General SkObelOffss Account of the
Late Enga Russians
Victorious After Heavy LOss-Rus-
SIAN Trenches Full of Dead Tur-
cOmanss

ST. PETERSBURG, January 18.-General
nouncing that on the 4th, at o'clock in
the evening, $4,000 Tekke Turcomans made
a sudden sortie from Geo k-Tepe and ss-
saulted the Russian trenches, which were
manned by nineteen companies Of Infantry
and one hundred Cossacks acting as in
fantry, with three siege guns and twenty
one lighter guns. In spite OF the he
rolc defense by these troops the Turco-
mans carried the Russian outworks
and also part OF the second
parallel, capturing four mounted guns and
three siege guns. The Russians then open
ed an artillery fire, and the reserve simulta-
neouslV attacked the enemy, who were dis
lodged from all the points they had cap
tured. All the artillery was retaken with
the exception of one mounted gun, which
had been carried off during the early part
of the engagement. The Russian loss was
heavy. One company of the Apshe-
rom Regiment alone had thirty
two men killed, including the
Major and Captain, and ten
wounded and one officer taken prisoner.
The Turcoman loss was much greater.
Their dead filled the Russian trenches.
simultaneously with this attack consider
able body of Turcoman cavalry made a
sortie on the Russian cavalry, which was
successfully repulsed. After the Turcomans
had been repulsed, orders were given for
laying a third parallel. As soon as the
Turcomans saw the work commenced they
renewed the attack with their entire
strength upon the whole Russian front, but
were compelled to retire into the fortress
by the artillery, at close range, from the
Russian second parallel. The laying of the
third parallel was completed on the 10Th
inst, and on the same day the
fortress and strongly fortified out
works were bombarded. At three
o'clock in the afternoon the Russian column
made an assault, and after severe struggle
captured the outworks. The bombardment
by siege artillery was still proceeding on the
11th instant. The total OF the Russian losses
In the actions of the 9th and 10th was 8 Off
GERS and SO men killed, and officers and 109
men and members Of the medical staff
wounded. The behavior of the troops was
admirable

A PARTY OF FIVE Who BECAME IN
SANE Some four years ago negro
man died at Lsuderdale station, as was
supposed, of hydrophobia. The day of
his death he was araving maniac. 1t was
thought best TO confne him. but there
was trouble in getting any one to under
take the dangerous and difficult task. At
last DR.. Kennedy, DIR. Webb and B. T.
Rush volunteered to undertake it. The
mans wife assisted them, and with great
difficulty they succeeded in fastening
handouts upon his wrists. He died that
evening. His wife soon went raving
mad and died. Within the last six
months the three white men engaged in
the struggle with the negro to handcuf
him have gone crazy; two of them have
been sent TO the lunatic asylum and the
third on his way there Meridian Mss
