Another Heart-BIeaking Blow to the
Russian People

ST Petersburg, Oct. 15.-(5:22 p. nj
The silence Of the Russian authorities
at this critical hour is heart breaking
for the public. Not a single official
word has been given out to relieve the
suspense and anxiety for over twenty
four hours, and the public is convinced
that il can only mean that General
huropatkin's world proclaimed ad-
vance has ended H. complete disaster
with such frightful losses that they will
stagger Russia even after Lao Yang.
Most circumstantial stories attributed
10 court circles are told of the failure
of the Russian left from where Kuro-
patkin aimed his chief blow The Rus
sian commander is stated 20 have had
two and a half army corps there. with
one and half corps in reserve, and
they are said to have been beaten and
thrown into a state Of confusion bor-
dering on a rOut. it being now only a
question of the magnitude of the defeat.

was really feinting on his front having
only three corps, with ore general in
reserve along the whole center and
right.

repeatedly declined 10 consider danger

II is impossible to trace these stories

stan prOnOunces them to be wild. at
tributing them to the general feeling
Of panic. Yet the members of the staff
reluctantly admit that they can offer
no official news TO contradict them.
The officials of the war Office them
selves seem TO share in the general
pessimism. The emperor. they say
has Kuropatkin's reports, but has not

The only thing the general staff is
