He Had Become “sclld” With the Chl- nose and Commended Some of Their Batteries—Ila Insisted Upon Com- mitting Suicide and Did It. SAN FRANCISCO, July 18.—The ease with which the Japanese captured Port Arthur during the recent war with China is ex- plained to' some extent by an article in the J apau Gazette, which has just arrived on the steamer. According to The Gazette, the commander of the Chinese forts was a. native of Japan who had acquired favor in Chinese councils through a long resi- dence in the Flowery Kingdom and in- tentionally caused the shots from the guns to be misdirected iso they would fall short of the Japanese warships, having betrayed his adopted land for the land his birth. The disgraced commander appeared before the victorious Japanese generals, acknowl- edged his treason and committed suicide in their presence. The article continues: “When Port Arthur was attacked by the Japanese army and navy,..the latter, after getting within suitable range, open- ed flre on the forts near the coast. The _ batteries on Hwang Chin answered-from heavy guns. These were the strongest forts at Port Arthur, their armament be- ing four krupp guns of no less'than 30 caliber. Tho squadrons approaching with- inrangc of such ordnance expected a. ter- rible cannonadc and were not a little as- tonished by the weakness of the Chinese resistance. It is true that they opened fire upon the ships, but their shells always fell short of the mark. The sailors sup- posed this failure to be due to the inferior gunnery of the Chinese and greeted each shell as it dropped into the sea with loud shouts of derision. , . The officers, however, were puzzled by a performance to them unexplainable, in- asmuch as they knew that the artillery in the forts, whatever the faultiness of its handling, could not possibly lack force. Meanwhile the celebrated naval station of China was stormed from the land side, and the defenders of the fort on Hwang Chin hill were either killed or taken pris- oners, their retreat having been cut off by the invaders. The Commander’s Request. When the officers that defended the Fort Hwang Chill were brought before the J ap- anese generals, one of them, apparently an officer of distinction, stepped forward and thus addressed the generals: ‘ “I was the commander of the forts, but now that I have incurred irredccmable disgrace I should like to ask a special favor—merely that I be permitted to com- mit suicide in your presence.” Such a. request was not only contrary to the ordinary habits of the Chinese, but, what was far more surprising, it was con- veyed in perfectly correct Japanese. One of the officers to whom the captive had addressed himself asked him where he had acquired the Japanese language so well. The prisoner replied that he was original- ly a. native of Higo, whence he crossed over to China. many years ago. Subse- quently by some chance he attracted the attention of Viceroy Li, who gradually promoted him till at last he was appointed commander of the forts. After making the confession the officer insisted upon committing suicide, notwithstanding the remonstrances of the Japanese generals. Makinga profound obeisance, he sat down and slow himself according to the strict canons of the Japanese samurai. ' The officers were much struck by the manly conduct and caused the remains to be interred with due ceremony. Novel Street Cleaning Plan.
