Toxic (By Cable).-The casualties
during the fighting at Chenchiehpao and
Heikoutai are estimated at 5000 on the
side of the Japanese and 10000 on the
Russian side
Russian activity on the Shakhe River
seemed to have ceased after the fights
at Chenchiehpao and Heikoutai, where
the Japanese were victorious The OBJ
iect of the operations is not clearly
understood here, but it is suggested
that the Russians either intended 10
turn the Japanese left and move heavy
force down west of the Lao river or
were seeking to divert attention from
some projected operation against the
Japanese right.
1t is reported that the weather is
warmer since January rs, but il is still
extremely cold so that it is impossible
to expose the troops at night
The Toxic press expressed the opin-
ion that General Kuropatkin either or
dered the movement to divert attention
from the domestic conditions in Rus
sia, or that he had planned to make 4
fight before Field Marshal Oyama had
been heavily reinforced.
There has been no great change in
the direction Of the right and centre
armies since the night OF January % ex-
cept constant collisions between recon
noitering parties In the direction OF
the left army the enemy keeps mp a
slow but constant cannonace.
The enemy's main body AT Chenchieh-
pao and Heikoutai seems to have re-
treated in the direction Of Neinyupao,
which is two miles west of Changtan

Philippine Sugar Tariff.

James d. Hill, speaking for the Lou
isiana sugar planters, before the House
Committee on Ways and Means in op-
position to the proposed reduction Of
tariff on sugar from the Philippines to
Is per cent. of the Dingley rates, said
in answer to questions, that the large
crops of last year after the Cuban reci-
procity act went into effect, were due to
the favorable conditions which prevailed,
and that the increased price of sugar
was due to the abolition of the cartel
system and the bounty fed sugar Of
Europe. He urged that the reduction
of tariff on Philippine sugar would in
crease the products of the island,
where sugar can be grown at much less
cost than in the United States.
