RUSSIAN LOSSES HOURLY
INCREASE.

With General Kuroki's Army in
the Field, Northeast of Mukden, Sun
day, March IL (via Fushun, March
13).-Every hour increases the mag
nitude of the disaster suffered by the
Russian armies. Tonight 1000 dead
are known to have been left on the
field, making the causaltles at least
100000. Between so 900 and 10000
prisoners, some 70 guns and enormous
quantities of ammunition and provis-
ions fell into the hands of the Japan
csc. The japanese losses do not ex-
coed those Of former great battles,
even General Kuroki's army losing
only 5000.
Field Marshal Gyamas plans de-
ceived General Kuropatkin. The
Russian commander misjudged the
positions and the strength Of the Jap
anese. He at first thought that Gen
eral Ncgi's Port Arthur army was
pressing his east flank, and concen-
trated a great force there. This force
lie was afterward obliged to shift to
Mukden, where it arrived in state OF
exhaustion after forced fight, and
was unable to fight
A retreat from Mukden began on
March g. 1t became a demoralized
fight when the Russians discovered
that their egress was blocked by Jap
anese infantry and artillery from the
East. The rapid approach of the JAP
anese was complete surprise to the
Russians, who expected that their re-
treat would be barrassed only by the
japanese cavalry from the westward.
Saturday morning one division OF
japanese encountered several Russian
regiments retreating along the road to
Tie Pass. The japanese descended
from the hills on the Russians, who
attempted to break through the. line.
After sharp engagement, in which
the japanese guns did great execution,
1000 Russians surrendered with their
guns.
The japanese lost 100 men.
According to stories told by captur,
ed Russian officers and the appear.
anee produced by their troops, the re-
treat lacks organization, every battal'
ion shifting for itself.

LATEST WAR NEWS.

The Russians have decided on re-
treat to Hardin as soon as their forces
at Tai Pass have been sufficiently
rested.
General Kurcpatk kin reports that
the japanese attacked his center at
t he Fan river, about Is miles south OF
Tai pass, the outer line Of the Russian
detenses, ard were repulsed, leaving
ID ore than l 900 dead.
Other information from Tai pass
indicates that fanking tactics are
again being employed by the Japan
csc, and the removal OF the press cen
cor eight miles above the pass suggests
Russian fears of being surrounded.
At St. Petersburg the talk IN high
official cireles's still that Russia cannot
acquiesce in any curtailment of her
prestige or influence in the East, and
that unless the japanese cffer peace
terms which Russia is able to accept
the war will be continued with unabat-
ed energy.
The French fnanciers who have
been taking the Russian loans refuse
now to rake further advances, in view
of the gloomy outlook for the Nus
covite; and this action, it is generally
thought, will 60 far to bring about
peace.
The selection of Grand Duke Nich-
olas Nicholaievitch as Commander-in
Chief to succeed General kuropa'k n
has been approved by the Car.

claims against Santo Domingo has been
made, it has been made evident that the
United States is taking the proposed
course only because Santo Domingo has
requested it and not to insure the pay
ment of foreign creditors. In fact, the
changes already made are such as to lead
some Democrats to believe that they can,
with propriety, support the agreement
without establishing a dangerous proceed
ent or extending, beyond the dictates Of
caution aud com mon sense, the Monroe
Doctrine.
The Presiden C ntiEues TO assure his
callers that he proposes to present strong
arguments in favor Of some revision Of
the existing tariff schedules in his message
to Congress, next autumn. The Senate
committee on Finance has already made
prouision whereby it en- hol hearings
during the summer months and thus be in
position to deal with the subject intelli-
gently and expeditiously, when Congress
meets. The House, however, remains I'M
der the complete domination of Speaker
Cannon and has made no provision for
tariff work during the recess while lead
ing members of the lower chamber assert
that the speaker will "allow nc tariff tin
kering'' next winter There are a good
many Republican members of the House
who fear that if the Speaker adheres to
this position all next winter it will mean
Democratic majority in the following
House, but it seems incredible that the
Speaker can continue to resist the insis
tence of the President and the convictions
of a large ajority of the American PEG
pie much longer.
Criticism of the report on the Beef
Trust, made to Congress by Commission
er of Corporations Garfield, has brought
out th fact that the sensational portions
of the support were suppressed, it being
claimed that for the Government to hav'
