st. Petersburg, Jan. 31.-General
Kuropatkin's attempt to break through

Field Marshal Oyama's position on the
Shakhe river seems to have failed en-
tirely. Few details, however, are

tanned in the official dispatches. Field
Marshal Oyama, as at the battle of the
Shakhe river, appears to have an
swered the Russian advance with q
counter offensive movement, but no
great disposition was shown to carry
the war far into the territory held by
the Russians.
General Mishtchenko and General
Kondratovitch. while not seriously in
tured, have been obliged to relinquish
their commands. There is no official
estimate Of the losses. but it is eX-

sides were killed or wounded.

the fighting at Chenchiehpao and Hell
