The Russians hare abandoned the ground mine* eight mile* south of here. Only a comparatively abort distance aeparates the Japanese and Russian armies, and the soldiers are all anxious for active operations to begin. A Cbcfu dispatch says that according to the captain of one of the Japanese cruisers blockading Port Arthur the Russian cruiser Novik bus been out of the harbor on several occasions banting Japanese destroyers. The captain thought that the obstructions at the month of the harbor prevented the exit of the larger Russian vessels. According to the Japanese the Russians have three submarine boats which have presumably been put together at Port Arthur since the beglnfHhg of the war. Llaoyang reports any that the Japanese are fortifying Laodun and along the railway from Pulantlen to Tandsafan. Japanese scouts are constantly skirmishing with Knsstan cavalry south of Vafandian. A strong advance' guard Is occupying Sluyen. which is being fortified. Japanese scouts have been seen st Hatch eng and on the Helping road.

Special semiofficial advices from St Petersburg say rumors are In circulation there to the effect that a great naval battle baa taken place off Port Arthur. In which two Russian and four Japanese battleships were sunk. A Tokyo report says that Bear Admiral Togo has reported that the fleet bombarded the west coast of the Liao tong peninsular near Kaichau . and drove back a military train that was approaching southward. Mo trains have been seen since. The military commission assigned to bury the Russian dead In the battle of Nanshan bill at Nincbau baa praaited Its final report at Tokyo. It states that 10 Russian officers and 664 men who fell In the battle have been carefully burled and that 10 men were burled by The oi the total by the Eight hundred Infantry and no cavalry or artillary whatever la the total Japanese garrison at Wonaon, and these are the only troops Japan maintains on the eastern Korean coast The* lack of cavalry prevents effective scouting. Infantry la useless against the mobile Cossack bands forming tha principal Russian force for 200 miles to the north. General Knropatkln baa telegraphed to the emperor as follows: “A Jspanese brigade baa attacked the Russian detachment occupying Salma tw.
