Headquarters of the Third Japanese
Army at Port Arthur, Jan. 14, via Tffin
Tsien, Jan. 17.—The victorious Japan-
ese army Sunday formally entered Port
Arthur. Gen. Nogl with his staff enter-
ed first the old town and took his
stand in the public square of the new
town. The army was represented by
ono regiment of each brigade. The
procession, which was five miles long,
was three hours passing the saluting
base, after which the troops passed out
of the city through the town. The cor-
respondents then visited the captured
city for the first time. The old town
buildings were badly smashed by shells
but in the new town the damage was
slight. All the shipping in the harbor
was badly damaged by shell fire, the
warships being practically useless ow-
ing to the injuries they had sustained
by shells.
Proposals for the surrender of Port
Arthur were first made December 29
at a council of war. Gen. Stoessel was
In favor of surrender, but some of his
general officers were bitterly opposed
to it. The remimental officers and
the troops were not consulted.
The first they heard of the surren-
der was on January 1, after Gen. Stoes-
sel had communicated with the Japan-
ese. The scenes following the sur-
render were dlsgracful. Drunken sold-
iers filled the streets and refused to
obey their- officers. Many of them de-

Austin, Tex., Jan. 17.—Neither house
of the Legislature was in session long
yesterday, primarily for the reason
that they had little to do in session and
because the Senate had no quorum un-
til afternoon.
The committee work was started,
but not much progress was made, ex-
cept in the way of arranging prelimin-
aries. The House will do most of its
committee work in the forenoons and .
has a regular schedule laid out for the
meetings.
It is not thought, however, that any
great headway will be made until next
week.
Today a goodly portion of the day
will be taken up with the ceremony „
of inaugurating the Governor and much
of the time ot. the legislature will be
taken up in doing thQ liandsome to
their visiting constituents.
Interests affected by the revenue and
banking measures will ask the com-
mittees having the various bills in
charge to set dates for public hearing
upon the same. It is thought that these
hearings will begin next week and
that they will attract many people to
the capitol.
Adiong the several bills introduced
in the Senate one of importance pro-
vides that mortgages, deeds of trust,
etc., must be filed forthwith ,or be
void to all parties except the mort-
gagee or mortgagor. Another prohibit-
stroyed guns upon the positions they ing divorced persons from marrying
had defended and came into the city within five years.
In the house Mr. Cottrell has in-
loudly protested that the fortress had troduced his divorce bill. It requires
the district judge to state in his de-
cree the date upon which the divorce
was granted, and the name of the
party found in fault, and it prohibits
such person from marrying within
