CASUALTIES AT MUKOEN
GREATLY 0VERESTIMATEO

Gunshu Pass Manchuria, April 25.-
An exact statement Of the losses In all
categories In the battle Of Mukden from
Feb. / to March IA, compiled By the
general staff, shows that the casualties
were greatly oyeTestimated IN earlier
reports. Statements from Japanese
sources indicating wholesale captures
OF prisoners, enormous booty and can
non are now denied.
In reality II appears the Russian
losses amounted TO two generals, who
were taken prisoners, and St.17 men,
of whom the greatest part, about $4,000,
were wounded In evaCuatng Mukden
and retreating to the northward the
Russians lost 80 guns, Of which three
where mortars. three old type field
guns with pistol action and 20 quick
fire guns. OF the siege artillery every
gun and all the ammunition carts wero
sent north two days before the retreat
began,
Cen Karkeyitch, the chief Of staff,
calculates that other losses aside from
wounded We're as follows; $1,000 killed,
1000 TO 5000 known to have been cap
tured, and 10000 to 1000 missing, OF
whom several thousand were drivers,
sanitary and commigsariat corps en-
ployes and other non-combatants,
