London. Sept. enlarged with
bayonets and showered with a hail OF
shrapnel from the enemy's death-deal-
ing artillery. Gen. Kouropatkin, III
command OF the Russian forces at
Liaoyang, was forced to evacuate the
town and beat hasty retreat TO the
north of the Taitse river, holly pur-
sued by the relentless Japanese. The
Japanese casualties since Aug. 20 are
officially estimated at Toxic to be lO,-
900, while an unofficial estimate OF
the Russian losses places the amount
az almost 10000.
This is the story received here OF
the conflict between the two big
armies at Liaoyang. The Japanese
are now in supreme control OF Lao
yang, according to the latest informa-
ton, and will push ahead to prevent
Kouropatkin and his army from reach
in Mukden. for which point he is be-
lieved to be headed.
Dispatches from st. Petersburg,
while admitting the overwhelming de-
feat of the Russians, assert that kou
ropatkin has retreated north or the
river, where he expects TO be able tc
make a more formidable stand against
the Japanese. The move, however Il
regarded here in different light, in
asmuch as Kouropatkin has repeated
ly stated that he would make iina
stand against the enemy at Liaoyang
and had constructed what was gen

CHILDREN TURN SWITCH
TO SEE CARS BREAK UP
Little Tots Cause Wreck on the
Northwestern Road at Chicago
and Warrants Are Issued.

Chicago dispatch: "Just to see the
cars break up" Freddie Mueller. 10
years old. 500 George street, and
Helen Schultz, IL years old. bis
George street, are accused OF having
turned a switch on the Chicago a.
Northwestern railway and wrecking q
freight train. William Jeffreys, detec-
tive for the company, procured war
rants for the arrest of the children on
a charge of malicious mischief.
With other juveniles in their neigh
borhood, the two children were playing
on the railroad track. Somebody
turned switch and freight train ran
into 1t. Two cars were partly de-
molished, but moro to warn children
away from the tracks and prevent
more serious accidents In the future,
than to fix responsibility for the dam
age, the railroad company started an
investigation.
A woman told the detectives that
one of the children wore red dress.
Helen Schultz wore a red dress and
drew the attention OF Detective Jeff-
reys. He questioned her and learned
the truth.
II didn't do It," she said. ut was
Freddie. We were playing on the
tracks when we saw a freight train
switching. Look, Helen, said Fred
die to me. I'm going TO turn this
switch and see those cars bust up and
then we can take the wood home for
the stoves
YOU'D better not told him, but
he did anyway. Pretty soon the cars
came along. When the cars reached
the switch two cars were thrown of
the track. Neither OF the cars was
broken very much"
Freddie told his story and denied
that he had turned the switch.

orally believed to be impregnable for
tihcations.
In fleeing from the city Kouroratlin
is believed to have abandoned large
stores, many guns and other trophies
which will prove of great value to the
Japanese.
In the light OF events the evacuation
of Liaoyang. therefore, is looked upon
as a crushing defeat for the cars
army. Kouropatkin's retreat TO north
OF the Taltse river is not regarded
here as move OF the Russians for
strategic purposes, but is generally
believed To have been a determined
effort to escape and prevent a cap.
ture of the entire army.
