GREAT MARCHING RECORDS
Japanese Tried Hard to Catch kuro-

BY Associated Press
LONDON, March 17.-From dis
patch to the Daily Telegraph from Sin
mintin, descriptive of the fighting
around and the fall of Mukden, 1t ap-
pears that General Kuropatkin left for
Tie pass on horseback March 8, his
staff following by train the next day.
On March 10 Cossacks began looting in
Mukden and, maddened with drink,
committed the widest excesses and
robberies, and killed numerous civil
ians.
The Russian retreat from Mukden
station was we'll executed until it was
disc overed that the Gordon of the Jap
anese in the rear, two and one-half
miles from town, was nearly complete,
when the retirement became a flight.
The Russian left army, comprising
some 10000 men, according to the
same dispatch, was cut off by the Jap
anese, but Is said to have executed a
junction with the main body at Tie
pass in three days by series of splen-
did forced marches.
The correspondent at Toxic of the
Daily Telegraph learns that the Japa-
nese left army advanced toward Muk-
den at flying speed, and in the last four
days covered respectively thirty, thir-
ty-five, twenty and fifteen miles. One
force was sent especially to search for
General Kuropatkin and his staff but
they had already gone.

ahead without hitting it: that he made
several such attempts before the acci-
dent, and that he then became conf
dent and failed to stop his train in
time.
Passengers on both trains became
wildly angry when they discovered the
cause of the accident, and made a
rush for the motorman with cries of

MORE VIOLENT THREATS
Authorities Notified That Buildings
Will Be Blown Up

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 17.-Con-
siderable alarm has been caused here
and at Moscow by the receipt of
anonymous letters announcing an in
tention to blow up public buildings.
The threat as to Moscow applied par
ticularly to the depots of army stores
destined for Manchuria.
The action of the Moscow commercial
exchange in voting an address to the
emperor on the subject of his recent
rescript shows the extent of the lib
eral movement, only two of the forty
six members present raising timid
voice against the address, which con-
tanned reference to "liberating the
people," Even the two who protested
signed the address.

LIBERALS SEE IN 1T WEAPON
FOR REF0fM
Strike Situation Temporarily Settled,
but Aeraran Disturbances Are
Constantly increasing and
Cause Uneaslness
7y Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 16.--The
zemstvos, doumas, ETC., throughout
Russia are taking advantage of the
imperial ukase issued simultaneously
with the rescript comforting upon in
iividuals and institutions" the right
70 freely petition the emperor for rep
:esentaton upon the commission which
IS celebrating the rescript.
The Importance of the ukase, which
was largely overlooked at the time,
has now become powerful weapon In
the hands of the Liberals, who contend
that it carries with it a guarantee of
free speech and assembly, without
which the right to petition on general
questions would necessarily be farce,
as would also freedom of the press for
the discussion of such questions. They
now propose, in order to test the gov
ernment's sincerity, to organize CLUBS
for the purpose of debating political
questions. The Moscow and ST Peters
burg zemstvos have already voted
strong resolutions demanding represent
tation on the rescript commission.
Aqrarian Movement Growing
The strike situation seems to be i'm
proving everywhere. The Social DEM
ocrats here have advised the strikers,
who are without money and confront
ed with starvation, to return to work
and less than 1000 workmen are now
out. On the other hand, the prospects
of agrarian disturbances on large
scale are becoming decidedly more
threatening, and are causing the deep
est concern. Many landed proprie-
tors are afraid to go back to their es-
tates. The movement has not assumed
a political phase. but it is the old form
of a demand for a redistribution of the
land.
Agitators are shrewdly spreading the
report that the emperor has decreed
such a division. telling the peasants
that the proprietors do not want to
submit, and thus setting them against
the landlords 'in the emperor's name"
The agitation has now spread to Sim
brisk province, where the peasants are
making ready to begin a division of
the land as soon as the snow melts.
1t is reported that the terrorists have
formally notified the government that
they will cease their activity for a
month and await the result of the re-
script.
A story is current that plot in the
aristocratic page corps has been un-
earthed, discriminating papers being
discovered on the person of student
named Verhofsky son of the general
of that name, and another student. The
authorities, however, deny all knowl-
edge of the plot.

Nogi and Oku, operating in the low
hills of the Tie pass gorge, were them
selves sufficient to turn the shattered
Russian army out of the Notifications
which had been prepared for the army
after it should have been withdrawn
from Mukden.
The Japanese are doing their ut
most to accomplish the development of
the Russian army, which all but sue
ceeded at Mukden, but General Kuro-
patkin, with the railway for a line of
retreat, probably will be able to keep
ahead of his pursuers. A constant sue
cession of delaying rear guard en-
counters may be expected.
With lie Pass Go Other Losses
Military men here have but the barest
idea as to where the next stand will be
made. Apparently there are no more
fortified positions in readiness, and the
retirement probably will not stop short
of Kirin of Kuanchentzy, on the rail-
way line, and If the Japanese press the
pursuit the Russians may retire be-
yond and up the Sungari river, there
to await new levies, the mobilization
of which will begin Immediately In
Russia.
The evacuation of Tie pass involves
the loss of the coal mines in that vicin-
ity which, with the Fushun and Yentai
mines there is severe blow. The rail-
way shops at Tie pass and more sup
plies were sacrificed.
A further mobilization has been de-
termined upon, and preparatory orders
to quartermasters, ETC., are already be-

his conviction that Russia still had

foreign credit was recently the subject

if foreign credit was denied her, Russia
would find money at home. The gold

would suffice for years.
