SUMMARY OF WAR NEWS
Only Unimportant skirmishes Break
Monotony in Manchuria-Ei9hty
Thousand Were Slain in
Recent Battles.

A review of the recent fighting be-
tween the Japanese and Russians
south of Mukden shows immense loss
es to both forces, but a decisive vic
tory for neither The opposing ar
mics are still facing each other,
though a distance of several miles lies
between them. Offensive operations
on the part of Russians are reported
to have been made ten miles from
Mukden, and skirmish attacks are CT
frequent occurrence along the entire
line. No really important aggressive
movements, however, are announced.
A very heavy and decisive engagement
is considered certain to occur before
many days TO the southwark OF Muk-
den as a result of concentration in
that vicinity of immense bodies OF the
opposing forces. The weather has be-
come very much colder and great suf'
fering among the soldiers is report
ed.
A dispatch received at the Japanese
legation in London from Toxic, under
Saturdays date, says Marquis Oyama
reports that the Shakhe river engage
ment resulted in the capture by the
japanese of 500 prisoners and forty
five guns, while 1850 Russian corpses
were counted.
A st. Petersburg dispatch says; The
az IN,
to give figures of the casualties i'll
the long battle below Mullden, but ev-
erything indicates that the Russian
losses reached 10000, the figure given
by the Associated Press correspond
ent at Mukden. Another correspond,
ent places the loses on both sides at
$4,000.
The war office is convinced the Jap
anese losses, while below those of the
Russians, were almost as heavy.
A delayed Mukden dispatch says
The Japanese hurriedly evacuated
Shakepu, three miles east Of Shakhe
station, on Thursday night in order to
escape being surrounded. Under the
cover of Thursdays fog they had tried
to surprise the adTance guard i'm
mediately on the Russian right flank
The latter repaid them in their own
coin with interest by taking Shakepu
on both tanks and not leaving the
japanese any alternative except
hurried fight. They abandoned a
quantity OF arms and ammunition.
Several Japanese came into the Rus
sian lines and voluntarily surrendered.
A Toxic special of Sunday says:
Manchurian headquarters, reported by
telegraph yesterday Saturday., says
that the number of Russian dead
found on the battlefield and inferred
up to October %, makes total Of
1850. Upon this total Russian cas-
ualties are estimated to exceed CO.
900. The Japanese captured total
of forty-fve guns during the Shakhe
operations.

Russian Baltic Fleet Goes
Wrong at the Very Start
ENGLAND TO HEAR FROM
Hull Fishing Fleet ShelIed in North
Sea Without Apparent ProVoca-
ton and CONSERVATION.
Relgns in London.

A dispatch from Hull, England,
says: M. Jackson & Company, So
Iicitors for the owners Of the fifty
Hull fishing boats have notified the
foreign Office and admiralty at London
of an attack on the Hull fishing fleet
by the Russian Pacific fleet, common
III known as the Baltic squadron,
commanded by Vice Admiral RoJest-
vensky.
The official information is that
shortly after midnight Friday the Rus
sian squadron fell in with the Hull
fishing fleet in the North sea. The
first portion of the fishing fleet pass
ed safely. Then the Russian ships
turned their searchlights on the Brit
ish vessels for some time, and little
later opened fire, many Of the crew
being seriously injured.
The steam trawler Crane was sunk
and the decapitated bodies OF her
skipper and mate, Messrs. Smith and
Leggett. have been brought to Hull.
| The boatswain and other members OF
the crew who are understood to be
seriously wounded, are on board a
mission ship. The only slightly in
iured member of the crew has az
rived at Hull.
Fishing Boats Badly RiddIed.
The news has created an intense
sensation, and indignation in Hull
The Moulmein arrived with her flag
at half mast. Her skipper states that
the travlers were fishing about 220
miles east by north Of Spurn Head at
1 o'clock Saturday morning, the wealth
er being hazy, when the outlines OF
several vessels, apparently warships,
sailing in a line were dimly seen.
| While the crew were watching the
warships searchlights were flashed
upon them, in the flare Of which the
| MouImein's crew observed what they
| took to be torpedo boats approaching,
apparently with the intention OF
boarding the Moulmein. They steam
ed away, however, and soon the fish
ermen were Mortified to find they
were being fred upon.
First one and then another trawler
was struck by flying shot. What
seemed to be a round shot went
through the Moulmein galley. The
Mino, lying nearby, also was struck
with many shots, but fortunately the
damage was above her water line, and
none of her crew was struck. The
bombardment lasted about 20 min
utes. When it had ceased the fleet
sailed southwark.
No motive can be assigned for the
extraordinary procedure Of the Rus
sian warships.
According to other reports the af-
fair occurred 200 miles off Spurn
Head. The Russian ships were steam.
ing in line. The leading ships pass
ed without incident though most If
the vessels turned searchlights on the
trawlers long enough to prevent any
mistaken identity.
After the bulk of the squadron had
passed, it opened fire, nearly all par
ticipating in the firing. The Crane
was struck below the water line and
raked above deck. Skipper Smith
and Third Hand Leggett had their
heads carried clean away by a shell,
many of the crew being seriously
wounded.
Another trawler also was sunk, but
the Sea Gull, which arrived later and
brought the news to Hull, has no par
ticulars as to her fate.

 There are signs of the waning Of summer. Among the roads the golden rod shows yellow, the wild cherries are ripe. the songsters are heard no more in thicket and hedge row; and hocks of birds are circling about, training this years broods for their Southern flight. There Is an air of lassitude over everything. After a great burst or energy which covered the meadows with tall grasses, broke out in waves of fragrant bloom and carried every shrub and treetop a little nearer to their source of life. Nature seems to be resting before rousing herself to another effort. which will bring all her growth and fruitage to the ripeness of garnering time. The days are per ceptibly shorter and the nights begin to have q touch of chillness. If you have waited till now for your outing why not go to the Maine woods?
