SaUed at LiaO-Y Yang.

The bulk of the Russian army is reported
near Aloukden. and the officials at St. Peters

of Kuropatkin's forces is past. No dispatches
from the opposing commanders were made
public either at Toxic or St. Petersburg,
Both armies are said to be exhausted.
Advices from Moukden said that the city
was in tumult, being crowded with troops,
guns and transports. Many families arc
fleeing to Harbin. The feeling among the
Chinese against the Russians is growing with
the japanese advance.
Great quantities of food and ammunition,
a dispatch from Toxic reported, had been
saved from the flames at Liao-Yang. The
japanese Emperor in a message of oongratu-

St Petersburg sept. S.-The general staff are
not displaying great anxiety over the sensational
reports that General kuropatkin is in serious
danger Of being cut off. but if they had any in
formation from the front yesterday they have
not revealed it, and they also decline TO say.

intends to take his army north of Aioukden. An
officer Of the general staff said last night:
believe it is safe 10 say that General Kuro-

.ices since Monday indicate that the fighting is
that the gired japanese troops are capable Of
seriously threatening the line of retreat. The

Moukden. Sept. "A correspondent has just
arrived here, after journey of 100 miles from
sin-Tsin-Tin. east Of Moulden, and says that
during the latter part OF his journey he could
hear the firing in the fight at Liao-Yang. The
correspondent says:
The whole country is alame with the widest
and most contradictory rumors.
The principal interest is shown in the fact
that the Chinese population is becoming more
ant-Russian with the advance Of the japanese
army.
MOukden itself is oYercrOwded. and it is al
most impossible to get food or a place TO sleep.
Everywhere there is the greatest uproar and
confusion and many families are leaving the city
in the direction of Harbin. The soldiers, how
ever, not at all disheartened at the result Of
the fight and they say that the japanese losses
are SO tremendous as TO seriously weaken them.
They declare that they have made the japanese
pay infinitely more for Liao-Yang than it was
worth.
