A Russian torjiedo Isist destroyer was sunk and several Russian torpedo boat destroyers1 seriously The fort bati cries were damaged. subjected to a heavy bombardment, lasting four hours. The naval of the land works have generally been ineffective, yet the peculiar topographical conditions of Port Arthur make immunity from serious loss from bombardment almost impossible. Admiral Togo's torHdo flotilla opened the action by boldly steaming In tinder the batteries and successfully placing a number of mechanical mines at the mouth of the harbor. Following that there was a desperate howto-bow encounter between the torpedo boat destroyers in which the Japanese appear to have scored a elear vietory. Then followed a long range duel between the cruisers ending In the 'retirement of the Novlk and Bayan, the only Russians engaged. The closing action was the bombardment of the Inner harbor by the Japanese battle-shipThe latter took a position southwest of Port Arthnr and used only their guns There were 24 guns In the squadron of six battleships and each gun fired five rounds, making a total of 120 huge projectiles that, were burled at the city. The bombardment waa deliberate and carefully calculated. In order, to aid in perfecting the firing Admiral Togo stationed tha cruisers in a position due east of the entrance to the harbor and at a right angle to the battleehijw. The cruisers ulaserved the range and effect of the firing and signaled the results and suggestions by wireless telegraphy. These otwerva-tlon- s and reports greatly aided the gunners in their effort to make every shell count. Admiral Togo was unable to definitely learn the results of the bombardment, but later private reports indicate that much destruction was caused In the city, where a scries of fires broke out. There was also serious damage to the batteries. Captain BlioJIro Asai. commanding the flotilla of torpedo boat destroyers which engaged the Russian destroyHe ers, is the hero of the attack. had only three destroyers, but attacked the six Russian destroyers, ordering his craft to chise In wnn the enemy. He steamed so close to the enemy's destroyers that the vessels almost touched and a desperate conflict ensued from which the Russians retired badly disabled. the deEngineer Minamlsawa-ostroyer Kssuml received a mortal wound. Minamlsawa participated in the first torpedo attack on Port Arthur, also In the attempt to bottle the harbor by sinking commercial steamers. He was commended both times for his gallantry. The Japanese flotilla which sunk the mines at the mouth of the harbor later engaged two Russian destroyers. This flotilla was commanded by Commander M. Tsuch-iy- a. Admiral Togos object In sending cruisers to Talian Wan bay was to encompass the destruction of a signal station nfine depot on Hash an 1 so. This object, was accomplished and the buildings were demolished. Rear Admirals Dews and Nriu participated in the operations under Admiral Togo, the details of whose operations became known In Japan only today, the news creating Intense enthusiasm. Admiral Togo's report came last night but. It was with held until shown to the Emperor. Admiral Togo Is permanently numbered among the heroes of the empire. The latest rrjsirls place the Japanese losses at nine killed and five seriously hurt. The Jaiianeso fleet was not seriously damaged in the firing. u ts h f Washington, March 13.
