BOTH ARMIES NOW RESTED
IMPRESSION GROWING AT TOXIC
THAT GREAT BATTLE is I'M
MINENT AT MUkDEN.

Toxic, Sept. 22.-An impression Is
will soon take place at Mukden. Gen.
eral Kuropatkin is evidently preparing
to make a determined resistance to
any attempt to dispossess him and is
entrenching and constructing defenses.
He has an immense force available,
but the opinion is expressed that Tie
pass would be a more favorable loca-
ton for defense The Russians, how
ever, are unwilling to suffer the loss
of prestige which would be involved
by the abandonment of Mukden. Both
armies are now rested and have recov-
cred from the effects of the fight at
Liaoyang. They are in condition to
fight and the weather is favorable for
military operations. The roads are
drying and the Japanese are speedily
restoring the railway. A party Of mil
itary attaches who recently came to
Liaoyang rom Toxic were dragged
for 100 miles in open trucks by coolies.
The army is now forwarding rolling
stock with captured cars and engines
and the service will soon be thor
oughly organized.
of transporting men and supplies to
the advanced base of operations at
Liaoyang is simple.
There is much speculation now as
to the extent of the fall and winter
campaign. 1t is generally thought that
Field Marshal Oyama will continue
pressing Kuropatkin back until the
winter falls and will then strongly
guard his advance line until spring.
The Japanese carried on an aggressive
campaign against the Chinese during
the winter, but conditions are differ
ent in this war.
A renewal of the attack upon Port
Arthur on newer and more aggressive
lines is expected this week and Il is
predicted In well informed quarters
that the reduction of that fortress will
be accomplished within ten days or a
fortnight.
The authorities continue silent con.
cernjng operations there's The publ
cation of small list OF casualties In
the naval brigade operating on land Is
the only recent Official utterance In
reference to the siege.

CHECK TURNING MOVEMENT.
Russians Repulse Small Force OF
Japanese.

ST. Petersburg, Sept 22.- General
Kuropatkin, telegraphing under Tues
days date, declares that the situation
at the front is unchanged. He de-
scribes an outpost fight Tuesday at
Da pass, half way between Bentsiap'
utze ard Sintsintin. A Japanese force.
consisting of four companies, marched
UP from Dziantchan, twenty-three
miles northeast of Saimadzi, and tried
to capture the pass and turn the Rus
sian left flank, but the Russians re.
pulsed the attack and the turning
movement was checked by Russian
cavalry, supported by machine guns.
The receipt of the news at Toxic OF
the march of the Japanese from Dzi-
antchar was the probable origin of the
rumor that Kuroki had crossed the
Hun river, which runs twenty miles
north of Da pass.
The most reliable information does
not indicate the resumption of the Jap
anese offensive for some days.

BRITISH OFFICIALS SILENT.
Decline to Discuss Russian Protest
Against Tibetan Treaty.

London, Sept. 22.-The foreign office
here declines to discuss the Russian
communication respecting the Tibetan
treaty. Russia is seeking to establish
whether the published version OF the
treaty is correct and If SO she will
lodge formal protest at the British
foreign Office, as announced from ST.
Petersburg Tuesday, and energetically
object to its ratification and recogni-
ton by other powers.
1t is claimed by the British foreign
office that it is essential that Great
Britain should have guarantee for the
faithful performance by Tibet of the
obligations incurred as result of the
expedition and it is again asserted
that the permanent occupation of Tibet
is not intended The Russian inquiry
thus far has not been supported in any
quarter. Germany has no interest in
Tibet, SO ii is said at the German em-
bassy here. and it is not expected that
she will take any action in the matter.

Ii is believed that the Russians are
gathering a force at Yentai prepara-
tory to making a strong stand for the
protection of the coal mines.
The Japanese are rapidly changing
the guage of the railroad from New
chwang and probably it will be in
operation to Liaoyang In fortnight.

General Kuroki Not Vet Across the
Hun River.

Hun River.
st. Petersburg, Sept. 22.-The re-
ports that General Kuroki had crossed
the Hun river at Fushun turn out to
be false. The Russians strongly hold
the road to Fushun and Bentsiaputze.
1t is pointed out that if the Japanese
had occupied Fushun the Russians
would have been compelled to evacu-

During the storm Wednesday morn
ing lightning struck the barn of James
Mcintosh, who lives five miles north.
west Of Red Cloud. The barn and
contents were entirely destroyed, and
a span OF mules and a team Of horses
in the barn wee also killed by the
lightning. When Mr.. McIntosh dis
covered the barn to be on fire he went
to the barn t. get cut his horses and
mules. He succeeded in getting out
part of his horses, but the two teams
mentioned were lying dead on the floor
of the barn, having been killed by the
lightning. Mr.. Mcintosh valued the
mule team at s4OO and the horses at
$500. He estimates his entire loss at
$500. Insurance on the barn, 800; on
the horses and mules, $50 per head,
1t is often said that lightning does
not strike twice in the same place,
Tut this is disproven by the fact
that Mr.. Mcintosh suffered a similar
loss two years ag', when his barn,
which stood on the same spot as the
barn which burned Wednesday morn
ing, was struck by lightning and de-
,troyed, though he succeeded in saving
his horses at that time.
