ST. PETITRSBURG: A correspond-
e-.t of the Associated Pre*? who Las
;u«t y'.f.r:ed Port Arthur telegraphed
fa-om Mukden as follows:
**Despite the various bombardments
. at Port Arthur the external aspect of
the city remains unchanged, although
the enemy fired an enormous number
of projectiles. The battleships and
cruisers bear marks of fighting. The
black clouds of smoke from their
stacks overhang the town. The cruis-
er Paladda stands almost repaired in
the dry dock.
"Near the entrance of the harbor
can be seen the charred wrecks of tbe
Japanese fire ship*. Aboard one of
tbe farthest out was found the body
of a Japanese officer who had shot
himself. Beside him lay a chart show-
ing the course of the fireships and the
spot where they sank.
"Six hours of firing by tho heaviest
guns during the la«t bombardment did
not demolish a single building, but
mat a few lives. The husband and
child of Barooesg Frank, who was de-
eapitated by fragments of shell flying
in through a window, were unharmed.
"The enemy in endeavoring to stand
as far as possible outride the range
of the Russian batteries rendered
their own fire ineffective. The people
are becoming uped to bombardments,
and the Japanese squadron cruising
in the offing causes little alarm. Oc-
cupations are resuming their wonted
course, and many stores have re-
opened.
"Not a few women heroically, refuse
to leave Port Arthur, regardless of
the tragic death of Baroness Frank.
During the height of the cannonading
one woman with dressings for wounds
wandered the streets, ready to afford
aid to the wounded.
"A branch of the Ruso-Chinese bank
la doing business and many wives of
offleers and soldiers are returning as
sisters of mercy. The land defenses
are strengthened every day, and the
troops are eager to fight. Tho gaiety
and good spirits of the troops is sur-
prising.
"During the engagement l etwc«>n
the Russian and the Japanese torpedo ,
boat destroyers the boats eaine into
close quarters. b in? within n few
fathoms length of ouch other. A tor-
pedo from the Russian destroyer Vlas-
tlnl tore off the M>arn of one of the i
enemy's destroyers, her eaptain stand
lug on the bridge us she sank amid
cries.
"The .iHpanesp nquadron is now
reckoned to nujhist of th" battleship,
Shikishima, Hatsusc, Yashima, Mika
«a. Asahi and Fuji.
"Port Arthur is exceedingly gloomy
at night all lights being out. Pickets i
patrol the htreets, stopping all pedes- ;
trains.
"Three Cblnere bandits a few days
ago sttaeked a house in the mnter
of town The ma*at**r of th br u«
killed t*o of the bandits, and a third ;
wan killed by officers
' The understanding at Port Arthur
la that the .?apiue«e are proponing to j
effect a landing west of tho Liao riv-
er."
Secretary of the Okfahoma Board la
toes the Regulations
GUTHRIE: After returning from
Fort Worth, where he attended tbe
Joint session of the Oklahoma and
Texas cattle sanitary commissions.
Secretary Tom Morris of the Oklaho-
ma board Issued the following rules
and regulations promulgated by the
Oklahoma live stock sanitary commis-
sion, governing the inspection of ani
, mals for slaughter and for tbe infor-
mation snd direction of deputy in*
spectors:
1. No person who Is engaged in
tbe butcher business or in any way
Interested in the sale of meat is elig-
ible to serve as Inspector of animals
for slaughter.
2. Any animal the flesh of which is
to be offered for sale as food must be
inspected before slaughter. The law-
requires a personal inspection. A
description of the animal by the per-
son slaughtering the same, or the
statement of disinterested parties or
the examination of the hide or carcass
after slaughter will not be sufficient.
3. Permission may be given to
slaughter such animals if same are
found, on inspection, to be In a
healthy condition. Animals should be
condemned for the following reasons:
Hog cholera, swine plague, charbon
or anthrax, malignant epizootic
catarrh, mange or scabies in advanced
stages of actimomycosis or lump-jaw,
tuberculosis, advanced stages of preg-
nancy. or recent parturition, imma-
turity, or too young to produce whole-
some meat, or any disease or injury
causing elevation of temperature af-
fecting the system to a degree which
would make the flesh unfit for human
food.
I It is unlawful for any one to
offer for sale to tbe public unless the
same has been inspected before
slaughter. This applies to farmers as
well as regular butchers.
5. Inspectors shall keep a record
of all animals slaughtered, with full,
descriptions of the same as to color,
marks, brands, etc.. and send report of
same to the secretary of the commis-
sion at the end of every week, being
eareful to report all animals rejected
and the cause thereof. A failure to
make these reports at least once a
month will be sufficient cause for dis
missal. Blank certificates of inspec-
tion can be obtained from your local
printer or furnished by this office at
5< c per hundred, which Is about the
cost of printing and iiostage.
Inspectors may charge 25c per
head for cattle and 10c per head for
hogs, sheep and goats, the attorney
general having ruled that the law con
templates ami requires an inspection
of hogs, sheep and goats, as well as
horned cattle.
7. W here an inspector Is required
i to go a distance or over two miles to
inspect animals for slaughter, ho may
charge mi lea go at the rate of 10c per
mile one way for all distances traveled
over the said two miles, and shall have
the right to refuse to make inspection
unless mileage is paid as above set
forth.

tlon of animals for slaughter may bo
