The Russian government is think

There is still no confirmation of the

Japan. Japan is gradually invest

an engagement has occurred between

CLAIM A BIG FIGHT
ON THB YALU RIVER
STORY PUBLISHED THAT RUSSIA LOST
$500 In BATTLE WITH JAPS.

The claim is made from Paris that
Russia will have an army of 400, 900
men in the East within the next
two weeks.
Russian troops are concentrated in
the lower Yalu river valley. Russian
families are leaving Manchuria owing
to the DEAFNESS of provisions, all of
which are required for the troops.
The Manchurian and especially the
trans balkal railroads cannot cope
with the demands for transportation,
and women and children, unable to
get trains, are suffering from cold
and hunger at the stations. The
rise in prices Is due to some extent
to the fall in value of paper money,
which in some places is altogether
refused.
