RETIREMENT is CERTAIN.
Blow to the Reform Movement in the
Expected Resignation of
Prince Mirsky,


st. Petersburg, Jan. 1.-THE Asso-
ciated Press is in a position to state
positively that Emperor Nicholas has
not as yet accepted Prince Syiatopolk-
Mirksy's resignation of the ministry Of
the interior. The minister has in
formed His Majesty of his desire to be
relieved of the Office because the i'm
perial reform program did not go far
enough to meet his views, but the en-
peror SO far has persuaded him to re-
main in the ministry.
Prince Syiatopolk-Mirksy' ritire-
ment soon, however, is regarded as
certain, and M. Witte apparently is
equally certain OF becoming the Bis
marck of Russia, despite the fact that
he is cordially hated as well as feared
at court. Even the emperor seems to
shrink from the influence of this
strong man, which is accepted as ac-
counting for his reluctance to give up
Prince Syiatopolk-Mirksy so long as
M Witte stands as the only alterna-
tive M. Witte's friends, however, do
not believe that he will accept the min
istry of the interior, being of the opiE-
ion that nothing less than the post of
chancellor, which would give him Of
fetal dignity as well as power, would
satisfy him if the emperor should call
him to the helm at the present crisis.

Toxic, Jan. 10. information which

situation around Mukden is a serious
one. It is feared that ii Kuropatl1in
attacks the Japanese position along
the Shakhe River he will court dis
aster, and that his further retreat will
mean the Generalization of his army.
This information goes on to say that
there is constant pickering at Rus

that the soldiers are discontented, dis

treats after the battle of Telisu Iva

Lao Yang when it was believed it was
possible to hold that place.
The climax came with the Russian
defeat at the battle of Shakhe River,
following Kuropatlin's strongly
Worded order directing the forward
movement, dated October 2. This de-
feat brought storm of criticism upon
the commander-in-chief and resulted
in discord among the officers.
Long 1nacJlOn, the lnIOfmallOn al

the Russian army, and it is pointed out
that recent skirmishes and outpost
brushes indicate that the Russian
soldiers are becoming disheartened. as
they do not show their former fighting
qualities.
