabled to the Associated Press from Tokio on July 3. The steamer ;‘e{er;ed to Is probably the Chelten- | am.

S Through mistaking a bottle of ‘car- bolic acid that was on the same shelf for nerve tonic, Mrs. Ernestine Lach~ man of 1008 Golden Gate avenue lost her 'life yesterday, morning. The two bottles were on the same shelf and similar in appearance. Mrs. Lachman, who has been ailing for .several years, was with her daughter, Mrs. Laucker, in the house at the time. The mother went to the bathroom to take some medicine. Her daughter heard her scream and when he reached her, she heard her moth- er say “I've made a mistake.” The daughter summoned help, but Mrs. Lachman died on the way to the Cen- tral Emergency Hospital.

His trouble is the resutl of a recent tattooing experi- ence in Samoa. As has already been reported, De Bathe suffered an attdck of blood poisoning after he had had his leg tattooed by a Samoan native and was compelled to come to this city for treatment. Since his arrival here inflammation set in and produced so much pain that he finally placed himself in the care of Dr. George F. Shiels, who advised him yesterday to go to the hospital. In discussing the case last evening Dr. Shiels said that no operation would be required, as it wag simply a case of inflammation. — e Admiral Skrydloff Leaves Newchwang.
