HARDIN IS REPORTED BURNING
Japs Are Expected to Attack vIadivos-
tok Immediately.

Gunshu, March 2S.-The japanese
have apparently withdrawn to the re-
gion south of the Russian front. Cos
sack patrols, which have been making
extensive reconnaissance southwark
found no Japanese within 30 miles
General Linevitch is dispatching scout
ing parties east and west to guard
against a possible turning movement.
A number of Chinese bandits have
been captured, some of whom are Mon
golians.
The impression prevails in some
military circles in st. Petersburg that
the Japanese, having reduced the posi-
bility of the main army in Manchuria
assuming the initiative, will now turn
their attention to the next objective of
the war, Vladivostok, is strengthened
by the Associated Press dispatch from
Gunshu pass announcing the with
drawal of the Japanese from the i'm
mediate front of the Russian army for
a distance of 30 miles south. 1t is real
lied, of course, that this may be mere
ly blind to cover thanking operations,
but it is not improbable that the jap
anese, having cleared southern Man
churia of Russian troops and secured
a position from whence expulsion
would be long and difficult process,
may be satisfied to hold the Tie Pass
line without further extension of COM
munication.
Considerable excitement has been
caused in London by the publication of
a Toxic dispatch from the correspond
ent of the London Daily Telegraph, in
which he states that word has been re-
ceived that fire which started in Har
bin last Wednesday is still burning,
and that a large section of the city and
enormous quantities of stores destined
for the Russian army have been de-
stroyed. The report is not confirmed
from any sources, and inquiries ad-
dressed to st. Petersburg brought the
response that nothing could be learned
there as to the truth or falsity of the
statements. If true, it is likely to
prove serious matter to General Line
witch, as the Russian commander s re-
serve stores of supplies were all stored
by the single track line of the trans
railroad. The Russian troops
at the fornt are none too we'll Supplied
with food and ammunition, and an
other prolonged conflict with the Jap
anese would undoubtedly exhaust all |
that they have south of the Sungari |
river.
