The plant and tools are of recent patterns for dealing quickly and cheaply with work and a large stock of material is always at hand, (plates and angies all being tasted by "Lloyds' surveyors)'

the indictment of Gen. Stonisal contains, imong others, the following points: "Gen. Stoessel disregarded the orders of the Com mander-in-Chief of the Manchurian army ti hand over the command of Port Arthur to Gan. Smirnoff and to leave the army, but remained instead in the fortrega. He violated the order of the Imperial Viceroy, interfered with Gen. Smirnoff's functions, and issued counter orders regarding they defensive works in the second

"In his report of the action at Kinchap, ba stated that he himself bad led the troops' most nergetically, whereas he 'remained in Port Arthur, and took no part in the fight. He re- ported Gen.
