Mukden.-A correspondent has just
arrived here after a journey covering
a distance of 120 miles from Sintsin-
tin (east Of Mukden) and says that
during the latter part of his journey
he could hear the firing in the flight
at Liaoyang.
The correspondent says:
1.-The whole country is aflame with
the widest and mCst contradictory ru'
mors.
"The principal interest in the stu
alton Is in the fact that the Chinese
population is becoming more anti
Russian with the advance Of the Jap
anese army.
"Mukden itself is overcrowded and
It is almost impossible to get food OF
a place to sleep.
Everywhere there Is the greatest
uproar and confusion and many fam
lilies are leaving in the direction OF
Harbin. The soldiers. however, are
not at all disheartened at the result
of the fight and they say that the
Japanese losses are so tremendous as
to seriously weaken them. They de,
clare that they have made the Jap
anese pay infinitely more for Liaoy.

Toliio.-No official report of the sub.
sequent movements of Gen. Kuroki has
been received, but the KOkumin says
it learns on good authority that Kuro-

Liaoyang), occupied line from YEN
tai to the mines by hot pursuit Of the
Russians Sept. and 5.
The Russians, who were said to be
concentrated 20 miles north of Lao
yang, are now 'retreatins In the direc-
ton of Mukden. The pursuit was OBJ
structed by the high millet.
The Russians destroyed their stores,
but numbers Of guns and quantities of
ammunition and other supplies were
captured in the fortifcations and near
the railroad station.
The Mikado has congratulated the
forces on their brilliant victory in the
face of tremendous difficulties, adding
that the end of the war is still in the
distant future and exhorting care and
patience.
Preliminary regulations for the ma
tional guard have been gazetted.
The report that the Russians have
occupied Sinmintin (about 80 miles
west of Mukden), is denied.
The report that Lieut.. Teraouchi

of war, was killed in the fighting be

New York.-By compromise

naming danger of a strike by the ell
evated railroad employees is averted
Practically only the drawing up OF
the agreement and its being signed by
the Interborough Rapid Transit conf
pany officials and by the union lead
ers stands in the way OF final ADJUST
ments, which will be done soon.
The principal point gained by the
union is the agreement CT the COM
pany to recognize the seniority and
priority rights of men working on the
elevated road desirous of changing to
work in the subway. In order to gain
this concession, without which they
declared no settlement could lie
reached, the union men gave up their
fight against tiDlosevere medical eX'
mination demanded by Tie company
in passing upon the men to be eiii-
ployed in the subway.
These were the cardinal points ar
gued today at conferences lasting near
ly six hours. Some minor cCnsidera-
tions are left in allegiance. These diff
ferences, which are regarded as insig-
nificant, will be adjusted before the
signing of the agreement Pay for
overtime and division of the working
hours of the men are included in these
details.

Diecreet General Staff.

Ct. Petersburg.-The general stan Is
not displaying great anxiety over the
alarmist reports that Gen. Kuropat-
kin is in serious danger OF being cut
off. but If they had any information
from the front Wednesday they have
not revealed it, and they also decline
to say, even IL they know, whether
Gen. Kuropatkin purposes taking MS
army north Of Mukden.
An officer of the general stan said to
the Associated Press Wednesday
night:
II believe It is safe to say that Gen.
Kuropatkin's army is now out or dan
ger. Our advices since Monday lndi-
cate that the fighting is OF an insight
ticant character, and do not believe
that the tired Japanese troops are cap
able of seriously threatening the line
of retreat. The greatest difficulty our
army is now having to contend with Is
the terrible roads, owing to the rain
of Monday and Tuesday.
"Our information is that the bulk OF
the baggage has already passed
through Mukden. This Is the usual
procedure in the case OF any retreat =
Kuropatkin's movements. after all.
must depend chiefly on the tactics or
the Japanese. with whom lies the ini'
tiative. II the Japanese continue to
press north in the hope Of cutting on
the Russians and bringing them to bay
then Kuropatkin will be Obliged 10
move north to circumvent them.
But both armies already are terri
bly, exhausted and IL they again come
into grip the result will depend large.

throw the most fresh reserves into the

II there is a race northward, 1t Is ap.

situation and are confident Of Its ulti-

Many purists bewail the prevalence
of slang in the spoken language OF
the period. Has it never occurred
to them that in the vast majority OF
instances slang is relatively soft and
harmless, that 1t Is seldom profane.
and that what COMMON speech mas
suffered from interjections OF slang
and cant phrases has been more thah
counteracted by the disuse ot haru
old Anglo. Saxon swear words? Ihus
the language is really the gamer, ana
usage is making much OF the slang
good English. Take any good dic-
tlonary lately from the press, and II
will be found to contain literally hun
deeds of words that were considered
slang and not to be spoken in polite
conversation, dozen or twenty-five
or fifty years ago. Likewise, take
any standard novel of three, four or
five generations ago, which refects
the customs and people OF its PERIOD
