CUT. OFF 1000 COSSACKS
REPORT A COUNTER MOVE OF
JAPANESE AGAINST RAIDERS.
Trains Target for Guns-st. Peters.
burg Believes II Possible the Iona
Calm Since the Battle Of Shakhe
River ls to Be Broken-Furlou Fire
Against Trains.

Toxic, Jan. 17.-Several papers here
report that General Mistchenko's raid
ing party of 1000 Cossacks has been
cut off by a force of 5000 Japanese,
southeast Of Newchwang, and that q
furious battle is raging in that region.
This news Is contained In lengthy
dispatches from the front, which tell
in great detail that General Oku had
been kept informed Of the activity of
the Cossacks and that he waited until
the various raiding forces had been
concentrated. A Japanese mixed force
of nearly 10000 men, mostly cavalry
and light artillery, was held in readi-
ness at Sunlihem, and of these 5000
were dispatched to the relief Of New
chwang and Newchiatun so soon as it
had become evident that the enemy's
force was gathered at these places.
The transport of troops developed
into a most perilous undertaking. The
Russians had torn up the railroad -four
miles south Of .,ewchwang and the
two trains bearing the Japanese
troops became stalled at that point.
General Mistchenko left a small de-
tachment before the towns and rushed
the remainder of his force to the break
in the line.
A furious fire from field guns was d.
rected against the trains and the en-
cheering party which had been sent
to repair the road, and a fierce engage
ment ensued. Witt a long drawn out
line the japanese commander met the
Russians, covering the operations of
the engineers successfully, and when
the work had finally been completed,
the trains were rushed through a hail
of %shrapnel fire.
Sixty-two Russians were killed and
II wounded, the Japanese only losing
10 men killed and IL wounded.
General Mistchenko withdrew his
force to a considerable distance and
then prepared for a counter attack.
He was evidently ignorant of the
relieving party, for he suddenly chang
ed his plans and made an attempt to
retreat when he obtained accurate in
formation.
The correspondents add that the re-
treat will be cut off and that more re-
Inducements are arriving.
The attack upon Newchwang and
N~ewchiatum occurred on Thursday
last. Three desperate charges we're
made against the towns. several points
being attacked at the same time. 1t
was the evident intention of the Rus
slams to burn the stores kept in these
cities, for small parties Of Russians
were observed towards evening with
flaming torches shortly after, but be-
fore any damage could be done the re-
lief arrived.

According to reliable advices receiv-
ed here from Port Arthur only 76 JAP

ress. This is taken as proof that the
Russians permitted the many wounded
Japanese who fell in the trenches dur
ing attacks to perish where they lay
instead of removing them as prisoners
of war to the hospitals.
Cannot Understand.
London.-The correspondent at Port
Arthur of the Times says:
The total number of soldiers, sea-
men and civilians in Port Arthur at
the beginning of the siege was $4,000.
There are no signs of privation. There
was food sufficient for two months, and
the surrender Of the i.ussian garrison
is inexplicable.
The Daily Mails Toxic correspon-
dent gives a statement to the effect
that all the money in Port Arthur was
divided among the Russian officers and
when this was discovered a bitter feel
ing arose between army and navy,
which feeling was largely responsible
for the fall Of the fortress.
