RETREAT FROM HAI-CHENG
Intense Heat Causes HeaUy Losses
Lack of Russian Ne1CS.

St. Petersburg. Aug. 4. BIS a. m.-There has
been an Ominous silence at the front since the
receipt OF General Kuropatkin's brief dispatch
OF August .. reporting the evacuation OF Hal
Chens and a cessation Of the attack on the
eastern 1fank.
There are neither official nor press dispatches
late tonight to Indicate the progress Of fighting
around I4iao-Yang. where it is felt that most
serious situation must exist. It is thought
possible that there may be temporary lulL
The terrible heat alone would be enough TO de-
moralize the armies. and it would not be sur
prising if. coupled with previous severe fight
ing, it forced both sides to halt.
There is the gravest anxiety here to learn
whether General Kuropatkin is seriously giving
battle is screening the withdrawal of his
main force There is persistent story afiOat
that the Russian army has been moving north
for some days. but this cannot be confirmed.
Nothing can be obtained tonight regarding
the reported sinking of the Japanese armored
cruiser KasugO.

General KurOpatkin's ability to retreat.
Dispatches from Toxic said that The Rus

loss of their position at Si-Mu-Cheng on Sun
