Heavy firing was heard In the direction of Port Arthur last night, continuing from midnight to 3 oclock this morning. A copy of the newspaper Novlkras, published at Port Arthur, received here, contains an account of the fighting up to July Tth. It says that the beexact strength of the Japanese sieging the city Is about 30,000, which la not sufficient against a fortress like this unless they expect assistance." After three days' fighting the paper says the Russians retained the position on the left flank which they originally occupied and the previous forcing of the right flank was rectified, leaving both Green and Semaphore hills in Russian hand. The paper adds: "Of course this was not won without losses, some of which will strike the hearts of our countrymen."

Admiral Togo reports four Russian cruisers, two gunboats and seven torpedo boat destroyers debouched from Port Arthur harbor Saturday morning, preceded by steamers clearing away the mines.

No damage was sustained by the Japanese. FIGHTING CONTINES AROUND PORT ARTHUR CHE FOO, July 11. A fair wind brought a fleet of junks from Port Arthur yesterday, carrying both Chlneae and Europeans. Reports which they bring of conditions at Port Arthur are contradictory, but they all say that the Japanese division from the north ward Is entrenched seven miles from the marine camp, while another division from the eastward Is fighting continuously and with the aid of the fleet Is endeavoring to gain a position commanding the town and the naval basin. A Russian says that the Japanese occupied the summit of Takushan mountain, which is about three miles from Port Arthur, on the night of July 6th, with mounted battery and artillery. On July Tth the Rusalan cruiser Hovlk and four gunboats went out under protection of the guns on Golden hill and shelled a Japanese battery which was surrounded and captured finally by Rusalan infantry. The fighting to the eastward of Port Arthur has been very heavy since July 4th. The Japanese ships along the short are shelling the Russian position In the hills from daylight until dark, while the artillery Is Just as busy from the hills. The smoke from the artillery on the hills around Port Arthur la seen almost continuously. Dead and wounded are being brought In at all hours and many private houses have been turned Into hospitals. Only skirmishes have occurred to the northward. The main Japanese force Is ten miles away, but Japanese scouts have been seen In the vicinity of the marine camp which commands the principal pass to the hills directly back of Port Arthur.

Upon leaving the saloon he saw- a man cross- ing to the platform In a boat, but could not recognise him us the tuiin he saw In the xuliHiit, Mims Lima 3lurkle, the next witness, stated that she win sitting on the west kIiIc of the lagoon when the explosion occurred. She was struck in the face with sparks. Covering her face with her liands her companion, Mr. George Williamson, dragged her to her feet and both ran. Her opinion was that all the fireworks went off at once. She observed a woman on the plut-for- m and saw one of the men there washing his head. This was prior to the explosion. An adjournment was taken at this stage until 2 p. m. AFTERNOON SESSION. The Investigation was resumed at 2 oclock. Fred Shields was the first witness called. He testified that he had had thirty years experience with fireworks and their discharge. When shown the bomb he stated that It should have lieen Inserted with the fuse upwards. From the time the first firework was Ignited he made the remark: That's the end of It. Be cause, In his opinion, the man who was operating the fireworks was either a foo or drunk. He saw the man Ignite the skyrocket, which was not In proper position, and the fire from It set the other fireworks on fire. Replying to Mr. Richards the witness stated that the bomb did not go off until all the fireworks hud been exploded, but he understood that several people received slight Injuries by being struck by fragments of the fireworks. He sold fireworks In Ogden alHint thirty years ago, nnd he could not conceive of a bomb of the description exhibited to him being exploded with the fuse downward. He conducted firework displays at Glen-woPark for three years. In reply to questions put by Mr. Lessenger the witness gave a detailed explanation of the construction of a bomb and the effect It would have when exploded. Mr. Shields was still testifying when this report closed. od SHOT DOWN BY BROTHER-IN-LA- W Young Man Who Foil Through Railroad Bridga at Croyden Ditd This Morning.
