.OBEYED ORDERS
KvRoPArk,n FORCED TO FIGHT
Russian Prisoners Say Emperor Or.
dered Acknowledgements Badly
Depleted In Numbers.

Toxic, Sept. 16--S p. m.--According
to statements made by Russian prls-
oners, General Kuropatkin was ordered
by Emperor Nicholas to make stand
at Mukden and to assume the aggres-
sive as speedily as possible, In order TO
relieve the Port Arthus garrison.
This order. the prisoners say,
reached Mukden on September 27th,
and General Kuropatkin. in obedience
to it. began his disastrous southern ad-
vance movement. An extended report
dealing with the statements OF these
prisoners is as follows:
According to statements made to Of
ficers of the center army by Russian
prisoners whom they had captured, the
enemy had received information that
the strength of the garrison at Port
Arthur was being daily reduced and
that the garrison was In disastrous
condition. Fresh Russian reinforce
ments were constantly arriving at
Manchria from Europe and the strength
of the forces under General kuropatkin
In the neighborhood of Mukden had
reached to over nine army corps.
'Thereupon, the prisoners said, the
Russian Empey Son .Septemb 9th or
dored Kuropatefa not to retire step
beyond Mukden and directed him, cir
oumstances permitting, to assume the
offensive as quickly as possible and to
drive the japanese out OF southern
Manchuria, in order to rescue the Port
Arthur garrison.
"The prisoners declared that the war
would continue for long time because
the Russians had decided to attain a
final victory, regardless of the losses
which might be involved, as otherwise
a defeat would mean n general revolu-
tion and the disintegration of Russian
territory.
During one engagement the Thirty
seventh division, especially the First
brigade, sustained extraordinary losses.
The first company OF the One Hundred
and Forty-ffth regiment was annihilated
on Sankuaihsi mountain and many line
officers were killed, wounded or cap
tured. The Third Siberian reserve di-
vision sustained the greatest loss.
AT the beginning Of the war the
Russian regiments numbered 1000 men
each. After the battle OF Lao Yang
each OF the regiments was reduced to
strength of about 250O. with the excep-
ton of the Twelfth regiment. which as
a result of this battle was reduced to
500. This regiment. after the battle,
was commanded by captain, the bat
talions being in command of sub-lieu-
tenants. while the older privates di-
rected the operations of It's companies"

ADDRESS TO THE VOTERS or
COLORADO
BY Chairman D. B. Farley of the Re.
publican State Committee.

BY Chairman D. B. Farley of the Re.
publican State Committee.
To the Voters of Colorado:
The success at the coming election OF
the Republican state ticket, headed by
Governor Peabody, involves economic
results of the first magnitude to every
voter interested in the welfare of the
state
1t is common knowledge that in
vestors and capitalists throughout the
United States will regard the defeat OF
Governor Peabody as conclusive evil
dence that further Investments In Col
orado would be unwise because the law
less element of society, specially repre-
sented by the Western Federation of
Miners, would be 'the power behind tie
throne" and dictate the policy of the
state Democratic convention.
Regardless of politics. the mine own
ers of the state, almost without excep-
ton, will accept the defeat of Cover
nor Peabody as conclusive evidence
that their properties will not receive
proper protection from the lawless die
tation of, and acts of violence by the
Western Federation of Miners, thus in
evitably resulting in paralyzing one Of
the chief industries of the state.
Whatever lessons the development or
output Of the coal. iron or precious
metal mines of the state, vitality affects
the farmers, the stock raisers. the rail-
roads. and every other pursuit upon
which the very existence of the state
depends.
1t also dlsastrously affects the work
men and laborers of the state, because
whatever curtails or checks the opera
tions of the plants and industries, Civ
ing employment to wage earners. neces-
sarily means corresponding reduction
in the number of those employed.
The election of Alva Adams will,
therefore. imperil the interests of ev-
cry property owner and law-abiding
wage Garner in Colorado.
