RUSSIANS RAID
ENDS IN A R0UT
4 Cossacks Lose 800 in Descent on
Japanese Line and Take
Flight.

Toxic, Jan. 14.-The Japanese casu-
alties in the recent fighting at Niu-
chuang snd other places involved in
the Russian raid are estimated at one
killed and fifteen wounded, all non
commissioned officers or privates. The
Russian total losses are estimated at
over 300. The Japanese report that
chuang and Niu chia-tun were not dam
aged.
Russians Fled in Disorder. >,
The Russian cavalry, says one report,
retreated in a tlisordered condition to
North Ta-kao-kan, south Of Niu-chuang,
leaving sixty two killed and six wound
ed behind. Many abandoned their arms
and accoutrementss in their flight. 1t
is believed that the Russian casualties
exceeded 200. g..
French Are Criticized. -
The French are sharply criticized for
permitting the ships OFT the second Pa
cifc squadron of the Russian navy to
make prolonged stay at Madagascar.
Heretofore the Japanese press and PEG
Dle, realizing the peculiar position in
which France was place d, were not dis
posed to judge her actions too severely,
but the Asapi today says:
It is no longer possible to overlook the
French non observance Of neutrality nor
her disregard for the obligations OF neu-
tra1 nation.
Coaling the ships Of the second Pacific
squadron in French ports has eliminated
in allowing Admiral Rojestvensky to re
main for twelve days awaiting reinforce
ments and in the use of Madagascar as a
base of operations against the Japanese
fleet now reported in the Indian ocean,.
Such action is little less than hostile,
and If France is sincere in her promises
of strict neutrality the ships Of the second
Pacific squadron ought long ago have been
sent away or disarmed. " :
Further temporizing for the purpose OF
rendering assistance 10 the Russian yes
sells must be considered a serious breach
ofEneutrality.

F"FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Russias Complaint Against China Filed
for That PURPOSE

Washington, Jan. l4.-Count Cassini,
the Russian ambassador, yesterday
talked with Secretary Hay respecting
the formal and general protest made
by Russia against alleged violations of
neutrality by China during the present
war.
The belief obtains that the action of
Russ ia in dispatching this note to the
powers is intended, not to indicate
Immediate action toward obliging Chi
ma to remedy the matters complained
of, but rather to have on file a record
of grievance against the Chinese gov
eminent which can be brought up for
and during the negotiations which will
effect a permanent settlement of the
eastern question.
st. Petersburg, Jan. 14.-The Novoe
Vremya comments on the Russian note
to the powers regarding Chinese neu-
trality and says it reveals serious
situation that Secretary Hays di
plomacy well conceived at the begin
ming of the war for the limita ton of
the field of hostilities has broken down
under the test Of actual trial. China
Cannot or will not preserve her neutrali
ty and Russia has been confronted time
and again, the article says, by the way
in which Wei-haiwei and Chi-fu have
been used as Japanese bases. In con
clusion, the Novoe Vremya says it is
situation wherein Russia must NJ
longer rely upon international di
pIomacy but must take steps for hel
own protection.

HILL FOR ANTIREBATE LAW

New York Sun Special Service. 49,
3. Washington, Jan. 40 I wish to en-
phasize this particular point in regard
to railroad legislation at this time, and
only this: It is very delicate period
in the business history Of this country
to tamper with legislation affecting the
great common carriers -.
This was the reply of James j. Hill,
president of the Northern Securities
in regard to the propositions now, before
congress. 80. =.
:. Mr.: Hill has been in Washington, for
Of congress and caminet officers.
80 I will not only not oppose, but will
welcome any legislation that will stop
every single railroad rebate, andu l
know of no railroad man in this coun-
try who will not do the same said
the hour, and the one problem that
needs immediate legislation, or, rather,
more stringent legislation than is now
on the statute books. The great ship
pers, of course, will oppose it. AS the
matter now stands, and has stod for
number of years, the practice of rebates
has enabled the trust shippers to hold
a club over the railroads. The more
this question is studied, the more 1T

Obstructive Tactics. -.
Obstructive tactics have been again
resorted to in the Interstate and foreign

early reporting of a bill to regulate
railroad rates. On motion of Repre-
sentative Dayey, the committee voted
down proposition to go into executive
session to discuss closing hearings Jan.

The republicans voted solidly against
going into executive session. They do
not want to hasten matters, yet admit
that the time is exceedingly short in
which to get thru, a rate bill before
adjournment. The republican members
of the committee say bill can be re-
ported and put thru the house at this
session, but they are doubtful whether
1t will go thru the senate.
The democratic members of this COM
mittee are now waiting for meeting
of the full committee, when the motion
will be renewed. They claim that if
such a motion is made they will be
supported by Representatives Esch,
Townsend, Kyle and Stevens, repub-
licans, which will make a majority Of
nine. for closing the hearings and re-
porting the bill.
Adamson of Georgia, democrat, has
not yet stated his position with refer
ence to such vote, but it is presumed
he will follow his colleagues, which
