and Mukden are afraid that General
KuroM will move to their rear and cut
off their retreat to Harbin, and they ART
exerting themselves to stop this by
making strong intrenchments to the
east Of Mukden.
The Japanese near Vafangow are fol-
lowing the retreating Russians with
part of their forces, probably 10000,
while the remainder, probably 10000,
have stopped at Vafangow ready to re-
| inforce their pursuing force II neces-
sary. A Japanses force from General
Kuroki's army Is undoubtedly march
ing to intercept General Stakelberg.
This move is made, probably, with the
hope that General Kuropatkin will send
such a number of troops south from
Lao Yang as to weaken himself at
those places, in which case General
Kuroki vii attack the main Russian po-
sitions at Lao Yang and Mukden, and
In case he can get in the Russian rear
Kuropatkins army will be enveloped
on three sides, south, east and north,
by superior Japanese army, in which
case the Russians will either have TO
literally cut their way out, whip kuro-
XII, be annihSated or surrender. The
two last seem most probable, as Ku-
roki, with the 10000 Japanese troops
in the vicinity of Vafangow. must have
over 100000 men, while the Russians
have not to exceed 10000 that can be
brought to bear. The Russian position
in Manchuria is considered more criti-
cal at this time than ever before. In
the vicinity of Port Arthur, due to re-
inforcements which have been poured
into the japanese lines during the last
week, General Oku has probably $4,000
men in addition to those sent north.
The siege is being vigorously pushed
by land and sea, probably with success,
as liberal preparations in men and
guns have been made, while the fleet
S3-operates from the sea under COM
mand of Admiral Togo.
During the past week no naval en-
counters have occurred between war
vessels. The Russian yladivostok
squadron. with three fast cruisers and
some torpedo boat destroyers, has made
successful raid and has sunk two of
the best japanese transports. loaded
with many tons of supplies, and with
loss of life OF approximately 1000 men.
! These transports were encountered by
the Russians near the Oki islands,
Wnlch lie between the stralts OF Snl-
monoseh and Korea. Due to dense fogs
prevailing in these parts, the japanese
squadron under Admiral Iriu has been
unable up to this time to intercept
them. The transports sunk were each
of about 5000 tons displacement, and
are said to have belonged to the Japa-
nese Toyo Kisen, Kaisha Steamship
Company. The raid Of the vladivostok
ships has been one of the most daring
acts of the Russians since the begin
ming Of the war. As soon as the devel-
opments on the Lao Tunk peninsula
and Manchuria will permit. the Japa-
nese will undoubtedly send force to
Possiet bay to isolate Vladivostok and
March to Harbin. In anticipation OF
this move. the commanding officer at
Vladivostok has ordered all non-com-
batants away. As affairs stand now, 1t
looks dark for the Russians.

Over Three Hundred Identified.
New York, June l7.-With unceasing
effort, search is going on for the bodies
Of those who perished Wednesday on
the General Slocum.
What the list Of victims will total
scarce any one dares venture a guess,
but whatever the number may be, there
is hardly a parallel in the history OF
disasters where death came to so many
in so brief a period of time.
Police and Health Department Off
cials have placed the number at fig
ure as high as 1000 and more, but to-
night it would seem that the maximum
fatalities will not largely exceed 700.
All day long, from sunrise until dark
ness shut off even the melancholy sat
isfaction of watching for the dead, anx-
ious searchers kept up their vigilance,
and at dusk there had been recovered
536 bodies, for the greater part women
and children; mothers who weeks ago
had planned that fatal outing Tor their
children, little ones who had longed Tor
the happy day,
Up to dusk 499 bodies had passed
through the morgue, and OF these more
than 800 were identified.
| The East Side had its human sympa-
, thies aroused to the fullest extent, and
down by the river where the boats un-
loaded their dead, thousands gathered
throughout the day.
Streets leading to the morgue were
blocked and only with difficulty could
the police keep clear the passages lead
ing to the long rows of collins for those
who came to search for the missing.
