CRUSHING BLOW. Japanese Success at Port Arthur Great ly Rejoices the Chinese. London, Feb. 10.—In a dispatch from Che Foo dated Feb. 9 a corres pondent of the Daily Express says: "The Japanese have dealt the Rus sians a crushing blow at Port Arlhur. An advance squadron of the Japanese ilect, under command of Vice Admiral Togo, and comprising 1G battleships and cruisers with a numerous torpedo flotilla, left the main fleet off Shan Tung peninsula on Sunday, immedi ately that the news of the diplomatic rupture became known. This informa tion was conveyed to the Japanese ad miral by a destroyer dispatched from Tsushima Saturday evening. "The Japanese scouting cruisers bad given accurate information of the precarious situation of the Russian fleet outside Port Arthur. The squad ron steamed slowly in battle forma tion Sunday midday toward its goal, and cam< within sight of Port Arthur under cover of darkness. It cruised slowly outside without showing lights. "The Russians were lying in the roadstead apparently feeling secure A dispatch from Tokio says It Is re- CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY n, 1904 ported that the Japanese fleet engaged and defeatod two Russian warships whose names have not yet been learn ed, at Chemulpo yesterday. It is said the engagement began at 1-1 a. m.and continued until U p. m. The smaller Russian vessel is reported to have been sunk and the larger one fired and hopelessly disabled. A part of the crew Is reported to have escaped to the shore and to have been cap tured. The Japanese ships are report ed to be slightly damaged. Official confirmation of the report is unobtain able. It was reported Monday that the Rus sian cruisers Korietz and Variag were lying at Chemulpo and it is possible they were the vessels reported to have been engaged, from attack. Nearly all the Japanese torpedo boats were dispatched on their dangerous and daring task. They rushed full steam on the enemy, who were completely surprised. A great rattle of small arms greeted the inva ders, who, however, escaped unhurt, and the Retvizan, the Czarevitch and the Pallada were almost immediately torpedoed. "The Japanese dashed along the en tire line of the Russians, exposed by this time to a terrible fire from ma chine guns and small arms from both tho ships and the shore. There was tho utmost consternation among the Russians, which probably accounts for the Japanese torpedo boats escap ing practically unscathed and rejoining the admiral outside. The admiral's fleet, during the attack, kept out of range of the Russian searchlights. "Line of battle was then formed and the Japanese fleet moved in within a range of two and one-half miles and opened fire on the Russians. The bat tle is understood to be still raping, and the wildest reports are current. Tho Chinese population of Che Foo is in a frenzy of excitement at the re ports that the Japanese, whom they now regard as their friends, scored tho first victory." MONDAY NIGHT'S BATTLE. Two Russian Battleships and a First- Class Cruiser Disabled. Cliofoo, Feb. 10—The steamer Col umbia has arrived from Port Arthur with additional news of tho attack by tho Japanese fleet upon the Russian fleet in the roads outside of the har bor of Port Arthur. The Columbia was In the roads at tho time and felt the first shock of a torpedo explosion at 11 o'clock Mon day night. The attack continued all night and at daylight Tuesday morning two Rus sian battleships and one first-class Russian cruiser were soon to have been disabled and beached at the entrance of the harbor. The cruiser was badly listed. In the morning the Russian forts opened fire on the Japanese fleet, which was about three miles distant. The Japanese vessels returned the fire, hitting several of the Russian ships, but did little damage. The Rus sian cruisers then went out and Jap anese vessels disappeared. They were seen later going in the direction of Dalny, apparently undamaged. Although the officers of the Colum bia say there were 17 in the attacking party, only 1G were seen later in the day near Foo Chow. The Russians left one cruiser out side to watch for the Japanese ships. The cruiser was fired upon by the Japanese and other Russian vessels took up their anchors and cruised around the roadstead. The Japanese fleet came up within three miles and battle commenced. The Japanese fired on the ships and forts, "which replied. Two Russian ships were struck by shells, but were only slightly damaged. The Russian fire fell short. The Columbia steamed away while the bat tle was in progress, but later saw the Japanese fleet leave. One cruiser with the torpedo boats is reported north of Che Foo. A member of the crew of the Col umbia tells this story of tho naval bat tle at Port Arthur: "The Columbia was lying in the road stead, surrounded by 14 Russian bat tleships and cruisers. At 11:30 o'clock Monday night a severe shock was felt on board the Columbia. The Russians immediately commenced to operate their searchlights and opened fire towards the sea. The firing last ed only a short time. At 1 o'clock more shocks were felt and the Rus sians again commenced firing. "The Japanese did not return the fire. At 2 o'clock two Russian battle ships went in and were beached across the entrance of the harbor. They were soon followed by a Russian cruis er, which also was beached. None of tho vessels were damaged above the water line. More shocks from torpe does were felt during the early morn lag and then all was quiet. "At 10 o'clock Tuesday morning three Japanese cruisers passed Port Arthur in sight of the Russian Hoot. The whole Russian fleet immediately weighed anchor and went after them hut returned in half an hour." The two battleships disabled are the Poltava and the Czarevitch. The disabled armored cruiser Boyarin and the grounded battleships block the en trance to the harbor, preventing gun boats from getting out and battleships and cruisers from going in and getting coal. Besides this Japan has the Russian gunboats Variag and Koratz caught at Chemulpo. They were bound for Vladivostock. The Japanese fleet was under rom mand of Vice Admiral Togo and con sisted of four fast cruisers, the Chi tose. Kasagi, Tagafago and Yoshino. v,hich circled outside, drawing tho fire of the Russians. They then joined the main fleet and all \*ent Into attack the armored cruisers. In the Japanese fleet, which consisted of two divisions, were the Mikasa, the flagship; the first-class battleships Sahi, Fuji, Shi kashlma. Hatsuz and the dispatch boat Tatsuma. The second division of the fleet, under com man d of Admiral Kam mimura on the flagship Idsumo, con sisted of the armored cruisers Yakuma, Asama and Iwate. When seen by the steamer Foo Chow Tuesday morning, the fast cruis ers were circling in a radius of six miles. No torpedo boats were eeen and it is probable that they left the vicinity after the torpedo attack of Monday night. The Russian fleet outside of the har bor consisted of the battleships Pe tropaulovsk, flagship; Peresviet, sub flagship; Pobieda, Poltava, Czarewitch ; Retvizan and Sebastopol, and the cruisers Novik, Boyarin, Bayan. Diana Palada, Askold and Angara. The disabled battleships are inside Forts Huan Ching Shan and Chi Kwan Shan. The cruiser Boyarin is out side but within range of the forts. LIKE BLOWING UP OF MAINE. Paris Newspapers Express Indignation Over Japan's Sudden Attack. Paris, Feb. 10. A great wave ol popular sympathy for Russia was brought out by the news of the en gagement off Port Arthur. The news papers without exceptions severely ar raign Japan. The Temps, senii-ofli cially, said: "Japan's brutality in making a night attack before a declaration of war is her second offense against the rules of international law." The Journal Debats declares Ja pan's action was contrary to the ae cepted rules of international law, giv ing promise that Japan proposes tc conduct the war without regard tc modern usages of warfare. The Patrie gives sensational promi nence to its assertion that Japan com mitted an act of international treason, compares the attack on the Russian fleet off Port Arthur with the blowing up of the Maine and asserts that Eu rope will "hold Japan responsible for this treason." The authorities on international law who were interviewed on the subject expressed the belief that Japan com mitted a breach of international law. Notwithstanding this bitterness however, universal recognition war given ol Japan's audacity, and it was evident, that Japan's naval prestige had hi en materially increased. The press was informed by a high Russian authority that now Japan has begun war. the Russian government, following the manifesto which is ex pected to be issued in St. Petersburg this evening, expects that, the various states will issue proclamations of neu trality. In Russian diplomatic circles the success of Japan Monday night nat urally aroused the greatest regret. It was frankly admitted that Russia ex pected to be defeated upon the sea. but it was added that she would certainly conquer or. land. Official Russian Report. St. Petersburg, Feb. 10, 1 a. m. —The following official bulletin has just been issued in the form of a telegram from Viceroy Alexieff's chief of.staff, dated Feb. 9: "By order of the viceroy I beg to re port that this flay at about 11 o'clock in the morning a Japanese squadron consisting of about 15 battleships and cruisers, approached Port Arthur and opened fire. The enemy was received with a cannonade from the shore bat. teries and the guns of our squadron, which also participated in the engage ment. "At about midday the Japanese squadron ceased its fire and left, pro ceeding south. "Our losses in the fleet were two officers wounded, nine men killed and 41 men wounded. On the shore bat teries one man was killed and three were wounded. Tho battleship Pol tava and the cruiser Novik each had a hole knocked in her side below the water line. The forts were slightly damaged. "Major General Flug." Russian Commander-in-Chief. St. Petersburg, Feb. 10.—Serious dif ferences have arisen in high quarters over the command of the Russian land forces in the Far East. One faction favors Viceroy Alexieff, and anothei urge a division of authority with War Minister Kuropatkin. It is understood Alexieff will have general direction of the operations. The Russian reinforcements will cross the ice on Lake Baikal on foot and the war material will be trans ported over a temporary line. A dispatch to the Novoe Vremya tioVn Port Arthur says; "In consequence of Corea's neutral ity it is assumed here that Japan will bo obliged to withdraw her infantr. and artillery from Seoul. "Much uneasiness is reported a! Seoul owing to the arrival there of Japanese soldiers, who intend to build barracks. "The Corean noblemen who have been residing in Japan have received permission to return home." French Troops to Garrison Forts. London, Feb. 10. —A dispai i to Router's Telegram company i-om Tien Tsin says: "A French transport with a battal ion of troops from Tonquin is hourly ex pected at Shan Hai Kwang, on the eulf of Liao Tung, to garrison the forts which are being vacated by tho Russians. It is reported that the tri-color of France was hoisted there this morulng and that the British officer In charge at Shan Hal Kwang protested against the French occupation. At present there is only a single sentry guarding the flag. "The British commander hero. Brig adier General Ventris, and his chief of staff proceeded to Shan Hai Kwang thiß morning." COLUMBIA ENDANGERED. Russian Cruiser Novik Got Between Her and the Japanese Fleet. Chee Foo, Feb. 10. The British steamer Columbia, which arrived yes terday from Port Arthur, reports she bad a narrow escape from injury dur ing the Russo-Japan naval battle. While going out of the roads at Port Arthur the Russian cruiser Novik got between the Columbia and the Japanese fleet. Shells which passed over the Novik struck around the Columbia. Her flag was cut into shreds and one shell fell on her deck. The faces of those who were on deck were blackened with powder smoke. A naval officer who was recently at Port Arthur says the Russians were not prepared for the attack and had an insufficient amount of steam up. A boat patrolled the straits of Pe C'ui Li continuously, but apparently the Japanese torpedo boats were not no ticed until after the first torpedo was fired. The Russians fired, but the Japanese did not return the fire and backed off. An hour later the discharge of tor pedoes was repeated, after which the torpedo boats withdrew some distance At 10 o'clock Tuesday morning the Japanese fast, cruisers circled within view of the whole Russian fleet, but they were not engaged. The Russians returned toward the harbor after an hour. The Japanese came within three miles. A battle then began between the Russian forts and fourteen ships and the sixteen Japanese vessels. A few of the Japanese sholhs were effective, but as far as seen the Russian shots fell short. The Japanese fleet was steaming to ward Dalny when seen last. The Columbia left just as Tuesday morning's contest began and was un able to learn the result. It is probable that, the Japanese fleet was convoying 20 troopships from Sasbo to some point in Coroa. The Japanese are reported to lie in possession of tho southern portion of tho penninsuia. The Russian war vessels at Vladi vostok are the armored cruisers Ru rilf, Rossia, Gromoboy and the Bogatyr, a screw corvfbtte built in 18G0. Russia has 1,000 tons of coal at Port Arthur, but the coal must be taken out to the battleships in lighters until the battle ships disabled by the Japanese are floated. Have You Indigestion.
