JAPANESE WIN FIGHT.
Victorious in First Serious Land Bat
tie of the War.

tie OF the VAR
A serious battle was fought Monday
at Chong Flu, in northwestern Korea, in
which the Russian forces were defeated
and forced to retreat, with what loss
cannot be ascertained, though the Off
cial report says only three men were kill
ed and twelve wounded. 1t is believed
that the Japanese, though victorious, lest
heavily.
Cavalry and infantry on both sides
were engaged. The Japanese fought gal
lantly, but were so exhausted that they
were unable to follow up the retreating
Russians, who fell back in good order on
Kasan.
The battle came as the climax Of three
days Of skirmishing between the outposts
Of the hostile armies confronting each
other between the Yalu and Ping Yang
News of the engagement came in the
form Of a report from Gen. Kuropatkin
to the Gar, transmitting Gen. Nfsht-
chenko's report of the action This re-
port, as given out, is exceedingly vague
on the matter Of the Russian retreat and
the reasons for it if the loss was no
larger than he admits. 1t is entirely
within the range of possibility that Gen.
given to the press.
1t thus happens that the first report
sent by Gen. Kuropatkin after his ar
rival in the field records Russian de-
feat Oh the sixth anniversary Of the
Russian occupation of Port Arthur. The
operations took the form of cavalry
attack by six companies of Cossacks, led
personally by Gen. Mishtchenko, against
four squadrons Of japanese cavalry,
which the general believed to be beyond
Chong-Ju, but which he found to be i'll
occupation Of that town.
Despite a cross-ire which Gen. Misht-
chenko cleverly directed against the ene-
my he pays a tribute to their tenacity
and bravery the Japanese only ceasing
to fire after q combat which lasted
for half an hour. Before the Russians
could follow up their advantage three
Japanese squadroIs galloped toward the
town, which two of them succeeded in
entering, while the third was driven back
in disorder, men and horses falling. The
fire maintained on the town was so de-
structive that the japanese were unable
to make an effective return. Further
Japanese re-enforcements arrived an
hour later and Gen. Mishtchenko was
forced to retire
