SURPRISED THAT JAPS
DID NOT PURSUE THEM

Mukden, Sept. Is, via St Petersburg,
Sept. 16, 1925 a. m.-The panicky con-
ditions prevailing Immediately after
the battle of Lao Yang have entirely
disappeared from the Russian army
now concentrated here. Business has
been resumed and the city is quiet.
The Russo-Chinese bank has re-
opened.
The failure of the Japanese to fol-
low up the advantage gained at Lao
Yang has caused surprise here. An
Independent authority, who accom-
panied the rear guard from the posi-
tions south of Lao Yang to Mukden
says that this failure is accounted for
by the fact that the Japanese lost 40
900 killed and wounded in one days
fghting and that, besides, they were
too tired to continue the advance.
The Japanese are reported to be en-
trenching around Lao Yang and to
have repaired the bridge over the
Taitse river.
Twelve thousand soldiers wounded at
Lao Yang have been treated at the
Red Cross hospital here.

Its Course.

Halifax. N. s., Sept ia fortu-
destruction by fire to-day. Neverthe-
less. the city suffered a loss of half
a million dollars in the business part
of the water front. and the progress
of the flames was only stayed by the
dynamiting of a dozen buildings by
the sailors from the fleet and soldiers
from the garrison.
The fire consumed six wharves, two
coal piers, two hotels, a dozen ware
houses and a number of retail shops.
During the fire a large tree fell. kill
ing Flora Ring. rs years old, and
wounding two others.
The entire city fire department was
engaged at the fire.
Admiral Sir Archibald Douglass per-
sonally directed the sailors in protect
ing imperial property and two hundred
marines patrolled the streets.
One fireman was fatally injured by
a live wire. while another was badly
hurt by falling slate.
The burned district. which covered
about two acres, was one of wooden
buildings three and four stories high
many of them built years ago when
Halifax merchants dealt heavily in
fish. The buildings were saturated
with fish oil and burned fiercely.
Then came the providential shift OF
wind. BY this time the government
officials had assumed full charge of the
situation, for not far ahead was the
big ordnance yard with thousands OF
tons of powerful explosives. A party
of sailors together with a company OF
royal engineers landed to the north OF
the fire, and began blowing up build
ings. For an hour the entire city
shook with the terrific explosions.
More than a dozen buildings were
leveled, and at Z o'clock the fire had
reached the cleared space where II
