LOOTING IN LIAO-YANG.
Chinese and japanese Complete Rus

Lao Yang. Sept. (via Tien-Tsin. Sept. 12).
The looting OF Liao-Yang has few paral-
els in the annals OF warfare. Three forces on
tareo different days had possession of the city
AID Engaged in depredations
When the Russians entered Liao-Yang they
built a modern Russian city outside the old
walled Chinese city, and thousands of troops
wers lodged within its gates. When the Jap
anese drove the Russians out OF Shan-Sam-Po
the Russian soldiers realized that tho town must
fall and forgot ali discipline. They looted the
town, sparing neither Chinese nor European
shops, destroying what they could not carry
away They wantonly destroyed great quanti-
ties OF foodstuffs and other goods ripping open
bales, bags and boxes with ever-ready bayonet
and scattering their contents the streets
Much liquor was found, and the soldiers becom-
ing drunk committed further excesses.
Between the departure of ths Russians and
the arrival OF the Japanese the Chinese sol
diers ana police finished the work the Russians
began. pihaging the shops that were not found
by the Russians
When the japanese came, they completed the
lootlng. Tney had been fighting for Ave days
without iooo except dry rice, and broke loose

the nrst tline On this war that the japanese
were guilty or looting a aptured city, and their
officers were much disturbed by the outbreak
Whep ofoer was restored the Japanese SOL

ST. Petersburg Sept. 12-General Kuroki has
fallen back on Yentai. wnere the main japanese
army is bivouacking. A dispatch from Lieu

date, reports that no large japanese force has
been seen north Of the Tentai Railroad but
that south OF the line there are many large
camps OF japanese.
The "vedmostis's' correspondent at Tie Pass
telegraphs 10 his paper as follows:
The japanese, who had been accused Of NOV
ing forward slowly, are now advancing very
rapidly. Little avails the Russian increase OF
troops, for the japanese are receiving reinforce
inents from New-Chwang. The initiative will
remain in the hands Of the japanese, and their
tactics win always be repeated.
Another correspondent considers il TO be ex-
trernely significant that the Chinese officials at
Moukden have already broken of relations with

THE NEUTRALITY LAWS

=.
II is probable that the government will close
iy follow the course pursued by Germany.
France and China in cases where Russian naval
vessels sought shelter in their harbors The
first thing to be done is to find out the exact
condition Of the Lena, and whether or not need
for repairs actually exists If the vessel is
really seaworthy she must go to sea within
twenty-four hours, She may take on a supply
or coal. but only sufficient to take her to the
nearest home port. and it will be part of the
understanding on which this coal is furnished
that it is to be used for no other purpose
American ports must not be made the basis
of hostile operations against either of the bel
ligerents. Vladiyostok and Port Arthur the
nearest Russian ports to San Francisco, but it
Is possible that this government would recog-
nize the fact that they absolutely closed by
blockade to the Lena, and thus sanction the
departure of a ship for Russia by way of the
west coast of South America, Cape Horn and
the Atlantic Ocean.
If repairs are found to be actually necessary
the time allowed for them will be fixed by the
government experts. and when they are COM
pleted. although it is understood that they must
not proceed beyond point just sufficient to
make the vessel seaworthy, she will be allowed
TO depart for Russia if she takes coal at San
Francisco or where she pleases if she goes out
under her own coal supply 1t is believed at
the Navy Department that the conditions will
not be allowed TO shape themselves so that the
Lena can go out OF San Francisco harbor to
prey on American commerce. even though this
is carried in Japanese bottoms. The impression
prevails that the Lena will be tied up at San
Francisco until the end Of the war. the crew
remaining aboard if the japanese government
does not object, and this is not likely IN view
of the precedent established yesterday in the
case OF the Askold; they Will be comfortably
duartered at the training station on feroa
Buena Island. in the middle OF the harhor. 1t
is believed that the Russian captain will not
object to this as he is probably a refugee and
without hope of being able to keep the seas and
escape the penalties Of neutrality laws until
some opportunity arises for him to carry 'ne
Lena safely through the Japanese blockade into
Vladivostok.

Many other rurnors are probably the out
growth of jealousy, chickering's and irresponsible
criticism OF the defeat at Liao-Yang. but none
are traceable TO an authentic source Never

is the supreme law. sudden changes of the most
grave importance are always possible. Neither
