and the Examinations in honor of the

Newsboys up to midnight raced
through the thoroughfares with even.

victory, and the crowds bought the
papers greedily. Groups of men in
brilliant uniforms or i'll evening dress
at the hotels and restaurants discussed
the change in the fortunes of war; but
the people as a whole were slow to take
fire. They received the news of the
earlier reverses stolidly, and now ac-
cepted reports of Russian successes and
the capture of guns quietly, with salts
faction, but with considerable reserve.
Correspondents at the front the past
AZ hours had been limiting that the
Russian army was on the eve Of an
other adynace, but it was thought here
that the troops we've too exhausted by
more than a week of Titantic struggle
to engage i'll an immediate advance
movement. Therefore the news of the
definite resumption of the adance was
calculated to arouse the greater salts.
faction, but the realization of the sic.
nlticance of news permeates the masses
here more slowly than in American
cities. The Kaleidoscope changes Oh
the Shaken river have been to swift
for the populace to follow, and so the
better news from the front has been sc
far taken with comparative quiet. IL
the best informed circles, however, this
already is accepted as true. 1t is be
ieved that General Kuropatkin in
tended to signalize the cZarvitch's fet

Nicholas did at Plevna.
The failure of the war office to give
out dispatches is attributed to the holi

LOSSES OF 10000 ON BOTH SIDES.
Strong Argument for Peace in Awful
Tragedy.

Tokio.-There is a strong appeal for
peace in the appalling tragedy which
is now under enactment in Manchuria.
Both armies have fought ferociously
for week, and desperate fighting still
continues. 1t is probable that the
death roll will be largely increased
before the final shot is fired.
The preliminary reports indicate
that about 10000 men on both sides
have been either killed or wounded,
the larger portion of them being Rus
SLAMS, since the armies of the two
belligerents closed in combat Even
the Japanese, to whom the great vic
tory is of paramount Importance, seem
to be shocked by the slaughter of their
enemies.
The japanese people are receiving
the news from the field of battle calm
ly, and there can be heard no Shout
in the streets proclaiming the victory
of their nation.

mukden Reports That Japanese Failed
to Hold IL,

Mukden, Oct. 17.-Shakhe is again
IN the hands of the Russians. After
the last evacuation of the village by
the Russians the Japanese failed in an
attempt to reoccupy it, and now the
village is held by Russian infantry.
There is every indication that the Rus.
sian right flank is about TO resume the
offensive and reoccupy the positions
held by them on October 10 and II.
The Japanese resistance is growing
weaker and they are apparently pre-.
pairing to evacuate. Toward the east
and center the Japanese are more stub.
born and are showing more resistance
Some of the positions of the fighting
line have already changed hands ten
times.
The Russians were engaged Sunday
In heavy rear guard action south
west of ouakhe. The Japanese. who
are in enormous force, have a great
advantage in knowing the topography
of the country. They evince a desper.
ate courage. They have suffered ter
rlDle losses, but bear them with per-
feet equanimity. Their energy seems
unbounded and they continue the ag-
gressive increasingly.

HEROIC ACTION SAVES THE PASS
Gallant Charge of Left Column Wins
for Japan.

Liaoyang, Oct. 17.-General Oku
commanding the Japanese left, is driv-
ing the Russian reserves back upon
Changtau, after having frustrated their
attempt to flank him. He captured
two more guns east of the Tumin pass,
and trained them upon the enemy.
Heavy cannonading is heard without
interruption from the direction of the
pass, and it is believed here that Cen
eral Oku is following up his success by
pursuit. Field Marshall Oyama has
ordered seven regiments of infantry
and three columns Of cavalry to pro-
coed to the Tumin pass in order to
enable General Oku to cover the ter
ritory east and west during the pur-
suit.
1t develops now that but for the he
roic action of the extreme left column
of General Oku's force, all the advan-
tages so far gained might have been
lost. The column was reduced to less
than one fifth of it's original size, but
prevented the Russians from complet-
ing their thanking movement and turn
ed threatening defeat into victory.

Wyoming Rangers
Having Trouble

Big Piney, Wyo., Oct, 20. -Ranchers
arriving from the vicinity of Gray's
river report n pitched battle between
the cattle and sheep forces between the
river and Piney creek, in which 700
sheep, the property of the Butterfeld
outfit, were driven over high cliff and
killed
The trouble originated over the ex-
pulsion of the Buttertield sheep from
the forest reserve, where it is claimed
the horders drove them without permit.
In the first instance the outfit was
driven from the reerve by Forest Ran
ger Miller and put off on the west side
On again entering the forbidden range
the reserve officer rejected them on
the east side and into strong cattle
county. The cattlemen in that terri
tory learned of the details of the trou-
BILE ont he reserve and ran the sheep
over the cliff.

Oyama Tells of Decisive Jap Vic
tory.


Toxic, Oct 17.-Field Marshal Mar,
quis Oyama, in kilograms to the war
office, summarizes the operations
against the Russions south of Mukden
up to Saturday October 10, as fol
lows:
"As a sequel to the fight lasting five
days continuously, we have driven
back superior forces of the enemy at
every point pursuing him and forcing
him to the south bank of the Hun
river
1--WE have inflicted heavy losses,
captured over 30 guns, and hundreds
of prisoners. We have defeated the
enemy's plans, converting his offensive
operations into a radical failure. The
enemy's dead are everywhere on the
field, and indeed are too numerous for
their number to be even estimated.
We have already buried easily 1000 of
the dead Russians and still great num-
bers are lying on the field of battle
"Since the fighting is still progress
ing, it is imossible accurately to esti-
mate the casualties of the enemy, but
these must be at least 10000"
