Petersburg, Feb, 25.-- 1:45 p. m. No further details are available today of the unsuccessful attempt of tha Japanese to bottle up the Russian fleet at Port Arthur by sinking big merchant men at thu mouth of the harbor. The brief details contained in the offl-ridispatch indicated that the coup was planned, according to the usual New York, Feb. 25. Many false reports are being circulated here, says a Herald dispatch from fit- - Petersburg, one being to the effect that Rear Admiral Evans, U. 8. N., has 2,uo0 marines ready to dispatch at a moments notice. This only again stimulates certain feeling among classes. One newspaper publishes a report that 50,000 Chinese soldiers have gone over to the Japanese army. As a consequence of such rumors the belief seems to grow that the outlook is tending In the Far East towards international complications. Dalny. Are Still Burning. 4 ppp444444444 tit.

Crest praise is given to tha Russian battleship Iletvizan. which lay outside the harbor entrance, for her gallant work in besting off the enemy. Her part in the action shows that the reports of the Injuries which uht is said to hare sustained in the attack of February 8th, were grossly exaggerated. The official dispatches do not make dear the exact number of ships sent in for the purpose of blockading the throat of the harbor, or whether the tour vessels were destroyed beached by the lire from the shore batteries or by the fire of the Relvizan. Consequently also the unknown additional detalia are expected from Viceroy Alexleff in the course of the day. As he is at Mukden the report of the commander at Port Arthur first goes to him. and', thence is forwarded to the exar. Tha report that after daylight floating torpedoes were seen in the roadstead causes anxiety. According to the latest advices the Japanese fleet yesterday waa still visible on the bnrlson.
