—'l‘he Japanese estimate the strength
01 the Russians about Port Arthur at
20.000 men. The former have 50.000
men at Kin-Chou.
Chinese continue to escape from
Port Arthur. but little reliance is plac-
ed on their statements. They say
food is growing scarcer at Port Arthur
and there is good authority for sayingW
the Japanese believe they can starve
out the Russians in three months. '
The Russians who recently purchas-
ed 1500 junks anchored here, shipped
them today to Tung—Ching-Tsu where
they will block the river to prevent
the produce or that section leaving.
Fodder is especially scarce.
Much contraband or war is arriv‘lngi
at this port. The French steamer Bour-
hon landed 66 000 sacks of flour today.
