RUSSIANS MUST RETREAT.
Their Main Army Nearly Surrounded BY
Large Force OF Japanese.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 4.-The army
organ makes no effort to foreshadow
events of the immediate future in the
far east and gives no clue to General
kuropatkin's intentions, but it de.
clares that events of the last ten days
demonstrate conclusvely that the
Japanese objective point since the be.
ginning of the war has been to strike
the main army OF the Russians and
not, as popularly supposed, to take
Port Arthur.
General Kuroki, with 100000 men,
is now behind the Russian forces:
General O!Su, with an army of 50, 1000
men, is on their front, while tlan6ing
them on the left is General Noduz.
with his division of $4,000 men. If
General Kuropatkin is defeated in this
battle, he must either move westw ard
or surrender.
According to a message received
from Harbin, General kuropatkin has
ordered the removal from that place
OF all useless civilians in order to pro.
vide the greatest possible accommod a..
tion for the winter quarters of the
Russian army.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 3.-The first
Russian report Of the storming opera.
tions at Port Arthur has just been re-
cclved from the consul of Russia at
Che Foo, dated today. 1t says a gen.
eral attack began Saturday with the
japanese in immense force. There
were two days of bonn bardment of
unprecedented tierceness. The Japa-
nese, at the time of sending this dis.
patch, had everywhere been repulsed
with great loss. The japanese casu.
alties probably reached 10000, but the
Russian losses were insignificant.
The consul further reports that the
Russians have an abundance OF am
munition. The main force of the army
defending Port Arthur is now inside
the numerous permanent forts, which
constitute the fortress. They have g.
900 guns sweeping the plain over
which the japanese must cross. An
assault is expected August Is. There
was a general confidence prevailing
that the fortress is invulnerable, al
though the courage of the apanese is
described as reckless to an extreme.

ayers that they have no difficulty in
securing workmen, they are said to be
making very strong efforts to induce
their former employees to return to
work. The latest move in that line is
distributing cards among the wives Of
strikers urging them to induce their
husbands to return to the packing
plants and offering increased pay.
In statement given out tonight by
the packers, the report that negotia-
tions are in progress to bring about
another conference between the pack
ers and the labor leaders is declared
to be unfounded. According to this
statement the progress making at the
plants is satisfactory to all the pack
ers: more men are employed daily; all
contracts and current orders are filled
and there is a normal supply of beef,
mutton and provisions at all plants
in the United States, while sales are
made at lower prices than before the
strike began. In a table accompany
ing the statement, it is shown that the
total number of men at work tonight
at all points is more than 29,000
With this number of men at work,

Chicago Labor Organizations Will Con-
tribute to Support of Idle Men.

CHICAGO, Aug. ALL the labor
unions in Chicago have indorsed the
stock yards strike. After listening to
the strikers side of the controversy,
which was presented to them by
Michael Donnelly, president of the
striking Butchers union, the Chicago
Federation OF Labor, which is com.
posed Of every labor organization in
Chicago, and has membership of
nearly 100000, adopted resolutions
tonight pledging the moral and fnan-
cial support Of the federated body as
long as the strike continues. Each
member of the central body will be
assessed small sum per week and
the whole amount will be turned over
to the striking unions to help in the
support Of the strikers and their fam
lilies during the struggle with the pack
ers. While the officials of the FEEDER
alton of Labor were unable tonight to
give an exact estimate of the amount
OF money they would secure from this
source, it was stated that the total
sum would be we'll up in the thous-
ands each week.
After fight which has lasted for
nearly four weeks, settlement of the
stocky ards strike seems tonight to be
as remote as at any time since the
struggle for supremacy begun. Neith-
e: side to the conflict during all this
time has shown any signs of weaken
ing. The packers. while asserting
that they will soon have their affairs
in normal condition, admit that so far
they have been able to get but 500 of
their employees back, and that the ma
jority of their men are unskilled
workers. With these men the packers
have succeeded in accomplishing a
great deal of work, but according to
the strikers, every animal that has
been slaughtered since the strike was
at financial loss to the packers, as
in majority Of cases the poor work
OF unskilled men has made it impos.
sible for them to work the by-products
in these departments, and the business,
which, under normal conditions, is a
clear profit to the packers, has been
allowed to 90 to waste

used by the packing company as an
adjunct in paying employees who have

All day long hundreds of depositors
stood in line to withdraw their small
deposits. When closing time came
this afternoon, 1000 persons were
waiting for their money. The bank
determined to meet the emergency,
