The Red Cross agents worked bravely all day under fire. 8 W JAPAN INVITES SURRENDER. Would Prevént Needless Sacrifice of Life at Port Arthur.

This | would prevent, they say, meaningless | sacrifice of human lives. However, they maintain that if the Russians persist in their defense of the fortress their efforts will prove useless. One of the newspapers here, a Gov- ernment organ, says that plans have been matured by which the fortress will be razed with terrible slaughter of Russians, but with comparative im- munity to the Japanese.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—“The recog- nition in principle of the treatment’of coal and other fuel and raw cotton as absolutely contraband of war might ul- tifmately lead to a total inhibition of | the sale by neutrals to the people of | could be finally converted to military Such an extension of the princi- | ple by treating coal and other fuel and | raw cotton as absolutely contraband of war simply because they are shipped by a neutral to a non-blockaded port of a belligerent would not appear to be in accord with the reasonable and lawful | rights of a neutral commerce.” This is a summary of a decla_ratlon[ by Secretary Hay on the right of neu- tral nations during war. It was em- bodied in a circular to the American | Embassadors in Europe and was issued from the State Department on June 10| last, but for some reason was wlthheld\ from the public, although certain shlp- pers who inquired at the dgpartment| after their rights were supplied with copies. The circular is based on a declara- tion by Rugsia that cotton, naphtha, alcohol an@ other fuel were contraband. Secretary Hay directs attention to an incident in 1884, when Russia “took oc-| casion to dissent vigorously from the | inclusion of coal among articles con- | | traband of war, and declared that she) \\ould categorically refuse her consent | to any articles in any treaty or instru- | ment whatever that would imply its recognition as such.” Due note is made of the fact that raw | cotton could be made up into clothing | for the mlll!ary uses of a belligerent, but the Secretary adds that a mi !aryl use for (he supply of an army or a gar- | rison might possibly be made of food- stuffs of every description which might | be shipped from neutral ports to the| blockaded ports of a belligerent. | “The principle under consideration | might therefore,” he says, “be extended | s0 as to apply to every article of human use, band of war simply because it might | ultimately become useful to a belliger- | which might be declared contra- | The 3ecretary speaks of coal and oth- | er fuel and cotton as being employed | many innocent purposes, and that many nations are dependent on them for the conduct of Innflcnshe: <, adding: ‘And no sufficient presumption of an! intended warlike use seems to be af-| icd by the mere fact of their des- on to a belligerent port.” | NDON, Aug. 8—The Times and ing contain editorials strongly approv- |ing the circular issued by Hay, the American ' Secretary of State, as to what comstitutes contraband of war. “Mr. Hay lays down a sound and We of the United States and that | uphold them.” it CZAR MUST MAKE REPARATION. England Not Satisfied With Explana- tion of Knight Commander Affair. LONDON, Aug. 8.—In the House of Commons to-day Premier Balfour, re- plying to a question on the subject, of the British steamship Knight Com- mander by the Viadivostok squadron. The Premier made a general state- |ment of the Government’s views on incidents. He pointed out that the Government’s objection to the seizure of the Malacca was based entirely on the British contention that ships is- suing from the Black Sea under the commercial flag of Russia were in- competent to transform themselves into cruisers. “I confess,” said Balfour, “that I have not the smallest feeling of regret that we did our best to meet the Rus- sian Government, who on their side made no impracticable suggestions in the matter. Regarding the Knight Commander, she was sunk on the ground that it was extremely difficult to bring her into port and because, in the opinion of the Russian officers, she was carrying contraband. We ad- here to our opinion that these circum- stances, whether true or not, afford no excuse for sinking a neutral ship.” e RUSSIA YIELDS TO BRITAIN. Knight Commander Case to Be Re- viewed by a Special Court. ST. PETERSBURG, Aug.” 8.—The case of the British steamship Knight Commander will be reviewed by a spe- cial admiralty court. On agcount of the strong position taken in this case by Great Britain, Russia has agreed that such a court shall determine the question whether the vessel was a law- ful prize and Foreign Minister Lams- dorft has telegraphed to Viceroy Alex- feff requesting that all documents on which the prize court based its judg- ment be sent to St. Petersburg. ‘While Russia has not abandoned her claim to the right to sink neutral ves- sels carrying contraband of war, in cases of “direct necessity,” it is safe to say that no case will again arise. If Great Britain still demands com- pensation for the ship because she was sunk before being adjudged a legal prize by the court of claims, on the ground of indignity, as indicated by Premier Balfour's speech, there is a strong belief here that both parties will agree to send the case in contro- versy to The<dague tribunal. ——————— TWO STRONG TICKETS NAMED AT SAN JOSE Democrats Listless, but Mackenzie and Hayes Prepare for Fight vin Primaries.

Losses in Attacks on Forts Thus Far Have Been Enormous. CHEFU, Aug. 9, 11 p. m.—The firing of heavy guns at intervals of one minute has been distinctly heard in the direction of Port Arthur since 10:30 o'clock to-night, the acoustic condi- tions of the atmosphere being unusual- ly favorable. During the last twenty-four hours 200 Chinese and fifty Russian refugees have arrived here from Port Arthur. They left there on August 4. It has been impossible to obtain confirmation of the report of the sinking off Port Arthur of a Japanese cruiser, but that this occurred is not improbable, as the vessel Is sald to have sunk in a place where mines were recently laid. The French newspaper correspond- ents who made an attempt to reach Port Arthur by junk saw the Japanese fleet on August 6. They were twice arrested and turned back. They heard nothing of the alleged sinking of the Japanese cruiser. They counted twen- ty-four vessels of the Japanese fleet | ranged in a double semi-circle in front | of the harbor. The refugees report that the Russian cruiser Bayan was struck by a frag- ment from one of the mines which the Japanese constantly send in toward the harbor entrance. The explosion oc- curred at the spot just previously va- cated by the Russian gunboat Giliak, which had been in that position for months, acting as guardship. The Bayan bears marks of projectiles of various sizes, showing that she has been hit 218 times since the beginning of the war. NOOSE SLOWLY TIGHTENS. This last party of refugees, several of whom witnessed part of the three | days’ fighting of the week before last, deny that the Japanese were one verst (.66 of a mile) from the Russian fort- ress. They say that the Japanese troops are from ten to fifteen versts from the inner forts. The Japanese are busy endeavoring | to work their trenches nearer to the The Russian resistance to these efforts is confined to the use of artillery, which ceaselessly harasses the diggers. The Japanese are szid to | have sixty guns in position on Wolf's Hill and vicinity, and it evidently is their intention slowly and surely to tighten their noose around Port Ar- thur. A refugee who witnessed the fight- ing at Wolf’s Hill of July 26 and July 27 declares that 4000 Russian troops defended the position, all approaches to which had been protected with ter- races at angles of forty-five degrees. In many instances the Russian soldiers dropped their rifles anl rolled rocks down,upon the enemy, ith effect more fatal than their bullets. The Russian mines were cleverly concealed in an open field. The ex- plosion of these mines threw the rocks for a distance of one or two versts. It is alleged that with the exception of four men, who were captured, two squadrons of Japanese cavalry were annihilated by the explosion of such mines. The witnesses confirm previous statements that the Japanese losses in this fighting were severe. The Japa- nese soldiers advanced to Wolf Hill over ground thickly strewn with their dead. They occupied the hill. By the third day the stench from the decom- posing bodies, which were not interred for lack of time, became intense. Jap- anese prisoners are quoted as saying that one of the narrow streets of a Chinese village, which was made the target of Russian batteries, was packed with dead and wounded men. BICYCLES CONVEY LITTERS. The vehicles used by the Russians in removing their wounded included bicycles, used in pairs with a litter swung between them. A detachment of six cabs was also sent out on July 26 to bring in Russian wounded. On the 27th these cabs returned for more wounded to a place they had visited the day before. It was found, however, that this place was then occupied by the Japanese, who captured the outfit of. cabs. On July 27 two detachments of ma- rines and soldiers, numbering 260, lost every commissioned officer as a result of the first volley fired by the Japa- nese. The men of this detachment thereupon sent a delegation to Major General Kondratenko and requested that he send to them the officers under whom they had previously performed exceptionally brilliant services, and for which General Stoessel had sent them special thanks. By the night of July 27 the Russian soldiers had been fighting for forty- eight hours with a minimum of rest, food and water. They were then re- lieved by reserves, who arrived at the lines led by bands playing the na- tional anthem. At the conclusion of the“anthem cheers were given along AUGUST 9, 1904.

F. C. Van Duser, a prominent mem- ber of the American Society in Lon- don, presided. The Earl of Euston, responding to a toast, sald there was no reason for doubt concerning the welcome await- ing them in America, and expressed the hope that the American and Brit- ish flags would long wave side by side, in the interest of the peace of the world. The deputation will sail for the United States on August 16. e i S e DIET OF WATERMELONS SUITS COLORED YOUTH | Negro Lad Locked in Car Subsists for Three Days on the Luscious Pruit. WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—The pro- verbial fondness of the negro race for watermelon was strikingly indicated by the experience of “Jimmie” Har- rington, a negro lad, who was arrest- ed at Bennings to-day, after having been locked in a car of watermelons for three days and nights. “Jimmie” got in the car to appro- priate a melon three days ago at Co- lumbia, 8. C., and when he tried to get out found the door locked. He appeared in excellent condition when taken from the car to-day and when ‘asked how he got along without food he replied: “Food, did you say, boss? Why, Ah had all kin ob food. Ah could eat and eat till"Ah was full and then 8o to sleep.” The boy will be sent home to his father in Columbia. —_—————— UNITED STATES PRODUCES MORE BEER THAN GERMANY ers Blame Prohibitionists for Slump in Fatherland's Output And Loss 6f First Place. WASHINGTON, Aug. $.—Statistics | for the year just ended show that for the first time in its history Germany must vield the first place among the nations in the production of beer to the United States. Frank H. Mason, United States Consul General at Ber- lin, in reporting this fact to the State Department says the falling off in Germany’s production is largely due to the spread of prohibition move- ments in that country, according to statistics prepared by the German Brewers' Association. The &erman production for the last year declined to ,1,787,615,000 gallons, or 132,085,- 230 gallons less than the output of the United States. —_————— EIGHT-YEAR-OLD BOY KILLED BY AN ENGINE Lad Ordered From Danger Becomes Excited and Runs in Front of Locomotive.
