tho pigs should DO about Ave months old.
From then on they should be separated

had tho best success when tho young sows

RUSSIANS FAIL TO
BREAK JAPS' LEFT
Forced to Retire From Sandepas
After Losing 1O45 Men.
LOSSES WERE VERY HEAVY

st. Petersburg, Jan. 30.-Instead OF
confirmation of Saturday nights re-
mort that General KuropatlSin had
broken through the Japanese left
there came Lieutenant General SAX
haroff's official admission that tho
Russians had been compelled to retire
from Sandepas on account of their in
ability to carry a redoubt. 1t is also
significant that dispatches from Rus
sian correspondents at the front have
again suddenly ceased which is re-
carried as an indication Of the failure
OF the operation and strengthens the
first impression that it was a demon
stration undertaken to distract the
people at home from the present 5ltua-
ton. In the fighting at Sandepas the
Russians lost As officers and 1000 men.
A telegram from Huan mountain
states that General Mistchenko has
been wounded in the leg.
Lieutenant General Sakharotts re-
port is as follows:
"On January 26 the enemy began to
concentrate in considerable force near
Sandepas, intending to take the offen-
sive. On January q our column on the
extreme left took the offensive against
the villages of sumapu and Paotsia,
south of Sandepas, which were 3ccu-
pied by the enemy. During the whole
of January 27 an obstinate fight was
going on there, and after midnight we
took Sumapu.
"On January 26 another column ad-
vaneing upon Sandepas occupied in the
evening a greater part of that fortified
village; but, coming upon strong re
doubt with triple row Of artificial
obstacles. which has been scarcely
damaged by our fire, which was armed
with field artillery and quick -hrers
and seeing the impossibility Of carry
ing the redoubt without a preliminary
bombardment, our troops left Sande
pas. which had been set on fire, Il be-
ing impossible to remain there with
out risking defeat.
"On January 27 and 2S Sandepas anC
its redoubt were heavily bombarded
while our extreme column euSage'
near Samapu and Paotsia. Details
have not been received.
"On January 26-27 our cavalry, op
Grating six miles south of Sandepas
attacked and defeated a Japanes
company and took 100 prisoners.
Altogether the Japanese must hav
suffered considerable loss"

1eo KILLED IN WARSAW
Attempts to Loot Stores Causes Col

St Petersburg, Jan. 31.-While there
seems to have been a complete res
toration of order in St Petersburg
and Moscow, conditions at Warsaw
continue to go from bad to worse. Es-
Inmates of the killed and wounded IN
consequence of collisions between
mobs and soldiers place the number
at $50. The bakers being on strike,
bread Is at famine prices in Warsaw,
and attempts to break into stores
there have caused numerous collisions
with the military The finding Of re-
volyers of uniform make on many OF
the rioters arrested affords confrma-
ton of recent reports that revolution
ary agitators have been smuggling
arms in anticipation of an outbreak.
It is asserted that the official tale OF
the dead through the recent conflict
between the strikers and troops at
Riga is far short of the actuality,
many having perished in an attempt
to cross the river on the ice when the
soldiers opened fire, the ice breaking
and the water engulfng the fugitiVes.
Grand Duke Vladimir, in the course
Of an interview with the Associated
Press, intimated that the people OF
Russia would soon be given a meas
ure of representative government, al
though he declared that anything like
general suffrage was not to be con
sidered. The committee Of ministers
discussing the proposed reforms has
published a report, with the purpose OF
showing the people that the plans out
lined in the imperial decree Of De
cember 26 are being carefully con
sidered. An unconfrmed report is ir
