FATE OF THE RUSSIANS.
st. Petersburg Officials Fear Another
Turning Movement.

st. Petersburg, March 20.-Anxiety
regarding the fate of Gen. Linevitchs
forces continues, the main danger to
them being the Japanese columns
which are hurrying northward along
the great trade route, twenty miles
west of parallel with the line of re-
treat. The heats of these columns
were officially reported to be passing
Fakoman, thirty miles northwest of
Tie Pass, on Friday. Their appear
ance doubtless fastened the Russian
retirement, which may now have be-
come literally a race northward, as
once the Russians are headed it would
be easy for the Japanese, by a short
cut, to throw themselves across the
line of retreat.
After leaving Kaiyuan, Gen. Line
witch is believed to have divided his
army, the main portion clinging to
the railroad and the other falling
back along the Mandarin road, which
runs to Kurin, it being impossible to
leave the latter open to the Japanese,
lest they then be able to creep up on
the left flank. At the same time it
is recognized that separation OF
forces is always attended with the
danger of giving the enemy an oppor
tunity to concentrate and fight the
army in detail. Some military mer
here believe that Linevitch will try
to hold the line from Hirin to Chan
goun, 120 miles north of Tie Pass.

incident except for the removal of the

gaging in occasional skirmishes. 1t

seven miles north of Tie Pass. The
Japanese are slowly advancing with

course of the retreat the Russians are
destroying bridges. the railroad road
bed and highways. and carrying off
stores and demolishing buildings and
everything not portable. Reports of
a wide turning movement by the Jap
anese are no longer being received.
The troops parted with sadness
with Gen. KuropatlSin, whose labors
in shaping the army are recognized,
and who was ever attentive to the
wants of the soldiers in the matter
Of food, clothing and shelter. Re-

A "FEELER" FOR PEACE.
How the ST. Petersburg Interview is
Regarded In Washington.

Regarded In Washington.
Washington, March 2O.-Govern-
ment officials whose constant hope il
for peace are much encouraged by dis
patches from st. Petersburg quoting
minister on the terms on which the
war might be ended His suggestions
OF Russia's complete withdrawal from
Manchuria, except for, the line of the
Siberian railroad to Vladivostok, of
the cessation to Japan as indemnity
of the Chinese Eastern railroad, and
its subsequent administration under
an international agreement, together
with Japanese control of Corea and
Japanese interests on the Lao Tung
peninsula, are regarded here as rea.
sonable
The most encouraging thing to Of
ficials here is that the terms above
referred to are in line with the de.
sires of the powers. 1t is realized
that there will be strong party in
Japan which will urge the gaining OF
as much as possible of the spoils of
war, but it is hoped that wiser coun.
sells in direction of permanent peace
will prevail, just as it is hoped peace
full influences will overcome the war
party at st. Petersburg. By one man
familiar with the diplomacy of the sit
uation, the belief is expressed that
the dispatch of this morning was q
'feeler" for peace, soon to be followed
by something more definite.

Some Of the oldest residents in
Lauderdale county say the public
roads have been worse since they
thawed out than was ever known be-
fore, owing to the fact that they
were not worked last year as much
as usual. The present system about
road working is not satisfactory,
and it has been decided not to take
any steps in that direction but wait
on the legislature and see if some
thing could not be done to improve
the present conditions.
