rem sandy stretches on the western coast of Jutland, that spruce and mountain pine, when planted together in pairs, mutually help each other to thrive the valuable nitrogen-fxing functions of the pine serving to pro- vide nourishment for both trees It has been repeatedly observed that where such trees are planted in prox- imity on barren lands if the pine Is cut down while the spruce is still young the latter will die or else make a sickly growth On the contrary, curiously enough, if the pine is not cut down until after ths spruce gets a good start the latter will make better progress than if the pine had been al- lowed to live.

White River Junction. VT. Sept s.
With only two small towns missing

of 6S.
A tabulation of the returns COM
pared with those of 1900 show that
the Republicans gained in eight coun-
aties an aggregate of 99S votes. The
loss in six counties show an aggre-
gate of 1892. making a net Republican
loss of 4i4.
On the other hand the Democrats
gained in three counties an aggregate

REPORTED SAFE
Bulk of Kuropatkin's Force Said to
Be Near Mukden.
JAPS STILL HARRASSING REAR

Both Armies Are Terribly Exhausted.
and II They Come Into Contact the
Result Will Depend Upon Who Can
Throw Most Fresh Reserves Into
Fight.
There Is no news from the Far
East. either from Russian or Japanese
sources. For the world-watchers of the
great tragedy the curtain has been
dropped. and all is conjecture. Not
even an expression of opinion comes
from Japanese sources. but from st.
Petersburg 1t Is indicated that the au-
thorities are confident the critical
stage of the Russian retreat Is past
and that Kuropatkin Is no longer in
danger of losing any part of his forces
to the pursuing Japanese. The Rus
sian commander has arrived at Muk-
den. and 1t Is given out in st. Peters
burg that the bulk of his army Is now
near there. while dispatch from
Mukden to the Associated Press. filed
Tuesday, says that the main Russian
army is pushing to the northward and
evacuating that place. 1t is indicated
that the Japanese are still harrassing
the Russian rear. Further than this
nothing is known. An absolute news
silence prevails.

feet. The slopes were planted in maize,
millet and potatoes.
AFTER opening with shrapnel, the
japanese infantry advanced in arc

convenient point of shelter, they soon
reached the foot of the mountain where
the angle of the slope afforded protec-

"The Japanese guns experienced diff
ficulty at first In getting the range.
Soon. however. smoke and flame showed
where the opposing batteries were
working ruin. Two Japanese mountain
guns. greatly daring, advancing on the
right below the Russian front. con-
cealing themselves in the com. Their
fire in the midst of the Russian trench
es caused the Russian fire momentarily
to waver. Then 1t was renewed more
vigorously than ever. but 1t was the
beginning of the end.
Some japanese crept around, and
wriggling through the corn. burst un-
expectedly on the trenches. There was
bloody fight. Then. as though by
magic. white flags with blood red CEN
tres appeared all up the mountainside.
On the summit stood men waving the
flag Of the Rising Sun aloft. and stand
ard bearers were tearing up the slope,
eager that their companies should have
the honor Of reaching the summit first.
THE Japanese now opened fire upon
the Russians descending the opposite
slopes. while the Russian artillery
turned savagely upon the heights
whence the Russians had been ousted.
'The Japanese losses were very
heavy. The Russian artillery covered
the retreat. Both armies remained in
touch during the afternoon. A heavy
thunderstorm ensued. during which the
artillery of our left wing attacked Dali
dentsu. There was little shelter that
night for the wounded. and all lay in
common fellowship upon mud. drenched
to the skin. The pittiless rain contin-
ued until nearly midday. when a thick
fog arose. When the fog lifted at $50
in the afternoon the Russians were
observed in full retreat. pouring toward
the bridge over the river Jang."

81. Petersburg Retieent.

st. Petersburg. Sept. S-The general
staff Is not displaying great anxiety
over the alarmist reports that General
Kuropatkin is in serious danger of be-
ing cut off. but II they had any infor-
nation from the front Wednesday they
have not revealed It, The members also
decline to say. even If they know.
whether General Kuropatkin purposes
taking his army north of Mukden.
An officer of the general staff said
to the Associated Press last night:
II believe 1t is safe to say that Gen.
eral Kuropatkin's army Is now out Of
danger Our advices since Monday in
dicate that the fighting is Of an insig-
nificant character. and / do not be-
lieve that the tired Japanese troops
are capable of seriously threatening
the line of retreat. The greatest diff
Guilty cur army Is now having to con-
tend with is the terrible roads. owing
to the rains of Monday and Tuesday.
"Our information is that the bulk
of the baggage has already passed
through Mufden. This Is the usual
Kuropatk.n's movements. after all.
must depend chiefly on the tactics of
the Japanese. with whom lies the ini-
tiative If the japanese continue to
pre.e north in the hope of cutting off
the Russians and bringing them to bay,
thcn Kuror@t!;in will be OBLIGED to

haustcd. and If they again come into

rcem fairly well 81 isfiei with the sit

outcome.
The bulk of the Russirn Manchurian

appears. General kuroratkin has been

,"cifr Information on this point. the
neral staff believes tat only small
lar cu"rh is in tie neighborhood Of
"ntci. Tire Japanese are still harras-
~ the Russian rear.
Kuropattin estimates his losses up
40 and including September 4. at 16.-
90. This is considered to be a very
conservative figure. The loss to the
Japanese probably will lie double this
number, owing to their position as at
tackers.
Kuropatkin says nothing regarding
the loss of guns. but II is probable
that some of the heavier emplaced
guns at Liao Yang had to be aban-
doned.

Chefoo. Sept. SIT is now apparent
that the heavy fighting reported by
numerous Chinese refugees as having
occurred before Port Arthur between
August q and 81 occurred chiefly on
the first two days mentioned. the Japa-
nese thereafter directing their efforts
almost entirely to holding the posi-
tions they had obtained. That these
positions were of considerable import
ance Is evidenced by the fact that the
Russians risked the lives of valuable
men in open fight in their efforts to
dislodge the japanese. AS has been
previously reported. the Japanese re-
tired from nearly all points on the
night of August 81.
