SASSALlTCH RELIEVED
Russian Commander in the East VIII
Be Succeeded by Lieutenant Gen
eraI Count Keller


st. Petersburg, May 1e.-It is an.
nounced tonight that Lieut. Gen. Sas-
salitch has been relieved of the COM
mand of the Second Siberian army di-
vision and that Lieut.. Gen. Count KEEL
Ter, former governor of EkaterinoSlav,
has been appointed to succeed him.
Since the battle of the Yalu it has
been predicted that Gen. Sassaltch
would not long retain his command,
but there has been no disposition to act
hastily. The emperor's advisers could
not forget that while Sassalitch did not
carry out the plan of operations which
had been previously determined upon,
he had displayed q stubborn resistance
which showed to the enemy and to the
world that the Russians had not lost
their courageous spirit Of past genera
tions.
What Will become of Sassalitch.
whether he will remain in the far east
or be assigned to a less important re-
gion. can not be learned, but 1t Is en-
phatically stated that there is no in
tention to disgrace him, and that if he
returns from the far east it will be on
sick leave at his own request. 1t Is
generally believed that he will find it
convenient to make such an applica-
ton
Lieutenant General Count Keller re-
Gently resigned the governorship Of
katerinoslav in order to go to the front.
He Is a far ADLER soldier than and ad-
ministrator, and is younger than Cen
era! Sassalitch, being only 54 years old.
He participated In three campaigns
during the Turkish war. He Is consid-
cred to be distinguished .strategist
and the possessor of cool judgment.

CLOSING ABOUT RUSSIANS.
Japanese in Five Columns Near tn.
Long Line of the Enemy

Japanese in Five Columns Near tho
Long Line of the Enemy.
Mukden, May 19.-Delayed) The
fighting line is steadily nearing Muk-
den, where Viceroy Alexieff's head
quarters still remain. Little reliable in
formation can be obtained by news
paper correspondents who are forbidden
to proceed to the scene Of operations,
official information is withheld until
advices are sent to St. Petersburg
1t is known, however, that the Japan
csc are almost within striking distance
of the Russians, and that the forces
protecting Lao Yang. are stretching
eastward from the railroad along the
Mao Tien mountain range.
The Japanese are advancing in three
columns and are now north of Stu Yen,
and Feng Wang Cheng.
Two columns are reported to be work
Ing northWard With the object of turn
ing the Russian position and advancing
upon Mukden. Numerous small en-
gagements have been fought but no
decisive action has taken place.
Port Arthur Is now completely isOlat-
ed by the Japanese expedition at
Polandien.
The Japanese are now operating in
rugged country we'll suited to the Rus
sian defense, but north of Lao Yang
to Mul1den the country is a fiat plain
1ntersected by rivers. Weather recent
ly has been hot and dry, but rain which
has fallen in the past two days has
made the roads almost impossible for
vehicles and when the rainy season
begins at The end Of June this plain
will be converted into a morass. This
condition will probably result in prac-
teal suspension of operations.
Mukden is now receiving center for
the wounded from various engagements
south of the Mao Tien mountains. A
significant feature of the situation Is
the demeanor Of the Chinese population
which may be said to be the barometer
of the military weather. A close OBJ
server Of the expressions and general
attitude Of the Chinese can tell how
