The Battle Before Kars-The Russians
ReuuIsed

AC 1satHc neIOfe AArs-Ehe Russians
RepuIsed.
| LONDON, Oct. 5.-Particulars of the battle
| before Kars make it evident that the Russians
assaulted the Turkish positions along the whole
line and were lepulsed with heavy loss
line success gained Tuesday in the capture of
Great Yagni hill did not compensate for the
failure at other points, and the position carried
since has been abandoned. The Russians, re-
Intorced both by new troops and those lately
employed against the Caucasian insurgents
commenced battle at daybreak, Tuesday, by
assault,on Great Yagui, which is the extreme
outwork of Mukhtar Pasha's Notifications,
about II miles east from Kars. Here the
Turks seem to have been taken by surprise.
The Turkish battalion defending was cut to
pieces or captured after two hours fighting,
which gave the Turks time to prepare for TIE
next assault. Up to this5 point all accounts
agree, but regarding subsequent events they are
very conflicting. Turkish official despatch
says great battle eDsued, lasting 10 hours.
Repeated Russian attacks were repulsed with
heavy loss.
The Russian bulletin from the Grand Duke
Michaers headquarters at Karajal, dated the
4th, says after the capture of Great Yagni n
was found that Little Yagni was so strongly
fortified that an attempt to assault it was cor
sidered premature. After thirteen battalions
sent from the Turks to reinforce Mukhtar
Pasha, had been repulsed, our troops fortified
themselves in the positions they occupied. Oar
loss Tuesday was 1869 killed and wounded and
the enemy's loss not less. We captured 200
men. The Russians also attacked the centre AFT
Kizilitepe, but were repulsed. Simultaneously
a Russian force, moving from the direction of
Ami, endeavored to turn the Turkish right and
get between Mukhtar Pasba and Kars.
OF this affair the Turkish bulletin saws
After five hours fighting the Russian force. six
battalions of infantry and two regiments If
cavalry, were driven back and pursued TO tho
banks of the Arpachai.
The Russian bulletin says: Judgement was
effected on the Turkish right flank, and the
Turkish attack on the next day "Wednesday
was brilliantly repulsed and driven back az a.
as the outer line of their camp. The Russiao
loss here was 800 killed and wounded.
The Turkish bulletin concludes: 1--WE have
gained a brilliant victory and inflicted loss of
over 5000 on the enemy"
The Russian bulletin concludes: sTo dav

the positions occupied by them on Tuesday. IN

Anxious 10 Resume Work, but Don't
Like to Give in.
SCRANTON, Pa, Oct. 5.-Presidents Hoyt and
Dickson of the Pennsylvania and Delaware &
Hudson Coal companies arrived from New
York last night, and this morning each had a
separate conference with the committee of their
workmeD. similar meeting was also held
between General Coal Agent Storrs and COM
mittee OF the Delaware & Lackawanna miners
The result OF the respective interviews is a
recession of the strikers from their former de-
mand OF % per cent advance in wages and
plea on their part simply for some concession
from the companies to take the edge off defeat.
to reconcile the men to the inevitable and GET
them to work. No definite terms are NAMED
by the men and no exactions imposed. The
representatives of the corporations maintained
hrmly their original positions, which requires
the strikers to resume work at the prices upon
which they went out before any negotiations
can be had. The men cannot endure the con-
tlnuance OF this siege of starvation more than
month longer. 1t is probable that work in
the mines will be resumed here within fort
night.

is called for tomorrow to act upon the answer

New YORK, Oct. 5-The creditors of Frank
Leslie, the publisher whose failure was recently
announced. had a meeting to-day to hear the
report OF the Committee appointed to devise
plan OF settlement. The report advised the
creditors to consolidate their interests and en-
trust the entire business of Leslie to board of
management consisting of five principal credit
ors. 1t also st ated that after a careful examin.
alton the books of Leslie were found in great
confusion. No balance sheet has been made
since 1873, and the books have not been written
up since March last. The business was consid

largely upon the resources of the establishment.
the amount being about $4,000 per annum'
which in their judgment was in excess of the
profits. The business has also been conducted
IN very extravagant manner. The committee
thought that in three years the Indebtedness
could be paid off. The plan proposed is that
Leslie should have the supervision of the bust
ness, and be allowed 20 per cent of the profits
as salary, 80 per cent TO be divided pro rata
quarterly among the creditors. About loo
creditors were represented and the report of the
committee was adopted unanimously. The
