TIME ALONE WILL TELL.
Russians in the Dark as to the In
tentions of oyama.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 5.--Q2:S5 D. M
The military critics at st. Petersburg
share in the general uncertainty as TO
how to size up the situation at the
front if Field Marshal Oyama makes
his anticipated advance. They seem
to agree that a strong screening move
ment is in progress Immediately east
of Lao Yang, that probably a front
will be made from the west and that
the tactics of the Japanese at Lao
Yang viii be repeated and that General
&urOki will try wide flanking move
ment from the east. Some of the crit
les point out that the conditions at
Port Arthur may force a change of
Oyama's plan of campaign. The con.
tinued failure of the attacks or the
fortress and the enormous losses sus-
tanned by the besiegers, they think,
may compel Oyama to dispatch some
veteran troops from the Manchurian
army to General NOdzu's support, as
the reinforcements arriving at Port Ar
thur are mostly reserve men.
Unstinted praise is bestowed on Lieu
tenant General Stoessel for the heroic
defense made by the garrison which
naturally is increasing the hope that
the fortress may hold out. In the
meantime General kuropatkin is re-
ceiVing achievements especially artil-
lery. Nevertheless, all the experts ex-
press great doubt whether Kuropatkin
contemplates more than a passive re
sistance at Mukden, where they say
the typographical conditions are I'M
favorable for defense. 1t is considered
significant that the CRITICS generally
agree that Tie pass is a better position
both for defense and offense, being pro-
tected by the Lao river on the west
and offering strong positions on the
Kama range on the east. The general
conclusion is that the japanese forces
Will show their hands in a very short
time Evidence is accommodating that
Japanese officers are at the head of the
bands Of Chinese bandits operating on
Kuropatkin's right flank and the con-
tinued reports of agitation among the
Chinese. spread by the anti-foreign
propaganda, are increasing the feeling
of anxiety. These factors will soon
have to be severely reckoned with by
Russia
