regarding the japanese position. ac-

the japanese commanders based upon
the results Of the first hight.
The Cossacks say that the inhabit-

Russians and sold them food and for

the Russian coin to the Chinese notes.
Many Koreans, armed and led by
japanese officers, constitute the rear
guard of the army.
The raidiug party came I'm contact
with the Koreans frequently and some
times there were several skirmishes
daily. There was some heavy fighting
and one battle lasted all day long. as
the result OF which the Koreans and
the japanese lost fifty killed.
The COssaCks were eventually re-
pulsed by d superior force Of Japanese
cavalry, which was sent to cut them
of at the Yalu and which 0utmaTched
and 0Utmaneuvered them.
The raiders crossed safely. They de-
stroyed two important bridges, cut the
telegraph wherever they could and Sc
riously interrupted communication
north, south and west Of Anju. The
crops in Korea, the Cossacks say, are
in splendid condition and the country
IS prosperous, owing TO the large cir

St. Petersburg. June 19-Vice Ad-
miraI Skrydl0ns message to the em-
pcr0T from VladiVOstOk. in which lie
details the operations Of the Nladivo-
stok squadron, indicates that he has
accounted for at least three Of the Jap
anese transports besides a suspected
collier The message does not indicate
the present whereabouts of the squad
ron. The fact that the collier was sent
TO Nladivostok under a prize crew
might indicate that the news of the
operations of the squadron was brought
there by her and that the cruisers are
still at sea.
The destruction of an aggregate Of
1900 tons OF shipping. besides tr0oBs
and crews and a valuable cargo of sup
plies, is considered here as being
good showing for the raid made by the
cruisers. It is thought that 10 win have
