'FIeHTINoIs pEsULroRy.7
Battles Not so Fierce as Those Which
Occurred Last Week.


With the Russian Army. Oct. IS (by
courier to Mukden, via Pehin. Oct. 2O.)
The fighting which lulled for time
on October 15, was renewed on oc-
tober 16, when the Russians holding
positions on the north bank Of the
Shakhe river continually exchanged an
artillery fire with the japanese.
The hardest fghting was in the CEN
ter, where two regiments of Russian
infantry made desperate attack on
the night OF October 16. capturing two
Japanese batteries Of eight guns each.
It was an expensive undertaking, how
ever, as the Russians lost q great
many men, The colonel commanding
was dangerously wounded. The Japa-
nese were compelled to destroy their
ammunition. The fighting all that
night was most severe. both sides suf-
fering heavily. During the progress Of
the infantry fight the artillery kept up
a bombardment.
On the morning of October II the
Russian center held positions 12 miles
south Of Mukden on the main wagon
road, while the left had fallen far
ther back to the northeast. Just be-
fore noon the Japanese guns found the
main road and a village, shelling them
with shrapnel and shimose powder con-
tact shells, but without doing any
great damage.
Toward evening the battle lulled. |
but during the night the Russian CEN
ter made two combined infantry and
artillery attacks, which resulted In the
securing Of new positions about half
mile in advance. These attacks were
made during a downpour Of rain. and
were successful In giving the Russians
possession of small stretch Of the
ground over which they retired last
week. sss
Today a long line of wounded is be-
Ing taken to hospitals in Mukden
through a cold and driszling rain and
over a road which is covered with mud
knee deep.
The Japanese today confined them
selves to throwing occasional volleys
of shrapnel at the Russian batteries,
which kept up a continual lombard
ment. /
While the battle still continues, It
IS a small affair compared with that

A memorandum issued by the foreign
Office says that on October 4 body

Japanese forces on the Mukden road,
and that Russians similarly clad ap-
preached the Japanese lines and at
tempted surprises. Different reports

Russians are purchasing large guam

The memorandum points out that

are liable to punishment as offenders
against the laws of war. and that
participation In fgnting without uni-
forms is a violation Of international
usage. an unlawful act and contrary
to the meaning Of article 20 Of the

1t is pointed out further that this
action Of Russian troops will prove

London, Oct. 20.--Discussing the
probabilities OF challenge for the

says:
There is less justification for the
assumption that Sir Thomas Lipton's
regrettable withdrawal means total
collapse Of all chances OF immediate
reopening OF the recent contest. The
recent negotiations on the part Of Ken
peth NJ. Clarke, one Of the foremost
Clyde racing owners, bring it well
within the bounds Of possibility that
he may enter the contest"
Sir Thomas Lipton was shown the

1t was utterly incorrect to assume that
he had abandoned the idea of chalIeng
ing for the Americas cup. He had, he
said. faced great difficuities in secur-
ing designer, but had not given up.
