Russians Turned the Table on Lte
Willy Japanese,
Met With TerrlficaIIy Stubborn Re-
slstance-kuropatkln's Left Wing
Heard From-Hope of Relieving
Port Arthur Abandoned.

Mukden, Oct. 1S.-The Russian
forces at IL O'Clock Monday forenoon
penetrated the Japanese center, and
1t is reported captured eleven or thir-
teen guns and $50 prisoners east of
bhe railway. At another point during
the day the Siberian regiments took
twenty-four guns.
The Russian operations have been
quite successful. The Japanese after
terrifcally stubborn resistance
were compelled to retire along their
whole line, losing heavily. All the
trenches carried by the Russians were
filled with Japanese dead. In one not
very large trench there were counted
600 corpses of Japanese.
In spite of their losses the japanese
were undaunted. They have brought
up siege guns and have left no stone
unturned to retain the mastery Of the
situation. Every step the Russians
have pushed forward has been in the
face Of a superb resistance thai has
cost the Russians dear The Japan
ese seem to be willing to fight Until
they are annihilated.
Today is the tenth day OF the
battle
St Petersburg, Oct 18.-The news
from the front is more reassuling.
from the Russian standpoint. The
situation is still regarded as being
critical, but Gen. Kuropatldn is appar-
emily holding the Japanese firmly on
his right wing, even having recrossed
the Shakhe river; and while there are
fumors Of an extensive Japanese
1anking movement, both on the east
and on the west, there is no evidence
that they are actually occurring.
Gen. Kuropatkin's left wing has
been heard from. The Associated
Press has the first connected account
Of the four days fight in front Of Tu-
min and Saitchoun passes, resulting
in the final withdrawal of the strong
Russian column which had been sent
to turn the Japanese right, though
Cen Mistchenko seems to have actu-
ally penetrated a considerable dis
lance inside the Japanese line. The
report of the operations of the Rus
sian left wing is still three days old,
and since that time no news has been
received.
It is no longer a question Of Rus
sian Sedan; though all hope Of reliev-
ing Port Arthur must apparently be
abandoned Little hope is expressed
that Kuropatlkin will be able to con-
Jinue to advance.

EVEN TO HARDIN
Russians May Retreat Before They
Stop,


St. Petersburg. Oct 1.-THE official
vail was today hfted from the CHASTITY
tragedy around Shakhe, but even the
official account supplemented by nu-
merous press dispatches, leaves much
uncertainty as 10 the situation. Out
of the fragmentary mass OF in:orma
ton at hand 1t L. possible only to con.
clude that the costly withdrawal and
retreat from Lao Yang is being dupli
Gated upon even grander scale after
more desperate fighting and heavier
losses.
Gen. Kuropatkin's latest report
leaves the Russians still tenaoicusly
holding the north bank Of the Shakhe
river, but general belief Is that This is
only the desperate finale of one Of the
greatest military dramas of history
and that the Russian army as whole
Is retiring towards Mukden, having
suffered at the most conservative esti-
mate loss OF over 10000.
All the wounded are being carried
to Hardin, further north. 1t is under
stood that the correspondents also
have been ordered to Hardin, which in
dicates that the retreat will not even
stop at Tie Pass. All hopes Of the
world-heralded advance to Port Ar
thur have been abandoned.
A remarkable feature throughout is
the popular sympathy with Gen. Kuro-
patkin. Viceroy Alexieff is again
charged with responsibility for Kuro-
patkin's attempt to take the aggres-
sive.

their shoes and stockings and climbed

thinking they were just exercising,
paid little attention to their move

urges the athletes to new exertlons; and if their services have not been generally requisitioned as vivandieres and nurses, 1t is not because they lack the willingness or the spirit. There was a naive state ment last week that certain young wo- men in northwestern school had de- cded to wear stockings of the college colors, blue and white--one stocking blue, the other white. On at least one other oc- easion this fall, co-eds have got involved in a flag rush, with some momentary and negligible damage to their feathers
 Through all the congregations of these accounts 1t is evident that the American college girl is getting into 1t more and more. She is becoming more athletic and thought or two more masculine. From basket ball to foot ball and flag scrimmages is not too big a step for her strong young limbs to span. Perhaps she will yet realize the fantastic and humor- ous picture of Tennyson's "The Prineess:' Eight daughters of the plough, stronger
 than men,
 Huge women blowzed with health, and

Public Not in Rise.

There has been much talk of public participation in the rise which has al- ready taken place. but in solemn truth
 tho great public has had comparatively little share in it. Professionals and semi professionals who compose the followings of the various banks, commission houses and trust companies are the ones who have been the gathers. The multitudes have yet to put in an appearance as native buyers on anywhere near the scale witnessed two, three and four years ago. This Is proved by the returns made to the big private wire houses by their many agents in the hundreds of contributory cities and towns where they have offices. The daily reports made to these wire houses show sheet after sheet of sellers and comparatively few buyers. It Is, therefore, plain that the public has in reality been seller instead of a buyer on the advance. Doubtless in thousands of eases the sales have been of actual certificates which had been carried down through the decline and which had been marketed as soon as the investment showed anywhere near even.
