LAPS MADE MISTAKE

All the war critics seem to be con- vineed that the Russian position at Tie pass will be much stronger than was that at Liaoyang, which was overcome by the Japanese with grea. difficulty and after one of the hardest campaigns chronicled in the history of warfare. While the Russians lost heavily tn the fighting at Liaoyaug and in the re- treat from that place, it is now be- Heved that the loss was not nearly so great as it was made by the first esti- mates. Theretreat of Europatktn. il, is now admitted, was splendidly exc cuted while the pursuit was ineffective and no, productive of the results for which the Japanese hoped.
 Criticisms by the "I tod you soes" after an event are usually worthless. However, 1t seems fair to admit that there Is more than empty words in the complaint that the Japanese attacked the Russians at LiaOyaug before they had their own positions we'll in hand. Itts no secret that the Japanese meant to capture or destroy the army of Ku- ropatkiu at that place. The strategy of the war demanded that the attempt be made. In order to do that it was necessary to make retreat by the enc my impossible, and that was what Oya- ma and Kuroki tried to do. They failed, and they probably did so by be- ginning the battle before they were prepared to cope with the tactics of the veteran commander of the Russian forces.
 The critics, also with some degree of reason. assert that the Japanese are weak in pursuit. They aScr.be the weakness to the iueHictency oflheircav- airy. The correspondents all agree that the superb performances of the Russian cavalry protected the rear of tho retreariuE army from successful attack. Had the Japanese had a strong and effective cavalry force to have overcome the horse Of the enemy and to have struck with rapidity at different points on the Russian Hanks, it is coutended that Kuroparkiu could not have ezutcated himself from the Ljao "a ley, uocwith- standing the Haukiug movement Of Kwoki had been ioiled.
 The escape of Europatkin 10 a stronger position than he has yet held and farther from the base of Japanese operations has made the task the .mik- ado has s=t for his army un,hiuka5y greater than it woull have been had the calculations not miscarried at Liaoyang. However, the fact that the Japanese defeated the enemy a- that place may give them the necessary confidence to perform the work they have on hand as Nukdeu and Tie pass
