the fact which is attested by the police
that our ranks We're practically un-

doing great damage IN several sections
of California. In Alameda and Contra

have been swept by the flames and many
houses destroyed. the loss reaching $780,
coo In Marin county fires have burned
over the slopes of Mount Tamalpas. and
now threaten the Mount Tamalpas Seen

ties thousands of acres of pasturage
have been burned and the stock driven
from the ranges. None of the fires are
yet under control and no estimate Of

PRESS IS oUTsPoKEN.
Demand That Kuropatkin be Made
Chief.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 9.--An impene-
trable curtain seems to have been rung
down on the exact situation at the
theatre of war. The lack of news here
concerning the details OF the Russians
retreat to Mukden and the movements
of the japanese army may be described
as complete. Even the meager. reports
published in the foreign press arc not
fully communicated to the Russian
newspapers, and for three days prac
tically no newspaper dispatches have
been coming through from the front
Information may be withheld for stra
tegic reasons; but the public is disposed
10 regard il as otherwise, resulting IN
the circulation Of widest reports, some
Of the Russian papers demanding in
pretty outSpOken fashion reorganiza-
ton of the conditions at the front, and
also demanding that General Kuropat-
kin be given untrammelled control as
commander-in-chief, evidently aiming
at Viceroy Alexieff, wko is supposed to
be responsible for insisting latterly
that the reinforcements should go to
Vladivostok in view Of the probability
of early japanese operations there or
at Hardin, thus depriving Kuropatkin
Of troops which would have turned the
scale at Lao Yang.
The Russ is especially bold. consider
ing the restrictions placed on the Rus
sian press. 1t declares that numerical
superiority is not enough. and that
what is needed Is some of the do-or-die
spirit of the Japanese. The paper
quotes the words of General Dragomi-
ron, former governor general OftKieff,
an authority on military matters, as
follows:
Give me a soldier who is firmly de-
termined TO die for his country and I
will guarantee that my tactics will be
super excellent. The man who will
lay down his life is terrible. a bullet
may stop one such man, but It viii not
stop company. 1t is difficult to fight
and more difficult to vanquish them.
The Russ continues: What we need
IS an entirely new organization of eV-
erything connected directly or Indirect
~ with the military operations. A
good deal is admirable, but a good deal
also Is deplordbie. The fact that things
have not gone we'll at the theatre Of
war may be due TO the fact that every
thing is not directed with single aim,
