The first news of the garrison's awful plight saddened the thought, for the refugees had many frieudu and relatives at Pori Arthur, but tha shock wearing off, has left only satisfaction with th soldier who so heroically upheld Russian traditions. Tear greeted tbe destroyers yesterday; today, three launches were received with amllcs. Even when the Japanese cruiser Akita ushlma cams triumphantly into the harbor this morning and exchanged salutes with the American cruiser Baltimore, tha Russians betrayed no resentment. They paid scant attention to the seven Japanese torpedo boat deatroyeis, which tbe lifting fog disclosed, but gazed with admiring hospitality while their sailors renewed their acquaintance with good meat, potatoes and dearly loved champagne. One Russian officer, who had not walked on land for four months, said that being here waa like coming from n a tomb into paradise. The Chinese authorities are gratified that the arrival of the Japanese boat destroyers torpedo lias panned off an far without iufrlnging and upon the neutrality of the port lowering China's dignity.

RUSSIANS BLUFFED. Che Fuo, Jal. 3. 8:30 p. m. Captain Kartzow, commanding the Rus-1torpedo host destroyer llotula, which escaped from Port Arthur and entered the harbor of Che Foo Monday morning, toll a curious story ot bluffing' by the Russians at tho beginning of the war, when, although there was plenty of ammunition at Poil Arthur, .here waa none on the shirs under Golden Hill aave blank cartridges used for salutes. On three occasions when the Japanese warships approached at long range, the Russians opened a noisy lire with blank nr (munition, the Japanese in each instance retiring. Prisoners taken by the Russians related that later, after the Russian whips had revived ammunition, the Japanese learned of the tune and were greatly chagrined that they had not taken adiaiilage of the opportunity. Our history li.i been replete with such makeshift-i,he said. st COMMENT IN PARIS. Paria, Jan. I According to the semi- official advices regarding the terms of the rapitulation of Port Arthur, signed last night, the Russian officers, bnt not the rank and return to file, will be permitted to Russia, but thia is not positive. The Russian officials strongly incline to the view that the war will go on without reference to Port Arthur. The naval attache aaya the mission of tha second squadron waa to save Tort Arthur. Therefore, since this n cannot be accomplished, the squadron will probably await until reinforced by n I bird and probably a fourth squadron. He believes Russia will retake Port Arthur liy asaulta by land and sea. Thia will require time for adequate naval and military conmia-sio- centration, thus prolonging the one or tax year. The attache Th capitulation Tokio, Jan. 8 war adds tsrma Indicate that tha Russian rank and fits of the garrison of Port Arthur will come to Japan as prisoners.
