A ADESpERATE BATTLE.
Each Side Claims Advantage After Nine
Days of Fighting.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 18.-The news
from the front tonight is more reas-
suring from the Russian standpoint.
The situation is still regarded as be-
ing critical, but General Kuropatkin
is apparently holding the Japanese
firmly on his center and right wing,
even having recrossed the Shakhe
river, and while there are rumors of
extensive japanese fanking move.
ments both on the east and the west,
there is no evidence that they are actu.
ally occurring. An official estimate
prepared at imperial headquarters
places the Russian force engaged in
the battle of Shakhe river at 5000
infantry and $4,000 cavalry, with $50
guns.
A dispatch from the front states that
! the battle was resumed at daybreak
today. The Russians still hold the
right bank of the Shakhe river. Pres
sure on the Russian left has been re-
lieved, but the Japanese are still try.
ing to break through the Russian CEN
ter in order to get possession Of the
railway and cut off the Russians from
Mukden. Sakharoff wires that the
Russians yesterday captured Lonely
Tree hill, south of Shakhe, and cap
tured II Japanese guns, including one
quick-frer.
MUKDEN, Oct. 1.-THE Russian
operations today have been quite sue
cessful. The Japanese, after a ter
ribly stubborn resistance, were COM
PEELED to retire along the whole line,
the trenches being filled with the Jap
anese dead. In one noteworthy large
trench there were counted 600 corpses
of the Japanese. In spite of their
losses, the Japanese were undaunted.
They have brought up siege guns, and
have left no stone unturned to main
tain the mastery of the situation.
Every step the Russians have pushed
forward today has been in the face of
a resistance that has cost the Rus
SLAMS dear. The Japanese seem to be
willing to fight until they are annihi-
lated.

and nervous force is used when YOU take
an alternative extract of herbs and roots,
without the use of alcohol like DR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. This vegetable
medicine coaxes the digestive functions
and helps in the assimilation of food, or
rather takes from the food just the nutri-
ment the blood requires.
Dr.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
purifies the blood and entirely eradicates
the .poisons that breed and feed disease.
It thus cures scrofula, eczema, erysipe1as,
boils, pinples, and other eruptions that
mar and scar the skin. Pure blood is
essential to good health. The weak, run
down, debilitated condition which so many
people experience is commonly the effect
of impure blood. DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery not only cleanses the
blood of impurities, but it increases the ac-
tivity of the blood-1naking glands, and it
enriches the body with an abundant supply
Of pure, rich blood.
No matter how powerful the intellect OF
the resources of intellectual power, it must
be backed up by physical force. Every
day the youth or man must manufacture
pint of rich, arterial blood, that is pure,
stimulating to the brain, and that can re-
build the tissues that were destroyed in
yesterdays work.
DR.. Pierce's Pellets cure biliousness.

Will Continue Fighting.

LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE Japanese
minister here, Baron Hayashi, in an
interview today on the result of last
weeks fighting, said to the Associated
Press:
"The war will be continued through
the winter, which in some respects is
more suitable for operations than the
summer. The next point of real i'm.
portance to be taken is Tie pass.
When this is accomplished, there is
nothing to prevent the Japanese ad-
vance to Harbin.
with reference to the peace proba-
bilities can only say that the desire
for peace is but a natural feeling of
humanity, and the result of the horror
we all feel at the awful carnage now
taking place. 1t should have been
foreseen and prevented. It is not for
Japan to judge if the time has arrived
to talk about peace. This rests with
the government of Emperor Nicholas. "
