"There is a limit beyond which troop* cannot go. no matter how gallant," said an officer of the general staff this morning. "A fifth of the army before Port Arthur is a small es. tlmate of the enemy's loss up to" date. "If the storming pperation/^hich la understood is now progressirffe, fails to give them a foothold in the ring of inner defenses; the Japanese will be compelled by sheer .exhaustion to stop and recuperate, while awaiting addii l/xnol roinf/veAOt^ontn J T " vtvuMi * v uiii/i v/OUica iof auu i, pel JJUil' ally, together with some of my colleagues, will abandon the idea of a general assault and settle down regular siege operations. Starving out the garrison Is less brilliant, but it is quite as effective away of reducing a fortress. The Japanese purpose in rushing matters has doubtless been to release a sectioja of the southern armf and^nable itOo co-operate with the armies in MAchVrta:" The naval critic of the Viedomostl baldly expresses the opinion that the Pprt Arthur squadron would commit ah act of folly if it went out now. He adds: "Although a portion o! Admiral Ouktomsky's ships are in fighting trim, including at least the Peresviet, Poltava, Sevastopol and PaL lada, it would be futile to attempt to break through Admiral Togo's strong lines. ?#The squadron would be lost nHthnnt nmfi f/% XA V """ . WUIV- j tomsky would do better to dismantle his guns and send his men ashore. This would r^thforbe General Stoessel t? the-eJtffent of near 7 heavy and ; 400^ light guns, and 6,000 men. Then, u the worst comes, the ships could be sunk." Japanese Valor. A semi-official Journal while paying a tribute to the heroic defenders of Port Arthur, does not withhold praiss for the extrgprdinary valor of the Japanese besiegers. It says: "Neither a rain of cannon shots, walls of bayonets nor earth strewn with putrifying coroses can arrest their stubborn assaults." *. There are a number of veiled Intimations In both the newspaper dispatches from Uau> Yang and at headQuarters here that General Ktlropatkin IS preparing a diversion against Genera! Kurokl, to" prevent tb^ dispatch of reinforcements to aid the attack of Port Arthur. The Novoe Vremya considers that the principle of the Chinese attitude very serious and contends that the Chinese are quite incapable of preserving neutrality. adding: ? ^ "How otherwise could Japanese war. ships enter Chinese ports at will.
