lengthy dispatches received from Gen

The dispatch OF March says:

were dislodged by our counter attack.

For three days previous to the gen
era1 attack the japanese bombarded
the whole Russian line with heavy ar
tillery. The assault was then begun
and has lasted more than thirty hours.
Yesterday the japanese Imperial
Guards made a desperate attempt to
capture Putiloff Hill, the supposed
key to the Russian position and other
fortified positions around Kwanshan.
The attack was made at daybreak.
under cover Of snowstorm. Putilon
Hill had been terribly ripped and torn
by japanese 11-inch shells, but when.
in the midst OF binding whirl-
wind Of snow, the Mikado's men ad-
vanced to the attack, the Russians,
who had been driven 10 shelter, re-
turned to the trenches and poured de-
structive volleys into the ranks Of the
stormers.
Determined as was the Japanese at
tack the rapid fire of the Russians
drove the Mikado's guards back in
confusion with heavy losses. Time
after time they advanced on the
coveted position and several times the
opposing troops engaged in furious
bayonet melees.
When the snowstorm cleared away
the japanese were retiring upon their
own lines and the Russians still held
Putiloff Hill.
Although the lighting has now been
in progress six days, the officers here
are mystified as to whether the actions
at the wings are not being demonstra-
uons to facilitate the chief object of
the Japanese to break through the Rus
sian center or If it is Field Marshal
Oyama's intention to turn Mukden.
One of General Kuropatkin's staff Of
ficers said:
"Oyama's strategy is to break the
center and then inclose the wings and
compel a demoralized retreat, but un-
til now the Japanese attacks against
the center have been only measureably
successful. Salinpu, which is the key
70 our position on the right flank, was
the scene of awful carnage last night
The Japanese concentrated on it the
fire of more than 100 guns and then at

to the reports coming in they were re-

Already Fallen.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 4.-The
battle raging at the front has assumed
enormous proportions. Already one
correspondent places the Russian
losses at $4,000 men and those Of the
Japanese at 10000. II Is added that
the attempt to draw a net around Cen
eral Kuropatkin has not yet succeed
ed. but it is stated that the Japanese
from Sinmintin are attempting, by
forced marches. to cut the Russian
line of communications.
General Kuroki, according to the
latest reports, is stalled by the Rus
sian left. but the Russian center Is
yielding slowly before the japanese on
slaughts.
On Thursday, Field Marshal Oyama
shifted the weight to his left. seeking
to envelop the Russian right eight
miles southwest OF DIukden- In the
hand-to-hand fighting which followed
and continued for four hours the loss
or both sides was enormous.
But the most serious news is the re-
port that the Japanese attacking col
umn at Sinmintin, about thirty miles
west of Mukden, has divided. part OF
it moving straight east to roll up the
Russian right wing, while the other Is
making forced marches north with the
evident purpose of cutting the Russian
line Of communications with Tie Pass
and closing the line Of retreat. Should
the operation prove successful, the
Russian army might be surrounded.
During the fighting at Sanlinpu on
Friday the Russians were facing only
a division and half of the four Jap

EVOLUTION OF AwonAN ORATOR.

Grasp your small opportunities
as they fly and become a feminine
Depew. You will never be a Fed
Grafton president if you don t
seize them" declared Mrs. John F i.
Yanger to elubwomen at the
Waldorf-Astoria.
Mrs. Yanger described the evo-
luton Of a woman orator as follows:
"The first time she is asked to
speak her knees knock together,
her teeth chatter, she can't see a
foot in front of her, and when
she sits down she doesn't know
what she has said. The women
around her, however, smile and
say: That was lovely, dear
"The next time she thinks out
what she is going TO say. She
wears out the encyclopedia in
writing her first papers, and learns
later that she has thoughts that
she needn't look up. 1t is when
she is club president that she
finally gets her diploma. She tells
funny stories and has just the
word apropos to say of each
speaker at the long guest table at
the clubs festivals. The members
before her listen delightedly, lean
back in their chairs and say as one
woman.
