GLOOM DIsPELLED.
Russians Recover From the Shock Of
the News From YaIu River.

Russians Recover From the Shock Of
the News From Yalu River.
ST. Petersburg. May (12:40 p. MI
The gloom which prevailed here yes
terday was almost completely dispeued
this morning when the people read the
story Of the glorious fight made by
General Hassahtch's handful of rough
regiments against the flower of the
mikadO's legiOns at the Yalu and of the
utter defeat of Vice Admiral Togo's
new attempt to seal the entrance 10
Port Arthur
It is now plain that not more than
5000 Russians were actually engaged
iu the fight at the TslU against the
Japanese army of q total strength of
between 10000 and 10000. The losses
on both sides, which are expected 10
reach 1000 and possibly 200 i'm the
Russian force and twice that number
for the Japanese, make il one of the
bloodiest fights i'm history At the
river crossing the Japanese dead lie
piled up literally in heaps and General
KuTOkis success was purchased at
such a heavy cost that the Russians
are disposed to regard it as rather a
defeat than a victory for him.
General Kuropatkin's dispatch shows
that The Russians fought with such
bulldog tenaCity and bravery against
the overwhelming superiority of the
enemy that the latter's nominal vie
tory was eciipsed by the powers Of the
cars soldiers

/ restore General Zassalitch to public
favor Those who were disposed TO
criticise him, even at the headquarters
of the general staff, where it is con-
sidered that he made a tactical blunder
now say that he redeemed himself by
his galIantry in action and the damage
lac inflicted upon the enemy. About
bulletin boards the people are especial
/ ly impressed with the desperate
bayonet charge of the Eleventh resi-
ment. The mental picture Of the regt-
meut advancing against the enemy
with bands and bugles blaring and the
priest with cross alOft at the head, ap-
peaIed TO the dramatic sense of the
Russian population as nothing else
could The survivors Of this heroic
regiment which cut it's way out declare
that the position was surrounded Dy
more than a thousand dead Japanese.

Attack at Three Points.
The general staff explains that the
Russian batteries at Kiu Lien Cheng
and Potiensky succeeded in withdraw
ing 10 a second position, whence they
poured a murderous fire on the Japaa-
csc who were occupying the heights at
the Russians left. The japanese at
tackled at three pOints-frOntal at Kill

and on the other flank at Liam Tan
Cow or Liam Tun Cow, northeast and
southeast, respectively, of Kiu Lien
Cheng. The losses We're very. severe
on the TANKS which protect the retreat
of the main body from Fiu Lien Cheng.
The Eleventh regiment made a heroic
stand at Liam Tan Cow, the Russian
second position along the heights,
whence it was impossible to remove the
guns on account of the nature of the
ground and the heavy mud.
Both Armies Resting,
General Zassalitch's force is resting
a Feng Wang Cheng. No renewal Of
the attack has been made, 1t is be-
ieved that General EurOki is also
resting on the river.
There is a strong Russian position
back of Feng Wang Cheug on a line
parallel with AIUkden and Lao Yang,
where troops are concentrating and it
is considered likely that a really de-
cisive engagement may be fought
there. To force the pass beyond Feng
Wang Cheng directly is considered
practically impossible.
General Zassalitch had forty guns
altogether. and sixteen or these left
