The Losses At Mukden.

II the dispatches from Manchuria
are to be believed then the battle OF
Mukden was the greatest and most
costly battle so far as the secrifice OF
human life Is concerned. which has ever
been known in modern warfare. 1t
may be that when later accounts Of the
battle reach us and official figures as
to the losses are given out. the totals
will not be 50 large: but on the other
hand 1t may prove. that they have been
larger than at first reported. for 1t Is
no unknown thing for commanders to
underestimate rather than over-esti-
mate their losses in the hope Of deceiv-
Ing and confusing the enemy as to the
true condition of things Accepting the
respective estimates Of the opposing
forces. 1t appears that fully 100000 men
were engaged in the struggle In and
around Mukden, and the report that the
losses aggregate one sixth of the num-
ber engaged Is not at all unreasonable
in view of the fierceness and long du-
ration of fighting. This means that the
total number Of Russians and Japan
ese lost in that battle reached a total
of about 10000 men. Some dispatches
put 1t higher. but very few put the
nunber lower.

the loss is comparable with that of Muk-

are in it is believed that Sedans loss
will have been surpassed by from 25.-

reach almost four times that of the bat
