DEFEAT FOR
JAPANESE
One Wing of the Brown Men Report
ed to Have Been Driven Back
With Loss and to Be
Surrounded.

Mukden, Oct. IS.-It is reported
that the Russian army is advanc-
ing. Rain is hindering everything
The rivers are bank full and the
fords are impossible. There are
no bridges. Supplies from all
sorces are delayed. Cossacs have
brought in the captured guns and
japanese wounded prisoners taken
Oct. II. The Russians surround
ed the prisoners, gave them bread
and water and in other ways tried
to relieve their wants. News has
Just been received that the Japan
csc left flank had been driven back
with heavy loss and its retreat cut
off.
Mukden, Oct. 1S.-The continual
vigilance of the combatants and es-
pecially the serious acceptance by the
japanese army of the>Russian advance,
promises further fighting, although
there has been already nine days of
an unprecedented and exhausting con-
fiict. The japanese have been alter
nately testing the Russian center and
right flank, holding the Russians in
monotonous and bitter day-to-day re-
sistance on the line of contact. The
Japanese apparently feared that the
Russian advance would develop super
Ior force of the Russian reserves. The
duration of the contest already exceeds
by several days common prophecies,
as it was believed neither side was
capable of such expenditure of men
and munitions which already is in
excess of all previous fighting within
twenty miles of Lao Yang. The roads
south and southwest of Mukden are
filed with refugees and native famil-
les are trailing homeless toward the
sorry streets of Mukden. Floods have
subsidized. The army is so near the
environs that that city has been re-
populated. All roads are crowded /
with army traffic. Fighting on Octo- /
Der 10th was most severe. Already the |
casualties are reported so great as to
confirm the declaration of leaders that
the present conflict would be the
bloodiest in history. 1t is not possible
to get list of the mortality.
Today to make any close estimate of /
Russian casualties is impossible. The
Russians appear to hold positions on
the plain along the Shakhe river, ex-
tending from the railway to Da Pass
beginning at the mountains, but the |
and tenacity of the fight !
indicate certain situations IN the |
eastern army about which little is /
known. After threatening day the |
Japanese at IL o'clock on the night of
October 10th rushed the village of
on the north bank of the
Shakhe river and west of the railroad,
recipitating laundering cannonade
and fusllade which continued until
the rife fire continuing IN
til dawn. The japanese now occupy
the raised temple in the quadrangle
near Linchenpo, the only eminence
for miles around and which affords an
unusual advantage for observation and
artillery fire against the Russian
right. Several attempts to dislodge /
them have failed. Today the japanese
shells are falling at Chanchiap, near
Paitapo, showing that the heavy and
continuous Russian cannonade has
been effective.

TYBEE CROWDS BROKE
ALL RECORDS.
Capacity of Railroad Was Taxed to
Handle People.

All records We're broken in attend
ance at Tybee yesterday, according to
the figures of the railroad company.
This year S,61S tickets We're sold, not
counting the last train, which carried
d few passengers. Last year the road
sold a total of 3,171 tickets.
In spite of the preparation of the
railroad company for the expected
crowds, the rush was greater than ex-
pected and an extra train, in addition
to the special schedule already ar
ranged, had to be run in the after
noon.
The train which left at $3.50 o'clock
was run in three sections, carrying al
together 1855 passengers. This was
nearly half of the total number car
ried. In spite of the very heavy travel
the trains were run without an inter-
ruptiOn and everything passed off
smoothly on the Tybee branch.
The surf attracted the greatest num-
Der of people, though dancing went on
at the pavilions most of the day. The
tide was high early in the afternoon,
so that the water was alive with bath
ers nearly all day at both paviliOns.
Until late in the afternoon the surf
was an attraction which seemed to
lockers.
In the afternoon three horses ran on
the beach. Grace Blanton, Dorothy H.,
and Reformer. The track was quar-
ter mile. The first horse was owned
by Mr.. J. Furlong, the second by Mr..
Charles f. Graham, and the last named
by Dr. Norton.
In the first heat Grace Blanton ran
first, with Dorothy H. second. In the
second heat the start was declared a
foul and the horses called back Grace
Blanton could not be stopped and as
the horse did not appear for the line
up it was ruled out. The second heat
was then run by the other two
horses, Dorothy II. being the winner.
This horse was declared the winner of
the first prize of $50. The second
prize of $25 went to Reformer.
The following gentlemen acted as
judges of the race: Messrs. j. McGraw,
S. Golinski and r. T. Jollie.
After the horse race the w. o. WIS
and the Forest City team played a
game of ball on the beach. The score
stood to in favor of the w. o. WIS.
This team received the prize of $40 Of
fered by Mr.. Graham, proprietor of
Hotel Tybee.
While the game of ball was in
progress a drunken man stumbled
against a young lady at the pavilion,
and when eXpostulated with by her
escort grew abusive. An officer was
standing near. and promptly placed the
man under arrest The prisoner resist
ed, and was handcuffed after quite a
struggle. This was the only incident
of the day.
There were several hundred guests
at the hotels last night. In the even
ing fireworks were set off and there
was dancing in the pavilions.

USUAL CELEBRATION
SOMEWHAT CURTAILED.
Mr.. John ROurke Held Celebration
of Fourth Minus Costume.

Uncle Sam failed to appear at the
celebration of the Fourth by Mr.. John
Rourke yesterday morning Since the
last celebration there has been a fire
in Mr.. Rourke's establishment and the
costume of the patriotic old gentle
man was put out of commission.
Another drawback to the regular and
proper celebration of the occasion by
Mr.. Rourke was the fact that his bat
terry of cannon was also damaged by
the same fire and it was considered I'M
wise to load the artillery very heav-
ily Citizens who were waiting for the
signal gun failed to identify the cele-
bration and did not get there in time,
thus missing the affair altogether.
The celebration was attended by
Mr.. Rourke's employees and a large
crowd. huge flag hung across Bay
street, the Stars and Stripes waving in
the breeze during the exercises. Owing
to the previous engagements of some of
the employees, Mr.. ROurke was induced
to begin the celebration an hour ear
ller than usual. Standing in the center
of the audience he spoke a few words
regarding the day and it's meaning:
There's only one day in the year"
said Mr.. Rourke, and it is hardly nee
ESSAY lOI IiiG 10 say IfldI II is the

celebrate. (Cheers). Boys, 1 want you
to have good time. (Cries of Yes"
'Yes.'O Though we are lacking in the
usual costume We'll celebrate Just the
same. You all know that this is the
day we got out the Declaration of In
dependence. (Cheers).
Next time We'll celebrate the day
in the usual style. A fellow living in
a free country has no idea of the lib.
erty he has under it.
We will now fire a salute to the
flag" ~
At given signal the three small
cannon were touched off, the echo
lngs reverberating along the river
front. Again and again the cannons
were loaded and discharged, until more
than thirty shots had been fired. Fol-
lowing this display, Mr.. Rourke in
Vited his employees to the shops where
keg of beer was tapped and the
health of Uncle Sam and Mr. Rourke
drunk in many foaming bumpers.

recreation and sport and not much
money was wasted on fireworks.
Northerners in the city would never
have suspected that the Fourth was
being celebrated unless told so. There
was little drunkenness and all in all
the day passed off quietly.
All of the banks and public buildings
were closed during the day and no

For passing a counterfeit dollar, an
Italian fruit dealer on West Broad
street was taken in charge by Bicycle
officer Christie yesterday morning, but
was released without ever being sent
to the police station. as the lady who
had received the money refused to
prosecute. The United States author
tiles may take the matter uD. The
dollar, which is made of lead. is in the
possession of the police.
A lady sent to Fulton's market for
some meat yesterday morning, giving
the servant a five dollar bill. Change
could not be made and the servant
went to the fruit stand to get the bill
changed. When the servant returned
to the market. it was discovered that
one of the dollars was counterfeit.
The Italian admitted changing the
money, but denied having given the
dollar that was bad. The lady who
had sent for the meat, called officer
Christie and the Italian was taken in
charge.
AS soon as the lady found she would
have to appear in court to have the
man prosecuted, she asked that the
case be dropped. She had made all
her arrangements to leave the city
to-day and she did not want to be
detained,
