SAID RUSSIA WAS READY Refused Hearing In Court, He Re reals Secret Documents in News paper Discrepancy Between the Acts and Testimony. ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 20. The court having refused him an opportunity to re fute onthe witness stand General Kuro patkln's testimony at the trial of General Btoessel that before the war with japaD Count Witte had recommended the-abandonment of Port Arthur, considering the opening at Port Dalny had destroyed the Importance or the fortress. Count Witte has broken his long silence In a two column letter to the Novoe Vremya. It is an interesting disclosure of ex cerpts from, secret documents, which throw light upon the inner councils be fore the war, and Reeks to prove that Kuropatkin was guilty of misleading the whole government by an estimate of Rus sia's preparedness for war. In 1903, ac cording to Count Witte, after a tour df Inspection In the Far Kast, General Kuro patkin, in a written report to the Em peror, said: "Two years ago we thought ourselves ready to defend the Amur region and North Manchuria. Today we cannot only do that, but be perfectly confident of the fate of Port Arthur." Count Witte narrates that the site of Port Dalny and the idea to create a com mercial port there was suggested by Ku ropatkin himself as a means of restrict ing Port Arthur to military uses and at the same time carrying out the promise to open any acquired Chinese port to the trade of all nations. Count Witte multiplies Instances of dis crepancy between Kuropatkln's official acts and the General's testimony in the Btoessel case. Ho also accuses him of not having provided sufficient siege guns at Port Arthur. The Count promises sensational developments. Secretary Root Speaks. WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.

The prose cution also brought out tnat McKnight was 6ent money by Powers to bring a number of Harlan County witnesses to testify at this trial. Counsel had a sharp argument over the admission of McKnlght's private account book con taining a memorandum of the witnesses' expenses.

Hurst testi fied to the good character of the "moun tain army," saying that he was instruct ed by Taylor and Powers to bring repre sentative citizens from his county and he did so. This corroborates Powers anu other witnesses as to Powers' protesting against any show of violence in the meet ing at which Sheriff Burton made threats against the Goebelites.
