’l‘ho dispatch odds that over a fortnight
’past ('ount tlyamn‘s army had boon simul-

peninsula to Port Arthur. keeping in
touch us far as possible with tho Japanese
float. The country was very dilllcuit oi
passage, especially for the artillery. Ills
cept in the cultivated valleys there were
practically no roads The men worked
cheerfully.
No organized resistance was offered by
tho Chinese troops for three quarters of
the march Since then. however. there
were occasional brushes with the enemy.
The villages along the line oi march
yielded little in tho way oi supplies.
Some of them were looted before the Jan
ancso arrived. On Tuesday the right Iii—
vision’s advance guard had a skirmish
with the enemy. who retired in good or
dcr. The enemy‘s positions were recon-
noltorod and found to be strong and held
in force.
In tho aftcrnoon the fort and village of
Shuisyching were captured. Both divi
aloIIs moved forward during the night.
Early in the morning tho right division
crept up the range of low bills to the
northwest oi Port Arthur and carried
them with a rush. Guns were then drag-
god up and fire opened on a stro g ro-
doubt about 1.00:) yards distant.
The enemy returned the fire briskly
The Japanese infantry advanced against
a well directcd shell ilrc without falter

carriedby storm in a moot gallant faoh:

two against the final onslaught. fighting
fiercely. Then they fled toward the dock-

The right division then advanced in
foi'cc against the Koklncan fort, which
was armed with several heavy Krupp
guns. which were well served. Scores of
men were killed or wounded in this brief
advance. The fort was strengthened by
trenches and loopholcd mud walla. but
all were carried without diilicnlty.
At noon the fort itself was stormed and
captured afterashort but dosporato tight.
By ii o'clock in the afternoon the right
division was in full possession oi the
western part of the stronghold.
Meanwhile the left division had been
fiercely ongriged on the southeast, whore
the ground was less difficult but far from
easy. Advancing over the bills. the first
division had to clear the enemy out of
some outlying work» apparently of recent
construction. ’l‘hcn their progress was
momentarily checked by a very, hosvy fire
from three forts that were connected by
trenches. 'l‘hcsc forts were strongly hold

'ln his’ sermon Bishop McQuaid said
that in his 47 years of priesthood he had
never put- himself under obligations to
any political party. and for :57 years he
had never cast a vote out of anxiety not
to input in any man‘s political power to
say that he had voted for one party or tho
other. Following is an extract from the
sermon:
‘ “Having said this much by way of pref-
ace. 1 will now advert to the late scandal
which caused these remarks. Every Cath-
olic having resmct for his bishops and
priests and the honor and good name of
his church must have been pained and
mortified when he learned during the late
political campaign that one of our bish-
ops. tho archbishop of St. Paul, cast to
one side the traditions of the past and on.
mod the political arena like a layman.
The newspapers were careful to keep the
public duly informed of his arrival in
New York weeks before the election. of
his appearance on the platform at ratifi-
cation meetings, surrounded by the lead-
ers of the Republican--parm~of~~-hiovviews
of political questions. strongly expressed
through interviews carefully prepared for
the press. and of his mingling in p crowd
of excited politicians and partisans on the
night of tho Illcction.
“l contend that this coming to New
York of the archbishop of St. Paul to
take part in II political contest was undig.
nlilcd. disgraceful to his episcopal office
and a scandal in the eyes of all right
minded Catholics of both parties. It was
furthermore a piece of meddlooomo inter:
forensic to come from his stain to on-
othor to break down all discipline among
our priests and justify the charges of
those inimical to us that priests are par-
tisans and uso their cilico and opportuni
ties for political work.
The Archbishop "and No Ext-nae.
"it is no excuse to say the archbishop
was working in the interest of good gov
ernment. Every other clerical aspirant to
political distinction would say the same.
New \ ork is nbundhntly able to take care
of itself without extraneous help, as the
last election showed. and if the ncwopa
pars report correctly the legislature of
Minnesota is sadly in need of purifies~
tion. and his grace might have foung full
scope for his political scheming and skill
right at home if politician he would be.
"lint it Is well known to many that it
was not low for good government that
kept Archbishop lrolnnd so many weeks
in New York city and so far from his dio-
cesv. where the low of rcaiiiunco obliged
him to be it was to pay a debt to the
