Wilx. Fight It Otn -The flood of telegrams from abroad bringing talk of peace, arouses only resentment In official circles here, a I even many Liberals, who are urg ?tly pressing the government for re irms, aroused by the dreadful story heroism and suffering of the Port A Ihur garrison, declare emphatically ag Inst any cessation of hostilities ntll Russia's honor is vindicated by a victory In Manchuria Equal r^entment Is aroused by foreign critlfsm of General Stoessel for blowing'up the ships In the harbor and destroying the town of Port Arthur, when he could no longer defend them. Vmwrnr Nicholas has already grant ed General's Stoessel's request that his officers be allowed to five their parole. In Russia, for the moment, the people seem to have forgotten their differences In the common grief. The revolutionists, who had Intended to mark, the event with demonstrations, evidently found the moment inopportune and no disturbance Is reported, anywhere In Ruasla~todai The government's position Is a [lfflcult one. It has enemies ready to ake advantage of whatever course I adopts, and peace under present conl Hons would probably compromise i le dynasty more than their deter ilnatlon to continue the war to the bl ter end. The emperor will arrivi here today, and a council of his advlsi a will likely be held Immediately. 1 ;uch as the situation is complicated y agitation at home, the war party seer i still completely In the ascendant, an I the indications are that the emperor1! idvlsers are practically unanimous tl at Russia's prestige abroad and the ?ecurity of the dynasty at home maki it impossible for Russia to accept a humiliating peace dictated by Japan.- Bt. Petersburg dispatch of Wednesd y. Russian Military Fanaticism.? Among the interesting fetters from Manchuria, says a St. Petfrsburg dispatch, is one Just receivedtrom Artillery Captain Urgorsky, wm tells of a curious, state of religious ( exaltation produced among the uned mated Russian soldiers by the stralied excitement of the last few montha "In two of the Siberian legiments." he writes, "a sect who call themselves "Krovoupitsi" (Bloodsuclfers) has made considerable progrme. These men have sworn to accept ao quarter, to expose themselves as moth as possible inrthe battlefield, and to keep as far as possible an exactly accurate account of the number of 'heghen' they have killed. To slaughter a mce which rejects Christ they believe! to be a pious act; and many of tfcm dread nnv /?onriunion of Deace which would leave a single Japanese ali*|. At the recent battle of Sha-ho som| of these men caqpe Into great prominence. They stood up In the trenches, .screamed fierce defiance, and attempted to rush out to rpeet the enemy. Onepian kept constantly exposing himself where the fire was hottest, and when a bullet went through his chest stretmed delightedly, 'Now, I am saved, brother," They are Christian dervishes} In fact." r Situation at Port Arthur.?Special dispatches from Tokio tot London, say that the Port Arthur ganison was marshalled at 9 o'clock Thursday morning at Yahutsul In accordance with the terms of the supplementary * agreement. The Standard's Port Arthur correspondent reports that the town appears to have been a little damage! by the bombardment. Carriages and rickshaws. he says, are moving about with well dressed people who apparently are anything but starved. The ruined forts resemble hills shaken by a mighty convulsion and in many cases every trace of the works has disappeared. According to the Daily Mall's Weihalwei correspondent the British cruiser Andromeda, which sailed from Weihaiwei Wednesday morning for Port Arthur with hospital stores and * surgeons, and which was not allowed to make a landing at Port Arthur, had a narrow escape, having passed two floating mines. Japanese officials In London consider that it was solely on account of .the danger of the vessel striking mines that the Andromeda's aid was declined. It is stated, however, that the British admiral omitted the formality of first asking whether assistance was acceptable to the Japanese authority ties. Russia* Port Arthur Figures.?a report received a| Tokio Thursday from General Nogi's headquarters largely increases the figures of the surrendered garrison and intimates that the forces handed over to the Japanese at Port Arthur will be 32,000, exclusive of 15,000 or 16,000 sick or wounded, maklag a rough lotal of * 48,000. % The report is a?f follows: . "As previously reported, the transfer of the objects mentioned in article 2 of the capitulation compact took place on January, 4, and the transfer ^ of the forts and batteries has been completed. "The prisoners will be assembled at the place appoints*! on Janaary 5, but the investigation' relating to these prisoners is so complicated that the result cannot be iported at prifsent. "Reports received up to date are as follows: "Eight generals, four admirals, 57 colonels aiidhiaJors, 100 captains and commanders, 531 ar my captains and lieutenants, tOO naval lieutenants and naval officer*. 99 aimy officials, 109 surgeons, 20 chaplains, of the rank and fl% of the army 22,434, of the rank and file of the navy 4,500, army noncombatants 1.645, naval non-combatants 500; t?Ul 32,207. "Besides these there are about 15,000 or 16,000 sick and wounded in the hospitals. The. volunteers are chiefly included in the list of non-combatants. "One hundred saddle horses and) 1.870 draft horses were surrendered." OT Interest |ln the Russo-Japanese war now center* on the country around Mukden, the fall of Port Arthur leaves the Japanese forces that have been engaged In the siege free to reinforce thd army that Is confronting KuropatklA and no'withstanding the bitter cold?' tkeather hese forces can be transported to Mukd >n within a very few days. It is al? ost inconceivable that there Miould he any heavy lighting at Mutden befc^ /next spring; but this is notakogetlu Impossible. Both sides have been do*:hg some unusual things during this war and nobody need be very much surprised even if they should attempt & decisive battle in temperature below aero.
