SITUATION NOT CLEAR.
Some Doubt as to Whether Communi-
cations Were Cut.

st. Petersburg, March 9. $40 D. M
The general staff officers can furnish
no clear explanation of the exact sit
uatlon at Mukden. declining to make
public any details beyond those con-
tanned i'm the official dispatches. The
atmosphere of the war Office is intense
~ gloomy The officials admit that
General Kuropatkin has suffered a
bloody defeat, but they insist that it
IS not a decisive disaster. Their ex-

ais Kuropatlin and Sakharoff. report
ing hghting on The north front" is
that they refer TO Japanese attempts to
break through the Russian line SCREEN
ing the communicsti ons with Tie pass.
out the public regards it'as an acknowl-
edSment that General Nogi has already
severed the Russian line of commune
cations and enclosed at least a portion
OF General Chickering'S army. which
was bringing up the rear The dis
patches OF the Associated Press show
beyond doubt that General Nogi has
actually succeeded in reaching the rail-
road, although it was specifically af-
tirmed that the line was repaired and
reopened. 1t is possible that this tenn
porary interruption may have caused
the Toxic report.
The most important known develop
ment of the day is the report that a
flying Japanese column has appeared
northeast of Mukden and is heading
rapidly west This probably is part of
General kurokis army. which is MAX
ing a detour by forced marches and
swinging around to effect juncture
with General Nogi. If the maneuverS
succeed the net will be closed
It is said here that General Kuropat-
kin, with his headquarters. is now at
F'ankiatung station on the railroad ten
miles below Tie pass. The general
staff admits that the carnage in the
battle Will probably exceed anything
in modern warfare. although the staff
offices insist that the japanese must
have sustained the heaviest losses.
The Russians believe they surely will
reach &C. coo.
In addition to the eastern Chinese
railway and the Mandarin road it turns
out that the Russians have a narrow
suage railroad connecting Mukden
with Tie pass, over which to effect
their Withdrawal from their positions.
The city is full of TumOrS of whole
corps and divisions surrounded and
made prisoners. but neither the officials
nor private dispatches received confirm
these reports There is little excite

spectators, newSboys ScuTry along tae

Russian defeat and the war office is

it is, significant that Clado received or
ders TO return to st. Petersburg. Be
fore his departure clado published a
personal pamphlet in which he set
forth the imperative necessity for
strengthening RojestVenSky' squad
ron before the latter was compelled to
engage Admiral Togo. The captain
maintained that this required the
speedy concentration of third squad
ron and also adding the best ships of
the Black Sea fleet to RojestvenslSy' 5

Doubts are expressed in some quar-
ters here as TO whether Rojestvensky' s

There are too many Pattersons in

1t was the deadly fear of losing con-

shadows of uncertainty and gloom

The whole story is a warning to
both girls and parents, for girls never

and Nan. the youngest of five daugh-
