This case has" brought many In
dians to the Federal courtroom, and
gives it the air of the reservation
itself. Savage apparently has many
friends among those present, and
in the hall and - marshal's office
spent the time in chatting pleasant
ly with tnose who crowded about to
wish him well. ' ''
That, in spite of rigid laws, an
Indian can etill get "firewater,"
was clearly demonstrated to the
Federal officials yesterday. . John
Logedon, a witness for Savage, ap
parently grew tired of tbe dreary
wait and started ont to find some
thing more to his liking.- He found
it in the shape of a Bupply of whis
ky, and it was but a Bhort time un
til he felt that he had sufficient
strength and courage to clean , ont
the entire United States" marshal's
office. It took but a short argu
ment, however, for Deputy Wihou
to convince Logsden that he was all
wrong, and later Judge Bellinger
issued an order that Logsden should
be taken care of ia the county jail
for the night." The court , took oc
casion to remark upon tbe case
with which Indians secured liquor
while in Portland, and directed that
steps be taken to learn who eup
plied this particular Indian with
tbe half-filled bottle on bis person.

Chefoo. Nov. i5. The Russian
torpedo-boat destroyer Ratstoropo-
ny put into this harbor this morn
ing. FiriDg was heard bait an hour
before she entered the. harbor. A
snow storm and high wind was pre
vailing at the tome, and it is be
lieved that the Russian vessel, un
der cover of the storm, made an at
tempt to escape from Port Arthur.
The correspondent ot the Associat
ed Press succeeded in reaching the
destroyer after she arrived here,
but he was not allowed, to board
her. The captain of the Chinese
cruiser Hat Yung was the first per
boo to go on board. Jie held a brief

It is said that the spirit of the

to make any successful defense ot
the fortress.1' It is said further that
many of the Russian . soldiers : are
ready to surrender, but that they
are kept at their posts by officers
who threaten them with revolvers,
and that several soldiers who are
suspected of a desire to desert have
been shot as a warning to other
would-be deserters.

the garrison has almost reached the
