The correspondent Of the Associated

sian headquarters from Tie pass, re
manned. with the rear guard. being
some days without telegraphic facil-
tiles. i, -. : I. 4.
Extensive preparations to carry out
the plan OF retreat were made By
Generals Kuropatkin, Linevitch, Bill
derling and Kaulbars, and were sue
cessfully, carried out. On March 10
Kuropatkin, considering that the army
was safe, departed for Hardin, but,
having subsequently decided to re-
main as commander OF the First
army, reached here today, receiving
great ovation at the railroad station
and acknowledging the cheering by
short speech in which he expressed
the hope that the army would soon
be able to retrieve Its reverses.
Y It is too early to determine the eff
feet of the change in the supreme
command, but private soldiers have
great confidence in the venerable
Linevitch, whose task is monumental.
The reorganization effected at Tie
pass after the retreat from Mukden
incontestibly marked the end of the
second stage Of the war. a.5.A.,,.
Gunshu+ pass, which has a large rail-
road station and Red Cross settle
ment, with all army facilities, is now
an enormous camp, overfiowing the
native hamlet In all directions. Troops
are arriving daily The advance divi.
sions are continuing their march
northward, while, some fresh tro6ps
from European Russia are coming
south to relieve the wornout rear
guard.

The farmers are very much in evi- dence these days, and all of them ap- pear to be in happy frame of mind They are getting good prices for their produce and look forward to even bet ter things next season. One of theT1 told a reporter to-day that things never were better on the farms than at the present time and that if prices keeP crawling upward farming will soon re gain it's old time popularity in Connec- ticut The price of potatoes range from 10 cents to $1 a bushel, milk never was higher, and any of them that has an old COW that has outliyed its usefulness finds no bother in dis posing of it to people to salt down for corned beef. Then there is demand for wood, for the factories find it cheaper than oil and want all they can get of it The same thing is true of everything else on the farm, so that just now, anyway, our neighbors from the rural districts are treading on paths of roses during the daytime anC resting on beds of downAwhen they re. tire for the night. Of course it will be different a few weeks hence when the snow covers up everything and the thermometer will be below zero, but even then if the prospect is bright they will manage to forget about the severity of the weather and keep fields teeming with abundant crops constant lg before their minds.

STALLED IN A RIVER
telephone Officials Go in Wadins
 With Shoes and Stockings Off.

East Hampton, Oct 19.-A large zouring car containing General Super lntendent H. H. Sykes, Assistant F. r.
 Lewis, H. J. Spalding, all of the South &rn New England Telephone Co., and Robert H. Hunter, their chauffeur, ame here from New Haven Tuesday, , nd the officials after having inspected York here, started for Moodus, follow Ing the new line down through Tertia. l They forded Salmon river all right, <hough the descent to the river is &ery steep. The ascent on the south 5ide, is also steep and the water much &eeper than the party supposed, for 1t overed the bottom of the engine and |nbmerged the. clutch and further
 rogress was impossible.
 Wading in cold water in October 6n't so bad this year, owing to the Inany warm days, but this is what the 8ficials had to do, lifting on the ma ! hine and assisting Chauffeur Hunter j Il they could.
 Then, seeing further work was in lain, they forded the river again to he north shore barefooted and hasten Id to Tertia district for help. After leveral fruitless endeavors they finally lecured George E. Hale, keeper of the |own farm, and with a horse and plen- N of rope, he went to the scene. Though the touring car is of about thirty horsepower the old reliable |orse proved adequate and succeeded h hauling the car up oh the bank. With many thanks and substantial |eward to Mir Hale for his work, the Lficials donned their shoes and stock |hgs and proceeded to Moodus and Tome without further mishap.
