north are still of a tentative ana pre-
paratory character on both Sides
which have not yet crystalllzed into
definite clash of forces at any one
point.
Japs May Move Any Time.
A resumption OF the japanese ad'
vance Is now expected to occur any

fighting at Lao Yang. and the Japan
csc have had time to transport re-
Inducements from Yinkow and to
bring sufficient force of men to the

rot improbable that several days VIII
intervene before the armies come TO
close quarters.
FeeIina Each others Strength.
The interval Is being devoted on
both sides to feeling out the strength
and disposition of the opposing
forces. The Japanese probably VIII
attempt to capture the passes OF the
Da mountain range, running halt way
between the Hun and the Taitse
rivers. The possession OF these

will not only enable them to march
northwald but also screen the move

gaze of Russian scouts.
Must Capture Mukden.
It is fully appreciated here that the
Japanese must try for the possession
of Mukden. as otherwise 1t Will be
difficult for them to provide the army
with winter quarte,s Lao Yang
does not afford sufficient accommoda'
tion, although many houses escaped
destruction in the recent battle. NOV
able huts are quite unsuitable 1or the
housing of the Japanese, owing TO the
/ severity of the climate. the average
Temperature there Is 40 degrees pc
low zero, and the cold Is intensined by
continual winds and ali almost entire
absence of snow. In spite m TINS.
however, the campaign probably VIII
continue during the winter II the
