Disorganized Mob is Fast

Army,
JAPANESE PURSUIT. is SLOW
There is Probability Howeven.
That the Japanese Have U ndertaken
a Thanking Movement Against Tie
Pas. Which May Be Effective.

Tie Pass, March 15.-As after the
battle of Lao Yang, the advance OF
the Japanese army against the new
positions of the Russians at Tie Pass
is very slow. The leading columns
are eight or ten miles southwark, and
In touch with the Russian van posts,
but the operations at present are not
serious. Field Marshal Oyama shows
slight intentions Of pressing his adj
vantage in an immediate attack on
Tie Pass. 1t is possible, however,
that wide turning movement OF
which reports are current is in prog
ress. In such operations the Japanese
have the immense advantage Of
several bases and lines CT supply to
which is now added the Sinmintin
road, while the Russian army neces-
sarily is dependent on one base and
one line of communication and there
fore may easily be outtianked.
In the grand army order is MAX
ing out Of chaos with remarkable
celebrity. The plan in front Of Tie
Pass, which on March II, seethed
like nest of ants with the dense and
confused mass OF transports, artillery
and troops, corps divisions and regi-
ments being scattered and parties in
extricably mingled, has been cleared,
the regiments reorsanized, strasglers
sent to their respective commands,
organizations taken there assigned
positions and today the same soldiers,

1t is unfair to accuse the entire
army Of this panic. General Line

ments in perfect order with music

scarcely a straggler was lost in the

wagon drivers were mingled with the

FRENCH BANKERS REVOLT.
Action May Be Helpful in Bringing
Early Peace.

Early Peace.
London. March 15.-The Daily
Mail declares that the French gov
eminent has given the Partisan bank
ing houses clearly to understand that
they must not conclude the proposed
Russian loan unless Russia is pre-
pared to negotiate for peace.
London, March 15.-The revolt CT
the French bankers is considered by
the London newspapers as the most
hopeful and important news of the
day, promising an early conclusion of
peace between Russia and japan. Ap.
parently, the proposed loan has not
been absolutely refused, but only
postponed"
Reports are current here that
Japan will now demand an indemnity
of between s5O0,0O0,000 and $780,
100000.
Paris. March 16.-The postpone.
ment of the Russian loan is definitely
confirmed This Is likely to exert
powerful influence towards peace, as it
is the first time the French financiers
have shown an indispositicn to ad.
vance funds while the uncertainties OF
war continue.
The following details of the post
ponement are from an authoritlve
source:
A committee representing the syndi-
cate of French underwriters went to
st. Petersburg to arrange the condi-
tons with the minister Of finance. and
a contract was drawn up for a $780,
100000 loan, taking the form Of treas
ury bonds running seven years at
per centum.
The contract was then brought back
to Paris for the approval OF all the un.
derwriters. In the meantime the dis
astrous events in Mancnuria naturally
aroused doubts on the part of the fl
nanciers as to whether Russia should
make peace or pursue the war. The
influence of the financial elements was
almost unanimous for peace. but Rus
sia's Discrimination to consider peace
appears to have induced the decision
not to proceed with the contract. and
accordingly, the signing Of which was
expected yesterday has been post
poned and all the pending negotiations
are also postponed.
According to the Russian view, this
does not mean that the negotiations
have been broken off, but merely that
they are adjourned, as the Russian au-
thorities say the syndicate holds itself
bound toward Russia now as before.
However. the circumstances of the ad-
t journment tend to show that the syn
| dictate inclines to wait for some def
mite development of peace before pro-
ceeding any further.
1t is authoritatively denied in the
highest Russian quarters that the
| French government exercised any
pressure towards preventing in the in
crease in French holdings in Russian
| securities. Nevertheless it is probable
! that some members of the government,
acting Individually, voiced the prevail
| ing view that caution was desirable.
