Tokio Jan. 4. —The Japanese have capture c twenty-rive thou-
sand prisoners at Port Arthur. The total number of inhabitants is
thirty-five thousand of which twenty are sick.
TRANSFER OF MATERIAL BEGUN.
Tokio. Jan. 4 (nooni. —General Nogi reports to the army de-
partment on January 3. that the commissioner- of both Japanese
and Russian armies have concluded their conference and that from
the morning of January 4 actual transfer of war material at Port
Arthur as property of the Japanese governrtient commenced.
Chef00 Jan. 4 evening).—The protecteel cruiser Akitsushama
four torpedo boat destroyers and two torpedo boats constitute to-
day’s Japanese guard off this port. Th< destroyers which were
guarding the Russian flotilla last night went out at the expiration
of twenty-four hours returning immediately with others. They
have been in and out of the harbor intermittently ever since. To-
night rfll Russian destroyers withdrew to the south side of the har-
bor. where they probably will remain until their disarmament is
complete.
Japanese Consul Mizono inspected the Russian vessels during
the day and pronounced the progress made in their disarmament
ratisfactory. It* is said that the booty which fell into the hands of
the Japanese at Port Arthur only amounted to eighty thousand
tons of coal and two months' rations of rice.
Of 270 officers of the Russian navy at Port Arthur at the begin-
ning of the war have been killed or wounded many of them
while doing duty in the forts. *
TWO RUSSIAN NAVAL OFFICERS
The Japanese Prize Court at Sasebo Is Nov. Considering What
Action to Take in the Matter.
* Tokio. Jan. 4. —Commander Pelim and a lieutenant of the Rus-
sian torpedo boat destroyer Rastorphny cammed on board the
British steamer Nigretia and taken on board of her to Sasebo have
confessed their identity before the naval court there. Heretofore
they posed as German supercargoes but when confronted with the
results of the Japanese investigations at Shanghai concealment was
impossible. They have been declared-prisoners cf war.
No contraband has as yet been discovered on board the Nigretia.
Her cargo consists of kerosene and the prize court is still undecided
upon whsf action to take in her case. It is probable that if the ship
is condemned it will be solely owing to connivance in the escape of
Russian officers.
