THE EVACUATION OF LAO YANG
The Thrilling Diary of an Associated
 Press Correspondent.

Aukden, Sept. Correspondents of the Associated ress.J-From the diary of one of the Associated Press correspondents with the Russian army is taken the following nu1es on the battle of Liao Yang.
 August 2S.-Returning from the fun eraI Of General Routkowsky, I met a whole train Of ambulance carts filled with wounded. two or three men in each. The band of the Primorslly Dragons also passed nae going to join the reserves. Troops were moving along every Toad, officers and order lies gallOping in every direction. All and everything that must be with the reserves was flowing towards Liao Yang in groups and parties. small and great, like little streams flowing into river. To the rear of our house. high in the heavens, hangs the captive balloon, with three officers watching the enemy. There is something un- canny about the immobiIity of the en- ormous sphere-something fantastic and monstrous. No news as yet from the field of battle. Two Japanese one a trooper, have just been brought in prisoners. The trooper wears a very dlgnified air, like most of his country men. The other is Q pitiful sight. en- tirely naked, covered with bruises. and scarcely alive.
 Il a. m.-The fighting has ceased. It is the Japanese custom to give their men 8 rest from II to ? every dav. They are clever and mean to fight in comfort.
 p. m.-At three o'clock a fierce bombardment recommenced. lasting till this hour. At times the firing was so severe that it was even oppressive. one of my friends has just returneI from the batteries. He says that it is perfect hell there. Riding through the town, I met a number Of stretch CTS covered with sheets and under them were wounded. 4 sad spectacle
 D. m.-The cannonade continues. This constant and unceasing uproar. although somewhat duIled by distance singularly depresses one. Tomorrow Will decide the fate of Liao Yang. The cannonade stopped late at night. The first large convoy of wounded came in after dark It was sad to hear tbe groans and signs in the darkness Many of the wounded succumbed be- lore reaching the ambulance.

Investigation of the North
 Sea Affair
CREDIT GIVEN 10 FRANCE
For the PecefUl Plan of Solving the
 DOsger Bank Difficulty-The Dis. patch Announcing the Desire of Admiral ROjestvinsky UnfOunded.

St. Petersburg. Oct. SO.-The world will doubtless take particular satisfac- ton in awarding to Emperor Nicholas, To whose initiative The Hague conven- tion owed its existence, the honor and credit of having proposed an honora ble solution of the North sea incident. which might have plunged Russia and Great Britain into war, by an appeal to it's rules. Nevertheless, the Assn- ciated Press learns on very high au- thority that this diplomatic triumph belongs to M. Delcasse, the French for etgn minister. When the yellow book of France and the blue book of Grea [ Britain covering this incident are is- sued. some very interesting diplomatic history will be disclosed.
 The gravity of the situation, cSpe- cially in Great Britain, where the iu- famed state of public opinion might at any moment have driven the gov ernment to extreme measures, and the danger involved in delay were kee@Iy appreciated in the French capital Frances stake was almost equal tn that of the parties directly in interest. and the very peace of the republic was involved as a rupture between Great Britain and Russia, eveutuating in war, by putting Great britain and Japan in the position of making com anon cause against Russia, would iuev- 1tably result in an appeal to France to fulfill her obligations under the duaI alliance, M. Delcasse, therefore at the very outset, went earnestly to work as a friend of 10th countries to find an equitable basis of adjustment. The opportunity came when Admiral Eo- 1estvensky's report raised a direct is sue of fact

Conferences Between the Russian and

SFitISn Commanders.
 VisO, Spain, Oct. 3U.-Inqu1ries here fail to obtain the slightest condrnIa- tion of the report published in the United States that Vice Admiral Ro- jestvensky has requested Emperor Nicholas to relieve him of his com mand. The Russian consul general here said to the Associated Press thai ne was not aware that there was any question of replacing the admiral. and that he did not believe such a psoposi- Ion had ever been raised.
 It is believed that the internal tionaI investigation here of the North seq fn- cident has begun. 'The British crr. ser Lancaster, which was here for some time yesterday and departed in thr evening, after her commander had con- 1erred with Vice Admiral Rojestvens ky on board the Russian flagship Kniaz Suovarnff, returned tocay and there was another conference between the British and Russian naval command CTS on board the flagship of the IattcI-. Subsequently the Lancaster sailed for Villa Garcia, where it is supposed the British Channel fleet has assembled
 There are five British warshipa cruising off Vigo, evidently watching the Russian vessels here. The Spanish foreign office has given out a statement to the effect that Russia has a. ked

How Japanese Harvest Corn.

The Japanese have a queer way of
harvesting their wheat. Instead OF
ruthlessly cutting it down with
scythe or reaper, they pull up much
OF 1t by hand, and clip off the roots
with shears, for they wish to keep the
beautiful, long golden straws from
getting bruised or broken. With the
Japanese, who do everything neatly
and allow nothing to go to waste, the
straws are almost as valuable as the
grain. They first flatten the straws,
and then. after being softened, they
are woven. either whole or split, into
mating, baskets. hats and many
other articles.
