By Associated Press.
Tokio, Nov. 7, 9.15 F. M.—After des
perate assaults, in which t'he Japanese
in tihe face of heroic resistance ri
valled the bravery of their forces at
Port Arthur, Tsing Tau surrendered at
9.20 o'clock this morning. At that
hour Governor Meyer-Waldeck, follow
ing t'he hoisting of white flags on the
forts, sent an officer with a flag of
truce to the Anglo-Japane«e lines.
At 4 o'clock this afternoon the Jap
anese and German officers opened a con
ference at Moltke barracks when the
formalities of capitulating • were con
cluded.
The Japanese officers pay unstinted
tribute to the "bravery of the Germans
who fought tenaciously to t'he last. Un
official reports are that the Germans
blew up what was left of their forts
before surrendering and practically the
whole town is in ruins. A Japanese
torpedo boat flotilla that entered the
bay found that nearly all the ships • I

founded. No statement of the 'ierman
casualties is available but it is believed
that they were heavy.
The Minister of War states that the
lessons learned from the siege were:
First, tiio destructiveness of the new
keavy guns that the Japanese used
from the first time, and second, the ef
fectiveness of the aeroplane observa
tion service whereby the methods of the
defense were discovered. The prisoners
who will number, it is said, between
6,000 and 8,000, will be brought to
Japan.
The official version of the Anglo-Jap
anese victory issued by the Japanese
war office to-night follows:
Official Version of Victory
" A general bombardment on October
31 permitted the occupation on Novem
ber 1 of the first attacking position—
-36.5 metre hill, 3,000 feet south of
our previous position and bounded by
the Shi-'Ho and the Shunkas-110. We en
trenched and prepared for a further ad
vance and on November 4 were pro
gressed to a second position at Pompuga
on the Fiisaus-Ho, where we met a gall
ing fire, yet never flinched. The heavy
artillery'moved closed and co-operated
with and protected the infantry.
"On the uight of November 6 we
occupied the third and final attacking
position in front of the entanglements
tihat screened the forts. General Yoshimi
Yamada's command advanced from the
center and forced its way through three
heavilv wired defenses, crossed the in
tervening ditches and charging cour
ageously captured the center fort. This
helped General Horiudhi occupy the
northerly fort.
"The right wing under General
Yehoyi and the British right center led
by Lieutenant Colonel Bernardiston
jointly charged and early on November
7 completely occupied forts ll'tis, Moltke
and Bismarck, forcing the enemy to fly
Hags of surrender."
Tokio, Nov. 7, 3.50 P. M.—Tokio
is celebrating to-day the fall of the
German fortress at Tsin-Tau after an
actual seige of a few days more than
three weeks.
It was in the middle of September
that the real attack began although
preparations for the taking of the
German stronghold in Asia were begun
immediately after war was declared
by Japan on August 15,
The final and successful attack on
Tsing Tau began shortly after mid
night Friday morning and the first in
road by the allied forces, which was
largely instrumental in the fall of the
place was the taking of the middle
fort of the first line of defense. This
was accomplished by a brilliant charge
of infantry and engineers led by Gen
eral Yoshimi Yamada.
Simultaneously with the charge of
General Yamada others were made, the
troops dashing forward with cries of
Bazai. Taitungchen, the fortification
on the cast fell at 5.35 in the morning,
thungchiawa was captured soon there
after with its two heavy cannon,
A detachment of the first line oc
cupied the litis, Bismarck and Moltke
torts at seven in the morning and then
the enemy hoisted the white flag on
the weather astronomical station ad
joining the governor's office. Another
white flag was hoisted on the coast
forts at the mouth of the Haipo at
7.30 o'clock.
The closing hours of the siege of
Tsing-Tau and the fall of the fortress
there are briefly but dramatically de
scribed in official reports by Vice Ad

OFFICIAL COUNT IS CUTTINC
DOWN FRAZER'S MAJORITY
Returns Thus Far Received, However,
Indicate That the Western Man
Has Been Elected Judge By About
10,(MM)
The members of the committee that
managed Judge George Kunkel's cam
paign against Judge Robert Frazer, of
Allegheny county, for Justice of the
State Supreme Court, to-day content
ed themselves with comparing official
returns, sent in from a few of the six
ty-seven counties, with the unofficial
figures printed earlier in the -week.
These showed some gains for Kunkel,
but Frazer still has a material lead.
Judge Kunkel's friends are hoping the
receipt of additional official returns
will show further gains for the Har
risburg man.
The official count was completed ! n
Dauphin county at 11 o'clock this
morning, although only the vote on the
Supreme Court candidates had been
compared and totaled at that hour.
That showed Judge Kunkel received
21,459 votes in Dauphin county, a
handsome testimonial from his home
county friends, as against 1,271 re
ceived bv his opponent, Judge Frazer,
or a majority of 20,188 for Kunkel.
The unofficial figures compiled on
Wednesday, following the election
gave Judge Kunkel 21,433 and Judge
Frazer 1,266, a majority of 20,167
for the local candidate. Kunkel thus
was shown to have received twenty
one more in Dauphin county than had
been indicated unofficially.
Philadelphia newspapers this morn
ing carried stories to the effect that,
with two counties missing, the unof
ficial figures gave Judge Frazer a lead
of 10,150 over Judge Kunkel. Mem
bers of Judge Kunkel's campaign com
mittee now admit that Judge Frazer
has a lead over the Dauphin county
candidate, although they say it is not
so much as 10,000.
Comparisons with the unofficial re
turns on the judgeship candidates that
were obtained by the Associated Press
and printed earlier in the week, when
seven counties were missing, show that
the unofficial returns in four counties
gave Judge Kunkel 1,439 votes fewer
than he actually received. In one
county his total was overestimated by
78, bringing his actual increase over
the unofficial figures in five counties
down to 1,361.
Judge Frazer was credited by the
unofficial returns with fewer votes than
lie actually received in three counties,
while in two others his totals were
overestimated. The returns from which
comparisons were made include tlioso
of Dauphin, Cumberland, Franklin,
Et'c and Centre counties.
Frank E. Ziegler and Benjamin F.
Umberger, who recorded the official
vote here, began this afternoon making
comparisons of the votes other than
those cast for judge, but they will not
begin totaling these votes until Mon
day.

HAIR'S EXPENSES $464. 14
Defeated Democratic Candidate for
Secretary of Internal Affairs First
to File Financial Statement
The first election expense account
was received at the State Department
to-day. It was from William McNair,
the Democratic candidate for Secre
tary of Internal Affairs, who was en
dorsed by the Single Taxers of the
State at a meeting held at the Board
of Trade building here long before the
primaries were held, and afterward
carried the Democratic primary.
Mr. McNair received altogether
bulk of which was from per
sonal friends, but S4O of it was from
the Philadelphia Single Tax Associa
tion. He expended $464.14, mainly
for traveling expenses, postage, print
ing and telephone charges, and he
gave the Democratic State committee
SSO. He still owes $8 to a press clip
ping bureau.
Twelve counties have made returns
of the election to the State Depart
ment, as follows: Cameron, Clinton,
Cumberland, Fulton, Juniata, Montour,
Northumberland, Potter, Schuylkill,
Snyder, Union and Wyoming.
The delay in computing the vote in
some of the larger counties will prob
ably prevent the exact official vote
from being announced for several
weeks. As yet there have been no
notifications of contests to hold back
the returns.
SEEMED LONG TO THE INDIANS
Carlisle "Arrow" Says Redskins Pa
raded 14'/ 2 Miles With Firemen Here
(Special to the Star-Independent.)
Carlisle, Pa., Nov. 7.—Wh*n the Car
lisle Indian school band marched with
the Washington Fire Company, of Me
chankabiiTg, in the big firemen's parade
in Harrisburg last month, it seemed to
the redskins that the six-and-onehalf
mile route of the parade was actually
fourteen and one-half miles long. One
of the bandmen writing in to-day's is
sue of the Carlisle "Arrow," the In
dian school newspaper, referring to the
parade, says:
"The boys spent t'heir leisure mo
ments in various ways; some yisited
different places of interest, others walk
ed around and took in the sights. Wo
certainly 'lmd enough of the latter ex
perience later in the afternoon. We
were in the second division and we
inarched about fourteen and one-half
miles. At the start we halted a few
times, but when once started we kept
up a steady tramp.
"When on the home stretch the pa
rade halted a few mi mi tea and we found
out that the twelfth division was just
starting and there were two more wait
ing for their turn to march. The parade
was fourteen and one-half miles in
length and we arrived home in Carlisle
very glad indeed that tfhe strenuous day
was over.''

DUTY LAST NIGHT
Evangelist Sayß Questions Should Be
Asked When Young People Start
Courtship Instead of Matter Being
Made a Joke
Boys and girls from all parts of the
city poured into the tabernacle this
afternoon to see and hoar Evangelist
Stough, the man they have heard their
elders talking so much about. The
mass meeting for children was schedul
ed to start at 2 o'clock, but the school
children wore on hand long before that
hour, and conspicuous among them
were Boy Scouts who turned out in
full uniform to aid in the ushering.
Evangelist Stough spoke to the chil
dren on "Railroad Signals." This is
the only lecture he will give especial
ly for children in Harrisburg. One of
the objects of the meeting was the or
ganization of a children' "booster
chorus," and this work was effectively
begun. It is expected by Prof. Spoon
er, musical director in charge of the or
ganization, that there will be at least
1,200 children enrolled. These chil
dren will occupy the seats in the choir
loft at the tabernacle on certain nights
in place of the adult chorus, they will
sing at children's meetings, and will
render their songs through the streets
of the city and in the homes before
the close of the campaign.
Sermon Brings Forth Sobs
To his sermon at the taberna.'le laat
vighit Evungelist Stough for the first
time touched the emotions of his hear
ers. At times in the course of his ac
cusing, advising and pleading there was
coughing in all parts of the tabernacle
as throats became choked and much
blowing of noses and wiping of eyes.
At least 3,000 persons who came to
the tabernacle after 7 o'clock could not
be admitted, because practically all the
seats were already filled.
The text of *he evangelist's sermon
last night was "Is the Young Man
Absolom Safe!" words which were
spoken by David in asking aibout the
welfare of his son.
* 1 The trouble with David was,'' said
Dr. Stough, "that he asked that ques
tion many years too late. If he wanted
to know of tile safety of his son, why
didn't he ask the question when he was
courting Absolom's heathen mother?
We to-day do not ask such questions
