Novas Vremya today publishes a re-
markablc editorial on the parallel be-
tween Port Arthur and Sebastopol
pointing out that the ports are klentlc
ally situated. Golden Hill correspond
ing,to the Malakoff. Dalny to Eupa-
torls,‘, Admiral Alexicff to Admiral
Nachlmolf. and the lictvlaan to the
Trio. Sviatltelia: but the editorial
warns the Russians to abiure istalis
tlr bII‘licfs. Although written without
knowledge of General Stocsscl‘s equal-
ly remarkable general order (issued at
Port Arthur), the Novas Vremya's edi-
torial comes as a strong reinforcement
of its support. that Port Arthur must
in no case be surrendered. Both seem
to foreshadow a siege of Port Arthur
and a bombardment, which a despatch
trom Liao ang says it is rumored at
New Chwang will occur tomorrow.
Oifciai opinion continues to be that the
Japanese will make no attempt to in-
rest Purt Arthur immediately, al-
though it is admitted that they are ev-
idently determined to force matters
as rapidly as possible. in 189i they
landed on the northern part of the pen-
insula arid the Chinese made no resis-
tance; still it took twenty-eight days
before Port. Arthur was really invested.
The object of the Japanese now may
be to avoid this preliminary delay by
disembarking their troops’ at Pigeon
y.
"if they do" said a naval expert
"they will meet with opposition which
will render their plans impracticable."
Japanese Minister's Protest.
THE HAGUE, Feb. 29.—Tbe protest
of the Japanese minister against the re-
marks made by M. Mursvleil‘, president
of the arbitration Tribunal and Rus-
sian Minister of Justice, in the speech
which he made February 22. after an-
nouncing the Tribunai's decision in la-
vor of the blockadlng powers as against
Venezuela, says: -
“The government of Japan, convinc-
ed that the permanent arbitration
court cannot properly be used as a
means of attacking the action, motives
or good name. of a-power signatory to
The Hague Convention of 1899, pro
tests formally and seriously, both in
defense or its honor and dignity and
to prevent further misuse of this high
court against the insulting remarks of
M. Muravleff, concerning the Japanese
government, Japan further requests
the insertion of this protest on the min-
utes of the court. and that it be given
publicity equal to,that given to the
remarks which-called it out."
