MACON, GA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 30, 1904. DAILY—87.00 A YEAR DEOVE OUT THE BUB8I1S JORCE Japanese Won Possession of Trenches A STUBBORN CONTEST The Fight Was Fierce For Fire Hours ONE MORE LINE YET Position of Besiegers at Rihlung and Keekwan Mountains is Most Premia ing and Last Attack Was Made With Design of Furthor Increasing Their Power There. CHE FOO, Nov. 29.—Chinese and Japan el! e advices received here today, while hot beyond question, indicate the practical certainty that another general assault on Port Arthur began Nov, 24 hnd was continuing Nov. 27. It Is certain that there has been severe fighting. The only question is whether the assault was sufficiently widespread to be called general. The fighting Is with the object of capturing additional Russian trenches. The summit torts seemingly were not attacked. The Chinese say that one train of 30 cars recently arrived at Port Dalny with wounded men prisoners were captured. To Better Position. As frequently indicated the Japa nese position is most promising at Klhlung mountain and Keekwan mountain hnd the latest attack was designed to further increase the power of these positions. A detachment of the eleventh divison began the ad vance* during the afternoon of Nov. 24 following several days* bombard ment; rushing against the trenches guarding the approach to the south east fort of the Keekwan mountain group, the Japanese artillery In the meanwhile throwing all the metal possible against the Rthlung mountain and Antzii mountain forts. The possession of the trenches was stubbornly contested. After five hours fighting and several repulses the Japanese drove out the Russians and destroyed thqjr trenches and succeed ed In entrenching themselves behind sand bags, which the infantry carried. At 11 in the evening the Russians made a sortie,, which the Japanese say they repulsed after two hours’ fight ing. Another Line Xpt. Another line of trenches more for midable than the ones destroyed lies between the Japanese and the forts. The Japanese at Port Dalny believe the attack became general, ns men re turning from the front while not hav ing seen the fighting, reported that heavy small*arm and machine gun fire was almost constant at various parts of the line till Nov. 27, when the last advices arrived at Port Dalny. Teddy’s Children Did Not Chase the Thanksgiving Turkey. WASHINGTON. Nov. 29.—Wm. Loeb, Jr., as secretary to the presi dent. today issued an official signed tement denying that President Roosevelt's children had cruelly treat ed the Thanksgiving turkey sent to the president by Mr. Vose of Rhode Island. In the statement Mr. Loeb says: The president’s attention has just been called to a news Item which con tains an account of supposed mal treatment by his children of the Thanksgiving turkey which Mr. Vose kindly sent to the White House In ac cordance with his annual custom. The article states that the children releas ed the turkey and chased it all over the White House grounds, plucking at and teasing it and yelling and laughing until , the bird was well nigh exhausted, while the president looked on and laughed. As a matter of fact the turkey was dressed when Mr. Vose sent It and was used for Thanksgiving dinner. There was a bronze live turkey sent from Milwaukee. This turkey was never taken out of Its box. but was shipped to Oyster Bay be cause of its beauty, and is living peaceably with the rest of the in habitants of the barn yard. No such incident as that recounted has ever taken place since the president has been in the White House, and nothing in the remotest degree resembling It has ever taken place.” Secretary Loeb, after the statement had been issued, said: "No attention would have been paid to this attack if it had been upon the president personally, but as it has been extended to members of his family he feels that he ought to reply to it.” To Assist in Siege.
