Washington. The trust busting ma
chinery Of the government is not in
working order just now, and from
present appearances it will not be
properly geared up until some time
after the middle Of November. Judge
Day, who was made an assistant at
torney general for the express purpose
of seeing that the wicked corporations
were kept within the strict letter of
the law, is off in Alaska, looking after
the conduct Of certain judges. The
Department Of Justice has corps Of
special agents whose duty it is to ex-
anime into charges against judges, but
it was thought necessary to take Judge
Day away from his trust prosecutions
and send him to Alaska.

The place had been fortified by the

Me lighting Gen. Kuroki's troops
arove the Russian from their strong
E fortified position on the Chi river,
which is northwest of Molten pass and
east of Anping, inflicting upon the en-
smy more serious losses than they sus-
sained themselves.
The japanese lost 424 men in kill
and wounded. The Russian losses are
estimated at 1000 men,
Gen. Kuroki began his advance ear
ly in the morning Of the Goth. He I'M
covered and followed the enemy along
the Chi river. The Russians seemed to
be retiring to the northward when
suddenly two battalions with eight
guns turned and attacked the Japan
sse advance guard vigorously.
At this point the japanese suffered
before relief came, one company los
ing all it's officers. At late hour in
the afternoon the Russian position
was developed. They occupied an en-
inence on the banks of the Chi. This
river guarded their left flank and high
precipices protected the Russians on
the right. The only approach to their
position was through narrow defile.
The. fighting continued until dark
when the japanese forces bivouacked
The Russians made two counter at
tacks but We're repulsed in each case.
The Japanese renewed the attack
at midnight, posting their artillery in
the valley below and on the high
ground to the south of the Russian
centre; a small detachment was sent
towards the right flank and another to
watch the enemy's left flank. After
these positions had been taken the
fighting ceased for time, but it was
resumed at dawn. The Russians had
b guns in action, and they vigorous
ly shelled the japanese. To this fire
the japanese replied, the lombard
ment lasting for four hours. During
this time the japanese infantry moved
forward. The fankers had succeeded
in scaling the heights on the Russians
right by 3 o'clock in the afternoon at
which hour the main force was order
ed to storm the Russian center.
The japanese succeeded in par
TALLY cutting off the Russian retreat
and this soon became a rout. The
snemy went in two directions to the
northward and to he eastward. The
Russian forces engaged included, in
addition to the artillery, seven battal-
