 Russians Retire Slowly.
 The thunder and rain continued all the morning of the 18th, but notwithstanding this, firing opened promptly at daylight. The Russians fought stubbornly. but re- tired slowly. The Japanese continued to threaten the Russian left. Toward even ing the Japanese opened with all their guns on the Russian positions, the shells dropping like hail in the field and on the hills. The morning of the 14th found the Russians with their backs to the Shakhe river, across which transports had been withdrawn during the night. Fighting continued from these positions all during the day of the 14th, while the Russian endorsements took up positions on the hills to the north of the river. Another thunderstorm broke shortly after noon, flooding the streams and turning the roads into seas, and by evening the main Russian force had withdrawn across the Shakhe river. --e Japanese shells were dropping within short distance of the river on the left.
 The fighting recommended at daylight today, the boom of guns being distinctly heard in Mukden. The whole Russian army is slowly retiring and fighting every inch of the way. When the Asso- ciated Press correspondent came north today there appeared no danger of any part of the army being cut off
 In an informal talk which the Associa- ted Press correspondent had with General KuropatlSin in the field just before the battle, he spoke in glowing terms of the bravery of the Japanese, saying they were a gallant foe, and that they were also most correct in the observance of the rules of war. In this respect he said it the most pleasant war he had ever been engaged in

SEOUL. Corea, Jan. 16.-The American

The American authorities have taken
the precaution to provide male escorts

The native press is slightly offensive
to foreign residents. and 1t Is quite pos

Troops now guard all the foreign

they begin to make trouble.
