already far greater than were the
casualties in the battle of Lao Yang,
and are likely to increase as the days
pass before the issue is fully decided
Beginning at 2 o'clock a. m, the
japanese made succession of desper-
ate attacks on General Tserpitsxy' S
division on the west front south of
Mukden, repeating the assault at in
tervals of two hours with constant
reinforcement. About so, 900 japanese
with 200 pieces of artillery, partici-
pated.
All the attacks were repulsed, there
being enormous losses on both sides.
One extremely important position
changed hands several times. Finally
General Tserpitslxy on horseback, plac-
ing himself at the head of his troops
led his regiment to the attack with
colors flying and music playing. The
attack was successful. After it was
over the victorious soldiers crowded
around General Tserpitsky shouting
his praises and even kissing his hands
and feet. The Russians captured sew
eral quick fire guns and many Japa-
nese prisoners including officers.
1t was reported that Major General
Gerngross of the East Siberia rifles to-
ward evening had taken and held Tat
chekiao. Here and there to the nOrthWard
the Russians many times attacked by col
umnS and battaliOns. storming positions
with the bayonet and without firing
shot. Foreign correspondents and military
attaches found language inadequate to ex-
press their admiration at the hero1sm OF
the Russian troops.
All last night and today Japanese pris-
oners have been arriving in Mukden from
the west front The majority of them are
wounded and all appear downcast and
ravenous, many of them crying.
Monday night the Japanese attacked
Yenheitun, Alanpu. and Erthtatitzu, and
also made four furious attacks on the viii
1age of Iuhuantun early this morning. On
the fourth attack the Japanese were tenn
porarily successful in driving out the Rus
slams and rushed directly toward the field
kitchens, where the morning meal was be-
ing prepared and commenced to bolt the
food. The Russian troops, however. with
a shout of Save our dinner, brothers,
fell on the Japanese like hurricane and
drove them out of the village at the point
OF the bayonet.
A captured japanese said they had had
nothing to eat since Sunday and that they
had been told this morning either to cap
ture the Russians dinner or starve.

The Crescent team is captained by

the Topeka team won at Abilene last

the Southwestern league and was i'm
mediately challenged by Topeka, the
game to be played either at Wichita,
EimpOria or Topeka. Wichita refused
to roll the contest and as Oklahoma

cham piOnship of Oklahoma.

caps of the Topeka team if they

composed of the pick of Kansas City's

handicap of being on foreign alleys

Crescents will bowl a return match in

favorably. It's long duration was ex-
peeted and it will probably continue
several days more before it is concIud-
ed. The Japanese forces have reached
nearly to Mul1den, within two miles of
the railway and are bombarding
strongly.
The Russians everywhere are making
a desperate resistance, frequently try
ing offensive operations and arranging
every defensive device of modern war
fare The fighting resembles a siege
more than a field battle The past two
nights there has been hard fighting in
front and east of Witosan. The infan-
try were closely engaged while the Rus
sian batteries shelIed the trenches and
star shells were used to illuminate the
battle field Hand grenades are en-
ployed freely in close fighting.
Last night Russians attempted to
break the japanese line by crossing the
river west of Witosan, but they We're

It was quiet on this front today with
the execution of some artillery work

flags were raised in order that the

busy for several hours.

about freely for the first time IN seNefal
