STRENGTH OF RUSSIANS
IS ON THE WANE.
Further Accounts OF Fearful Loss OF
Life Via Toxic

Toxic, Oct. 16, II a. MIN the re-
ports of the great battle which con-
tlnue to arrive from the front, the
most striking feature is the terrible
record Of the Russian dead.
Before the severe fighting on Oct. IA.
Gen. Oku's army alone recovered and
buried 2,OO0, making the total number
OF Russians buried by the Japanese,
with Nodzu's army still to hear from.
$500. Applying the usual calculation
and making reasonable allowance for
the fighting of Oct. IA and Oct. Is, the
Russian losses will exceed 10000.
Fragmentary reports of Japanese
casualties are coming in. Gen. Oku,
up to and including Oct. IA, lost $500
men. Estimates of the total Japanese
losses are not possible, but they are
small in comparison with the fright
full losses of the Russians.
Reports dispatched late yesterday
from the field are in the following
chronological order:
The main force of the right army,
which had already occupied Chouchia-
fun Hights, reached a line on the
Shakhe river, but one division of the
enemy continues to offer a stubborn
resistance. The center army has reach
ed its objective and has been heavily
engaged since the morning of Oct. 10.
On the morning of Oct Is the enemy
in front of the left army continued
holding its positions north of Shahopo
and T9O1nOtlO OffariDo
sistance. The center column is engaged
in taking ShahopO and the main body
of the right column is advancing
against Lamuntun and is attacking
that position.
The enemy has six batteries between
Shahopo and Sugangtai which are Wig
orously shelling the attacking column
and our position at Linchienpo, but the
bOmbardment is not strong enough to
prevent our advance. On Oct. II the
left column of the center army lost 261
killed and wounded.
The casualties to ourselves and the
Russians and the number of trophies
captured by the left army follow:
During the five days from Oct 10 to
Oct. IA, inclusive our losses were about
$500 killed and wounded, officers in
cluded. During the four days from
Oct. 10 to Oct. IS the number of corpses
ACAb DJ Tic tItIHg anu DuIleu DN us
reached 2,000 The enemy's dead after
the battle of Oct. IA were very numer-
Gus. The prisoners taken numbered 80.
The principal trophies were thirty
guns and many rifles, uniforms ana
accoutrements. The latter are still un-
counted.
There are some forces of the enemy
on the right bank of the Shakhe river
in front of the main strength of the
right and center armies, but no bat
tie on a great scale has occurred.
''The forces of the enemy at Sha-
hopo and Lamuntun facing the left
army have been offering a stubborn re-
sistance, but have been dislodged and
their positions have been captured.

This increase I'm the expectation of
