Horrifying Loss OF Life.
kilograms from the Russian side,
though inadequate az a basis for any
detailed estimates Of the Russian
losses, show that they are extremely
heavy, enough to cripple offensive OPP
eratlons for many months. General
Kuropatkin admits that $4,000 wounded
were carried off, but says nothing as
to how many killed, wounded and pris
oners were left behind. and from his
picture OF little handful of three Off
GERS and 100 men Of the imperial rifles
marching off, led by their gallant col
onel, cllnging to their standard, can be
derived some idea OF the losses sus-
tanned by the regiments that bore the
brunt OF the fighting. The exploit OF
the 600 at BalalSlaya pales beside this.
The Russian losses and those In the
"bloody angle" of the wilderness and
In the battle OF Antletam are scarcely
comparable.
