JAPANESE LINE is BROKEN
ATTACKED BY RUSSIANS AND
RIGHT FLANK TURNED.
Driven from Town of Bentsiaputze-
Kuropatkin Announces For
ward Movement.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 10.-Gen. Kuro-
patkin's order Of the day announcing
! his determination to take the offensive
is supplemented by the news that an
offensive movement has already been be-
gun and that the Japanese line has been
broken at Bentsiaputze. The Japanese
occupied a front of about 81 miles,
| stretching from Bentsiaputze on the
east through Yentai and across the rail-
way to the banks of the Hun river on
the west. The Russian force had been
moving south in close touch with the
Japanese advance since October 4. The
japanese outposts were driven back in a
series of skirmishes, and on October 6
! the Russians reoccupied the station of
| Shakhe, Is miles south of Mukden, the
railway battalion restoring the bridge
across the Shakhe river the next day in
order to facilitate the advance. Mean
while Gen. Mistchenko's Cossacks
pushed southwestward as far as the Yen
tai mines, defeating the Japanese in
series of warm skirmishes.
Heavy Blow to Jap Right.
The most important action, however,
occurred on the Japanese right at Bent
siaputze Here the Japanese held a
strong and important position, but it
seems they made the inexplicable omis-
sion to fortify a commanding hill which
was the key to the whole situation. A
portion of Gen. KurOpatkin's force made
a strong attack on Bentsiaputze and,
taking a leaf out of the Japanese book,
occupied the hill from the east and
| flanked the Japanese out of the town,
causing a serious loss in rear guard
fight The Russian casualties are re-
ported to have been irconsiderable.
While it is understood that Mukden is
not heavily fortified, Gen. Kuropatkin
has powerful force behind him, strong
ly posted at Tie pass; and If, as he as
serts, the Russians are now powerful
enough to assume the offensive, it is pos
sible his advance movement will force
the Japanese thanking column to with
draw in order to protect their own base.
Kuropatkin Orders Advance.
st. Petersburg, Oct 10.-Gen. Kuro-
patkin has issued a stirring address to
his army in which he asserts that the
Russians have force numerically SUI
| periOr to that of the Japanese, declares
that the time has come for forward

In his address Gen. Kuropatkin says
there will be no more retreats, that the

last to defeat the combined armies un-
der Oyama and that it is going forward
to victory and ultimately to the relief
of Port Arthur
