Russian Admiral Commended For Not Going Out to Engage the Japanese Squadron—Chinese Official Fails to Make New Year Calls. St. Petersburg, March 23.—1:7 p.m. —Further details of yesterday’s at tack on Port Arthur aro expected dur ing the day but nothing in the way of private or newspaper dispatches sup plementing the official accounts have been received up to the present time. According to the information here there now exists a complete embar go upon newspaper dispatches direct from Port Arthur. The military au thorities seem to manifest no displeas ure at tho Japanese tactics yesterday. On the contrary, they declare such bombardments only wear out the guns and machinery of the ships and wastes ammunition without compensating ad vantages. They point to the com paratively Insignificant damage done by fhe bombardments of Santiago by the American ileet as proof of their futility. From the positions the Japanese took the latter could not see either the town or the batteries. The range was from 0 to 8 miles, with a high angle of fire, and precision was impossible. Although the gener al target was large, only a lucky chance could really damage the batter ies or ships. So far as known the Japanese accomplished nothing yes terday. On the other hand, the Rus sians had better luck, a shell from the battleship Retvizan, which was firing over the hill, landing on one of the Japanese battleships. Of course it is admitted that those pot shots are trying to the garrison. Vice Admiral Makaroff, the naval commander at Port Arthur is being commended for his self-restraint in not risking his ships In an engagement with the enemy. A prominent Russian general ex plained to the correspondents of the Associated Press how absolutely es sential conservatism of the Russian na val commander at Port Arthur was at present. He said: “If Admiral Makaroff, whose reputa tion would be to go out and meet the enemy, should give battle upon the approaching of tho Japanese and defeat thorn his victory would be fruitless, as necessarily it would be purchased by sold injuries to ships, and our lack of adequate docking facilities at Port Arthur would render it impossible to refit them, whereas the Japanese have ample docks in which to repair their vessels.” The feeling hero is that tho Japa nese tactics are preliminary to a land ing on the peninsula in an attempt to cut off Port Arthur simultaneously with a general bombardment and com mencement of a siege. For this the Russians declare they are fully pre pared. During the last ten days a general shutting down upon newspa per telegrams from the Far East has been noticeable. Thig Is owing to increased precautions to prevent the enemy from obtaining news of the movements of the Russian troops. The Russians are being massed in force along their line from Feng Huang Chenfl northward for 30 miles., while their second line extends from Mouk- don to Hal Cheng. All the rolling stock required for use in the Far East has now crossed lake Baikal. The last locomotive was taken over yesterday. Prince Ehilkoff, the minister of pub lic works, leaves Baikal in a few days. Forty trucks of grain reach Port Ar thur daily. Chicago Professor to Organize Mock Government. Chicago, March 23.—The public schools of Chicago will be organized into miniature national, state and municipal governments., If plans under consideration by Superintendent Ed win G. Cooley, aro carried out. Superintendent Cooley believes that by bringing pupils into organization representing three different stages of government, civics can be taught with better results than in any other way. The plan contemplates the election of a national house of representatives from the Grammar schools and the election of senators from the high schools. Each elementary school will send one representative to the nation al congress and each High school will send several senators to tho higher branch of the mock national govern ment. The state and city govern ments will be formed In much the same way. The president and all of ficers of the different branches of gov ernment will be elected by the Aus tralian ballot syste m&nd in every detail the machinery of the national government will be copied. The little government will be found ed on the principles of co-education and equal suffrage.
