Nov. n—‘l'he Chinese and Japanese uaviee have had a battle on Port Arthur. The Chinameu are said to have continued the light even to close quarters. suffering great damage. The battleship Chen Yuan fled into the bar- bar of “lethal-Wei, which is almost di- rectly ohm!“ Port Arthur. _ A.dispatoh says that the Chen Yusn I'a'h aground while entering Wel-Hai-Woi. She was trying tcavcld the torpedoes laid there to blow up the enemy in case be en- tered the harbor. There is little doubt. however. that the crack warship was ac- tually blown up and many of her crew either killed or wounded. Lin Tal San, her commander. commit ted suicide the, instant he realised the iii-aster that bad befallen hie vessel. Loam. Nov. Ila—A dispatch from Shanghai says that the efforts of foreign era to reach the Chinese wounded meet with small success. The wounded Ohi- nose mostly remain at Simeuting. between New Chang and Mukdeu. the state of the country prilvonting the Chinese medical ”staff and the foreignvoluntecre from pro— ceeding there. Wounded stragglers have reached Mukdeu and New Chang, and some of them have even reached Ticu~ tsin, where they have been attended to. but no succcr has reached the main body f the Chinese wounded; All the foreigners have evacuated Muk~ den. A portion of the road between Tien tsin and Peking lb occupied by Hon- nanesc troops and this locality is becom- ing unpleasant for travelers. Cold weath- er is setting in. The Catholic fathers remain at their stations in Manchuria. but the Protes- tants have returned. The latter reported that the Chinese soldiers fought most stubbornly underi‘louorul Sung. and they add that if the Chinese had good loaders they would certainly repel the Japanese China's l-imrst Vessel Lost. \VASIHNCTON, .‘ov. 23.—The Chinese have lost the finest and most powerful vessel of their navy—tbs great battleship Chen Yuan, which stood the brunt of the lighting at Yalu. The news came to the navy department in a Eablcgram just rc- ceivod. it states that the Chen Yuen, in leaving Wel-Hai-Wei harbor on the 18th inst . accidentally struck a torpedo. She was beached. but was rendered useless for lack of (looking facilities. in despair at the catastrophe the commander. Comma» dore Lin. committed suicide The Chen Yuan was a magnificent fighting machine. very much like our own battleship Maine She was built in Europe in 1882 and was of 7,480 tons displacement. It would appear from the brief statement of facts in the cablegrufn that the ship foil a victim to one of the torpedoes planted by the Chinese them— selves to guard the entrance to \‘i‘oiilai- Wei, which was the last of the great na- val strongholds of the empire save Port Arthur. now tottering to its fall. it was as well that Commodore Lin committed suicide. for he would doubt- less hnve been decapitated as the result of his error. it is believed bore that this loss has deprived the Chinese Iiuvy of its oil'vnsivc power. There remains the Ting Yuen, another powerful battleship. and II low lesser ironcluds, but without the aid of the Chen Yuon they would hardly dare to make an ochnsivo campaign. and probably will remain in port to assist in the defense. Lieutenant Miyuka naval attache of the Japanese logutinn here. says the ad- vance on l'ort Arthur has been very cau- tions, as the ground for miles around has been filled with powder mines connected with electric wires running to Port Ar- thur. Three days ago the .lapouosc were within a day's march of the fortress, but it was necessary to send IIlqud small scouting parties to pick a route away from the minus and wires. The regular road could not be used for artillery, as it wuuld have been lilown up. and accordingly the big guns havc had to be moved through woods and swamps This cautious march should have been completed. and the Japanese legation ls hourly expecting word that the decisive blow has been struck, though a siege may be necessary. as the fortress has one of the strongest defenses of modern times. Hrs-nos at I'm-t Arthur. lemma, Nov. Bit—A special com spondent, the only European at Port Ar, that. writing from there under date of Oct ill. describes the place as being a city of the dead. The streets are empty, and only soldiers are to be seen in the houses. The correspondent estimates that 230. 000 superior northern troops are defending Port Arthur and that they have plenty of ammunition. lie adds that the fortress is lmpregnnhla if defended and that the garrison hue provisions enough to last III: weeks. llopulwd Three Times.
