GREAT Battle IS ON
FIGHTING IN PROGRESS ALONG
The WHOLE Line.
Little Definite Advantage Secured
by Either Side, According to
Reports Up TO Tue SdaY-Ren-
nenkampf'S Division Defeated by
kurOki.

Mukden, March lighting is IL
progress along the whole line, the Jap
anese attacking everywhere. All at
tacks were beaten back and the Rus
SLAMS made counter attacks at many
places. On the right flank the Rus
slams occupied the village of Boatatzi
which is close to Sandapu, and from
that position hurled hand grenades
across the intervening ravine into the
Japanese trenches in Sandapu, causing
heavy loss and great disorder.
The Russians have seized the head
of the bridge across the Shake river
in the center of the japanese lines,
assisted by artillery firing of particu
lar energy from Putiloff hill and Nov
gorod hill.
The seizure of the railroad bridge
across the Shake river was the occs
sion of sharp com Dat. The Russians
had succeeded in surprising the Japan.
ese bridge guards, and, reinforced,
beat off all attempts of the Japanese
to regain possession of it.
The Japanese are using heavy artil-
lery in the fight of Putiloff hill.
The losses to the defending forces are
insignificant. The roar of artillery
firing is going on increasingly from
the mountains to the eastward, to the
low flats of the Hun river.
The fight seems to be developing in
intensity along the whole line. Ter
determined attacks opposite Yansing
tung and west of Vanupudzi were all
repulsed with heavy loss.

No Aid for Grand Trunk.

Victoria, B. c., March 3.-Tbe gov
eminent of this province has made no
announcement respecting its railway
policy yet. All supporters are bound
to secrecy, but it is assured there will
be some aid to railways this year. This

ter. The Strand Trunk Pacific, it is
admitted, is not included among the
lines to receive aid, the government
contending that the aid given by the
Dominion government insures the line
without fur Their assistance.

New State House for Idaho.

Boise, Idaho, March 1.-The senate
has passed the house bill providing for
the erection of new capitol building
in Boise. This is regarded as definitely
settling the question Of location of the
state capital. The constitution pro-
vides that it shall be located in this
city until 1910, when the Legislature
may submit the question of changing
the location to a vote of the people.
With the new capitol building erected
here at cost of $3.50, 900, it is not
probable an effort will ever be made
to make change.
