Skirmish in Korea Results in
Defeat of Cossacks'
FIRE WAS MOST CALLING
At One Time the Japanese Were
Forced Back, But Returned win
Renewed Energy and Finally
Forced Russians to Retire.

An Associated Press dispatch from
St. Petersburg says: General kuro-
patkin, in his first dispatch to the en-
peror from the scene of war, announc'
ed that offensive land operations mad
taken place against the Japanese upon
the sixth anniversary of the occupa'
ton Of Port Arthur by the Russians.
The operations took the form OF a
cavalry attack Monday by six compa'
nies of Cossacks, led personally by Gen.
eral Mishtchenko, against four squad
rons of Japanese cavalry, which the
general believed to be beyond Chong
Ju, but which he found to be in occu-
patton of that town.
Despite a cross fire which General
Mishtchenko cleTerly directed against
the enemy, he paid tribute to their
tenacity and their bravery, the Jap
anese only ceasing fire after a COM
bat which lasted for half an hour. Be-
fore the Russians could follow up their
advance, three Japanese squadrons
salloped toward the town, OF which
two squadrons entered, while the
third was driven back in disorder,
men and horses falling.
The fire maintained on the town was
SO destructive that the Japanese
were unable to make sn effective re-
turn.
Further Japanese reinforcements ar
rived an hour later. and, In view OF
the superiority of the enemy, General
M:shtchenko determined to retire. DO
ing so without embarrassment, al
though he carried with him three kill
ed and sixteen wounded.
General Mishtchenko's Cossacks
have been endeavoring, for some days
to come in contact with the Japanese
patrols, but the latter refused to
fight.
The skirmish of Monday will have
The effect of encouraging the Russians
to retard as much as possible the
advance of the Japanese army.
General Kuropatkin's dispatch re-
porting General Mishtchenkos opera
tons as published does not give the
place of it's origin. but it is presumed
that the commander in chief Is either
at Liao Yang or en- route to Niu-
chwang.

CASUALTIES OF CONFLICT
Between japanese and Cossacks on
Korean Soil as Contained in Re-
port to St. Petersburg.

The Japanese legation in London
has received the following official re-
mort from Toxic Of the fighting be-
tween Japanese and Russian forces
at Chong-Ju, Korea, on Monday:
On March % portion of our caVa-
~ and infantry forces occupied Cnons'
In arter defeating the enemy. Tne
enemy, who numbered about six hun
dred men, retreated in the direction Oh
Win. Our casualties were Lieut.. ka-
no and four others killed; Captain ku
rowaka and twelve others wounded, OF
the cava!iy force.
There were no casualties among our
infantry. Two dead bodies were lett
by the enemy on the field, but 1t IS
reported that some seven or eight
we're killed inside the town. Tnose
were promptly carried off by the enc
nv on horseback or in ambuGances.
The Russians were seen conveying ln
an ambulance two dead men, appa-
rentlv officers and bloodstained band
ages were found scattered around.
The enemy must have sustained
losses at least equal to our own.
A St. Petersburg special says: A
later dispatch from General Mlsht-
chenko reports that on the authority
of the inhabitants Of Chong Ju, Korea,
the Japanese lost forty men killed, one
hundred men wounded and q number
of horses during the fighting there
Monday. The Japanese employed FIVE
hundred Koreans to carry their
wounded to Aniu. General Misht'
chenko adds that Captain Stopanoff
also was among the Russians wound
ed and died Tuesday.
The above, which was dated March
20, was forwarded to the emperor by
General Kuropatkin.

ADMIRAL TOGO REPORTS.
Jan Gives Details Of Latest Attempt
to Bottle Port Arthur.

Jan Gives Details OF LATEST AttsH"P'
to Bottle Port Arthur.
Admiral Togo's recital Of the sec,
oud attempt to bottle up the Port Ar
thur SQUADRON and the sixth attack OF
that mort was received in Toxic, ia
pan, Tuesday, says a special dispatcn'
Admiral Togo's report, Ia part, Is as
follows:
.The united squadron again left FOR
Port Arthur last Saturday. On Sun
day morning at $3.50 we commenced
+ preparations for blocking the haroor
entrance. The four steamers which
were to be sunk escorted by a no.
tilla of torpedo boat destroyers' ao'
vanced to the entrance, facing the enc
my's searchlights. About two miles
from the entrance the bottling up
souadron was discovered by the enc
nv. Exposed to the fire OF the 1or-
tresses on either side and also 70
that from the enemy's ships on guard.
and Drawing these dangers, the rour
steamers ran into the waterway 2t
the mouth of the harbor. One OF the
steamers, the Chyo Maru-anchoreo
about half a chain from the western
shore, Of Golden Hill blew itself lp
and sank. Thes second one, the hu'
kui Maru, passed to the left OF the
Chyo Maru and advanced a short dis
tance when she was struck by tor
pedo from the enemy's destroyers.
She sank in that position. The third
one. the Yah'ko Maru, went to the
left Of the F'ukui Maru and blew her.
self up and sank. The fourth steam
er, the Yoneyma Maru, reached tho
harbor entrance and colliding against
the stern Of one of the enemy's torpe'
DO destroyers, she managed to reach
the middle passage by passing be-
tween the Chyo Maru and Fukui Ma
ru. Just at that moment one OF the
enemy's torpedoes struck and sank
her. Her momentum brought her to-
ward the left shore and with her bow
toward the left side she sank sidewise.
To have accomplished the work so
far under grear disadvantages and dan
gers must be cons dered a success and
should command admiration. It is to
be regretted, however, that owing to
some space being left between Yahiko
Maru and the Yoneyma; complete
blocking Of the entrance has not been
effected. The vessels engaged in this
work are those which mad been ell
gagged in the same work before. 1t was
by their special request. Only petty
officers and crews were supplanted by
new men.
The casualties follow: Killed, Com
mander Hiroz and three petty officers;
mortally and seriously wounded, Lieu
tenant Shimada; slightly wounded.
Lieutenant Masuki, Engineer kurita
and six petty officers and men.
All the remainder OF the crews were
safely picked up by our destroyers."

"YMIGRESSING here for moment"
 U said the distinguished lecturer,
 'let us consider what we might call the malevolence of nature. Did you ever reflect upon the fact that nearly all the natural forces, if left to their operation unresisted, work for our destruction? Fire, or heat, kills the principle of life. Cold, or the ab- sence of heat. does the same thing. The natural gases are fatal to life. Gravity is one of the most destructive of forces. A fall from any considera- ble height will kill instantly. Water, whose praises the poets sing, is equal ly destructive. If we fall into deep water we drown unless we have learn ed how to resist that same fatal force of gravity by acquiring the art of swimming. Even the simple act of walking is the perpetual recovery from an incipient fall. The things we crave most are injurious to us There are a hundred poisons for every remedy. We get disease for nothing, but we have to pay for good health. The air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat arc full of deadly germs Life is a constant struggle against the malignity of nature. Yet we are told to look upon the bright side of things What is the bright side?'
