" : The departure of the ships was de cided upon at the council of war, at which it 'was determined to negotiate for a surrender of the fortress. Rear Admiral Wlren asked General 8toes- sel's permission to save the destroy ers, etc., which- was readily granted, The destroyers, the- transport and the launch crept out of the harbor be tween S-and -ltjaat night, without en countering the Japanese. .-It. was. determined here to disarm the four .destroyers, .which lashed themselves together. In the absence of a Chinese warship, the commis sioner of customs took charge of the Russian craft. The latter ordered the crews of the torpedo boat destroyers and a number of invalid Russian sail ors who were on board of, them to go to the Chinese fort, where quarters for tbcm are available. Tonight the customs men and details from the guardships are preventing foreigners from going on board the Russian vessels. 11.
