SLAUGHTER WAS FRIGHTFUL
RUSSIAN LOSSES IN PRESENT EN-,
4. GAGEMENT RUN FAR INTO
Ts THE THOUSANDS.

st. Petersburg, Oct. ia dispatch
from General Sakharoff, sent at
o'clock Friday morning, explains more
of the operations of Oct. IL and Is,
from which it appears that the Russian
center was due north of the Yentai
mines, the right running west a short
distance beyond the railroad and the
LETT sweeping sOutheastward toward
Bensihu. The real bloody work did
not begin until Wednesday, when the
Japanese made series of determined
attacks on Sialiuhedzy, about seven
miles north of Yentai, out the Russians
held off their assailants. In the mean.
time, however, the extreme right was
forced back, thus compelling kuropst-
kin to slightly draw back his line
above Yentai in order to preserve Its
alignment. On the extreme left, after
a Determined resistance, the Russians
succeeded in carrying the rocky
heights and Hua pass north of Ben
sihu, but the arrival of Japanese rein
forcements made it impossible for tn !.
Russians to press their advantage
here and as the LETT was now too lar
advanced it also was withdrawn SOM
distance. Reports from the left, how
ever, only bring the situation up to
Thursday afternoon. 4...
A high officer of the general staff
tells the Associated Press that the sit
uation, while critical, is not desperate.
Kuropatkin is keeping his head and
acting cautiously, as is shown by his
withdrawal Of both, wings in the hope
that the Japanese assaults will ex'
haust themselves. He says the slaugh-
ter was frightful. No estimate of the
losses is yet possible, but they run
far into the thousands, The losses
were especially heavy on the Russian
left and center. In a single regiment
out of over hundred officers only
eight escaped.

The only direct news of the days
fighting in Manchuria is contained in
an official report from Marshal Oyama
to Toxic that the battle is raging along
almost the entire front and that the
Japanese are making satisfactory
progress" Beyond this the dispatches
relate entirely to the developments Of
Wednesday and Thursday. They make
1t plain that the battle is of the most
desperate character, the fighting ex-
ceeding in fierceness the terrific COM
bat at Liaoyang. The losses on both
sides are undoubtedly heavy, but sno
