CHEFU, July 21.—Copies of the Novi newspaper published at Port Arthur, including the issue of July 11, reached here this afternoon. According to this paper the Japanese fleet, com- posed of six cruisers, five gunboats and twenty torpedo-boats, was seen early in the morning of July 10 to the south- east. At 8 o'clock in the morning part of the Russian fleet moved to the en- trance of the inner harbor. The Japan- esc torpedo-boats then approached, and at 10 they were fired on by the gun- boat Giliak and the cruiser Diana. The Japanese vessels retired. At 5 o'clock in the afternoon several torpedo-boats again approached Port Arthur. The cruiser Novik, with an escort of tor- advanced and retired the second time, During the night of the 10th sixteen apanese torpedo-boats formed for an attack; they were, however, discovered by the searchlights and retired under a heavy fire fro the forts. At a later hour that sa ight a single torpedo- boat made for the entrance of the har- bor at full speed, but she also retired under fire. Two Whitehead torpedoes which had failed to reach the cruisers at which they had been discharged by the Japanese were found the next day at the entrance to the harbor. On_July 11 the Japanese fire from the sea stopped and Japanese troops ascended Kinsan Heights, from the summit of which rapid fire guns were used against the Russians. During the evening of the 1ith the Russfan bat- teries sent many shells from three po- sitions against the Japanese on these heights. This fire was very effective. Later the Russian reserves, accom- panied by bands of musle, began a movement toward Ludsigdao. LI S TORPEDOES NEUTRAL VESSEL. Commander of Russian War Craft Ad- mits His Mistake, TIENTSIN, July 21.—A letter was received here to-day from Newchwang saying that the commander of a Rus- dian torpedo-boat had reported that while in the gulf of Pechili he had ac- cidentally torpedoed a British steam- ship. It is surmised here that the ves- sel referred to is the Hipsang, now five days overdue from Newchwang. The Hipsang belonged to the Indo-China Navigation Company. It is reported here that a heavy bombardment of Port Arthur occurred yesterday and heavy gun firing was heard at Newchwang also. i it Cossacks Earn Rewards for Bravery.

ST. PETERSBURG, July scare yesterday over the Malacca inci- | dent has given way to a calmer and| more rational view. The feeling is held in official circles here, where an | exact knowledge of the attitude of the Government 5, that the case will be speedily and satisfactorily adjusted. | The main difficulty is the excited state | of public feeling in the two countries; but the Russian Government, under the | directions of the Emperor, who is per- sonally anxious to avoid grounds for a quarrel, is apparently ready to meet Great Britain in the most friendly spirit. To the Emperor primarily, but also is due the possibility of war with Great Brit- ain. The Russian position can be stated in a few words. While not admitting that the Ru: n captain seized the Malacca without some wai nt, Russia will ac- cept without question Great Britain's assurance that the war munitions on board the vessel were Government stores bound for the naval station at Hongkong and order the immediate re- lease of the ship. At the same time, she will maintain her right to stop ves- sels believed to have contraband of war on board and detain them if the manpifests are not plain, as required by international law. ‘Whether Russia will agree to discuss the war status of the Red Sea cruisers is not plain, but if Great Britain in- sists seriously she may offer to refer this and other collateral questions to The Hague tribunal, It is said that the Foreign Office was not consulted regarding the. interna- tional questions involved when the de- cision to send the vessels of the volun- teer fleet and convert them into war- ships was reached, but this cannot be confirmed. The Emperor's brother-in- law, Grand Duke Mikhalovitch, who is a strong reactionary and who is said to have planned the cruise, seems to be responsible for the present entangle- ment. Nothing is ascertainable here regard- ing the reported pourparlers of the powers on the general subject of nen- tral commerce, but that these are pass- ing is not considered likely. The Prinz Heinrich incident seems certain of satisfactory adjustment. There appears to be no desire on the part of Germany to crowd Russia, that country being convinced that any wrong which may have been done will be righted and that proper reparation will be made. 3 —_——— THUNDERING AT RUSSIA. London Press All But Declares War Upon Czar's Nation. - LONDON, July 22.—The authoritative assurances that the Malacca will pe released, cabled by the press from St. Petersburg to the United States, do not appear in the British morning pa- pers, Special dispatches to a some- what similar effect from St. Petersburg do not allay the alarmist views.of the leading organs, which construe Pre- mier - Balfou post-midnight an- nouncement that the Governm had received no confirmation of the report in the casé of the Malacca to mean that the incident remains unsettled. Another cause for great apprehensi is the broader question of < Rus: right to send vessels of her volunteer fleet through the Dardanelles. A strik- ing evidence that the danger of the situation has not been mitigated in the least, s British official &nd pub- > opinion is entertained, is afforded ! by the Daily Telegraph, which ~nder a large heading, “‘An Acute Affair.” de- clares that ‘relations between Great Britain and Russia have reached the state of an acute crisis, but behind the incident of the Malacca is the far larger tion of the status of the so- called volunteer fleet. “It has, we believe, been made clear to the Russian Government that the transformation -of merchant vessels passing through the Dardanelles into armed cruisers cannot be recognized under any pretext whatever as justi- fying Russia’s interference with Brit- ish shipping. Tt is not impossible that as a concession to Russian dignity the Government may offer to permit the Malacca to put into ‘some neutral port,: where her cargo may be exam- ined and the statement verified that whatever’ munitions she carried were intended for the use of the British- China squadron.” In its editorial artigle the Daily Tel- egraph becomes even more alarmistic, declaring that upon Ruseia’s response to Lord Lansdowne “the issues of peace Or war are staked.” Continuing, the Daily Telegraph says that only in the event that Russia is preparing to ac- cept the British conditions on the larger issue would the Government, as a “’sop to Russian dignity,” permit the Malacca to be taken to a neutral port. “The main question to be settled be- tween the Russian and British Gov- ernments, if we are to maintain even technical relations of friendship,” says the Telegraph's editorial, “is the status of the Russian so-called volun- teer fleet. The point which has been made clear to the Czar's Government /by Lord Lansdowne is that Great Brit- | aing will not permit a lightning change | from a merchant vessel to an armed cruiser. In other words, if these un- chartered libertines of the Russian navy attempt to stop or search British ves- sels they will be called upon to desist and if they refuse to obey the demand they will be fired upon and sunk. We further understand that the Ottoman Gavernment will take steps to prevent the passage of the Janus-faced vessels through the elles and in the event of their evasion will notify our Government of their departure. These problems l_»r&n]w:ether independent of the war in the Far East. We are act- ing, and shall contfnue to act, not as the ally of Japan, but as the greatest naval power, protecting the highways . against the illicit inroads of pirates.” The significance of such language by a paper so much in the confildence of the Government and which has been strongly in favor of an Anglo-Russian entente can scarcely be overestimated. The Standard also sees little abate- ment in the gravity of the crisis as a | result of the statement from St. Peters- burg that the Malacca will be release: “Our dignity and self-respect,” say the paper, editorially, “demand that she be released before she reaches the Bal- tic. The admiral in command of the Mediterranean squagron has received his instructions. His cruisers are being rapidly directed to the proper points and we presume that if the Malacca is not voluntarily surrendered she will be intercepted before she can pass the Straits of Gibraitar.” The Daily Mail says there is reason to believe that the British garrisons in the Mediterranean Sea will be strength- ened by drafts from the United King- dom, while several vessels will be sent | to the vicinity of the Dardanelles and others to Port Said. Admiral Edward Field, retired, speak- ing at a public banquet last evening, 8aid he believed that the Russian Gov- ernment was trying to drag both France and Great Britain into the war. “Do not let Russia play her game,” he said, “but leave the matter to the diplomatists. The Malacca incident is safer in the hands of Mr. Balfour and | Lord Lansdowne than in those of the naval men.” The Times says if the report that Russia has ordered the release of the Malacca should be true, “it would be hailed with profound satisfaction by | British public_opinion, but it is clear from Premier Balfour's statement that no confirmation to this effect has yet been received at the Foreign Office.” PR AR RUSSIAN PRESS IS CALM. Hopes Great Britain Will “Remain Reasonable Over the Incident.” ST. PETERSBURG, July 22 — The general tone of the newspapers this morning, in commenting upon the Ma- lacca incident, is calm. The Novoe Vremya says that appear- ances militate against the belief that the Malacca’s cargo was intended for the British arsenal at Hongkong. It points out that the Malacca is now go- ing before a prize court, which will be able to determine the facts, and says: “In the meantime the hurrying of British warships to the East will not alter the cargo, nor will it transform it from Japanese contraband of war to British _property. It is hoped that Great Britain will remain reasonable over the incident.” The Russ says: “If Great Britain gives assurance that the cargo of the Malacca is Government property, we can assume that she will be released.” The Novosti expresses surprise at the storm raised over the stopping of the Malacca. It says that Russia was merely_acting within her rights; that Great Britain neveér hesitated to exer- | exert a strong influence toward a pa- cise her rights when at war and adds | that the right of search applies to all | neutrals. Touching the general question of the[era] Kuropatkin in a dis Dardanelles, the Novosti says it Is a| Emperor, dated July great hardship for Russia that a con- | vention closing the Black Sea exis but the fact remains that there is no reason why it should not be altered Britain to display a friendly spirit hy moving to amend the London convention of 1841 and that it would be | ese tied her hands in this direction.

The exact nature of Del- | casse's representations is not disclosed, | but they are understood to contemplate the release of the Malacca and suit- | able redress.
