Report received in the afternoon
of the 18th Of March.
"Our various detachments holly pur-
suing the enemy from all directions
and infllcting considerable damage up

afternoon Of the 10th Of March the line
extending Is miles to the north Of
Hunho and are still continuing pur-

Our detachment which proceeded

THE JAPANESE PURSUIT.
Resumption of Heavy Fighting Near
Tie Pass is Anticipated.

Resumption of Heavy Fighting Near
Tie Pass is Anticipated.
Toxic, March II, 6 p. m.-The jap
anese pursuit of the Russian armies
continues, and resumption of heavy
fighting in the vicinity of Tie Pass is
anticipated. Tie Pass, which is nat,
urally strong, has been extensively
fortified. and it is thought the Rus
SLAMS will rally there in an endeavor
to check the Japanese.
The rapidly advancing armies al
ready are in touch at Tie Pass. The
Russians evidently are confused and
exhausted and possibly are short of
food and ammunition, and it Is be-
lieved here they will be unable to re-
sist strong attack.
Succeeding field reports increase the
extent of the Russian disaster. 1t
will require months to resupply and
reorganize the Russian armies. EST
mates of casualties given by captives
reach 40 per cent. The artillery losses
were specially heavy. The captured
stores and munitions are valued at
millions of dollars. This loss material
ly adds to the Gripping of the Russian
armies.
The Japanese people are receiving
details of the victory with calmness
Toxic and other cities are exceedingly
quiet, and the recent admonition to the
people to refrain from spending money
in celebrations and devote their saw
ings to war charities is being univer-
sally obeyed.
The japanese press editorials, il
discussing the possible effect of the
victory upon peace declare Japan viii
continue the vigorous prosecution o.
the war and has no suggestion to make
to Russia, directly or indirectly.

At Mount Vernon we found the old

that things were cooked properly. We
saw pictures of revolutionary scenes
and men of that period, relics of the days
when George was the whole thing around
there. We saw the bed on which George
died, and then we went down to the ice

Senate last week was one by Senator
Flippin, providing for the better
protection of life and property on
all railroads in the State. The bill
provides, in substance, that all rail

the company; that no employee Of
any railroad shall leave the end Of
his own division within less than
eight hours after reaching such a
point, except in case of a wreck
when a relief train has to be sent
out, and requiring that train dis

and asked the conductor what time we
got to Washington, and then went
back to dad and told him the conductor
said there was no diseases of any partic-
ular account, except smallpox and yell
low fever, and that the first symptom of
smallpox was a prickling sensation in
the small of the back.
Dad turned green and said he had got
it all right, and had the darndest time
getting him back to tho hotel at Wash

and | took the horse chestnut and put 1t
in the foot of the bed, and got dad in,
and | went downstairs to see a doctor,
and then l came back and told him the
doctor said if the prickly sensation went
to his feet he was in no danger from
smallpox, as it was an evidence that an
old vaccination of years ago had got in
its work and knocked the disease out Of
his system lengthwise, and when told
dad that he raised up in bed and said he
was saved, for ever since | went out of
the room he had felt that same dreaded
pricking at work on his feet, and he was
all right
