ST Petersburg, March 20-4:20 p. NJ
Anxiety regarding the fate of General
Linevitch's force continues, the main
danger to them being the Japanese col
umns which are hurrying northward
along the great trade route twenty
miles west and parallel with the line OF
retreat. The heads OF these columns
were officially reported to be passing
Fakoman, thirty miles northwest of Tie
Pass, on Friday. Their appearance
doubtless hastened the Russians re-
tirement which may have become lit
orally a race northWard as once the Rus
slams are headed off it would be easy
for the japanese by a short cut to
throw themselves across the line of re-
treat
After leaving Kaiyuan General Line
witch is believed to have divided his
army, the main portion keeping to the
railroad and the other falling back
along the Mandarin road, which runs
to Kirwin, it being impossible to leave
the latter open to the japanese lest they
be able to creep on the left flank. At
the same time it is recognized that
separation of forces is always attended
an opportunity to concentrate and fight
the army in detail. Some military men
here believe that Linevitch will try to
hold the line from Kirin to Changoun,
120 miles north of Tie Pass.
The first corps composed of steady
troops from St Petersburg and former
ly commanded by General Meyendorff
is covering the retreat which the war
office declares is proceeding in an or
derly fashion
Complete details of the losses at the
battle of Mukden are not yet available
at the war office, but the reports thus
far received indicate that 10000 men
were killed, wounded or made prisoners
and that about eighty field guns were
captured. Almost every siege gun, it is
affirmed, was removed.

Iowa Central Engineers and Fire.
men Receive More Pay.

BY the agreement reached at Mar
shalltown yesterday there is granted
a general increase to all Iowa Central
engineers and firemen excepting those
on the passenger runs, and hose on
switch engines who were already re-
ceiving standard pay, which for the
engineers is So a day. In the freight
service, the scale for operating en-
gines of the 40" and $50" classes was
increased from 81 to $4.10 a hundred
miles; and the 100" class engines
from $40 to $4.20. This applies to
the through freight trains. For the
local freights the scale was increased
from $4.10 to $500 a hundred miles,
except for standard engines, which re-
main at the standard scale. The
gravel train service was put on a mile
age basis, another concession to the
men, with the pay for engineers based
on $3.50 per hundred miles for en-
gines of the "90'' or a higher class,
called the large engines, and 1910 a
hundred miles for those under the
$50" class, such as the 80" and $50
class locomotives.
The method of reckoning the mile
age will remain the same as hereto
fore, which was a concession granted
by the committees.
Engineers are to receive pay for
making up and putting away their
trains at Abba and Monmouth, which
was a concession made by the officials,
This pay is to be based on the usual
overtime schedule. The schedule for
the switch engine engineers in the
Monmouth yards was increased to SO
a day. These are the last of the yard
engines to be raised to the standard
scale. The enginemen on switch en-
gines in the local yards will be given
a full hours pay for more than thirty
minutes work during the noon hour.
This wax another concession to the
men, no pay ever having been receiv-
ed for this before.
The fremen were granted similar
concessions in all the clauses Of the
schedule which were changed for the
engineers.
The members of the engineers com.
mittee are very well satisfied, and
say they received very fair treatment
at the hands of Mr.. sweeney.
Mr.. Sweeney, accompanied by Su-
p~erintendent G. S, Hayden n Master
Mechanic Thomas M. Feeley came to
Oskaloosa this morning.

which blew down on St. Petersburg
today prevented bloodshed in the
Russian capitol.
The bitter cold, by forcing the
strikers to remain indoors. did more

all the industrial districts, but up to
midnight there was no rioting. There
were rumors of collisions in various

they turned out to be false.
The Social Democrats had an i'm

organizations of workmen TO their
suggestion for a political strike to
demonstrate their solidity in the
struggle with their Polish comrades
for automany and to protest against
the execution of the mutinous sail
