TO STAND AT THE SUNGARI.
Reported Gear Has Ordered Linevitch
to Give Battle.

Gen. Linevitch has been ordered to make
the strongest stand possible on the line of
the Sungari river is the tenor of a cable
gram from st. Petersburg last night to the
New York Herald.
The military council is Of the opinion that
at all risks the japanese forces must be
weakened and the fertile districts around
,Kirin be saved, even if the Russian army
is to be sacrificed.
Owing to overwhelming disciplinary and
other difficulties in keeping the fleet longer
in one place Admiral Rojestvensky has de-
cided not to await the arrival of the second
squadron.
The possibility that if the Russian army
should be unable to hold the lower line Of
the Sungari river, at Chunchiatsu it may
be compelled to retreat not only to Hardin,
but also further westward along the rail-
road, abandoning tie the Japanese northern
Manchuria and the Russian maritime Amur
provinces as well, is the latest startling
news from the front.
The strategic weakness of Gen. Line
vitch's position as he falls back northward
is made clear by Gunshu dispatch, In
which it is pointed out that unless Chun-
chiatsu and the Sungari lines, a scant hum
will be difficult to maintain a position fur
Their back before Hardin, where, with the
front of the army paralleling the railroad,
the practicability of a turning movement to

late the army 6,COO miles from home Is too
serious for Russian consideration.

munitions and supplies for two years
siege. The correspondent estimates the
number of reinforcements needed to give
Linevitch the requisite superiority in force
at 100000.
Z That such a dispatch should have been
permitted to pass the censor at the front Is
significant; and if Gen. Linevitch has COM
municated a similar estimate of the situa-
ton direct to Emperor Nicholas 1t may ac-
count for the ears increased disposition TO
listen to peace eounsels and open negotla-
tons before the Japanese establish them
selves on Russian soil. With Manchurla
entirely abandoned to the Japanese and
Vladivostok left as Russia's solitary sentl-
mel on the Pacific, it is realized that Russia
will be practically at Japan's mercy In the
matter of peace terms.
Meanwhile Russian reinforcements are
arriving at Hardin at the rate OF 1,2o0 men
per day. Nevertheless, 1t is significant that
there is now we1l-marked peace party at
the war Office -.
