GENERAL ENGAGEMENT NOW

st. Petersburg, Aug. 30.-The opera.
lions around Liaoyang have under.

the delay in the concentration of Gen

of the terrible condition of the roads
the Japanese seized the opportunity to
attack the slow moving corps and Sc

in which the Russians lost another
thousand men, and they now probably
will have to accept a general engage

scribes the latest phase of the hos
tilities in a long dispatch to the en-
peror from point on the railroad a
few miles south of Liaoyang, where
practically the whole army was as
semblel and awaiting battle. A tele-
gram, which was filed early in the
morning, says:
The Japanese began at dawn Aug.

the First and Fourth corps. The First,
stationed at Ansnanshan, half way be-
tween Haicheng and Liaoyang, expert

General Oku tried to flank this corps
from the east. In the meanwhile Gen

twenty-tour miles southeast of Lao

by their artillery and commissariat,
fought series of rearguard actions in
order to cover the retreat of their i'm
pediments to Liaoyang, in which they
were successful. The First corps,
which figured at the battle of the Yalu
and in the fighting at Molten pass,
again sustained the brunt of the fight

losses, including General Routkovsky
and Colonel Won Raaben.

WITH FANATICAL BRAVERY
JAPANESE REPEATEDLY ASSAULT
RUSSIAN POSITION ON THE
EXTREME LEFT.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 30.-General
Kuropatkin has been drawing in all
his forces from his eastern and south
ern fronts toward Liaoyang. Anping,
Tsegow, Liandiansian and Anshan-
shan, constituting the main positions
of the outer defense line Of Liaoyang,
have been abandoned. The heaviest
fighting occurred on the extreme left,
where the Japanese advanced to the
assault again and again with bayonets.
The positions at Tsegow and Anping
were held by the Tenth European
corps. The attacks were delivered
with fanatical bravery The Russians
lost a large proportion of officers, ten
guns and from 1,500 to 1000 men, but
the Russians had been generally sue
cessful in beating off the assaults all
along the long line and the Russians
declare that the order to retire came
as a surprise just when they were ex-
pecting orders for general advance.
This is considered to be proof that
General Kuropatkin, finding his main
positions menaced on the flank and
anticipating difficulties in withdrawing
owing to the condition of the roads,

schelmann's position at Anping and to
be moving toward Mukden.
The strength of the enveloping JAP
anese armies may be judged from the
fact that General Oku alone, who is
coming up from the south, is officially
reported to have $4,000 men. Whether
General Kuropatkin intends to accept
battle at LiaOyang may not be known
positively for several days, but the
belief several times indicated in these
dispatches prevails here that he will
withdraw northward, having found
that he Is not strong enough to cope
with the Japanese and realizing that
Liaoyang is made no longer tenable
on account of the Japanese threats at
his west rear. His retirement un-
doubtedly will cause keen public dis
appointment, as it was generally be-
lieved that he at last had sufficient re-
Inducements to accept decisive en-
gagement and by the military critics
his retreat is interpreted to mean q
great prolongation of the war.
The Toxic report that General Ku-
roki had succeeded in cutting the rail-
road south Of Mukden is not confirmed
by the telegraph department, where it
is said that no reports have been re-
ceived Of an interruption of commune.
cations. OF course it is realized here
that If the railroad north Of Liaoyang
is cut the position of the Russian army
would be rendered serious, if not des-
) perate, as 1t probably would compel
General Kuropatkin to accept an en-.
gagement against his will. eara s&~~

Japan's loss of one OF her best bat
tleships and n cruiser indicates that
the Russians still have at Port Arthur
what Captain Mahan terms "a fleet IN
being. japanese reports state that
the Hatsuse was lost by encountering
a Russian mine. but the proximity of
the Russian torpedo-fleet at the time
causes good reason to believe that the
blow was dealt by a well-aimed torpe
do. This incident proves that although
Japan is for the time being mistress Of
the sea in the Orient, her position is
not so firmly established that she can
afford TO be Indifferent to the sadly
broken Russian feet at Port Arthur.
Russia's recuperatiye power is what
the few friends have based their belief
of eventual success upon, and 1t would
seem that the period OF recovery from
the first blow has begun.

Hilo Business Men
Discuss Road Problem

Hilo, May 20.-At the special meet.
Ing of the Board OF Trade of Hilo, held
at Fireman's Hall last Friday evening,
for the purpose of making sundry add.
tons to the bylaws, Mr.. Richards
drew attention to the fact that the
Territorial Government could not &C

Puueo. Reeds Island and Villa Franco,
rs said roads had not been constructed
In accordance to law, the regulations
providing that roadways shall be built
not less than fifty feet wide. The
roads mentioned are only forty feet in
width, and property owners would be
compelled to grant the additional ten
feet right Of way before the Govern.
ment would assume control.
Mr.. Richards thought that this would
meet with considerable opposition
from the property holders and that
some steps should be taken with a
view to having this law repealed at
the next session of the Legislature. Mr.
Brughelli. and others, argued that a
50-foot road was none to wide, and be.
lieved that property holders would
gladly cede the necessary right Of way,
as such action would tend to increase
the value of their holdings.
No definite action was taken In the
premises. Mr.. Brughelli advocated the
building OF road from Piihonua ia

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

Speaking of the increasing strength
OF the Democratic party in Hawaii,
Governor Carter is quoted as saying
that II Is better to have two good tick
cts in the field than one very good and
one very poor Mr. Carter could not
better express the necessities of the
political situation in these islands.
Every citizen OF Hawaii is interested
In the politics of the Territory being
conducted on American party, not race
lines. The Home Rule party Is not
without good men, but in its final So
luton the organization and the spirit Of
much OF its work Is relic of old times
the sooner forgotten the better. This
Is primarily the reason why the young
er and progressive members are leay-
ing the Home Rule ranks. Any organ
ization in an American community that
stands still. becomes largely factional
for racial or any other reason, offers
nothing for the citizen, young or old,
who would make the most OF himself
and accomplish the greatest benefit for
his native land.
There are factionalists in the Repub-
lican party who would make the organ
ization an exclusively white mans
party. They cannot succeed because
sensible leaders know that the day such
proposition is accomplished, the Re-
publican party will be wrecked for all
time. Basing party action on narrow
personal or racial considerations Is so
utterly foreign to the sentiment OF
American institutions that 1t cannot
succeed. True American sentiment uni
iies' men on principles rather than
dangerous and petty prejudices. An
exclusively Hawaiian party must be as
disastrous to the welfare OF all classes
as an exclusively religious party whose
binding force is secured by carrying
the dogmas Of creed into politics.
Our country has furnished many ex-
amples of these methods and in every
instance they have met with ignomin-
ious failure.
II the Home Rule party was neces-
sity as sort of transition medium, the
period of its usefulness is long past
due. Governor Carter has demonstrate
ed what an American administration
should be and the broader policies
which he has inaugurated cannot be
without a strong educational effect up
on the thoughtful voters of the Islands
The Democratic policy has faults OF
course. but II is an American party
