Tlie press dispatches stale that since the Japs began to asaoalt Port Arthur, np to the 23d, they have lost 28,000 muD killed. In apito of thia the little brown men liave reraiated and liuve finally enptorod the strong hold, which surrendered Wednesday. This will release another army so that General Knroiaukin will have to hustle or hu will be forced to sur render. The Jaianiieo have again demonstrated the old snying thai nothing socceeds like success. Since the assassination of the Rus sian minister Von PlchveatHt. Peters burg the question of calling an inter national nuti-anarchist rongiess, to lie held in Paris, is once more being seri ously considered and may be realized this full. There aro indications, how ever, that the ground is liceoraing too hot for the apostles of dynamite and stiletto even in Paris and Switzerland and a general exedus of anarchists and nlhilsits to the United States would not surpriso the French secret police. It Is strongly hojied that the United Stutes will join in any international mcuHnrns which muy lie adopted by Kuropenn countries for the extermina tion of tliexo dangerous criminals, to whom the life of no prominent man it sscred.
