Their feel- ing seemed to be one of relief rather than exultation. Everything went on in the usual routine. There was noth- ing save the suspension of the bom- lmrdmen‘t that was calculated to give an idea that anything unusual was afoot. The appearance of Clem. Nogi put an end to all doubt.

The Conference. The conference took place at the Vit. nige ot muss-m, about two miles from After detailing the duration of the conference. the despatch of messengers, and discussing the causes of the sur- render. the correspondent continues: The spectacle of a modern siege on a great scale is positively appalling. A mere sight of Shushishan and of the destruction wrought by mines was en- ough to strike terror to the bravest heart and to shake the nerve of any garrison. however gallant and devoted. The fort in a mere heap of debris, amid which the defenders had either been on- tombed or blown to pieces. In the ca- polier lay scores of fostering corpses, and near the parapet were two grue- some heaps of what had once been men, soldiers slain at their posts many days ago. ing the brown heights towards the num- mit of Jenni. It seemed as though a new and even more deadly phase of the struggle was being entered upon, and thnt the end was yet far distant, but at 4 o'clock in the afternoon a Rus- sian officer appeared before the Jap. anese outposts with a flag of truce and asked for a parley. He was the bearer of a message from Gen. Stoessel to the Japanese commander. Such an incident had not been uncommon late. ly, and the arrival of the envoy excited only musing interest. So the fight went on utfmterruptedly until darkness closed on the hills and covered the sea and the valley in which lay the doomed city. News Spread Like Wildfire. Throughout the night the guns sent their sum-u messages of war to the death, and the long rays ot the search- lights Ilitted hitner and timber like ghosts over the face of the black hills. only to Gem. Nogi and his staff was it known that Gen. Stueseel had, at last, come to the conclusion that in: case was hope-lees, and had surrendered.

The note was one 'of military simplicity. There was no parade of formality beyond the posting of a single sentry near the on- tranee to the compound. The Russian officers. who were all smartyl dressed in full uniform, numbered sewn. In a later despatch, dated Jun. 4, the correspondent says that pending the completion of the evacuation, the sol- diers are making an inspection of the forts. in many cases every trace of the works has disappeared. 'lhe ruins resemble hills that have been shaken by a mighty convulsion. It was en- dent that the key to the position had been taken by the Japanese, for the works actually in their hands dominate the whole inner line oi defences, and render them useless.

The trmendous effect of the explo- sitmts which wrecked Sungshu Mountain fort, the last of the forts guarding the main defences of the eastern fortified ridge, in which half of the defenders were killed and the remainder entomb- ed or made prissoziere, completed the disorganization of the defence.

He asked for a. conference to settle these terms. , The subsequent spirited assault by the Japanese upon the principal line of outer toviifieattons and the higher hills of the tortified ridges followed imme- diately after the capture of Sungshu fort was made with feeble opposition, and the night of Jan. 1 saw the be- siegers in possession of the upper line of the fortified ridge from East Keck- wan Mountain to the western extremity.

All the correspondents with General Nogi's army concur m declaring that excellent discipline is maintained. Itt Japanese rejoicings ceased at midnigh Monday, and the troops then worked energetically to help the garrison. Sup- plies were sent into the fortress, and all the surgeons who could be spared from the Japanese hospitals were sent in to aid the Russians. but the demands on the Japanese medical stores have been so great that the doctors have been uti- able to do all that is needed. Gen. Nogi now keenly feels the tre- mendous tsattrifiee of Japanese lives in. volved in the success of his plans. Bis outward appearance has changed. and he looks aged and haggard. He has grown careless about his dress. Every branch of the army pays tributes to his ceaseless activity and solicitude for the welfare of his staff. He refers to Gen.

The Daily Mail correspondent at Port Arthur confirms the report that the Jap. anese allowed the departure of four-tor. pedo boats and a. transport, saying that they were permitted to depart as a trib, ute to the courage of the garrison.
