ORIENTAL WATERLOO
The Japanese Victory. 1t Is Declared

TIMES of Europe and Asia.
Capture of Chin Tien Cheng Is Com.
pared to that at Waterloo
and Plevna.

London, May 2.-No Independent ac-
counts Of the fighting on the Yalu have
reached London, and various opinions
are expressed this morning regarding
the Importance of the japanese vic
tory. 1t is considered in some quar-
tiers that it was never the intention of
the Russians to hold the right bank
of the Yalu except for tactical pur-
poses, and that the real struggle has
not yet been reached. All the papers,
however, recognize that the success
of the Japanese will greatly enhance
their prestige.
The Telegraph in an editorial takes
the rather extreme view of comparing
the capture of Chiu Tien Cheng to that
of Waterloo and Plevna, and says that
tho present misfortune is even more
serious because the Russians have
been driven from fortified position
in spite of every advantage conferred
ON it's defense by modern weapons.
The fight, the editorial says, must
modify forever the destinies of Europe
and Asia"

noncommissioned officers and men,
two killed and twenty-five wounded
At p. m. of the same day the bridge
over the main stream was complete
and the army crossing, advanced upon
Hushen. On the same day the detach-
ment from Admiral Hosoya's squadron
advanced below Antung-Sien and
fought at close range with 400 Of the
enemy's infantry and cavalry. The
enemy's artillery also directed a heavy
fire against the detachment, but re-
treated after about an hours firing
There were no casualties on our side
On May 1 at daybreak our forces com
menced cannonading and silenced the
enemy's artillery on the hill northwest
of Yu Shu Kou and at 7:30 all divi-
sions advanced the attack and by 8
