RUSSIANS EXPECT THE FALL Commanders Are Breaking the News Gently to Their Men, So as to Pre pare Them for the Inevl . table Event. Military activity In the vicinity of tho Ehakhe River Is' limited to the extension ' and strengthening of entrenchments. There are Indications that the Japanese have not given up the plan of seeking to force General Kuropatkln Into an other general engagement, although In military circles at St- Petersburg the belief Is expressed that there will be no other big battle In the campaign this year. XONDON, Nov. 7. Special dispatches from. Chefoo and Tien Tain report that the defenders of Port Arthur have re tired to the Llaotl Hill fort, -where they are holding out desperately, entrenched. and with ten puns of large caliber. Many Russians, the correspondent asserts, are deserting and surrendering. The Japan ese, , It Is added, are advancing -with an Irresistible energy. More reliable reports do not confirm these statements, but the Tokloyreport of the capture of "Wantal Hill, a domlnat Ing fort within two miles of the railway terminus, shows that the Japanese are making rapid strides. Bennett Burleigh, the Dally Telegraph's correspondent, reports from Chefoo that there -was no fighting on the night of No vember 5. The troops of the Mikado, he says, have frequently stolen into the native town of Port Arthur 'after dark. but Invariably "were driven out at day light "with heavy losses. The Japanese have four large forts facing the Rus sian "works on Hihlung Mountain, and Shanshu Mountain, where they are mounting naval guns on stone founda tions. Mukden dispatches to Berlin state that the Russian commanders are preparing their men to hear of the fall of Port Arthur. ALEXIEFF NOT TO BLAME. Russian Unpreparedness Was Due Solely to the Czar. SPECIAL, CABLE. . LONDON, Nov. 7. In an Interesting conversation today a highly-placed Bus- clan military officer expressed himself frankly on matters pertaining to Russia's present position. His state of health com pelled him to leave his post at the front some weeks ago. -His regiment, recruited in the Caucasus has, out of 2500 men, only SSO left It participated in the awful strug gle before Llao Tang. It was a great mis. take, he said, to blame the tragedy of the Far East on Vice-Admiral Alexleff. "This erroneous Impression," he said, "seems to prevail all throughout Europe. Alexleff Is not a brilliant man, but he Is a thoroughly competent administrator. The blame for unpreparedness lies higher up. It Is not a pleasure for a loyal Rus slan to make the admission, but we, who know the true state of affairs, have long ago become convinced that the blame rests solely upon the Czar. "Alexleff repeatedly warned him In fact that unless his Far Eastern policy wag modified, it would precipitate war. For six months before the outbreak of hostili ties, our then Minister at Toklo, Baron von Rosen, sent weekly reports of Japan ese preparations and in the strongest lan guage forecasted the crisis. I understand from the best authority that the Czar met every one of these reports with remarks of Incredulity. " T will not permit war,' he said. 'It is elmply out of the question and your fears ere childish. "These reports will enable future his torians to place the blame. In this way it came about our fleet was not ready, that Port Arthur was not adequately pro tected and that our army consisted, of half-trained men and It was not sufficient in numbers. ' "And. what will the future bring? "The future will bring victory. We have learned -& bitter lesson and we will make use of our experiences. "We shall throw an army into Manchu ria which will crush the Japanese." PORT IS WELL PROTECTED. Vladivostok Fortification Has Been in Process for Months. CHEFOO, Nov. 6. As the result of months of preparation, Vladivostok is now strongly protected, according lo Cap tain Halvorsen. of the Norwegian steamer Tungus. which, as told in these dispatches last evening, arrived here five days out from that port, with 700 Chinese refugees. who were unable to live at Vladivostok any longer, owing to the high prices of food and other necessaries, due to the war. Captain Halvorsen says that the Vladi vostok system of fortifications begins many miles outside the city proper and grows stronger as the city is approached. Ships laden with food, cannon, ammunl tion and all sorts of military supplies frequently arrive at Vladivostok, accord ing to Captain Halvorsen, who says that five ships engaged In unloading their car goes were In port when the Tungus sailed. The captain is unable to estimate the strength of the garrison, but he says that everybody at Vladivostok seems to be cither an officer or an ordinary soldier. The European residents of Vladivostok show their confidence in the security of me city by evidencing- an unwillingness to leave it. IZ the Japanese make an at tempt to capture Vladivostok, it is the be lief of Captain Halvorsen that they will una ic to be a second Fort Arthur. The captain says he believes that sub marine boats have arrived at Vladivostok. but adds that he is not positive in this belief, for 'the reason that at present the Russian naval secrets are being most closely guarded. The harbor of Vladi vostok, he says, has been sained for a distance of some seven miles. Ia four miles cf this area cow tact mlnea "have'fceea laid, while in the remaining three miles electric mines have been planted. mail trains arrive at and depart from Vladivostok every day, and -there is now stored there an immense supply of coal taken from mines in the neighborhood of the city. NEW OFFICERS FOR ARMY- Indicatlons That Campaign Is Ended for the Winter. ST. PETERSBURG. Nov. 6. Tho army organ today publishes a long list of new commanders In the Far East, including the appointments of Generals Llnevltch and Kaulbars to the First and Third Ar mies, respectively. Generals Xutnevitch and Sellvanoff will command the Twenty- second and Thirty-seventh Divisions of the' First Corps, whosa chief. General Mendorff. Is resigning on account of ill health. General Slouchevesky, comman der of the Tenth Corps, has also resigned and It is expected that he will be succeed ed by General Jreroitsky. The sweeping character of these changes may imply that there is no Intention on General Kuropatkln s part to assume tne offensive during this year's campaign un less an exceedingly favorable opportunity offers. Indeed, it begins to look like' a deadlock below Mukden for the Winter, unless Port Arthur falls or the Japanese abandon the idea'of renewing the assault upon the fortress there and settle down to a regular siege, either of which would release enough troops to give the prepon derance necessary to try to force the Rus sians out of Mukden. In fact, tho latest dispatches from the front indicate that some such move is preparing, though the best opinion at the War Office holds to the view that there is not likely to be another big battle this year, one of the indications pointed out being the departure of many military at taches for the Winter. General Orloff. whom General Kuropat kln blamed for to Russian reverse at Llao Tang, declares in the course of an interview published in the Novoe Vremya today that he obeyed General Stakelberg's orders in making the much-criticised at tack. In which his division was decimated and he himself wounded. General Kuropatltln apparently Is con vinced that Orloff was not to blame, and the order detaching htm has been revoked and he has been appointed on General Ku ropatkln's staff. MAKING THEIR FRONT STRONG Japanese Are Expected to Soon to Make Advance. MUKDEN, Nov. 6. Quiet continues here. The Japanese are still working hard entrenching their front, which be gins to look like a continuous fort. It Is believed they are preparing seriously to advance, making their front strong, pos sibly In order that It may be held by a small force, while the heavier force en gages In flanking movements. The Japanese have learned by bitter ex perience not to expect much by a frontal attack. They are obliged, however, to maintain a strong front to prevent Gen- WHEN YOU CAN VOTE.

There Is- considerable evidence to indi cate that the Japanese will make every effort to force the Russians out of Muk den, not only for the moral effect on Eu rope, but on the Chinese as welL Muk den Is extremely important to them as Winter quarters. The Japanese continue to receive reinforcements, and it is be lieved by Russian military men that their advancing depends only upon accumulat ing sufficient men. KILLED BY CHINESE BANDITS. Russian-Officer and Interpreters Were Exploring Mongolia. ST. PETERSBURG. Nov. 6. General Kuorpatkln reports that Lieutenant-Colonel Bogdenoff, who was sent by Viceroy Alexleff to explore Mongolia, accompanied by only two Interpreters and a courier, was attacked by Chinese bandits Novem ber 3, near Dulnbln Mountain, on the Chi nese Eastern Railway, and that one of the Interpreters was killed, the others of the party being captured. Cavalry sent in pursuit of the bandits found the corpses of Lieutenant-Colonel Bogdenoff, the second interpreter and the courier, which have been brought to Har bin. General Kuropatkln adds that puni tive measures will be taken. General Kuropatkln also reports the re pulse of a Japanese attack on his right flank on November 5. Six Russians were killed. No reports of fighting today have been received. Will Bid Soldiers Good-Bye. ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 6. According to present arrangements Emperor Nicho las will go this week to Poland to bid farewell to the two rifle brigades sta tioned not far from Sklernlewlce, going thence to Minsk and Vitebsk to bid fare well to the Fourth and Sixteenth Corps. The trip to Poland, however, may be de ferred on account of alarming reports from Warsaw of rioting at Czenstochova, where the Second Brigade is stationed. Linevitch Ordered to the Field.

LONDON, Nov. 6. Business on the stock exchange has been mainly Influenced by the varying phases of the North Sea affair, consols being strongly affected by apprehensions of a possible Anglo-Russian war. When Thursday found the trouble at least temporarily arranged and fears that the bank would raise the dis count rate unrealized, the market rapidly recovered, but remained in a somewhat nervous mood. The American market was disturbed by New York's gold shipments, but operat ors here mainly followed the lead of Wall street, though keeping prices somewhat above the Wall-street level in the expec tations that the markets will Improve after the Presidential election.

CAUSE OF INNSBRUCK AFFAIR Austria Denied Request of Italian Subjects for a Faculty From Their Race at University at Trieste. ROME. Nov. 6. When Premier Glo- lltti came Into power a year ago he found the relations between Italy and Austria in . a very disturbed condition in conse quence of the fact that anti-Austrian demonstrations had been tolerated by Slg nor Zansxdelli, his predecessor, who. It Is alleged, winked at the propaganda for the union with Italy of the Italian provinces that are still subject to Austria, Signor Glollttl changed all this and assured Aus tria she had nothing to fear from Italy. This was publicly emphasized by the meeting at Abazzal in April last of Signor Tlttom. the Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Count Goluchowskl, the Aus trian Chancellor. However, Austria's de nial of the request of her Italian subjects for a national university at Trieste led up to tne troubles at Innsbruck which have endangered good relations between the two governments. Behind all other explanations of the Innsbruck. affair there is the racial hatred between Italians and Aus tro-Germ ana In Italian provinces subject to Austria, the latter element having vainly tried for five centuries to Germanize the provinces. Austria's refusal to -establish an Italian faculty In the University of Trieste has been attributed to the fear that It would result In the university becoming the cen ter of an anti-Austrian propaganda, but recently It was decided to institute an Italian faculty at the Innsbruck Unl vers It v. This went Into effect November 3 when the rioting began. The disturb ances, it is alleged here, were provoked by aggressions on the part of the Ger mans. The Cabinets of Vienna and Rome are doing what they can to smooth over the difficulty. ARTIST GIVEN PUBLIC FUNERAL Gendarmes Keep the Immense Crowds In Order. INNSBRUCK, Nov. t The body of the artist Prezzey, who was stabbed through the heart with a bayonet during the riot ing here the night of November 3. was buried this afternoon in the Innsbruck cemetery in the presence of a great crowd and was an imposing ceremony. Perfect order was maintained. A strong force of gendarmes kept the route clear and large detachments of troops were held in re serve. The City Council had decided that the funeral should be at the public expense and black flags were hung on all public buildings. The coffin was followed to the cemetery by the burgomaster, members of the City Council, the rector of the university, members of the Academic Sen ate and students' clubs carrying flags. The coffin was hidden under masses of wreaths. Burgomaster Gretl and Deputy Schalk delivered orations at the side of the grave. After the funeral crowds' promenaded the streets singing German patriotic niucs and 3000 people assembled on Maria Te resa street, where Deputies Berger and Stein delivered inflammatory addresses. The police interposed and the two depu ties fled to the station, where they took trains for Vienna to avoid arrest. Much excitement prevails throughout the city. Disorders were renewed late this evening. The gendarmes finally scat tered the rioters. ITALIAN EXTREMISTS LOSE. New Deputies Just Elected Are Mostly Conservatives. ROME, Nov. 6. The general election for members of the Chamber of Depu ties took place today and up to midnight no serious Incident had been reported. Results ascertained from about three fifths of the constituencies show that the power of the extreme parties has been diminished, without, however, materially augmenting the number of Ministerial followers, as most of the new recruits are Conservatives who may be expected soon to abandon Premier Gloletti, a Liberal. Sonnlno, tho leader of the Constitution al opposition, has lost some of his fol lowers, owing to the race that Milan, which formerly was represented by ex tremists, has elected two Conservatives, one Clerical and two Socialist Reform ers, one of whom.
