St. Petersburg’s Version.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 7, 8:11 a.
m.—The only reference made to the re
ported sea fight off Port Arthur Is
contained In a delayed special dispatch
from Chefoo, which says that on tho
night of October 5 the sound of firing
was heard In the direction of Port Ar
thur and that searchlights were seen
to be working In that vicinity. It Is
thought there may have been a battle,
but no confirmation of the report of
one has been received. The dispatch
further states that, in spite of the
tightening of the Japanese blockade,
Junks are still arriving from the for
tress bearing refugees, who say that
nil the attacks of the Japanese have
been repulsed and that it will be nec
essary to Institute a long siege and a
complete blockade In order to reduce
the fortress. The blockade, according
to the refugees, is not completely
effective, junks . continually arriving
with food supplies and munitions for
the garrisons. The Japanese have In
stituted a close patrol over the entire
Yellow sea, stopping every vessel
sighted. The captain of the British
steamer Chennn, which was stopped by
a Japanese cruiser while on her way
to Chefoo from Taku, but was allowed
to proceed after her cargo had been
examined, has made protest against
the way ho was boarded and searched
on the high seas.

CHELIABINSK, Russia. Oct 7.—
Capt Andreiff, of the Russian armored
cruiser Rossia, of the Vladivostok
squadron, passed through here on Oc
tober 6 on the way to eastern Russia.
He is suffering from an acute form of
nervous prostration, the result of the
terrific tension during the naval fight
with the Japanese fleet under Admiral
Kamlmura. The same ailment affects
many of the wounded who are being In
valided home, and who look like living
corpses. It seems Impossible for the
nervous system to recuperate from the
awful strain to.which It is subjected In
a modern naval battle.
Hasegawa to Command.
TOKIO, Oct. 7, 3 p. m.—Lieut.-Gen.
Hasegawa. late commander-ln-chief of
the Imperial Guards division, will de
part for Korea today to assume com
mand of the Japanese forces there, It
Is probable that the Korean army will
be dispersed or brought under Jap
anese command. Gen. Hasegawa is
expected to effect this change at an
early date. It is probable that this
Japanese move is made In order to ex
pel the bands of Cossacks now oper
ating In western and northwestern
Korea.
BOSTON, Mass., Oct 7.—The Massa
chusetts Democratic state convention
here today was one of the most har
monious in the party’s history. With
the exception of a brief debate over
the proposition to reduco the member
ship at large on the state committee
from twenty-five to eighteen % the pro
ceedings were conducted without fric
tion. The reduction was made by the
convention. The entire state ticket,
headed by William L. Douglas, a manu.
facturer of Brockton, for governor, was
nominated by acclamation.
The platform adopted by tho conven
tion endorses the national candidates
and platform, assails the protective
tariff, charging that the system of pro
tection is responsible for the prosper
ity of "the huge industrial giant, other
wise known ns ‘Infant Industries,' bask
ing peacefully In the sunshine of tho
Dingley tariff, content with the assur
ance that no Republican government
agent will ‘run amuck’ or In any way
disturb their monopolistic tranquility.”
The platform also declares In favor
of the Philippine independence and ar-
ralgnes President Roosevelt for usurp
ing powers conferred upon congress
and the Judiciary in his pension order
and Panama policy.
The convention closed with the adop
tion of resolutions In memory of tho
late Senator Hoar.

Baltic Fleet Again.
ST. PETERSBURG. Oct. 7. 6:08 p.
m.—Up to this hour the war office has
Pot received fresh advices from the
front.
The admiralty continues without
news of the reported sea fight off Port
Arthur as well as of the Toklo report
of the wrecking nnd damaging of Rus
sian warships at Port Arthur by the
Jrwnese land batteries. As a portion
of the squadron hns been going out oc
casionally to bombard the Japanese
land positions, the possibility that
some of the Russian vessels may have
been damaged by the Japanese bat
teries Is admitted.
The admiralty announces that the
Baltic fleet will be ready to sail as soon
os the battleship Orel and the cruisers
Oleg, Zemtchug and Izumrud, which
■ailed from Cronstndt today, arrive at
Reval. The Ice-breaker Ermak will
accompany the fleet.
The Associated Press learns from an
admiral occupying a high position that
the proposition to send the fleet to tho
far east by way of Cape Horn has been
decided In the negative.
The admiralty Is unable to furnish
information concerning the two Rus
sian ships reported to be cruising in
Torres strait. South Pacific ocean, be
tween New Guinea and Australia. If
liny Russian ships have been sighted in
Torres strait, or if any Russian ships
are now there, they must have been
sent out from Vladivostok by Vice-Ad
miral Skrydloff.
