IN YENTAI BATTLE.
Claimed That Russians Lost 25,000 and
Japs 5000.

With Gen Oku's Left Army at the
Front. Oct. 16.-Via Tien Tsin.-The seven
days battle north of Yentai Was the
heaviest blow yet struck the Russians by
the Japanese. so far as loss of life is con-
cerned. The Left Japanese army during
the week buried 400 Russian dead lett H.,
front of its lines. A village In front OF
the left wing contains many Russian dead
but the shell fire Of the retreating Rus
slams prevents the Japanese from reach
ing them. Conservative estimates place
the Russian casualties at not less than
5000. Probably many more dead are on
the field at places not yet reached.
The japanese place their total casual
ties at little over 1000 killed and wound

BOTH ARMIES EXHAUSTED.
The Situation At the Front Resolves
Itself.

st. Petersburg. Oct. 20.-The situation
at the front has resolved itself into
this: Beth armies are SO exhausted
physically and 50 lacking in supplies
that the issue OF the great battle which
Is no smouldering and likely to burst
into tame at any moment, depends
upon which army can bring up REIN
forccments and stores quickly enough
to enable it to take the offensive eff
fectively.
Heavy rains have caused disaster
preventing the Russians from bringing
up supplies. Gen. Sakharoffs official
telegram ends with the words: II have
noticed the enemy making formidable
concentration at position in front of
our center"
That the losses have been enormous
IL clearly shown by the fact that three
days ago $4,000 wounded Russian SOL
diers passed along the direct road be-
tween Mukden and Tie pass. There is
also second road along which other
wounded soldiers are probably making
their way.
News from Port Arthur gives no hone
that the place will hold out much
longer.

MARX DECLARED GUILTY
Of Murder Of His Employe and !.
Awaiting Death Sentence.

New London, CT, Oct. 20.-"Guilty of
murder in the first degree" was the
verdict found by the jury, which for
almost two weeks has listened to evil
dcnce produced hy the state against
killing his farm hand Pavol ROdecki,
last spring. Tonight. he is back in his
cell in the county Jail. awaiting the
sentence of death, which undoubtedly,
will be passed upon him as provided by
law, when the court resumes its sit
tings, tomorrow afternoon. This will
be the first time in so years that the
death sentence has been passed in this
county. and the first time it has ever
been pronounced on a Hebrew in Con-
necticut. Marx showed no concern
when he heard the verdict pronounced,
for all day he had held steadfast to the
belle: that he would have what he
called justice.
Marx is 70 years of age. with every
appearance of being much older. He
has been married several times, mar
rying his present wife, who is held as
an accessory to the crime, about 20
years ago. The state in prosecuting
Marx for murder, claimed that he
killed Rodecki rather than pay him
six months wages. which were due and
that he afterwards cut up the body,
sewed 1t in sack and buried 1t in an
oil dcellar. The same manner of dis
posing of the body of second farm
hand was followed and the county Off
GERS are firmly of the opinion that 9TH
