FIRING SOUTH OF TIE PASS.
Fear is Expressed that Rennenka1nff'.
Division Has Been Surrounded.

London, Marc1 21.-RuSsian official
circles IN London, although without Of
ftciaF news, are inclined to credit a EIar-
firing reported to have been heard yes
day morning about 7 miles south Of
Tie Pass, Within General Rennenu-
kempff's division. The dispatcln from
Hardin points OFT that the only expla-
ration of a cannonade in that locality
is THAT Rennenkampff has at length
arrived ait Tie Pass, where the Russian
armies were ordered ito rendezvous iii
case of retreat, but only to find tho
place occupied by the Japanese. on
sequently it is feared that Rennen-
kampff us surrounded.
