The Russian vessels In tho harbor with their great guns aided the land forces In repelling the attack. Tho fighting still goes on." Russian Claim to Have Sunk Four Jap anese Uattleshlpi. St. Petersburg, Juno 10. Thoro is great rejoicing In tho Russian capital this morning over tho receipt of a dls patch from Llao Yang which Indicates that Instead of being captured, as ru mored yostorday, tho Russian gnrrl son nt Port Arthur has benton off nn nttnek In force of tho Japanese, and still retains possession of tho strong hold. Not only that, hut Admiral SkrydlofT hns made his way out of Vladivostok with tho Russian Sllior- Inn llcot, nnd hnB mado n Junction with tho Port Arthur Bqundron, nftor a desporato fight with tho Japancso float undor Admiral Togo. Tho Joint squadronu aro now roportod insldo of Port Arthur roadBtcad. Tho Japaneso lost four of their best ships, whllo tho Russians escaped practically un scathed. Tho news of this Russian succobs wns brought to Gonoral Kuropntkln by n number of Chincso, and their stork's nro so rlreunirtnntlnl as to be considered reliable Tho flghtlr.s Is understood to havo taken placo on Monday and to havo continued on Tuesday. Tho account for St. Petersburg may only l;n an amplification of tho rumors afloat at Chofoo and Shanghnl enrllnr In tho week to tho effect that tho Russian fleet nt Port Arthur had made a sortie and sunk sovernl of tho Japancso picket fleet which was keeping watch of tho harbor. Tho ronort that tho VladlvostoK squadron had reached Port Arthur Is hardly credible In view of tho fact that Admiral Skrydloff has recontly stated that tho squadron should not bo sont to sea, hut should Do retained at Vladivostok until tho Baltic flcot arrived.

Th Inten tion, of course, was to upset the ills roaltlon of troops, made by tho mili tary commnndor-ln-chlof and coinpol him to glvo battlo, oven at tho risk of defeat. "Fortunatoly tho good Bonsj of tho omporor provallod and ho contented himself with inquiring of General Kur opatkln It tho situation permitted of hla advancing to rollnvo tho boleag ucrcd stronghold, saying ho wished It could bo done, but leaving It to, his general to decldo. General Kuropat kln replied It was lmpossiblo at pros eut to do anything for General Stocs- scl and his command.
