the bayonet.
Early this {Sunday) morning the or
der wasTgiyeu to renew the attack and
the entire column, in eschelon forma-
tion moved on and up against the
heights where the Russians were mass
ed. 1t was one of the
MOST DESPERATE CHARGES
in the history of modern warfare but
the frantic rushes of the intrepid
Japanese could not be withstood and
when the columns were finally halted
to permit the men a breathing spell
the Japanese lines had been moved
forward a good two miles.
This advantage was quickly follow
ed up and before the demoralized Rus
SLAMS could recover their spirits an
other assault and If anything a more
persistenely directed oneJ was begun.
In the meantime large detachment of
picked men had been told off and they
crossed the Hun river and moved down
taking the Russians on the flank and
completing a turning movement in
magnificent style.
RUSSIANS DEMORALIZED.
The blow was well delivered and
within an hour the entire Russian
right was in confusion and their fire
demoralized. Hundreds of Russians
threw away their guns in order to be
able to more quickly retreat and the
entire route was lined with abandoned
accoutrements. Several Russian field
pieces were captured in this move
ment. The japanese left is still NOV
ing rapidly forward and is encounter
ing but little opposition as the Rus
sian troops are too badly frightened to
make more than a perfunctory resist
ance.

RUSSIAN RIGHT SHATTERED.
With General Oku's forces in front
of Mukden, Sunday, March 5.-The
Russian right has been completely
shattered and the troops of the czar
are in full retreat leaving behind
them thousands Of dead and wounded
and large quantities of stores and mu-
nitions. The fighting during the last
three days has been of fierceness OF
character that easily eclipsed any pre-
vious performance of the war and once
again the troops of the mikado have
carried well nigh impregnable posi-
tions at the point of the bayonet af-
ter having first made breach by the
use of heavy siege guns and an abund-
ance Of well delivered shrapnel.
STORMED RUSSIAN LINES.

guards division charged across sec

desperate bayonet charges.
ARTILLERY DUEL.
All day Sunday fierce artillery duel
was in progress and the scene outside
of the city was one of terrible grand
eur. From thousands of cannon a rain
of shells poured into and about the
Russians Notifications and SO close
to the city was the fighting that many
shells fell within short distance of
the ancient tombs of the Chinese en-
perors. AS the shells dropped they
would explode and they tore the
ground so that in many places it look
ed as though giant burrows had been
turned by a steam plow. All of the
Chinese villages south of Mukden have
been destroyed by the fierce Japanese
shell fire and their inhabitants have
fled in terror far to the northward.
The Russian fire is fully as strong
as that Of the Japanese and equally as
well directed The Russian artillery
men are using shrapnel and the white
clouds of dust and smoke from the ex-
ploding shells occasionally obscures

and sweeps and out in earnest for the sea-
sons campaign. The effect of the cold
wave which offset the athletes last week is
nearly all past and the men, feeling that

their daily spins on the old Potomac.

other cities. over in Baltimore the work
Of planning the big regatta continues, and
tomorrow afternoon the crews of the Arun-

real earnest. Coach Harry Vail of the Ariel
club has made his call simultaneously with

The management of this big regatta
aided so healthily by the municipality, is
planning to inaugurate quite a novelty in
the shape of temporary and private boat
houses for the visiting crews. In other
cities the boat houses of the home clubs
are crowded to the limit with the visiting
boats and men. and little pleasure is had
on regatta day. In Baltimore, however,
with the construction of private and tenn
porary boat houses along the course all
these difficulties will be overcome.
