LONDON, Nov. 25.—The correspond- ent at Moscow of the Daily Telegraph claims authority for the statement that General Stoessel’s dispatch sent by the torpedo-boat Rastoropny informed Em- peror Nicholas that the Port Arthur garrison was being starved out, with other frank details of its actual condi- tion, showing that the fall of the fort- ress is inevitable. CHEFU, Nov. 24.—A huge plle of coal near the railway station at Port Ar- thur was ignited by Japanese shells on November 20, and according to Chinese arriving here by junk to-day it was still burning when they left the be- nese torpedo-boat destroyer overhauled this junk, but allowed it to proceed. Another junk with six Hindoos on board was taken ashore, where the junk was burned. The passengers were sent to Dalny. The report that the steamship Tung- chow, laden with 30,000 tins of meat, was captured by the Japanese yesterday while trying to enter Port Arthur ap-| pears to have been correct. The Tung- chow was a British vessel and belonged to Butterfleld & Swire of Shanghai. Last Monday when leaving Shanghai she was transferred at the last mo- ment to 2 man believed to be acting for the Russian Government. TOKIO, Nov. #i—Telegraphing to- day, the headquarters of the army be- fore Port Arthur reports: ““The conflagration in the buildings near the arsenal caused by our naval guns, which, as reported yesterday, be- gan about noon on November 22, con- tinued until 2 o'clock on the morning of November 23. It is probable that the coal stores have been burned.” The only permanent forts in the pos- session of the Japanese are the two Panlung forts, captured in August. The Japanese hold the advance works of the Rihlung redoubt, called Fort humpa!- kin, an entrenched hill miscalled “P”! fort. Kobu Hill, Sachitakivama and; 174-meter hill. They also occupy the caponiere, galleries and moats of the two Rihlung forts and North Keekwan | fort. | — many ecivilian employes, membery of| | sanitary corps, etc. A small room with a day, | whereas before the war a half-dozen small houses in the corral were rented | | for $50 a year.

LONDON, Nov. 25.—Writing from Tokio on the subject of alleged intrigue of Russian agents to sow dis- cord between Japan and America and to create the feeling in America that Japan’s in the present war would jeopardize America’s position in the Philippines, a correspondent of the Times declares that nothing could be| more chimerical. It is doubtful, the correspondent says, whether even Great Britain holds a higher place in Japan's esteem and affection than America. The writer| says this sentiment is of long and un-| checked growth. ]t began under the | diplomatic regime of Townsend Har- | ris and the numerous instances of | America’s friendship since that time | have so resulted that no Western na- | tion i more cherished by Japan than America. These considerations should suffice to show how extravagant is the sug- success the floating of the Stars and Stripes over the Philippines. On the contrary, America’s withdrawal from the Philip- pines would be regarded by the Jap- | anese as little short of a calamity, since | her presence constitutes a guarantee | for the continuance of her wholesome interest in Far Eastern affairs. Townsend Harrie, representing the | United States in the Orient in 1858, | secured the first treaty of trade and | commerce between the United States and Japan and the opening of three ports to foreign residents. PO P, ARRIVES AT SUEZ CANAL. PORT SAID, Nov. 24—A division of the Russian second Pacific squadron has arrived here.

While awaiting the ladies King Charles and the other shooters threw snowballs at a mark. * This was too tame for the King, who, catching Marquis de Souvrel, the Portuguese steamship Woronetz, which passed the Dardanelles as a transport, has three submarine boats on board and that the Yaroslav, which passed the Dardanelles similarly, has a large “Evidently, once through the canal,” says the correspondent, “they | will emulate the volunteer steamers St. Petersburg and Smolensk.” e RUSSIAN TARS MUTINY.

MEETING OF REICHSRATH PARIS, Nov 24.—The arsenal | hands at Brest, Cherbourg and Socialistic Member Precipitates Row by Commenting on Language of the Premier. VIENNA, Nov. 24.—Disturbances marked the session of the lower house of the Reichsrath to-day and this | evening the President abruptly closed | the sitting amid great excitement. The | | uproar commenced when a Socialistic member, replying to the President's stricture on‘the language used in the last few days, said the Social Demo- crats have never attacked the wearer | of the crown, but would not be pre- vented from telling the truth about the “Camarilla which ruled Austria.” During the consequentgfiscussion the President declared the session closed. The galleries created tremendous con- fusion by shouting and showering the house with slips of paper inscribed, “Down with the Clerical spoilers of the schools.” P Earlier in the sitting Premier von Koeber, defending his policy, dealt with the difficulty of reconciling the conflicting aspirations of the various parties. With reference to Innsbruck he said that practically the Italian faculty there was no longer in exis- tence and that neither international nor other weighty consideration stood | in the way of its formal su-ppres:ion.' He hoped the Czech representatives would abandon obstruction and for | that reason he had advised the Em- | peror to appoint a Bohemian national Minister. ] For the rest the Government could | only assure those concerned that it | contemplated the sacrifice of no Ger- man interests. In conclusion the Pre- mier strongly exhorted the members that energetic work for the pressing | 3 needs of the empire was the best| % means to heal party differences. | ———— Accepts President’s Invitation.
